Islamic on Screen: Religious Narrative on Indonesia's Television
Authors: Fauzy Fahmi Imam , Jannah Aptiani Nur
Published: October 2021

The digital era does not necessarily replace television as a source of information, including about religion. Television remains vital in the construction and dissemination of religious information in Indonesian society. The survey conducted by PPIM in 2018 shows that 33.73% of Generation Z (youth) access television as a source of religious knowledge (Saputra 2018). The previous research by Alvara in 2020 also found that 54.2% of respondents listen to and watch religious sermons from television (Alvara 2020). Therefore, PPIM UIN Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta through Media and Religious Trend In Indonesia (MERIT) conducted a research entitled “Preaching on Screen: Television and Religious Narrative in Indonesia”, which ran from July to December 2020. The research found that moderate and conservative of islam are highly dominating on television programs in Indonesia.This research is also driven by the significance of television in disseminating religious knowledge demonstrated by the widespread proliferation of religious programs produced on television. These religious programs are broadcasted not only during Ramadan month but also on daily basis. The significant role of television as a source of religious knowledge is also illustrated by the high public interest in watching religious programs. For example, the "Damai Indonesiaku" program produced by TVOne successfully gains a share of 10.42% in the month of Ramadan and 8.33% on normal days (Tirto 2018). The program "Kata Ustadz Solmed" broadcasted by SCTV (Surya Citra Televisi), enjoys a high rating of 31 shares, which is much higher than the soap opera with the highest rating of only 15 shares. In addition to religious programs on public television stations, currently, many TV stations use satellite frequencies to exclusively broadcast religious programs for example RodjaTV, Ihsan TV, and Surau TV. In fact, with the rapid development of the internet, many televisions use Youtube platform to broadcast their religious programs such as CokroTV, Al BahjahTV, YufidTV, TVMU (TVMuhammadiyah), Nabawi TV, and so on.

An improved algorithm for calculating a meteorological indicator of pollution dispersion in surface air (MIPD) using the COSMO-Ru7 configuration forecast data with a discreteness of 1 hour is presented. Using the MIPD as a function of the transport rate and thermal stratification in the atmospheric boundary layer, precipitation and advective temperature changes, the entire range of atmospheric conditions affecting the dispersion of pollutants is divided into three types: weak (the first type), moderate (the second type), and strong (the third type) dispersion. The worst conditions for the pollutant dispersion are provided by the MIPD of the first type; the set of meteorological parameters that determines it corresponds to adverse weather conditions (AWC) that contribute to the accumulation of pollutants in surface air. The proposed detailing within each type of MIPD in the form of subtypes can be useful for predicting AWC for single sources. Illustrations of the MIPD connection with fluctuations in the level of air pollution during the AWC episodes are given using automated measurements of pollutant concentration and fixed network measurements. An algorithm for the probabilistic forecasting of the MIPD, that allows taking into account the uncertainty of the forecast when issuing AWC warnings, is proposed and implemented. Keywords: meteorological conditions of air pollution, adverse weather conditions, numerical prediction

Based on the GDAS (Global Data Assimilation System) information, the conditions for the formation and evolution of a polar cyclone in the Barents Sea in December 2020 are studied. The cyclone in interesting because after entering the Kara Sea, the cyclone did not weaken as usual but continued to intensify. The formation of the cyclone occurred near the ice edge under conditions of the cold Arctic air outbreak. After entering the Kara Sea, the cyclone continued to deepen, which was facilitated by latent and sensible heat fluxes in the ice-free western part of the sea. According to weather station data, when the cyclone moved further over land, the wind direction changed from mainly southern to northern, and wind speed increased significantly. There also was a sharp decrease in air temperature by 7–10 °С for three hours. Keywords: polar cyclone, global data assimilation system, wind speed, latent and sensible heat fluxes

Published: October 2021

Atmospheric circulation processes that caused an extreme sea level drop in the area of the Kashagan offshore oil field in the northeastern part of the Caspian Sea in April 2019 are reviewed and analyzed. It is found that an increase in pressure and wind gradients over the Northern Caspian region led to the occurrence of the set of severe weather events related to each other. An extreme sea level drop caused by the downsurge driven by strong wind was recorded in the area of the Kashagan oil field. Behind the cold front, the cold advection occurred, causing a dramatic air temperature drop by 13 °С. A high temperature contrast and high relative humidity led to the abnormal amount of precipitation of 33 mm per two days. Keywords: water level, severe weather events, downsurge, northeastern part of the Caspian Sea

Climatic characteristics of southeastern Transbaikalia from May to September (the growing season), that determine the accumulation of plant biomass and, hence, agrometeorological characteristics of the territory, are analyzed. The study showed that from 1959 to 2018, there was a significant increase in air temperature values on average for the year and for the growing season. According to the values of precipitation anomalies for the last completed dry phase of the cycle (1999–2011), their increase in comparison with the previous one (1963–1982) is noted. From 2012 till now, a phase of increased moisture has been recorded. The tree-ring chronologies constructed from trees growing in southeastern Transbaikalia can be used to reconstruct the parameters of heat and moisture supply of the territory and to analyze climatic changes over a period significantly exceeding the series of meteorological observations (up to 500 years).

The practice of establishing joint-stock companies as a means to of economic development dates as far back to the pre-Tanzimat period in the Ottoman Empire. This idea gained wider currency during the Second Constitutional Era.
The period in question witnessed a remarkable increase in the number of newly-established companies, which also included banks. Thus, the present study is intended to analyze these banks within the framework of the National Economy (Milli İktisat) policies and state-market relations adopted under the Committee of Union and Progress CUP rule.
As its methodology, the study adopts a selective analysis of banks established in line with the National Economy policies. In this respect, it examined the organizational structure, origin and objectives of banks, regions and their interactions with their respective host communities and regions by the basis of the prevailing economic policies of the period.
Hierarchical model of competition under uncertainty
Authors: Bardin A. E. , Zhiteneva J. N.
Published: October 2021

Oligopoly is a basic concept in the theory of competition. This structure is the central object of research in the economics of markets. There are many mathematical models of the market that are formalized in the form of an oligopoly in economic theory.
The Cournot oligopoly is an elementary mathematical model of competition. The principle of equilibrium formalizes the non-cooperative nature of the conflict. Each player chooses the equilibrium strategy of behavior that provides the greatest profit, provided that the other competitors adhere to their equilibrium strategies.
The Stackelberg model describes a two-level hierarchical model of firm competition. The top-level player (center, leader) chooses his strategy, assuming reasonable (optimal) decision-making by the lower-level players. Lower-level players (agents, followers) recognize the leadership of the center. They consider the center's strategies known. These players choose their strategies, wanting to maximize their payoff functions. This hierarchical structure is from a game point of view a case of a hierarchical game Gamma1.
The indefinite uncontrolled factors (uncertainties) are the values for which only the range of possible values is known in this paper. Recently, studies of game models under uncertainty have been actively conducted. In particular, non-coalitional games under uncertainty are investigated.
The concepts of risk and regret are formalized in various ways in the theory of problems with uncertainty. At the same time, the decision-maker takes into account both the expected losses and the possibility of favorable actions of factors beyond his control.\nThis article examines the two-level hierarchical structure of decision-making in the problem of firm competition. A linear-quadratic model with two levels of hierarchy is considered. This model uses the concepts of Cournot and Stackelberg under uncertainty. Uncontrolled factors (uncertainties) are identified with the actions of the importing company.
The Wald and Savage principles are used to formalize the solution. According to Wald's maximin criterion, game with nature is seen as a conflict with a player who wants to harm the decision-maker as much as possible.\n\nSavage's minimax regret criterion, when choosing the optimal strategy, focuses not on winning, but on regret. As an optimal strategy, the strategy is chosen in which the amount of regret in the worst conditions is minimal.
A new approach to decision-making in the game with nature is formalized. It allows you to combine the positive features of both principles and weaken their negative properties. The concept of U-optimal solution of the problem in terms of risks and regrets is considered.\nThe problems of formalization of some types of optimal solutions for a specific linear-quadratic problem with two levels of hierarchy are solved.

Published: October 2021

A qualitative and quantitative analysis of hydrochemical parameters of water is given in order to identify the factors that determine their spatial and temporal changes in a lake-type reservoir. Water samples were taken in 2019 and 2020 from the average level in spring (April), summer (July) and autumn (September) in the first week of the month in accordance with the requirements of GOST R 51592-2000 in three sections. The first target (1) is the shallow upper part (depth from 2 to 4 m); the second target (2) is the central part (depth from 5 to 7 m) and the third target (3) is the near – dam part (depth up to 12.2 m). Statistical analysis of the obtained data was performed using the unlimited Principal component analysis (PCA) technique and the limited redundancy analysis (RDA) technique. The effects were considered statistically significant at P<0.05, and useful for discussion-at P<0.10. It was found that, despite the flood increase in the level of chemical components in the water of the reservoir, most of them meet the requirements for fishing waters, with the exception of iron, copper, manganese, zinc, nickel and lead, which exceed the MPCVR from 1.1 to 45.0 times. The total variability of the hydrochemical composition of water in the reservoir, estimated by the PCA method, depends on the season of the year by 71.4 %. A similar result was obtained by the RDA method in a model with a single regressor. When all factors are taken into account in the RDA model, the variability of the water chemical composition is affected by the season of the year by 74.3 %, the year of research by 11.1 %, and the location of the target by 1.9 %. The primary indicators of water for the proportion of unexplained variability in both the PCA and RDA methods are manganese, bicarbonates, lead and aluminum, and pH.

On the Possibility of Reducing the Measurement Error of Spectrometers with Proportional Gas Detectors in the RC-CR Formation of Output Signals
Authors: Sergeev Alexander
Published: October 2021

When analyzing the elemental composition of the substance under study, the task is to determine the true intensity of the radiation lines. The error in determining the intensity is caused by errors in the spectrometer. Reducing the error can be achieved by taking into account (correcting) the errors, as well as reducing them. In this paper, we propose a method for reducing the measurement error by reducing the miscalculations with an acceptable deterioration in the energy resolution of the spectrometer. An algorithm for automatically setting the duration of the output signals of the spectrometric amplifier and the width of the differential discriminator window for amplitude analysis is presented.
pH-driven enhancement of anti-tubercular drug loading on iron oxide nanoparticles for drug delivery in macrophages
Authors: Cotta Karishma Berta , Mehra Sarika , Bandyopadhyaya Rajdip
Published: October 2021

Nanoparticle deployment in drug delivery is contingent upon controlled drug loading and a desired release profile, with simultaneous biocompatibility and cellular targeting. Iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs), being biocompatible, are used as drug carriers. However, to prevent aggregation of bare IONPs, they are coated with stabilizing agents. We hypothesize that, zwitterionic drugs like norfloxacin (NOR, a fluoroquinolone) can manifest dual functionality – nanoparticle stabilization and antibiotic activity, eliminating the need of a separate stabilizing agent. Since these drugs have different charges, depending on the surrounding pH, drug loading enhancement could be pH dependent. Hence, upon synthesizing IONPs, they were coated with NOR, either at pH 5 (predominantly as cationic, NOR+) or at pH 10 (predominantly as anionic, NOR−). We observed that, drug loading at pH 5 exceeded that at pH 10 by 4.7–5.7 times. Furthermore, only the former (pH 5 system) exhibited a desirable slower drug release profile, compared to the free drug. NOR-coated IONPs also enable a 22 times higher drug accumulation in macrophages, compared to identical extracellular concentrations of the free drug. Thus, lowering the drug coating pH to 5 imparts multiple benefits – improved IONP stability, enhanced drug coating, higher drug uptake in macrophages at reduced toxicity and slower drug release.
Treatment Recommendations for the Management of Osteoarthritis
Authors: Sun Caroline , Dang Dennis , Lewis Jelena
Published: October 2021

OA is the most common form of arthritis. It results from the degradation of the joint through overuse or injury. It is estimated that 30.8 million adults in the United States suffer from OA. Treatment options of OA come in both non-pharmacologic and pharmacologic forms, with varying levels of efficacy for each option depending on the joint it is intended to be used for. In 2019, the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) updated the guidelines for the management of osteoarthritis of the knee, hip, and hand. The guidelines have been updated to state that acetaminophen is no longer the first line option for OA. In addition supplements like glucosamine and chondroitin are also no longer favored for use in the management of OA. This clinical capsule aims to describe the guidelines for OA as outlined by the ACR so that pharmacists in any type of setting, but especially in the community, can recommend appropriate therapy and counsel patients accordingly.

Published: October 2021

Temperature fluctuation occurs while mixing of hot and cold fluids in a T-junction due to incomplete thermal mixing. This temperature fluctuation can produce thermal fatigue at the weld area of the T-junction. The present study aims to numerically investigate the thermal mixing characteristics of hot and cold fluids in a T-junction. The realizable k-ε turbulence model is used with natural gas as the working fluid. Temperature distribution, mixing quality, and intensity of temperature fluctuation are evaluated and compared along with the mixing outlet. The inlet temperature difference and branch to main pipe flowrate ratio have a direct influence on thermal mixing. The higher temperature difference can reduce the thermal mixing performance. Thermal mixing increases with the increase of branch to main pipe flowrate. The intensity of temperature fluctuation is found within a short distance from the intersecting point of the two inlets. With the increase of distance along with the mixing outlet, the frequency of temperature fluctuation decreases, and thermal mixing increases.
A Reading of Luke 10:38-42 as a Covenant Renewal Discourse: Implication for Women in Ghana
Authors: Nsiah Alice Matilda
Published: October 2021

Scholars have divided opinions concerning the role of women in the covenant community of Israel. While some argue that women are placed in a secondary position, others looked at the covenant directives as ambiguous with regard to women. However, covenant renewal creates the opportunity to modify and innovate existing covenants to respond to the new needs of covenant receivers. Using the discourse theory of Paul Ricoeur, the author argues that Luke 10:38-42 is a covenant renewal discourse. The discourse aims at redefining women’s roles in the covenant community. The study concludes that women have new roles that empower them to make meaningful contributions to society.

Key Words: Values, Covenant, Women, Discourse.

Since the late 1980s there has been a global rethinking of the human impact on the environment. This led to the emergence of various theories emphasizing environmental stewardship while maintaining a sustainable rate of economic growth. These theories are called the concept of sustainable development. The ecological component of sustainable development emphasizes a frugal attitude to the ecosystem, «green» technologies as the basis for innovative growth and protection of the right of future generations to the quality of the environment. Most developed countries already emphasize the development of such "green" technologies as hydropower, wind power, solar and bioenergy, and geothermal energy. Due to the growing demand of countries for energy resources, it is the development of "green" energy that can become a key point of economic growth of the national economy without harming the environment.

Published: October 2021

The modern economy and society are in a state of crisis, which is linked to the exhaustion of the existing development paradigm based on the concept of "market fundamentalism". High rates of technological development and the transition to a new technological order exacerbate the contradictions of the existing social and economic organization, causing problems that can lead to a civilization crisis. It is necessary to develop new theoretical concepts that are adequate to the modern period of global transformations. The author shows that such concepts should be based on the theories of the New Industrial Society of the second generation and noonomy. Integration of the elements of these theories into the system of modern knowledge, as well as the implementation of their conclusions into the practice of economic policy will help to overcome existing problems and successfully achieve the goals of Russia's national development.

This paper presents the results of numerical modelling of the influence of various factors (geometrical layout of the structural layers of the railway track, climatic factors and ballast fouling) on the freezing of railway track structure with a built-in thermal insulation layer of extruded polystyrene (Styrodur). At the same time, the suitability and expediency of incorporating the thermal insulation layer at the sub-ballast upper surface level (i.e. below the rail ballast construction layer), or at the level of subgrade surface are discussed. Numerical modelling results in the main factors that should be taken into account in the dimensioning of the sub-ballast layers with a built-in thermal insulation layer. Based on the data on the depth of freezing of the railway track structure obtained from numerical modelling, a design nomogram for dimensioning was created and subsequently the influence of the changes of climatic characteristics on the freezing of the railway track structure was then mathematically expressed.

Background: Schizophrenia is one of the mental disorder with many problematic issues, in both psychologically and socially. This disease requires provision of long-term antipsychotic therapy, hence could rise other potential health problems. Antipsychotic treatment can cause serious glucometabolic side-effects, including type 2 diabetes and hyperglycemic emergency. Recent attention has also been focused on antipsychotic-induced hyperglycemic emergencies experienced by new users of typical and atypical antipsychotic. Patients treated with atypical APDs have ~10 times higher risk in developing hyperglycaemic emergencies. In our pre-eliminary study, hyperglycemia condition in new patients occurs in four  in seven patients who received typical and atypical antipsychotics. This condition is often overlooked and is not routinely evaluated. Moreover, it can develop into diabetes and increase the risk of morbidity and mortality in schizophrenia patients. In this study, we would like to determine the acute effects of metabolic (hyperglycemia) in patients treated with antipsychotic (Risperidone and Haloperidol) Measurement of blood sugar levels was performed in groups treated with haloperidol (N = 15) and treated with risperidone (N = 15). Plasma samples were taken at the beginning of treatment, in week IV, and in week VIII. The measurement of glucose levels was performed after meal and in early morning before breakfast (fasting blood glucose level 8 hours).
Results: The blood sugar level after meals was significantly higher in the Risperidone group compared to the Haloperidol group  (p <0.001) after IV and VIII weeks. Meanwhile, the fasting blood sugar level was significantly higher in the Risperidone group compared to the Haloperidol group after VIII weeks of treatment ( p <0.001).
Conclusions: Both antipsychotics can cause an increase in blood sugar levels. Treatment with Risperidone significantly increased the blood sugar levels compared to treatment with haloperidol. Measurement of blood sugar level is needed to monitor the metabolic effect of antipsychotic, especially in patients treated with Risperidone. It is necessary to have dietary regulation and physical activities to prevent undesired metabolic side effects.

BACKGROUND: Nurses’ duties and responsibilities related to the risk of transmitting COVID-19. Studies that explore nurses’ feelings and perspectives in providing health services at COVID-19 referral hospitals, especially in developing countries like Indonesia, are limited.

AIM: This study aims to explore nurses’ feelings, perceptions, and expectations of the COVID-19 pandemic.

METHODS: This qualitative study applied the qualitative descriptive design that involved 17 nurses from different hospitals in Indonesia. The semi-structured interview gathered their views of COVID-19, and the comparative analysis for interviews technique was chosen to analyze the data.

RESULTS: Three themes emerged from the data analysis. The themes were nurses’ express psychological responses in facing the COVID-19 pandemic such as fear, surrender, panic, and calmness. Other two themes included the COVID 19 pandemic enhances nurses’ health awareness and behavior, and the government protect nurses from the COVID-19 transmission and social stigma.

CONCLUSION: The feelings reported dominantly by the nurse, in addition to information about health awareness, behavior, the government’s actions, and their expectations. Mental health assistance would be useful to prevent depression in nurses, and the government’s comprehensive approaches in dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic would increase the protection and productivity of health workers, including nurses.

Introduction: Diabetes mellitus (DM) remains the major global health problem, predicted to exceed half a billion people in 2040. One of the major complications was lower extremity neuropathy leading to foot ulcer and amputation. This study aimed to investigate the effect of routine Buerger exercise on the neuropathy index of people with DM. Methods: A pre-and posttest quasi-experimental study between May and August 2018 involving DM patients in primary health centre was conducted. They were prospectively recruited and either be allocated into the intervention group where the monitored routine Buerger exercise was performed or control group with the standard education on DM. Michigan Neuropathy Screening Instrument (MNSI) with subjective and objective measurement was used to evaluate the neuropathy index. Results: Seventy-seven participants (63 females) with mean age of 58.2±7.2 years completed the study with similar characteristics. Mean pretest MNSI score for intervention and control group were 3.8±1.7 and 3.9±1.6 respectively, and were not different (P = 0.561). At the end of follow up, significant decrease was observed in the intervention group (2.8±2.2, P = 0.011) but not in control group (4.0±1.9, P=0.947). Physical examination according to MNSI guideline showed a significant reduction in the neuropathy score for the intervention group from 1.8±1.4 at the start to 1.3±1.1 at the end of the study (P< 0.001), but this was not seen in the control group. Conclusion: Buerger exercise had a beneficial effect on improving the neuropathy index and symptoms of DM patients with high risk of diabetic foot ulcer.

BACKGROUNDS: Breast cancer or breast carcinoma is the most common type of malignancy in women globally. According to the previous studies that indicate the usage of antihypertensive drugs may become a risk factor of cancer (beta-blockers [BBs], calcium channel blockers [CCBs], and diuretics). Both angiotensin-converting enzymes inhibitors (ACEIs) and angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs), on the other hand, have been associated to an increased or decreased risk of breast cancer. AIM: To compare each type of antihypertensive medicines as a risk factor for breast cancer, we did a systematic review and meta-analysis of current evidence. METHODS: We utilized the terms “antihypertensive”, “anti-hypertensive”, “anti-hypertensive medications”, “breast cancer”, “risk”, “case control”, and “cohort” in PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar databases. RESULTS: Our data calculation found that the risk of antihypertensive drugs was significantly different in overall analysis (odds ratio [OR] = 0.59, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.42–0.83, p = 0.003). Five studies with 39.503 breast cancer patients and 372.037 controls were included in the ARBs user sub-group. Our results found significant different of antihypertensive drugs among breast cancer patient (OR = 1.47, 95% CI = 1.02–2.11 p = 0.04). Our data calculation also confirmed no significant different in antihypertensive drugs among breast cancer patient (OR = 1.07, 95% CI = 0.99–1.16, p = 0.09) in diuretics user, (OR = 1.08, 95% CI = 0.99–1.18, p = 0.08) in CCBs user, (OR = 1.11, 95% CI = 0.98–1.26, p = 0.09) in BBs user, and (OR = 1.27, 95% CI = 0.64–2.50, p = 0.50) in ACEIs user. CONCLUSIONS: Although, the finding reveal that antihypertensive drugs (diuretics, CCBs, BBs, and ACEIs) in overall are significant for the risk of breast cancer and also found that ARBs have a low potential in the risk of breast cancer.

The recent upsurge of the desert locust Schistocerca gregaria (Forskål, 1775) has had an impact on East Africa and the Middle East as far as India. It has affected and slowed down many aspects of the Pakistani economy. Swarms of locusts have infested many areas and caused immense damage to all types of crops. Both farmers and economists are concerned and are trying to get the most up-to-date information on the best strategy to manage this pest. This paper is an attempt to (i) provide insight into the dynamics of this upsurge internationally as well as in the various regions of Pakistan, (ii) briefly assess its local impact and locust control measures, and (iii) clarify the role of the various stakeholders in the management, both nationally and internationally, suggesting various improvements for the future.
