Authors: Wahab Encep Dul , Wibawa Darajat , Muhaemin Enjang , Astuti Dyah Rahmi
Published: April 2023

The media always try their best to represent reality for their audiences, with the hope of retaining readers and increasing company revenues. However, in depicting the reality of religious conflict, the media often contradicts the norms, ethics, and code of ethics of journalism itself. The purpose of this study was to determine the representation of religious conflict in local media, namely the Ahmadiyah conflict in West Java, which was published in the Pikiran Rakyat in news coverage from 2010 to 2011. This study used Teun A. van Dijk's critical discourse analysis method. The results of the study show that Pikiran Rakyat represents the Ahmadiyah conflict in various ways, including dividing the object of its reporting into two camps, strong and weak, by branding Ahmadiyah as a deviant, banned, and disbanded organization. The strong side is an organization supported by the government, and the weak side is Ahmadiyah, which does not receive government protection and support. Pikiran Rakyat presents news sources in this religious conflict in an unfair and balanced manner, presenting more news sources from the majority than Ahmadiyah as a minority. Pikiran Rakyat also represents ways of resolving the Ahmadiyah conflict.
Constructivism Explained Malaysia’s Ratification Withdrawal of International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination (ICERD) in 2018
Authors: Tiara Alen , Surwandono Surwandono
Published: April 2023

Malaysia is one of two Muslim-majority countries in the world that have not ratified ICERD. ICERD is part of the Convention on Human Rights, which obliges each country to eliminate all forms of racial discrimination. After 61 years of Barisan Nasional (BN) in power, Malaysia won the concept of 'New Malaysia' under the new authority of Pakatan Harapan (PH) in the 14th election. PM Mahathir Mohamad followed up on 'New Malaysia' by conveying the discourse on ICERD ratification at the 73rd UN General Assembly. The discourse was canceled in November 2018 after massive resistance from the BN opposition and Muslim-Malay unity. The cancellation of ratification can be explained through constructivism regarding the interests of maintaining economic, social, and political security for Malay-Muslim, which is based on the identity of the Malayan leadership during state formation of Malaysia.

Published: April 2023

A new type of coronavirus that causes pneumonia was first detected in December 2019, in Wuhan. It was first denoted as the 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV). The International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses, Wuhan in December 2019, referred to a new coronavirus capable of infecting humans as SARS-CoV-2. At the same time, the World Health Organization declared the official name of the disease caused by this virus as COVID-19.

In this cross-sectional questionnaire survey, 180 participants out of 190 participants were included to evaluate the knowledge and attitude about the pediatric dental treatment during covid-19 pandemic among parents, who visited the department of Pedodontics and Preventive Dentistry, of Universal College of Medical Sciences, during covid-19 pandemic for three months (February 2021 to April 2021), in Bhairahawa, Nepal.

In this study out of 180 participants, 105(58.33%) were male and 75(41.66%) were female. All parents were concerned and aware of COVID-19. Every child was explained about covid-19 viruses by their parents.

Even though the parents were aware of the Covid-19 pandemic and had discussed it with their children, still they do not prefer any kind of dental treatment even in severe pain. As they thought that other places are less infectious than a pediatric dental clinic.

Thus, the aim of this study was to evaluate the knowledge and attitude of pediatric dental patients’ parents’ towards COVID-1 9 in Bhairahawa, Nepal.

Gestão Federal e o enfrentamento à pandemia do novo Coronavírus no Brasil: o que a mídia jornalística tem a dizer?
Authors: Oliveira Carneiro Iasmin , Cerva Melo Rafael
Published: April 2023

A mídia jornalística é um espaço de produção de diversas condições de saúde e produção de subjetividades, sendo objeto de pesquisa deste artigo. Surgida em meados de dezembro de 2019 na China, a pandemia de Covid-19 tornou-se alvo de grande repercussão dos veículos de comunicação, dada a magnitude da doença para a população mundial. Como objetivo principal, procurou-se responder de que modo a mídia jornalística digital tem veiculado as notícias sobre a gestão federal no que se refere ao enfrentamento da pandemia de Coronavírus, em um jornal de grande circulação do Brasil. A metodologia utilizada foi a qualitativa com análise descritiva de conteúdo, a partir do método proposto por Laurence Bardin. Os principais resultados do estudo parecem apontar que a gestão da pandemia no âmbito federal apresentou uma defasagem no planejamento das estratégias, resultando em desarticulação das ações entre os entes federativos, demora em repasse de verbas, falta de insumos e leitos de UTI em algumas cidades, não reconhecimento da gravidade da doença, descredibilidade na vacinação e até mesmo um falso dilema entre economia e saúde.

Authors: Radinmehr Hojjat , Rahbar Soulmaz
Published: April 2023

Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a hereditary progressive neuromuscular disease of childhood. The survival rate of DMD patients is extremely low. In physiotherapy, electrical stimulation is frequently applied to rehabilitate these patients. The present study aimed to evaluate the effects of electrical stimulation on the muscles of patients with DMD. In this regard limited relevant studies were found, some of which reported the positive effects of low-frequency electrical stimulation on improving muscle strength. Conversely, there were reports of the detrimental effects of electrical stimulation on muscle fibers. Overall, there is  no standard guideline for electrical stimulation in patients with DMD, and further research is required with adequate sample size and follow-up.

Published: April 2023

Introduction: Although carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is an incident entrapment neuropathy disorder, there has been inadequate evidence about the effect evaluation of adding low-level laser therapy to ultrasound (US) plus median nerve glide exercises in these patients. Hence, this research investigated the trace of US plus median nerve glide exercises with and without low-level laser therapy (LLLT).
Materials and Methods: Thirty-six patients with moderate CTS in two groups of intervention were assessed. One group received 10 sessions of adding LLLT to median nerve glide exercises plus US and the other group received median nerve glide exercises plus US without LLLT. Outcome measures were hand grip strength (HGS), visual analogue scale (VAS), Boston questionnaire (BQ), and cross-sectional area (CSA) of the median nerve.
Results: Baseline analysis revealed similarities between the two groups in all parameters. Statistical analysis indicated significant improvement of HGS, VAS, BQ, and CSA of the median nerve in two groups of intervention.
Conclusion: In patients with CTS, US and median nerve glide exercises with and without LLLT significantly improved without the superiority of adding LLLT to mentioned treatment.

Authors: Supriyadi Supriyadi , Hendro Wibowo Gatot Dwi , Asmara Galang , Muhaimin
Published: April 2023

The existence of indigenous peoples has been regulated in Article 18B paragraph (2), which states that the state recognises and respects customary law community units and their traditional rights as long as they are still alive and by development. Society and the principles of the unitary state of the Republic of Indonesia are further regulated in law to provide recognition and respect for customary law communities as a basic concept or pillar of the application of customary law in Indonesia. There is much evidence of traces of the spread of Islam left by their ancestors, both in ancient manuscripts, historical buildings, customs, arts, and various other cultural products, including in the Sumbawa district, which until now apply established principles in everyday life. The regional regulation establishes a traditional institution as a body or institution whose job is to preserve customs in Sumbawa which have been ingrained and rooted in the life of the Sumbawa people, accommodating businesses such as customs for marriage, inheritance, land management, and several other customary norms which have the motto of the Adat principle.

Authors: MUSLU ÇAĞAL Tuğçe , KIRAY Esin , KARİPTAŞ Ergin
Published: April 2023

Objectives: It was aimed to investigate some probiotic properties of Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB) isolated from stool samples taken from 45 healthy 0-4 month old babies, who did not take antibiotics or probiotic supplements in the last 3 months, and who did not have any health problems.
Methods: Six different species were obtained from 21 isolates selected by the method of Mass Spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS).
Results: The most common strain was Lactobacillus rhamnosus with a rate of 59%, followed by Lactobacillus paracasei with a rate of 13.6%. Vancomycin, tetracycline, gentamicin, netilmicin, tobramycin, penicillin, ampicillin, teicoplanin and amikacin antibiotics were used to evaluate the antimicrobial activities of the strains. In our study, while all strains were resistant to the antibiotic amikacin, they were sensitive to tetracycline, penicillin, gentamicin, netilmicin, teicoplanin, vancomycin, ampicillin and tobramycin antibiotics. In the evaluation of the antagonistic activities of LAB, 6 different pathogens (Escherichia coli ATCC 25922, Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 6538, Bacillus subtilis ATCC 6633, S. aureus ATCC 25923, Candida albicans ATCC 10231, Listeria monocytogenes ATCC 19111) were used and it was determined that the strains showed antimicrobial effects on all pathogenic microorganisms. Cholesterol assimilation abilities, T21 and T22 strains achieved the highest cholesterol assimilation rate of 39.1%.
Conclusions: It is thought that most of the isolated strains have probiotic potential, and especially Lactobacillus gasseri T21 and L. paracasei T22 strains may be probiotic strains that can be used in the production of preparations alone or together with other Lactobacillus strains.

Authors: GÜLER AKSU Gülen , İMREK Yasemin
Published: April 2023

The earthquake has long-lasting various mental and behavioral effects on children and adolescents. The aim of this review was to discuss the nature and extent of psychiatric problems, management options, and the process of organizing psychological interventions for affected children. Individuals show a range of physically, emotionally, and cognitively healthy responses that can help them cope with the aftermath of a disaster. Psychiatric symptoms such as acute stress reactions, post-traumatic stress disorder, depression, anxiety disorder, increased risk of suicide, sleep disorders, substance use disorders, and psychotic disorders may develop in some children. Comorbidities and sub-clinical syndromes are also common. There are many risk factors and protective factors in the development of mental disorders. Close follow-up of children at high risk and interventions for psychosocial support may prevent the development of mental disorders. It is very important to start the intervention at the earliest period. The psychological impacts of young disaster victims can be addressed by skilled local volunteers, medical professionals, and educators in primary health care programs. With the nation's overall social and economic recovery, children can recover more quickly from traumatic experiences.

Subject of research: the article is devoted to the development of a methodology for express diagnostics of material properties based on the measurement of macrokinetic parameters of the SHS process.

Purpose of research: plotting the dependence of the microhardness of SHS products on the propagation velocity of the SHS wave and its temperature.

Methods and objects of research: the research objects were the SHS process in the Ni-Al system and the reaction products; To measure the propagation velocity of a high-temperature synthesis wave, an original method of chrono-topographic analysis of thermal imaging data was used; temperature control was carried out by an original method of spectral-brightness pyrometry. The study of the microhardness of experimental samples was carried out using an FM-800 microhardness tester.

Main results of research: in the course of experimental studies, it was shown that the error in determining the propagation velocity of the SHS wave by the method of chrono-topographic analysis of thermal imaging data is 0.1 %, and the error in temperature measurement by the method of spectral-brightness pyrometry is estimated at 0.5 %. It is concluded that the main factor influencing the total error in the SHS wave propagation velocity in the experiment is the inaccuracy of setting the charge parameters for a set of samples. The absolute value of the total error was 3.2 %. A diagnostic trajectory has been constructed that makes it possible, based on the SHS propagation rate and reaction temperature, to evaluate the microhardness of the product and draw a conclusion about the quality of charge preparation for the production of a material with desired properties.

There had been a notable increase in the number of capital market investors in 2020 and 2021 as compared to previous years. In 2020, the number of investors increased by 56.21% from that of the previous year in 2019, and in 2021 it increased to 92.99% as compared to the number in 2020. Such considerable increase was surprising despite the outbreak of Covid pandemic throughout those years, which had an impact on the downturn of community's economy, as seen from an increase in the amount of unemployment by 7.07%, and a poverty rate of 9.8%. Likewise, Indonesia experienced negative economic growth in the quarter II and III of 2020. This study aims to find the factors that influence investors in making investment decisions amidst pandemic conditions that took place in 2020 and 2021 with the variables of Financial Literacy, Influencer’s Influence, Social Media Influence, social environment, and religiosity. It was obvious that these 5 factors had an influence on investment decisions, with the Financial Literacy factor as the factor that had the greatest influence and significance with a regression coefficient of 0.721.

Authors: Sumadi
Published: April 2023

The objective of this study is to investigate the factors that affect Muslim customers' satisfaction and loyalty in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. Customers of restaurants in Yogyakarta are all Muslims. Non-probability sampling was administered to collect data and total of 120 questionnaires were collected. Questionnaires were delivered directly to the target respondents both in person and online by employing a Google form. The Statistical Equation Modeling (SEM) statistical analysis tool, available in IBM® SPSS® Amos, was administered to determine the data. The study's findings demonstrate that customer satisfaction is positively and significantly influenced by product quality, service quality, and halal certification. In addition to that, customer loyalty is significantly influenced by customer satisfaction. Customer loyalty is directly impacted by factors such as product quality and service quality, but halal certification does not possess a positive or significant direct impact on loyalty. Halal assurance must pass through the satisfaction intervening variable before having an impact on loyalty.

Authors: Arianty Erny , Khabibi Akhmad
Published: April 2023

This study aims to analyze the factors that have the highest level of importance in realizing the spin-off implementation of the Sharia Insurance Industry. The method used is qualitative with an Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) approach. Data were obtained from FGDs and AHP questionnaires with informants from AASI, the sharia life and general insurance industry, the Sharia Supervisory Board, the government, and regulators. The research results show that the clarity of policy, or spin-off criteria, has the highest importance. The sub-criteria with the highest level of importance is the clarity in value of tabarru funds which is 50% of the parent fund. The next factor is the actual practice in the industry and the function of monitoring and supervision, respectively. The factors that have the highest level of importance in realizing spin-off effectiveness are the relaxation of a specific aspect and the action of the industry, whether to continue or postpone the spin-off. These aspects include the implementation of tax relief based on the book value of the company's assets, relaxation in reducing costs that occur during and after the spin-off until the SBU is stable and independent, policies related to bank assurance, and policies related to capital. The research implication for industry and regulation considers determining integrated and coordinated efforts to achieve an effective spin-off implementation. The limitation of this research is in determining the factors not based on sub-criteria but the factors as a whole. The novelty of this research is in determining the topic and method, namely analyzing the most dominant factors to realize effectiveness with the AHP method.

Pengukuran kecepatan penyesuaian suku bunga perbankan terhadap perubahan kebijakan moneter sangat penting sehingga diperoleh pemahaman komprehensif atas proses transmisi moneter dan efektivitas kebijakan. Kecepatan perubahan suku bunga deposito dan kredit perbankan ditentukan oleh adanya friksi-friksi transmisi kebijakan moneter ke sektor perbankan dan sektor riil. Penelitian ini mengukur interest rate pass-through perbankan Indonesia yang memiliki karakteristik khas dalam hal tingkat kompetisi perbankan, segmentasi pasar, dan struktur industri perbankan yang tinggi. Interest rate pass-through diukur dengan menggunakan Vector Error Correction Model (VECM) dan Mean Adjusted Lags (MAL). Hasil uji menunjukkan penyesuaian suku bunga membutuhkan waktu yang lama.
