In the field of Arabic language and literature studies, there is a branch of science, called Balaghoh Science, whose topic of study is haqiqah and majaz as written in this article. Balaghoh science is one of the tools to comprehensively understand the Qur'an, Al-Hadith, Arabic texts or expressions, both from the perspective of lafadz and its meaning. In addition, this science is also closely related to other sciences, including ushul fiqh, tafsir, hadith, tasawwuf, and so on. Understanding haqiqah and majaz is very important in understanding Arabic texts and expressions, especially understanding the Qur'an and Al-Hadith. In Quranic studies, the concepts of haqiqah and majaz are closely related to the issue of ta'wil. Basically, haqiqi expressions do not require ta'wil, while majazi expressions require ta'wil, which is the transfer of outer meaning to inner meaning, namely the meaning behind the apparent, based on rational justifications, taking into account the context and linguistic rules. The writing in this article uses qualitative research methods with a literature study approach. The sources of data for this paper are taken from books, books, and other sources related to the discussion. This article tries to discuss briefly about haqiqah and majaz in relation to ta'wil. Therefore, some of the discussions review: the concept of haqiqah, majaz, and ta'wil; classification of haqiqah; classification of majaz; haqiqah and majaz in the problem of ta'wil; and haqiqah-majaz and ta'wil, between bayani and 'irfani.

Authors: Yew Sheng-Qian , Tan Kit-Aun , Mohd Nazan Ahmad Iqmer Nashriq , Abdul Manaf Rosliza
Published: December 2023

Introduction: Previous medication adherence studies primarily focused on the domains of non-adherence in hypertension treatment and less attention has been given on domains that encourage adherence to anti-hypertensive medications. The current study is aimed to identify the domains of adherence and non-adherence to anti-hypertensive medications among hypertensive patients in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Methods: Hypertensive patients from two public health clinics in Kuala Lumpur were invited for in-depth interviews until thematic saturation. Audio recordings from these interviews were transcribed verbatim. Transcripts were then analysed deductively with the guidance of the World Health Organization Medication Adherence Framework to extract the domains of adherence and non-adherence to anti-hypertensive medications. Results: Ten patients who were predominantly Malays and aged 34-73 years old participated the study. Patient-related (encompassing knowledge, attitude, belief and culture, lifestyle, personal barriers, self-efficacy, and cue to action), socioeconomic (encompassing social support), condition-related (encompassing nature of illness and presence of multiple co-morbidities), therapy-related (encompassing experience of receiving treatment, barrier in treatment, and side effects of treatment), and healthcare system (encompassing access to healthcare and healthcare center experience) domains were identified as central to the medication-taking behaviour of hypertensive patients. Conclusion: Sixteen codes of adherence and 22 codes of non-adherence to anti-hypertensive medications were identified, which were distributed across five domains (patient-related, socioeconomic, condition-related, therapy related, and healthcare system domains). These findings can help to inform future development of medication adherence questionnaires, individualised interventions for patients with adherence problems, and targeted health promotion programmes to reduce uncontrolled hypertension.

Introduction: Cancer patients’ perception on the treatment they received is vital to determine their adherence to cancer treatment, but important data on how this variable affects posttraumatic growth (PTG) experience by cancer patients is lacking. This cross-sectional study aimed to evaluate the degree of PTG among a cohort of head and neck cancer (HNC) survivors who were within first year of diagnosis and determined the association between perception of cancer treatment received (expectation and satisfaction with cancer treatment received and the feeling about the adverse effects) and PTG controlling for socio-demographic and clinical characteristics. Methods: HNC survivors were recruited from two oncology referral centres, and they were administered socio-demographic and clinical characteristics questionnaire, the Malay version of the Cancer Therapy Satisfaction Questionnaire (CTSQ) (to assess the satisfaction, expectation and feeling about the adverse effects of cancer treatment received) and the Malay version of the Posttraumatic Growth Inventory-Short Form (PTGi-SF) (to measure the degree of PTG). Results: A total of 200 HNC survivors participated in the study. The mean total PTGI-SF score was 39.5 (standard deviation [SD] = 9.3). Greater degree of positive expectation of cancer treatment and satisfaction with cancer treatment received significantly contributed to higher level of PTG, whereas feeling about side effects of treatment was not associated with PTG, after controlling for socio-demographic and clinical characteristics. Conclusion: Incorporating psychosocial interventions (such as education on cancer treatment and counselling) into the treatment regimen may facilitate development of PTG and hence, safeguard the mental well-being of HNC patients.

Methods: This is a cross-sectional study among medical students who had completed primary care medicine posting during the COVID-19 pandemic. Data on socio-demographic, posting characteristics, and students’ learning environment using the Dundee Ready Educational Environment Measure (DREEM) questionnaire and their objective structured clinical examination (OSCE) marks were collected. Independent t-test was used to compare DREEM scores between face-to-face and online groups. Multivariate analysis was used to determine factors associated with clinical competency and DREEM scores with p <0.05 considered significant. Results: A total of 205 students were recruited. Only 9.8% failed OSCE. Face-to-face teaching delivery (OR=3.61, 95 CI =1.03,11.30), face-to-face precept method (OR=1.24, 95 CI =1.12,12.51) and integrated curriculum (OR=5.23, 95 CI =1.03,26.47) were associated with good clinical competency. The total mean DREEM score was 72.94 (SD 28.8), with 89.3% having poor DREEM scores. Students who received face-to-face teaching scored higher in the Student’s Perceptions of Teacher domain compared to online teaching (p =0.036). Conclusion: Face-to-face teaching is preferred for good clinical competence and a learning environment. The impact of experiential learning was huge in our study, and it cannot be replaced by online learning. Furthermore, retraining teachers will improve the online learning experience for the students.

Introduction: Hypertension takes place of being one of the most concerning health issues, leading to increasing rate of death due to its complications. Pharmacological therapy diuretic become one to intervene on hypertension’s pathological sequences through sodium and potassium regulation. Similar diuretic effect can be achieved through fruits and vegetables crop including Okra fruit (Abelmoschus esculentus). Objective: to investigate the diuretic variance of different part of Okra fruit’s (Abelmoschus esculentus). Methods: In total of 8 groups of male Rattus norvegicus rats are sorted into control and intervention groups. As control, the C- Group (negative control group) was given Na- CMC 0.5% suspension, and C+ Group (positive control group) was given furosemide. The experimental groups P1, P2, and P3 were given Okra (Abelmoschus esculentus) whole fruit ethanolic extract; P4, P5, and P6 Group are were given Okra (Abelmoschus esculentus) seedless fruit ethanolic extract within range concentration of 75-300 mg/kg body weight. Urine volume is measured every hour for 6 hours and the 24th hour. Sodium and potassium measurements are executed towards 24-hour urine accumulation. Results: Single dose administration of Okra (Abelmoschus esculentus) fruit significantly increase 5th hour urine volume as compared to furosemide (p < 0.001). Whole fruit of Okra (Abelmoschus esculentus) compared to seedless fruit exhibit no significant increment of urine volume and electrolytes (p > 0.05). Conclusion: Ethanolic extract of Okra (Abelmoschus esculentus) fruit produce similar diuretic effect to furosemide. However, seedless Okra (Abelmoschus esculentus) fruit exerts a higher kaliuretic effect compared to whole fruit and furosemide.

Introduction: Lean sustainability has gained prominence in the health sector for operational and business advantages. However, understanding the link between lean and healthcare sustainability, especially in social and environmental aspects, remains limited. This study introduces a preliminary framework for measuring lean healthcare sustainability in hospitals. The framework aligns Critical Success Factors (CSFs) with sustainability objectives and business strategies to ensure successful and enduring lean deployment. Methods: The study was conducted among 52 Lean Agile Hospitals in Malaysia using a cross-sectional approach. The validated questionnaire was employed for data collection. A reliability test and Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) were also performed to assess and validate the framework using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 27. Results: The content validation was 0.9, which indicates that the instrument is sufficient to measure the research objective. The data screening test was performed to eliminate problem observation. The overall reliability value was over 0.830 which depicts data consistency and stability. The Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin exceeded 0.6, Bartlett’s test was under 0.001 and factor loading was between 0.507 to 0.948, thus indicating a significant correlation matrix among at least some of the variables. Therefore, the latent factors were significant to specific items of the research. Conclusion: It is concluded that important CSF is aligned with the strategic level influence of lean deployment in healthcare, which has a specific impact on certain sustainability performance. Thus, this paper proposed a generic preliminary framework to measure lean healthcare sustainability.

Introduction: Cardiovascular diseases, particularly coronary heart disease (CHD), are the third biggest cause of mortality worldwide, and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is one of the available treatments. The patient’s self-efficacy in performing self-care decreases as a result of several post-PCI hurdles, which has an effect on their quality of life. The purpose of this investigation was to explore the barriers that patients experience following PCI. Methods: The study design used was descriptive qualitative in 15 patients after PCI. Purposive sampling was used to conduct the participant recruitment process. Between June 2021 and January 2022, data were collected using a semi-structured interviewing method. The data were analysed through the use of thematic content analysis. Results: The thematic content analysis found four themes: 1) Perceived physical barriers; 2) Perceived psychological barriers; 3) Low adherence; 4) The adverse side effects of medications. Conclusion: The results of this study highlight the value of empowering patients to take care of themselves at home following PCI and assisting in the creation of holistic and continuity nurse intervention models.

Introduction: COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the livelihood of Malaysians and gardening activities have contributed positively to the diet quality. This study aimed to determine the factors associated with diet quality among adults in AU2 Keramat, Kuala Lumpur. Methods: The cross-sectional study involved adults aged 18 to 59 via convenience sampling. The socio-demographic, physical activity level and involvement status in gardening were obtained through a questionnaire, while food intake was from a single-day 24-hour diet recall. The diet quality was determined through Malaysian Healthy Eating Index (MHEI) and dietary misreporting was calculated using the Goldberg cut-off method. Results: A total of 117 respondents (65.8% females, 35.2% males) with a mean age of 40.98 were involved in this study. Findings showed that most respondents did not engage in gardening activities (72.6%) and the prevalence of poor diet quality in this study was 89.7%, with a mean score of 44.51. The older respondents (r= 0.20, p= 0.034) and community gardeners (t= -2.63, p= 0.011) had a significantly higher diet quality but not home gardeners (t= 0.12, p= 0.902). The respondents involved in gardening activity also had a significantly higher fruit serving intake, Mann-Whitney U= 1045.00, p= 0.036) and lower total fat intake (t= 2.27, p= 0.025). Conclusion: The diet quality of the respondents remains poor but community gardeners had significantly higher diet quality and fruit intake while lower total fat intake. Interventions need to be developed to address the persistent poor diet quality of adults in the community.

Introduction: Calorie restriction is the main strategy for loosing body weight in obese individuals. However, persistence to this strategy is a major challenge. Ghrelin, a hormone that influences an individual to consume food by modulating the feelings of hunger. This effect may be influenced by the % fat composition of a meal. Materials and Methods: Twelve young male participants with normal BMI, were administered in random order one of 2 isocaloric meals after an overnight fast. The 2 meals contained either 31 or 52% fat. After a 7 day gap, cross-over of the participants was carried out and they consumed the other meal similarly. Ghrelin levels were measured after fasting and 1 hour after diet consumption. An appetite rating on a visual analogue scale (VAS) was used to measure perceived hunger and satiety before and after the meal. Results: When compared to the baseline values, an average of 34% and 20% decrease in ghrelin levels were noted after the high-fat meal (p<0.025), and low-fat meal respectively. Analysis of the VAS showed that feelings of hunger decreased, while feelings of satiety increased after the meal, however there was no difference between the two meals. Conclusion: Thus, within this study group, though the feelings of hunger and satiety was comparable, consumption of isocaloric high fat caused ghrelin levels to decrease within one hour post meal. This shows that manipulation of % fat of the diet can achieve lower post-meal ghrelin levels.
