Published: February 2024

The rapid development of the Internet has injected new thinking into modern physical education teaching, making the informatization construction of physical education teaching a pivotal way to break the traditional teaching limitations and give full play to the function of physical education. Based on the modern teaching theory, this study analyzes the informationized teaching mode of physical education in colleges and universities and the availability of teaching resources. Adopting principal component analysis method, combining KNN-ADPC clustering algorithm and introducing K nearest neighbor idea, this paper aims to explore the key factors affecting the effect of sports informatization teaching in colleges and universities. The sports informatization teaching in specific colleges and universities is selected as a research case, and the fuzzy qualitative comparative analysis method is used to conduct an in-depth study. The study results show that students’ sports cognition and teachers’ professionalism are essential requisites affecting the effectiveness of sports informatization teaching, with the consistency of the two being close to 0.9. The effectiveness of sports informatization teaching is mainly affected by the third configuration, with a coverage rate as high as 83.4%, in which teachers’ professionalism is proved to be the most critical influencing factor. The conclusion of the study points out that to effectively enhance the development of physical education informatization teaching, the professional training of teachers and the cognitive ability of students in sports should be strengthened, as well as to improve the physical education teaching environment and to create a positive physical education cultural atmosphere.
Analysis and Application of Civic Context Construction for University English Courses Combined with Cluster Analysis
Authors: Jiang Yue
Published: February 2024

This paper applies the cluster analysis method to classify different Civics contexts in university English courses, and improves the accuracy of Civics context text clustering by extracting the word stems of English Civics context texts. The text similarity calculation is used to remove feature words from the preprocessed text, to converge into a collection of feature words. The texts containing English Civic and Political Context are clustered and analyzed, and the clustering effect of Civic and Political Context texts is judged according to the clustering evaluation. The status quo of Civic and Political integration into English curriculum is explored from different dimensions, and corresponding optimization strategies are proposed with the converged data. The results show that the Civic-Political contexts of English courses are mainly divided into three categories, and based on the clustering of the Civic-Political contexts of university English courses, the contexts of “living, learning and doing” are relatively independent. The contexts “history, culture and society” and “science and technology” are closer. In integrating Civics and Politics into English teaching, the mean value of the dimension of teaching method is 4.212, which is in a better integration situation.

Authors: Yang Yingchun , Zhao Xu , Han Tianxi , Li Zhe , Pan Fei
Published: February 2024

Aiming at the challenge of storing massive power grid data, this paper proposes an improved swing gate trend algorithm to effectively compress 5G data. The algorithm first performs least squares smoothing on the original data to reduce noise interference on the SDT algorithm, which enables the data compression process to more accurately determine the data trend. Further, the shortcomings of the original SDT algorithm are improved, including adaptive frequency conversion data processing, dynamic threshold adjustment, and anomaly recording strategy, to enhance the practicality and efficiency of the algorithm. Through simulation analysis and example data validation, the study shows that the data compression ratio can be stabilized at about 23.98 when the data compression time reaches 1.6 minutes, and the actual error is very close to the desired error. The time overhead of the improved SDT algorithm is only 0.225 seconds, indicating that the algorithm is efficient and reliable. Combined with different data compression storage strategies, the algorithm can further reduce the data compression time. This study provides an adequate data compression method for electric code violation identification, which offers a practical solution for processing and storing large-scale grid data.

Published: February 2024

Introduction

Haemosporidian parasites are prevalent worldwide and can cause economic losses in poultry production. These parasites are arousing interest in Thailand and are found in many avian species. There is insufficient information on the genetic diversity of these alveolates from the largest families – Plasmodidae, Haemoprotidae and Leucocytozoidae – specifically parasitising ducks, turkeys, and geese.

Material and Methods

Blood samples from 116 backyard poultry (60 ducks, 36 turkeys and 20 geese) in northeastern Thailand were investigated for Plasmodium spp., Haemoproteus spp. and Leucocytozoon spp. infections using microscopic examination and molecular approaches.

Results

A total of 37/116 birds (31.9%) had confirmed Plasmodium infections. The prevalence was 69.4% (25/36) in turkeys, 18.3% (11/60) in ducks, and 5.0% (1/20) in geese. Of these 37 positives, 86.5% were Plasmodium sp., 10.8% were P. gallinaceum and 2.7% were P. juxtanucleare. Sequence analysis based on the cytochrome b gene identified seven lineages, of which two were new lineages in backyard poultry.

Conclusion

This is the first report on the prevalence of haemosporidian parasites in backyard poultry in northeastern Thailand. The results provide important data for better understanding the molecular epidemiology of haemosporidian parasites infection in poultry in this region, which will be helpful in controlling these blood parasites.
The difference in leaves production, protein and calcium of Moringa oleifera under modification planting media, application of PGR and nitrogen
Authors: SULISTIANI RINI , YUSUF MUKHTAR , SARAGIH SYAIFUL AMRI
Published: February 2024

Moringa has many ingredients of nutrients that are beneficial for food sources and nutrients that have not been widely cultivated. The nutritional content, benefits and high demand for Moringa abroad will open large opportunities for exporting Moringa flour. Foods full of nutrition will support the maintenance of good public health. For this reason, it is necessary to study and research cultivation techniques that produce high Moringa leaves and can be available sustainably. Production of Moringa leaves as a source of secondary metabolites can be increased by modifying the planting media and applying Plant Growth Regulator (PGR) and Nitrogen. The study used Split Split Plot Design with the main plot immersion by PGR, consisting of 3 types, namely: G1 (Fresh water), G2 (Coconut water), and G3 (GA3). The subplot was the treatment of planting media with two types: M₁ (soil: sand: manure = 1:1:2); M₂ (soil: sand: manure = 1:2:1). The sub subplots were N (urea) fertilizer, with four levels: N0 (0 g/plant); N1 (5 g/plant); N₂ (10 g/plant); and N₃ (15 g/plant). Each treatment combination goes over three times. The agronomic parameters observed were plant height, the number of leaves, fresh crop weight, and root volume, and the biochemical parameters observed were chlorophyll, protein, and calcium levels. The composition of the planting media caused significant differences in plant height at 4, 6, and 10 weeks after planting (WAP), the number of leaves at 4 WAP, and root length at 10 WAP. Growth Regulators significantly affected plant height at 4, 6, and 10 WAP, the number of leaves at 4 WAP, and root length at harvest. Nitrogen fertilization caused significant differences in plant height at 4, 6, and 10 WAP, volume, and root length at harvest (10 WAP). The combination of Planting media, PGR, and Nitrogen treatments caused significant differences in plant height at 4, 6, and 10 WAP and the number of leaves at 6 WAP. Laboratory analysis in this study showed high calcium and protein in Moringa leaves.

Bacterial laryngotracheobronchitis as one cause of airway obstruction in older children
Authors: Badełek-Izdebska Małgorzata , Raczkowska-Łabuda Karolina , Zawadzka-Głos Lidia
Published: February 2024

Laryngitis, tracheitis and bronchitis is a common, usually self-limiting viral infection. Bacterial laryngitis, tracheitis and bronchitis is caused by secondary bacterial infection of a viral laryngeal infection leading to a mucopurulent exudate that can cause acute upper airway obstruction and eventually lead to a life-threatening condition. Bacterial tracheitis should be considered in the differential diagnosis of any child with acute upper airway obstruction. This diagnosis should also be considered in any child with viral croup that does not respond to conventional treatment. The correct way to definitively diagnose bacterial tracheitis is by direct visualisation of the trachea by bronchoscopy, but this may not be necessary in all cases. Management includes close observation and monitoring, early initiation of broad-spectrum antibiotics, pain management, and clearing the airways of lingering secretions. The decision to secure an airway by intubation or tracheotomy should be made on an individual basis depending on the severity of symptoms and the patient’s condition. If diagnosed early and treated properly, complete recovery can be expected. We present two patients diagnosed with laryngotracheobronchitis, in whom a correct diagnosis allowed successful recovery.
Style and language of television news on the Iraqi issue on TRT and RT
Authors: Vazir Safaa Radhi
Published: February 2024

Interest in mass media discourse has increased significantly in recent decades, which is confirmed by numerous studies that are aimed at studying the features of the language and style used on news channels, the manifestation of the manipulative function, the rhetoric of the sender of the communication message and the reaction of recipients. TRT and RT are major international news channels. Having a similar mission (24-hour daily updates of news from politics, business, finance, sports, science, culture...), these TV channels actively use modern digital technologies in their activities, which allows them to take leading positions in the rankings in their niche. Already at the end of the twentieth century, there was a regular change in the forms of speech styles of communication due to the development of communication and other technologies. The information revolution and the subsequent technological development gave a new impetus to the journalistic profession, bringing it to a completely new level of the digital space. Research methods used in the article: systematization, generalization, critical analysis, discourse analysis, stylistic analysis, pragmatic analysis. Television which occupies an important place among the media due to its wide coverage acted as the subject of our consideration. The authors identified a common feature among many researchers of the language and style of television news - anxiety about their ambiguous influence on the broad masses of the population, as J. Bloomer talks about. This concern stems from concerns about the power of the media to influence modern democratic societies, the protection of various freedoms, and the dangers of propaganda tools and information manipulation.
Is functional mobility associated with quality of sitting in cerebral palsy? A cross-sectional study
Authors: Doctor Kaiorisa , Karnad Shreekanth D. , Krishnan Shyam , Narayan Amitesh , Nayak Akshatha
Published: February 2024

Objectives:

A group of neuromuscular system anomalies associated with non-progressive issues in the developing fetal or newborn brain are known as cerebral palsy (CP). These abnormalities are typified by poor posture and motor development, which limits the execution of functional activities. Consequently, to achieve the same goals as peers who are typically developing, children with CP employ a variety of compensatory postures and techniques. Given that both sitting and mobility are essential for functioning, assessing each skill alone and in relation to the other is necessary. This study aims to determine if a child’s functional mobility affects their sitting ability.

Materials and Methods:

Twenty CP (Gross Motor Function Classification System [GMFCS] levels I and II) children, aged 6–12, were enrolled in the research. The level of sitting scale (LSS) and the modified timed up and go (mTUG) test were utilized to evaluate sitting and functional mobility, respectively.

Results:

The quality of sitting was shown to have a substantial effect on functional mobility, as a significant difference in mTUG durations was established between LSS levels (P < 0.001) and persisted when analyzed within the same GMFCS level (P = 0.007).

Conclusion:

The importance of trunk control in functional mobility can be inferred from the link between sitting quality and mobility. To improve children with CP’s functional mobility, this evidence may be utilized to design a well-informed and specific intervention program incorporating trunk control.
Comprehensive Polyphenolic Profiling of Nine Distinct Plants and Edible Mushrooms by Targeted and Untargeted LC-(HR)MS(/MS)
Authors: Oesterle Ian , Pretzler Matthias , Rompel Annette , Warth Benedikt
Published: February 2024

Polyphenols are a broad molecular family whose presence in an organism is mostly only partially known. They are secondary metabolites exhibiting antioxidant properties and are involved in a wide range of biological actions. Moreover, polyphenol oxidases, metalloenzymes present in various plants and fungi, play a role in metabolic pathways by catalyzing the hydroxylation and oxidation of polyphenols. Functional studies on these enzymes are greatly hampered by the lack of information on the polyphenols present in a specific organism, so the physiological substrate is unknown for most polyphenol oxidases. Therefore, seven commercially available fungal and two plant species were examined in detail for the presence of polyphenols using an LC-HRMS-based suspect screening workflow. A total of 401 features were annotated, composed of 221 flavonoids and 180 non-flavonoids. As 64% of the flavonoids were conjugated with a glycone, (semi-)quantification was applied when a reference standard of the aglycone was available. Isomers of hesperetin-O-glucoside were ubiquitous in all investigated samples. The samples were then additionally investigated by a quantitative, targeted LC-MS/MS assay that covers 90 polyphenols from 13 distinct polyphenol classes. The targeted assay showed phenolic acids as prevalent analytes. Overall, this pilot study provides new insights into the complex polyphenol profiles of nine mushroom and plant species.

Published: February 2024

A convergent route towards nitrogen-bridged BODIPY oligomers has been developed. The synthetic key step is a Buchwald-Hartwig cross-coupling reaction of an alpha-amino-BODIPY and the respective halide. Not only does the selective synthesis provide control of the oligomer size, but the facile preparative procedure also enables easy access to this type of dyes. Furthermore, functionalized examples were accessible via brominated derivatives.
Directed Evolution of Protoglobin Optimizes the Enzyme Electric Field
Authors: Chaturvedi Shobhit S. , Vargas Santiago , Ajmera Pujan , Alexandrova Anastassia N.
Published: February 2024

To unravel why computational design fails in creating viable enzymes, while directed evolution (DE) succeeds, our research delves into the laboratory evolution of Protoglobin. DE has adapted this protein to efficiently catalyze carbene transfer reactions. We show that the previously proposed enhanced substrate access and binding alone cannot account for increased yields during DE. The 3D electric field in the entire active site is tracked through protein dynamics, clustered using the affinity propagation algorithm, and subjected to principal component analysis. This analysis reveals notable changes in the electric field with DE, where distinct field topologies influence transition state energetics and mechanism. A chemically meaningful field component emerges and takes the lead during DE and facilitates crossing the barrier to carbene transfer. Our findings underscore intrinsic electric field dynamic's influence on enzyme function, the ability of the field to switch mechanisms within the same protein, and the crucial role of the field in enzyme design.
Enantioselective Paternò–Büchi Reactions: Strategic Application of a Triplet Rebound Mechanism for Asymmetric Photocatalysis
Authors: Kidd Jesse , Fiala Tahoe , Swords Wesley , Park Yerin , Meyer Kent , Sanders Kyana , Guzei Ilia , Wright John , Yoon Tehshik
Published: February 2024

The Paternò–Büchi reaction is the [2+2] photocycloaddition of a carbonyl with an alkene to afford oxetane products. Enantioselective catalysis of this classical photoreaction, however, has proven to be a long-standing challenge. Many of the best-developed strategies for asymmetric photochemistry are not suitable to address this problem because the interaction of carbonyls with Brønsted or Lewis acidic catalysts can alter the electronic structure of their excited state and divert their reactivity towards alternate photoproducts. We show herein that an alternative triplet rebound strategy enables the stereocontrolled reaction of an excited-state carbonyl compound in its native, unbound state. These studies have resulted in the development of the first highly enantioselective catalytic Paternò–Büchi reaction, catalyzed by a novel hydrogen-bonding chiral Ir photocatalyst.
Molecular origin of distinct hydration dynamics in double helical DNA and RNA sequences
Authors: Frezza Elisa , Laage Damien , Duboué-Dijon Elise
Published: February 2024

Water molecules are essential to determine the structure of nucleic acids and mediate their interactions with other biomolecules. Here, we characterize the hydration dynamics of analogous DNA and RNA double helices with unprecedented resolution and elucidate the molecular origin of their differences: localization of the slowest hydration water molecules---in the groove in DNA, next to phosphates in RNA--- and a markedly distinct hydration dynamics of the two phosphate oxygen atoms OR and OS in RNA. Using our Extended Jump Model for water reorientation, we assess the relative importance of previously proposed factors, including the local topography, water bridges and the presence of ions. We show that the slow hydration dynamics at RNA OR sites is not due to bridging water molecules, but is caused by both a larger excluded volume and a stronger initial H-bond next to OR, which can be linked to different phosphate orientations in A-form double helical RNA.

Detecting structural variants (SVs) in whole-genome sequencing poses significant challenges. We present a protocol for variant calling, merging, genotyping, sensitivity analysis, and laboratory validation for generating a high-quality SV call set in whole-genome sequencing from the Alzheimer’s Disease Sequencing Project comprising 578 individuals from 111 families. Employing two complementary pipelines, Scalpel and Parliament, for SV/indel calling, we assessed sensitivity through sample replicates (N = 9) with in silico variant spike-ins. We developed a novel metric, D-score, to evaluate caller specificity for deletions. The accuracy of deletions was evaluated by Sanger sequencing. We generated a high-quality call set of 152,301 deletions of diverse sizes. Sanger sequencing validated 114 of 146 detected deletions (78.1%). Scalpel excelled in accuracy for deletions ≤100 bp, whereas Parliament was optimal for deletions >900 bp. Overall, 83.0% and 72.5% of calls by Scalpel and Parliament were validated, respectively, including all 11 deletions called by both Parliament and Scalpel between 101 and 900 bp. Our flexible protocol successfully generated a high-quality deletion call set and a truth set of Sanger sequencing–validated deletions with precise breakpoints spanning 1–17,000 bp.
Nile Red solvatochromy. TD-DFT calculations and experimental data
Authors: Khristenko Inna , Ivanov Volodymyr
Published: February 2024

The problem of theoretical (quantum chemical) description of electronic absorption spectra and, in particular, solvatochromism, for a well-known Nile Red dye has been investigated. In particular, we consider the use of the time-dependent density functional theory TD-DFT. A number of popular functionals have been investigated, including B3LYP, CAM-B3LYP, M06-L, M06-2X, PBE, BMK, and wB97XD. The standard AO basis set with polarization and diffusion functions 6-31+G(d,p) was used. To describe the effects of the media, three common models based on the polarization-continuum approach were considered. These models include the State Specific (SS) method, the Linear Response (LR) method, and the so-called universal solvation model (Solvation Model Density, SMD). It was found that, in general, the bulk of the functionals are able to qualitative description of the spectral properties of the dye. For the studied system, the best results of the solvation effects descriptions were achieved using the SMD method with the M06-L and B3LYP functionals.
Geochemical proxies of the gryphon breccia of mud volcanoes in East Azerbaijan: regularities in the distribution of chemical elements and spatial characteristics of sedimentation
Authors: Baloglanov Elnur
Published: February 2024

The paper is devoted to the study of the patterns of distribution of major oxides and trace elements in the gryphon breccia of 12 active mud volcanoes located in various oil and gas regions (Absheron, Gobustan and Lower Kura) of Azerbaijan. Interpretations of the chemical elements found in gryphon breccia samples have allowed the composition of their source rocks, sedimentation conditions, and sedimentation areas to be determined.

Purpose. The main goal of the study is to conduct geochemical studies of gryphon breccias belonging to various oil and gas regions, determine spatial patterns, achieve their explanation, and at the same time determine the conditions for the deposition of mud sediments.

Methods. The chemical composition of mud volcanic breccia samples was analyzed using an “S8 TIGER Series 2” spectrometer and an “Agilent 7700 Series ICP-MS” mass spectrometer. Based on the results obtained, in addition to identifying patterns in the areas, modern approaches based on geochemical interpretation were used to explain them. The results on the genesis of breccias are consistent with the results of the published literature on the development of geodynamic and paleobasin conditions in the region.

Results. Samples with the lowest Si content are characteristic of the Lower Kura mud volcanoes, where the youngest (Quaternary) deposits are recorded. In samples from these mud volcanoes, relatively high contents of Mg and P are also noticeable. High contents of Ca are characteristic of volcanoes located near the Caspian Sea. These mud volcanoes are also rich in trace elements such as Li, Ga, Rb, Zr, Mo, Cs, Pr, Tl, Pb, Th, U and others, but depleted in Ni, Sr, Ba and etc.

Conclusions. Plagioclase-rich source rocks and oxygen-dominated paleobasin environments played a key role in the formation of breccia deposits belonging to the mud volcanoes of Azerbaijan. Geochemical proxies make it possible to link the paleobasin conditions of the formation of the gryphon breccia of the most mud volcanoes of South and Central Gobustan with the continental setting, especially in comparison with some volcanoes of the Lower Kura, as well as Gobustan and Absheron, located on the shores of the Caspian Sea and relatively close to it. The breccias of mud volcanoes located at a relatively large distance from the modern sea boundary and in the steepest northern part of the Lower Kura are associated with marine conditions, as are breccias of mud volcanoes located in the south of this tectonic zone (subjected to intense subsidence) and at a short distance from the Caspian Sea, may be due to geological factors.
Decreasing fishy odour from catfish (Clarias sp.) flour as a food ingredient by
using various soaking solutions
Authors: Noviana A. , Palupi E. , Giriwono P.E. , Rimbawan R.
Published: February 2024

Catfish (Clarias sp.) has become one of Indonesia's most popular aquaculture products.
However, it is very perishable and has a short shelf life. It can be preserved by drying it
into catfish flour. Therefore, it is easy to be further utilized for substituting other flour in
the production of foods to enhance their nutritional value. However, the fishy odour of
catfish flour hinders this flour for wide utilization. Various soaking solutions such as lime
juice, lemon juice, milk, coconut water and vinegar are commonly used to decrease the
fishy odour. This study aimed to establish a sensory lexicon by Quantitative Descriptive
Analysis (QDA) and to evaluate the pH and trimethylamine (TMA) value of catfish flour
soaked by various types of soaking solutions. According to a sensory evaluation, 19
attributes were identified. The coconut water at 5% was determined as the most preferred
with a score of 0.74±0.72. It had a high intensity of saltiness and smoky fish aroma
(pleasant attributes), as well as a low fishy smell (unpleasant attribute). The lime juice at
5% had the strongest fishy smell (unpleasant attribute) and umami taste (pleasant
attribute). The pH values of all samples were in the range of 4.16-6.59. The highest pH
value was found in milk at 5%, whereas the lowest one was found in lime juice at 100%.
TMA values ranged from 2.44 to 5.19 mg N/100 g catfish flour. The highest TMA value
was found in lime juice at 5%, but it was within an acceptable range and lower than the
control (6.10±0.86 mg N/100 g catfish flour). The results of this study indicated that
catfish flour made from catfish meat soaked in lime juice, lemon juice, milk, coconut
water, and vinegar provided good quality characteristics, as well as pH and TMA values
within an acceptable range. Therefore, they had the potential to be further developed and
could be considered as an alternative for other flours in developing food products.

Four-Element Biodegradable Substrate-Integrated MIMO DRA with Radiation Diversity
Authors: Verma Rasika , Sharma Rohit
Published: February 2024

This article presents a four-element directional multiple input multiple output (MIMO) rectangular dielectric resonator antenna (RDRA) equipped with strategically placed copper reflector plates to enhance port isolation. This design aims to achieve an extended coverage range without compromising the coverage area. The proposed MIMO antenna is 3D printed using biodegradable polylactic acid to ensure mechanical robustness and then integrated with the substrate to prevent mis-mounting issues. The proposed design exhibits good MIMO characteristics, registering a 3-GHz bandwidth (4–7 GHz) for |S11|≤-10 dB and a minimum radiation gain of 7 dBi for all four RDRAs. The antenna demonstrates a rotation of radiation patterns for different ports, thus enabling beam formation in specific directions. With a beam width of 71.2˚, the antenna covers all directions without any fade zones. The proposed 3D printed antenna offers simplicity, strong MIMO properties, and practicality for wireless communication systems, making it suitable for industrial, scientific, and medical band applications.

Memiliki arti, semakin rendah self esteem seseorang, perilaku compulsive buying akan semakin tinggi, begitu pula sebaliknya, semakin tinggi self esteem seseorang, perilaku compulsive buying akan cenderung rendah.
Análisis experimental del comportamiento para las finanzas y los negocios
Authors: Hernández-Bernal José Armando , Gil-Mateus Edwin , Rojas-Mora Jaime
Published: February 2024

Uno de los elementos clave en el estudio de las disciplinas financieras es el grado de aversión al riesgo que revelan los agentes, lo cual ayuda a comprender la alta volatilidad de los precios de los activos financieros en determinados periodos de tiempo. A pesar de esto, la evidencia empírica que analiza la relación entre aversión al riesgo y el ciclo financiero de booms y quiebras es reducida debido al problema de control que esto implica y es mucho más reducida si se incluye la incidencia que puede tener la formación profesional en disciplinas financieras. Mediante un ejercicio experimental, el presente trabajo revisa el impacto de la formación profesional en finanzas sobre el proceso de toma de decisiones financieras y la exposición al riesgo. El mecanismo estudiado en este trabajo tiene relevancia teórica para la economía del comportamiento y las finanzas, pero también tiene implicaciones para los mercados financieros.

dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menganalisis mengapa sistem kerja kafala yang diimplementasikan oleh Saudi Arabia menyebabkan pelanggaran hak terhadap pekerja migran Indonesia. Penelitian ini menggunakan teori Human Security yaitu Personal Security dan perlindungan hukum serta beberapa konsep seperti Hak Asasi Manusia, Pekerja Migran, Sistem Kafala, Migrasi dan Pembangunan untuk menjawab rumusan masalah karena semuanya mampu untuk menjelaskan adanya pelanggaran hak terhadap pekerja migran yang disebabkan oleh sistem kafala. Hal tersebut terlihat dari berbagai pengaduan dan kasus-kasus yang dialami oleh pekerja migran Indonesia setiap tahunnya yang sebagian besar dilakukan oleh majikan (sponsorship) mereka. Penulis menemukan bahwa sistem kerja kafala yang diimplementasikan oleh Saudi Arabia memiliki kesamaan dengan budaya perbudakan zaman dulu di Jazirah Arab. Selain itu, faktor yang menyebabkan sistem kafala menimbulkan pelanggaran hak adalah kebijakan negara yang cenderung eksploitatif, kondisi kerja yang eksploitatif dan kondisi kehidupan yang eksploitatif. Penelitian ini juga menemukan fakta bahwa implementasi dari sistem syariqah yang diharapkan dapat menghentikan sistem kafala, pada penerapannya masih menggunakan sistem kafala tersebut.
