Authors: Javed Muhammad Ahsan , Khan Mahtab Ahmad , Arshad Haroon , Aslam Nazia , Iqbal Azeem Ahmed , Ali Asif , Bukhari Mulazim Hussain
Published: September 2020

Background: The constituents of Lavandula stoechas L. possess antioxidant properties that help in protecting the mucosal cells from oxidative damage and speed up the healing process however, its role in the treatment of ethanol-induced peptic ulcers is not clear.

Objectives: We aimed to evaluate the pharmacological potential of Lavandula stoechas L. extracts for anti-ulcer activity, and compare with the standard drugs and to explore novel treatment for peptic ulcer.

Methods: We evaluated anti-ulcer potential of plant extract in ethanol-induced ulcer model in rats. Omeprazole and ranitidine were standard drugs. After 5 h of disease induction, animals were sacrificed to get tissues for histological evaluation and ulcer index was measured. While the antimicrobial potential of Lavandula stoechas L. aqueous and methanolic extracts was evaluated against different bacterial stains using standard antibiotic discs. Qualitative phytochemical and GCMS analysis were performed to identify novel constituents.

Results: The methanolic extract of Lavandula stoechas L. showed antimicrobial activity against Proteus Mirabilis while the GCMS based analysis revealed the presence of 10 phytochemicals including camphor (antimicrobial agent). The aqueous extract showed significant anti-ulcer activity in ethanol-induced gastric (P < 0.001) and duodenal (P < 0.01) ulcers when compared with controls. Aqueous and methanolic Lavandula stoechas L. extracts showed strong free radical scavenging activity.

Conclusion: Lavandula stoechas L. extract possess antimicrobial and anti-ulcer activity in alcohol-induced ulcer model in experimental animals.

Published: September 2020

A lot of ethnic tribes with diverse social practices, customs, and gatherings are available in the Philippines and one of the ethnic tribes is the Badjao who are recently enticed to move life from the sea to a real existence ashore. Considering the way that they are nomadic, they are dispersed in other cities and towns of Pangasinan. In this connection, the researchers became interested to conduct a study on the perception of the locals in the experienced inequality of the Badjao ethnic group as perceived by them. The study used a qualitative research design specifically a phenomenological approach. Consequently, the interview was aided by an interview guide which is semi structured in nature and the data gathered were analyzed using qualitative content analysis method. As a result, the perception of the participants in experienced inequality of the Badjao ethnic group is discrimination and lack of opportunities which were contributed by their appearance, language, and lifestyle. Moreover, it was concluded that the perception of the locals to the Badjaos are based on the observed traits such as on the physical aspects of discrimination and the way they interact with the locals which leads them to experience prejudice and lack of opportunities. However, in order to help the Badjaos in opposing inequality, the acceptance of the community should be developed in a way that it helps the ethnic group to survive and surpass the challenges in the place they migrated in

We report the detection of a transiting hot Neptune exoplanet orbiting TOI-824 (SCR J1448-5735), a nearby (d = 64 pc) K4V star, using data from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite. The newly discovered planet has a radius R
p = 2.93 ± 0.20

and an orbital period of 1.393 days. Radial velocity measurements using the Planet Finder Spectrograph and the High Accuracy Radial velocity Planet Searcher spectrograph confirm the existence of the planet, and we estimate its mass to be 18.47 ± 1.84

. The planet’s mean density is

 = 4.03

, making it more than twice as dense as Neptune. TOI-824 b's high equilibrium temperature makes the planet likely to have a cloud-free atmosphere, and thus it is an excellent candidate for follow-up atmospheric studies. The detectability of TOI-824 b’s atmosphere from both ground and space is promising and could lead to the detailed characterization of the most irradiated small planet at the edge of the hot Neptune desert that has retained its atmosphere to date.

Published: September 2020

We introduce Many ANnotated TRAnsients (MANTRA), an annotated data set of 4869 transient and 71207 non-transient object light curves built from the Catalina Real-time Transient Survey. We provide public access to this data set as a plain text file to facilitate standardized quantitative comparison of astronomical transient event recognition algorithms. Some of the classes included in the data set are: supernovae, cataclysmic variables, active galactic nuclei, high proper motion stars, blazars, and flares. As an example of the tasks that can be performed on the data set we experiment with multiple data preprocessing methods, feature selection techniques, and popular machine-learning algorithms (support vector machines, random forests, and neural networks). We assess quantitative performance in two classification tasks: binary (transient/non-transient) and eight-class classification. The best-performing algorithm in both tasks is the random forest classifier. It achieves an F1 score of 96.25% in the binary classification and 52.79% in the eight-class classification. For the eight-class classification, non-transients (96.83%) is the class with the highest F1 score, while the lowest corresponds to high proper motion stars (16.79%); for supernovae it achieves a value of 54.57%, close to the average across classes. The next release of MANTRA includes images and benchmarks with deep learning models.

As part of its quality management and goal-driven strategic development, the Finnish Museum of Natural History Luomus drafts policy documents to guide its operational sectors. The purpose of such policies is to define the content and procedures of the Museum’s activities. They answer the questions “what”, “why”, “who” and “for whom” about the activities they discuss, which is to say that they define and delimit the scope of the operational sector, provide the operations with a purpose and determine their content, describe the allocation of responsibilities in the sector under the Luomus organisation and identify the target groups. The policies provide general objectives and thus form the basis for target programmes and any action plans which in turn answer the question “How can we reach the designated goals?”. Policies are not tied to a schedule, unlike target programmes, even though they must be dynamic and updated periodically to better serve the organisation. The core activities at Luomus are: (1) maintenance of the scientific collections, (2) research and (3) expert services. The General Collections Policy sets guidelines for the maintenance of the scientific collections based on the mission of the University of Helsinki and Luomus.
Effect of Insurance Status on Clinical Outcomes After Shoulder Arthroplasty
Authors: Strotman Patrick , Perry Michael , LeDuc Ryan , Joyce Cara , Garbis Nickolas
Published: September 2020

Shoulder arthroplasty is an effective treatment option for patients with symptomatic shoulder arthritis and rotator cuff arthropathy. Although there have been reports of variations in complication rates according to insurance type, few studies have examined the effect of payer status on functional outcomes. Patients who underwent elective shoulder arthroplasty performed by a single fellowship-trained surgeon and had a minimum of 1 year of follow-up were queried. Patient characteristics were compared across insurance types. Each patient completed the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) questionnaire preoperatively and postoperatively. A generalized linear mixed model was specified to predict ASES score at 1 year and included preoperative ASES score as an adjustment variable. A total of 84 patients underwent 91 procedures. Before surgery, ASES score differed by insurance type (
P
=.014), with lower scores in the Medicaid cohort compared with the private insurance cohort (20.4 vs 38.8,
P
=.009). After controlling for baseline ASES score, postoperative ASES score at 1-year follow-up differed by insurance type (
P
<.001). Patients with private insurance had better ASES scores (85.6) than patients with Medicaid (55.2) (
P
<.001) and workers' compensation (57.1) (
P
=.028). Patients with Medicare (80.6) had better ASES scores at follow-up compared with those with Medicaid (
P
<.001). Patients with Medicaid are at risk for significantly lower postoperative functional outcome scores after shoulder arthroplasty compared with patients with private insurance and Medicare. In this study, patients with Medicaid had lower preoperative ASES scores compared with other groups. These observed differences are likely multifactorial and should be acknowledged when counseling patients. [

Locking Plate Combined With Endosteal Fibular Allograft Augmentation for Medial Column Comminuted Proximal Humeral Fracture
Authors: Tuerxun Maimaitiaili , Tuxun Aikebaier , Zeng Langqing , Wang Qiuke , Chen Yunfeng
Published: September 2020

The goal of this study was to evaluate the role of endosteal fibular allografts in the treatment of medial column comminuted proximal humerus fractures with a locking plate. The authors retrospectively analyzed the clinical outcomes of 63 patients (21 men and 42 women) who had proximal humerus fractures with a comminuted medial column and were treated at Shanghai Jiao Tong University Affiliated Sixth People's Hospital, Shanghai, China, with a locking plate, either alone or in combination with a fibular strut allograft, between January 2013 and May 2017. Patients were divided into 2 groups: locking plate combined with fibular allograft (41 patients) and locking plate alone (22 patients). After an average follow-up of 16.3 months, all fractures were healed. Statistically significant differences were seen between the 2 groups in changes in the neck-shaft angle, humeral head height (
P
<.001), and overall incidence of complications (
P
<.05). However, no statistically significant difference was found in the Constant-Murley score. The use of a locking plate in combination with intramedullary fibular allograft augmentation can help to maintain reduction and reduce postoperative complications in the treatment of proximal humerus fractures that are complicated by medial column comminution.

Les configurations de la souveraineté divine en Grèce ancienne (deuxième partie)
Authors: Pironti Gabriella
Published: September 2020

La conférence 2018-2019 a été l’occasion de reprendre l’analyse de la souveraineté divine et de ses multiples configurations, qui avait été inaugurée l’année dernière par l’examen du dossier hésiodique. Le thème avait été abordé alors à travers la relecture de la Théogonie et du mythe de succession qui s’y déploie ; la solidarité profonde entre la souveraineté de Zeus et la répartition des honneurs (timai) parmi les dieux a aussi permis de mettre en lumière et d’interroger le fonctionnement au pluriel de la société divine. Dans cette deuxième conférence, l’analyse a été consacrée aux configurations de divinités qui actualisent la souveraineté dans les cités grecques elles‑mêmes, et aux relations privilégiées qu’Athéna et Héra entretiennent avec le roi des dieux, non seulement dans les traditions narratives, mais également au niveau cultuel.
Religions de Rome et du monde romain
Authors: Belayche Nicole
Published: September 2020

Nous avons d’abord clos notre étude des lieux de culte et communautés religieuses dans le Levant central par ses zones septentrionales (de la Haute Galilée à l’Anti‑Liban en passant par le mont Hermon). Leurs sanctuaires peri/ extra‑urbains et villageois attestent de traditions culturelles diverses et de pratiques et formes d’organisation religieuses qui renvoient à des référents culturels mêlés et posent des questions de traductibilité. Le deuxième semestre a été consacré à un bilan des changements et interactions religieux dans le monde romain oriental étudiés pendant une vingtaine d’années. Quatre thèmes, entrelacés, ont été choisis pour leur capacité à cristalliser à la fois les conditions de ces changements et leurs manifestations en termes religieux – entre l’impact religieux de l’arrivée de l’imperium romain dans les cités et des dynamiques rituelles et théologiques.

Le Patriarcat d’Alexandrie et la construction de la mémoire de son passé entre le ive et le viiie siècle
Authors: Camplani Alberto
Published: September 2020

Les conférences de cette année ont porté sur la construction de la mémoire de la part de l’évêché d’Alexandrie comme une forme de renforcement et de développement de l’institution patriarcale. Après quelques considérations épistémologiques concernant les différents types de sources utiles pour l’histoire des structures ecclésiastiques égyptiennes, les conférences visent à démontrer le lien étroit entre le développement historique du Patriarcat, dans ses relations avec l’Égypte et la Méditerranée, et la formation de son identité et de sa mémoire historique : l’articulation temporelle, la légitimité de la juridiction sur la Cyrénaïque et les autres régions, la parenté particulière du patriarcat avec le pouvoir politique, s’expriment à travers des documents, des récits historiques, des légendes, des figures de saints, qui changent au fil du temps, tout en conservant des éléments idéologiques constants.
Systèmes de pensées et de croyances médiévaux

Dans la continuité du séminaire des trois années précédentes qui avaient porté sur le concept d’ignorance invincible (ignorantia invicibilis) dans la théologie médiévale du xiie au xvie siècles, et sur le lien de ce concept avec les limites acceptables de l’hétérodoxie, le séminaire a examiné deux thèmes qui mobilisent la notion d’ignorance invincible, à savoir la notion de foi implicite (fides implicita) d’une part, et la notion d’idolâtrie, d’autre part. L’ensemble de ces travaux vise à comprendre de façon plus fine les transformations de la religion qui s’opèrent au tournant du Moyen Âge et de la Modernité.

L’Omnipotence divine et la liberté humaine selon les philosophes de l’Iran safavide (xviie siècle)
Authors: Jambet Christian
Published: September 2020

Les conférences ont été consacrées cette année à un problème majeur de la théologie et de la philosophie en terre d’islam : comment concevoir la puissance infinie de Dieu et comment penser l’acte humain, tel qu’il est nécessité par le décret divin ? En fonction des solutions apportées à cette double interrogation, la conception de la liberté humaine, du choix et de la responsabilité de l’homme varie. Ce problème s’enracine dans la contradiction entre la nécessité absolue de l’Être nécessaire par soi et la pauvreté ontologique de l’être en puissance de l’étant créé. Nous avons commencé cette année son étude dans le cadre des philosophies écloses sous le règne de la dynastie safavide dans la Perse du xviie siècle. Nous avons inauguré notre enquête par l’étude de certains textes de Mīr Dāmād (950/1543‑1041/1631) présents dans trois ouvrages majeurs : Taqwīm al‑īmān, al‑Ufuq al‑mubīn, al‑Qabasāt.

Published: September 2020

Grapevine trunk diseases are among the most important limiting factors of worldwide viticulture. In this context, we aimed to verify the effect of chemical fungicides, biological agents and plant extracts on the control of Lasiodiplodia theobromae in pruning wounds and their physiological effects in cv. Syrah grapevines. Plant extracts (clove, cinnamon, garlic, rosemary and lemongrass), commercial fungicides (difeconazole, tebuconazole, mancozeb, sulfur, pyraclostrobin, fosetyl-Al, and azoxystrobin), chitosan, Trichoderma harzianum and Bacillus subtilis were used for the in vitro trials. The protection of pruning wounds in the potted vines was studied using fosetyl-Al, tebuconazole, Trichoderma harzianum, Bacillus subtilis, garlic extract and clove extract. The experiments were carried out through two vegetative cycles: 2015/2016 and 2016/2017. The length of wood discoloration, pathogen re-isolation percentage, fresh mass of the pruning material, peroxidase activity, fluorescence, chlorophyll index, phenological stages, shoot length and leaf area were evaluated. The treatments with clove, garlic extract, tebuconazole, pyraclostrobin, mancozeb, fosetyl-Al and B. subtilis reduced mycelial growth by more than 90%. In the grapevines, the use of T. harzianum decreased the re-isolation of L. theobromae, but no differences were verified for the other plant evaluations. We concluded that the use of T. harzianum would be a potential option for wound protection without altering the physiological aspects of cv. Syrah grapevines.
Estimating the area and weight of cactus forage cladodes using linear dimensions

Published: September 2020

The forage palm is one of the main forages of ruminants in semiarid regions. Measurements of leaf area are required in agronomic studies because they are one of the main parameters used to evaluate plant growth. The objective of this study was to validate and define the best models for estimating the area and weight of Giant Sweet clone (Nopalea cochenillifera) forage cladodes in a non-destructive way based on the linear dimensions of length, width and thickness. There were 432 randomly measured cladodes at 550 days after planting. The length, width and thickness of each cladode were measured using a digital calliper. The cladodes were weighed individually. The cladode area was calculated by the gravimetric method. The power regression model was the most efficient method to explain the cladode area as a function of the product of length by width, while the gamma model was the most efficient method to explain the weight of cladodes as a function of the product of length by width and thickness. The power model,  and gamma model, = 0.536T + 0.028LW, were used to determine the area and weight of Nopalea cochenillifera Giant Sweet clone cladodes, respectively, based on the values of linear dimensions measured independently of the order of the cladode.
Automated mechanical chest compression as a bridge to primary percutaneous coronary intervention: Case report
Authors: Faria Bebiana , Fernandes Marina , Ribeiro Silvia , Lourenço António
Published: September 2020

In a peripheral hospital without primary percutaneous coronary intervention or mechanical circulatory support, therapeutic options in patients with myocardial infarction complicated with cardiogenic shock or refractory cardiopulmonary arrest are very limited. We report a case of a 59-year-old man with acute myocardial infarction with ST-segment elevation complicated by cardiogenic shock and refractory cardiac arrest, transported with ongoing fibrinolysis to another hospital for rescue percutaneous coronary intervention in cardiopulmonary resuscitation with automated mechanical chest compression. This case underlines the difficulty in managing these critically ill patients in peripheral hospitals without advanced resources and discusses some therapeutic options, highlighting automated mechanical chest compression as a bridge to a percutaneous revascularization procedure.

Purpose of Savings and its Determinants in Case of Destitute Population An Empirical Analysis of Slum Dwellers
Authors: Malik Firdous Ahmad , D.K. Yadav  , Ismail Andleeb
Published: September 2020

Research has shown that poor people living in under developing countries are saving less, little is known about the responsible factors which influence savings of these poor urban groups.  The following study is based on Theoretical perspectives for examining the nature of savings among Slum dwellers in Lucknow. Three perspectives have been analysed in the study which are Individual capabilities-oriented perspectives, Sociological perspectives and Institutional mechanism (supply-oriented approach) towards the marginal sections of the society. The responsible factors for low savings are due to monopoly-based supply-oriented banking discipline, financial illiteracy, income of the people etc. Findings of the paper suggests that poor people are worth to save and are saving, particularly if both the banking and institutional barriers are removed and made more inclusive so that poor people themselves try to come out from the problem of poverty.

La mayor parte de los emprendimientos de economía popular y solidaria que se gestan en Ecuador son actividades autónomas de subsistencia, carentes de especialización en sus procesos,y débiles desde todo punto de vista administrativo y comercial; no obstante, son de gran importancia para las economías familiares que encuentran en sus emprendimientos una alternativa a la exclusión del trabajo formal. Este trabajo destaca la importancia y necesidad de agregación de valor en los emprendimientos de economía popular y solidaria. Se evaluó en un grupo de establecimientos, criterios de calidad del producto, servicio, imagen, entre otros, concluyendo que estos emprendimientos requieren estrategias creativas y adaptadas a su realidad para lograr una posición más favorable en el mercado y propiciar su sostenibilidad.

We introduce a general class of weighted spaces $\calH(\beta)$ of holomorphic functions in the unit disk $\mathbb{D}$, which contains several classical spaces, such as Hardy space, Bergman space, Dirichlet space. We~characterize boundedness of composition operators $C_{\varphi}$ induced by affine and monomial symbols $\varphi$ on these spaces $\calH(\beta)$. We also establish a sufficient condition under which the operator $C_{\varphi}$ induced by the symbol $\varphi$ with relatively compact image $\varphi(\mathbb{D})$ in $\mathbb{D}$ is bounded on $\calH(\beta)$. Note that in the setting of $\calH(\beta)$, the characterizations of boundedness of composition operators $C_{\varphi}$ depend closely not only on functional properties of the symbols $\varphi$ but also on the behavior of the weight sequence $\beta$.

The pandemic has killed at least 670,000 people since it hit China's Wuhan, and 17 million cases have been diagnosed. The United States, Brazil, Mexico and Britain have been hit hard by COVID-19 in recent weeks (7/2020) as their governments try to find an effective response. A pandemic is a health crisis that occurs once in a hundred years, the effects of which will be felt for decades (WHO). In the dramatic changes brought about by a crisis, unfortunately many people experience a time of stress and sadness like no other in their lives and then the most common diagnosis is Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and Anxiety Disorder (World Health Organization [WHO]), 2001). In this study we detect and categorize symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) associated with coronavirus disease 2019 in a student population.

Published: September 2020

Self discharge (SD) of hospitalized patients is an adverse clinical event often resulting from a fundamental disagreement between the patient or an interested third party and the attending physician and / or the hospital environment. This culminates in the patient’s withdrawal of their initial voluntary consent for hospitalisation and abrupt termination of in - patient medical care. Patients who left hospital admission against the advice of their doctors are both a concern and a challenge for individuals in the health industry. It negatively impacts treatment outcomes and exposes the clinician and health care administrators to the hazards of litigations. The study was aimed at determining the incidence of SD and associated factors in medical admissions. It was a retrospective descriptive hospital based study of patients who self discharged from medical wards of Federal Medical Center, Makurdi from June 2012 – May 2017. Approval was obtained from the institution’s research ethics board. Thirty one individuals (0.62% of total admission) self discharged within the study period. Financial constraints was responsible for 32.2% (10) of SD followed by proximity to social support 19.4% (6). Five patients (16.1%) elected not to disclose any reasons. The incidence reduced from 0.21% to 0.02% at the start and end of study period respectively. Though SD was relatively low in this study, the incidence could be reduced further by expanding the scope of health insurance scheme, skilful communication and negotiating patient management using patient – centred methods.

The purpose of this paper is to calculate boiler performance by knowing energy losses during steam production. Technical analysis on the boiler is needed, as an effort to increase efficiency and know how much energy is wasted as a loss. Factors causing the greatest heat loss / heat loss in the boiler include: "heat loss due to dry flue gas, steam content in the flue gas, water content in fuel, water content in air supply and others". Heat loss / heat loss or also can be called energy loss is one of the important factors that is very influential in identifying the efficiency of the boiler.For that analysis study is carried out with the calculation of heat loss in order to determine the magnitude of performance decline and the causes of decreased performance. Based on data and analysis of the direct method it is known that the highest energy loss is 26.6% with an efficiency of 74.5%. There needs to be an improvement in the control of the fuel settings and the incoming air optimally by using the Oxygen Trim Control which functions to measure the oxygen concentration in the chimney and automatically regulates the oxygen in the air entering the burner so as to produce combustion with optimal efficiency. And by using an economizer on preheating feed water temperature can increase boiler efficiency

Günümüzde devletlerin çoğunluğu piyasaya kamu girişimciliği yoluyla değil regülasyonlar yoluyla müdahale etmeyi tercih etmektedir. Regülasyonların ise en yoğun görüldüğü sektörler doğal tekel piyasalarıdır. Teknolojide, toplumda ve ekonomide yaşanan ilerlemeler regülasyonlar konusunun tekrar ele alınmasını gerekli kılmaktadır. Enerji piyasaları doğal tekel piyasası özelliklerine sahiptir ve Türkiye için önem taşımaktadır. Bu çalışmada regülasyonların piyasalara olan etkilerinin incelenmesi amaçlanmaktadır. Bu amaç doğrultusunda önce regülasyonlar konusunda literatür taraması yapılmış ve daha sonra günümüz piyasalarında yaşanan regülasyon deneyimleri ele alınmıştır. Çalışmada regülasyonların piyasa performansını olumlu yönde etkileyebileceği sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.

At the time of the riil execution, it was not uncommon to encounter obstacles which caused the execution to not be carried out. One of them is the case of the Supreme Court Decision Number 2394 K/Pdt/2010. Therefore the researcher wants to examine the things that cause riil execution cannot be carried out in terms of civil procedural law and what legal actions can be carried out by the applicant for execution due to riil execution that cannot be carried out in connection with a civil law. The research method used is a normative juridical,analytical methods used in the data are qualitative normative. Based on the research, it can be concluded that what caused the riil execution of the Supreme Court's Decision Number 2394 K/PDT/2010 on 12 January 2012 could not be implemented because of the resistance carried out by the parties executed and third parties carried out by the Sunda Wiwitan indigenous people by carrying out physical resistance which caused casualties to the execution, resistance efforts are carried out to obstruct the process of execution and Legal actions that can be carried out by the applicant for execution due to riil execution that cannot be carried out that is by way of the applicant's execution can submit a request for execution again to the Chairperson of the Kuningan District Court to carry out the second execution.
Diskursus Wacana Keagamaan Pasca Aksi 212 Di Indonesia
Authors: Sauki M.
Published: September 2020

At present, riots that occur between religious communities still occur, but all not because it is solely a matter of religion, but rather social, economic, and political issues in the name of religion. In our own country, Indonesia has also recorded many riots between religious communities. Call it the worst case was the action to defend Islam or known as the 212 action which took place at the end of 2016 and early 2017. This conflict actually started to emerge when Basuki Tjajaya Purnama replaced the position of Governor of DKI Jakarta which was still vacant because the Governor of DKI Jakarta was proposed to be become a President. Basuki, or what is known as Ahok in a structured manner, is obliged to serve as a replacement Governor. There were pros and cons among the community and religionists, especially among Muslims. That they do not want to be led by non-Muslims (Kafir). They think that Islam in Jakarta is the religion of the majority so that a leader should be from the Islamic group not non-Muslim. So it does not rule out if there is a re-election for the Governor of DKI Jakarta, the writer speculates that Ahok will not serve as Governor.

 

Abstrak

Pada dewasa ini, kerusuhan yang terjadi antar umat beragama pun masih terjadi, namun semua bukan karena memang semata-mata persoalan agama, tapi lebih pada persoalan sosial, ekonomi, politik yang mengatasnamakan agama. Di negeri kita sendiri, Indonesia telah banyak tercatat pula kerusuhan antar umat beragama. Sebut saja yang paling parah adalah aksi bela Islam atau yang dikenal dengan aksi 212 yang terjadi di penutupan akhir 2016 dan awal 2017. Konflik ini sebetulnya sudah mulai muncul ketika Basuki Tjajaya Purnama menggantikan posisi kursi Gubernur DKI Jakarta yang masih kosong dikarenakan Gubernur DKI Jakarta diajukan untuk menjadi seorang Presiden. Basuki atau yang dikenal dengan sebutan Ahok secara terstruktur wajib menjabat sebagai Gubernur pengganti. Terjadilah pro dan kontra di kalangan masyarakat dan agamawan, khususnya di kalangan umat Islam. Bahwasanya mereka tidak mau dipimpin oleh non-muslim (Kafir). Mereka beranggapan bahwa Islam yang berada di Jakarta adalah agama mayoritas maka yang menjadi seorang pemimpin seharusnya dari golongan Islam bukan non-Islam. Sehingga tidak menutup kemungkinan jika ada pemilihan ulang Gubernur DKI Jakarta, penulis berspekulatif Ahok tidak akan menjabat sebagai Gubernur.
