Authors: Nikam P. P. , Pawar V. S. , Takale M. V. , Patil S. D.
Published: August 2022

In this work, the role of asymmetry in the beam profile of finite Airy-Gaussian (AiG) laser is presented to explore its propagation dynamics in collisionless magnetized plasma. Emphasis is on analyzing the self-trapping condition for both extraordinary (\(E\)) and ordinary (\(O\)) modes of propagation of AiG laser beam. Theoretical formulation is based on obtaining nonlinear coupled differential equations for beam-width parameters in both transverse dimensions of the beam with the help of parabolic equation approach under WKB and paraxial approximations. It is found that asymmetry in the modulation parameters significantly affects self-focusing of finite AiG beam. Moreover, same initial intensity parameter for simultaneous self-trapping of both the modes of propagation is noteworthy.

Integration of livestock farming practices with trees is neglected and poorly explored in the context of climate change (CC) in drylands. However, such knowledge is urgently needed to propose effective strategies in the livestock sector to cope with CC. This study is initiated to characterize the diversity of indigenous integrated livestock systems with trees in drylands of Benin through a survey including 140 smallholder farmers. Data were submitted to a multiple correspondence analysis with hierarchical ascending classification and four types of integrated livestock smallholder farmers have been highlighted. The first type is referred to “Traditional silvopastoral systems”, consisting of farmers owning high tropical livestock unit (26 ± 0.59 TLU). They did not have land ownership and they exploited trees and shrubs in rangelands and protected areas. They used indigenous trees for treating sick animals and feeding. The second type is ‘‘Improved silvopastoral systems’’ with an average of 11 ± 0.21 TLU. They had a land ownership and combined livestock, forage plants and fodder trees in pasturelands. The third type, referred as “Small Integrated agrosilvopastoral systems” consisted of smallholder farmers who integrated agriculture, livestock and tree plantations. They owned a low livestock tropical unit (6 ± 0.24 TLU). The last type qualified as “Large Integrated agrosilvopastoral systems” owned an average of 18 ± 0.34 TLU and cultivated large areas of land. Leguminous trees are used to improve soil fertility and as animal feed. Based on these identified different agroforestry practices of livestock smallholder farmers in the drylands, indigenous community-based adaptation can be designed to face CC.

Published: August 2022

An anomalous left circumflex artery branching off from the right coronary artery is one of the most common congenital coronary artery abnormalities. However, because the incidence of such atypical abnormalities is relatively rare, our clinical understanding of the nuances in patients with such abnormalities remains limited. We present a case of a 73-year-old male with coronary artery disease status-post stenting of an anomalous circumflex artery who subsequently underwent coronary artery bypass grafting and surgical aortic valve replacement with EKG changes post-operatively. He was emergently taken to the cardiac catheterization lab, where catheterization revealed total occlusion of the proximal circumflex artery, just distal to the previous stent. Acute inferior ST-elevation myocardial infarction was suspected to be secondary to intraoperative external manipulation at the site of occlusion in the retro-aortic segment of the vessel. Consequently, in patients with abnormal coronary artery anatomy, it is imperative to monitor for new EKG changes that may be indicative of new ischemia requiring further intervention.

Published: August 2022

Supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) is one of the most common conditions in neonates that require emergency cardiac care. Its incidence in infancy is 0.06 and 0.25 per 1000 patients per year by the age of 1 month and one year respectively.The symptoms are usually nonspecific and include poor feeding, irritability, vomiting, cyanosis, and pallid spells. If the symptoms are unrecognized for hours to days, the infant can present with significant hemodynamic compromise or heart failure. Despite the success of conservative management in most cases, catheter ablation is required in cases of failure of medical treatment.We report a case of SVT ablation using a single catheter in a neonate who presented with tachycardia-induced cardiomyopathy (TIC).

Published: August 2022

Incessant focal atrial tachycardia (FAT) is the most common cause of tachycardia-induced cardiomyopathy in pediatric patients and is usually a reversible condition with effective management of tachycardia, either with medical treatment or ablation. These patients may be misdiagnosed, potentially leading to inappropriate treatment. Diagnosis is often late and should always be suspected in patients with congestive heart failure and unexplained persistent tachycardia. Para-Hisian atrial tachycardia is not an uncommon type of FATs; however, catheter ablation of anterior atrial septum-ATs has been a challenge because of its proximity to the AV node and the complex anatomy of its region.

Published: August 2022

The Reunion 212 action is a socio-religious movement that has generated controversial responses in various circles of society. The problem is caused by the reporting of every online media which is not always neutral and coherent with the existing social reality. In addition, online media are often used to construct a group discourse to the public. This study aims to uncover the motives for reporting the 212 Reunion Action from the online news portal Republika. The research method uses a descriptive qualitative approach and uses critical discourse analysis by Teun A. Van Dijk. The data is taken from Republika's news coverage from November to December about the 212 Reunion Action. The findings of the research show that Republika does not publish the news of the 212 Reunion Action group as a whole. Some of the information that is not uploaded in the narrative of the news text is of propaganda value which aims to form the group's image and as an accommodation effort to reduce the negative public response and the discourse is built positive views. However, the inconsistency of the news has shown the assumption of a shift in the media as a source of information into the media as a space for the existence and contestation of a group. the recommendation is that media repositioning is needed to open a wider space so that the media can again become a source of information for the community that is free of elements or independent media.

Social Media Mining of Long-COVID Self-Medication Reported by Reddit Users: Feasibility Study to Support Drug Repurposing
Authors: Koss Jonathan , Bohnet-Joschko Sabine
Published: August 2022

Background

Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, over 480 million people have been infected and more than 6 million people have died from COVID-19 worldwide. In some patients with acute COVID-19, symptoms manifest over a longer period, which is also called “long-COVID.” Unmet medical needs related to long-COVID are high, since there are no treatments approved. Patients experiment with various medications and supplements hoping to alleviate their suffering. They often share their experiences on social media.

Objective

The aim of this study was to explore the feasibility of social media mining methods to extract important compounds from the perspective of patients. The goal is to provide an overview of different medication strategies and important agents mentioned in Reddit users’ self-reports to support hypothesis generation for drug repurposing, by incorporating patients’ experiences.

Methods

We used named-entity recognition to extract substances representing medications or supplements used to treat long-COVID from almost 70,000 posts on the “/r/covidlonghaulers” subreddit. We analyzed substances by frequency, co-occurrences, and network analysis to identify important substances and substance clusters.

Results

The named-entity recognition algorithm achieved an F1 score of 0.67. A total of 28,447 substance entities and 5789 word co-occurrence pairs were extracted. “Histamine antagonists,” “famotidine,” “magnesium,” “vitamins,” and “steroids” were the most frequently mentioned substances. Network analysis revealed three clusters of substances, indicating certain medication patterns.

Conclusions

This feasibility study indicates that network analysis can be used to characterize the medication strategies discussed in social media. Comparison with existing literature shows that this approach identifies substances that are promising candidates for drug repurposing, such as antihistamines, steroids, or antidepressants. In the context of a pandemic, the proposed method could be used to support drug repurposing hypothesis development by prioritizing substances that are important to users.
Pulsewatch: A Smartwatch System Designed with Stroke Survivors for Continuous Monitoring of Atrial Fibrillation in Older Adults after Stroke or Transient Ischemic Attack (Preprint)

Published: August 2022

BACKGROUND

Atrial fibrillation (AF) prevalence increases with age and may lead to stroke. Therefore, older adults are a group that may benefit most from AF screening. Yet older adult populations tend to lag younger groups in terms of adoption of, and comfort with, the use of mobile health applications. Furthermore, although mobile apps that can detect AF are available to the public, most of them are designed for intermittent AF detection and for younger users. No app designed for long-term AF monitoring has released detailed system design specifications that can handle especially large data collection, especially in this age group.

OBJECTIVE

In collaboration with AF patients and their medical providers, this study aimed to design an innovative smartwatch-based AF monitoring mHealth solution for the older adult population.

METHODS

Based on functionality that patients and caregivers suggested, we designed the Pulsewatch system. The resulting system consisted of linked smartwatch and smartphone applications, a website for data verification, and user data organization on a cloud server. The smartwatch in the Pulsewatch system continuously monitored the pulse rate with embedded AF detection algorithms, and the smartphone in the Pulsewatch system serves as the data transferring hub to our cloud storage server. The user interface of the smartwatch and smartphone apps were specifically designed for older adults at risk for AF. We improved our Pulsewatch system based on the feedback from focus groups consisting of stroke patients and healthcare providers. The Pulsewatch system was used by the intervention group for up to 6 weeks in the two Phases of our randomized clinical trial (NCT03761394).

RESULTS

At the conclusion of Phase 1, 90 trial participants who had used Pulsewatch app and smartwatch for 14 days completed a System Usability Scale (SUS) to assess the usability of the Pulsewatch system; 64% of participants endorsed that the smartwatch app is “easy to use.” For Phases 1 and 2 of the study, we collected 9224.4 hours of watch recordings from participants. The longest recording streak in Phase 2 was 21 days of consecutive recording out of the 30 days of data collection.

CONCLUSIONS

This is one of the first studies to provide a detailed design for a smartphone-smartwatch dyad for ambulatory AF monitoring. In it, we report on the system’s usability and opportunities to increase the acceptability of mHealth solutions among older patients with cognitive impairment.

Authors: Sündermann Oliver , Ong Wen Yi
Published: August 2022

BACKGROUND

Body image concerns are prevalent among young adults and digital mobile health (mHealth) applications are cost-effective and scalable interventions.

OBJECTIVE

To examine the effectiveness of a mHealth application in improving body image and self-compassion in young adults

METHODS

This randomised controlled trial (RCT) examined the effectiveness of a self-guided mHealth application in improving body image and self-compassion in university students. Participants (N=310) were randomized to a body image and self-compassion 9-day self-guided mHealth application (N=149), and to an active-waitlist control group (N=161), where participants completed a similarly structured 9-day program with daily brief exercises on cooperation.

RESULTS

The intervention group reported significant reductions in body dissatisfaction, and improvements in body appreciation and self-compassion, as compared to the active wait-list control groups. Effects were maintained at 4-week follow-up for females, but not in males. Body image risk factors were also significantly reduced for females at post-intervention, and at 4-week follow-up, as compared to the active wait-list control group.

CONCLUSIONS

The current study provides preliminary evidence for a self-guided mHealth application in improving body image concerns in young adults. Future studies should include longer follow-ups, and examine its effects in the wider populations of young adults.

The interaction of plants and microorganisms in the rhizospheres and non-rhizospheres of plants is well studied and mastered in the terrestrial environment. In general, given the rhizosphere effect exclusively defining the effectiveness of root exudates to promote multiplication, development and microbial growth in the rhizosphere zones, studies unanimously tend to report that the microbial biomass is rather high in the rhizosphere than in the non-rhizosphere. However, the trend may change in the marine environment. This study was conducted in both the rhizosphere and non-rhizosphere of the mangrove species Rhizophora mucronata at different depths ranging from 0-10 cm, to assess the bacterial community in the rhizosphere and non-rhizosphere and to also address the profile of bacterial community changes. The result showed no difference regarding the bacterial abundance in the rhizosphere and in the non-rhizosphere. However, the abundance of bacteria at 0-5 cm depth was significantly higher in rhizosphere and non-rhizosphere. This could be attributed to the large amount of nutrients available in the surface layer. The unequal distribution of nutrients in the rhizosphere and non-rhizosphere of the mangrove species Rhizophora mucronata could be the consequences of mineralization, immobilization of nutrients in the soil and especially root exudation. The general results of this study can be summarized by showing that if the abundance of bacteria in the rhizosphere zones of terrestrial plants is often high, the trend may be different in aquatic plants, more particularly mangroves, which constitute a separate ecosystem.

One of the most principal sources of Sunni-Shia conflict is theÂ claim aboutthe presence of'tahrÄ«f Al-Qur'an', or the distortion in the Qur'an, in many Shia literatures of Qur'an exegesis books.Â The claim ends in causing many Shia Muslims to suffer discrimination. For example, they are believed to have a different version of the Qurâ€™an and the doctrin ofÂ taqiyyahwith which they the true nature of their belif. This study focuses on the works ofÂ Abu al-Hasan â€˜Ali bin Ibrahim al-QummiÂ which are considered to be the main reference for accusing Shia Muslims of distorting some Qurâ€™anic verses(tahrÄ«f).Â This study aims to review the thought ofÂ al-QummiaboutÂ tahrÄ«f al-Qurâ€™anas he claimed.Â This is library research using content analysis.The research found thatÂ al-Qummiwhen developing the concept ofÂ 'tahrÄ«f Al-Qur'an'focused on exegetical exercises, not on actual distortion of the Qurâ€™anic texts.This finding was based on the fact that the term â€˜tahrifâ€™ which that some classical ulema (figures) of Shia Muslims made did not deal with distortion of the Qurâ€™anic verses (the corruption of texts), but with Qurâ€™an interpretations which contradict the intended meaning of the Qurâ€™anic verses (the corruption of meaning).
Becoming an Indonesian Muslim: The Idea of Religious Nationalism K.H. Ahmad Wahid Hasyim 1945-1953

This study aims to see the idea of religious nationalism K.H. A. Wahid Hasyim on Islam and Indonesia. K.H. A. Wahid Hasyim is an interesting figure in the midst of tug-of-war between the interests of making Indonesia an Islamic state and a secular state at the beginning of the founding of Indonesia, the idea of ​​KH. A. Wahid Hasyim became the middle ground. This study raises the main question, namely how the relationship between religion and the state according to K.H. Wahid Hasyim in the Indonesian context. This research is based on text reading and had analyzed by content analysis. This study concludes that KH. A. Wahid Hasyim is consistent in Islamic thought and prioritizes the unity and integrity of the nation. According to K.H. A. Wahid Hasyim, the state serves the religious needs of the people in accordance with the Pancasila basis. In matters of an individual nature (private), the government should not interfere. Meanwhile, the state may regulate issues of a social nature (public). Kiai Wahid is of the opinion that the secularistic relationship between religion and the state is only a theory, and has never actually happened. Islam still needs the state to protect the freedom of its citizens to practice their religion, while the state needs religious legitimacy to make a set of regulations in order to achieve benefit. Thoughts K.H. A. Wahid Hasyim belongs to the category of thinkers who relate religion and state as a mutualistic symbiotic relationship, where state and religion support each other. On the same dimension, its relevance lies in its idea of ​​prioritizing common interests over personal interests. Kiai Wahid's idea of​​religious nationalism is still relevant today. Especially in the context of maintaining the relationship between the state and religion, and giving the government a share to participate in efforts to facilitate its citizens in practicing their religion.
The Position of Kejawen in the Indonesian Constitution
Authors: Kristina Ayu
Published: August 2022

The paradigms of world religions often influence Indonesia's general understanding of religion. Indigenous religious practices are often labeled as animistic practices. The adherents of the Indigenous religion are often regarded as worshipers of trees, mountains, and the like. Such is the case with adherents of the Indigenous religion in Java Island (Kejawen). From the results of a literature study that utilizes various literature and paradigms related to the existence of religion in Indonesia, this study tries to look further into the position of Kejawen in the Indonesian constitution. The results of this study found that Kejawen adherents still experience many discriminatory actions due to the lack of comprehensive understanding of the Indonesian people regarding the importance of symbolic recognition and the resources of Kejawen teachings. In addition, Kejawen adherents also feel they have a historical burden because they are not considered adherents of a religion "recognized" by the State. Kejawen is often associated with occult and shamanic traditions. The Indonesian constitution clearly states that the State must be fair in guaranteeing and giving freedom to every citizen to choose, adhere to, and practice their religions or beliefs. Kejawen, as part of the Indigenous religion, should also be protected and guaranteed its rights and freedoms and placed in an equal position with other religions.
Religion, Media and Piety Construction: A Study of the Web Series Entitled Ustad Millenial
Authors: Aula Annidaul
Published: August 2022

This article aims to expand the discussion of the identity of piety in the web series with the Islamic genre, Ustad Milenial, which airs on WeTV and Iflix. Identity is a crucial problem in social life. In the web series, the pious identity of a muslim is different from the identity of piety shown in previous Islamic popular cinema, both in terms of story plots, characters, and symbols used in building a pious identity. The focus of the discussion in this article is how the identity of piety is built in this web series, and why is the identity of piety in this web series described in such a way? Based on a qualitative approach with a constructivist paradigm, and discourse analysis, I argue that there is an alternative to the identity of piety depicted in the Ustad Milenial web series. The results of this study indicate that the identity of piety in the Ustad Milenial web series is constructed through the appearance of youth muslims who are more trendy and hits, the noble ideals of a muslim in maintaining Islam, a strict religious education background for an authority, devotion and affection for parents, religious knowledge of youth muslim, the use of digital technology as a medium of da'wah, love stories that are identical with young people, and the inter-religious tolerance.

Instead, it contained the perilousÂ  entity for Muslims, particularly in their identityâ€”knowing the genealogy was from Western culture. On the contrary, tafsir was far from the relativity, native Islamic product of history,Â  and subsequently being the only way to touch Quran. No more appropriate way to understand Quran, Adnin Said, except tafsir. Along the histroy of Muslims, tafsir was absolutely fruitfull. Understanding the fact, thus, the article tries to evaluate the sources used by Adnin, till refused Quranic hermeneutics and embraced tafsir as something sacred with questions how far he understood them and picked them up from.

The trend of increasing the number of disputes dispute assignment in religious courts at least shows that the dispute over the distribution of the estate remains a special polemic for people's lives. The unification of unruly inheritance was also a contributing factor to the increasing number of petitions of the heir to the court. Indeed, the problem of distribution of intangible assets that is not done fairly will potentially damage fraternity. To avoid such problems, it is necessary to look back at the wisdom of our ancestors in addressing the problems of the inheritance law dispute. One can be found in the manuscript "that will be the inheritance of the dead" can at least be used as a jurisprudence to the settlement of the estate dispute. Hopefully, with such jurisprudence will be able to provide alternative solutions for the establishment of heirs. Moreover, with the discovery of the jurisprudence records will also be used as a consideration material to immediately realize the unification of the inheritance law, hopefully will also be able to reduce property disputes.

Authors: Sumantri Irman
Published: August 2022

The review of Islam and adat is a dialogue about the encounter between religion and mores. In this discussion, there is a relationship that is in line between them. This research attempts to examine the dialog between Islam and mores in the community in Kampug Urug, Bogor Regency. The approach used in this study is a qualitative research. In this study, the results indicate a strong synergy between the strength of heart in carrying out activities as well as procedures and obedience in religion. The existence of this synergy serves to unite the two of them in carrying out life. Islam is applied in life and still permanently maintains the prevailing customs, then it is transformed into the meaning of faith and tawhid. Thus, the dialog between Islam and mores of the community of Kampung Urug shows that there is a tendency that rises a new culture with local nuances. This does not mean that Islam is not preserved its purity, but is implemented in local wisdom. Even though they accept Islamic teachings as a belief, they do not eliminate their local ancestral traditions and accept modern currents.

Following the recent changes in laws regarding national identity card for the adherents of indigenous beliefs in Indonesia, this study tries to examine 21 types of regulations to see how freedom of indigenous beliefs is in Indonesia from their adherents’ perspective. This is done through conducting semi-structured, in-depth interviews with three groups of indigenous beliefs in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. The types of regulations examined are taken from The Religion and State Project Round 3 by Jonathan Fox of Bar-Ilan University that has been used widely to gather cross-country data on religious freedom. The result of the interviews shows that there are at least four restrictive regulation points, namely on places of worship, surveillance, antireligious campaign and religious education.
Intensification of mass and heat transfer at the bottom of a stirred tank reactor by a horizontal tubular baffle

Published: August 2022

In an attempt to obviate the costly and protracted separation of final
products from powdered catalyst particles in stirred slurry catalytic
reactors, the electrochemical technique was used in the present study to
determine mass transfer in a stirred vessel equipped with different
baffle configurations placed at the tank bottom. Additionally, the
effect of baffle tube diameters, as well as the impeller speed and
geometry were examined. Mass transfer data obtained were correlated
using the governing dimensionless groups from which heat transfer rates
can be deduced by analogy. Results revealed the merits of using tubular
baffles in terms of mass transfer and consequently heat transfer
enhancement. Besides acting as a catalyst support where liquid-solid
diffusion-controlled catalytic reactions, electrochemical reactions,
photochemical reactions, and immobilized enzyme-catalyzed biochemical
reactions take place, a tubular baffle can act also as a built-in
cooler, in case of highly exothermic reactions to avoid hot spots and
catalyst deactivation.
Failure analysis of the PPS-based bag filters in coal-fired power plants：a surface structural evolution insight

Published: August 2022

Owing to the complicated environments, the service life of bag-filter or
electrostatic-bag composite precipitators with polyphenylene sulfide
(PPS)-based bag-filter materials is greatly deviated from the ideal
time. In this paper, the structural transformation of PPS-based bag
filter materials collected from the coal-fired power plants with
different loading units were investigated systematically. As the SO2
content increases, the surface evolution of PPS fibers from smoothness
to crack occurs.The major reason for the failure of PPS-based bag
filters is that working temperature (T) often passes through acid dew
gas point (Ta), and the SO3 would be produced during the condensing of
H2SO4 when T is lower than Ta. This work discloses the actual structural
evolution of PPS and some corresponding rules under the complicated
corrosive gases with high temperatures, which provides a guidance for
prolonging the service life of PPS-based bag filters during the usage of
coal-fired power plant
A low-power and area-efficient ultrasound receiver using beamforming SAR ADC with CDAC combined delay cell structure for 3-D imaging systems
Authors: Lee Seungah , Yun Soohyun , Bae Joonsung
Published: August 2022

We present a low-power area-efficient subarray beamforming receiver (RX)
structure for a miniaturized 3-D ultrasound imaging system. Given that
the delay-and-sum (DAS) and digitization functions consume most of the
area and power in the receiver, the beamforming successive approximation
register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter (ADC) shares its capacitive
digital-to-analog converter (CDAC) with the delay cells. As a result,
the delay cells implemented with capacitors are embedded in the CDAC
with significant area reduction, further eliminating the need for
power-hungry ADC buffers. Furthermore, the dual reference 10-bit SAR ADC
reduces the area of CDAC by 32 times, achieving a switching energy
reduction of 98.3%, compared to the conventional SAR ADC. As a result,
the proposed beamforming SAR ADC, simulated using a 0.18 μm CMOS
process, consumes 230 μW per channel, significantly reducing the per
channel capacitance.
Papillary fibroelastoma of the pulmonary valve: a 14-year follow-up
Authors: Engster Pedro Henrique de Borba , Alsidawi Said
Published: August 2022

Primary cardiac tumors are exceedingly rare. Among them, papillary
fibroelastomas (PFEs) are the third most common. These tumors are often
incidental findings but can also precipitate a myriad of clinical
presentations, mainly embolic events. Most common in the left-sided
valves, PFEs rarely occur in the right side of the heart. They are
usually resected surgically following diagnosis, thwarting assessment of
their natural history. We present the case of a woman diagnosed with
pulmonary valve PFE following recurrent pulmonary embolism who did not
undergo surgery, allowing for an extended follow-up of the condition.
A surgical algorithm for the management of retrosternal goiters
Authors: Low Tsu-Hui (Hubert) , Petrides George , Inculet Richard , Fung Kevin , Nichols Anthony , MacNeil S. Danielle , Yoo John
Published: August 2022

Key points: - The heterogeneity of retrosternal goiter size and
location, nearby anatomical structures, and evolving surgical techniques
means selecting the most appropriate individualised surgical approach
remains challenging. - Although most retrosternal goiters can be removed
transcervically, a small proportion of patients fulfill anatomical and
radiological criteria for concurrent extracervical approaches based on
decades of experience at the London Health Sciences Centre. - Anterior
goiters above the level of the pericardium were resected using cervical
thyroidectomy with either mediastinoscopic-assisted delivery or cervical
thyroidectomy with video- assisted thyroidectomy (VATS) - Anterior
goiters extending beyond the pericardium require median sternotomy to
facilitate sufficient vascular control and exposure. - Posteriorly
extending goiters can be managed using trans-thoracic approaches
including lateral thoracotomy or VATS.
