Authors:   Universidad de Guanajuato, Arizmendi-González Graciela , González Videgaray María del Carmen ,   Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México-FES Acatlán, Hodges Amy ,   The University of Texas at Arlington
Published: February 2025

This study explores how second language (L2) postgraduate writers from different disciplines at a Mexican university negotiate feedback on concerns about the structure of academic research genres (e.g., conference proposals, journal articles) with professional writing center tutors based in the United States, and it reports on those writers’ main concerns and communicative skills. Five L2 volunteer writers with an ongoing draft for publication and academic writing needs in English participated in synchronous online tutoring sessions and follow-up interviews, which were later analyzed in a contextual and deductive way. Findings revealed that concerns at a discourse level (e.g., organization, flow) were predominantly addressed during the tutoring. Moreover, concerning negotiation, Experimental Sciences L2 writers generally agreed and gave short answers to tutors’ questions as opposed to the Humanities and Social Sciences writers, who provided more explanations. Findings suggest L2 writers across disciplines need training in academic writing skills to manage concerns at a discourse level, and the Experimental Sciences writers need negotiation skills to interact with feedback and manage writing from a collaborative perspective as Canagarajah & Jerskey (2009) argued.

Authors: Muhammad Abid Abbasi  , Ahsan Ullah  , Saqib Ur Rehman
Published: February 2025

Since one of the four most important qualities of nurses is caring, they should be well-versed about HIV, follow proper procedures, and have a good attitude toward patients with the virus. They should also attend to the physical, psychological, and spiritual needs of these patients because they have no prospect of recovery. The objective of this study is to assess the level of HIV-related knowledge, attitudes, and practices among nurses working in public healthcare facilities in Karachi, with a focus on their interactions with patients living with HIV. This study employed a cross-sectional descriptive approach based on a structured questionnaire. Through non-probability convenient sampling, the charge nurses employed by Karachi’s four public care institutions were chosen as the population. 100 people made up the sample. The findings showed that 37% of the nurses had great understanding of HIV, 48% had average knowledge, and the other nurses had low knowledge. The majority of responders showed a satisfactory level of practices, and the majority of nurses showed a positive attitude toward HIV patients. The overall findings showed that despite their mediocre understanding of the illness, the nurses had a compassionate demeanor and were eager to help the patients.  According to the study's findings, nurses in a few public care hospitals in the Karachi have a mediocre level of expertise, but they have a compassionate attitude toward patients who are HIV positive and are willing to help them. Nurse education and training can help to further enhance the practices and attitudes. The study's findings call on hospital management, nursing leaders, and national health policy makers to take the appropriate steps to ensure that health care workers, particularly nurses, receive the most recent information.

Research on Sentiment Analysis of Weibo Comments Based on BERT-BILSTM-Attention Deep Learning
Authors: Xiong Xu
Published: February 2025

Sentiment analysis of COVID-19-related content on Weibo is of significant importance for studying public sentiment during the pandemic and economic recovery. Due to the lack of well-annotated Chinese Weibo COVID-19 data (such as the Weibo NCOV dataset), as well as the emotional complexity and ambiguity of Chinese Weibo texts, this paper proposes an innovative sentiment analysis model for Chinese Weibo COVID-19 data, namely BERT-BiLSTM-Attention. The model first encodes Weibo comment data using BERT to enhance the semantic feature representation of the text and improve its contextual understanding. Next, BiLSTM is used to enrich the contextual information of the Weibo text, helping to extract important and effective information from the text sequences. Finally, an Attention mechanism is employed to quickly capture the most relevant information. Experimental results show that the model is effective in sentiment analysis of Weibo COVID-19 data, achieving an accuracy of 88.2%. It can be concluded that the proposed model significantly improves the performance of Weibo text classification and demonstrates strong generalizability, making it suitable for sentiment analysis in various fields.

Authors: Miao Xinpeng , Feng Shuaichao , Zhao Jie , Zhuo Guangping , Ma Fei
Published: February 2025

Wide-field fundus images play a crucial role in the diagnosis of diabetic retinopathy. However, traditional convolutional neural networks face limitations when processing such images, struggling to balance local details and global structures. To address this, a novel lightweight feature extraction network, called the Adaptive Nonlinear Lightweight Retina Network (ANLR-Net), is proposed. The network consists of two key modules: the Adaptive Feature Mapping Module (AFMM) and the Lightweight Module (LEM). AFMM replaces traditional linear weight matrices with learnable nonlinear functions, enabling precise capture of both global structures and local details while reducing network parameters and improving learning efficiency. LEM performs dimensionality reduction and restoration using 1×1 convolutions, which reduces computational cost while maintaining the network's lightweight nature. ANLR-Net effectively captures multi-scale features in wide-field images, significantly reducing computational complexity and parameter count. Experimental results show that ANLR-Net achieves a classification accuracy of 95.05%, specificity of 98.64%, and an AUC of 0.9712 on the wide-field dataset, outperforming traditional models.

Authors: Gao Runqiu , Duan Jianliang , Dong Jian
Published: February 2025

This article determines the causes of fracture failure of the ST90 coiled tubing through chemical composition analysis, dimensional measurement, metallographic analysis, and hardness testing of the fractured tubing sample. The material test results show that the chemical composition, size, grain size and hardness test results of the fractured coiled tubing meet the standard requirements, and no abnormal results are found. There is mechanical trauma in the fracture and suspected improper operation on both sides of the fracture position, which causes the tube body damage by the stacking of the clamping blocks, that will cause the deformation of the coiled tubing. The thinning of the wall thickness and the increase of hardness will reduce the strength of the tubing, which is the main reason for the fracture of the coiled tubing.

Isu pencari suaka dan pengungsi luar negeri sedang hangat di Indonesia. Data dari UNHCR menunjukkan jumlah mereka yang datang ke Indonesia meningkat setiap tahun. Di Indonesia, UNHCR dan IOM menangani pencari suaka dan pengungsi: UNHCR menentukan status pengungsi dan negara ketiga bagi mereka, sementara IOM menyediakan fasilitas hidupnya. Menurut UU No 6 Tahun 2011 tentang Keimigrasian, pencari suaka yang ditolak status pengungsinya oleh UNHCR atau final rejected person (FRP) ditempatkan di Rudenim untuk proses pemulangan. Namun terdapat kesenjangan pelaksanaannya, tercatat 63 orang FRP di seluruh Rudenim Indonesia yang belum dapat dipulangkan, termasuk 2 orang di Rudenim Denpasar. Dari fenomena tersebut, diangkat rumusan masalah sebagai berikut: bagaimanakah efektivitas penanganan orang asing yang berstatus FRP pada Rudenim Denpasar? Apakah kendala yang dihadapi dan upaya yang dilakukan oleh Rudenim Denpasar dalam menangani orang asing yang berstatus FRP? Jenis penelitian hukum yang digunakan adalah yuridis empiris yaitu penelitian yang dilakukan penelitian lapangan dengan wawancara langsung kepada pihak Rudenim Denpasar berkaitan dengan permasalahan yang akan dibahas. Hasil dari penelitian ini yaitu penanganan pemulangan terhadap FRP belum optimal, proses pemulangan memakan waktu lama hingga 7 tahun lebih. Hal tersebut dikarenakan terdapat kendala meliputi deteni yang menolak dipulangkan, deteni yang mengaku stateless, deteni yang tidak memiliki biaya tiket pulang, dan kurangnya respons dari UNHCR dan Kedutaan setelah penolakan permohonan status pengungsi. Telah dilakukan berbagai upaya dalam menangani kendala tersebut seperti meningkatkan koordinasi dengan pihak terkait seperti Kedutaan, Direktorat Kerjasama Keimigrasian, UNHCR, dan Direktorat Pengawasan dan Penindakan Keimigrasian, pemindahan deteni, dan penempatan di negara ketiga.

Published: February 2025

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis efektivitas pelaksanaan pengawasan terhadap pengungsi mandiri oleh Rumah Detensi Imigrasi Denpasar. Dengan bertambahnya jumlah pencari suaka dan pengungsi mandiri setiap tahun, pengawasan terhadap mereka menjadi semakin sulit karena sifat nomaden dari pengungsi dan kurangnya transparansi dari organisasi internasional seperti UNHCR dan IOM. Berdasarkan data dari tahun 2021 hingga 2023, ditemukan bahwa pelaksanaan pengawasan belum efektif, dengan kurang dari 50% pengungsi yang dapat diawasi. Hal ini terjadi karena keterbatasan sumber daya manusia serta data yang tidak valid, di mana banyak pengungsi sering berpindah tempat tanpa melapor, sehingga menyulitkan proses pengawasan. Selain itu, ketidakefektifan koordinasi antara instansi terkait, terutama dengan pihak internasional, memperparah situasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa faktor penghambat utama dalam pengawasan adalah kurangnya fasilitas penampungan bagi pengungsi mandiri di wilayah Bali, sehingga banyak pengungsi yang hidup berpindah-pindah dan sulit dijangkau oleh petugas. Pengawasan administratif yang dilakukan bersifat terbatas dan hanya dapat mencakup pengawasan terhadap dokumen, namun belum menyentuh aspek sosial dan ekonomi pengungsi. Untuk meningkatkan efektivitas pengawasan, diperlukan pembaruan kebijakan serta peningkatan koordinasi antara Rumah Detensi Imigrasi dengan lembaga internasional dan pemerintah daerah.

The Influence of Digital Social Networks on Contemporary Cuban
Authors: Izquierdo Cuellar Yolier
Published: February 2025

The article addresses the relationship between digital social networks and democracy in the contemporary Cuban context. From a theoretical perspective, key concepts of democracy are explored, according to authors such as Plato, and contrasted with the Cuban political system. The arrival of information and communications technologies has profoundly modified social interaction, promoting the exercise of the right to freedom of expression. However, in the case of Cuba, this phenomenon represents a challenge for the government, which faces citizen discontent reflected in social networks and the proliferation of critical digital media. The Cuban sociopolitical situation, influenced by the US embargo, has generated uncertainty about the nature of its political system, described as totalitarian by some and democratic by others. Social networks have allowed citizens to express their dissatisfaction and organize themselves, as occurred in the protests of 2021. These platforms represent a new space for democratization and political participation, although they also pose challenges for the government, such as the management of disinformation and public criticism.

Authors: Lawal Sabitiyu Abosede , Yekini Abubakri
Published: February 2025

Due to overpopulation and unfavourable economic conditions that lead to unemployment and insecurity in Nigeria, many individuals have been lured into seeking better opportunities in Nigeria and across the Nigerian borders. While some make this decision without being intimidated, others are lured by human traffickers. This paper examines the legal and institutional frameworks for preventing human trafficking in Nigeria. The paper analyses why people fall prey to human trafficking, the various forms it takes, and the legal and institutional frameworks established to combat it. The paper adopts a qualitative and doctrinal methodology and finds that Nigeria has adequate legislative provisions to address human trafficking, but these laws must be effectively implemented. The paper highlights that the penal provisions in the Child Rights Act of 2003 are more stringent than those in the Trafficking in Persons (Prohibition) Enforcement and Administration Act of 2015. Furthermore, the paper observes that while anti-trafficking agencies are trying to combat human trafficking, more action is needed to address the high-profile individuals involved in human trafficking who evade legalconsequences. The paper offers recommendations to enhance the effectiveness of the legal and institutional frameworks and concludes that the laws should be implemented by an established institution to avoid bias.

Në një kohë ku nga njëra anë bota bëhet „më e vogël" dhe më e lidhur mes vete, por nga ana tjetër rriten edhe urrejtjet, sidomos kur bota muslimane gjendet në shënjestër të paragjykimeve dhe pergjithësimeve, turizmi konsiderohet shpesh si mjet për pajtimin e popujve. Për fat të keq, kohët e fundit turistët janë bërë edhe caqe të sulmeve terroriste dhe rrëmbimeve. Megjithatë, nëpërmjet një kontakti të drejtpërdrejtë të njerëzve nga vende të ndryshme, pritet që të krijohen përceptime më realiste dhe të rritet shkalla kuptueshmërisë për tjetrin. Ky studim, duke marrë si shembull një grup udhëtarë në Jemen, një vend që këtyre ditëve ka hyrë përsërı në lajmet botërore, hedh një dritë krıtike mbi këtë tezë.
Roli i aleances panortodokse ballkanike ne divorcin e shqiptareve nga shteti Osman
Authors: Jazexhi Olsi
Published: February 2025

Fqinjët e shqiptarëve ishin shumë të interesuar për t'i ndarë shqiptarët nga Perandoria Osmane, veçanërisht sllavët dhe grekët për një periudhë shumë të gjatë kohore. Në mesin e shekullit të 19-të, propaganda antiosmane arriti t'i bindë shqiptarët se po shtypen nga turqit dhe se ka ardhur koha që ata të çlirohen nga zgjedha osmane.Kjo është arsyeja për aktivizimin e të gjitha mjeteve në dispozicion. Në këtë u përfshi edhe Aleanca Panortodokse Ballkanike. Duke përdorur fenë si pretekst, ajo ia doli të përdorte malësorët e Malit të Zi dhe të krishterë, të udhëhequr nga Dede Sokoli, për t'iu shmangur banorëve shqiptarë të veriut duke u shtirur sikur po i çlironin nga ushtria turke.
Zeje në qytetin e Prishtinës

Treguesi më i rëndësishëm i urbanizimit është fakti se individët nuk janë më të varur nga kultivimi i tokës (d.m.th. krahas bujqësisë dhe blegtorisë mund të ushtrojnë profesione të ndryshme, përmes të cilave mund të plotësojnë të gjitha nevojat e tyre). Si model kemi zgjedhur qytetin e Prishtinës dhe kemi analizuar profesione të ndryshme, të cilat janë ushtruar në shekullin XIX. Burimi kryesor që u përdor ishte Temettuat Defteri, i cili ruhet në Arkivin Osman. Defter ka 245 faqe dhe tregon rezultatet e regjistrimit të pronës në qytetin e Prishtinës në vitin 1844. Gjithashtu përmban emrat e kryetarëve të familjeve myslimane dhe jomuslimane që jetojnë në këtë qytet, zanatin që ata ushtrojnë, real. pronës etj.
Deklarata islame dhe konveta evropiane

I gjithë njerëzimi përbën një familje të madhe. Ata janë të bashkuar nën flamurin. të të gjithë robërve të Allahut dhe ata janë fëmijët e Ademit (paqja dhe bekimet e Allahut qofshin mbi të). Të gjithë njerëzit janë të barabartë për sa i përket dinjitetit dhe nderit njerëzor. Të gjithë njerëzit janë gjithashtu të barabartë përsa i përket përgjegjësisë. Asnjë racë, ngjyrë, gjuhë, gjini, besim fetar, përkatësi politike, status shoqëror apo ndonjë tjetër nuk shërben si faktor që i diferencon ato. Besimi i vërtetë dhe i shëndoshë është e vetmja, siguria dhe garancia për të siguruar rritjen e këtij integriteti njerëzor për integrimin njerëzor.Ky është një studim krahasues ndërmjet Ligjit Islam dhe të Drejtës Evropiane. Ligji është përbërësi themelor i Islamit. Me ligj nënkuptojmë një sërë rregullash, parimesh dhe ligjesh që rregullojnë ndërlidhjet njerëzore në të gjitha aspektet e jetës dhe u tregojnë njerëzve atë që i pëlqen Allahut të bëni dhe çfarë të lini.Ka gjëra që ligji islam i trajton në terma të veçantë. Megjithatë, ka gjëra të tjera që trajtohen, të cilat në terma mjaft të përgjithshëm ose ngjarje u lanë.Legjislacioni islam lë me qëllim një zonë të zbrazët, të cilën ne e quajmë zonën e favorit apo tolerancës së Allahut, duke përdorur fjalën e Profetit. Kjo zonë e zbrazët, në aspektin ligjor, nënkupton mirësinë e Allahut, mëshirën dhe madje furnizimin për krijesat e Tij.Një vështrim i afërt i kësaj fushe do të tregojë se ajo përfshin çështje të cilat kushtëzohen nga faktorë të caktuar të kohës, mjedisit, fazës së zhvillimit, rrethanave politike dhe ushtarake etj.Ndonjëherë ligji islam ofron vetëm parime ose udhëzime të përgjithshme dhe ia lë detajet çdo populli dhe ose brezi që të vendosë në dritën e asaj që është e mirë dhe e përshtatshme për ta....
Veçori gjuhesore - dialektore ne gjuhen e autorëve shqiptarë të Kosovës që shkruan me alfabet arabo - osman
Authors: Kelmendi Hasan
Published: February 2025

Në fushën e dialektologjisë së shqipes, veçanërisht të dialektologjisë së saj historike, shënimet e hershme të shkruara kanë një rëndësi të pamohueshme, pasi ato nxjerrin në pah fazat fillestare të përdorimit të gjuhës shqipe. Me rëndësi të madhe janë shkrimet e autorëve të hershëm shqiptarë nga veriu, si ato të Buzukut, Budit, Bardhit, Bogdanit dhe Kazazit. Megjithatë, po aq domethënëse janë edhe veprat e autorëve shqiptarë që kanë shkruar me shkrimin osman, veçanërisht për studimin diakronik të dialektit gegë verilindor, që flitet nga shqiptarët në Kosovë.
Këta autorë më pak të njohur dhe dorëshkrimet e tyre kanë vlerë të paçmueshme historike dhe letrare. Ky prodhim letrar dëshmon se, përkundër rrethanave sfiduese, gjuha dhe letërsia në Kosovë u kultivuan nga gjysma e dytë e shekullit të 18-të deri në Luftën e Dytë Botërore e më tej. Hulumtimi shkencor mbi këtë temë filloi në vitet 1950. Ndërsa disa autorë, si T. Boshnjaku me Vehbijen e tij apo Divanin e Shejh Maliqit, janë studiuar përmes veprave të shkruara dhe monografive, shumë të tjerë mbeten kryesisht të paeksploruar.
Ky punim synon të shqyrtojë gjuhën e autorëve shtesë, kontributet e të cilëve janë po aq të rëndësishëm në këtë fushë studimi.

Vlerësim i strukturave ekzistuese brenda kalasë së Elbasanit të ndërtuara gjatë periudhës osmane
Authors: Basha Brunilda , Sağdıç Zafer
Published: February 2025

Qëllimi i këtij studimi është të identifikojë strukturat e mbetura të ndërtuara midis shekujve XV-XIX brenda mureve të Kalasë së Elbasanit dhe të analizojë arkitekturën e tyre atëherë dhe tani, si dhe të vlerësojë nivelin e punës së ruajtjes së tyre. Disa prej tyre kanë pësuar disa restaurime dhe funksionojnë ende sot si; Xhamia e Mbretit (Hunkar Camii) dhe Kulla e Sahatit. Struktura të tjera janë lënë të braktisura si; Hamami i Kalasë (Kala hamam), dhe disa të tjera janë shkatërruar plotësisht si; pazari apo Xhamia Sulejmanije. Për të kuptuar gjuhën arkitekturore osmane të përdorur në Shqipëri dhe se si është zhvilluar puna e ruajtjes në këto struktura, ky hulumtim përdor një qasje historike dhe analitike. Metodat e përdorura përfshijnë një rishikim të literaturës nga disa burime, analizë mbi vizatime arkivore, studim rastesh dhe intervista. Në fund të këtij punimi, theksohen rekomandime për të rritur ndërgjegjësimin mbi Trashëgiminë Osmane dhe Islame në Elbasan dhe ruajtjen e saj për përdorim të ardhshëm.
Recognition of the other in Muslim intellectual history

Diversiteti fetar mund të jetë burimi i konflikteve dhe dhunës. Qasje jo-ekskluziviste ndaj diverzitetit fetar e cila e mundëson justifikimin dhe njohjen e tjetrit fetar mund të shfrytëzohet si masa parandaluese e konflikteve fetare. Ky punim është strukturuar në dy pjesë kryesore. Pjesa e pare do t’i rishikojë disa ajete Kur’anore mbi diverzitetin fetar, si dhe interpretimet e tyre ekskluziviste dhe jo-ekskluziviste të egzegjezës Kur’anore. Pjesa e dytë do të prezantojë disa mendime jo-ekskluziviste mbi fetë (religjionet) në traditën klasike Islame me fokous të veçantë mbi Sufizmin dhe filozofinë. Ky studim prezanton disa pikëpamje jo- ekskluziviste ndaj diverzitetit fetar nga konteksti Islam. Ka treguar se egzistojnë teoritë inkluziviste dhe pluraliste të rëndësishme si në Kur’an ashtu edhe në diturinë klasike Islame. Kur’ani përmban ajete të qarta pluraliste siç janë ajeti i 63-të të surës së dytë. Mirëpo, në teologjinë Islame dhe në egzegjezën Kur’anore, shpeshëherë, këto interpretohen në mënyrën ekskluziviste ose konsiderohen si të shfuqizuara (mansukh). Pluralizmi fetar, është promovuar kryesisht në Sufizëm ose filozofi. Ky punim diskuton disa shembuj siç janë Farabi (872-950), Ibn Arabi (1165-1240) dhe Rumi (1207-1273).
