Published: December 2024

Perkembangan tafsir al-Qur’an meliputi penafsiran makna yang terkandung dalam al-Qur’an, sekaligus penerapan maupun kontekstualisasinya dalam kehidupan sehari-hari. Produk tafsir al-Qur’an yang dihasilkan oleh mufassir, tidak selamanya sama atau selaras antara satu sama lain. Keahlian, kecenderungan dan metode yang digunakan oleh mufassir, menjadi beberapa faktor utama penyebab terjadinya perbedaan penafsiran. al-Dakhi>l dalam istilah mufassir, merupakan tafsir atau penafsiran yang tidak memiliki asal
 
sedikitpun dalam agama, dengan tujuan merusak kandungan al-Qur’an. Oleh sebab itu, ilmu al-dakhi>l dibutuhkan untuk membersihkan dan menstrelisasi al-Qur’an dari hal-hal yang bukan sebenarnya dari al-Qur’an. Penelitian ini akan menguraikan mengenai al-dakhi>l yang dilakukan salah satu mufassir beraliran Mu’tazilah yaitu al-Zamakhsyari. Model penelitian yang digunakan, yaitu penelitian kualitatif dengan menerapkan jenis penelitian kepustakaan (library research). Hasil penelitian ini menunjukan bahwa ada beberapa penafsiran al-Zamakhsyari terhadap ayat-ayat al-Qur’an termasuk ke dalam al-dakhi>l. Aliran Mu’tazilah sebagai keyakinan al-Zamakhsyari, menjadi salah satu faktor berpengaruh pada penafsirannya. Hal tersebut dapat diperhatikan pada beberapa penafsiran al-Zamakhsyari yang tidak terlepas dari ideologi keyakinan yang dimilikinya. Ideologi aliran Mu’tazilah antara lain peniadaan sifat Tuhan, keadilan Tuhan, janji dan ancaman, tempat di antara dua tempat dan perintah melaksanakan perbuatan baik dan larangan perbuatan munkar.

Authors: Lin Yuyin , Thienmongkol Ratanachote , Xiang Aolin
Published: December 2024

Molan, an intangible cultural heritage of the Zhuang nationality in China, faces a crisis due to traditional communication and inheritance models. In the digital era, leveraging advanced digital technology is crucial for revitalizing this ancient heritage. From a communication theory perspective, this paper uses field investigation and applies the classic 5W communication model by Lasswell to deeply analyze the crisis facing Molan culture. Integrating the media evolution theory of Levinson, it explores the benefits and methodologies of digital dissemination for ancient intangible cultural heritage and proposes a digital communication model. The paper emphasizes adopting the PGC (Professional Generated Content) + UGC (User Generated Content) production model and strictly adhering to the “Content is King” principle. It advocates for models such as “Social Media + Molan,” “Short Video + Molan,” and “Algorithm + Molan” to enhance communication effectiveness. These viewpoints aim to revitalize and preserve Molan culture in the digital age.

Published: December 2024

A previously healthy 32-year-old male patient was admitted to hospital with malaise, dyspnea, anemia, thrombocytopenia, and leukopenia. Anemia and thrombocytopenia worsened during the third week. Considering the possible need for transfusion, routine ABO and D typing and an antibody detection test were performed. Antibody detection test was positive, necessitating fur ther immunohematologic investigation that revealed an antibody with Kell-related specificity and suppression/alteration of several high-prevalence Kell blood group system antigens. Autocontrols and direct antiglobulin tests (DATs) were negative in several samples during the disease course. Sequencing of the patient’s KEL and XK genes did not reveal any mutations. Initial tentative diagnosis was myeloid neoplasm based on dyserythropoiesis in the bone marrow smear and no obvious biochemical signs of hemolysis. Azacitidine treatment was initiated, accordingly, but had to be interrupted when the patient’s hemoglobin (Hb) dropped to 4.6 g/dL in 3 days, and he experienced more severe anemia symptoms (fatigue, nausea, and heart palpitations). Platelet concentrates, and 3 very rare Kellnull packed RBC concentrates, imported from abroad, were transfused. However, no increase in Hb was achieved. Platelet autoantibodies were not detected. Suspecting an autoimmune etiology, intravenous immunoglobulin and high-dose glucocorticoids were given. The patient responded to the latter treatment; he felt much better and regained his daily activity, and his Hb value and platelet count normalized on day 45. The steroid dose was tapered during the next 6 months until it was discontinued. His RBCs had normal Kell antigen expression, and the antibody was undetectable on day 105. Therefore, we concluded that an autoimmune etiology was the most plausible cause for the patient’s condition despite a negative DAT. The immunohematologic investigation showed disease-related transient loss and/or alteration of several Kell system high-prevalence antigens and a Kell-related antibody that appeared to recognize a unique high-prevalence Kell antigen with a not-yet fully defined epitope.
Physical, Rheological and Nutritional Properties of Plant-Based Frozen Dessert
Authors: Zagorska Jelena , Stamere Bella Laura , Galoburda Ruta , Ciprovica Inga , Strausa Evita
Published: December 2024

The objective of the current study was to create a frozen dessert with reduced fat and sugar content, using plant-based ingredients and to evaluate its physical, rheological and nutritional properties. The dessert formulations were developed using plant-based ingredients such as sweet potatoes, potatoes, carrots, and beetroot, combined with date sugar, corn starch and skimmed milk powder. Chemical analysis showed that the sweet potato (SP) sample had the highest energy value due to its carbohydrate and fat content, while the carrot (CR) sample had the lowest. Rheology tests revealed that beetroot-based (BR) samples exhibited the highest viscosity, likely due to the high dietary fibre content in beetroots, while the CR sample was the most fluid, attributed to its lower solids content.

The study showed that air bubble size influenced texture and melt behaviour. The overrun, a measure of air incorporation, was highest in the BR sample, contributing to a lighter texture. The hardness of the desserts was influenced by solid content and ingredient composition, with the CR sample being the hardest. Melting rate analysis revealed that all samples melted slowly, with the SP, SPP (sweet potato + potato), and BR samples melting uniformly over time. Overall, the study demonstrated that plant-based ingredients could effectively replace traditional high-fat animal-based ingredients, yielding frozen desserts with favourable nutritional profiles, acceptable rheological properties, and desirable physical characteristics.

The utilization of teaching materials plays a vital role in achieving educational objectives, especially in fostering CTS crucial for students to meet global challenges and solve complex problems. This study focuses on 5th-semester biology students enrolled in the Anatomy and Physiology of the Human Body (ANFISMAN) course. A quantitative approach is employed, utilizing a quasi-experimental Pretest-Post test control group design. Critical thinking levels are measured through structured essay assessments, comprising ten questions aligned with five critical thinking indicators: focus, reasoning, organization, prevalence, and integration. In the first phase, students’ understanding of the concepts is gauged, targeting comprehension in the context of critical thinking evaluation. The second phase assesses their ability to provide logical reasons for problem-solving, supported by factual evidence. The third phase examines students' skills in synthesizing conclusions, while the fourth phase evaluates their adherence to standard grammatical conventions. Finally, the fifth phase assesses the accuracy and clarity of responses, ensuring comprehensive evaluation based on evidence. The study sampled 48 students and revealed that teaching materials significantly enhanced CTS development, as demonstrated by a t-test significance value of 0.000, which is markedly below the 0.05 threshold. This indicates a notable difference in critical thinking outcomes between students using modified inquiry-based teaching materials and those who did not. Furthermore, the experimental group achieved a higher average N-Gain value of 0.4133 compared to the control group's 0.3828. These results highlight the effectiveness of well-structured teaching materials in fostering critical thinking within the ANFISMAN course, emphasizing in advancing biology education.

This study focuses on creating and assessing the quality of Weebly learning media, utilizing a flipped classroom approach and teams games tournament for teaching petroleum content. The method applied in this study is Research and Development, by using the ADDIE (analysis, design, development, implementatio, evaluation) model. However, in this study the implementation stage was not carried out. The study's participants included three peer reviewers, a material expert validator, a media expert validator, five chemistry teachers from high schools, and thirteen high school students. Data was gathered using a questionnaire, which an instrument specialist had validated. The data obtained were analyzed descriptively qualitatively and descriptively quantitatively. The results of this study showed positive results with a material expert assessment score of 94.11% (very good), a media expert assessment of 85.96% (very good), a reviewer score of 94.56% (very good) and a respondent score of 94.87%. This study demonstrates that the developed learning media is of high quality and effectively supports chemistry education in schools, particularly on petroleum topics.

The knowledge transfer of chemistry with unfamiliar topics may cause students to struggle to understand it. Conversely, if the concepts learned are associated with local wisdom through project assignments, it will produce meaningful learning. This study aims to analyze: the activities, learning outcomes, and students' and teachers’ responses to the ethnoscience-PjBL learning model. The research type is descriptive with a qualitative approach. The research subjects were 21 students of class XI-MIPA. Data collection techniques used were activity observation, tests, and students’ and teachers’ questionnaires. The research instruments included activity observation sheets, test sheets, and learner’s and teacher’s questionnaire sheets. The data was analyzed by using the percentage formula. The results showed that: (1) giving questions or problems step obtained an average percentage of 91.6%. The planning step, setting the work schedule, and monitoring the project gained an average percentage of 100%. The product assessment step obtained an average percentage of 82%. The project evaluation step obtained an average percentage of 62.5% in the application of the PjBL model, (2) the student’s learning outcomes reached an average score of 83.4, and (3) it received a positive response from students and teachers with an average percentage of 83.2% and 94% respectively. To conclude the application of the ethnoscience-laden PjBL model on colloid received positive responses and the completeness of learning outcomes reached a percentage of 100%
Stability analysis on yield of several winged bean lines (Psophocarpus tetragonolobus L.) in three environments

Winged bean is a plant with a high seed protein content equivalent to soybeans. Indonesia is one of the central origins in southern Asia. However, there are still only a few superior varieties that can be widely cultivated. One effort to increase productivity is by growing improved varieties. This study aimed to identify promising winged bean lines with high and stable yield potential. The experiment was conducted in three environments, i.e., two planting seasons in Bogor and one in Palembang from January 2019 to June 2020. A total of 11 winged bean genotypes were tested and observed for grain yield characters. Parametric analysis methods were used to obtain information on the stability of 11 winged bean genotypes across the three environments. Grain yield was significantly affected by G x E interaction and, therefore, was subjected to stability analyses. Genotypes H1(P), L2, and H4(P) were classified as stable. This genotype had similar characteristics with stable grain yield in three test environments.
Keywords: G x E interaction; seed yield; parametric stability, underutilized legume

Las numerosas publicaciones científicas relacionadas con el uso de plantas por el pueblo urarina evidencian un conocimiento arraigado y valioso. Sin embargo, carece de una revisión integral que abarque este vasto conocimiento botánico. En ese sentido, nuestro objetivo fue conocer la diversidad de plantas usadas por los urarinas en el departamento de Loreto (Perú). Para ello, realizamos una revisión bibliográfica minuciosa de publicaciones científicas, donde encontramos 17 publicaciones con datos de uso de plantas relacionados con el pueblo urarina. Registramos 196 especies de plantas con flores incluidas en 56 familias. Las palmeras (Arecaceae) destacan como la familia con mayor variedad de usos, siendo diez las especies representativas: Iriartea deltoidea, Bactris gasipaes, Mauritia flexuosa, Oenocarpus bataua, Euterpe precatoria, Socratea exorrhiza, Oenocarpus mapora, Attalea phalerata, Elaeis oleifera y Phytelephas tenuicaulis. Este hallazgo resalta la importancia cultural de las palmeras en las prácticas tradicionales urarinas; además, proporciona una base sólida para futuras investigaciones etnobotánicas y estrategias de conservación.
