ثنائية البعل والمرأة من خلال قصة إبراهيم عليه السلام في القرآن الكريم: دراسة دلالية اجتماعية
Authors: Mohammad Mjalli Ahmad Rababa'h
Published: February 2021

The research aims to study the social significance in the conjunction of the word (woman) with (Baal) in one context, therefore, the linguistic meanings of these two terms are investigated, and what can be derived from their root of vocabulary, and subsequently this is applied to the story of Ibrahim, peace be upon him, with his wife Sarah. The Study concluded that the concept of Baal and what is derived from it means:  what grows in a place where water does not reach from a place higher than it, but only by what comes from the clouds, even if it intensifies and is solid and its roots reach the layers of the wet ground till it needs no more water, it takes it as much as needed, then it is distinguished with its fruit which is between wet and dry. Describing the female as (the woman) indicates that her nature is based on her need to others, and that she has the ability to adapt to  it, and this has been mentioned in the Holy Qur’an, or that the female is referred to as the original innocence, or that she has reached the summit of feminist perfection, especially in the context of overcoming crises, and what is related to marital life has emerged through the dualism of Ibrahim, peace be upon him, and his wife Sarah.

The phenomenon of racism has always been the most complex of social problems that still haunt mankind's ideas from time immemorial up to the present day. It leaves deep wounds in the history of peoples and nationalities and is being adopted to provoke wars and conflicts among them, threatening societal peace and human security. The emergence of the Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, has been a turning point in human history, as he has laid the foundations for coexistence and integration among different peoples and ethnicities, and this is what has been known as the Civil Document at the time. This work aims to demonstrate the phenomenon of racism, determine its causes, attain appropriate solutions to combat it, and classify it in a way that results in achieving societal stability between the different nationalities and ethnicities. To achieve the objectives of the study, the following two approaches- inductive and analytical, are used. The study concludes that it is impossible to completely eradicate the phenomenon of racism. However, it is possible to work to reduce it to the minimum, to raise community awareness as an effective way to combat this phenomenon, and enact laws that punish the instigators of this phenomenon. The current study recommends the need to activate the role of the media, hold related courses and workshops, and to activate the role of preachers and teachers of schools and universities in society.
Penetrating Injury from Interpersonal Violence and Related Haemorrhagic Shock Resuscitation Practices in An Urban South African Emergency Medical Service
Authors: Zalgaonker Mustafa , Naidoo Navindhra , Christopher Lloyd Denzil
Published: February 2021

Introduction

Physical injury is a major cause of premature death and/or disability worldwide. South African mortality statistics indicate approximately half of all injury-related deaths were intentional, often from sharp-force injuries. Injury surveillance data for victims of penetrating injury is scarce in low- to middle-income countries with a reliance on mortality data. The aim was to provide an epidemiological description of penetrating injury and the related haemorrhagic shock resuscitation practice in a South African emergency medical service.

Methods

A prospective, observational, descriptive study was conducted in urban Cape Town. ‘R’ statistical computing was used. Emergency care providers voluntarily documented parameters for mechanism of injury, vital signs, intravenous fluid resuscitation and demographic information for patients with penetrating injury.

Results

Of 2884 (N) penetrating trauma cases, 143 (n) cases were sampled from providers. The chest (35.7%) and upper-limbs (31.5%) were the most common anatomy for penetrating injuries. The estimated mean crystalloid fluid volume administered for penetrating abdominal and chest injuries was 1010.6 mL and 925.3 mL respectively. A statistically significant association was observed between fluid administration and clinical indications such as systolic and diastolic blood pressure, heart rate, capillary refill time, level of consciousness estimation from the scene of the incident to the hospital after intravenous fluid administration. Most emergency medical service call outs (56%) were likely to occur between 20:00 and 02:00.

Conclusion

The intravenous fluid management by pre-hospital emergency care providers for patients with penetrating traumatic injuries, do not cohere with hypotensive resuscitative recommendations. Future research must include clinical practice guideline implementation efficacy and pre-hospital surveillance mechanisms. This study informs hospital clinician expectations for penetrating trauma care by pre-hospital providers.

Authors: Aringazina Raisa , Kurmanalina Gulnara , Kurmanalin Bakhtiyar , Degtyarevskaya Tatyana
Published: February 2021

Objective: About 90% of cardiovascular diseases can be prevented. In recent years, the role of vitamin D in the prevention of cardiovascular disease and components of metabolic syndrome has been actively discussed. The study aimed to investigate the possible influence of vitamin D3 on the emergence risk of metabolic syndrome and adverse cardiovascular events.

Materials and methods: The study enrolled a total of 336 people (170 males and 166 females) aged 50-60 years. For comparative analysis, two groups were formed: Group 1 group involved 150 people treated with placebo, and Group 2 group included 186 people who received vitamin D3 orally in a dose of 2000 IU/day. The duration of treatment and observation was four years. Participants in the study completed a questionnaire developed by the authors of this paper, in which they answered questions about the presence of factors contributing to the development of cardiovascular pathology.

Results and Discussion: Daily oral intake of vitamin D3 in a dose of 2000 IU/day for four years did not improve laboratory indicators, which are components of MS, namely, the content in the blood of TC, TG, LDL, HDL, AI, fasting and postprandial glycemia, insulin, and insulin resistance index HOMA2-IR (p>0.05). Prolonged use of vitamin D3 did not reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases (myocardial infarcts (RR=0.93, 95% CI [0.21-4.09], p=0.92), strokes (RR=1.24, 95% CI [0.18-8.70], p=0.83), stenting (RR=1,23, 95% CI [0.32-4.88], p=0.76), arterial hypertension (RR=1.12, 95% CI [0.47-2.68], p=0.81), as well as cardiovascular death rates (RR=0.83, 95% CI [0.14-4.88], p=0.83) and death from any other causes (RR=0.93, 95% CI [0.21- 4.09], p=0.92).

Conclusion: Thus, daily prolonged oral administration of vitamin D3 in a dose of 2000 IU/day does not contribute to the improvement of blood lipid spectrum, glycemia, and insulin resistance in metabolic syndrome and does not reduce the risk of adverse (fatal and non-fatal) cardiovascular events.

This study aims to assess the comparative cytotoxic activity of the ethanolic extract of Mikania cordata (MC), Mikania micrantha (MM) and Mikania scandens (MS) (Family: Asteraceae) using brine shrimp lethality bioassay and colorimetric sulforhodamine B assay method. In SRB assay, A549 human lung carcinoma, SK-Mel-2 skin melanoma and B16F1 mouse melanoma cell lines were used. In brine shrimp assay, the LC50 for MC, MM, MS and vincristine were found to be 29.04, 15.84, 32.35, and 1.2 μg/ml, respectively. The results indicate that all the Mikania species showed moderate lethality against nauplii. In SRB assay, 50% cell growth inhibition concentration (IC50) of MC, MM, MS and cisplatin against B16-F1 were 33, 15, 39 and 6.8 μg/ml, respectively. Similar data were observed for other cell lines indicating moderate cytotoxicity of the extracts. Among the species, M. micrantha showed relatively potent cytotoxic effect followed by M. cordata and M. scandens. Similar data were observed for brine shrimp lethality bioassay and the results suggest that M. micrantha possesses highest cytotoxic potentials among all the species.

Evaluation of Red and Green Colored Bell peppers for the Production of Polyclonal IgM and IgG Antibodies in Murine Spleen Cells
Authors: Sarker Md Moklesur Rahman
Published: February 2021

Immunostimulants are greatly required for the upregulation of immunity to fight against viral and bacterial infections and cancers. Bell peppers (Capsicum annuum L.), eaten as vegetables, are rich sources of vitamin C and E, provitamin A, β-carotene, and numerous phenolic compounds. Antimicrobial, antioxidant, anti-mutagenic and anti-inflammatory properties of Bell peppers were reported. Our research group for the first time reported the immunomodulatory activities of Bell peppers. In this study, we evaluated the antibody production abilities of two different colored Bell peppers (red and green) in the culture of antibody producing splenic B cells of mice. Antibodies and the number of viable cells were determined by an ELISA and MTT assays, respectively. Red Bell pepper Extract (RBPE) at the doses of (0.375, 0.75, 1.5, and 2.25 mg/mL) significantly augmented the production of polyclonal IgM and IgG antibodies in-vitro. The highest amount of IgM antibody production was observed by the dose of 1.5 mg/kg which was 3 times higher than that of the untreated cells. Similarly, RBPE also enhanced the production of IgG antibody in the culture of murine splenic B cells. On the contrary, cultural treatment of murine splenic B cells with Green Bell pepper Extract (GBPE) could not stimulate the B cells, and hence, failed to produce neither IgM nor IgG antibody. Thus the current findings suggest that consumption of Red Bell Pepper extract or its vegetables, not green pepper, may be beneficial to strengthen humoral immune responses.

Published: February 2021

Viral infection has made the world to pass through the most critical time of the current century. In December 2019, the Wuhan city of China faced a novel etiological viral agent with atypical secondary pneumonia. The unique virus was severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) that caused coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. According to the worldometer data, as of December 24, 2020, the world lost more than 1.74 million lives and infected more than 79.3 million people with the novel coronavirus-2. As there is no approved drug to combat the disease or vaccine against the virus, the infection continuously triumphed over the current medical system. The epidemiological analysis showed that geriatric patients are generally the most susceptible to the viral infection, and pediatric patients exhibited milder complications. The clinical characteristics of COVID-19 displayed that the most frequent symptoms are dry cough, fever, dyspnea, and sputum production. Herd immunity is a tested strategy that could moderate viral transmission in developing countries. In this study, authors abridged the epidemiological outcomes, clinical features, and pathophysiology of SARS-CoV-2 infection. The article also focused on vaccine development, herd immunity, and the most promising repurposed therapeutics for the treatment of COVID-19 with their clinical trial updates.

Authors: KILIÇKAYA Derya
Published: February 2021

Bu çalışmada, Attilâ İlhan’ın 1980’li yıllarda yayımladığı Fena Halde Leman ve Haco Hanım Vay isimli iki romanı ele alınmaktadır. Romanları değerlendirirken odak noktamız “şehir” olmuştur. Bu iki roman, her ne kadar yayımlandıkları yıllarda içerdikleri cinsel mevzularla dikkatleri çekmiş olsalar da aslında, farklı şehirleri ele almaları ve onları çok iyi bir şekilde yansıtmalarıyla da öne çıkarlar. Makalemizde bu iki kitapta yer alan toplamda beş şehirden bahsedilmiştir. Bunlar; İzmir, Paris, Şam, Beyrut ve Halep’tir. Bu beş şehir arasında romanlarda en ayrıntılı şekilde ele alınanlar İzmir, Paris ve Şam’dır. Bu üç şehirden Paris, sadece Fena Halde Leman romanında geçerken Şam ise yalnızca Haco Hanım Vay adlı eserde mevzubahis edilir. Dolayısıyla İzmir, her iki romanda da uzun uzun anlatılan, tasvir edilen, güneşli, yağmurlu, rüzgârlı, sisli günleriyle, kısacası her yönüyle ele alınan bir şehirdir. Bu yüzden yazıda önce İzmir genel olarak değerlendirilmiş, sonrasında ise romanlarda geçen İzmir’in semtleri ele alınmıştır.

A leptospirose é uma doença de veiculação hídrica causada por bactérias do gênero Leptospira. O objetivo deste trabalho foi analisar a relação entre a precipitação pluviométrica e a taxa de incidência de leptospirose humana no Estado de Minas Gerais de janeiro de 2001 a dezembro de 2017. Foi realizado um estudo observacional do tipo ecológico. A distribuição anual demonstrou um padrão de sazonalidade dos casos de leptospirose. os meses, a maior ocorrência da doença foi observada nos períodos chuvosos, de outubro a março. Nos meses de transição entre a estação chuvosa e a seca (abril) e da estação seca para a chuvosa (setembro) ainda foi observado um número maior de casos que poderiam estar associados às chuvas do mês anterior ou ainda às chuvas de final e início de estação, respectivamente. Nos demais meses, os casos que ocorreram não apresentam relação evidente com a precipitação, pois são meses com baixa pluviosidade. Analisando a série histórica verificou-se que picos da taxa de incidência de leptospirose ocorreram após picos de precipitação. O presente estudo demonstrou que no Estado de Minas Gerais a leptospirose é endêmica e que a sazonalidade dos casos está fortemente associada ao aumento da precipitação pluviométrica.

The samples were collected into three stations representing the Chacororé-Sinhá Mariana lakes and the transition between them. This study had as purpose to evaluate the spatial and temporal dynamic of biomass in E. crassipes in the stands of this specie in Chacororé-Sinhá Mariana “baía” system. The results shown that both lakes shown bigger biomass during flood, and that in transition sample area were verified the bigger biomass of studied areas. This research supports another studies realized in the Pantanal about the importance of the “flood pulse” in the temporal variation of the biomass and shown that the variation of the biomass of E. crassipes in the lakes evidence the spatial heterogeneity which exists between those lakes. In this way the aquatic macrophyte can indicate the impacts resulting of the hydrological changes in this system of lakes.

Judith Herzberg, 1934
Authors: van Kalmthout Ton
Published: February 2021

Moest hij in Nederland iemand kiezen voor de Nobelprijs voor Literatuur, schreef Arnon Grunberg op 30 januari 2018 op de voorpagina van de Volkskrant, dan zou het Judith Herzberg zijn. Weinigen zullen het met hem oneens zijn dat de schrijfster, die nog altijd actief is, een indrukwekkende staat van dienst heeft in de literaire wereld. Ze is de auteur van gedichten, toneelstukken en libretti, van essays en brievenbundels, filmscenario’s en televisiespelen, en ook van een aantal kortere prozateksten en een jeugdboek – een oeuvre dat inmiddels zo’n vijftig titels in het Nederlands telt. Er zijn tientallen studies en andere beschouwingen aan haar werk gewijd, niet alleen in het Nederlandse, maar bijvoorbeeld ook in het Duitse taalgebied, waar ze eveneens naam heeft gemaakt. In Nederland is ze vooral gevierd om haar poëzie, die haar dramatische werk wel eens heeft overschaduwd. Nog minder bekend zijn haar vertalingen en bewerkingen, die toch een essentieel en interessant onderdeel van haar literaire bedrijvigheid mogen heten. Daarom worden ze hier in de schijnwerpers gezet en in verband gebracht met haar andere werk.

Diagramming Disability: A Deleuzian Approach to Researching Childhood Disability
Authors: Ruddick Sue , Stephens Lindsay , McKeever Patricia
Published: February 2021

This article presents diagrams (in the Deleuzian sense) developed from the insights of three middle school children with limited mobility about their experiences navigating social and spatial relations in their home, school and neighbourhoods. The paper explores the concept of assemblage as well as operationalising the Deleuzian idea of the diagram. The diagrams we produce (and the experiences they express) are developed in connection with dominant idealisations of neighbourhood and home range that function in North America to choreograph children's progression from infancy through adolescence. We undertake this diagramming in order to immediately and affectively illustrate the limits and possibilities of the challenges these young people face.
Simultaneity and Coexistence: Audible Overlaps in Cinematic Time
Authors: Batcho James
Published: February 2021

This article builds upon concepts of simultaneity and coexistence offered by Bergson and Deleuze to explore new approaches to cinematic audibility. Recognised film theory terms such as synchronisation and synchresis approach sonic time from the transcendent distance of audioviewership. This essay moves cinematic experience inward to ask what is audible within the film world itself. Simultaneity and coexistence penetrate cinematic time to express a multiplicity of audible layers, threads or lines that occur in relation to image-events. The essay both advances and critiques Bergson's and Deleuze's conceptions of time, making it relevant to both film studies and metaphysics.
John Polwhele's Horatian Translations
Authors: Gillespie Stuart
Published: February 2021

The poems and translations of John Polwhele ( c.1606–1672) are preserved in a single autograph manuscript, Bodleian MS English poetry f. 16. Some have received intermittent scholarly attention in recent times, often on account of Polwhele's admiration for and emulation of Ben Jonson. As well as other classical translations, Polwhele's manuscript includes eleven poems and passages from Horace, nearly all of them versions of odes and epodes. A handful have been printed or partially printed before. The purpose of this contribution is to provide transcribed texts of the complete set in a uniform way in a single document. As well as the Jonsonian connections of Polwhele's Horatian writings, they are of scholarly interest because they use Horace as a vehicle for comment on the translator's own times, including events of the English civil war period such as the regicide of 1649.
Trying not to get Paradise Lost in Translation
Authors: Andričík Marián
Published: February 2021

The author of a recently published translation of Milton's Paradise Lost into Slovak here gives an account of his approach. His version is in a form of blank verse and has a line count matching Milton's, whereas other Slavic translators (Czech, Polish, Russian) tend towards expansion both in line length and overall line-count. Structural differences between English and Slovak, and the different ‘semantic density’ of the languages, do not, it is argued, preclude the attempt. The core concern is how to construct iambic pentameters while also preserving Milton's meanings in a language to which blank verse does not come easily. Milton's language and the translator's handling of Milton's biblical references are more briefly considered.
