Published: November 2024

Lipase from Moraxella sp. SBE01 is an expression of the gene encoding lipase. Detection and characterization of the Moraxella sp. SBE01 lipase coding gene is necessary for large-scale lipase production through genetic engineering. This study aimed to observe the molecular weight, amino acid sequence, length, and conserved amino acids in the DNA encoding the lipase gene, with the goal of identifying and characterizing the lipase-coding gene from Moraxella sp. SBE01. The primer design process was conducted to amplify the lipase gene from Moraxella sp. SBE01 using specialized software for sequence alignment and phylogenetic analysis. Amplification was carried out using PCR with the designed primer, forward primer (GTC ATG ATG TAC TTC CAY GGN GGN GG), reverse primer (GGT TGC CGC CGG CDS WRT CNC C). PCR was carried out under pre-denatured conditions at 95°C (3 minutes), followed by 30 cycles of denaturation at 95°C, annealing at 66°C (30 seconds), 70°C elongations (1 minute) and final elongation of 70°C (10 minutes). The PCR results were electrophoresed using 1% agarose gel with a 1 kb DNA marker. The PCR results were sequenced and analyzed for gene and amino acid sequences and the type of lipase expressed. Sequencing resulted in 387 bp of the nucleotide sequence. The gene and amino acid sequences from Moraxella sp. SBE01 had high homology with the gene and amino acid sequences from Moraxella sp. strain TA144. The lipase gene encodes a protein consisting of 129 amino acids and contains a conserved HGG (His-Gly-Gly) motif, which is characteristic of lipases in family IV, also known as the hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) family. This conserved sequence suggests that the lipase shares structural and functional similarities with other enzymes in the HSL family, playing a key role in lipid metabolism.

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a condition marked by excessive fat accumulation in the liver and poses a significant health challenge. The leaves of Blumea balsamifera and Sargassum aquifolium have been reported to have anti-atherogenic effects. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of B. balsamifera extract (BBLE) and S. aquifolium extract (SAE) in preventing and treating liver fat accumulation in Wistar rats induced by a high-cholesterol diet through the expression of the AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK)/ Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1)/peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) pathway, and the leptin receptor. The experimental design of this study is laboratory-based, involving, 20 Wistar rats were fed a high-cholesterol diet over a period of 21 days. The rats were divided into four groups for the evaluation of BBLE and SAE effect: negative control (P0): induced with a high-cholesterol diet + distilled water, positive control (P1): induced with a high-cholesterol diet + simvastatin, P2: induced with a high-cholesterol diet + 4 mg/kg/bw BBLE, and P3: induced with a high-cholesterol diet + 4 mg/kg/bw BBLE and 4 mg/kg/bw SAE. The treatment duration extended over three months. Immunohistochemical analyses were performed on liver tissues to measure AMPK, SIRT1, PPARγ, and leptin receptor expression. The results indicated that leptin expression was lower in the BBLE+SAE group compared to the simvastatin group, and differences were significant between the BBLE and BBLE+SAE groups. No significant differences were noted in AMPK, SIRT1, and PPARγ expression between the simvastatin and BBLE+SAE groups (p≥0.05). In conclusion, BBLE and SAE effectively reduce liver lipid accumulation and enhance fat metabolism in hypercholesterolemic rats.

Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a condition of gradual or chronic decline in kidney function, which is quite severe and caused by various kidney diseases, including urinary obstruction. This disease is progressive and generally irreversible. CKD requires kidney replacement therapy, one of which is continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). To determine the prevalence and risk factors for End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) in patients undergoing CAPD due to urinary obstruction. We performed a retrospective cohort with a cross-sectional study was conducted using secondary data from medical record data of ESRD patients with CAPD accompanied by urinary obstruction at Dr. Saiful Anwar General Hospital, Malang, Indonesia. The prevalence of CKD in patients with CAPD accompanied by urinary obstruction was 6,50% and dominated by males (57,8%) with an age range of 41-50 years (26%). The majority of comorbidities are severely high the Body Mass Index (BMI) (89,0%) and hypertension (80,8%). The location of obstruction is mostly unilateral (5,64%) with mild levels (4,06%). Urinary obstruction is a frequent clinical finding in CKD patients with CAPD. The most common risk factor in this study was hypertension. The prevalence and comorbidities among CAPD patients with Urinary obstruction (UO) are better understood because to this study. It is necessary to recognise its limitations, particularly the small sample size and single-centre design. Future studies should involve more centres and larger patient groups in order to provide a more thorough knowledge of the mechanisms behind the high survival rates among CAPD patients.

Since the economic slowdown in late 2020s, economies of CEE have been going through a difficult time. Their economic processes were strongly affected by external factors: COVID-19 and the war in Ukraine. The year 2023 was not a time of prosperity, either. Economic slowdown, or even recession in some countries, with persistent high inflation disrupted the economic development in CEE and especially the situation of consumers more deeply than in 2020. In such conditions, Poland’s economy coped relatively well. Baltic states are still struggling with recession. By the end of 2023, some signs could be observed indicating a reversal of the downward trend. This observation has been confirmed by the latest business and consumer research results. It should be expected that 2024 will be a period of a rebound from the downturn and coming back to the path of long-term growth in the CEE countries.

Published: November 2024

This paper aims to discuss trends in economic growth and selected dimensions of economic and social inequalities in 11 Central and Eastern European (CEE) countries. It is based on the analysis of available data and conclusions drawn from the research review. In the deliberations, the differentiation of the situation between the described countries is presented against the average situation in the European Union, and in several cases also against the background of other selected groups of countries. In recent decades, the CEE countries have reached a level of economic development approaching that of richer Western European countries, while income inequality has increased. In terms of wages, access to education, skills or health status, there is a greater variation between the CEE countries and between different groups in the population of these countries (younger versus older people, women versus men and people with various levels of formal education). To maintain the potential for growth in the future, it is worth addressing these inequalities.

Published: November 2024

Background: Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs) pose a significant health challenge globally, particularly in countries underwent rapid demographic transitions like Bangladesh. Rural populations, including postmenopausal women, are disproportionately affected by NCDs due to various socio-economic and lifestyle factors. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of NCD risk factors among postmenopausal women in a rural village. This cross-sectional study was conducted in a rural village of Gazipur, Bangladesh from November 2023 to February 2024.
Materials and methods: A sample of 108 postmenopausal women was selected using a convenience sampling technique. Data on socio-demographic characteristics, lifestyle habits and health outcomes were collected through structured interviews and assessments. Chi-square tests were employed to analyze the associations between sociodemographic variables, lifestyle factors and the presence of NCDs.
Results: The study revealed a high prevalence of NCD risk factors among postmenopausal rural women. Engaging in physical activity for 2-4 hours daily was significantly associated with both Diabetes Mellitus (p 0.04) and Hypertension (p 0.006). Similarly, occupation showed a significant association with Hypertension (p 0.012) with housewives exhibiting higher prevalence rates. However, there were no significant associations between salt intake, sweet consumption and the presence of NCDs.
Conclusion: This study highlights the urgent need for targeted interventions to address NCD risk factors among postmenopausal rural women in Bangladesh. Strategies focusing on promoting physical activity and addressing occupational factors could help mitigate the burden of NCDs in this vulnerable population. By understanding the socio-demographic and lifestyle determinants of NCDs, policymakers and healthcare providers can develop effective public health interventions tailored to the needs of rural communities.

Allocation of Public Expenditure: Some Realities for Development Planning in Bangladesh
Authors: Khan Adil Mohammed
Published: November 2024

Allocation of ‘Public Expenditure’ is very important for a developing country like Bangladesh, where development growth has not taken place in a homogenous way across the country and the regional divide in terms of development is quite significant as well. This paper attempts to analyze the public expenditure pattern of Bangladesh, especially in the distribution of Budget and to analyze the spatial disparity in public expenditure within different regions of Bangladesh. Data on sectoral allocation of national budget as well as the regional pattern of distribution of budget have been analyzed in this paper. Location Quotient (LQ) Analysis, Gini Index, Kuznets Ratio are used for measuring regional variation in budget distribution across the country. This paper reveals that, the western divisions of Barisal, Khulna and Rajshahi divisions should be given special attentions in the distribution of Budget to ensure ‘fair’ share of budgets for development programmes as these regions are quite lagging behind in terms of allocation of budget. Special programs relating to poverty reduction in the forms of social safety net distribution may be increased to the districts of these divisions for reducing the development gap within the country.

Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is the most common genetically inherited kidney disease and the fourth leading cause of renal replacement therapy worldwide. It is characterized by the development of multiple cysts in the kidneys and in other organs, the increase in renal volume and the progressive loss of renal function. ADPKD outcome seems to be sensitive to hormonal fluctuations, particularly those of sex hormones. Despite the limited literature available, this review presents the first comprehensive overview of contraception and hormonal replacement therapy in women with ADPKD, delving into the risks and benefits associated with different contraceptive methods, including hormonal, intrauterine devices, and non-hormonal approaches. It also explores personalized strategies for contraception based on the severity of renal disease and the presence of comorbidities.
Although the protective role of female sex hormones in slowing the progression of renal failure is acknowledged, hormonal therapy in women with ADPKD remains intricate and challenging due to its potential impact on liver disease progression. Women with ADPKD typically experience a slower progression of renal disease compared to men, largely influenced by hormonal dynamics.
This literature review underscores the importance of a multidisciplinary assessment and a thorough patient discussion to identify the most suitable contraceptive method for each woman affected by polycystic kidney disease.

Published: November 2024

Preimplantation diagnosis process for couples with polycystic kidney disease involves several steps: genetic and gynecological counseling, in vitro fertilization (IVF/ICSI), embryo biopsy, genetic analysis, selection of healthy embryos and implantation.
The importance of preimplantation diagnosis for couples affected by polycystic kidney disease (PKD) lies in several key factors:
 

Prevention of Inherited Disease: PKD is a genetic disorder with a high likelihood of being passed from parent to offspring. Preimplantation diagnosis offers couples the opportunity to identify and avoid passing on the disease to their children.
Family Planning Options: By undergoing preimplantation diagnosis, couples can make better decisions about their family planning options. They can select embryos that do not carry the PKD gene mutation and reduce the risk of having a child affected by the disease.
Emotional Burden Reduction: PKD can lead to significant emotional burdens for affected individuals and their families. Preimplantation diagnosis provides a proactive approach to avoiding these burdens by preventing the transmission of the disease to next generations.
Enhanced Reproductive Choices: With preimplantation diagnosis, couples have greater control over their reproductive choices. They can pursue assisted reproductive techniques such as in vitro fertilization (IVF) while simultaneously minimizing the risk of passing on PKD to their offspring.
Improved Pregnancy Outcomes: By selecting embryos that are free of the PKD gene mutation, couples increase the likelihood of having a healthy pregnancy and a child free of the disease. It can lead to improved pregnancy outcomes and the birth of healthy children. Overall, preimplantation diagnosis offers hope and empowerment to couples affected by PKD by providing them with the means to build a family while minimizing the risk of passing the disease to next generations.
An Integrated Stochastic Optimization and Simulation Approach to SERU vs. Assembly Line Manufacturing Systems
Authors: Egilmez Gokhan , Kirac Emre , Khalafallah Sami
Published: November 2024

This research compares SERU manufacturing systems to traditional assembly lines, focusing on the impact of uncertainty in task processing time on production output. The study considers worker skill levels and team identity, using a stochastic mixed integer linear programming approach to model uncertainty and optimize workforce allocation. Discrete event simulation is then integrated to evaluate performance using five key performance indicators (KPIs). Results show that SERU systems outperform traditional lines in terms of throughput when uncertainty is considered. The integrated approach provides more reliable performance data than deterministic optimization alone. The study also highlights the advantages of SERU systems when worker skill levels and team identity are factored in. This research fills a gap in the literature by proposing a stochastic optimization approach that considers uncertainty and worker skill levels, and by integrating stochastic optimization with simulation for comprehensive analysis. This approach provides valuable guidance for production managers in optimizing production systems.

Agrarian Conflicts After the Establishment of the Land Bank Agency in Indonesia
Authors: Permadi Iwan , Fadhli Rahman Arif
Published: November 2024

The establishment of the Land Bank in Indonesia may lead to conflicts of interest and the existence of customary land may be forgotten for reasons of land stateisation. The process of acquiring customary land for reasons of stateisation may affect the legal protection of indigenous peoples' rights. This article examines agrarian conflicts after the establishment of the Land Bank Agency and the legal protection of indigenous peoples' land. This research is examined using the normative juridical method with a statutory approach. The results of the study found that the concept of the Land Bank is in contrast to agrarian reform in terms of land acquisition operations, because land can be obtained through the transfer of land ownership by the state which is intended for investment and infrastructure development. The government needs to improve the land sector Job Creation Law and the legal regulations of the Land Bank, the government must revise the rules related to the Land Bank so that this institution can maintain a balance of land utilisation for various interests fairly. The Land Bank should be a representative of the state to protect vulnerable groups of people, one of which is indigenous peoples. Then the community must be pro-active in applying for a Material Test on articles that have negative potential, especially the regulation of land stateisation in the Job Creation Law and the legal rules regarding the Land Bank in an effort to consolidate guarantees and justifications for land rights over indigenous peoples.
The daʿwa Qur'an? Exploring the Evolution of ʿAbdullah Yūsuf ʿAlī’s Translation
Authors: Ramsey Charles
Published: November 2024

The Holy Quran: Text, Translation and Commentary by ʿAbdullah Yūsuf ʿAlī (1872–1953) was prepared for daʿwa purposes, to spread the message and guidance of Islam in the English language. The subsequent editorial changes to this translation made in editions published decades later problematise the use of translation in propagating a particular interpretative framework and reflect developments in the practice of daʿwa and in interpretive methodologies during the second half of the twentieth century. This article argues that these interventions in Yusuf Ali's original translation were less to do with the English rendition of the text, and more to do with the paratext that structures the text and filters the experience of the reader.

Authors: Rahmanti Virginia Nur , Agustia Dian , Setiawan Achdiar Redy
Published: November 2024

Abstract: Proposing A Nonmainstream Concept of Corporate Social Responsibility through Islamic Perspective
Purpose: This article aims to criticize the concept of CSR from an Islamic perspective.
Method: Researchers employed hyper-post phenomenology as a methodological approach.
Results: The results show that the practice of CSR by Islamic banks in Indonesia has shifted from social to material goals. CSR is only a legitimization tool for "sharia" and from Islamic banks to reap greater profits.
Novelty: This research uses the Islamic paradigm, which calls for interdimensional unity by placing spiritualism as its epicenter.
Contribution: This article creates a policy framework for integrating social programs with Islamic banks' objectives to achieve falah.
Abstrak: Mengusulkan Konsep Tanggung Jawab Sosial Perusahaan yang Nonmainstream dalam Perspektif Islam
Tujuan: Artikel ini bertujuan untuk mengritisi konsep CSR dari perspektif islam.
Metode: Metode penelitian ini adalah hyper-post-fenomenologi
Hasil: Hasil menunjukkan bahwa praktik CSR oleh bank syariah di Indonesia telah terbukti terjadi pergeseran dari tujuan sosial ke tujuan materi. CSR nyatanya hanya menjadi alat legitimasi atas "sharia" dan dari bank-bank Islam untuk meraup laba yang lebih besar.
Kebaruan: Penelitian ini menggunakan paradigma Islam yang menghendaki adanya kesatuan antardimensi dengan menempatkan spiritualisme sebagai episentrumnya.
Kontribusi: Artikel ini berkontribusi pada pembuatan kerangka kebijakan untuk mengintergrasikan program sosial dengan tujuan bank syariah sendiri, sehingga dapat tercapai falah.

Advanced bioengineering strategies broaden the therapeutic landscape for corneal failure
Authors: Al Monla Reem , Daien Vincent , Michon Frederic
Published: November 2024

The cornea acts as the eye foremost protective layer and is essential for its focusing power. Corneal blindness may arise from physical trauma or conditions like dystrophies, keratitis, keratoconus, or ulceration. While conventional treatments involve medical therapies and donor allografts—sometimes supplemented with keratoprostheses—these options are not suitable for all corneal defects. Consequently, the development of bioartificial corneal tissue has emerged as a critical research area, aiming to address the global shortage of human cornea donors. Bioengineered corneas hold considerable promise as substitutes, with the potential to replace either specific layers or the entire thickness of damaged corneas. This review first delves into the structural anatomy of the human cornea, identifying key attributes necessary for successful corneal tissue bioengineering. It then examines various corneal pathologies, current treatments, and their limitations. Finally, the review outlines the primary approaches in corneal tissue engineering, exploring cell-free, cell-based, and scaffold-based options as three emerging strategies to address corneal failure.
