The aims of this research are to identify the factors that cause human trafficking, to describe the map of origin region and destination of delivery, to analyze the modes used by the traffickers. The method used is the Qualitative Descriptive Method. The results showed that there were seven main factors causing human trafficking in North Sulawesi. Those were lifestyle, lack of knowledge and capacity, potential employability as commercial sex workers, demand of commercial sex workers, youth marriage and limited employment in formal sectors and secullarism. Most of the victims came from Manado City, Minahasa, South Minahasa and North Minahasa Regency. The largest destination areas of the victims were Papua, West Papua, Southeast Sulawesi and Batam (the Province of Riau Islands). The modes used by the perpetrators are persuading victims to work outside the area with high incomes, cheated with debt bondage, offering scholarship programs, adopted as children, fraudulent and abducting. The efforts that need to be done to eliminate human trafficking are changing the lifestyles from consumptive to productive by increasing self-resilience (changing the paradigm of thinking to be realistic and not regarding material wealth as a source of self-esteem or avoiding hedonism) and improving self-capacity through continuous knowledge enhancement. Local governments need to enlighten the publics through various programs/activities such as socialization with emphasis on human trafficking modes, to train of members of the task force on prevention of human traffics, to cooperate and to form partnerships with other institutions and local/regional governments, to build cooperation on the prevention and handling of human traffics with non-government institutions, to break the links of sexual trafficking and other types of unlawful businesses, to prevent young marriages to stimulate job creations, especially in the formal sectors and to increase the roles of parents and education institutions

El metabolismo y función de la hormona tiroidea se modifica con el envejecimiento. Los rangos de referencia para las hormonas tiroideas, derivan de poblaciones más jóvenes. Con estos rangos, la prevalencia de la disfunción tiroidea subclínica es mayor en los ancianos. Existe controversia en el tratamiento de adultos mayores con enfermedad subclínica. El objetivo de este trabajo es describir la prevalencia de disfunción tiroidea en adultos mayores de la consulta externa de medicina interna en un periodo de tres meses. MATERIALES Y METODOS Estudio de corte transversal realizado en un hospital Universitario. Participaron pacientes de 60 años o más. A todos se les diligenció un cuestionario que incluye el índice de Wayne y el puntaje de Zulewski. Se solicitaron los niveles de TSH y T4 libre. Posteriormente, se contactó telefónicamente a cada paciente para registrar los resultados. Se consideraron los puntos de corte para diagnóstico propuestos por el Task Force. 2015. RESULTADOS: Ingresaron 93 personas, 57% mujeres. La prevalencia global de la disfunción tiroidea fue del 47%, 12% tenían hipotiroidismo. Se encontraron dos casos de hipertiroidismo subclínico, ninguno de hipertiroidismo manifiesto. El 32% recibían suplencia hormonal con levotiroxina. El 66% de los pacientes que recibían suplencia no estaban controlados. El acuerdo más allá del azar entre las escalas clínicas y el diagnóstico a partir de laboratorios fue nulo. CONCLUSIÓN: Es alta la prevalencia de disfunción tiroidea, se requieren más estudios con estandarización en las herramientas diagnósticas, para definir puntos de corte de diagnóstico y tratamiento en estos pacientes.

This article reviews the President’s Task Force on 21st Century Policing (hereafter President’s Task Force) findings on law enforcement field training. The President’s Task Force was critical of the San Jose Police Department Field Training Model (hereafter the San Jose Model), the most common model used by law enforcement agencies within the United States. These criticisms were the impetus for an assessment of the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (WDNR) Law Enforcement Field Training Program which was based on the San Jose Model. The WDNR employs conservation wardens who primarily enforce wildlife, environmental, and recreational vehicle laws. This study evaluates the strengths and weaknesses of the WDNR field training program through surveys of the perceptions and experiences of the field training officers, recruit conservation wardens, and warden supervisors. These findings also permit analysis regarding the criticisms identified by the President’s Task Force. The author found very little existing research pertaining to field training programs and little existing research on conservation law enforcement. The findings of this study persuaded command staff within the WDNR to follow the recommendations of the President’s Task Force and adopt the Police Training Officer (PTO) Model because it incorporated adult learning concepts, problem-based learning, and was more focused on community policing. Practical applications for other agencies are discussed and needs for future empirical research related to law enforcement field training are identified.
