The number of negative impacts received by husband and wife and children as a result of not registering marriages shows that having marriage registration regulations is something that is very urgent to fight for. Marriage registration rules have led to speculation that marriage registration is only considered an administrative requirement. So that until now, unregistered marriages are often found in society. The purpose of this study is to show the urgency of registering marriages for the parties involved in the marriage. The type of research used is library research originating from regulations, books, writings and others that support this research. This research is a descriptive analysis research which objectively describes the rules for registering marriages by analyzing them using the maqaṣhid sharia system theory as a methodology of Islamic legal philosophy. The author analyzes the marriage registration rules with Jasser Auda's concept of modern Islamic law which complements and updates the classical concept of Maqaṣhid Syariah. Based on the results of the study, the rules for registering marriages are a product of renewal of Islamic law in the contemporary era. Registration of marriages resulting from renewal of Islamic law as a new form of ijtihad for marriage witnesses. By registering a marriage, the civil rights of the parties concerned will be guaranteed. The logical consequence of the development of the times is also the formation of evidence that determines whether or not a marriage is valid. Jasser Auda's system theory, known as the System Approach, is the analytical knife of this research.

Background/Aims: Individual resistance to hypoxia is an important feature of the physiological profile of an organism, particularly in relation to lead-induced toxicity. Methods: Our study focused on evaluating parameters of mitochondrial oxygen consumption, microsomal oxidation, intensity of lipoperoxidation processes and antioxidant defences in the liver of rats with low (LR) and high (HR) resistance to hypoxia to elucidate the mechanisms of action of L-arginine and the NO synthase inhibitor L-NNA before or after exposure to lead nitrate. Results: Our study suggests that the redistribution of oxygen-dependent processes towards mitochondrial processes under the influence of the nitric oxide precursor amino acid L-arginine is an important mechanism for maintaining mitochondrial respiratory chain function during per os lead nitrate exposure (3.6 mg lead nitrate/kg bw per day for 30 days). Animals were given L-arginine at a dose of 600 mg/kg bw (i.p., 30 min) before and after exposure to lead nitrate or the NO synthase inhibitor Nω-nitro-L-arginine (L-NNA) at a dose of 35 mg/kg bw (i.p., 30 min) before and after exposure to lead nitrate. Our experiments demonstrated the efficacy of using lead nitrate to simulate lead-related toxic processes via Pb levels in liver tissue; we demonstrated significantly reduced levels of nitrites and nitrates, i.e. stable metabolites of the nitric oxide system, in both LR and HR animals. The effect of the amino acid L-arginine stabilised the negative effects of lead nitrate exposure in both groups of LR and HR rats. We observed the efficiency of mitochondrial energy supply processes and showed a greater vulnerability of NADH-dependent oxidation during lead nitrate exposure in the liver of HR rats. Conclusion: L-arginine initiated the processes of oxidation of NADH-dependent substrates in the LR group, whereas in the HR group this directionality of processes was more effective when the role of the nitric oxide system was reduced (use of L-NNA). Our study of key antioxidant enzyme activities in rat liver tissue during lead nitrate exposure revealed changes in the catalase-peroxidase activity ratio. We found different activities of antioxidant enzymes in the liver tissue of rats treated with lead nitrate and L-arginine or L-NNA, with a significant increase in GPx activity in the LR group when L-arginine was administered both before and after exposure to lead nitrate.
ANALYSIS OF DETERMINANTS OF SUCCESS FOR VILLAGE-OWNED ENTERPRISES (BUMDESA)
Authors: Sudrajat Ihwan
Published: July 2024

The purpose of this study is to examine the factors that influence the success rate of Village-Owned Enterprises (BUMDesa) from the perspective of the District Heads (Camat). The primary duties and functions of the Camat include overseeing and supervising the implementation of village development related to the existence of BUMDesa and the factors influencing their success. These factors are primarily related to the characteristics of the BUMDesa directors, including their competence, capability, and social culture. This research employs a combination of quantitative descriptive statistics and qualitative methods. The subjects of the study are Camats selected through convenient sampling. The survey was conducted using measurement tools developed by the researcher, based on the theory of Naminse, Zhung, and Zhu (2019), which comprises aspects of competence, capability, and socio-cultural factors. The results show that the number of active BUMDesa in the district is less than 50%; the majority of BUMDesa administrators have a high school education, with only a small proportion (22%) holding a bachelor's degree. Capability or work experience prior to becoming a director is more critical than educational level. Additionally, most BUMDesa directors have other jobs, predominantly as entrepreneurs. This dual-role profession prevents BUMDesa directors from fully focusing on the development of BUMDesa. The influence of the village head is significant in shaping the existence of BUMDesa, with village heads playing a vital role in determining BUMDesa administrators. This role can be both a hindrance and a support. Successful BUMDesa are generally backed by strong support from the village heads. District heads have not yet optimally performed their primary duties and functions, but there is great enthusiasm among them to enhance guidance for BUMDesa, especially in initiating the establishment of joint BUMDesa.

Many ikat weaving crafts are found in Indonesia, including Rote Ndao ikat weaving in East Nusa Tenggara Province. To survive global competition, ikat weaving must have a competitive advantage over other weaving. This research will analyze the competitiveness of Rote Ndao ikat weaving. The method used is SWOT Analysis, which explores strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats. The results showed that Rote Ndao ikat weaving has a unique and classy appeal to motifs and patterns. However, the design that is owned tends to be dark. In contrast, many consumers want lighter colors. Ikat weaving at a lower price is now widely found on the market. Thus, MSME players must diversify products and innovations so that the Rote Ndao ikat weaving motif can be accepted in all market segments. The local Government must also provide a positive climate to support Rote Ndao ikat weaving to become one of the leading products in East Nusa Tenggara Province.
Age affects the dynamic interaction between kinematics and gait stability
Authors: Liang Shengyun
Published: July 2024

Introduction: It is crucial to comprehend the interplay between the center of mass (CoM) and base of support (BoS) in elderly individuals’ body movements, as it could have implications for fall prevention.

Methods: The purpose of this study is to characterize age-related differences using the instantaneous location of the CoM and CoM velocity vector in relation to the dynamically changing BoS during walking. Thirty subjects participated in the experiments. Derivation formulas of feasible stability region and age-related statistical analyses were proposed.

Results: The stability margin and distance to centroid for elderly group were found to be significantly different from the young group (p < 0.05). At heel strike, while the CoMv distance was similar for age-based groups (p > 0.05), older individuals demonstrated a greater CoMv distance to the border than the younger at right limb, which suggesting age-related differences in momentum control. In addition, Bland-Altman analysis indicated that the validity was substantial, making it feasible to capture stride-to-stride variability.

Discussion: The CoM trajectories and feasible stability region could provide a better understanding of human momentum control, underlying mechanisms of body instability and gait imbalance.
A simple computational model for scleral stiffness assessments via air-puff deformation OCT
Authors: De La Hoz Andres , Villegas Lupe , Marcos Susana , Birkenfeld Judith S.
Published: July 2024

Introduction:The mechanical properties of the sclera are related to its structural function, and changes to these properties are believed to contribute to pathologies such as myopia. Air-puff deformation imaging is a tool that uses an imaging system coupled with an air-puff excitation source to induce and measure deformation in a tissuein vivo. Typically used for the study of the cornea’s mechanical properties and IOP, this tool has been proposed as a method to evaluate scleral stiffness.

Methods:In this work, we present a computational model of the rabbit eye to assess scleral deformation under air-puff. Parametric studies were conducted to evaluate the effects of material properties, intraocular pressure, and other parameters on the deformation response. Output from the model was also compared to experimental measurements of air-puff deformation in rabbit eyes under varying IOP.

Results:Central deformation response was found to be most influenced by material properties of the sclera (at site of air-puff and posterior), thickness, and IOP, whereas deformation profile was most influenced by material properties. Experimental and simulated IOP dependence were found to be similar (RMSE = 0.13 mm).

Discussion:Scleral APDI could be a useful tool for quickin vivoassessment of scleral stiffness.

A 49-year-old female patient, asymptomatic, presented to the cardiology office for a right atrial mass, identified incidentally in a non-electrocardiogram (ECG)-gated contrast-enhanced computed tomography, performed for follow-up of pulmonary tuberculosis. Echocardiography, surprisingly, showed an anechogenic ovoid mass in the right atrium measuring 40 × 40 mm2, implanted in the interatrial septum without affecting the tricuspid valve. ECG-gated computed tomography angiography (CTA), confirmed the dimensions of the mass, which presented homogeneous content, calcified areas, and a 12-mm pedicle implanted near the ostium of the coronary sinus. Additionally, contrast uptake and infiltration of adjacent structures were ruled out. In the surgical field, an encapsulated mass with blood content was found, which pathology reported as a hematic endocardial cyst (HEC). These are rare cardiac masses, constituting 1.5% of all primary cardiac tumors. It is usually an incidental finding, and its clinical presentation will depend on its dimensions and the intracardiac hemodynamic impact. A highlighting feature is its anechogenic content on ultrasound, however, multimodality imaging allows for making diagnostic assumptions, discerning between primary cardiac tumors, and provides morphological and hemodynamic information useful for therapeutic decision making. The age of the patient, the large size of the HEC, and its location in the interatrial septum make up a completely atypical presentation of this rare disease, which motivated this report.

Published: July 2024

The Resource-Exhausted City Promotion (RECP) program is a significant initiative by the Chinese government aimed at fostering transformation. The RECP program constitutes a vital avenue for advancing low-carbon transformation, though its influence on microenterprises’ carbon emissions and underlying mechanisms remains unexplored. We use China’s industrial enterprise database from 2003 to 2014 and organize data concerning resource-exhausted cities in China. Employing the staggered Difference-in-Differences (staggered DID) method, the research investigates the impact of the RECP program on enterprise carbon emission intensity. Results show that the impact of the RECP program on enterprise carbon emission intensity is significantly negative. This effect is more significant for enterprises in areas with lower environmental protection pressure, those situated in mining cities, larger enterprises, and those exhibiting higher carbon emission intensity. Furthermore, we identify the influencing channels from the above effect as the screening effect and the tourism development level. The screening effect resulting from the exit of enterprises in highly polluting industries can exacerbate the negative impact of the RECP program on the enterprise carbon emission intensity. Meanwhile, enhancing the level of tourism in the region is a key strategy for the RECP program to further reduce the enterprise carbon emission intensity. This effect emerges as a crucial approach for reducing enterprise carbon emission intensity within the RECP program framework. The results of this study contribute to driving the implementation of such program for government and enterprises.

For sustainable development, the roles of energy efficiency and renewable energy is undeniable. We are passing through the era of globalization and economies are expanding their economic activities across borders. In this scenario, nations are striving for sustainable economic development without hurting the climatic conditions. Therefore, this study employs Bai and Carrion-i-Silvestre unit root test and Westerlund cointegration tests. The variables were found to have mix order of integration and Westerlund test shows cointegration in the panel data. The Method of Moments Quantile Regression (MMQR) is used to ascertain the effects of energy efficiency and economic, environmental, and globalization factors on the load capacity factor (LCF), a measure of environmental quality in G-20 countries. Key findings supporting the Load Capability Curve (LCC) theory show that while initial economic growth (GDP) has a negative impact (coefficient of −0.035 at the median quantile), advanced economic growth (GDP2) improves LCF (coefficient of 0.513 at the 90th quantile and 0.388 at the median). The median quantile coefficient of 0.055 indicates a positive association between the consumption of renewable energy and LCF. Natural resources exhibit a coefficient of 0.061 at the 90th quantile and 0.037 at the median. However, there are drawbacks to both financial globalization and contemporary environmental technology; their coefficients at the median quantile are −0.021 and −0.058, respectively. The work suggests targeted strategies, including more stringent environmental legislation, backing for renewable energy, sustainable resource management, advancements in environmental technologies, regulation of financial globalization, and bolstering of international cooperation.

Published: July 2024

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease with a complex pathological mechanism involving autoimmune response, local inflammation and bone destruction. Metabolic pathways play an important role in immune-related diseases and their immune responses. The pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis may be related to its metabolic dysregulation. Moreover, histological techniques, including genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics and metabolomics, provide powerful tools for comprehensive analysis of molecular changes in biological systems. The present study explores the molecular and metabolic mechanisms of RA, emphasizing the central role of metabolic dysregulation in the RA disease process and highlighting the complexity of metabolic pathways, particularly metabolic remodeling in synovial tissues and its association with cytokine-mediated inflammation. This paper reveals the potential of histological techniques in identifying metabolically relevant therapeutic targets in RA; specifically, we summarize the genetic basis of RA and the dysregulated metabolic pathways, and explore their functional significance in the context of immune cell activation and differentiation. This study demonstrates the critical role of histological techniques in decoding the complex metabolic network of RA and discusses the integration of histological data with other types of biological data.

Background

Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) development is driven by inflammation, in particular myeloid cells, which represent attractive biomarker candidates. Yet to date, the maximum aortic diameter is the only clinically applied predictor of AAA progression and indicator for surgical repair. We postulated that aortic inflammation is reflected in a systemic change of monocyte populations, which we investigated regarding marker potential in AAA diagnosis and prognosis.

Methods

We conducted a single-center retrospective cohort study in a diagnostic setting, measuring monocyte subsets by flow cytometry in peripheral blood samples of 47 AAA patients under surveillance, matched with 25 healthy controls and 25 patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD). In a prognostic setting, we acquired longitudinal data of 60 AAA patients including aneurysm growth assessment by computed tomography at 6-month intervals.

Results

Blood levels of total monocytes, CD16+ monocytes and particularly intermediate monocytes were significantly increased in AAA patients versus healthy individuals and were also elevated compared to PAD patients. The combination of intermediate monocyte and D-dimer blood levels outperformed the individual diagnostic marker values. Additionally, the elevated concentrations of total monocytes, intermediate monocytes, and monocyte-platelet aggregates (MPA) were suited to predict rapid AAA progression over short-term periods of six months. Of note, MPA were identified as independent predictor of AAA disease progression in multivariable analysis.

Conclusion

Circulating monocyte subsets are elevated in AAA patients and support diagnosis and prediction of aneurysm progression. Monocyte subsets and D-dimer reflect different hallmarks (inflammation and hemostasis) of AAA pathology and when combined, may serve as improved biomarker.
Case report: Dual-targeted BCMA and CS1 CAR-T-cell immunotherapy in recurrent and refractory extramedullary multiple myeloma

Published: July 2024

Background

The development of CAR-T-cell immunotherapy has notably elevated the efficacy of treating multiple myeloma. Currently, a variety of targets, including BCMA, CS1, CD38, FcRH5, and GPRC5D, are being investigated. Despite these significant advancements, challenges such as antigen escape, limited persistence of CAR-T cells, and the intricate nature of the tumor microenvironment persist, leading to relapses following treatment.

Case presentation

We report the case of a patient with recurrent and refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) who developed a substantial extramedullary plasmacytoma in the muscles of the lower limb following multiple rounds of radiotherapy and chemotherapy. The patient underwent CAR-T-cell immunotherapy targeting BCMA and CS1; however, the tumor progressed despite treatment. Surgical resection of the extramedullary plasmacytoma was subsequently performed. Upon comparison of the tumor tissue with the adjacent tissue, increased expression of MYBL2 was noted in the tumor tissue, potentially contributing to the lack of improvement in extramedullary relapse after dual-targeted CAR-T cell therapy.

Conclusions

In patients with recurrent and refractory multiple myeloma who underwent multiple cycles of chemotherapy and radiotherapy, dual-targeted CAR-T cell therapy aimed at BCMA and CS1 failed to effectively manage extramedullary relapse. Elevated expression of MYBL2 in multiple myeloma correlates with a poorer prognosis.
