Implications for Clinical Practice, Mechanisms, and Efficacy of Ageratum conyzoides Leaf Extracts in Streptozotocin-Induced Diabetes Rats: An Investigation into Their Antidiabetic, Hypolipidemic, and Antiatherogenic Activities
Authors:   Faculty of Biological Sciences Kampala International University Uganda, Bizimana Rukundo T.
Published: October 2024

Ageratum conyzoides, a perennial herb native to tropical and subtropical regions, has been utilized in traditional medicine for centuries due to its diverse therapeutic properties. This review consolidates current research on the antidiabetic, hypolipidemic, and antiatherogenic effects of Ageratum conyzoides leaf extracts, specifically in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rat models. The review explores the plant’s potential mechanisms of action, including enhancement of insulin sensitivity, improvement of lipid profiles, and reduction of atherosclerotic plaque formation. Ageratum conyzoides extracts have demonstrated significant antidiabetic effects by lowering blood glucose levels, enhancing insulin secretion, and improving insulin sensitivity. They also exhibit hypolipidemic effects by reducing total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, and triglycerides, while increasing HDL cholesterol. Additionally, these extracts show antiatherogenic properties by inhibiting plaque formation and reducing oxidative stress, thereby supporting cardiovascular health. The review examines the pharmacokinetics and bioavailability of Ageratum conyzoides bioactive compounds, emphasizing the need for further research to optimize their therapeutic potential. Comparative studies highlight its efficacy relative to other natural remedies and pharmaceuticals, noting its favorable safety profile. The review underscores the importance of integrating Ageratum conyzoides into both traditional and modern medicine practices and explores its role in dietary supplements and functional foods. Ongoing translational research and clinical trials are essential to validate the efficacy and safety of these extracts for broader clinical application. Keywords: Ageratum conyzoides, Leaf Extracts, Streptozotocin, Diabetes, Rats
Healthcare Concern: The High Rate of Diabetes in Southeastern Nigeria
Authors:   School of Natural and Applied Sciences Kampala International University Uganda, Wairimu G. Mwende
Published: October 2024

Diabetes mellitus is an escalating public health crisis globally, and its impact is profoundly felt in Southeastern Nigeria, where the prevalence of diabetes stands at approximately 24%, significantly higher than both national and global averages. This review examines the epidemiology, risk factors, health impacts, and management challenges associated with diabetes in this region. Key contributors to the high diabetes rates in Southeastern Nigeria include genetic predispositions, rapid urbanization, lifestyle changes, and socioeconomic disparities. The health implications of diabetes are severe, encompassing complications such as neuropathy, nephropathy, and cardiovascular disease, which lead to a diminished quality of life and increased mortality. Challenges in managing diabetes are compounded by inadequate healthcare infrastructure, limited access to specialized care, and cultural factors influencing treatment adherence. Effective strategies for diabetes management in Southeastern Nigeria require comprehensive public health interventions, enhanced healthcare infrastructure, and culturally tailored educational programs. Future research should focus on filling gaps in epidemiological data, understanding rural healthcare barriers, and evaluating the effectiveness of targeted interventions. A collaborative approach involving government, healthcare providers, and communities is crucial for mitigating the diabetes burden and improving health outcomes in the region. Keywords: Diabetes mellitus, Southeastern Nigeria, epidemiology, risk factors, healthcare challenges, public health interventions.

O reconhecimento do território é uma técnica que associa a compreensão do ambiente e as condições de vida das pessoas que estão inseridas nele. Deve a Atenção Primária à Saúde (APS), ter clareza da caraterização dos usuários nesse território. O objetivo desta revisão foi identificar, a partir das literaturas encontradas, as discussões que permeiam essa temática, elucidando os conceitos de territorialização em saúde na organização da oferta dos serviços. Este estudo tem um caráter descritivo exploratório do tipo revisão bibliográfica, com levantamento realizado nas bases de dados Literatura Latino Americana e Caribe em Ciências da Saúde – LILACS e Scientific Electronic Library Online – SCIELLO BRASIL. A literatura retrata de maneira que o reconhecimento do território de saúde não é uma necessidade apenas dos profissionais, mas também da população. A intenção do redimensionamento e territorialização não trabalha na perspectiva de separação de classes socais, e sim em entender sua estrutura espacial, as situações socioeconômicas, culturais, condições de educação e lazer, bem como todos os aspectos estabelecidos como condicionantes e determinantes de saúde.

Tren dan Isu Ekonomi Islam: Sistemik Literatur Review
Authors: Iswandi Andi
Published: October 2024

This study explores the trend of Islamic economics research through a systematic review of the literature to understand the contributions and developments in this field in the context of sustainable and inclusive development. The trend of Islamic economics research has shown a significant increase in recent years, especially considering the dynamics of the ever-evolving global economy. Various studies have shown that the Islamic economic system has great potential in supporting sustainable and inclusive development in various countries, especially Muslim-majority countries. This study uses a qualitative approach with a literature review method to collect, identify, and analyze various findings from previous studies. The data used comes from scientific articles published in reputable journals between 2020 and 2024. Bibliometric analysis using VOSviewer shows the existence of three main clusters in Islamic economics research covering topics such as Islamic finance, Islamic banking, and design methodology in Islamic finance. This study found that the number of articles and citations related to Islamic economics indexed in Scopus fluctuated with a peak of articles in 2018 and 2021 and a peak of citations in 2018. Geographically, this study shows that countries such as the United States, Malaysia, the United Kingdom, and Indonesia are major contributors to Islamic economics research. The conclusion of this study shows that the Islamic economic system has great potential to support sustainable and inclusive development, but further research is needed to overcome challenges and expand its application in the context of a modern economy.
Analisis Yuridis Kontrak Sewa Menyewa atau Jual Beli Akun Bisnis E-Commerce di Indonesia
Authors: Pratama Dito Alif , Nasution Rachmad Saleh
Published: October 2024

This research examines the legal and economic impacts of the practice of renting e-commerce business accounts from a legal and sharia perspective. The analysis shows that the current legal regulations have not fully accommodated the complexity of this practice. Although the ITE Law and regulations related to electronic transactions provide a basic framework, the lack of specifications regarding account renting causes legal uncertainty for both renters and account owners. Renters face the risk of breach of contract and legal issues related to the use of other parties' identities, while account owners may lose control over their account activities and face legal consequences from the renter's actions. Many business actors ignore or do not fully comply with regulations due to the lack of effective and clear law enforcement. From an economic perspective, renting e-commerce business accounts offers significant benefits to both parties. Renters can access a wider market and increase the credibility of their business, while account owners earn passive income from rental fees. However, the risk of financial loss remains if the rented account experiences problems or is blocked by the e-commerce platform. Account owners also risk losing income if their accounts are blocked due to violations by renters. The views of Islamic economic scholars emphasize honesty and fairness in transactions, avoiding uncertainty (gharar). The Hadith prohibits buying and selling that contains gharar (HR. Muslim). Regulations such as the ITE Law and the Consumer Protection Law also prohibit illegal access and misleading transactions. This study highlights the importance of more specific regulations and stronger legal protection. Compliance with regulations needs to be improved, and clear contracts and financial protection mechanisms must be established to manage risks. Thus, the practice of renting e-commerce business accounts can run more safely and efficiently, providing optimal economic benefits for all parties involved.

These issues include unclear regulations, inconsistent policies, and lack of synergy between related institutions, which hamper the effectiveness of sharia supervision. This study aims to identify the main challenges in zakat management, analyze possible solutions, and provide policy recommendations to improve the effectiveness of sharia supervision and zakat management in Indonesia. The research method used is a qualitative approach with documentation study techniques and critical analysis. Data were collected from literature, annual reports, official documents, and related regulations such as the Zakat Law, Minister of Religious Affairs regulations, and Baznas regulations. Analysis was conducted to evaluate issues in regulations, DPS competency, and support from zakat institutions. This study found that the main challenges lie in the interpretation of regulations, inconsistent implementation, and lack of coordination between zakat institutions. Recommended solutions include revising regulations to improve legal clarity, collaborating with external parties to enrich supervision, and implementing modern technology for monitoring efficiency. Recommendations for the government and Baznas include strengthening the capacity and independence of the Sharia Supervisory Board (DPS), as well as increasing transparency through technology. The implementation of these recommendations is expected to increase the effectiveness of zakat management and its benefits for the community.

Since this crime is closely related to cybercrimes, and given the novelty and significant evolution of cybercrimes in the modern era with the development and spread of the Internet, the threat of cybercrimes in various forms and types has increased. This has led to a concerted international effort to combat these crimes and address their infiltration and spread in all countries of the world. The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has made intensive efforts to combat cybercrimes and has worked on developing legislative systems to keep pace with methods of combating all cybercrimes. The study adopted an analytical approach to the texts of the Saudi Anti-Cyber Crime Law, as well as a comparative approach to similar laws and legislative systems, aiming to reach conclusions and recommendations related to the study. The research addressed the extent of the development of legislative systems and the efforts made to combat cybercrimes at the international level in general and in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in particular. The research then discussed the definition of the crime of unauthorized access to information systems by dividing the study into two main sections. The first section focused on the development of legislative systems in combating cybercrimes, which the study addressed through two subsections: the first subsection provided an overview of international efforts to combat cybercrimes, and the second subsection discussed the development of the efforts of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in combating cybercrimes.

Authors: Eki Wulan Agustin  , Mad Zaini  , Komarudin
Published: October 2024

Overseas students are students who are studying outside their area of ​​origin. Some overseas students tend to experience homesickness because they miss their parents and hometown, so they need support from their environment. Social support is information and feedback from other people that shows that someone is loved and cared for, appreciated and respected and is involved in a network of reciprocal communication and obligations.  Quantitative research with a cross-sectional approach.

Fragmented Memory and Resonances of the Traumas of the Holocaust and War in the Novels of Patrick Modiano
Authors: Amir Oussama
Published: October 2024

The 20th century marked a peak in trauma phenomena, largely driven by numerous wars and catastrophes that had devastating effects on both individual and collective identities. The identity void created by unconscious defense mechanisms emerged as a significant issue, resulting in fragmented narratives, disjointed identities, and broken relationships. Literature has consistently served as a crucial witness to these events, representing, expressing, and critiquing them. This study explores the intricate connections between trauma and literature through the lens of psychoanalytic theories of trauma, focusing on how Patrick Modiano, through his narratives marked by wandering and amnesia, addresses the memory and identity issues linked to trauma. This analysis highlights how Modiano's distinctive writing articulates the unspeakable while interrogating the possibilities and limitations of literary representation. The central question of this article examines how Modiano's oeuvre responds to the challenges posed by trauma, reconfiguring the relationships between personal history and collective memory, individual memory and cultural memory.
Le XXe siècle a été caractérisé par une apogée du phénomène du traumatisme, largement alimenté par de nombreuses guerres et catastrophes ayant eu des conséquences dévastatrices sur les identités individuelles et collectives. Le vide identitaire engendré par les mécanismes de défense inconscients est devenu un problème majeur, entraînant des récits fragmentés, des identités disloquées et des relations brisées. La littérature a toujours été un témoin crucial de ces événements, les représentant, les exprimant et les critiquant. Cette étude explore les connexions complexes entre le traumatisme et la littérature à travers le prisme des théories psychanalytiques du trauma, en se concentrant sur la manière dont Patrick Modiano, à travers ses récits marqués par l'errance et l'amnésie, aborde les enjeux mémoriels et identitaires liés au traumatisme. Cette analyse met en lumière comment l'écriture singulière de Modiano permet de figurer l'indicible tout en interrogeant les possibilités et les limites de la représentation littéraire. La question centrale de cet article interroge comment l'œuvre de Modiano répond aux défis posés par le traumatisme, en reconfigurant les relations entre histoire personnelle et mémoire collective, mémoire individuelle et mémoire culturelle.

Les répercussions de la COVID-19 : Les mères réfugiées ou nouvellement établies au Canada – Rapport final
Authors: Battams Nathan , Hilbrecht Margo
Published: October 2024

De plus en plus d’études tendent à démontrer que la pandémie de COVID-19 a des répercussions inégales sur la santé, le bien-être et les finances des différents types de familles. Or, les nouveaux arrivants et les réfugiés, qui sont souvent confrontés à des situations difficiles, semblent être particulièrement vulnérables au moment de s’établir au pays pour y bâtir une nouvelle vie. Au printemps 2021, l’Institut Vanier de la famille s’est associé au Mothers Matter Centre afin d’étudier les répercussions de la pandémie sur les mères réfugiées ou nouvellement établies au pays qui étaient inscrites aux programmes offerts par le Centre, dans le cadre du sondage « Les répercussions de la COVID-19 : Les mères réfugiées ou nouvellement établies au Canada ». Le Mothers Matter Centre est un organisme national sans but lucratif qui propose des programmes de soutien aux mères isolées sur le plan social et socioéconomiquement vulnérables, ainsi qu’à leur famille. Les conclusions du sondage – réalisé du 13 avril au 13 mai 2021, dont les données ont été analysées par l’Association d’études canadiennes – donnent un aperçu des répercussions de la pandémie sur la santé et le bien-être, sur le travail et les finances des ménages, ainsi que sur les relations des mères inscrites aux programmes HIPPY (Home Instruction for Parents of Preschool Youngsters – Enseignement à domicile pour les parents d’enfants d’âge préscolaire), SMART (Supporting Mothers and Raising Toddlers – Soutien aux mères et à l’éducation des enfants en bas âge) et BTL (Bond to Literacy – Lien vers l’alphabétisation) du Mothers Matter Centre.
A Snapshot of Women, Work and Family in Canada
Authors: Battams Nathan
Published: October 2024

Canada is home to more than 18 million women (9.8 million of whom are mothers), many of whom fulfill multiple responsibilities at home, at work and in the community. Over many generations, women in Canada have had diverse employment experiences that continue to evolve and change. These experiences have differed significantly from those of men, and there is a great deal of diversity in the experiences among women, which are impacted by a variety of factors including (but not limited to) cultural norms and expectations, family status, disability and a variety of demographic characteristics. To explore the diverse and evolving work and family experiences of women in Canada, the Vanier Institute of the Family has created A Snapshot of Women, Work and Family in Canada. This publication is a companion piece to our Fifty Years of Women, Work and Family in Canada timeline, providing visually engaging data about the diverse work and family experiences of women across Canada.
A Snapshot of Population Aging and Intergenerational Relationships in Canada
Authors: Battams Nathan
Published: October 2024

Canada’s population is aging rapidly, with a higher share of seniors than ever before. While this can present some societal challenges, it also provides growing opportunities for intergenerational relationships, since younger people have a greater likelihood of having more seniors and elders in their lives. Population aging has an impact not only on family relationships, but also on the social, economic, cultural and environmental contexts in which families live. Using new statistics from the 2016 Census, A Snapshot of Population Aging and Intergenerational Relationships in Canada explores the evolving demographic landscape across the country through a family lens. As the data shows, Canadians are getting older, and “seniorhood” is a growing life stage – a time when many of our parents, grandparents and great-grandparents are continuing to play important roles in our families, workplaces and communities.

Rapid technological advancements have led to a surge in the number of startups competing with innovative ideas. Predicting the chances of a startup's future success becomes crucial for entrepreneurs in making informed decisions and strategizing their growth. This study investigates the effectiveness of the Gradient Boosting classification algorithm in predicting startup success. To address potential class imbalance within the dataset, a pre-processing step utilizing Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique (SMOTE) was employed. The dataset itself encompassed a wide range of variables related to startup attributes and performance metrics. The F1-score metric was utilized to evaluate the model's accuracy while minimizing false positive predictions that could potentially mislead investors. Gradient Boosting algorithm was employed to analyze the dataset, which was pre-processed using SMOTE to handle potential class imbalance. This technique helps to create synthetic data points for the minority class, resulting in a more balanced dataset for the classification model. The dataset itself encompassed a wide range of variables related to startup attributes and performance. The F1-score metric was utilized to evaluate the model's accuracy while minimizing false positive predictions that could potentially mislead investors. Gradient Boosting algorithm achieved an F1-score of 86% for predicting successful startups and 85% for predicting unsuccessful ones. The low false positive prediction rate of 7.9% on the test data further validates the model's reliability. The findings demonstrate the effectiveness of Gradient Boosting in predicting startup success with high accuracy and minimal false positives

Optimization of complex and nonlinear functions is essential across various domains, from engineering and finance to artificial intelligence and machine learning. Rosenbrock's function stands as a fundamental benchmark for evaluating optimization algorithms due to its highly nonlinear and multimodal nature. Among the multitude of optimization algorithms, the Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA) has garnered attention for its inspiration from the social behavior of humpback whales. However, its performance on Rosenbrock's function remains relatively unexplored. This paper aims to investigate the effectiveness of the WOA specifically on Rosenbrock's function through rigorous experimentation and analysis. By evaluating convergence speed, solution accuracy, and robustness, this study sheds light on WOA's behavior when confronted with the challenges posed by Rosenbrock's function. Comparative analysis with other optimization algorithms further elucidates WOA's adaptability and scalability. The findings contribute valuable insights for selecting suitable optimization algorithms in real-world applications and advance understanding of optimization algorithms' behavior in challenging landscapes.
The Role of Traditional Leaders in Local Governance: A Case Study of Jambi Province, Indonesia
Authors: H. M. Chotib
Published: October 2024

Indonesia's decentralized governance system provides space for the integration of traditional leadership into local administration. This study examines the role of traditional leaders in local governance within Jambi Province, Indonesia, investigating their interactions with the formal public administration system, influence on policy implementation, and contribution to community development. This qualitative study employed a case study approach focusing on three districts in Jambi Province with varying degrees of adherence to traditional customs. Data collection involved semi-structured interviews with traditional leaders, government officials, and community members. Archival research, including local regulations and policy documents, supplemented the primary data. Thematic analysis was used to identify key themes and patterns. Traditional leaders in Jambi continue to hold significant influence in local communities, particularly in rural areas. Their roles encompass conflict resolution, cultural preservation, and advocacy for community interests. While their authority is not formally recognized within the modern administrative structure, they play a crucial role in mediating between communities and the government. The study found varying degrees of collaboration and tension between traditional leaders and government officials, depending on factors such as the leaders' individual personalities, the prevailing cultural norms of the community, and the specific policy area in question. The findings highlight the complexities of integrating traditional leadership into modern governance systems. While traditional leaders can contribute valuable local knowledge and legitimacy, their involvement can also pose challenges to bureaucratic procedures and accountability mechanisms. The study underscores the importance of recognizing and accommodating traditional authority while ensuring transparency and adherence to democratic principles.

This paper will combine the two perspectives of the field of medical information and big data technology to provide new countermeasures and solutions for solving the problem of medical data leakage from the perspective of big data technology and combining with citizens' awareness of privacy protection.
Key-Value Cache Quantization in Large Language Models: A Safety Benchmark
Authors: Liu Timothy
Published: October 2024

The misuse of large language models (LLMs) is an ongoing concern with the expansion of general public access to LLMs. One reason for expanded access is the development of key-value (KV) cache quantization, a technique that significantly reduces both the large computing resource requirements and memory bottlenecks that are characteristic of LLMs. As more developers and vendors begin to prioritize efficiency in LLM training, protective measures against the misuse of language models become more of an afterthought. To address the expected increase of LLM misuse accompanying KV cache quantization, this paper covers a proof-of-concept benchmark to evaluate the proficiency of LLMs in response safety when tested against a sample of unsafe questions consisting of 13 different question categories. Response safety is a model’s ability to both clearly deny providing a response to a given question and avoid providing any additional information that attempts to provide an accurate answer. By testing the sample against the Meta Llama-2-7B pretrained chat model, we determine response safety fine-tuning considerations that address performance bias among the 13 question categories. We hope this study brings attention to not only the sacrifices of accuracy but also response safety of KV cache quantization in large language models.
