Authors: Abdul Latiff Latifah
Published: November 2022

The history of the development of Islam in Malaysia is closely related to the involvement of the Arabs who played a significant role in spreading Islam in the country. However, not many people know the story of their involvement in dakwah activities and religious administration in this country. Thus, this paper attempts to spotlight the involvement of Arab Sayyid descent propagating Islam in the country since their arrival until the middle of the 20th century AD. This qualitative study analyzed a review of the works of literature and primary sources from archival material. Findings showed that the Arab Sayyids involved in missionary spreading Islam and also in religious administration in several Malay states like Johor, Terengganu, Pahang and Kedah.
ABSTRAK
Sejarah perkembangan Islam di Malaysia berkait rapat dengan penglibatan orang Arab yang berperanan penting dalam menyebarkan Islam di Malaysia.

Islamic Sociological Perspective on Social Deviance of Khamr Drinking
Authors: Nik Abdul Majid Nik Suhaida
Published: November 2022

Theoretically, western sociologists discussed the topic involving khamr drinking in the context of social deviance related to addiction and the causes of drinking that harm others, such as accident driving, violence, and crime. The interpretation of deviance is up to the norm of certain groups in society’s culture because the discussion of the social system is limited to the interaction between humans and humans only. However, social deviance from the Islamic viewpoint is totally different because it is discussed based on the Islamic social system that involves the element of tauḥīd (interaction between humans with God, whose name is Allah). In Islam, drinking is considered deviant not by society but by Allah as the source of Muslims’ norms. Fundamentally, the studies on khamr, from the Islamic studies, are on fiqh discussion. This article offers a sociological view of khamr drinking by having the fiqh of khamr as a framework to guide the perspective. Therefore, this research will provide other researchers with another viewpoint of deviance on khamr drinking.

Published: November 2022

Since 2020, the widespread of a virus named Covid-19 or more commonly known as Corona, has been happening and has caused many disturbances in peoples’ lives. Of course, this is also applicable to people who are working. It affects many working people as they now have to face the Movement Control Order (MCO). The MCO restricts people from moving to places as it is trying to avoid gathering people that could potentially spread the virus even faster. Since we are researching Public Relations Practitioners, we are trying to see how this pandemic will affect how they work during the pandemic. We theorize that there was a significant change in the way Public Practitioners work before and during Covid-19. Therefore, we have interviewed many Public Relations practitioners to see if what we theorize was true. We pose multiple questions about how this pandemic has affected their work as public relations practitioners. We theorize that the MCO especially has left a significant impact in their career as the MCO would restrict things such as moving around from place to place to meet clients. Standard of Procedures was also established to combat the Covid-19 pandemic, and its content forbids a gathering of people. People need to commit to social distancing as well as there needs to be a set amount of people allowed in one confined place. Because of all of this, we theorize that Public Relations practitioners are now learning to conduct meetings with clients and other employees virtually. Whether through Skype, Google Meet, or Zoom, all of those factors may result in them having to reschedule their whole plan for the year.

The results reveals the location of the drama chosen by the directors in these three dramas have the characteristics of da'wah that show the beauty of Islam, the power of Allah S.W.T and bring the audience closer to Allah S.W.T. Overall the location can be made as an element of da'wah in Islamic drama whether as unseeded or implied through the scenes portrayed in the location.
Rise Of East Asian Media Connection: Japanese And Korean Cultural Globalisation Through Media
Authors: Mohamad Noor Nurdayana
Published: November 2022

Media and cultural globalisation have progressed to a new level of development and penetration in the age of ubiquitous media technologies and applications. While powerful missionaries of global media culture have penetrated and integrated various media markets, the development of East Asian media cultural production and inter-Asian media production and consumption has become apparent. These developments, on the other hand, enable the disguising of anti-ethnocentric patterns of cultural production, circulation, and connection as globalisation. This eventually invites dialogic connections among people from different regions. In the context of the uneven globalisation process, this article critically reviews the rise of East Asian media culture production and how inter-Asian connectivity plays its role in limiting symmetrical cultural exchange within Asia. The debate spans two of East Asia's most powerful media imperialists: Japan and Korea, as well as their transnational media and culture industries and how they started. The methodology used is literature review and observation, which leads to findings based on secondary data. Arguments on the impact of their advancement also discuss the effects of the media and cultural swapping on their Southeast Asian counterparts based on past research. In future studies, researchers must investigate the unevenness and inequality in the inter-Asian mass culture network, particularly their impact on Southeast Asian countries, where upcoming research can collaborate transnationally with various social actors to advance inter-Asian media culture connections in a more democratic and dialogic manner.
Perluasan Tafsiran Asnaf Fakir Dan Miskin Dalam Konteks Pandemik Di Malaysia
Authors: Lokman Nur Wahida
Published: November 2022

Penularan wabak Covid-19 telah memperlihatkan kecekapan institusi zakat menguruskan wang dana zakat dengan pantas dan berkebajikan. Pelbagai jenis golongan seperti golongan T20 yang terjejas pendapatan oleh kerana wabak Covid-19 juga turut dibantu oleh pihak institusi zakat. Situasi ini menunjukkan skop agihan zakat kepada asnaf telah diperluaskan  bagi menjamin kebajikan umat Islam terjaga. Namun begitu, timbul persoalan dari sudut kedudukan golongan baharu yang boleh dikategorikan sebagai golongan asnaf dalam konteks pandemik. Justeru itu, kajian ini dijalankan adalah untuk menganalisis tafsiran asnaf fakir dan miskin menurut ulama 4 Mazhab, tafsiran kontemporari dan perluasan tafsirannya dalam konteks pandemik. Kajian ini menggunakan kaedah dokumentasi, pemerhatian dan analisis dalam mencapai objektif kajian. Hasil kajian mendapati bahawa  pentafsiran asnaf fakir dan miskin dalam konteks pandemik boleh diperluaskan seperti mereka yang kehilangan punca pendapatan, hilang pekerjaan dan pendapatan bulanan tidak mencukupi untuk menampung keperluan. Diharapkan kajian ini dapat menjadi panduan dan rujukan kepada institusi zakat mahupun organisasi tertentu dalam menguruskan hal ehwal berkaitan zakat. Kajian lanjutan terhadap perluasan tafsiran asnaf gharimin dalam konteks pandemik perlu dilakukan kerana ia juga melibatkan  hutang masyarakat yang terjejas semasa pandemik.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), a multisystemic disorder caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), has been associated with both venous and arterial thromboses. The hypercoagulable state of the disease poses a challenge to the patient’s management. We herein report a case of acute ischaemic stroke in a COVID-19 patient who had been treated with three days of Baricitinib, an immunotherapy that can potentially augment the thrombotic risks. The case highlights the dilemma faced when initiating immunotherapy in a COVID-19 patient and emphasises the importance of evaluating the patient’s thrombotic risks, balanced against the benefit of immunotherapy, to facilitate the selection of ideal candidates for the immunotherapy.

Published: November 2022

Oesophageal atresia (OA) and Tracheoesophageal fistulas (TOF) are congenital anomalies commonly present in between 1 and 4 per 10 000 births, including stillbirths and termination of pregnancies. Currently, patients with these anomalies are are managed surgically, with common complications including oesophageal formation, anastomotic leakage and recurrence of TOF. This case report highlights the possibility of right phrenic nerve injury as a complication of OA and TOF repair. We report a baby boy born at term with worsening respiratory distress at day 15 of life, two weeks after undergoing an operation to repair OA and TOF. Since the surgery on day 2 of life, he could not be weaned off oxygen support successfully and had two episodes of worsening respiratory distress that was treated as pneumonia. Serial Chest X-Rays (CXR) showed a persistent elevation of the right hemidiaphragm. Ultrasound (USG) thorax supported the findings of right diaphragmatic paralysis by revealing minimal right diaphragm excursion with the paradoxical movement of the right diaphragm. He was initially managed non-operatively with non-invasive ventilation (NIV)/continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) while monitoring for spontaneous recovery of the right diaphragm, which unfortunately did not occur. He was on NIV/CPAP for a total of 25 days and was tachypnoeic with mild subcostal recessions (SCR) and reduced breath sounds on the right throughout. Six weeks after the initial OA/TOF repair surgery, he was posted for Right Diaphragmatic Plication. Afterwards, he recovered well and was weaned off oxygen support within the next seven days and subsequently discharged.

Authors: Ismail Nurazah , Mohd Daud Tuti Iryani
Published: November 2022

We reported a case of severe symptomatic hyponatremia with a serum sodium level of 113 mmol/l after 2 weeks commencement of 2 types atypical antipsychotics; clozapine and amisulpiride with indapamide, a thiazide-like diuretic antihypertensive medication. Discontinuation of indapamide despite of continuation of his antipsychotics showed improvement in his serum sodium level. The aim of our case-report is to emphasize the life-threatening complication associated with the combination of agents that may cause hyponatremia. Both agents are known to cause electrolytes imbalance. Hence, close monitoring of the serum sodium is important during the treatment course.

Introducción: la sangre es un fluido corporal con una función importantísima dentro de varios procesos biológicos y metabólicos. Los antígenos de tipo A y B determinados por herencia genética son los que se encuentran en la parte externa de los eritrocitos, varían en las diferentes poblaciones, por lo que son sujetos de importantes estudios diversas ramas de la medicina, en el área gineco-obstetricia, es importante identificar de forma temprana o preventiva una incompatibilidad sanguínea para favorecer la disminución de los índices de morbilidad y mortalidad neonatal, ya que puede derivar en una enfermedad hemolítica del recién nacido u otras complicaciones con mayor o menor grado. Objetivo: Recopilar la información más importante y actualizada sobre la incompatibilidad ABO. Metodología: Revisión sistemática documentos e investigaciones en inglés y español obtenidas de plataformas científicas como Elsevier, ScIELO, PubMed y de repositorios universitarios nacionales e internacionales desde el 2017, con descriptores como Sistema ABO, incompatibilidad sanguínea, materno-fetal, complicaciones, entre otras.  Resultados: De un total de 112 documentos inicialmente, 62 fueron utilizados para la lectura de sus resúmenes, excluyéndose los demás por falta de relevancia con el tema de investigación o duplicación de la información. Conclusiones: La incompatibilidad sanguínea ABO es una complicación que genera reacción antígeno- anticuerpo y que puede llegar a ser mortal. Por ello, todas las ramas médicas; o por lo menos la gran mayoría, considera inicialmente realizar pruebas de tipificación sanguínea para aplicar los tratamientos correspondientes o determinar la causa etiológica de una patología asociada, sabiendo que existen procesos naturales en ginecología en los que la incompatibilidad ABO puede generar complicaciones importantes en el neonato como la enfermedad hemolítica del recién nacido, anemias o hiperbilirrubinemia grave, mismos que aumentan los índices de morbimortalidad.

Aim: The aim of the study was to determine if the tissue Doppler imaging (TDI)-derived myocardial acceleration during isovolumic contraction (IVA) of tricuspid lateral annulus could be used in early detection of RV systolic dysfunction in patients with mitral stenosis (MS), before the clinical signs of systemic venous congestion occur and to compare between IVA and conventional echocardiographic parameters in detecting early RV systolic dysfunction in patients with MS .

Methods: Ninety-six patients with severe rheumatic MS without relevant regurgitation were enrolled in the study. Conventional echocardiographic parameters (mitral valve area, transmitral diastolic gradients, pulmonary artery pressure, RV fractional area change, pulmonary flow acceleration time, tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion) and TDI-derived systolic velocities of tricuspid annulus (isovolumic myocardial acceleration: IVA, peak myocardial velocity during isovolumic contraction: IVV, peak systolic velocity during ejection period: Sa and RV MPI) were recorded from all patients.

Results: TDI-derived IVA, IVV, Sa were significantly decreased in patients with MS and RV MPI is increased in patients with MS. IVA was the only parameter which had a significant negative correlation with the traditional echocardiographic parameters and RV Tei index in patients with MS.

Conclusion: TDI-derived right ventricular IVA may be used as an adjunctive, reliable, noninvasive parameter for the early detection of right ventricular systolic dysfunction in patients with MS but without signs of systemic venous congestion. RV IVA negatively correlate with RV MPI, positively correlate with IVV and Sa. RV IVA shows positive correlation with RVFAC and negative correlation with PAP, LA size. IVA shows no correlation with TAPSE.

Published: November 2022

Background and Objectives: Myocardial injury after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) occurs frequently and it is associated with an adverse clinical outcome. Mechanical factors have been implicated in this complication and the role of inflammation has not yet been clearly determined. We evaluated the effect of an inflammatory response during PCI on periprocedural myocardial injury.

Subjects and Methods: This prospective observational study was conducted in the Department of Cardiology, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU), Dhaka, Bangladesh over a period between July’2012 to June’2013. A total of 200 patients studied who underwent elective coronary stenting. For the exclusion of mechanical injury to the myocardium, we excluded those patients who developed complications during PCI. The inflammatory response to PCI was calculated as the difference between the peak postprocedural hs-CRP level and the preprocedural hs-CRP level . We divided the patients according to the median value of hs- CRP: Group I <3 mg/L and Group II >3 mg/L.

Results: Postprocedural TnI elevation was were observed in 72 (36%) patients. The baseline clinical and angiographic characteristics were not difference between the two groups. The incidence of any TnI elevations was higher in the Group II than that in Group I (19.8% vs 42.6%, respectively, p<0.001). The incidences of TnI levels over 3 times the upper normal limit and 5 times the upper normal limit were also higher in Group II than in Group I (11.2% vs 21.7%, respectively, p=0.031, for a TnI level 3 times the upper normal limit, and 6.0% vs 13.9%, respectively, for a TnI level 5 times the upper normal limit. Multivariate analysis revealed that postprocedural hs- CRP elevation in high risk group were the significant independent predictors of postprocedural TnI elevation.

Conclusion: Elevated hs-CRP levels were associated with a higher risk of postprocedural troponin elevation in patients undergoing uncomplicated PCI. These results emphasized the role of inflammation in the pathogenesis of periprocedural myocardial injury. Measuring of hs-CRP either preprocedural or postprocedural in high risk patients is useful for predicting early cardiovascular events.

Two Cases of Intra-Operative Cardiac Arrhythmia During Balloon Eustachian Tuboplasty: The Mechanism and Treatment
Authors: Lee Junuk , Lim Ji Hyung , Han Jae Sang , Park Shi Nae
Published: November 2022

Balloon eustachian tuboplasty (BET), a surgical technique to expand the cartilaginous portion of the eustachian tube by ballooning via opening at the nasopharynx, has been introduced as a useful surgical modality for eustachian tube dysfunction patients. Although BET is known as a relatively safe procedure, we recently have experienced two cases of cardiac complications during balloon inflation. In one case, an asystole occurred for 13 seconds during this procedure; the heart rate was recovered after balloon deflation with an intravenous injection of glycopyrrolate and atropine. In the other case, bradycardia occurred and continued during BET. Heart rate was recovered immediately after deflation of balloon without drug injection. As far as we know, this is the first report of cardiac complications during BET, probably related with trigemino-cardiac reflex. In both cases, no other sequelae remained after the surgery. We report these two cases of cardiac complications that occurred during BET along with a review of literature.
Autologous Costal Cartilage Augmentation Technique for Treatment of Empty Nose Syndrome
Authors: Lee Sang Jae , Choi Yoon Seok , Bae Chang Hoon , Song Si-Youn , Kim Yong-Dae , Na Hyung Gyun
Published: November 2022

Empty nose syndrome is a rare complication caused by excessive removal of normal tissues after nose surgery. The main symptoms of empty nose syndrome are paradoxical nasal obstruction, dryness, crust and dyspnea. Medical treatments such as irrigation, humidification, and ointment are not very effective, so surgical treatments to reconstruct the normal nasal cavity using implant materials are often considered. If the implant is not properly inserted, the symptoms persist and the implant must be removed again, resulting in the only donor site complications. Therefore, it is essential to treat the implant well and insert it precisely. Here we describe a surgical procedure to manage implant materials using autologous costal cartilage in the form of block, diced, and crushed cartilage for augmentation technique.
Association Between Australasian New Car Assessment Program Pedestrian Ratings and Injury Severity in Real-Life Crashes in Different Speed Limit Areas
Authors: Keall Michael , Watson Linda , Rampollard Casey , Newstead Stuart
Published: November 2022

Some New Car Assessment Programs (NCAPs) include pedestrian safety ratings based on crash tests. We compared 2,682 real-world Australasian pedestrian injury outcomes with pedestrian safety ratings provided by the Australasian NCAP within the speed limit areas where the collisions occurred. We found that the risk of a pedestrian fatal or severe (involving hospital treatment) injury was considerably reduced for the safest rated vehicles studied, but only in speed limit areas of 40km/h or less. From the perspective of promoting a safer system for pedestrians, these results imply that both lowered speed limits and a safer vehicle fleet are required.

Cycling to school is uncommon among adolescents in most developed countries. Development of cycling skills through cycle skills training (CST) can reduce cycling-related safety concerns. This study examined long-term effects of CST retrospectively by comparing adolescents’ perceptions of cycling to school and their confidence to cycle to school among those who participated in CST in primary and/or intermediate school with non-participants. Adolescents (n=1,260; 51% female; 12 schools) from Dunedin (New Zealand) completed an online survey at school. Adolescents self-reported transport modes to school, perceptions of cycling to school and CST, and previous participation in and perceived benefits of school-based CST programmes. Only 1-2% adolescents usually cycled to school. Overall, 42% agreed CST would make them safer in traffic (no significant difference between CST participants (n=512) and non-participants (n=748)). Among CST participants, 32% reported that CST increased their confidence to cycle to school and those adolescents had more favourable attitudes towards CST than participants who reported no effects. In a multivariable analysis, adolescents’ perceptions that CST increased their cycling confidence were positively associated with self-efficacy for cycling to school (odds ratio (OR) (95% confidence interval (CI)): 1.33 (1.07, 1.67)), perceived school support (1.51 (1.01, 2.25)), parental cycling-related safety concerns (1.84 (1.25, 2.69)) and being Māori (6.47 (2.36, 17.7)) or other ethnic origins (2.26 (1.00, 5.10); reference: New Zealand Europeans). Therefore, CST could be a useful strategy to support adolescents’ cycling to school, ideally (as suggested in the literature) in combination with appropriate infrastructure changes and speed management measures.
The IBD Management Puzzle: Do We Have All the Pieces?
Authors: Moore Laura
Published: November 2022

The management of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) has entered an exciting era, with the optimisation of existing therapies, new strategies being explored that have the potential to further improve patient outcomes, and a growing recognition of the value of a personalised approach to treatment. This symposium explored optimal approaches to using biologic therapy, and the use of therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) and biomarkers in treatment management.

IBD shows a progressive immunopathogenesis, and a ‘window of opportunity’ exists whereby early intervention may alter the disease course. There is a convincing body of evidence supporting early intervention with anti-TNF-α therapies to improve patient outcomes. Cost is the major barrier to initiating and continuing treatment with biologic therapy. Biosimilars have the potential to reduce costs and increase patient access to biologic therapies, enabling more patients to receive biologic treatment earlier. The use of TDM in the treatment of IBD is increasing and offers benefits over standardised approaches to dosing, and it is likely that emerging dose optimisation tools will enable a personalised approach to treatment in the future.

Many patients experience loss of response to anti-TNF-α therapy. Biomarkers currently used to monitor treatment response include C reactive protein (CRP), faecal calprotectin, and anti-drug antibodies (ADA). Although biomarker identification is still at an early stage for IBD, several genetic, serological, and microbiome markers have also shown promise in predicting response to anti-TNF-α therapy, while other biomarkers are also under investigation for use in diagnosis, predicting response to therapy, and treatment monitoring.

Electrically conducting films prepared from graphite and lignin in pure water
Authors: Suzuki Asami , Otsuka Yuichiro , Shikinaka Kazuhiro
Published: November 2022

In this study, we present electrically conducting self-standing graphite films consisting of lignin derivatives extracted by simultaneous enzymatic saccharification and comminution (SESC). Sonication of graphite powder in the presence of SESC lignin and pure water allows dispersion of the SESC-lignin-attached graphite without addition of other chemicals. The SESC-lignin-attached graphite having a diameter of several micrometers can be used as a surface electroconductive coating and molded into self-standing films by drying. The SESC-lignin-attached graphite film exhibits higher conductivity (∼2,075 S/cm) than graphite-based composites consisting of ordinary lignin derivatives. Manufacturing self-standing films of micrometer-sized graphite using SESC lignin enables high electrical conductivity of the SESC-lignin-attached graphite film. The size of the SESC-lignin-attached graphite is proportional to the conductivity of the film. The SESC-lignin-attached graphite also acts as an antiplasticizer and a conductive filler for polymer films, i.e., conductive films consisting of poly(ethylene glycol) or Li+ montmorillonite can be obtained through a water-based process.

Future advances in therapeutics demand the development of dynamic and intelligent living materials. The past static monofunctional materials shall be unable to meet the requirements of future medical development. Also, the demand for precision medicine has increased with the progressively developing human society. Therefore, engineered living materials (ELMs) are vitally important for biotherapeutic applications. These ELMs can be cells, microbes, biofilms, and spores, representing a new platform for treating intractable diseases. Synthetic biology plays a crucial role in the engineering of these living entities. Hence, in this review, the role of synthetic biology in designing and creating genetically engineered novel living materials, particularly bacteria, has been briefly summarized for diagnostic and targeted delivery. The main focus is to provide knowledge about the recent advances in engineered bacterial-based therapies, especially in the treatment of cancer, inflammatory bowel diseases, and infection. Microorganisms, particularly probiotics, have been engineered for synthetic living therapies. Furthermore, these programmable bacteria are designed to sense input signals and respond to disease-changing environments with multipronged therapeutic outputs. These ELMs will open a new path for the synthesis of regenerative medicines as they release therapeutics that provide in situ drug delivery with lower systemic effects. In last, the challenges being faced in this field and the future directions requiring breakthroughs have been discussed. Conclusively, the intent is to present the recent advances in research and biomedical applications of engineered bacteria-based therapies during the last 5 years, as a novel treatment for uncontrollable diseases.
New trends in assessing the prestress loss in post-tensioned concrete bridges

Published: November 2022

The evaluation of the current prestress force represents often a challenging issue during the assessment of existing post-tensioned concrete (PTC) members. In this contribution, two case studies are presented to show the efficiency of some experimental methods applied both to laboratory beams and to an in-service PTC bridge. First, the outcomes of an experimental campaign carried out on three PTC beams with a straight post-tensioned, non-grouted tendon are discussed. For each beam, three-point bending tests (3PBTs) were carried out applying increasing load steps until failure and varying the prestress force; at each load step, non-destructive tests (NDTs) were performed, namely, dynamic free vibration and ultrasonic tests. The variation of non-destructive parameters was evaluated as a function of the prestress force and of the structural damage. The second case study deals with a 50-year-old PTC bridge with grouted ducts. In this case, other than evaluating the existing geometry, structural details, and material properties, the following NDTs were performed: endoscopies, tests based on stress release, i.e., both saw-cut and wire-cut tests, and lastly, X-ray diffractometries (XRDs). The results indicate the high potential of this latter technique, which resulted more reliable and less invasive than the previous ones.
A requirement for Krüppel Like Factor‐4 in the maintenance of endothelial cell quiescence

Published: November 2022

Rationale and Goal: Endothelial cells (ECs) are quiescent and critical for maintaining homeostatic functions of the mature vascular system, while disruption of quiescence is at the heart of endothelial to mesenchymal transition (EndMT) and tumor angiogenesis. Here, we addressed the hypothesis that KLF4 maintains the EC quiescence.

Methods and Results: In ECs, KLF4 bound to KLF2, and the KLF4-transctivation domain (TAD) interacted directly with KLF2. KLF4-depletion increased KLF2 expression, accompanied by phosphorylation of SMAD3, increased expression of alpha-smooth muscle actin (αSMA), VCAM-1, TGF-β1, and ACE2, but decreased VE-cadherin expression. In the absence of Klf4, Klf2 bound to the Klf2-promoter/enhancer region and autoregulated its own expression. Loss of EC-Klf4 in RosamT/mG::Klf4fl/fl::Cdh5CreERT2 engineered mice, increased Klf2 levels and these cells underwent EndMT. Importantly, these mice harboring EndMT was also accompanied by lung inflammation, disruption of lung alveolar architecture, and pulmonary fibrosis.

Conclusion: In quiescent ECs, KLF2 and KLF4 partnered to regulate a combinatorial mechanism. The loss of KLF4 disrupted this combinatorial mechanism, thereby upregulating KLF2 as an adaptive response. However, increased KLF2 expression overdrives for the loss of KLF4, giving rise to an EndMT phenotype.
