Benign in radiology bombshell in cytology
Authors: Jeyaraman Selvarani
Published: February 2023

Smooth muscle tumor of uncertain malignant potential is a surprise post-operative histopathological finding after myomectomy or hysterectomy. These are aligned between benign and malignant which shares but does not fulfil the complete diagnostic criteria of leiomyosarcoma. Preoperative diagnosis by clinical or radiological examination is uncertain and the diagnosis is only by histopathology. Among women undergoing myomectomy or hysterectomy for a presumed diagnosis of leiomyoma, 0.01% receive a diagnosis of STUMP. Once diagnosed as STUMP, the gold standard treatment option is surgical removal of uterus. As there are no strict accurate protocols for the management of STUMP, the treatment choices should be based on the age of the patient, status and desire to preserve fertility, location of the tumor, metastases, recurrences and pathologic types. Here with we are presenting a case of nulligravida admitted for abnormal uterine bleeding with severe anaemia diagnosed as STUMP on histopathological examination, managed by myomectomy followed by regular follow up for the sake of fertility status. Post operative regular clinical and radiological follow up is mandatory for early pick up of recurrence or metastases.

Accessory fallopian tube –A rare anomaly
Authors: Pandya Manish R , Gorvadiya Ghanshyam K , Modesara Jeel A
Published: February 2023

Accessory fallopian tube is a rare, congenital and developmental mullerian duct anomaly. The documented incidence is around 6-10% in women seeking for infertility treatment. We observed accessory fallopian tube in a patient during routine checking of operative field, ovaries and fallopian tube during caesarean section. Accessory fallopian tube is congenital anomaly which is attached with ampullary part of main fallopian tube. Accessory fallopian tube is common site for pyosalpinx, hydrosalpinx, cystic swelling and torsion which can lead to infertility and other complications. The ovum released by ovary may also captured by accessory fallopian tube which can lead to infertility or ectopic pregnancy. During the embryological development of female urogenital system, development of fallopian tube occurs from cranial un fused portion of mullerian ducts. This duct is derived from mesoderm, the middle layer of germ cell layers in the embryo. Bifurcation of cranial end of mullerian duct results in accessory fallopian tube.
Rudimentary horn pregnancy

Published: February 2023

Rudimentary horn is an anatomic variant of unicornuate uterus which is a mullerian duct anomaly resulting from the incomplete fusion of the ducts. The prevalence of congenital uterine malformations is about 3.2%Pregnancy in the rudimentary horn is an extremely rare condition occurring in 1 in 76,000 to 1 in 1,40,000 pregnancies. Unicornuate uterus with rudimentary horn maybe associated with gynecological and obstetric complications like infertility, endometriosis, hematometra, abortions and preterm deliveries. Despite advances in ultrasound and other diagnostic modalities, prenatal diagnosis remains elusive, with confirmatory diagnosis being laparotomy.
Case series of gestational thrombocytopenia
Authors: Raman Nandhini , Menon Maya
Published: February 2023

The antepartum diagnosis of maternal thrombocytopenia has become more common because platelet counts are now routinely obtained as a part of prenatal screening. We are reporting three cases of gestational thrombocytopenia, diagnosed clinically, admitted, evaluated and managed. Two cases reverted back to their normal status soon after delivery. Case one who presented as gestational thrombocytopenia was diagnosed as Immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) and is on treatment and platelet monitoring even after delivery. Commonest platelet deficiency seen in obstetrics is Gestational thrombocytopenia which is 80%, but other underlying causes must be considered as well. A thorough history and physical examination rules out most causes. There is a positive correlation between thrombocytopenia with adverse fetomaternal outcome. Hence serial platelet monitoting should be done.
Atribuição de autoria em discussão: o caso dos títulos dos capítulos da Peregrinação
Authors: Nardelli Cambraia César , Landulfo Teixeira Paradela Cunha Evandro
Published: February 2023

Este estudo teve como objetivo discutir a atribuição de autoria dos títulos dos capítulos da obra Peregrinação, de Fernão Mendes Pinto. Do ponto de vista teórico, adotou-se a concepção de autoria como uma série funções desempenhadas durante a criação da obra, com base em Love (2002). Do ponto de vista metodológico, fez-se comparação entre quatro corpora (títulos dos capítulos da Peregrinação, textos dos capítulos da Peregrinação, cartas e informação em língua portuguesa de Fernão Mendes Pinto e duas obras de Francisco de Andrade). Testou-se a hipótese de que Francisco de Andrade foi o autor dos títulos dos capítulos da Peregrinação, com base em Maldonado (1620). Foram encontradas evidências internas de que Pinto redigiu títulos, mas também se identificaram evidências internas da presença de Andrade nos referidos títulos. A interpretação final proposta para o caso é a de que o próprio Fernão Mendes Pinto redigiu e inseriu títulos na sua obra, mas apenas após ter terminado o texto dela, e Andrade realmente fez intervenções nos títulos.
“Se Fosse Fácil, Todo Mundo Fazia”: problemas de descrição e ensino no emprego de modos e tempos verbais
Authors: Evaristo Jefferson
Published: February 2023

Tradicionalmente, referenciais teóricos como a Nomenclatura Gramatical Brasileira (NGB), gramáticas e/ou livros didáticos figuram como materiais de autoridade em relação à descrição e ao ensino de língua portuguesa. Tidos como objetos de verdades linguísticas, as obras são de amplo uso em todos os segmentos didáticos. Em relação à descrição dos modos e tempos verbais, apesar de algumas poucas exceções – como em Bechara (2009) –, apresentam-se a alunos e professores explicações que tendem à unanimidade, com pouco espaço – ou nenhum, no caso da NGB – para questionamentos e críticas. Nesse contexto, expressões de uso popular como “se fosse fácil, todo mundo fazia” emergem como construções que colocam o professor e o ensino em situações problemáticas. Nosso texto tem por objetivo apresentar um breve panorama da descrição dos modos e tempos verbais, mostrando como suas imprecisões têm efeito imediato no ensino da língua portuguesa. Ao fim, propusemos alguns possíveis caminhos didáticos que o professor pode trilhar nesses casos.
Usos e funções de mesmo no português amazonense e sua contribuição para a construção de significados
Authors: Abraçado Jussara , Da Silva Nascimento Cavalcante Marcilene
Published: February 2023

Este artigo tem como proposta analisar usos e funções de ‘mesmo’ em amostras orais e escritas do português amazonense, almejando responder as seguintes perguntas: quais são os usos de ‘mesmo’ no português amazonense? Algum desses usos pode ser considerado característico dos amazonenses? Qual a contribuição de ‘mesmo’ para a construção do significado das predicações em que figura? Para tanto, em termos teóricos, fundamenta-se na Gramática Cognitiva e, no que diz respeito aos procedimentos de coleta e análise dos dados, respalda-se em contribuições da Sociolinguística variacionista. Os resultados encontrados em análises quantitativa e qualitativa dos dados demonstram que no português amazonense: (i) ‘mesmo’ é empregado como pronome demonstrativo (indicando semelhança/igualdade) e anafórico (em referência nominal), como advérbio (reforçando inclusão, exclusão e confirmação), como adjetivo (reforçando identidade), e como conjunção concessiva (indicando concessão); (ii) o uso mais característico de ‘mesmo’ é o de reforçador de confirmação; (iii) ‘mesmo’ utilizado como reforçador contribui para a construção de significados ao pôr em proeminência uma predicação nominal, uma predicação relacional de processo ou uma predicação relacional atemporal.
“O que é Ser Jovem até o Fim”: uma análise discursiva
Authors: Freitas Silvane Aparecida de , Ferreira da Silva Alves dos Santos Hellen
Published: February 2023

Tivemos como objetivo, neste artigo, analisar uma reportagem da Revista Veja, que investiga a questão da velhice. Para isso, utilizamo-nos dos pressupostos teóricos da Análise do Discurso de orientação francesa (AD), com o fito de analisar os possíveis sentidos presentes nos discursos que a imprensa veicula sobre a velhice na sociedade contemporânea. Assim, pudemos verificar que há uma representação de que só é velho quem quer. Na reportagem analisada, ao mesmo tempo em que se procura promover o idoso ideal, que se dispõe a ter uma vida ativa, acaba, também, por divulgar um sujeito marginalizado, inativo, ocioso, sem vez e voz.
El aporte de Félix F. Outes al estudio de las lenguas fuegopatagónicas
Authors: Domínguez Luisa
Published: February 2023

Félix Faustino Outes (1878-1939) fue un especialista en ciencias antropológicas que, además de indagar en distintas temáticas sobre arqueología y geografía, también se encargó del estudio de las lenguas indígenas del actual territorio argentino. Como continuación de un trabajo previo (DOMÍNGUEZ, L. 2022), en esta ocasión nos proponemos examinar, desde la perspectiva de la historiografía lingüística, los aportes que realizó al estudio de las lenguas indígenas fuegopatagónicas, a lo que sumaremos un trabajo también de su autoría sobre las lenguas rioplatenses. La totalidad de estas contribuciones partieron de la base de fuentes documentales debidas a hallazgos ocasionales o a sus propios contactos académicos. La primera serie que analizaremos consiste en trabajos basados en el descubrimiento, en 1910, de un conjunto de códices en el Museo Británico que le permitieron rectificar hipótesis clasificatorias de lenguas rioplatenses y patagónicas. La segunda serie parte de un grupo de materiales que le fueron cedidos por un viajero suizo, Georges Claraz, en la década del 20, entre los que se destacan un vocabulario yagan y uno “pehuenche”.

O livro como autoridade linguística: o papel dos editores e preparadores da Companhia das Letras no emprego de variantes do português brasileiro
Authors: Salla Thiago Mio , Ritto Renato Augusto
Published: February 2023

O trabalho de edição de livros, em regra, privilegia o emprego de variantes de prestígio e a correção das informações transmitidas. Partindo da ideia de que revisores e preparadores, com vistas a aprimorar as obras nas quais trabalham, agem diretamente sobre o conteúdo gramatical e textual nelas contido, este artigo objetiva entender como os profissionais de texto da Companhia das Letras se pautam, eventualmente, pelas noções de sistema, norma e variante em sua práxis, ainda que não tenham plena consciência da especificidade desses conceitos oriundos sobretudo do âmbito da sociolinguística. Para tanto, utilizando-se de um questionário respondido por desde a responsável pelo departamento de editoria de texto da empresa até freelancers, a proposta foi mapear e discutir os perfis, visões a respeito da língua e as escolhas feitas por editores e preparadores considerando-se possíveis empregos de variantes do português brasileiro.

Published: February 2023

One of the Indonesian Government's efforts to meet the target of 23% fulfillment of new and renewable energy by 2030 is to provide solar electricity through government assistance. The priority of solar energy projects by the government, one of which is East Nusa Tenggara. The area is area that has a pretty good potential for solar energy. In addition, the site has a low level of access to electricity in Indonesia. In 2007, solar energy projects through a microgrid system were started and continued with a home system. However, the receiving group is a group that lacks knowledge of new renewable energy and is also economically vulnerable. This research was conducted to identify the level of understanding, awareness, and acceptance of solar energy users, which generally demands good knowledge and economic strength. Questionnaires containing demographic, attention, and approval information to utilize solar PV technology were distributed to 20 selected respondents from Maghilewa, Jere, Watu, and Belaraghi in Ngada, East Nusa Tenggara. The study revealed that although 90% of respondents had no basic knowledge of science, their level of awareness of solar energy technology and its use was at an average score. However, respondents showed a high level of technology acceptance because of the hope for social and economic improvement. In addition, the study also found that respondents in 4 kampongs were deeply involved in the changes that new technology products brought to society. The respondent gives total commitment to using and maintaining solar power.

Published: February 2023

Objectives: Our aim in this study is to investigate the effect of fibrosis at diagnosis on treatment and survival in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL).
Methods: This study is retrospective. We evaluated the relationship between patients' age, white blood cell count at diagnosis, morphological blast percentage and flow cytometric blast percentage at diagnosis, day 15th and day 33th, absolute blast count in peripheral smear on day 8th, and the degree of fibrosis in bone marrow biopsy at diagnosis in 36 pediatric patients. The fibrosis degree in biopsy on the thirty-third day after induction therapy was measured.
Results: Twenty-eight (77.8%) cases were diagnosed B-ALL and 8 T-ALL (22.2%). There was no statistically significant difference between the groups with and without fibrosis in terms of any parameter measured at the time of diagnosis, 8th day, 15th day, and 33th day. No significant difference was found between the groups according to overall survival (OS): the mean OS was 50.22 ± 5.44 months in the fibrosis group and 49.70 ± 3.96 months in the non-fibrosis group (p = 0.557).
Conclusions: There is a high detection rate of bone marrow fibrosis in ALL pediatric cases at the time of diagnosis. Nevertheless, fibrosis does not affect survival.

Amaç: Pediyatrik Yoğun Bakım Ünitesinde yatan bedensel hastalığı olan çocuklarda davranışsal-duygusal psikopatolojiler sıklıkla gelişmektedir. Fiziksel hastalığa eşlik eden bu ruhsal durumlar tedaviyi uyumu bozarak olumsuz sonuçlara yol açabilmektedir. Bu çalışmada çocuk yoğun bakım ünitemizde kritik hastalık nedeniyle izlenen hastalar için son 3 yıl içinde istenen çocuk psikiyatri konsultasyonlarının değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır

Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışmamızda 2019-2022 yılları arasında Dr. Behçet Uz Çocuk Hastanesi Çocuk Yoğun Bakım ünitesinde izlenen çocuk psikiyatrisi konsültasyonu istenen hastaların verileri geriye dönük olarak taranmıştır. Hastaların demografik özellikleri, bedensel hastalık tanıları, konsültasyonların istenme nedenleri, konsültasyon sonucunda saptanan psikiyatrik tanılar ve bunun sonucunda tedavi uygulanıp uygulanmadığı, verilen bir tedavi olması durumunda hangi medikal tedavilerin tercih edildiği, psikiyatrik tedavi ve izlem sürecine ilişkin veriler kaydedilmiştir

Bulgular: Üç yıllık sürede çocuk yoğun bakımda izlenen çocukların 118’i (%4,9) için psikiyatri konsültasyonu istenmiştir. Konsültasyon istenenlerin çoğu kızdır (%61,9) ve 12 yaş veya üzeri yaşta % 71,4 hasta bulunmaktadır. En sık konsültasyon isteme nedeni özkıyım girişimleri (%33,1) ve depresif görünüm (%25,5) olarak saptanmış olup en sık konulan tanı majör depresif bozukluk ve uyum bozukluğudur. Olguların %31’inde psikotrop ilaç başlanmış olup erkekler ve kızlar arasında anlamlı fark saptanmamıştır.

Sonuç:

Bu çalışma bedensel hastalığı olan kritik çocuk yoğun bakım hastalarında ruhsal hastalıkların sık görülmesine rağmen psikiyatri konsültasyonu istenme oranlarının düşük olduğunu saptamıştır. Bu durum yoğun bakım hekimlerinin belirtileri anlama ve değerlendirme konusunda hastaların bilinç durumları ve primer hastalıkları nedeniyle güçlükler yaşadığına işaret etmektedir. Bu nedenle çocuk psikiyatrisi ile birlikte multidisipliner bir yaklaşım izlemeleri ve işbirliği içinde olmaları hastanın tedaviye uyumunu arttırarak yatış sürelerini kısaltacaktır.
COMPARISON OF PREOPERATIVE BOWEL PREPARATION MODELS OF PATIENTS WHO UNDERWENT SURGERY FOR COLORECTAL CANCER
Authors: KARTAL Bahadır , BOZKURT Mehmet Abdussamet , SEYHUN Cemal
Published: February 2023

Background

The most prevalent cancer in society is colorectal cancer (CRC). Studies aiming to lower surgical morbidity and mortality have found a significant contribution from preoperative bowel preparation. Models for bowel preparation included mechanical cleaning, the use of antibiotics, and control groups. We compared preoperative bowel preparation for elective colorectal cancer and evaluated its effects in this study.

Material and Methods

Preoperative bowel preparation model was used to prospectively split 144 patients (n=144) with colorectal cancer into four groups. Patients in the first group (Group I) underwent mechanical bowel preparation (MBP), followed by oral antibiotic therapy (OAB) and MBP in the second group (Group II), intravenous antibiotic therapy (IVAB), MBP, and OAB in the third group (Group III), and no bowel preparation in the fourth group (Group IV). Demographic information, anastomotic leakage, surgical site infection, intraabdominal abscess, postoperative ileus, and death were compared between patients.

Results

Groups I, II, III, and IV of the study each had 35 patients, 38 patients, 35 patients, and 36 patients, respectively. There was no statistically significant difference between the four groups when the groups were evaluated by age, gender, and ASA (American Society of Anesthesiologists) score (p> 0.05). There were significant differences between surgical site infection (SSI), intraabdominal abscess, and anastomosis leaking (p0.05). Mortality and postoperative ileus did not differ significantly (p > 0.05).

Conclusion

We consider that the bowel preparation approach of mechanical colon cleansing and antibiotic administration is appropriate for patients who have had surgery owing to elective CRC.
Perivascular Administration of Hyaluran-Cyanoacrylate Complex Gel for Deep Venous Reflux
Authors: RODOPLU Orhan
Published: February 2023

Objective: Deep venous insufficiency is an important health issue affecting the population worldwide. In this study we aimed to assess the effectiveness and safety of a novel antireflux treatment procedure in patients with primary deep vein insufficiency.

Methods: Between October 2016 and December 2018, 81 valvular leak operations consisting of perivenous hard gel injection were performed in 81 patients with primary deep venous insufficiency. The clinical symptoms of the patients were between C3-C6 according to the CEAP clinical classification. Venous insufficiency associated with only one deep venous valve was verified with Doppler ultrasonography. Patients were assessed with physical and ultrasound examination on the follow-up visits, which were achieved on the third day and at the first, sixth, and twelfth months. The nonexistence of reflux in the treated valve level was defined as the success of the procedure. Any reflux, which lasted 0.5 seconds or more, was regarded as a lack of success.

Results: The ages of the patients ranged between 32 and 78. All the patients had deep venous insufficiency. The follow-up could be achieved in all the patients. The mean volume of the gel administered was 2.4±0.9 ml. The mean procedure duration was 22.3±8.9 (range 14–42) minutes. The procedures could be performed successfully in all of the patients confirmed perioperatively and on the third day of follow-up with the elimination of reflux. The sixth-month follow-up, with the same vein diameter after the treatment without any reflux, revealed the same findings as to the first-month follow-up. The treatment was not associated with any significant morbidity or mortality. The VCSS decreased significantly when preprocedural and twelfth-month VCSS were compared as 21.8 ± 4.8 and 3.8±0.7, respectively (p

Published: February 2023

Background: Pekin ducks are broadly raised over the world, particularly in Asia continent, moreover, they are famous for the delightful taste of Beijing roast duck around the world. The aim of this study was to explore the effect of beak color on growth performance, carcass traits and sexual dimorphism of Pekin ducks. Methods: A total of 250 one-day-old Pekin ducks were separated according to beak color into two groups, yellow beak (YB) and blue beak (BB). Body weight and body weight gain were recorded from the first week to the marketing age (6 wks). Carcass traits were taken at the marketing age (20 ducks /each phenotype). Sexual dimorphism was calculated for live body weight and carcass traits at marketing age. Result: show that YB ducks have significantly heavier body weight at 1 and 5 wks of age compared to BB, however the body weight of BB ducks was higher at 3 and 4 wks of age. At marketing age, the differences in body weight between two phenotypes were not significant. Generally, BB ducks have significantly higher body weight gain and growth rate compared to YB ducks. The mortality and defect ratio were affecting beak color, the blue beak ducks recorded higher relative mortality rate and lower defect ratio compared to yellow beak ducks. There was no effect of beak color on carcass traits. However, the sexual dimorphism was significantly higher for the YB ducks for most traits compared to BB. In conclusion, we concluded has a significant effect beak color on growth performance and sexual dimorphism of Pekin ducks.
Identification with Game Characters: Theoretical Explanations, Predictors, and Psychological Outcomes
Authors: İSKENDER Özlem
Published: February 2023

This review investigates theoretical explanations, predictors, and psychological outcomes of identification with game characters. Theoretical explanations depended on Cohen’s conceptualization of identification with media characters, wishful identification, similarity identification, embodied presence concepts, self-perception, self-discrepancy, and social identity theories. Predictors included customizability, how the character is perceived (ideal, attractive, similar, real), narrative, immersion, presence, age, time spent playing/playing history, player’s psychological characteristics, and perceived performance. Psychological outcomes included enjoyment, flow experience, addiction, problematic gaming, playing motivations, self-efficacy, competence, short-term outcomes (change in aggression, empathy), intention to continue playing, game-related spending, social identification, and in-group bias. The self-discrepancy perspective provides the most prevalent explanation, which proposes that game characters are closer to players’ ideal selves, and identification with the game character reduces their self-discrepancies. However, the social identity perspective offers more overarching explanations discussing identification with game-related groups (groups created within the game and game community) and the game character together, thus pointing to a bigger picture where players develop social identities through interaction with game-related groups. Therefore, unlike other explanations discussing game character identification as a temporary experience, the social identity perspective indicates it may be a lasting experience. Regarding predictors, only two were game-related (customizability, narrative), while most were player-related (e.g., age, time spent playing, player’s psychological characteristics), which might show that player characteristics deserve more attention than the game itself to understand the identification process. Concerning psychological outcomes, while two were positive (enjoyment, flow experience) and two were negative (addiction, problematic gaming), most had various aftermaths, such as a short-term outcome of an increase in aggression or empathy.

Authors: Jin Wenjie , Fang Mike , Sayin Ismail , Smith Carson , Hunter Jeffrey , Richardson Brian , Golden Jackelyn , Haley Christopher , Schmader Kenneth , Betts Michael , Cameron Cheryl , Tyring Stephen , Cameron Mark , Canaday David
Published: February 2023

Background: CD4+ T cells are a critical component of effective immune responses to varicella zoster virus (VZV), but their functional properties during the reactivation acute vs latent phase of infection remain poorly defined.
Methods: Here we assessed the functional and transcriptomic properties of peripheral blood CD4+ T cells in persons with acute herpes zoster (HZ) compared to those with a prior history of HZ infection using multicolor flow cytometry and RNA sequencing. 
Results: We found significant differences between the polyfunctionality of VZV-specific total memory, effector memory, and central memory CD4+ T cells in acute vs prior HZ. VZV-specific CD4+ memory T-cell responses in acute HZ reactivation had higher frequencies of IFN-γ and IL-2 producing cells compared to those with prior HZ. In addition, cytotoxic markers were higher in VZV-specific CD4+ T cells than non-VZV-specific cells. Transcriptomic analysis of ex vivo total memory CD4+ T cells from these individuals showed differential regulation of T-cell survival and differentiation pathways, including TCR, cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL), T helper, inflammation, and MTOR signaling pathways. These gene signatures correlated with the frequency of IFN-γ and IL-2 producing cells responding to VZV. 
Conclusions: In summary, VZV-specific CD4+ T cells from acute HZ individuals had unique functional and transcriptomic features, and VZV-specific CD4+ T cells as a group had a higher expression of cytotoxic molecules including Perforin, Granzyme-B, and CD107a.

ABSTRAKSeiring berkembangnya permasalah-permasalahan yang terjadi di tengah masyarakat, pembaruan hukum diperlukan untuk menjawab persoalan-persoalan di masa kini yang sebelumnya belum pernah terjadi di masa lalu, salah satunya hukum keluarga bidang kewarisan. Persoalan waris mewaris adalah persoalan yang pasti terjadi dan akan dialami oleh manusia, sehingga hukum waris sebagai sarana bagi penyelesaian waris selalu menarik. Permasalahan yang fenomenal dalam hukum keluarga bidang kewarisan yaitu tentang status cucu sebagai ahli waris pengganti. Padahal dahulu, cucu tidak dapat menggantikan posisi ayahnya untuk menerima harta warisan kakeknya karena terhalang oleh pamannya. Namun konsep ini dirasa tidak adil bagi si cucu, sehingga tercetuslah konsep wasiat wajibah yang dipelopori oleh negara Mesir, yang kemudian konsep tersebut banyak yang mengadopsinya termasuk Indonesia, yang disebut dengan istilah ahli waris pengganti. Sistematika penulisan paper ini yaitu diawali dengan pendahuluan yang berisi alasan akademik atau latar belakang penulisan artikel ini. Kemudian dilanjutkan pemaparan pembahasan tentang sejarah tercetusnya konsep wasiat wajibah Mesir, konsep ahli waris pengganti di Indonesia, dan yang terakhir pembahasan tentang relevansi wasiat wajibah terhadap konsep ahli waris pengganti di Indonesia, lalu ditutup dengan kesimpulan dan kontribusi.Kata Kunci: kewarisan Islam, wasiat wajibah Mesir, ahli waris penggantiABSTRACTAlong with the development of problems that occur in society, legal reform is needed to answer problems in the present that have never occurred in the past, one of which is family law in the field of inheritance. The issue of inheritance is a problem that must occur and will be experienced by humans, so that the law of inheritance as a means of settlement of inheritance is always interesting. A phenomenal problem in family law in the field of inheritance is the status of grandchildren as a substitute heir. Whereas in the past, grandchildren could not replace their father's position to receive his grandfather's inheritance because it is obstructed by his uncle. However, this concept was deemed unfair to the grandchildren, so that appears the concept of wasiat wajibah that pioneered by the Egyptian state, which later many countries adopted these concepts, including Indonesia, which is referred to as a substitute heir. The systematic writing of this paper begins with an introduction containing the academic reasons or background for writing this article. Then it is followed by a discussion on the history of the emergence of the Egyptian wasiat wajibah, the concept of a substitute heir in Indonesia, and finally a discussion of the relevance of the wasiat wajibah to the concept of a substitute heir in Indonesia, then closes with conclusions and contributions.Keywords: Islamic inheritance, Egyptian wasiat wajibah, substitute heirs

The Student Academic Record System is an increasingly important aspect in any of the academic Institutions especially in the Technical and Higher Education. The challenges for the administrator and management to make several academic decisions with reference to academic reports are very high. In some cases, the system could not provide ample solution to several problems such as improper course registration, tracking of advisee courses, and inaccurate marks calculation due to manual entry. These things could lead to erroneous reports that could affect the managements decision. In addition, a data or a record that is wrongly entered into a system could affect the result of one or more academic reports that are being required. This paper will provide a structural framework that gives an alternative, complete solution for record keeping and management of useful information for management decision. It will address many issues related to course assessment, course record management that includes record keeping of the student marks, and course tracking. The Smart College Solution-Student Academic Record System (SCS-SARS) will provide a user friendly, reliable and accurate web-based system using Oracle Apex. It will provide an accurate academic statistical and graphical report that can be used by the management in their decision-making

The study population comprises 41 yacht harbors and marinas on the Mediterranean, Aegean, and Marmara coasts. Semi-structured interviews are conducted with the HR managers of the companies. The content analysis method is used, the questions in the interview form are collected under three main themes, and the answers received from the participants are converted into data sets under the same themes. Although there is no HR department, the findings reveal that HR practices are carried out with a modern understanding in most yacht harbors and marinas. HR information systems are used in HR planning, recruitment, selection, performance evaluation, compensation, training, and development. Due to the difficulties in recruiting technical personnel in some companies, there are problems in employing eligible candidates at the right place and time. Since employees with higher education in the sector contribute more, they are primarily preferred in recruitment. As a result, with the HR specialists, significant improvements can be made in HRM, especially the efficiency of HR planning in yacht harbors and marinas.
