Authors: Hameed Falah Mahmood , Kadhim Fateh , Al-Tomah Hayder Mohammed Mohsen , Altaee Raeed
Published: May 2024

The Aim of Study: The current investigation was designed to compare the anesthetic and physiological effects of ketamine with different pre-anesthetics protocol. 
Methods: A total of twelve healthy male rabbits were chosen for the clinical anesthetic trial. Animals were presented to the faculty of veterinary medicine at Kerbala University for skin wound procedures and separated into two equal groups 6 rabbits each (group A and group B). Rabbits in group A were administered an intramuscular injection of xylazine (10mg/kg BW) followed by ketamine (50 mg/kg  I.M) after 10 minutes. while those in group B were injected with fentanyl (0.04 mg/kg BW, I.M) first plus ketamine (50 mg/kg  I.M) after 10 minutes. The physiological and anesthetic parameters to assess the complications that associated with anesthetic, were recorded and analyzed.
Results: The level of induction and recovery varied significantly (P<0.05) among the groups. Compared to group B, group A had a considerably (P<0.05) shorter induction time. Furthermore, group A's mean time for losing pedal reflex revealed a substantial (P<0.05) decrease. Between-group differences in the responses to the pain test and muscular relaxation were statistically significant (P<0.05). Group A experienced a substantially longer (P<0.05) induction period, surgical anesthetic duration, and recovery period than group B. No rabbits died as a result of the anesthetic or the recuperation.
Conclusion: Compared to Fentanyl-ketamine (FK) combination anesthesia, administration of Xylazine with ketamine (XK) apparently does not influence the physiological parameters.  Additionally, this method provides a very successful anesthetic procedure for a flawless induction, suitable muscle relaxation, extended anesthesia, and a painless recovery.

Negative Theologie und Korankritik bei Nikolaus von Kues
Authors: Leppin Volker
Published: May 2024

Nikolaus von Kues hat mit De pace fidei 1453 und der Cribratio Alkorani 1459/60 zwei sehr unterschiedliche Schriften zur Auseinandersetzung mit dem Islam geschrieben. Während erstere das Islamverständnis unter dem Motto „una religio in rituum varietate“ in ein Gesamtverständnis der Religionen einordnet, das deren friedliche Aussöhnung betont, stellt die Cribratio eine kritische und polemische Auseinandersetzung mit dem Koran dar. Beide Schriften liegen aber nicht so weit auseinander, wie es scheinen mag, denn sie verbindet der Grundgedanke, dass die eine, philosophisch als wahr erweisliche Religion sich im Christentum verwirklicht habe.
Christologische Aspekte in der islamischen Mystik
Authors: Dilek Selman
Published: May 2024

In Ibn al-ʿArabīs Lehre von der Einheit des Seins, die den philosophischen Rahmen des Sufitums in der Geschichte des islamischen Denkens darstellt, stellen Gottesbotschaft und Offenbarung einen der zentralen Schwerpunkte dar. In seinem Werk Fuṣūṣ al-ḥikam wird sein neues Verständnis der Gottesbotschaft besonders deutlich in seiner Auseinandersetzung mit der Natur Jesu. Die vorliegende Studie untersucht die Interpretationen von Ahmed Avni Konuk, einem Vertreter der Tradition Ibn al-ʿArabīs im 20. Jahrhundert, in Bezug auf Jesus im Besonderen und des christlichen Glaubens im Allgemeinen in seinem Kommentar zu Fuṣūṣ al-ḥikam. Zunächst wird sein Verständnis der Dreifaltigkeit behandelt, bei dem er seine Idee der Manifestation erläutert, die die Einheit von Gott und Welt begründet. Obwohl Ibn al-ʿArabī keine theologischen Vergleiche anstellt, verleiht Konuk der Trinität eine mystische Bedeutung, die sowohl mit der christlichen Theologie übereinstimmt, als auch von ihr abweicht. Das zweite Thema sind die Ansätze zur göttlichen Identität Jesu. Da Ibn al-ʿArabī die Merkmale des Wesens Jesu im Koran neu interpretiert, beinhaltet dies auch die Begriffe von Wort, Geist und Diener. Darüber hinaus nimmt Jesus in seiner Idee der Gottesfreundschaft, einer weiteren zentralen Lehre, eine besondere Stellung ein. Denn am Ende der Geschichte wird er als der letzte Gottesfreund kommen, der alle ihm vorhergehenden geistigen Tugenden in sich vereint. Die Abhandlung schließt mit einer Betrachtung des beachtenswerten Ansatzes von Konuk zur christlichen Theologie, der auf Ibn al-ʿArabīs Seinslehre basiert und im Kontext einer möglichen sufischen Christologie steht.
Der faktische Bezugszwang in der aktienrechtlichen Kapitalerhöhung
Authors: Groos Niclas
Published: May 2024

The dissertation examines whether and to what extent the consequences of a low subscription price for existing shareholders affect the legality of rights offerings. The so-called de facto subscription obligation is based on the consideration that shareholders could be de facto forced to exercise their subscription rights in order to avoid dilution. The author examines the principles, prerequisites and consequences of the de facto subscription obligation. In doing so, the author demonstrates that the de facto subscription obligation is a legal concept that can limit the freedom of action in setting the subscription price in individual cases and that can be captured using the established means of stock corporation law.
Dose-response Relationship of Therapeutic Oxygen: More Is Not Necessarily Better and May Be Inferior to No Supplemental Oxygen – Part 1: Proof and Nature
Authors: E. Peterson Russell , W. Allen Michael
Published: May 2024

In the early 1990s, the authors had consistently positive experience in the treatment of typical sports injuries and cosmetic surgical wounds with hyperbaric oxygen. These treatments generally consisted of oxygen at 2.0 atmospheres absolute (ATA) for 60 minutes. We were thus surprised to find that recognized experts in the field of hyperbaric medicine did not believe this modality to be effective for such normal wounds. Consequently, we asked Eric Kindwall, M.D., a professional acquaintance and published proponent of this prevalent view, what the bases for his beliefs on this matter were. Starting with references provided by Dr. Kindwall, we began an extensive literature review to try to reconcile our practical successes with the prevailing hyperbaric medical dogma. During our analysis, we found that the outcomes of oxygen therapy have a hormetic dose-response relationship. This finding explains the mistaken conclusions drawn concerning the treatment of uncompromised or normal wounds with hyperbaric oxygen as more oxygen will not provide benefits without limit. At some dose point, even below an inspired partial pressure (PiO2) of 3.0 atm, benefits will begin to decline and, in due course, more oxygen will produce negative impact in comparison with no hyperoxic supplementation.

Authors: Chandra Girish , Rani Ujala , Mahto Birkishore , Kumar Mahato Gopal
Published: May 2024

Azobenzene is a well-known dye that undergoes fast trans-cis photoisomerization and has been widely studied and used in the development of organic functional materials. Due to its selective isomeric distribution in the excited state, azobenzene has been used as a photoswitch in the storage of information on a molecular level, photo-controllable catalysis, solar light harvesting, photo-pharmacology, optical-to-mechanical energy conversion, molecular electronic, and photonic devices. Furthermore, the characteristic and distinguishable photoelectronic properties of trans and cis azobenzene have been recently used in the sensing properties of different ions and the recognition of molecules. Here, we are going to review the recent literature where different intermolecular forces show the supramolecular properties under the stimuli of photo-light.
Management of liver cirrhosis and its complications
Authors: Wu Zhenyu , Chen Lei , Chen Jing , Chen Chuanfang
Published: May 2024

Liver cirrhosis is a widespread global health concern with various potential causes, such as chronic viral hepatitis, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, alcohol consumption, and autoimmune diseases. The development of cirrhosis occurs over an extended period of chronic inflammation, leading to the substitution of healthy liver tissue with fibrotic tissue and regenerative nodules, ultimately leading to the onset of portal hypertension. Decompensated cirrhosis, which arises from a compensated stage, is characterized by the emergence of complications such as ascites, esophageal variceal bleeding, hepatorenal syndrome, hepatic encephalopathy, portal vein thrombosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma, which will result in prolonged hospitalization, impaired quality of life, and poor survival. In recent years, a concept known as “cirrhosis recompensation” has gained prominence in the field of liver cirrhosis. Cirrhosis recompensation, as defined by the Baveno VII consensus criteria, involves three core elements: addressing the underlying etiological factors, achieving remission from complications that are characteristic of the decompensated stage of cirrhosis, and achieving improvements in liver function. Consequently, the management of cirrhosis focuses on the elimination of underlying etiologies, surveillance for hepatocellular carcinoma and esophageal varices, assessment of suitability for liver transplantation, and treatment of complications.

Can dividend announcement predict abnormal returns? Tunisia evidence
Authors:   Faculty of science economics and management of Tunis, University of Tunis el Manar, Tunis, Tunisia, Bilel Hadfi
Published: May 2024

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to observe whether the announcement of dividend distribution can affect the abnormal return on the Tunisian stock exchange. Design/methodology/approach – The sample includes 24 non-financial listed stocks in Tunisia Stock Exchange during the years 2004-2013. Company decides to announce its dividend payout policy to signal the market that the firm is now processing future prospects, which will result in changing its stock prices. Findings – The findings yield qualitatively consistent with the previous research. After controlling for the effect of the Politic Crisis in Tunisia during 2010-2013, the result shows that the stock prices move upward significantly after dividend announcements. Abnormal return (AR) and cumulative abnormal return (CAR) from the market model are statistically significantly revealed. Moreover, most event windows show that the stock return becomes lower when the investor sentiment for dividend is higher. Research limitations/implications – The result is limited to the absence of an important number of firms listed in TSE from this period. Practical implications – Investors in Tunisia show their preference for dividend to self-control, satisfaction and increase their profit. “This could be the catering incentive of the firm to decide to pay dividends”. Originality/value – This document provides evidence of Baker and Wurgler's (2002) proposed a new dividend theory; dividend catering theory, Bulan et al (2004) proposed the timing of dividend initiation, Thanwarat Suwanna (2012) document the impact of dividend announcement on stock returns. Even though the results indicate that Tunisian market react to the announcement of dividend by managers. Moreover, the timing of dividend initiation is affected by the investors’ sentiment, measured by the dividend premium. Tunisian investors react positively to the announcement to distribute dividend from firms especially in abnormal economic situation explained by the Tunisian politic crisis.
Interrelatedness patterns of knowledge representation in extension concept mapping
Authors: Prasetya Didik Dwi , Widiyaningtyas Triyanna , Hirashima Tsukasa
Published: May 2024

Extension concept mapping enhances existing maps by integrating new knowledge, yielding an additional map. This study focuses on two potential extension designs: Extended Kit-Build and Extended Scratch-Build methods. While prior research favored Extended Kit-Build for cognitive knowledge comprehension and map scores, it lacked insights into concept map-relatedness patterns. The tight connections among knowledge representations demonstrate a remarkable level of expertise and the profoundness of an individual’s understanding. This study reveals interrelatedness patterns in extension concept mapping activities that connect previous and new knowledge. The dataset was obtained from a database that accommodates the results of concept mapping activities of 55 university students on two material topics. The study employed a two-group design, wherein the experimental cohort embraced the Extended Kit-Build approach, contrasting with the control cohort’s utilization of the Extended Scratch-Build approach. Extension Relationship scores were utilized to evaluate the knowledge interrelatedness patterns in extension concept mapping. The scoring method assessed both the number and quality of concept map proposition relationships. The experimental group established a statistically more significant quantity and qualitative strength of extension relationships than those within the control group. In the experimental group, a statistically noteworthy positive correlation emerged between the scores of extension relationships and students’ comprehension.

Published: May 2024

Background
Pregnancy in young girls negatively affects their health, their unborn and later-born child, and their social and psychological life. Effective use of Emergency Contraceptives (EC) significantly decreases abortion-related morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to assess knowledge and practices towards EC among female secondary school students in Geita Town Council in the Geita Region, Tanzania. 
Materials and methods
This was a descriptive cross-section study design that used an interviewer-administered questionnaire to gather information from 384 participants who were advanced secondary school-level female students in Geita. Multistage sampling was used to select study participants. Data was analysed using Stata software version 14.0. Frequency was estimated for categorical variables and mean, and standard deviation were used to summarize continuous variables. The Chi-Square test was used to establish the relationship between knowledge of EC and independent variables such as demographic characteristics and practices on EC.
Results
The majority, 336 (87.5%) of study participants had never heard of EC, and 208 (61.9%) had adequate knowledge of EC. Pills were the most reported form of EC 266 (79.2%) while 231 (68.7%) mentioned the correct dose of EC pill. More than half 198 (58.9%) agreed that using EC lowers the risk of getting pregnant and only 99 (29.5%) knew the correct timing of taking EC. The school was reported to be the most source of information 135 (40.2%). Students aged 15-19 years have a higher proportion, 138 (66.3%) of adequate knowledge than those aged 19 years and above. Students in form five classes were more knowledgeable (51.4%) about EC compared to form six classes (48.6%). Students with mothers who have a primary level of education have a higher proportion of 82 (39.4%) of adequate knowledge compared to other categories. Respondents whose fathers have ordinary college/University levels of education have a higher proportion of adequate knowledge than others.
Conclusion
Female secondary school students in Geita have adequate knowledge of EC, but very few have ever used it. More education and information on EC are needed for female students and the general population.

Introduction
Mesothelioma is a rare and rapidly advancing tumor that usually emerges on the mesothelial surfaces of the pleura or peritoneum. Despite being a well-recognized rare disease for decades, the only approved primary treatment protocol has been platinum-based treatments plus pemetrexed, whether or not bevacizumab is administered. Immunotherapy-based immune checkpoint inhibitors demonstrated a promising antitumor efficacy in a variety of cancer types. This is a systematic review of the current role of durvalumab in the management of this condition.
Methods
A systematic search was carried out through the databases and search engines. Regardless of study design, line of therapy, mode of therapy, or Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status, studies that primarily focused on the outcomes of treating this disease with durvalumab were eligible for inclusion. After the initial and full-text screenings, five studies were reviewed.
Results
The median age of the total 235 patients was 66.9 years. Males comprised 174 (74.04%) of the cases, with 61 (25.95%) cases being female. The Epithelioid mesothelioma subtype accounted for 194 (82.55%) of the patients. Durvalumab, in combination with pemetrexed cisplatin/carboplatin as therapy, was used in 109 (48.38%) cases. Durvalumab and tremelimumab were used in the treatment of 40 (17.02%) cases, of which 17 (7.23%) had retreatment with both immunotherapies. Among the patients who underwent durvalumab treatment, 69 (29.36% ) of the individuals previously received carboplatin/pemetrexed and cisplatin/pemetrexed.
Conclusion
Durvalumab can be utilized as an effective alternative for malignant pleural mesothelioma treatment, providing positive results and acceptable safety profiles.

Authors:   Yixin Publisher, Lai Zhengwei
Published: May 2024

The purpose of this study was to explore the effects of mixed emotional stimuli on associative memory. Emotional word pairs were chosen as the materials for the experiment, and the classical associative reconsideration paradigm was used to explore the effects of mixed emotional stimuli on associative memory under the condition of controlled arousal. Subjects were asked to learn different types of emotional word pairs in the learning phase, and associative recognition judgments were made on the word pairs in the recognition phase. It was found that the associative recognition scores (Pr) for mixed-emotion stimuli, positive-emotion stimuli, and negative-emotion stimuli were all significantly smaller than those for the neutral condition. The difference in associative recognition scores between mixed-emotion stimuli and positive-emotion stimuli was not significant. The association recognition scores for both mixed-emotion stimuli and positive-emotion stimuli were significantly higher than the association recognition scores for negative-emotion stimuli. The results suggest that mixed-emotion stimuli, positive-emotion stimuli, and negative-emotion stimuli impair associative memory compared to the neutral condition. Negative emotional stimuli impaired associative memory to the greatest extent, followed by mixed emotional stimuli and positive emotional stimuli.
