Published: June 2023

Background: Beta thalassemia major (Cooley's anemia) is a congenital genetic blood disorder resulting from a deficiency of β-globin chains due to severe anemia that depends on continuous blood transfusions for survival. Patients suffer from hemoglobinopathy, infection, diabetes mellitus, growth retardation, enlargement and damage to the liver and spleen, bone marrow aplasia and delayed sexual maturity. This complication arises due to the accumulation of iron, the impairment of antioxidants from vitamins, and an increase in lipid peroxides (MDA).Objectives: The study aimed to evaluate vitamin D and B12 levels and their relationship with MDA, liver enzymes (AST, ALT, ALP), iron and (Total Billirubin, Direct Billirubin, Indirect Billirubin).Materials and methods: The samples of BTM patients under study were (100 samples), (50 samples) for both males and females. Patients' ages ranged from (2-30 years). While the control sample was (40), with (20 samples) for each of the two sexes. Their ages ranged from (2-30 years). Their disease was confirmed by blood tests, hemoglobin electrophoresis, DNA analysis, and elevated ferritin levels. Vitamin D and B12 levels were assessed by immunoassay. While (MDA, Fe, AST, ALT, ALP) and (Total Billirubin, Direct Billirubin, Indirect Billirubin) were evaluated by colorimetric methods.Results: Vitamin D and B12 levels decreased significantly (p≤0.05). While the levels of (MDA, Fe, AST, ALT, ALP) and (Total Billirubin, Direct Billirubin, Indirect Billirubin) increased significantly at (p≤0.05) in BTM patients compared with the control group. Where the effect of the disease according to the results was clear in patients with age.

conclusion: Our results indicate that the weakness of the antioxidant systems (vitamin D and B12) with the increase in oxidative factors resulting from the complications of the disease led to the exacerbation of the disease with iron overload, causing an increase in the levels of liver enzymes in the blood, damaging the liver and spleen.

Published: June 2023

In recent years, interactive multimedia guides have become increasingly common in museums, exhibition spaces, and tourist attractions. Over the past decade, Hsin Beitou government and local residents have launched a series of reform movements for local tourism. During the research process, it was found that the current planning of attractions lacks pre-tour guidance and itinerary arrangements. In on-site surveys, tourists expressed uncertainty about the route guidance of the attractions, and their itineraries usually began upon arrival at the destination or by searching for fragmented video materials beforehand. Through this research, the design of different types of videos, including narrative attraction animation videos, influencer videos focusing on attractions, and videos solely introducing attractions, were explored to investigate their impact on viewer attitudes and travel motivations.Previous studies have mainly focused on one-sided tourism discussions. This thesis, however, conducted field surveys, preliminary studies, and interviews to connect cultural and historical tourist attractions into a complete narrative-guided video. Drawing on literature research and analysis of narrative transportation theory, story-based tourism marketing, and video tourism, the thesis designed a video that provides clear and concise travel guidance, saving tourists' time. The 3 types of videos, including narrative animated tour video, influencer tour video and attraction introduction video were provided for tourists to explore the impact of these 3 videos on their travel motivations and the narrative transportation effectiveness. The study employed a questionnaire based on the narrative transportation theory and Likert 5-point scale to understand the satisfaction of the participants with the narrative-guided video and their motivation to visit the attractions.Based on literature research, this study connected significant attractions of Hsin Beitou area to create a narrative-guided video called "Hsin Beitou Healing Notebook". The content of the video was designed according to Gerrig's TIM scale, which includes The TIM scale included 11absorption propensity items and one imagery ability item capturing its major dimensions of cognitive, affective, and imagery involvement. The narrative of the video focused on a Japanese wounded soldier revisiting old sites in Hsin Beitou and recalling his experiences of healing after World War II. From this narrative, nine highlights of Hsin Beitou tourism were identified. The study applied narrative transportation theory to tourism, examining the impact of video design on tourists' travel motivations, using narrative-guided video design as the research method.

Overcoming Namibia’s worst drought in the last 40 years: Ethnographic insights from Okakarara constituency
Authors: Diego A. Menestrey Schwieger
Published: June 2023

In 2019, Namibia experienced one of the worst droughts in recent decades, significantly affecting its agricultural economy, especially the livestock production sector. In this context, there is limited literature about how pastoral farmers in the country’s communal agricultural areas navigated this severe dryness. This paper addresses this knowledge gap by introducing a case study involving Ovaherero pastoralists in the Okakarara constituency. Following a mixed-method approach, it describes the practices implemented by local households to keep their cattle herds alive, the challenges they experienced thereby, and the strategies used for recovering their livestock losses. The study reveals that essential drought-coping practices, such as livestock mobility along with various long-term risk reduction mechanisms, such as reservation of emergency pastures, and social institutions of exchange, are limited in the communities described in this research. The paper discusses the main reasons for these conditions and their implications for local farmers, considering that more frequent droughts of similar severity are projected for the coming years in the region.
‘Eekamba adishe nadi ufanwe, Eendingosho adishe na di ongelwe u pule kwali Nashima’: Nanghili Nashima, The performer and feminist intellectual
Authors: Martha Akawa  , Ndapewa Fenny Nakanyete  , Nashilongweshipwe Mushaandja
Published: June 2023

This article studies Nanghili Nashima’s Oudano practices and public life. We discuss how her autobiographical public performance practices during apartheid and independent Namibia constitute feminism. The study mainly focused on the sound and video recordings currently archived at the Namibian Broadcasting Corporation's Music Library and on YouTube. This work offers critical engagement on themes of migration, sexuality and labour, challenging colonial, Christian, patriarchal and heteronormative norms, and systems in Ovawambo and African societies at large. We unpack her mobile work and public life as defiant and subversive, therefore, speaking truth to multiple forms of power. By listening collectively and closely to her performance work, the study argues that Nanghili Nashima emerged as a trans-local figure who relied on transgression through her Oudano praxis to embody agency and radical imagination as practices of freedom. It is on this basis that her intellectual tradition is situated in what Pumla Gqola has theorised as African feminist imagination.

IMPLICATIONS OF BAD TRANSLATION OF LEGAL TERMS ON A JUDICIAL CASE: PERSPECTIVES OF ARABIC TRANSLATORS
Authors: Nasser Jameel Al-Shamayleh  , Aisha Mohamed Ismail Elamin
Published: June 2023

The question of translation accuracy is at the core of the field of translation studies. Despite the abundance of tools for evaluating translation quality, hardly anything is understood about the consequences of a poorly done translation. Students of translation often find the legal system to be one of the most complex. The translation of judicial documents from English to Arabic and from Arabic to English is particularly challenging due to the differences in linguistic system, legal permutations, and cultural variety between the two cultures. Equally, practitioners of translation use various methods for coping with these challenges. The purpose of this research was to look at the obstacles and issues that Arabic translators have while working on statutory documents and the methods they employ to overcome them. In addition, the story of a wrongful conviction Mazhar Hussain in Pakistan brought about by the inaccurate translation of legal concepts is presented in the paper. This survey gathered the opinions of Arabic translators. Over 70 Arabic translators took part in the survey, which was distributed online. According to the results, the most difficult aspects of translating legal contracts into Arabic are the use of binominal phrases and paralleled structures, the construction of legal sentences, the handling of numerous negatives, and the arrangement of legal texts. Poor translation of legal precepts has far-reaching consequences, as shown by the reported instance of wrongful conviction in Pakistan. The study's findings have significant implications for those working in the field of translation education, as well as for those developing curricula for it. As a result, it's clear that those who translate legal codes require education in the nuances of different legal systems, the influence of other cultures, and the wider repercussions of doing things wrong.

The harm of death and the transferability of the right to compensation: A comparative study
Authors: Nasser Jameel Al-Shamayleh  , Aisha Mohamed Ismail Elamin
Published: June 2023

This study aims to determine how the right of compensation for death is transferable to the heirs. It is agreed that harming a human body should warrant compensation. Even if it does not result in financial losses, it is considered an attack on the human body. Nevertheless, the prevailing trend in positive law still hesitates to consider the harm of death in itself, a harm that requires compensation. On the contrary, we find that Islamic jurisprudence considers the matter in its natural and logical setting from a long time ago. It is decided to guarantee and compensate for bodily damages, whether they resulted from deadly or non-deadly injury, regardless of the financial losses and consequences or moral damages that result from this damage. By referring to the Jordanian civil law, it becomes clear that compensation for bodily harm is carried out according to the rules of blood money, whose provisions are derived from Islamic jurisprudence and the provisions of Western laws, especially those related to the inclusion of compensation for the actual damage in its moral and material aspects, and its elements of actual loss and lost profit, which some jurists believe. Contemporary Muslims have what supports it in the rules of compensation in Islamic jurisprudence, especially the rule that there is no harm and no foul. In this study, we address how compensation for the harm of death is transferable to heirs in legal jurisprudence and the judiciary system and how the right to compensation for the harm of death is transferable to the heirs in Islamic jurisprudence. The comparative approach between legal jurisprudence and Islamic jurisprudence has been applied, based on strengthening jurisprudential positions with judicial positions closely related to the subject. The study recommended that the Jordanian Court of Cassation amend its jurisprudence and re-consider the death damage guarantee as material compensation for independent material damage. This should be transferred to the heirs through the inheritance and is claimed under the hereditary lawsuit, as it violated the provision of Article 274 of the Jordanian Civil Code, which authorized the death damage compensation. It also violated what was followed by Islamic civil jurisprudence and comparative judiciary.

Published: June 2023

Caring for and treating a child's health is an important need to achieve optimal health? It is a concept that reaches beyond mere recovery from illness. It's achieved by balancing the different aspects of the child, including physical, psychological, mental, and spiritual aspects.A sick child needs therapeutic environments that provide medical care in a way that accelerates the recovery process. The therapeutic environment for the child prefers to be positive and conscious with its incentives that enhance the child's ability to receive treatment, reduce their fear and anxiety and distract them from the disease, which provokes positive feelings and helps them to recover quickly.Here comes the great role that pediatric hospitals play through their design style, which addresses dimensions related to the concepts of therapeutic indoor spaces and their financial and psychological impact on the child and thus their impact on the healing process

Authors: Sofyan A.P. Kau  , Zulkarnain Suleman  , Lahaji  , Mujizatullah  , Nazar Husain Hadi Pranata Wibawa
Published: June 2023

This paper discusses the tradition of Bai’at (be'ati) or initiation for a teenage girl after the arrival of the first menstruation in the traditional culture of Gorontalo. Through field studies by interviews, observation and study of documents, this research shows that the procession of the initiation ritual ceremony (mome'ati) is conducted in six stages, including: molungudu (sauna bath with traditional herbs), momonto (putting a red mark on the forehead), momuhuto (bathing with traditional herbs), mopohuta'a to pingge (stepping on a plate), mome'ati (initiation ritual) and mohatamu (completing the recitation of the Qur’an). The six be'ati rituals are loaded with moral values as a living guidance for the teenage girl. In the perspective of Islamic law philosophy, molungudu and momuhuto are aligned with the principle of benefit as they emphasize physical health and personal hygiene. In the fiqh category, both are included in the discourse of thahârah (cleanliness). Meanwhile, momonto and mopohuta'a to pingge emphasize the identity of the Muslim personality and the attitude of being careful in treading the teenage life. Both are included in the category of Islamic morality, since they are loaded with moral messages. Whereas, mome'ati emphasizes the practice of the pillars of Faith, the pillars of Islam, and obedience to both parents. As for mohatamu, it emphasizes the love for the Holy Qur'an. All stages in the be'ati ritual show the acculturation of Islam with the local culture of Gorontalo. Even, the be'ati tradition is the implementation of Islamic teachings through culture and customs ('urf).
