Introduction: Renal cortical thickness is an important parameter for many renal pathologies. Ultrasonography has been an efficient tool for the measurement of different renal parameters. The objective of this study was to determine the renal cortical thickness in healthy adults without any renal impairments and to correlate it with age, sex, height, weight, BMI and side of the body.

Materials and Methods: A total of 150 healthy adults with normal renal function were included in this study. A detailed clinical history of all the patients were taken. Basic investigations, clinical and ultrasonography examination were performed. Informed written consent and ethical approval were taken.

Results: The study included 150 participants (67 male & 83 female) with mean age of the participants 33.0±9.5 years. The mean renal cortical thickness was found to be 8.3±0.69mm. There was significant correlation between RCT and gender (p=0.013). However, no such correlation was observed between (renal cortical thickness) RCT and age, height, weight and BMI of the participants.

Conclusion: Ultrasonographic measurement of renal cortical thickness plays a vital role in identification of many renal diseases. Thus, the result of this study can be used for evaluation of renal cortical thickness to determine abnormal renal conditions.

Female Sexual Dysfunction: An Appraisal of Canadian Clinical Practice Guidelines Using the AGREE II Instrument
Authors: Tomalty Diane , Giovannetti Olivia , Sa Victoria , Adams Michael A.
Published: February 2023

Female sexual dysfunction (FSD) is a prevalent concern among Canadian women. While clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) are commonly relied upon to guide evidence-based decision making, the availability and quality of published Canadian CPGs for FSD is unknown. More broadly, there is also a paucity of literature, which has evaluated documents guiding Canadian CPG development. A search was conducted to identify Canadian documents describing CPG development processes. Eligible documents underwent full-text review to extract content pertaining to scope and target audience. A separate search was conducted to identify Canadian CPGs specific to FSD. Eligible documents underwent quality appraisal using the validated Appraisal of Guidelines for Research and Evaluation (AGREE) II instrument. Four documents outlining CPG development processes were identified. While there were similarities in the steps for CPG development, discrepancies in scope, target user, and affiliated development group across the Canadian methodologies were noted. One Canadian CPG specific to FSD was identified. Th is CPG scored highly in the domains of Scope and Purpose (79%), and Clarity of Presentation (86%), although it did not reach the same quality threshold for the remaining domains. Our results suggest the need for consistent guidelines that are implementable by Canadian CPG developers across the diverse clinical landscape, including women’s sexual health. Th is is the first study to evaluate the quality of CPGs for FSD using the AGREE II instrument. Our appraisal identifies areas of weakness that should be considered when updating this CPG in the future and in the development of new CPGs in this field.

Published: February 2023

LAY SUMMARY

Research has shown time and time again that war has an impact on the mental well-being of Veterans and their families. But what does that impact look like when a mission is characterized by severe violations of norms and values (in other words, moral injury)? In this study, family members of Dutch Veterans talked about the impact on their lives of a mission gone bad in the former Yugoslavia, 25 years after it happened. Although most of the families were doing well, all of the families felt left alone in taking care of their Veterans after they returned and in dealing with negative press coverage. For the well-being of all, they expressed the need for more appreciation for and acknowledgement of Veterans and their families.
Active Rehabilitation Following Acute Mild Traumatic Brain Injury: A Systematic Review
Authors: Coman Briar , Powell Dylan , Das Julia , Graham Lisa , Mason Rachel , Harrison Mark , Rae Glen , Vitorio Rodrigo , Godfrey Alan , Stuart Samuel
Published: February 2023

Purpose:

Following mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI), patients are often advised to restrict physical activity until full symptom resolution followed by gradual return to activity. However, extended rest periods may prolong recovery and contribute to persistent symptoms. Emerging evidence suggests early active rehabilitation that increases heart rate without exacerbating symptoms may improve mTBI patient recovery. This review aims to: (1) appraise evidence on active rehabilitation intervention for mTBI recovery within one-month of injury (i.e., exercise type, duration, intensity, etc.); and (2) recommend evidence-based rehabilitation protocols.

Method:

Pubmed, CINAHL, PsychARTICLES, SportDISCUS, and AMED databases were searched using key terms “mild Traumatic Brain Injury”, “Rehabilitation”, “Acute”, and their synonyms. Evidence was appraised using Cochrane RoB-2 and ROBINS-I.

Results:

434 citations were initially identified with seven papers systematically reviewed. Within the reviewed articles, only three were randomized controlled trials with low risk of bias, and four were non-randomized trials with low to moderate risk of bias. Findings highlighted that a range of active rehabilitation protocols were used with different exercise modalities (primarily treadmills and static cycling), durations (9–20 min, or until symptomatic, for 30–50 days or symptoms resolved), and intensities (low, moderate or high). Active rehabilitation did not cause any serious adverse events (i.e., death, hospitalisation etc.), and six studies reported that it did not exacerbate mTBI symptoms in any participants (with one participant having symptom worsening in one study). Overall, the majority of reviewed studies ( n = 4) showed that active rehabilitation decreased time to mTBI symptom resolution compared to controls (strict rest/stretching exercises).

Conclusions:

Individualized active rehabilitation prescribed within one-month post-mTBI appears to be safe and effective at decreasing recovery time to symptom resolution in mTBI. However, there is a lack of consensus regarding specific intervention protocols that needs to be addressed before adoption within clinical practice.
The First Non-Muslim in Makkah and Madinah (Orang Bukan Islam Pertama di Makkah dan Madinah)
Authors: Omer Spahic
Published: February 2023

This article is about Ludovico di Varthema who was the first European non-Muslim to visit Makkah and Madinah and to record his journeys as well as impressions. He became famous for three reasons. First, he joined the exclusive club of avant-garde European explorers and discoverers. Second, he was a history-maker, in that he accomplished things no other non-Muslim had ever done before. And third, he furnished the craving 16th-century European audience with an additional and priceless reference on Islam, Muslims and Islamic culture, due to which it has been considered a “literary wonder” despite its many deficiencies and errors. The article aims to set the instance of Ludovico di Varthema against the background of the medieval East-West interactions. The article’s research methodology is a blend of descriptive, thematic and content analysis. The article concludes that the case of Ludovico di Varthema was an archetype. It shows how ignorant about, and prejudiced against, Islam and Muslims the 16th-century Europe was. The man was a product of a circumstance and a system of thought. He experienced and chronicled his voyages not just in his personal, but also in his culture’s intellectual and psychological mould.
Keywords: Ludovico di Varthema; Makkah; Madinah; Hajj.              
Abstrak
Artikel ini adalah mengenai Ludovico di Varthema yang merupakan bangsa Eropah bukan Islam pertama yang melawat Makkah dan Madinah dan mencipta rekod perjalanan serta kesannya. Beliau menjadi terkenal kerana tiga sebab. Pertama, beliau menyertai kelab eksklusif penjelajah dan peneroka Eropah avant-garde. Kedua, dia adalah seorang pencipta sejarah  kerana beliau melakukan perkara yang tidak pernah dilakukan oleh orang bukan Islam sebelum ini. Ketiga, beliau menjadi rujukan tambahan dan tidak ternilai kepada warga Eropah abad ke-16 mengenai Islam, orang Islam dan kebudayaan Islam yang dianggap sebagai suatu "keajaiban kesusasteraan" walaupun terdapat banyak kesilapan dan kekurangannya. Artikel ini bertujuan untuk menjadikankan contoh Ludovico di Varthema yang berlatar belakang antara pertembungan Timur-Barat Zaman Pertengahan. Metodologi kajian artikel ini adalah gabungan analisis deskriptif, thematik dan analisis kandungan. Artikel itu menyimpulkan bahawa kes Ludovico di Varthema adalah sebagai satu contoh tipikal. Hal ini menunjukkan betapa jahilnya dan berprasangka buruk terhadap Islam dan umat Islam di Eropah abad ke-16. Lelaki itu adalah hasil daripada keadaan dan sistem pemikiran. Beliau mengalami dan mencatat pelayarannya itu bukan sahaja untuk peribadinya, tetapi juga dalam acuan intelektual dan psikologi budayanya.

Published: February 2023

In the article the research and generalization of ways of the organization of production processes with a variable structure of the equipment of cars for forestry works is carried out. Planning a computational experiment for optimal organization of production processes with variable equipment. For production processes with variable composition of equipment for forestry machinery, field experiments often become irrational or impossible due to the complexity of the organization, high costs, limited resources, so there is a replacement by computational methods, which are subject to mathematical process models. To date, a large number of methods of mathematical modeling, experiment planning, processing of results, optimization have been developed. Their diversity is due to the fact that to solve the production problems of different classes requires consideration of different nuances, and therefore it is necessary to develop methods that would have sufficient versatility. The decision of practical problems by means of the device of modeling, planning of experiment can be complicated by infringement of conditions of applicability of methods, complexity of their realization. Thus, the relevance of this study in the article is due to the need to improve methods of planning and processing the results of computer experiments, their adaptation to the specifics of production processes of machines for forestry work. The efficiency of production processes can be achieved with the correct assembly of sets of machines by type, number and appropriate organization of work.

The current study aims to examine the exponential rate of the spread of COVID-19 by employing a system dynamic model. The outbreak of COVID-19 was first evidenced on Feb 26, 2020 in Pakistan. The local bodies and law enforcing agencies took the initial preventive measures to restrict COVID-19 to a particular locality but all in vain. A large number of people were infected by this virus which increased the death rate countrywide. The numbers of infected people were alarming and a need was felt to develop the model to calculate the existing reproduction number and transmission rate and highlight its varied values in the coming days. People-friendly measures and government-based policies must be explored to fight against this deadly disease. This paper aims to develop an epidemic model using the system dynamic framework of simulation software STELLA. Additionally, the current study’s purpose is to experiment with the system dynamic model to replicate the progression of the communicable disease and probe multiple combinations of people-based and government-based measures to reduce the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic. These containment measures are of two types; people-based measures and government-based measures which directly affect the reproduction number and infection growth rate of the mitigating circumstances due to COVID-19. Combined efforts of the public and government can combat this global pandemic. The reduced number of reproduction number/recurring cases and infection growth rate are the key metrics to judge and evaluate the effectiveness of containment/ control measures. Therefore, this research points to a more holistic combination of public and government-oriented measures that play a vital role in reducing the increasing infection rate of COVID-19. Simulation results were traced to replicate the real-life settings against four combinations of containmentmeasures in tabular form and graphical form.
More Human Than All Too Human: Challenges in Machine Ethics for Humanity Becoming a Spacefaring Civilization
Authors: Du Plessis Guy
Published: February 2023

It is indubitable that machines with artificial intelligence (AI) will be an essential component in humans’ quest to become a spacefaring civilization. Most would agree that long-distance space travel and the colonization of Mars will not be possible without adequately developed AI. Machines with AI have a normative function, but some argue that it can also be evaluated from the perspective of ethical norms. This essay is based on the assumption that machine ethics is an essential philosophical perspective in realizing the aim of humanity becoming a spacefaring civilization. In this essay, I explore two questions in the field of machine ethics, that I believe to be relevant to the role AI will play in long-distance space travel. The first is, should moral theory be extended to include machines with AI, and second, can machines be fully ethical agents? In this essay, I define AI and then discuss the difference between implicit, explicit and full ethical agents in relation to machines with AI. I then present the argument that the inclusion of moral theory is essential in the development of machines with AI. Without an adequate inclusion of moral theory in the design of AI it may pose an existential threat to humanity, especially in the development of super-intelligent machines. I also highlight that conceptual clarity is essential in the field of machine ethics and the choice of the conceptual foundation that informs AI research and development has ethical implications, especially in the case of super-intelligent machines. This essay is an exploratory and speculative philosophical analysis of certain aspects of machine ethics relevant to long-distance space travel and does not attempt to provide definitive answers to the questions posed in the essay, but instead aims to bring attention to what I deem important considerations.
The Relativism in Language Study: Face Threatening Acts and Politeness Found in Kediri
Authors: Muhyidin Mohammad
Published: February 2023

The rising or decreasing level of politeness impacts the intensity of human behavior. By using the theory of Brown and Levinson's model of politeness and civility theoretical model of Robin Lakoff, this paper aims to describe the Face Threatening Acts performed in public notices in Kediri. This study used the qualitative method because it focuses more on the analysis of written data rather than numbers. This study looks into public notices written by people in public places. The writer uses the theory of Relativism and politeness. The findings show that using more power, being forced, and playing with an adversary can create discomfort. An example can be seen from the public notice “Angel Ngeyel “JOTOS” (English translation: Those who are disobedient will get punched). People who read this notice will feel uncomfortable and it may potentially influence the readers to think and act rudely. It affects people's behavior. Another notice reads “Mlebu kene SETOR NYOWO”, which is about “Zona Rawan Pukul”. This means that people must not enter the village because of the pandemic Covid 19. If they insist to enter the village, they will die or lose their lives. Based on the theory of Robin Lakoff, the notice tends to have declined politeness. This phenomenon is a result of unbridled democracy so everyone feels entitled to talk about anything, the higher frequencies that do not use polite language in the mass media and electronic, and depletion of mutual respect between people. As a result, the behavior of this nation into insolent, and destructive, and the hostility between people are increasingly visible and tend to be light publicly.
TEACHERS’ CREATIVITY TO HELP STUDENTS IN ACHIEVING DAILY ENGLISH CONVERSATION GOAL OF D-BEATS (DYNAMIC – BOARDING ENGLISH ARABIC TAHFIDZ SCHOOL)

D-BEATS is a boarding school which activity is learning tahfidz and the language use either English or Arabic in daily conversation. English use is primary language in this research. In boarding school exists a class of morning conversation which class is giving vocabularies. The English teachers teach English in morning conversation by questioning and role-play. The teachers use those ways in order to make the students usual to make question and appear new vocabularies in any activity. In process of daily conversation, the students face the challenges such forget and limit the vocabulary, a chance to speak Indonesian if out of monitoring, and the basic challenge is when another person speaks Indonesian other person will respond in Indonesian too. English teacher helps the students to speak English in daily activity by activating the language department. It works like each student becomes a spiyer to spy about the use of English in whole daily activity. For whomever who breaks the language they will be noted by spiyer and reported to the language department to get punishment. The environment in boarding of D-BEATS like other teachers who live in boarding like Tahfidz teacher, Arabic teacher, and canteen keeper, they also try to service the students with English. The learners’ reflection after getting the teachers’ creativity shows that the students’ effort to speak English as often in daily conversation, speak English every day, every time, except free day language, feel free to speak English.

This study describes the best hybrid energy system in terms of emissions, cost, and other factors. All the computations performed by HOMER Pro. A standalone hybrid power system model is suggested in this study. The suggested concept combines diesel generation with PV and Wind energy sources. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) provided the data for simulation in HOMER to determine system performance. To reduce dependency on either conventional energy or renewable energy sources, a hybrid renewable energy system may be employed. Studies have shown that the suggested approach and the optimization technique for sizing standalone hybrid power systems both settle really well. The study aim is to optimize the size and expense of a renewable energy system at the chosen location in order to satisfy the electrical demand. The evaluation of the hybrid systems is based on the net present cost (NPC), levelized cost of energy (COE), initial cost, operating cost, and renewable fraction. The results support the use of RES at the chosen location, with the PV-Wind-Diesel generator system emerging as the most cost-effective RES with a COE of 0.2424 $/kWh. The outcomes are in favor of using a hybrid renewable system.
