THE SIGNIFICANCE OF BALANCING LIFE IN SURAH AL-QASHASH VERSE 77
Authors: Millati Halya , Arif Mohammad
Published: March 2024

Abstract

The theological debate between Jabbariyyah (pre-destination) and Qadariyyah (free will) was polarized during the Covid-19 pandemic. Some Muslims tend to be fatalists (pre-destination), and the others believe in free will on the face of this pandemic. Of course, this is not in line with the moderate principles that Islam brings. Because, in various texts of the Quran, Allah command to balance the welfare of duniawi and hereafter (ukhrawi) life. Among these texts is what Allah said in Surah Al-Qashash verse 77 regarding the command to seek the afterlife and not forgetting sustenance in the world. With the ma'na-cum-maghza approach, this paper answers the significance of the current meaning of the commandment. There are three important points to reveal. The first, al-ma'na al-ta rikhi (historical meaning) of the verse, including advice to Qarun to seek the afterlife's reward without ignorance of the world, good doing, and prohibition of destroying the earth. The second, al-maghza al-tarikhi (the significance of historical phenomena), namely the message to Quraish community to take the middle path by following the Prophet's preaching and still pay attention to the life of the world, and to help others when possible. The third, al-maghza al-mu'as}ir (dynamic significance), namely the principle of the balance of life in the world and the hereafter.

Keywords: balancing life; ma'na cum-maghza; Al-Qashash verse 77.

 

Abstrak

Perdebatan teologis antar paham Jabbariyyah (pre-destination) dan Qadariyyah (free will) terpolarisasi kembali saat masa pandemi Covid-19. Sebagian umat Islam cenderung bersikap fatalis (pre-destination), dan sebagian lagi meyakini kehendak bebas (free will) dalam menghadapi pandemi. Tentu saja hal ini tak sejalan dengan prinsip moderat yang dibawa Islam. Karena, di berbagai teks Al-Quran, Allah mengajak untuk menyeimbangkan kesejahteraan kehidupan duniawi dan ukhrawi. Di antara teks tersebut ialah apa yang Allah firmankan dalam Surah Al-Qashash ayat 77 tentang perintah untuk mencari bagian akhirat dan tidak melupakan rezeki di dunia. Dengan Pendekatan ma’na cum-maghza, tulisan ini menjawab bagaimana signifikansi makna perintah tersebut saat ini. Ada tiga poin penting yang diungkap. Pertama, al-ma’na al-tarikhi (makna historis) ayat tersebut, yakni perintah terhadap Qarun untuk mencari ganjaran akhirat tanpa abai terhadap dunia, berbuat baik, dan larangan merusak bumi. Kedua, al-maghza al-tarikhiy (signifikansi fenomenal historis), yakni pesan terhadap masyarakat Quraish untuk mengambil jalan tengah dengan mengikuti dakwah Nabi dan tetap memerhatikan kehidupan dunia, dan menolong orang lain saat diberi kelapangan. Ketiga, al-maghza al-mu’as}ir (signifikansi dinamis), yakni prinsip keseimbangan kehidupan dunia dan akhirat. Interpretasi demikian ini menjadi alternatif yang bisa menengahi kontradiksi dua paham di atas.

VIOLENCE IN THE NAME OF RELIGION FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF PHILOSOPHY OF LAW
Authors: Solikhudin Muhammad , Sovia Sheyla Nichlatus
Published: March 2024

Violence in the name of religion seems to be being carried out by all groups of Indonesian society. Even in some cases, there are strong nuances to amplify the desecration. Religion that is not inclusive with one-sided truth claims still shows its existence which is quite strong among religious people, especially Muslims. They consider their religious understanding to be an undeniable truth, and is considered a definite reflection of the source of religious teachings. This brings religious people to a life where conflicts often occur between fellow human beings, both fellow believers of same religion but different sects, as well as fellow believers of different religions. In addition, understanding this model will make religious people fall into an extreme religious understanding. Religion is understood as dead dogmas and only deals with the problems of the hereafter and divinity so that it does not have the ability to provide pleasant solutions in solving human problems that are manifested in today's life. This article tries to analyze the problems above by using a philosophy of law approach so that the reader is able to see the problem with an objective view without losing common sense.

Keywords: Religious Violence, Indonesia, The Philosophy of Law.

 

Abstrak

Kekerasan atas nama agama hingga saat ini tampaknya masih terus dilakukan segenap kelompok dari masyarakat Indonesia. Bahkan pada sebagian kasus, ada nuansa kuat untuk menguatkan penodaan tersebut. Keberagamaan yang tidak inklusif dengan klaim kebenaran sepihak masih menampakkan keberadaannya yang cukup kuat di kalangan umat beragama, khususnya umat Islam. Mereka menganggap pemahaman keagamaan yang dianut mereka merupakan kebenaran yang tidak terbantah, serta dianggap pencerminan yang pasti dari sumber ajaran agama. Hal ini membawa umat beragama kepada kehidupan yang sering terjadi konflik antar sesama manusia, baik sesama pemeluk agama yang berbeda aliran, maupun sesama umat yang berbeda agama. Di samping itu, pemahaman model itu akan membuat umat beragama masuk dalam pemahaman keagamaan yang ekstrim. Agama dipahami sebagai dogma-dogma mati dan hanya mengurus masalah akhirat serta ketuhanan sehingga tidak memiliki kemampuan untuk memberikan solusi yang menyenangkan dalam penyelesaian problem kemanusiaan yang terwujud di kehidupan masa kini. Artikel ini mencoba menganalisis permasalahan di atas dengan menggunakan pendekatan filsafat hukum sehingga pembaca mampu melihat permasalahan tersebut dengan pandangan objektif tanpa kehilangan akal sehat.

A Kaidah-kaidah Penafsiran dan Ilmu-ilmu Al-Qur'an
Authors: Cici Cici Noviana
Published: March 2024

Pengkajian terhadap kisah-kisah dalam al-Quran selama ini terfokus pada penggalian aspek bukti kesejarahannya. Hal ini dilakukan untuk membuktikan keberadaan kisah-kisah dalam al-Quran sebagai fakta sejarah yang benar-benar terjadi. Disisi lain, sering kali perhatian terhadap ‘ibrah atau pelajaran yang terkandung dalam kisah justru kurang, bahkan sampai terlalaikan. Mutawalli as-Sya’rawi datang dengan menawarkan pemahaman terhadap kisah dalam al-Quran, tidak hanya dengan menggali ‘ibrahnya saja, melainkan juga menghadirkan kisah serupa pada setiap tempat dan waktu. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan deskriptif-analisis. Apa yang ditawarka oleh as-Sya’rawi tertuang dalam kaidah bahwa suatu kisah yang tidak menyebutkan nama asli tokohnya, maka kisah tersebut akan terulang dimanapun dan kapanpun. Seperti firaun yang dzalim, dikdator, dan menuhankan dirinya. Begitu pula Dzul Qarnain, yang baik dan memberdayakan orang lemah. Sosok-sosok seperti dua tokoh ini akan terusada di dalam kehidupan, dimanapun dan kapanpun.
KONVERGENSI TEOLOGIS: Analisis intertekstual antara Al-Qur'an dan Bibel dalam Tafsir al-Qur’an karya Zainuddin Hamidy dan Fachruddin HS
Authors: Bana Sarifa Aliyal , Kamil Ahmad Zaidanil
Published: March 2024

The discourse of interpreting the Qur'an using the Bible is a controversial topic among mufassirs, especially among contemporary mufassirs in Nusantara. This article aims to discuss the intertextuality interpretation of Zainuddin Hamidy and Fachruddin Hs in Surah Al-Baqarah, especially in the context of using the Bible as a reference in understanding the Qur'an. This intertextuality approach raises interesting questions about how two different scriptures can influence the understanding and interpretation of the Qur'an, as well as its implications for understanding Islam in Indonesia. The research method used in this article is library research with content analysis technique, which allows in-depth analysis of the content of the tafsir al-Qur'an by Zainuddin Hamidy and Fachruddin Hs. By using Edip Yuksel's cross reference theory, the results of this study show that the Biblical quotations set forth by Zainuddin Hamidy and Fachrudin HS in their works are influenced by previous books used as references. There are two intertext models used by Zainuddin Hamidy and Fachrudin HS in Q.S al-Baqarah including: First, the comparative model by comparing the Bibel with the Qur'an or Islamic teachings. Second, the reference model that serves to show the similarity of the theme of the conversation between the Qur'an and the Bibel.
COVID-19: ¿La pandemia nos vino como anillo al dedo?
Authors: Piña López Julio Alfonso , Tapia Grijalva Fernando , Ruiz García Luis Humberto
Published: March 2024

Introducción: Los líderes populistas alrededor del mundo se han distinguido por un manejo de la pandemia de COVID-19 basado en mensajes ambiguos, verdades a medias y hasta en mentiras deliberadas. Sin duda el presidente de México, Andrés Manuel López Obrador, ha recurrido sistemáticamente a ese tipo de mensajes. Objetivo: Analizar la conducta verbal hablada o escrita del presidente López Obrador sobre la pandemia de COVID-19, aportando datos duros que evidencian que la gestión de esta ha sido cuestionable. Metodología: Se revisaron los contenidos discursivos del presidente López Obrador en su cuenta pública de Twitter y su portal web, así como los datos oficiales sobre: 1) Los casos confirmados de la enfermedad; 2) Las defunciones acaecidas; 3) El exceso de mortalidad; 4) Los niveles de pobreza, y 5) El problema del acceso a los servicios de salud en México. Resultados: Más de 7 millones de casos confirmados de la enfermedad, 334,000 defunciones, entre 606 y 801,000 defunciones ocurridas en exceso, casi medio millón de personas que pasaron a la pobreza extrema y 30.3 millones que entre 2018 y 2022 carecieron de acceso a servicios de salud oportuna y de calidad, es el legado consecuencia del manejo político de la pandemia en México. Conclusiones: El contenido de estos puntos revela que la narrativa adoptada por el presidente López Obrador contradice su declaración de que “La pandemia nos vino como anillo al dedo”.

This study aimed to synthesize novel compounds as more effective carbonic anhydrase II inhibitors. For this purpose, 2-(3-methoxy4-(prop-2-yn-1-yloxy)phenyl)-4,5-diphenyl-1H-imidazole (3) was reacted with 3-methoxy-4-(prop-2-yn-1-yloxy)benzaldehyde through the glyoxal reaction to produce a series of imidazole-based 1,2,3-triazoles 5a-f. The synthesized compounds were structurally confirmed using IR, 1H, and 13C NMR techniques. To evaluate their potential as inhibitors of carbonic anhydrase II enzyme, the synthesized compounds were tested via in vitro enzyme inhibition assay. Among the derivatives, compounds 5f and 5a exhibited the most promising inhibitory potential, with IC50 values of 0.025 ± 0.001 and 0.032 ± 0.003 µM, respectively. Both 5a and 5f derivatives have comparable inhibitory potential but 5f was found to be more potent than 5a. Molecular docking analysis revealed that compounds 5a and 5f displayed excellent binding scores of −8.0 and −8.4 kcal mol-1, respectively. The results were further validated by MD simulations. The RMSD analysis revealed the average values of 3.20 Å for the ligand-protein complex, 1.38 Å for the apoprotein, and 7.15 Å for the ligand molecule. Based on the chemical stability and biological importance, the compound 5f was identified as potential lead candidates for the development of more effective carbonic anhydrase II inhibitors.
USO DE FILMES DE QUITOSANA PARA EXTRAÇÃO DO CORANTE ALIMENTAR BORDEAUX S COM QUANTIFICAÇÃO POR ANÁLISE DE IMAGENS DIGITAIS
Authors: de Sá Igor , Feiteira Fernanda , Dornellas Rafael , Pacheco Wagner
Published: March 2024

USE OF CHITOSAN FILMS TO REMOVE BORDEAUX S FOOD COLORING WITH QUANTIFICATION BY DIGITAL IMAGE ANALYSIS. Bordeaux S is a food dye still allowed in Brazil, being present in soft drinks, gelatins, chewing gums, candies and many other industrialized foodstuffs. Because of its carcinogenic potential, it is forbidden to be added to food in Japan, in the USA and in most of the European Union. Many studies related to the employment of digital images analysis to food quality control have been published in recent years mainly due to its low costs of implementation. Nevertheless, one of the few drawbacks of applying this technique is its poor sensitivity, which can be significantly improved by employing solid substrates, such as chitosan films. In this work, chitosan sorbent films were synthesized, characterized and used to retain Bordeaux S present in gelatin samples, followed by recording the films’ images and quantifying the analyte by digital images analysis. The proposed method was able to extract the analyte and eliminate interferences present in the matrixes in a single step. LOD of 20 µg L-1 and LOQ of 74 µg L-1 were obtained, allowing adequate quantification when considering the recommendations of the Brazilian Health Regulatory Agency (ANVISA).
Neurodynamic, Cognitive, and Personal Characteristics of Foreign Students during Adaptation to University Environment
Authors: Varich Lidiya , Zhelonkina Elena , Morozova Irina
Published: March 2024

Foreign students have to adapt to new linguacultural academic environment. The adaptation process affects their neurodynamic, cognitive, and personal indicators. The research involved such psychophysiological parameters as nervous system lability, visual-motor reactions, memory scope, and attention span. The paper introduces the personality profile of an average foreign student, as well as substantiates the importance of neurodynamic, cognitive, and personal indicators during adaptation. In this research, foreign students demonstrated situational rather than personal anxiety, compared with their Russian peers. They developed fatigue associated with poor functional state of the central nervous system. The adaptation peculiarities depended on the nationality: this fact has to be taken into account to optimize adaptation to the new academic environment. The neurodynamic and cognitive features correlated with Russian proficiency. Those that did not speak Russian had poor visual-motor reaction, nervous system lability, memory scope, and attention span, which correlated with maladaptation to the new linguacultural academic environment.

Man Equals Digital Personality vs. Man Has Digital Personality
Authors: Kanakova Anna
Published: March 2024

The Internet is an important part of modern life; however, most virtual processes are beyond the scope of legal control. The state as a legislator regulates relations that originate in the real world. As a result, the law often fails to take into account the specifics of virtual environment. The poor legal regulation comes from the fact that the legislator cannot determine whether digital rights and freedoms are new categories or a continuation of the existing legal provisions. In this article, the author attempts to identify the correct approach by answering the obvious question: Is there a digital life and a separate digital personality, or is the digital space a continuation of the constitutional right to life exercised by a real-life legal subject? The research relied on standard methods of cognition and specific scientific methods, e.g., comparative and formal logical analyses. While analyzing the concept of the constitutional right to life, the author defines the categories of digital image and digital personality in order to develop a variant of legal regulation of digital rights and freedoms. The validity of digital personality depends on the approach the legislator chooses to regulate digital rights and freedoms. If the legislator sees digital rights and freedoms as a continuation of the rights and freedoms that exist in reality, a digital personality is impossible: it is a digital image of a real person in virtual space. If the legislator evaluates rights and freedoms as a new category, a digital personality is a valid concept, but only in the context of artificial intelligence.
Directions for Improving State Judicial Policy in Legal Costs in the Context of Justice Accessibility
Authors: Roze Mihail
Published: March 2024

Court appeal is an integral component of the constitutional right to judicial protection. This paper introduces ways to improve the institution of civil court costs through the prism of justice accessibility. The author studied the optimal mechanisms for paying state fees at civil court; the direct connection between the benefits for the payment of state duty, the principle of justice accessibility, and the right to judicial protection; grounds for granting benefits for the payment of state duty. The author finds it highly undesirable to increase the rates of state duty because this factor can affect the scope of guarantees for judicial protection. However, the current inflation creates prerequisites for an increase in the cost of civil trials for the state, which means expanding the criteria for benefits. A judicial practice analysis revealed no uniformity in the provision of benefits for the payment of state duty but identified the grounds for the application of certain preferential mechanisms. The author proposes to introduce additional guarantees for the right to legal protection, e.g., the institution of financing court costs by a third party, not involved in the case but with guarantees for reimbursement of their costs for financing the trial. The mechanism for investing court costs could be tested in group proceedings.
Speech Competencies in Russian-Speaking Monolinguals of the Tyva Republic in the Context of Tuvan-Russian Bilingualism
Authors: Lickevich Evgeniy
Published: March 2024

This article features monolingualism in the Tuvan-Russian bilingual community. Language acquisition, especially when it is the second language, follows psychological rather than linguistic patterns, e.g., assimilation and imitation. In this research, we made an attempt to study the individual psychological features of speech as a higher mental function. Our respondents positioned themselves as monolinguals and denied that they had an opportunity to practice their second language. The research objective was to identify and record some linguistic competencies in the Tuvan language in Russian monolinguals, as well as to conduct a qualitative analysis of their language skills. We used such diagnostic methods as clinical interview, observation, and questionnaires to obtain data on some linguistic competencies in the second non-native language spoken by monolinguals. While profiling a typical linguistic personality, we recorded some linguistic competencies in the second language that the respondents were not aware of. In the linguistic environment of the Tyva Republic, monolingualism is possible only at the early stages of cognitive development. In ontogenesis, it transforms into psychological bilingualism, and then into multilingualism. The Russian-speaking monolinguals of the Tuva Republic develop their speech competencies in a natural bilingual environment. As a result of the natural bilingual environment, Russian-speaking monolinguals develop unconscious speech competencies that actually make them bilinguals.
Effect of Persian Prosodic Units and Intonation Patterns on Intonation Pattern No. 7 in Iranian Students of Russian
Authors: Azadi Roya , Valipour Alireza
Published: March 2024

Iranian students of Russian often experience problems with phonetics and pronunciation that hinder their listening comprehension. Pronunciation mistakes and native-language interference are the main problems Iranian students have to face while studying Russian. No textbooks in Iran introduce a comparative analysis of Russian and Persian phonetic systems. This research was an attempt to compare the intonation systems of both languages in order to help Iranian students to master Intonation Pattern No.7 and develop their communication skills in the Russian language. Oral speech of 17 Iranian students was processed phonetically and acoustically using PRAAT 6.2.10. This program used pitch and intensity filters to analyze Russian Intonation Pattern No. 7 and visualize speech sounds as graphs. Intonation is a set of prosodic means that segments and structures speech flow in accordance with the message intended. In both languages, intonation patterns convey meaning and express emotions. In this study, native intonation pool prevented the Iranian students from imitating Russian Intonation Pattern No. 7. This comparative acoustic analysis of Russian and Persian intonation systems will help Iranian students to prevent phonetic, rhythmic, and intonation errors in Russian. The results can be used by students, second-language teachers, speech therapists, and communication specialists.

Authors: Arlasheva Lyudmila , Kazin Eduard , Abaskalova Nadyezhda , Gubanova Margarita
Published: March 2024

Innovative approaches improve the quality of modern education, especially when they develop personality and contribute to the psychological and physiological health of students and teachers. The authors modeled and described a health-saving competence of a school teacher. The model consists of several components and covers targets, content, procedures, and assessment. The target block describes the goals, objectives, principles, and approaches to improving the health-saving competence of a school teacher in the process of adaptive and developmental interaction between various subjects of school education. The content block includes a set of education events aimed at solving academic, educational, developmental, social, and recreational tasks in class and during extracurricular activities. The procedural block reflects the types and orientation of adaptive and developmental interaction between subjects of school education. It corrects psychological, pedagogical, and health-saving support for students of primary and secondary schools, depending on their age, behavioral patterns, functional capabilities, and socio-pedagogical environment. The assessment block features psychological, pedagogical, didactic, and information technologies that develop health-saving competence in a school teacher. The theory was supported by an ascertaining and formative experiment based on the abovementioned pedagogical model.
Calculating Costs of Engineering Obstacle Installations as Part of Engineering and Technical Protection Disciplines
Authors: Gavrishev Aleksey
Published: March 2024

Specialists in technical information security deal with the physical security of various industrial objects. This article introduces a new method for approximating costs of installing a concertina razor wire obstacle. The method can be implemented as part of information security disciplines. The research involved a review of academic sources, scientific publications, and regulatory documents, which showed that courses of information security and engineering hardly ever cover the issue of costs calculation. The author developed a method for approximate calculation of the costs of installing reinforced barbed wire in its single-level concertina razor variant, including a simplified training sample for a hypothetical protected object. The results obtained can be applied as part of courses of engineering and information security, e.g., as laboratory tasks, tutorials, or research projects. The results may also be of interest to technical specialists involved in the engineering and technical data protection at various facilities that require physical security.
Improving Professional Competencies of Foreign Language Teachers in the Context of Continuous Teacher Education
Authors: Golovko Ol'ga , Dan'ko Yuriy
Published: March 2024

Pedagogy is currently a priority area of Russian higher education. The authors analyzed research publications, regulatory documents, and international foreign language assessment standards to determine professional competencies of a foreign language teacher. Pedagogical qualifications were studied in the context of pedagogical education as a structure. Any complete level of pedagogical education allows for professional activity; however, each level has a different pedagogical trajectory. Bachelor’s degree is the basic level of teacher education while Master’s degree provides a universal pedagogical trajectory for any education level. Competence is defined as a set of competencies that allow the teacher to organize an effective academic process. Pedagogical competence is a combination of professional and methodological competencies, which are of utmost importance for any teacher. The article introduces a number of ways to improve these competencies in line with formal and informal models. For a foreign language teacher, foreign language communication is the core competence. Its improvement is effective if it follows the system of international exams, e.g., the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR) for Languages. Higher pedagogical education provides a foundation for continuous professional development in an informal learning model, i.e., advanced training programs based on international exams.
Sociologia política da política ou sociologia política do político?
Authors: Machado Igor
Published: March 2024

O presente artigo é um trabalho de natureza teórica, que aborda a dimensão conceitual da sociologia política. O texto argumenta que existem duas possibilidades distintas de foco para a sociologia política: uma sociologia política da política e uma sociologia política do político. Para a distinção entre a política e o político, o artigo toma como base a teorização pós-estruturalista de Laclau e Mouffe e a forma como os autores empregam tais termos. Como a sociologia política da política pode ser considerada uma forma mais tradicional de sociologia política, o texto se concentra em esmiuçar o que seria uma sociologia política do político e, para isso, faz uso de um exemplo específico de uso de uma categoria de análise do político para a compreensão de fenômenos em esferas sociais que não se confundem com a esfera política. Trata-se da categoria populismo para análise do direito, da medicina e da religião.

Characteristics of Users of a Digital Hypnotherapy Intervention for Hot Flashes: Retrospective Study (Preprint)
Authors: Snyder Morgan , Elkins Gary R
Published: March 2024

BACKGROUND

Hot flashes are associated with a lower quality of life and sleep disturbances. Given the many consequences of hot flashes, it is important to find treatments to reduce them. Hypnotherapy, the use of hypnosis for a medical disorder or concern, has been shown in clinical trials to be effective in reducing hot flashes, but it is not routinely used in clinical practice. One solution to close this implementation gap is to administer hypnotherapy for hot flashes via a smartphone app. Evia is a smartphone app that delivers hypnotherapy for hot flashes. Evia has made hypnotherapy more widely accessible for women who are experiencing hot flashes; however, the app has yet to undergo empirical testing. Additionally, research on user characteristics is lacking.

OBJECTIVE

This study aims to (1) determine the average age, stage of menopause, and length of menopause symptoms for users of the Evia app; (2) determine the characteristics of hot flashes and night sweats for users of the Evia app; (3) determine the self-reported sleep quality of users of the Evia app; (4) determine the self-reported mental health of users of the Evia app; and (5) determine the relationship between hot flash frequency and anxiety and depression for users of the Evia app.

METHODS

This study analyzed data collected from participants who have downloaded the Evia app. Data were collected at 1 time point from a self-report questionnaire that assessed the demographic and clinical characteristics of users. The questionnaire was given to users when they downloaded the Evia app. Users of the Evia app fill out a questionnaire upon enrolling in the program and prior to beginning the intervention. This included 9764 users.

RESULTS

Results showed that the mean age of users was 49.31 years. A total of 41.6% (1942/4665) of users reported experiencing 5 or more hot flashes per day, while 51.2% (1473/2877) of users reported having difficulty falling asleep each night and 47.7% (1253/2626) of users reported their sleep quality to be terrible. In addition, 38.4% (1104/2877) of users reported that they often feel anxious or depressed. There was a small, significant, and negative correlation between hot flash frequency and self-report frequency of anxiety and depression (r=–0.09).

CONCLUSIONS

This study showed that the average age of app users is in line with the median age of natural menopause. A large percentage of users reported experiencing 5 or more hot flashes per day, reported difficulties with sleep, and reported experiencing depression and anxiety. These findings are in line with previous studies that assessed hot flash frequency and the consequences of hot flashes. This was the first study to report on the characteristics of users of the Evia app. Results will be used to optimize the hypnotherapy program delivered via the Evia app.

New approaches to kidney transplantation in Ukraine
Authors: Zograbian R.O. , Voroniak O.S.
Published: March 2024

The number of patients with end-stage renal disease in Ukraine, as in the whole world, increases. Kidney transplantation remains the most effective method of treatment for such patients. After 1933, when in Ukraine the world’s first kidney transplantation was performed, the number of there surgeries remained insignificant (up to 130 operations per year). In 2018–2020, the reform of transplantation in Ukraine began due to the change of some laws. And as a result, the number of such operations is gro­wing every year. Control over the transplantation process is carried out by a newly created body of the Ministry of Health of Ukraine, the Ukrainian Transplant Coordination Center. New transplant centers are being created, immunological support of transplant couples is being improved using polymerase chain reaction, flow cytometers and solid-phase methods due to HLA typing of the donor and recipient according to A, B, C, DR, DQ, DP loci, detection of anti-HLA antibodies, allele-specific anti-HLA antibodies using single antigen bead assay. Examinations of patients are carried out at the pre-transplantation stage and as part of monitoring after transplantation. Given the military actions, the lack of aviation and the long time of getting to the clinic, it became possible to preserve organs by methods of hypothermic or nomothermic perfusion. The number of organ transplantations is increasing. In 2023, several successful simultaneous heart and kidney, kidney and pancreas transplantations were performed. The problems of overcoming tissue incompatibility, choosing the optimal immunosuppressive therapy regimen for a given patient, training of nephrologists, wider and more effective use of perfusion machines, new protocols of immunosuppressive therapy, studying the peculiarities of kidney transplantation from marginal donors (the number of which in Ukraine prevails), kidney transplantation in highly sensitized recipients are still actual in Ukraine. The cooperation with our European and American colleagues is very important to improve the long-term results of such operations.

Studi Penerapan Power Wheeling Pembangkit Fotovoltaik Dengan Metode MW-km
Authors: Muhammad Bhayu Bramantyo  , Sasongko Pramonohadi  , Sarjiya
Published: March 2024

Upaya dalam mengurangi emisi karbon pada sektor ketenagalistrikan adalah dengan menerapkan pembangkit energi terbarukan yang lebih ramah lingkungan. Pembangkit fotovoltaik (photovoltaic, PV) sebagai pembangkit terdistribusi (distributed generator, DG) merupakan salah satu pembangkit dari energi terbarukan yang menjadi tren saat ini. DG merupakan pembangkit yang letaknya dekat dengan beban pada jaringan distribusi. Dalam penerapannya, PV DG akan memengaruhi besar rugi daya pada jaringan listrik yang sudah ada (existing), sehingga juga memengaruhi besar biaya rugi energi. Selain itu, ketersediaan lahan yang memadai juga diperlukan dalam pemasangan PV DG.  Hal ini menyebabkan kerja sama antara pelaku usaha penyedia tenaga listrik PV DG dengan partner beban dilakukan secara berjauhan, sehingga menimbulkan masalah penyaluran. Pembangunan saluran distribusi oleh pelaku usaha untuk evakuasi produksi listriknya hampir tidak mungkin dilakukan. Sewa jaringan distribusi menjadi solusi yang menarik, yaitu melalui skema pemanfaatan bersama jaringan distribusi atau power wheeling. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melakukan studi penerapan power wheeling pembangkit PV pada sistem jaringan distribusi IEEE 33 bus, dengan mencari lokasi bus penempatan pembangkit wheeling PV yang menghasilkan total biaya rugi energi dan biaya sewa jaringan distribusi terkecil. Metode MW-km digunakan untuk perhitungan biaya sewa jaringan. Ketersediaan lahan tiap bus juga dipertimbangkan dalam penelitian ini. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa penempatan pembangkit wheeling PV di bus 8 menghasilkan biaya total rugi energi dan biaya sewa jaringan distribusi terkecil selama setahun. Hal tersebut menunjukkan bahwa penempatan pembangkit wheeling PV di sembarang tempat belum tentu menghasilkan total biaya rugi energi dan biaya sewa jaringan distribusi terkecil.
Citra Tekstur Terbaik Untuk Gaussian Naïve Bayes Dengan Interpolasi Nearest Neighbor
Authors: Irwan Budi Santoso  , Shoffin Nahwa Utama  , Supriyono
Published: March 2024

Salah satu faktor yang berpengaruh terhadap kinerja Gaussian naive Bayes classifier (GNBC) dalam klasifikasi citra tekstur adalah ukuran (dimensi) citra. Ukuran citra adalah salah satu kriteria citra tekstur terbaik di samping nilai pikselnya. Pada penelitian ini, diusulkan metode untuk mendapatkan ukuran citra tekstur terbaik terhadap GNBC dengan optimalisasi interpolasi nearest neighbor (NN). Ukuran citra tekstur terbaik dengan nilai piksel hasil interpolasi tersebut membuat GNBC mampu membedakan citra tekstur pada setiap kelasnya dengan kinerja paling tinggi. Langkah pertama metode usulan tersebut adalah menentukan ukuran citra tekstur untuk pelatihan melalui kombinasi ukuran baris dan kolom pada proses optimalisasi. Pengubahan ukuran (resizing) semua citra tekstur asal dengan interpolasi NN adalah langkah penting berikutnya untuk mendapatkan citra tekstur baru. Langkah selanjutnya adalah membangun GNBC berdasarkan citra baru hasil interpolasi dan menentukan akurasi klasifikasinya. Langkah terakhir yaitu memilih ukuran citra tekstur terbaik berdasarkan nilai akurasi klasifikasi terbesar sebagai kriteria pertama dan ukuran citra sebagai kriteria kedua. Evaluasi terhadap metode yang diusulkan tersebut dilakukan menggunakan data citra tekstur dari dataset publik CVonline dengan melibatkan beberapa skenario uji coba dan metode interpolasi. Hasil uji coba menunjukkan bahwa pada skenario yang melibatkan lima kelas citra tekstur, GNBC dengan interpolasi NN memberikan nilai akurasi klasifikasi terkecil 89% dan terbesar 100% pada ukuran citra terbaik, masing-masing 14 × 32 dan 47 × 42. Pada skenario yang melibatkan jumlah kelas kecil hingga besar, GNBC dengan interpolasi NN memberikan akurasi klasifikasi 81,6% - 95%. Dari hasil tersebut, GNBC dengan optimalisasi NN memberikan hasil lebih baik daripada metode interpolasi nonadaptif lainnya (bilinear, bicubic, dan lanczos) dan principal component analysis (PCA).

We examined the effect of maceration frequency on surface area, purge loss, and palatability of eye of round and bottom round steaks. Beef eye of round (n = 12) was cut into 8 steaks each and randomly assigned to 0, 1, 2, or 3 macerations and uncooked or cooked slice shear force (SSF) tenderness determinations. Bottom round muscles (n = 12) were cut into 12 steaks and randomly assigned to 0, 1, 2, or 3 macerations and uncooked or cooked SSF or trained sensory evaluations. Steaks were trimmed to a common size (50 cm2 for eye of round and 80 cm2 for bottom round) prior to maceration with a commercial steak tenderizer. Data were analyzed via mixed ANOVA models using a randomized complete block design. Surface area increased (P < 0.001) by 15.4%, 38.6%, and 62.4% for eye of round steaks and 22.0%, 51.3%, and 70.3% for bottom round steaks after 1, 2, or 3 macerations, respectively. Purge losses did not differ (P ≥ 0.247) for either muscle due to maceration frequency. Uncooked SSF values for eye of round steaks were decreased (P < 0.001) by 6.6%, 19.5%, and 40.0% after 1, 2, and 3 macerations; however, cooked SSF values did not differ (P = 0.077). For bottom round steaks, uncooked SSF values were decreased (P < 0.001) by 32.0%, 45.5%, and 67.2% after 1, 2, and 3 macerations; cooked SSF values for steaks macerated 3 times were 26.6% lower (P = 0.022) than steaks macerated 0, 1, or 2 times. Cooking losses were greater (P < 0.001) for macerated eye of round (5.4% to 7.2%) and bottom round steaks (7.6% to 10.8%). Maceration decreased (P < 0.001) sensory juiciness and connective tissue ratings and increased (P < 0.001) sensory tenderness ratings. Maceration increased surface area and improved tenderness.
