Authors: Wang Qianrong , Chen Yan , Xie Yuting , Xia Ying , Xie Zhiguo , Huang Gan , Fan Li , Zhou Zhiguang , Li Xia
Published: June 2023

Context

Family history of type 2 diabetes (T2D) is an important but neglected parameter; however, its role in identifying the heterogeneity and subtypes of type 1 diabetes (T1D) remains unclear.

Objective

We investigated the effect of family history of T2D on the clinical phenotype of T1D patients and evaluated its value in T1D classification.

Methods

A total of 1410 T1D patients were enrolled in this prospective study. Information on family history of T2D in first-degree relatives (FDRs) was collected by research nurses using a semi-structured questionnaire as previously described. The effect of family history of T2D on clinical characteristics was evaluated in overall and subgroups of T1D patients stratified by islet autoantibodies, onset age, and human leukocyte antigen (HLA) genotype. Cluster analysis was performed to identify family history of T2D-related subgroups.

Results

A total of 10% (141/1410) of patients had at least 1 FDR diagnosed with T2D. A milder phenotype associated with family history of T2D was present in overall T1D patients, including older onset age (P < .001), higher body mass index (P < .001), higher fasting and postprandial C-peptide levels (all P < .01), lower positive rates of all islet autoantibodies, and susceptible HLA genotypes (all P < .05). Clinical heterogeneity associated with family history of T2D in the T1D subgroup stratified by autoimmunity, age of onset, and HLA genotypes was consistent. Using family history of T2D as a cluster variable, T1D patients were divided into 5 clusters, and patients in the T2D family history cluster displayed a milder phenotype than others.

Conclusion

Family history of T2D should be considered as an important indicator for precise subclassification of T1D patients based on clinical heterogeneity.

Published: June 2023

One of the marketing options for European sardine (Sardina pilchardus), which consumers demand nutritional value and taste, is processing in brine that provides a longer shelf life. However, the slow rate of salt diffusion is the biggest obstacle to be overcome. In this context, the pulsed electric field method (PEF) is considered an innovative method that accelerates mass transfer. This study applied PEF to sardine before and while they were kept in brine. The salt concentration of the final product was found to be higher than the control group, which was not applied PEF (p<0.05). However, the difference between the PEF applied samples was insignificant while ash content increased, and water activity value decreased in all samples due to salt absorption. When pH values were compared, no significant difference was observed between samples and storage periods. According to the scanning electron microscope (SEM) images, the number and diameter of the pores increased due to the rise in application time. Therefore, it was concluded that PEF application could be considered a pretreatment to increase salt diffusion in European sardine.

Short-wavelength radiation pulses with time-varying orbital angular momentum from tailored relativistic electron beams
Authors: Sun Hao , Xiao Yaozong , Liu Bo , Feng Chao
Published: June 2023

In this Letter, we propose a novel, to the best of our knowledge, technique to generate short-wavelength radiation carrying time-varying orbital angular momentum (OAM) by tailoring relativistic beams in free-electron lasers. To manipulate the temporal properties of OAM beams, two time-delayed seed lasers with different OAM values are used to interact with the electron beam in the undulator. With this method, high-harmonic electron beam microbunching with a time-varying helical distribution can be tailored to match the time-varying instantaneous helical phase structure of the x ray beams. Theoretical and simulation results demonstrate that high-power x ray beams with time-varying OAM can be produced by the proposed technique, which opens new routes to scientific research in x ray science.

Authors: Kumari Prity , Goswami Viniya , N. Harshith , Pundir R. S.
Published: June 2023

Objectives

The forecasting of horticulture commodity prices, such as bananas, has wide-ranging impacts on farmers, traders and end-users. The considerable volatility in horticultural commodities pricing estimates has allowed farmers to exploit various local marketplaces for profitable sales of their farm produce. Despite the demonstrated efficacy of machine learning models as a suitable substitute for conventional statistical approaches, their application for price forecasting in the context of Indian horticulture remains an area of contention. Past attempts to forecast agricultural commodity prices have relied on a wide variety of statistical models, each of which comes with its own set of limitations.

Methods

Although machine learning models have emerged as formidable alternatives to more conventional statistical methods, there is still reluctance to use them for the purpose of predicting prices in India. In the present investigation, we have analysed and compared the efficacy of a variety of statistical and machine learning models in order to get accurate price forecast. Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA), Seasonal Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average model (SARIMA), Autoregressive Conditional Heteroscedasticity model (ARCH), Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroscedasticity model (GARCH), Artificial Neural Network (ANN) and Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) were fitted to generate reliable predictions of prices of banana in Gujarat, India from January 2009 to December 2019.

Results

Empirical comparisons have been made between the predictive accuracy of different machine learning (ML) models and the typical stochastic model and it is observed that ML approaches, especially RNN, surpassed all other models in the majority of situations. Mean Absolute Percent Error (MAPE), Root Mean Square Error (RMSE), symmetric mean absolute percentage error (SMAPE), mean absolute scaled error (MASE) and mean directional accuracy (MDA) are used to illustrate the superiority of the models and RNN resulted least in terms of all error accuracy measures.

Conclusions

RNN outperforms other models in this study for predicting accurate prices when compared to various statistical and machine learning techniques. The accuracy of other methodologies like ARIMA, SARIMA, ARCH GARCH, and ANN falls short of expectations.

Published: June 2023

In order to improve the position high-precision synchronization performance of multi-motor synchronous control, a multi-motor position synchronization control method based on non-singular fast terminal sliding mode control (NFTSMC) combined with an improved deviation coupling control structure (Improved Deviation Coupling Control(IDCC), NFTSMC+IDCC). Firstly, this paper designs a sliding mode controller using a non-singular fast terminal sliding mode surface with a Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) as the control object. Secondly, the deviation coupling is improved to enhance the coupling between multiple motors and achieve position synchronization. Finally, the simulation results show that the total error of multi-motor position synchronization under NFTSMC control is 0.553r in the simulation of multi-motor synchronization control under the same working conditions, which is 2.873r and 1.772r less than that of SMC and FTSMC in terms of speed error, and the anti-disturbance performance is 83.68% and 76.22% higher than that of both of them, respectively. In the subsequent simulation of the improved multi-motor position synchronization structure, the total error of the multi-motor position is in the range of 0.56r-0.58r at three speeds, which is much smaller than the synchronization error under the Ring Coupling Control (RCC) structure and Deviation Coupling Control (DCC) structure, showing a better The synchronization error is much smaller than that of the RCC structure and DCC structure, which shows better position synchronization performance. Therefore, the multi-motor position synchronization control method proposed in this paper has a good position synchronization effect and achieves the control effect of small displacement error and fast convergence of the multi-motor position synchronization control system after being disturbed, the control performance is significantly improved.

Authors: Arije Olujide , Madan Jason , Hlungwani Tintswalo
Published: June 2023

The Adolescent Health Quality of Care (AHQOC) index is a tool designed to evaluate the quality of facility-based adolescent sexual and reproductive health (ASRH) services. This descriptive cross-sectional study aimed to validate the AHQOC index in 27 primary and secondary public health facilities located in a rural and an urban local government area (LGA) of Ogun State, Nigeria. To conduct the study, 12 mystery clients (MCs) were recruited and performed 144 visits to the health facilities. The MCs were young males and females who were seeking information on premarital sex, pregnancy prevention, sexually transmitted infections (STIs), and contraception. The validity, and reliability of the AHQOC index were evaluated using exploratory factor analysis, Cronbach’s Alpha, and intra-class correlation coefficient tests. The Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin test result for the initial 37-item pool was 0.7169, and the final tool retained 27 items with a Cronbach’s Alpha of 0.80. Two subscales of the index had Cronbach’s Alpha of 0.76 and 0.85. The intra-rater consistency assessed by the intra-class correlation coefficient was 0.66 (0.10–0.92) p = 0.001 for the urban LGA and 0.72 (0.37–0.91) p = 0.001 for the rural LGA. Positive and statistically significant relationships were observed between the full scales and subscales and the validity item (MC ranking of health worker on proficiency from 1 to 10). The results of this study demonstrate that the validated AHQOC index is a valuable tool for assessing the quality of ASRH services in public health facilities.
Calculating the matrix profile from noisy data
Authors: Hehir Colin , Smeaton Alan F.
Published: June 2023

The matrix profile (MP) is a data structure computed from a time series which encodes the data required to locate motifs and discords, corresponding to recurring patterns and outliers respectively. When the time series contains noisy data then the conventional approach is to pre-filter it in order to remove noise but this cannot apply in unsupervised settings where patterns and outliers are not annotated. The resilience of the algorithm used to generate the MP when faced with noisy data remains unknown. We measure the similarities between the MP from original time series data with MPs generated from the same data with noisy data added under a range of parameter settings including adding duplicates and adding irrelevant data. We use three real world data sets drawn from diverse domains for these experiments Based on dissimilarities between the MPs, our results suggest that MP generation is resilient to a small amount of noise being introduced into the data but as the amount of noise increases this reslience disappears.
Obstructive sleep apnea related to mental health, health-related quality of life and multimorbidity: A nationwide survey of a representative sample in Republic of Korea
Authors: Lee Mee-Ri , Jung Sung Min
Published: June 2023

Objectives

This study assessed the effects of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) on mental health, health-related quality of life (HRQoL), and multimorbidity in Korean adults.

Methods

The study included 8030 participants from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey Ⅷ (2019–2020). The risk of OSA was assessed using STOP-BANG questionnaire. Depression was measured using the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), and stress was measured using a questionnaire. HRQoL was determined by EuroQol 5-dimension (EQ-5D) and Health-related Quality of Life Instrument with 8 Items (HINT-8) scores. Multimorbidity was defined as the presence of 2 or more chronic diseases. A complex sample multivariate logistic regression analysis was conducted.

Results

Participants with a high OSA risk were more likely to a have high PHQ-9 score (OR 4.31, 95% confidence interval [CI] 2.80–6.65), total depression (OR 4.07, 95% CI 2.67–6.19) stress (OR 2.33, 95% CI 1.85–2.95), lower EQ-5D (OR 2.88, 95% CI 2.00–4.15) and HINT-8 scores (OR 2.87, 95% CI 1.65–4.98), and multimorbidity (OR 2.62, 95% CI 2.01–3.41) than participants with low OSA risk. High OSA risk was significantly associated with all EQ-5D and HINT-8 items.

Conclusions

This study adds to the few population-based studies showing associations between mental health, HRQoL, and multimorbidity using nationwide data. OSA prevention might be helpful for good mental health, improving HRQoL, and comorbidity burdens. The results provide novel insights regarding the association between sleep apnea and multimorbidity.

Published: June 2023

Background

The volume-outcome relationship in patients with severe Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is unclear and is important for establishing a system for the medical care of severe COVID-19. This study aimed to evaluate the association between institutional case volume and outcomes in patients with ventilated COVID-19.

Methods

We analyzed patients with severe COVID-19 on ventilatory control aged > 17 years who were enrolled in the J-RECOVER study, which is a retrospective multicenter observational study conducted between January 2020 and September 2020 in Japan. Based on the ventilated COVID-19 case volume, the higher one-third of institutions were defined as high-volume centers, the middle one-third as middle-volume centers, and the lower one-third as low-volume centers. The primary outcome measure was in-hospital mortality during hospitalization due to COVID-19. Multivariate logistic regression analysis for in-hospital mortality and ventilated COVID-19 case volume was performed after adjusting for multiple propensity scores and in-hospital variables. To estimate the multiple propensity score, we fitted a multinomial logistic regression model, which fell into one of the three groups based on patient demographics and prehospital factors.

Results

We analyzed 561 patients who required ventilator management. In total, 159, 210, and 192 patients were admitted to low-volume (36 institutions, < 11 severe COVID-19 cases per institution during the study period), middle-volume (14 institutions, 11–25 severe cases per institution), and high-volume (5 institutions, > 25 severe cases per institution) centers, respectively. After adjustment for multiple propensity scores and in-hospital variables, admission to middle- and high-volume centers was not significantly associated with in-hospital death compared with admission to low-volume centers (adjusted odds ratio, 0.77 [95% confidence interval (CI): 0.46–1.29] and adjusted odds ratio, 0.76 [95% CI: 0.44–1.33], respectively).

Conclusions

There may be no significant relationship between institutional case volume and in-hospital mortality in patients with ventilated COVID-19.
T-BACCO SCORE: A predictive scoring tool for tuberculosis (TB) loss to follow-up among TB smokers
Authors: Sharani Zatil Zahidah , Ismail Nurhuda , Yasin Siti Munira , Isa Muhamad Rodi , Razali Asmah , Sherzkawee Mas Ahmad , Ismail Ahmad Izuanuddin
Published: June 2023

Introduction

Loss to follow-up (LTFU) and smoking during TB treatment are major challenges for TB control programs. Smoking increases the severity and prolongs TB treatment duration, which lead to a higher rate of LTFU. We aim to develop a prognostic scoring tool to predict LTFU among TB patients who smoke to improve successful TB treatment outcomes.

Materials and methods

The development of the prognostic model utilized prospectively collected longitudinal data of adult TB patients who smoked in the state of Selangor between 2013 until 2017, which were obtained from the Malaysian Tuberculosis Information System (MyTB) database. Data were randomly split into development and internal validation cohorts. A simple prognostic score (T-BACCO SCORE) was constructed based on the regression coefficients of predictors in the final logistic model of the development cohort. Estimated missing data was 2.8% from the development cohort and was completely at random. Model discrimination was determined using c-statistics (AUCs), and calibration was based on the Hosmer and Lemeshow goodness of fit test and calibration plot.

Results

The model highlights several variables with different T-BACCO SCORE values as predictors for LTFU among TB patients who smoke (e.g., age group, ethnicity, locality, nationality, educational level, monthly income level, employment status, TB case category, TB detection methods, X-ray categories, HIV status, and sputum status). The prognostic scores were categorized into three groups that predict the risk for LTFU: low-risk (<15 points), medium-risk (15 to 25 points) and high-risk (> 25 points). The model exhibited fair discrimination with a c-statistic of 0.681 (95% CI 0.627–0.710) and good calibration with a nonsignificant chi-square Hosmer‒Lemeshow’s goodness of fit test χ2 = 4.893 and accompanying p value of 0.769.

Conclusion

Predicting LTFU among TB patients who smoke in the early phase of TB treatment is achievable using this simple T-BACCO SCORE. The applicability of the tool in clinical settings helps health care professionals manage TB smokers based on their risk scores. Further external validation should be carried out prior to use.

Authors: Bakhtavar Muhammad Amir , Afzal Irfan , Khalid Ehsan , Jabeen Nazish , Jabeen Raheela
Published: June 2023

Okra seed is vulnerable to loss of germination and vigor in variable storage conditions. High seed moisture contents (SMC) accelerate seed deterioration during storage thus keeping low seed moisture contents by storing seed in hermetic bags may help to retain seed longevity. Okra seed was equilibrated to four initial moisture levels including 8,10, 12 and 14% SMC. Seed was then packed and stored in traditional storage bags (Paper, cloth, polypropylene and jute bag) and hermetic Super Bag for 12 months under ambient conditions. Seed stored in hermetic Super Bag at 8 and 10% moisture contents maintained higher germination due to low seed moisture contents. Moreover, activities of α-amylases and total soluble sugars were higher while electrical conductivity of seed leachates, malondialdehyde (MDA) and reducing sugar contents were less in the seeds stored in hermetic Super Bag at 8 and 10% SMC as compared to seed stored in traditional storage bags. Hermetic storage at 14% moisture negatively influenced the seed quality. Moisture adsorption isotherms of okra seeds were developed at constant temperature of 25°C and varying levels of relative humidity from 60 to 90%. Moisture isotherms indicated no significant increase in seed moisture contents at 60 and 70% relative humidity (RH) in hermetic bags whereas a minor increase in seed moisture at 80 and 90% RH has been observed for the seeds incubated in hermetic bags. SMC significantly increased in traditional storage bags particularly in jute bag at high RH. In conclusion, storage in hermetic bags, maintain low seed moisture and high seed quality. Okra seed storage in hermetic bags at 8 and 10% SMC maintains seed longevity under ambient storage conditions.

Konsekuensi Yuridis Putusan MKRI No. 137/PUU-XIII/2015 terhadap Pergeseran Kewenangan Pengujian Peraturan Daerah dan Peraturan Kepala Daerah Kabupaten/Kota oleh Gubernur
Authors: Kartika Adhitya Widya
Published: June 2023

Abstract: The dynamics of the local government system follow the dynamics of the law that overshadows it. Constitutional Court Decision No. 137/PUU-XIII/2015 has caused a shift in the power to review regional regulations district/city and even other legal structures in the regional government system. This shift in authority affects the implementation of local government functions, particularly at the district/city level. This article examines the consequences of shifting the authority to review regional regulations and regional head regulations for districts/cities. This study uses a regulatory approach and legal doctrine with a juridical analysis method. From the study that has been carried out, it is concluded that the testing of district/city regulations was initially carried out by the governor in the regional legislation process. However, since the Constitutional Court Decision No. 137/PUU-XIII/2015, the governor no longer has the authority to do so. The authority to review district/city regulations is transferred to the Supreme Court. This shift of authority was initially an oversight executive review but later became a judicial review. However, the governor has the authority to limit the implementation of autonomy in regent/mayor regulations, but not to district/city regional regulations, which are also an element of deconcentration.Abstrak: Dinamika sistem pemerintahan daerah mengikuti dinamika hukum yang menaunginya. Putusan Mahkamah Konstitusi RI No. 137/PUU-XIII/2015 telah menyebabkan terjadinya pergeseran kekuasaan pengujian peraturan daerah (perda) kabupaten/kota bahkan struktur hukum lain pada sistem pemerintahan daerah. Pergeseran kewenangan ini mempengaruhi pelaksanaan fungsi pemerintahan daerah, khususnya di tingkat kabupaten/kota. Artikel ini mengkaji tentang konsekuensi pergeseran kewenangan pengujian peraturan daerah dan peraturan kepala daerah (perkepda) kabupaten/kota. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan peraturan dan doktrin hukum dengan metode analisis yuridis. Dari kajian yang telah dilakukan diperoleh simpulan bahwa pengujian perda kabupaten/kota pada mulanya dilakukan oleh gubernur pada proses legislasi daerah. Akan tetapi semenjak adanya putusan Mahkamah Konstitusi No. 137/PUU-XIII/2015, gubernur tidak lagi memiliki kewenangan untuk itu. Adapun kewenangan pengujian perda kabupaten/kota beralih kepada Mahkamah Agung. Pergeseran kewenangan ini awalnya merupakan pengawasan executive review namun kemudian menjadi judicial review. Namun demikian, gubernur memiliki kewenangan melakukan pembatasan terhadap implementasi otonomi dalam peraturan bupati/walikota, tetapi tidak terhadap peraturan daerah kabupaten/kota yang juga merupakan unsur dekonsentrasi.
The Application of Dynamic Zakat Percentage by Yusuf al-Qaradawy on the Professional Zakat in Indonesian BAZNAS
Authors: Haris Gusnam
Published: June 2023

Abstract: This article explores the comparison of professional zakat acquisition at BAZNAS Indonesia between the zakat acquisition using a standard percentage and using the dynamic percentage offered by Yusuf Al-Qaradawi. Currently, professional and mal zakat at BAZNAS Indonesia has provided the largest income of all existing zakat acquisition. The percentage of professional zakat is using standard percentage, 2,5% of someone professional income. With using the payroll system, all muzakkys have the same amount of zakat, no matter how much they earn. It is not fair to those who have a small income. Can the application of a dynamic percentage of zakat on professional zakat increase the zakat acquisition and fulfil the justice? It is based on professional zakat data obtained from the National UPZ Collection Division of BAZNAS, and the data is simulated using dynamic percentages. The result shows that the dynamic zakat percentage is more fulfilling legal justice than the standard percentage and the zakat acquisition—that application of the dynamic zakat percentage-- has increased by 16.9% compared to the application of the standard percentage that used by BAZNAS today. Abstrak: Artikel ini memaparkan perbandingan perolehan zakat profesi di BAZNAS Indonesia antara perolehan zakat menggunakan persentase tetap dengan perolehan zakat menggunakan persentase dinamis yang ditawarkan oleh Yusuf al-Qaradawi. Zakat mal dan profesi di BAZNAS Indonesia saat ini telah memberikan income terbesar dari keseluruhan perolehan zakat yang ada. Persentase zakat profesi yang digunakan adalah persentase tetap yaitu 2,5% dari pendapatan profesi seseorang. Melalui  sistem payroll, seluruh muzakky disamakan tanpa memandang besar kecilnya penghasilan mereka. Hal ini dipandang tidak adil bagi mereka yang berpenghasilan kecil. Mampukah penerapan persentase zakat dinamis atas zakat profesi lebih mendatangkan keadilan dan dapat meningkatkan perolehan zakat profesi? Data yang digunakan adalah data zakat profesi yang diperoleh dari Divisi Pengumpulan UPZ Nasional BAZNAS yang menggunakan persentase tetap, kemudian data tersebut disimulasikan dengan menggunakan persentase dinamis. Hasilnya menunjukkan bahwa penerapan persentase zakat dinamis lebih memenuhi keadilan hukum dibandingkan presentase zakat tetap. Selain itu, pengumpulan dana zakat dengan menggunakan persentase zakat dinamis mengalami peningkatan sebesar 16,9% dibandingkan penerapan persentase tetap yang digunakan oleh BAZNAS saat ini.
Al-Rahn in Malaysia and Indonesia: Legal History and Upcoming Trajectory

Published: June 2023

Abstract: This article examines the legal history of the application of Al-Rahn in two countries: Malaysia and Indonesia. Malaysia and Indonesia have similar roots in the implementation of Islamic law during the emergence of Islamic kingdoms in the Nusantara. However, these two countries developed different legal systems after colonialism: Britain colonized Malaysia and the Netherlands colonized Indonesia. These two phases, the Islamic kingdoms and the colonization of two European nations (Britain and the Netherlands), also influenced the historical development of the application of Al-Rahn to date. This study was conducted normatively with a comparative approach to legal history. This study’s qualitatively processed data are secondary data in statutory documents, books, and journal articles related to Al-Rahn. Comparatively, it was found that Al-Rahn was legally applied in these two countries during the development of the Islamic kingdoms, but then receded and even sank during colonialization. The influence of European law, whether Common Law or Civil Law, was so deeply rooted that it took a while to reach the stage where Al-Rahn was set into motion again. However, the practice of Al-Rahn, both in Malaysia and Indonesia, is yet to be accommodated under a single legal basis, rather, it is scattered in several different laws and regulations.Abstrak: Artikel ini mengkaji sejarah hukum penerapan Al-Rahn di dua negara, yaitu Malaysia dan Indonesia. Malaysia dan Indonesia memiliki akar penerapan hukum Islam yang sama pada masa berseminya kerajaan-kerajaan Islam di wilayah Nusantara. Namun demikian, kedua negara ini memiliki corak sistem hukum yang berbeda pasca kolonialisasi; Inggris menjajah Malaysia dan Belanda menjajah Indonesia. Dua fase tersebut, kerajaan Islam dan kolonialisasi dua Bangsa Eropa (Inggris dan Belanda), turut serta mempengaruhi perkembangan sejarah penerapan Al-Rahn sampai saat ini. Kajian ini dilakukan secara normatif dengan pendekatan komparasi sejarah hukum. Data yang diolah secara kualitatif dalam penelitian ini adalah data-data sekunder berupa dokumen perundang-undangan, buku, dan artikel jurnal berkaitan dengan Al-Rahn. Secara komparatif ditemukan bahwa Al-Rahn secara legal diterapkan di dua negara ini pada masa kerajaan Islam berkembang, namun kemudian surut dan bahkan tenggelam semasa kolonialisasi datang menjajah dua negara tetangga ini. Pengaruh hukum Eropa, baik Common Law atau English Law, sangat kuat sehingga membutuhkan waktu lama sampai tahap di mana Al-Rahn dipraktikkan kembali. Walaupun demikian, praktik Al-Rahn, baik Malaysia dan Indonesia, masih belum memiliki gantungan hukum yang tunggal, namun masih terpencar-pencar di beberapa perundangan dan peraturan.
Dualism and Unworthy Legal Practice: The Marginalization of Women's Rights in Sirri and Early Marriages
Authors: Hasan Abi , Musyahid Achmad , Asman Asman
Published: June 2023

Abstract: Marriage is a constitutional right of Indonesian citizens, but not all marriages end in favour to women. From a legal and normative standpoint, this study examines how sirri and early marriage marginalize women. This article is library research. Datas were collected by conducting study of primary and secondary legal materials. The findings of this study demonstrate that sirri marriage is manifestly ineffective and contrary to the Indonesian Marriage Law. Women in sirri marriages do not have proper inheritance rights because sirri marriages are not recognized by state law, despite the fact that they are valid under religious law. In a similar vein, it appears that women's rights are not guaranteed in early marriage because couples in general lack the capacity and maturity to manage rights, obligations, and roles within the household; even early marriage appears to be "forced."Abstrak: Pernikahan merupakan hak konstitusional warga negara Indonesia. Akan tetapi, tidak semua pernikahan, baik praktik maupun aturan hukumnya menguntungkan bagi semua pihak, terutama bagi perempuan. Artikel ini mengkaji marginalisasi perempuan dalam kasus nikah sirri dan nikah dini dengan perspektif yuridis-normatif. Data-data dikumpulkan dari bahan hukum primer dan sekunder. Hasil dari penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa pernikahan sirri jelas tidak efektif dan cukup menyimpang dari ketentuan Undang-undang Perkawinan Indonesia. Kaum perempuan dalam pernikahan sirri tidak diuntungkan dalam pembagian harta warisan karena pernikahan mereka tidak dikuatkan dengan akta nikah, walaupun pernikahan tersebut dinilai sah menurut hukum agama. Hal yang sama juga terjadi pada pernikahan dini karena hak-hak perempuan pada kenyataannya tidak terjamin. Hal ini disebabkan para pasangan dalam pernikahan dini, umumnya, belum memiliki kapasitas dan kedewasaan yang cukup dalam manajemen hak, kewajiban, dan peran dalam rumah tangga. Pernikahan dini bahkan terkesan sebagai pernikahan yang “dipaksakan”.
The Practice of Marriage of Sampang Shia Refugees in Puspa Agro, Sidoarjo: Barriers and Challenges to Obtaining Family Administration Rights
Authors: Mulyani Maulidia
Published: June 2023

Abstract: This article examines the constraints and challenges of the Sampang Shia refugees in Puspa Agro, Sidoarjo, in carrying out marriages and obtaining family administration rights. The data source in this article is based on field data obtained through observation and interviews and is supported by library data. Using resilience theory, this article seeks to answer two fundamental issues: first, what are the barriers faced by the Shia refugee group in Sampang in entering into marriages and obtaining family administration rights?; second, what is the strategy used by the Sampang Shiite group in obtaining family administration rights? Using socio legal, this article finds that Shi'a refugees face obstacles and challenges in consummating marriages and obtaining family administration rights as a result of the Sunni-Shia conflict that does not subside. They did not receive marriage guidance and also could not get married in front of KUA officers due to the long distances and high costs. In an effort to obtain administrative rights for their family, they made efforts to adapt to the existing situation. They carry out marriage guidance by asking the lokal ustaz for advice, submitting files to make a marriage certificate and taking part in the marriage registration program with an escort. Abstrak: Artikel ini mengkaji kendala dan tantangan para pengungsi Syiah Sampang yang ada di Puspa Agro, Sidoarjo, dalam melakukan perkawinan dan mendapatkan hak administrasi keluarga. Sumber data dalam artikel ini didasarkan pada data-data lapangan yang diperoleh melalui observasi dan wawancara dan didukung dengan data kepustakaan. Menggunakan teori resiliensi, artikel ini hendak menjawab dua hal mendasar: pertama, apa saja kendala yang dihadapi kelompok pengungsi Syiah Sampang dalam melakukan perkawinan dan mendapatkan hak administrasi keluarga?; kedua, bagaimana strategi yang digunakan oleh kelompok Syiah Sampang dalam mendapatkan hak administrasi keluarga? Menggunakan socio legal, artikel ini menemukan bahwa para pengungsi Syi’ah menghadapi kendala dan tantangan dalam melakukan perkawinan dan mendapatkan hak administrasi keluarga sebagai akibat dari adanya konflik Sunni-Syiah yang tidak kunjung mereda. Mereka tidak mendapatkan bimbingan pernikahan dan juga tidak dapat melakukan pernikahan di depan petugas KUA disebabkan jarak tempuh yang jauh dan biaya yang mahal. Dalam upaya untuk mendapatkan hak administrasi keluarga mereka melakukan upaya adaptasi dengan situasi yang ada. Mereka melakukan bimbingan nikah dengan cara meminta nasihat kepada ustadz setempat, menyetorkan berkas untuk pembuatan akta nikah dan mengikuti program isbat nikah dengan pengawalan.
Book of Hadith Index and its Significance in Hadith Research
Authors: RIFA'I LATHIF
Published: June 2023

This study discusses the development of the hadith index book as a product of hadith codification, from the method and systematic aspect of its preparation. The research is qualitative by using literature study method. The data reasearch has been collected from library documents, primary and secondary data. This study is expected to discover the development of the hadith index book, including the methods and systematics used by the scholars in its compiling. The study finds that the existence of the hadith index book is a response from the scholars to the development of hadith codification. Its existence makes the easiness for hadith reviewers to trace the Prophet's hadith referring to its primary source. In addition, hadith index books have a very close significance to hadith research, especially in the context of takhrîj al-ḥadîs.
Dehumanization of Women by Da'iyah (Media Contest in Religious Lectures)
Authors: Najwah Nurun
Published: June 2023

The dehumanization of women in the religious framework in the media is in the form of defining women as "free" human beings. The narrative is strongly framed because it is socialized by the da'i (male) and the da'iyah. There have not been many studies that have paid attention to the substance of religion, how the da'iyah (women preachers) are actively and massively involved in delivering their da'wah material which translates women, not as creatures that need to be humanized based on religious doctrine through the lectures of three da'iyah Mamah Dedeh (Dedeh Rosdiana); dr. Aisyah Dahlan and Dr. Oki Setiana Dewi through the youtube channel in six contents. Three questions were posed: (1) How are (religious) values ​​regarding the dehumanization of women presented in religious lectures in the media; (2) How is the role of da'iyah in influencing the dehumanization of women; (3) How is the media contestation in religious lectures that do not humanize women. Misinterpretations in the form of dehumanization of women by the da'iyah are generally caused by a literal, partial, and superficial reading of religious doctrines. Therefore, although it is realized that the ideology of the media is never in line with religious values ​​that are humanist and full of moral messages, religious lectures in the media need to be studied carefully, so that religious messages that are "more humane for women" through the media are not denied.

Barang perdagangan paling berharga kedua di dunia adalah kopi, yang membantu devisa negara. Menurut data BPS (Badan Pusat Statistik) tahun 2021) terkait produksi kopi, Provinsi Jawa Timur menduduki peringkat ke-16 se-Indoneia untuk produksi kopi. Kebun Bangelan di Desa Bangelan, Kabupaten Malang, merupakan salah satu perkebunan kopi di Jawa Timur. Sebagai kebun percobaan, perkebunan ini didirikan pada tahun 1901. Pemantauan produksi kopi secara terus menerus diperlukan karena hasil Kebun Bangelan bervariasi dari tahun ke tahun. Dalam bidang pertanian, penginderaan jauh dapat digunakan untuk memperkirakan produktivitas tanaman kopi. Tindakan mengumpulkan informasi tentang suatu objek menggunakan perangkat yang tidak bersentuhan fisik langsung dengannya dikenal sebagai penginderaan jauh. Salah satu manfaat penginderaan jauh adalah perolehan data yang cepat, terutama di daerah yang menantang untuk dipelajari secara terestrial. Untuk penelitian ini, digunakan data Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), Modified Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (MNDVI), dan Green Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (GNDVI). Untuk mengatasi kesulitan piksel campuran, Multiple Endmember Spectral Mixture Analysis (MESMA) adalah pengklasifikasi yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menilai ketepatan klasifikasi tutupan lahan MESMA dan mempelajari seberapa produktivitas kopi di Kebun Bangelan. Dalam penelitian ini estimasi produktivitas dihitung dengan menggunakan regresi linier sederhana, polinomial, dan linier berganda. Model estimasi terbaik, sebagaimana ditentukan oleh perhitungan regresi linier sederhana, dihasilkan oleh NDVI, yang memiliki standar deviasi 505,875 kg/Ha dan produktivitas 34,396.369 kg/Ha. Model estimasi terbaik dihasilkan oleh NDVI dengan standar deviaasi sebesar 464,158 kg/Ha dan produktivitas sebesar 34,387.395 kg/Ha, menurut perhitungan menggunakan regresi polinomial. Model estimasi terbaik untuk perhitungan menggunakan regresi linier berganda adalah NDVI, yang memiliki standar deviasi 352,414 kg/Ha dan produktivitas 34,394.658 kg/Ha.
