Penggunaan Syair Arab Pra-Islam dalam Tafsir Alquran: Kajian Hermeneutik terhadap Pemikiran Thaha Husain
Authors: Sufriyansyah Sufriyansyah , Arifinsyah Arifinsyah
Published: May 2024

This paper aims to elucidate Thaha Husain's thoughts on the use of pre-Islamic poetry in the exegesis of the Quran. Husain was a contemporary Islamic thinker who emphasized the importance of Islamic reasoning in the effort to reconstruct a comprehensive understanding of the Quranic text. The focus of the study primarily addresses the authenticity of pre-Islamic poetry, its urgency in interpreting the Quran, and how the Quran views pre-Islamic Arab society. Husain perceives that Quranic teachings align with rational thought. He endeavors to reconstruct Islamic thought through hermeneutical and critical-historical approaches, particularly through literary and historical lenses. This research indicates that much of the pre-Islamic poetry was not composed during the pre-Islamic era by pre-Islamic Arab poets but by imitators during the Abbasid Dynasty for various purposes: political, religious, storytelling, and hadith narrators. According to Thaha Husain, many pre-Islamic poems do not resonate with pre-Islamic Arabs or objectively depict pre-Islamic Arab society. Husain employs Western scientific concepts such as semiology, philology, and Cartesian deconstruction as analytical tools in examining the Quran. It is not surprising that Husain's skepticism in evaluating pre-Islamic Arab literature has stirred controversy in Egypt.

Published: May 2024

This article aims to review the tradition of bajapuik in Minangkabau customs in Pariaman, West Sumatra through ethnographic study as an effort to anticipate the misinterpretation of this tradition as local cultural wisdom. The focus of this study is an analysis of the tradition where a woman proposes to a man for marriage, which is a distinctive feature in Pariaman and not generally applicable across the entire West Sumatra region. This ethnographic review elaborates on historical literature, cultural anthropology, and local documentation to further identify the roots and uniqueness of the bajapuik tradition. Additionally, this article seeks to explore the socio-economic factors influencing the evolution of the bajapuik tradition. The bajapuik tradition is not merely a formal ceremony but also reflects social, symbolic values, and mutual respect between both parties in the context of marriage. To preserve the sustainability of this culture and tradition, there is a need for collaboration between religious, customary, and cultural values in interpreting and respecting the practice of proposing to men.

The Covid-19 pandemic has had negative implications for the education sector, including Special Schools. This study was conducted to analyze formal pedagogical practices in Special Schools and the adaptations made by students with disabilities during the Covid-19 pandemic. This study was conducted using qualitative research methods and a phenomenological approach. Robert K. Merton's adaptation theory is used to analyze the types of adaptations made by students with disabilities to formal pedagogical practices during the Covid-19 pandemic. This study finds that the Covid-19 pandemic reproduces formal pedagogical practices in two formats, namely online and hybrid. Apart from that, the form of adaptation of students with disabilities is largely determined by their physical, cognitive, and mental conditions. Among them are students with intellectual disabilities who have the innovation adaptation type, then students with deaf-speech impairments who have the conformity adaptation type, and students with autism have the ritualism adaptation type. This type of adaptation reflects the dynamics and complexity of students with disabilities when carrying out the learning process during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Authors: Irwandi Irwandi , Fajri Muhamad , Albert Albert
Published: May 2024

Research exploring language disparities between men and women from a solely biological standpoint remains limited. Nevertheless, numerous studies have highlighted significant differences in language use, especially within social, political, and cultural contexts. These variations are intricately tied to the social structure, reflecting power dynamics within male-female relationships. Adopting an interpretive approach, the examination of gender disparities in language seeks to uncover social realities shaped by diverse gender roles and relationships. Moreover, this inquiry delves into the importance of grasping these linguistic variances to facilitate effective interpersonal communication. Understanding such nuances is pivotal for navigating and bridging potential communication barriers, fostering more meaningful and inclusive interactions across various social landscapes. By acknowledging and comprehending these distinctions, individuals can enhance communication efficacy and foster mutual understanding between genders.

Autoerotism is the practice of sexual stimulation. The most common autoerotic practice is masturbation, and these two terms are often used interchangeably, although masturbation can also occur with a partner. Recent data from the European Study on Aging Men have shown that masturbation is an independent indicator in the overall global assessment of sexual health.Masturbation has long been ostracized and considered a moral sin by several religions such as Judaism, Islam, and Christianity. Traditionally, such sexual behavior has been associated with many diseases, such as madness, seizures, blindness and even impotence. Today, masturbation is no longer considered a harmful habit, as it can even help to protect people from the risk of sexually transmitted diseases.The objective: to study the relationship between the influence of malakia and the development of psychoemotional disorders in young people using the example of medical students of the 4th–5th years of the National Pirogov Memorial Medical University.Materials and methods. A clinical and psychological examination of 1118 medical students was carried out using the screening scales “Patient Health Questionnaire” (PHQ-9) and the questionnaire “General Anxiety Disorder-7” (GAD-7).Domestic and foreign students were divided into two groups based on their attitude to masturbation and its application in everyday life. Namely: on those who have a positive attitude to this type of self-pleasure, and on those who consider it absolutely unacceptable. The levels of anxiety and depressive disorders in both groups of respondents were determined and then compared.Results. It was established that 19.3% of domestic students and 31.2% of foreign respondents do not have anxiety disorders. Among domestic sexually active students, a mild degree of anxiety prevails (44.4%), a moderate degree is found in 26%, and a severe degree – in 10.4%. Among virgin domestic students, a mild degree of anxiety prevails, which is found in 46.6% of respondents, a medium degree in 20%, and a severe degree in 13.4%.Among sexually active foreign students, mild anxiety disorder was most common in 34.7% of cases, moderate in 15.4% of cases, and severe in 13.8%. Among virgin foreign students, 34.5% have a mild degree of anxiety, 21.4% have a medium degree, and 17.8% have a severe degree of anxiety.No influence of masturbation on the development of depressive disorders in medical students was found (X2=1.41; p≥0.05), but it was found that autoerotic practice affects their anxiety level (X2=6.37; p<0.05).Conclusions. Autoerotic practice does not have a significant impact on the development of depressive disorders. Instead, malakia was found to significantly reduce anxiety disorders in both sexually active and inactive young adults.

Hysteroscopy is considered the “gold standard” for endoscopic visualization of the uterine cavity. Various methods of anesthesia and analgesia for the hysteroscopy procedure are described, including general anesthesia, sedation, local anesthesia, oral analgesics, and inhalation anesthesia.The objective: to assess the use of inhalation sedation with methoxyflurane during office hysteroscopy.Materials and methods. A prospective clinical study was performed in 109 patients during 2022-2024 who admitted to the reproductive health center “Damia” for the treatment of infertility. During office hysteroscopy, all patients had examination of the uterine cavity and biopsy of the endometrium with forceps.I group included 57 women who were prescribed rectal ketoprofen 100 mg and per os paracetamol 500 mg as analgesia during hysteroscopy in outpatient settings; II group involved 52 patients who received methoxyflurane for analgesia through an individual device for inhalation use.The Spielberger–Hanin scale was used to determine the levels of personal and reactive anxiety; assessment of psychoemotional status for the study of depressive disorders was carried out using the Beck depression scale and determination of the effectiveness of analgesic therapy. Statistical processing of the research results was performed using the program “STATISTICA 10”.Results. The spread of chronic endometritis, which was diagnosed for the first time, was established in more than half of the patients (56.9%). When using methoxyflurane for analgesia by the inhalation method, the examined patients subjectively assessed the pain at a rather low level (0.14±0.05 points), and the intensity of pain in the I group was significantly higher (0.41±0.08 points; p=0.005).In the postoperative period in the patients of the I group there were significantly higher levels of depressive disorders (7.84±0.86 points vs 4.54±0.62 points in the II group; p=0.002), personal (27.12±2.32 points vs 19.64±2.04 points; p=0.017) and situational (21.92±2.14 vs 15.56±1.72 points; p=0.022) anxiety, a reduced level of mood and emotionality, which differed from the indicators of women of the II group. Among the most frequent complaints in the I group, dyspeptic disorders (31.6%) and pain in the epigastric area (21.05%) were observed. When using methoxyflurane, the most frequent complaints were headache and drowsiness (11.5% each).Conclusions. The use of inhalation anesthesia with methoxyflurane during hysteroscopy allows to reduce negative pain sensations, anxiety and can be the optimal method for anesthesia for its performance in outpatient conditions.

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is one of the neuroendocrine syndromes in women of reproductive age. In the pathogenesis of its development a great importance is paid to the hormonal disbalance, metabolic changes, overweight and obesity, diabetes mellitus, insulin resistance, genetic factors, etc. Very often, PCOS is accompanied by infertility, cardiovascular risks, diabetes mellitus.The article is devoted to a review of modern scientific literature about the last researches devoted to the mechanisms of metabolic disorders which are connected with insulin resistance, overweight and obesity, also, with psychological disturbance and stress. The article describes the specific of psychological conditions in PCOS patients. On the basis of the analyzed scientific publications the connection between hormonal disbalance, psychological disorders, overweight, obesity and lipidogram parameters is presented.Also, the researches about gut and vaginal microbiota are described in this paper. The last studies demonstrate the significant changes of human microbiome in the development and course of polycystic ovary syndrome. The article presents the concepts of the difference in the composition of the gut and vagina microbiota in women with this neuroendocrine syndrome.The pathogenetic mechanisms of the role of the microbiota in the processes of PCOS pathogenesis, namely, the regulation of the immune response and inflammation processes in this pathology, are described. It has been shown that in women with PCOS there are differences in the microflora composition of the intestines, manifested by a decreased concentration of Lactobacillus and the presence of a variety of other microorganisms compared to the healthy women.Thus, the main pathogenetic links of PCOS development are closely connected with each other. That is why multimodal approaches for study of PCOS and for management of the patients with PCOS are extremely important.

Published: May 2024

The objective: to conduct a prospective analysis of the impact of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and the level of endogenous melatonin in pregnant women with sleep disorders according to the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI).Materials and methods. A randomized controlled trial was conducted in a group of 110 pregnant women with diagnosed sleep disorders. Sleep disorders were determined in the II and III trimesters of pregnancy using the PSQI questionnaire with additional questions for pregnant women.Study participants were randomly assigned to a main group (n=49) and a comparison group (n=61). To improve sleep in the main group 10 sessions of CBT were conducted over 10 weeks, and in the comparison group sleep hygiene psychoeducation was performed as generally recommended measures. In all study participant, the level of endogenous melatonin was determined indirectly by its metabolite – 6-sulfatoxymelatonin (6-SOM) in the urine.The condition of pregnant women in both groups was assessed for the effect of CBT at the beginning and after the end of treatment (week 10) using the PSQI questionnaire with additional questions for pregnant women and the level of 6-COM in urine. The impact of sleep disorders and CBT on the frequency of perinatal outcomes was also evaluated.Results. Pregnant women with sleep disorders had a reduced level of 6-SOM in urine. After the CBT sessions in the main group the PSQI indicators significantly decreased, and the level of 6-COM in the urine increased dynamically compared to the comparison group (p<0.05), in which the results were not statistically different from the data before the start of therapy (p>0.05).Conclusions. Conducting CBT sessions reliably improves the quality of sleep in pregnant women, which is consistent with the normalization of the level of 6-SOM in urine, and reliably reduces the number of perinatal complications. The PSQI questionnaire and determination of the level of 6-COM in urine can be recommended as subjective and objective tools for assessing the quality of sleep in pregnant women.
Fibrocystic changes of the mammary glands: interpretation of the diagnosis, issues of diagnosis and treatment (Literature review)
Authors: Zavizion V.F.
Published: May 2024

In the Ukrainian-language medical literature there is very little correct information about benign changes in the mammary glands, publications mostly date from the eighties of the last century – the beginning of the current one. This article is a review of modern scientific domestic and foreign sources, which are devoted to the problem of benign changes of the mammary glands and recommendations for their treatment, which are based on the evidence base. The article analyzes 40 publications, mostly by foreign scientists.The prevalence of non-neoplastic changes in the mammary glands, which in most cases in Ukraine are interpreted as “mastopathy”, require a revision of the concept of the problem. Non-neoplastic changes in the mammary glands are most often represented by different variants of the so-called aberration of normal development and involution, which are not pathological, but, according to some signs, are those that are close to pathology, but are considered as a variant of the norm. The diagnosis should be changed to a specified variant of the aberration.The article raises problems about the difficulty of distinguishing between normal and pathological condition, considers the main positions of diagnosis and treatment of fibrocystic changes of the mammary glands, gynecological diseases that are accompanied by this pathology, and genetic prerequisites. Detailed characteristics of the main components of herbal preparations used for the treatment of mammary gland hyperplasia are also presented.Changing the interpretation of the term “fibrocystic mastopathy” to the term “fibro-cystic changes” helps to revise views on the need for therapeutic measures, since the diagnosis “mastopathy” automatically prompts therapy, while the term “changes” primarily indicates the need drawing attention to the problem, correction of lifestyle, nutrition, etc., dynamic supervision and only for diagnosing fibrocystic disease – resolving the issue of treatment.
Irony and its role in political communication (based on the British television series “Yes, Minister!”)
Authors: Kudryavtsev Andrey Aleksandrovich
Published: May 2024

The aim of the research is to identify the language phenomena of irony that contribute to the ridicule of the political communication of British officials in the satirical television series “Yes, Minister!”. The article analyzes irony in the monologues and dialogues of the characters in the British TV series “Yes, Minister!” and identifies the language phenomena with the help of which the satirical technique is achieved. It is shown that in political communication, irony with the use of language elements demonstrates a wide range of functions, for example, ridicule and criticism of political situations in which officials find themselves, as well as the transmission of acute social problems in a humorous manner. It is noted that irony, realizing these functions, attains a pragmatic goal – attracting the audience’s attention to current problems and shortcomings in the activities of politicians and the state apparatus. The scientific novelty of the research lies in the definition of the main lexical means that form irony and contribute to the achievement of a comic effect in political communication within the framework of a television context. The results obtained showed that antithesis, hyperbole, and metaphor most often form a comic effect in political discourse.
The dark side of genius: Researching Nabokov’s short stories in China
Authors: Tian Jianing
Published: May 2024

The purpose of this paper is to reveal the characteristics of reception, on the one hand, and philological study, on the other hand, of the short stories of V. V. Nabokov in China. The article discusses such aspects of the topic as research on the works of V. V. Nabokov in the world scientific community; the reasons for the low degree of study of the stories of V. V. Nabokov in Chinese philological science; the current state of scientific research in the field of the Russian writer’s work in China; the problems of studying Nabokov’s stories in China. The paper notes that over the centuries-old history of both translations and scientific research of his work, most Chinese scholars have focused precisely on the writer’s novels. Meanwhile, short stories are an important part of the author’s creative heritage. The scientific novelty of the research lies in the introduction of the works of Chinese literary scholars interested in the work of V. V. Nabokov into scientific circulation. As a result, it has been found that in recent years, as more and more Chinese scholars recognize the importance of Nabokov’s short stories, their scientific development in China has brought really fruitful results. Translations, articles, monographs, etc. continue to be published, thereby opening up a new research perspective for Chinese critics and literary scholars. At the same time, the process of studying Nabokov’s stories in China faces certain problems, which are language restrictions in translation, the lack of a holistic approach to considering the author’s work in the totality of his works.
Present tense forms in Russian and English as a means of expressing the simultaneity category
Authors: Antropova Anastasia Evgenievna
Published: May 2024

The aim of the study is to determine the features of expressing the category of simultaneity by present tense forms in English and Russian languages. The article identifies the verb forms in both languages that participate in expressing simultaneity, considers different types of simultaneity, and presents examples of their use. The scientific novelty of the study consists in identifying verbal means of expressing temporality on the example of the category of simultaneity. Isomorphism is manifested in the fact that both languages use the conjunction “when”, which explicitly expresses the meaning of simultaneity in polypredicative complexes. Allomorphism is manifested in the fact that the potential for expressing simultaneity by present tense forms is significantly higher in Russian than in English. The coincidence of the tense forms of the predicates leads to the expression of complete, unlimited simultaneity, and the use of different tense forms – to the implementation of partial simultaneity. The results obtained showed that the present tense in Russian and English can express both limited and unlimited simultaneity.
Linguistic representation of the category of opposition in folk and literary versions of the tale of Snow White
Authors: Solovyeva Nataliya Vladimirovna
Published: May 2024

The purpose of the study is to identify similarities and differences in the implementation of the category of opposition in folk and literary fairy-tale texts. The article compares two folk and three literary versions of the fairy tale, united by plot and compositional similarities. The scientific novelty lies in the fact that for the first time a comparative study of the corpus of oppositions in fairy-tale texts of different genesis is being conducted. The category of opposition is considered as a universal linguistic category that ensures the coherence and consistency of a fairy tale narrative. It is confirmed that antonymous units are represented at different levels of the language system and are not limited to conventional oppositions, forming contextual and potentially realizable oppositions. Generalized generic and particular category oppositions are identified, which are realized at different levels of language and located within a dicteme or hyperdicteme. As a result of the analysis, it was found that the linguistic implementation of oppositions and their contextual location are largely determined by the authorship of the text. Folk tales are characterized by common lexical, grammatical and syntactic oppositions located within one or more dictums, whereas the authors of literary versions widely use contextual and potential oppositions, preferring the contact arrangement of oppositional units.
Business Company Approaches to the Protection of Nature and Biodiversity
Authors: Jones Peter
Published: May 2024

The conservation and protection of nature is attracting increasing attention in the business world, and this reflects the growing explicit corporate recognition that many businesses depend on nature and natural resources. However, business company initiatives to protect nature and biodiversity have received very limited attention in the business and management literature, and this represents a gap in that literature. With this in mind, this paper looks to explore and illustrate, why, and how, a number of major companies have publicly claimed to be protecting nature and biodiversity. The paper identifies five themes, namely an ambitious approach, a business led rationale, forest regeneration, collaborative endeavours, and a focus on the supply chain, which collectively capture the companies’ approach to protecting nature and biodiversity. The author also argued that a number of wider issues were important in exploring the role of businesses in protecting and restoring nature and biodiversity.
