Authors: Faisal Muhammad
Published: August 2021

The interpretation of the Qur'an with the approach of bil'ilmi interpretation is one of the interpretation patterns in today's contemporary. This is more because of the development of technology and science that in contemporary times is felt very strongly. but. In fact, the development of this bil'ilmi interpretation approach has begun to appear in classical times, where one of the figures who played an important role in his birth was Imam Al-Ghazali. The presence of this interpretation of bil 'ilmi approach does not necessarily go according to the expected there are also pros and cons. Regardless of the support or rejection of this interpretation of bil 'ilmi, of course information about the existence of science has been explained in some letters in the Qur'an. one example is the process of human creation. In some verses God clearly explains how man's creation from the beginning until the formation of man was perfect.  The phenomenon of human formation has been described in the Koran as about 1400 years ago, and its evidence in modern times today by using sophisticated tools such USG (Ultrasonografi ) tools both in the form of 2,3,4 dimensions used to see the development of fetuses in the womb. Qur'an is a book that provides a source of inspiration about science, where people in this case are instructed to continue to think in digging the content in the Qur'an so that human thinking continues to develop. And most importantly the signs of science in the Qur'an to make people more believe in Allah almighty through the signs of his power in the context of knowledge.

Transformational leadership is part of a very interesting and unique leadership model. This transformational leadership has implemented on four dimensions by Bass and Riggio: ideal influence of transformational leadership, inspirational motivation of transformational leadership, intellectual stimulation of transformational leadership, individual consideration of transformational leadership. This leader is as an agent of change who strengthen his knowledge, experience and ability. Especially if it is associated with the development of prophetic culture. At present, the study of prophetic culture can be categorized as a new trend. Although the nature of this prophetic culture has existed since the Prophets, it highlights more aspects of prophetic values. These prophetic cultural values carry Kuntowijoyo theory which is based on three pillars namely transcendence, humanization, and liberation. The research questions presenter on this dissertation are as follows: How is transformational leadership to build prophetic culture in SDI Makarimul Akhlaq Jombang and SDI Roushon Fikr Jombang? While purpose of the research is to explain the quistions that have been asked. This research is a qualitative research with a naturalistic phenomenological approach with multisite design. Techniques used for collecting the data are observation, interview, and documentation. Data analysis includes single site analysis and cross-site analysis. The techniques for analyzing the data are data reduction, data display and verification and conclusion. The results of this study are made of conclusion the dimension of transformational leadership in building by Bass and Riggio’s theory need to be added, namely partner stimulation because this partner stimulation can produce total leadership in building a professional culture. Likewise in Kuntowijoyo's prophetic culture about theocentric-humanization that the concept of humanism-theocentric that Kuntowijoyo built from the findings of the study also provided additional as an existing development, namely theocentric-humanism-liberation because of the findings of researchers who showed infaq practices not only humanizing humans with based on faith alone, but indeed included in it is to free or free someone from distress.
Meaning in life and resilience among teachers
Authors: Platsidou Maria , Daniilidou Athena
Published: August 2021

Meaning in life is a significant resource in the resilience process, supporting the use of adaptive behaviors and enhancing the feeling of wellbeing. As such, it could be critical for teachers who encounter many stressors threatening their life quality and work productivity. This study aimed to investigate how teachers' levels of meaning in life relate to their resilience. Data were collected from 299 teachers using the Meaning in Life Questionnaire (assessing presence of and search for meaning) and the Multidimensional Teacher Resilience Scale (assessing protective factors related to motivational and professional, social, and emotional resilience). As predicted, presence of meaning had medium-sized positive correlations with the resilience factors, whereas search for meaning had low correlations with social resilience and professional-motivational resilience and no correlation with emotional resilience. Using K-means cluster analysis, teachers were grouped into three clusters according to their scores in the two meaning dimensions. The cluster of teachers reporting both high presence of and high search for meaning showed the highest scores on the resilience factors, followed by the cluster including teachers with high presence and low search. In conclusion, our results emphasized the important role of presence of meaning in strengthening resilient responses; also, searching for meaning, when combined with a high sense of meaning, relates to better use of the resilience protective factors and resources. As to the study implications, a meaning-centered approach to building resilience in teachers is suggested and discussed.
GOBERNANZA ECONÓMICA EUROPEA Y MODELO TERRITORIAL DE DISTRIBUCIÓN DEL PODER

el objetivo de este artículo es analizar el impacto que tiene la
nueva articulación del poder en la Unión Europea en el Estado español de las autonomías.
La relación política-economía a nivel europeo debe tener en cuenta dos
coordenadas fundamentales. Por una parte, la consideración del orden constitucional
europeo como un orden distinto al gestado bajo las coordenadas del constitucionalismo
social. Por otra, la caracterización de la constitución económica
europea como ámbito de materialización de las nuevas transformaciones que incorpora
el proyecto de integración europeo. Fundamentalmente, porque la constitución
económica europea representa la plataforma idónea desde la que dilucidar
la nueva articulación del poder desde el espacio supranacional europeo.

Moreover, the characterization of the European economic constitution
as a field of realization of the new transformations incorporated by the European
project. Specially, because this represents the ideal platform in order to analyse
the new articulation of power from European supranational space.

La Ley 2/2013, de 29 de mayo, de protección y uso sostenible del
litoral modifica de forma significativa a la Ley 22/1988, de 28 de julio, de Costas.
El legislador justifica su aprobación como una forma de actuar frente a los excesos
urbanísticos, generar confianza y mayor actividad económica en la franja
litoral, sin embargo, muchas de las medidas que introduce son de discutible
aplicación práctica, por sus defectos de orden técnico y jurídico. De esta forma,
la Ley de protección y uso sostenible del litoral, lejos de cumplir con su objetivo
de generar confianza y seguridad jurídica, lo que realmente hace es introducir
mayor indeterminación en aspectos clave del régimen jurídico de la costa, produciendo
cambios en la concepción del dominio público marítimo-terrestre y las
servidumbres colindantes, en la delimitación de los deslindes, en las concesiones
y régimen de utilización de la costa. En este artículo se presenta a la reforma
como un giro hacia lo desconocido, por la imprevisibilidad de muchas de las
medidas que introduce.

The Act 2/2013 of May 29th for the protection and sustainable use
of the seacoast changes significantly Act 22/1998 of July 28th about coasts. The
legislator justifies its approval as a way of acting against urban excesses, building
confidence and more economic activity at the seacoast; although many of the
measures introduced are of disputable practical application due to its technical
and legal flaws. In this way, the Act for the protection and sustainable use of the
seacoast does not meet its aim of building confidence and legal certainty, but it introduces
a greater indetermination regarding some key issues of the legal regime for the coast provoking changes in the conception of the public shoreline domain
and the legal regime of the coastal use. This article introduces the reform as a turn
to the unbeknown due to the unpredictability of many of the established measures.
Organizational Change and Strategic Thinking
Authors: Folarin Kehinde
Published: August 2021

In most organizations, the strategic planning process is an annual exercise at best. It ensures that leaders pause at some point to take stock in their organizations, look out over the horizon, assess the external environment and establish their team’s priorities and goals. It’s a valuable process. However, it doesn’t typically happen frequently or fast enough to address the challenges and complexities of the present-day corporate world. That’s why leaders with strategic thinking skills have the edge in navigating organizational change. This article addresses the current scenario and realities of organizations and proffered some recommendations.

Мақалада қазақ халқының болмысындағы өнердің алар орны қарастырылған. Халық биінің шығу тегі ерте заманнан бастау алады. Би мен қозғалыстың алғашқы формалары адам заттың қоршаған әлемнен алған әсерін көрсетудің бір түрі ретінде қарастырылады. Ауыз әдебиеті, күй, айтыс, жыр-дастан сияқты халықпен бірге жасасып келе жатқан өнер түрлерімен синкреттік түрде дамып, бізге жеткен би өнері жөнінде ой толғайды. Қазақ өнерін зерделеген ғалымдардың тұжырымдамаларына сүйене отырып, би мәдениетінің даму кезеңдерінде қазақ болмысындағы орны қарастырылған. Қазақ халқының тыныс-тіршілігіндегі, өмір салтындағы дәстүрлі би өнерінің болмысын айқындау мақсатында, авторлар тарихи-хронологиялық жүйелеу, саралау, салыстыру, бақылау әдістерін қолданады. Бақсы ойыны тек дінге байланысты деп қарамай, оның ерекше әрекеттері арқылы би өнеріндегі негізгі қимыл қоззғалыстары қалыптасқаны жөнінде айтылады.
Халықтың тарихи кезеңдеріне байланысты өзгеріске ұшырап отырған өнер түрлері де әркез даму үстінде болғаны белгілі. Осы тұрғыдан алғанда қарапайым қимылдарға негізделген би өнері, жетіле келе халықтың ажырамас өнер түріне айналып отыр. Қазақтың болмысы тәлім-тәрбие арқылы белгіленсе би өнері сол тәрбие мен салт-дәстүрді негізге ала отырып, дамығанын білеміз.
Адам затының көңіл күйiн білдіретін, музыкалық ырғақтың сырт бейнесін суреттейтін, түрлi қимылдар арқылы әсер қалдыратын өнер – би деп білеміз. Би арқылы адам баласына тән әсемдiк пен әдемiлiк, өмiрге деген көзқарасы мен көңiл күйi көрiнiс табу арқылы рухани күйге енеді. Ал, осы өнер түрінің қалыптасып, дамуында әр халықтың өзiне тән мiнез құлқы, тұрмы-салты, мәдениетi әсер етедiндігі айтылады.

SOCIETAL AWARENESS OF THE CHILD’S RIGHTS ACT AMONG RURAL AND URBAN DWELLERS OF OGUN STATE
Authors: OJEBIYI W. G. , ASHIMOLOWO O. R., , BANMEKE T. O. A. , ARIYO A. M.
Published: August 2021

Protecting the rights of children has become important to local and international agencies of government and non-governmental organizations. This led to the formulation of laws that provided for and protected the rights of the child. Such laws include the United Nation’s Convention on the Rights of the Child, the African Charter on the Rights and Welfare of the Child, the Nigeria’s Child’s Rights Act (CRA) and the Child’s Rights Law of Ogun State. However, the provisions of these documents seem to be inefficient in curbing the violation of child’s rights due to the high prevalence of street hawking, raping, corporal punishment, etc among children in Nigeria and Ogun State in particular. Hence, this study sought the societal awareness of CRA in rural and urban areas of Ogun State. About 243 rural and urban residents were interviewed through multistage sampling techniques with the aid of questionnaires and interview schedules administered on the different groups of respondents. The result showed that 69.14% of Ogun State residents were aware of the CRA. It further revealed that awareness of CRA was higher in urban than rural areas. Awareness of CRA was primarily sourced through the radio (42.86%) and television (42.86%). Radio and awareness campaigns were the most common sources of awareness among rural (51.76%) and urban (65.06%) residents respectively. The study recommended that government agencies and non-governmental organizations should sponsor more programmes that will be specifically directed to raising residents’ awareness of CRA in rural areas of the state.

STATISTICAL ANALYSIS OF TEMPORAL VARIATIONS IN INDOOR RADON DATA USING AN ADAPTED RESPONSE SURFACE METHOD
Authors: DAWODU G. A. , ALATISE O. O. , MUSTAPHA A. O.
Published: August 2021

Temporary variations in indoor radon data (IRD), comprising radon concentration (RC), air temperature, relative humidity and barometric pressure were monitored hourly over a period of two months in a bungalow house in Abeokuta, Nigeria. A total of 1510 data was assembled and analyzed statistically using Shapiro-Wilk for normality test, response surface method (RSM) and adapted response surface method (ARSM) to investigate and model the influence of the meteorological parameters on the variations of RC in indoor air. The overall results showed that RC varies widely over time and correlates positively with relative humidity and temperature, but negatively with barometric pressure. Specific results of the two response surface methods were compared and contrasted and the multiple linear regression model of the ARSM was highlighted and established as the appropriate method for analyzing IRD. ARSM was presented in an easily reusable form that can easily be adopted by researchers and data analysts.ª¤?

This study was aimed at measuring and comparing the activity concentration of soil samples collected from some selected hand – dug wells with their corresponding depths of collection in Abeokuta metropolis. Total of twenty (20) soil samples were collected from hand-dug wells in five sites (Obada, Adigbe, Kuto, Olorunsogo, and Obantoko) within Abeokuta with four (4) soil samples from each hand-dug well at the surface, (0.0m) through to 2.25m depth. Gamma ray spectroscopy with High Purity Germanium (HPGe) detector was used for the measurements. The average activity concentrations obtained for the three natural radionuclides 226Ra, 232Th and 40K in Bq/Kg are 34.31 ± 2.01, 128.73 ± 4.41 and 152.31 ± 2.59 respectively at depth 0.00 m (surface), 23.00 ± 1.61, 68.39 ± 3.24 and 191.08 ± 3.11 respectively at depth 0.75 m, 31.52 ± 2.21, 145.37± 4.95 and 375.56 ± 5.50 respectively at 1.50 m and lastly 28.57±1.70, 95.61 ± 3.71 and 181.10 ± 3.94 respectively at 2.25 m depth. The world average activity concentrations for 226Ra, 232Th and 40K are given to be 35 Bqkg-1, 30 Bqkg-1 and 400 Bqkg-1 respectively (UNSCEAR 2000). 232Th showed  higher average values than the world’s average while averages of 226Ra and 40K were lower but most of the activity concentration values obtained in some of the locations are higher than the world’s average values, especially 226Raand 232Th in the soil samples.

GEOMORPHOLOGICAL MAPPING OF PART OF THE NIGER DELTA, NIGERIA USING DEM AND MULTISPECTRAL IMAGERY
Authors: ODUNUGA S. , RAJI S. A.
Published: August 2021

This study utilised geo-information technology to carry out a geomorphological mapping of a part of the Niger Delta. Satellite image analysis was based on bi-annual seasonal approach using a combination of visual analysis of the geometry, site, situation, colour, and season for analysis of the non-topographic features. The study also utilised virtual and onsite fieldworks and existing geomorphologic information to interpret and analyse topographic and bathymetric features. First-order topographic features (elevation) and second level features including slope, aspect, curvature and mathematically exaggerated shaded relief were extracted from DEM. Relief classification was based on average elevation differences, hill shade, slope, and aspect. Three main non-topographic landforms were identified; the permanent rivers with stable meanders, perennially-active systems of creeks and fluvial landforms including scroll bars and oxbows. With the exception of higher elevation values towards the north-western fringe, the elevation ranges between mean sea level and 1 metre above sea level thus establishing a somewhat flat terrain. These areas were filled with meandering streams, sinuous creeks and watercourses flanked by mangrove vegetation.  In the north-western area, elevation rose close to approximately 4 metres in most of the area with a peak of 10 metres.  Generally, the cumulative area-slope analysis yielded a deltaic plain with generalised slope ≤ 20. Overall two elevation-based geographically differentiated morphological units were identified; tidal mudflats and saltmarshes. The study recommends that to provide needed information for resource planning and management, further investigation should be carried out with a view to modelling probable ecological and geomorphological changes in the entire Niger Delta.

Authors: ODEDARA O. O. , ODEBODE A. C. , HUGHES J. A.
Published: August 2021

A virus-infected leaf of Mucuna pruriens was collected and tested for an incidence of a virus through biological properties using various plant host range inoculation tests, longevity-in-vitro, dilution-end-point, thermal-inactivation point and electron microscopy. Results of host range inoculation tests showed the following plant species to be susceptible to the virus; Nicotiana tabacum, N. rustica, N. benthamiana, N. glutinosa, N. occidentalis, N. Sylvesris (Speg and Comes) and others.

No plant in the family Convolvulacaee, Cucurbitaceae was found to be infected with the virus.  However Chenopodium quinoa and C. murale in the family Chenopodiaceae were infected with symptoms of mottling and necrotic lesions.  In the family Fabaceae, hybrid cowpea line TVu 76, IT84S – 2114 were infected with mosaic, leaf crinkling and severe leaf curl respectively. The virus had a dilution-end-point of 10-6-10-7, thermal-inactivation-point of 95°C in crude sap of TVu 76. The virus is of agricultural importance because of its incidence on seed coats of legumes which are freely exchanged between agricultural stakeholders.
Measurement report: Source characteristics of water-soluble organic carbon in PM2.5 at two sites in Japan, as assessed by long-term observation and stable carbon isotope ratio
Authors: Suto Nana , Kawashima Hiroto
Published: August 2021

Abstract. The sources and seasonal trends of water-soluble organic carbon (WSOC) in carbonaceous aerosols are of significant interest. From July 2017 to July 2019, we collected samples of PM2.5 (particulate matter, aerodynamic diameter<2.5 µm) from one suburban and one rural site in Japan. The average δ13CWSOC was -25.2±1.1 ‰ and -24.6±2.4 ‰ at the suburban site and rural site, respectively. At the suburban site, the δ13CWSOC was consistent with the δ13C of burned C3 plants, and a high correlation was found between WSOC concentrations and non-sea-salt potassium concentrations; these results suggest that the main source of WSOC at this site was biomass burning of rice straw. At the rural site, the average δ13CWSOC was significantly heavier from autumn to spring (-23.9±2.1 ‰) than in summer (-27.4±0.7 ‰) (p<0.01). The δ13CWSOC from autumn to spring was consistent with that of biomass burning of rice straw, whereas that in summer was considered to reflect mainly the formation of secondary organic aerosols from biogenic volatile organic compounds (VOCs). The heaviest δ13CWSOC (-21.3±1.9 ‰) was observed from February to April 2019, which may be explained by long-range transport of C4 plant burning such as corn from overseas. Thus, the present study indicates that δ13CWSOC is potentially useful for elucidating the sources and atmospheric processes that contribute to seasonal variations of WSOC concentration.
The History of Eduard Pernkopf’s "Topographische Anatomie des Menschen"
Authors: Williams David J.
Published: August 2021

This historical article by Professor David Williams first appeared in the Journal of Biocommunication in 1988. Based on the author's own experiences with Pernkopf illustrator Franz Batke in 1980 and 1981, the article offered the first historical overview of Eduard Pernkopf’s "Topographische Anatomie des Menschen." The author offers insight into the personal lives and unique work of the Pernkopf illustrators. The Editors wish to thank David for allowing the Journal to republish this seminal article.

Original 1988 Abstract:Frequently misunderstood because of the history of the time in which it was produced, Eduard Pernkopf's Topographische Anatomie des Menschen nevertheless represents the pinnacle of color anatomic illustration. The more than 800 magnificent watercolor paintings of human anatomy found in Pernkopf's atlas occupied a number of Viennese artists for three decades. This article closely examines the work and its creators.
Before and After I Knew: Disclosure, Respect, Gratitude, and Solemnity
Authors: Mackinnon Susan E. , Yee Andrew
Published: August 2021

The Pernkopf anatomical atlas has contributed significantly to the specialty of nerve surgery through its infiltration in surgical training and the development of novel procedures due to the accurate depiction of the nervous system. Until the recent advancements of the Pernkopf controversy, nerve surgeons have struggled with the ethical dilemma presented with its use in surgery and clinical practice. In this article, we explore a personal story and reflection by an individual nerve surgeon, their contribution to the advancement of the Pernkopf controversy, and how different professional domains (surgery, anatomy, ethics, religion, and education) were able to collaborate to address the historical crimes against humanity and issues in the anatomical sciences. This required a structured approach to address this ethical dilemma in surgery, which included (1) an assessment of the use of the Pernkopf atlas in specific surgical specialties (nerve surgery and oral and maxillofacial surgery) and (2) the development of a graduated ethical framework with a religious framework (the Vienna Protocol), if the Pernkopf atlas was to be used in surgery. These studies are reviewed in the context of evolving paradigms in nerve surgery (nerve repair, grafting, and transfers) and influence of anatomy in the advancement of this surgical specialty.

İSLAMİ SOSYAL HİZMET UYGULAMALARI: ENDONEZYA ÖRNEĞİNDE MÜSLÜMAN FAALİYETLERİ
Authors: ADİ Fahrudin
Published: August 2021

İnsanların refahını artırmayı amaçlayan her sosyal etkinlik, aktörlerin kim olduğuna ve hangi yaklaşım veya yöntemi kullandıklarına bakılmaksızın önemlidir. Endonezya'da bu tür faaliyetler, genellikle Kyai, Üstad veya din görevlileri tarafından kullanılan camiler, gayri resmi İslami eğitim kurumu olan pesantrenler (medreseler) aracılığıyla yürütülmektedir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, Endonezyalı Müslümanlar tarafından bireylerin, ailelerin ve toplumun ihtiyaçlarını karşılamalarına ve sorunlarını çözmelerine yardımcı olmak amacıyla yürütülen faaliyetleri araştırmak ve kaydetmektir. Çalışmada nitel araştırma yöntemlerinden görüşme yöntemi ve kaynak taraması yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Birincil kaynakları dini önderler ve faaliyetlere katılan kişilerle yapılan görüşmeler, ikincil kaynakları ise konuyla ilgili daha önce yapılan araştırma raporları ve ilgili dokümanlar oluşturmuştur. Çalışmada Muhammediye, Dompet Zuafa, Pondok Remaja-Yayasan İnabah ve Mescid Terminal olmak üzere dört tür İslami organizasyon incelenmiştir. Çalışma sonuçları, Müslümanlar tarafından başlatılan “sosyal hizmet” faaliyetlerinin sosyal rehabilitasyon, güçlendirme, koruma ve sigorta gibi hemen hemen tüm sosyal refah alanlarında yer aldığını göstermektedir.

Dört olgu ile örneklendirilen bu faaliyetler, sosyal refah sorunlarını ele almayı amaçlamaktadır. Bahse konu sorunlardan kaynaklanan hemen tüm problemlerin finansal çözümünde zekât, infak, sadaka veya vakıflardan yararlanıldığı görülmektedir. Bu çalışmada incelenen dört olgu Endonezya’da sürdürülen İslami sosyal hizmet faaliyetleri hakkında yaklaşık bir perspektif sunabilmektedir. Bu faaliyetler sırasında edinilen Müslüman deneyimleri, kökleri yerel geleneklere dayanan profesyonel sosyal hizmet uygulamalarını zenginleştirmek ve geliştirmek için oldukça değerlidir.
DİN EĞİTİMİ İLKE VE YÖNTEMLERİ AÇISINDAN HUCURAT SURESİ
Authors: GÜDÜRÜ Fatih
Published: August 2021

Genel olarak bakıldığında eğitim bireyde davranış değişikliği meydana getirme süreci olarak tanımlanır. Bu süreç içerisinde asıl olan davranış değişikliğinin istendik yönde olup olmamasıdır. Davranış değişikliğinin istendik yönde olması için de yöntem ve tekniklerin iyi bilinmesi elzemdir.

Eğitim insanlık tarihi kadar eski bir etkinlik olmakla birlikte yaş, cinsiyet ve insanın kişiliğine göre farklı anlamlar yüklenebilen ve mahiyeti değişebilen bir kavramdır. Bu itibarla eğitimde ister formal ister informal olsun yöntem arayışı mutlaka kendini göstermiştir. Bu nedenle eğitimde Neyi? Nasıl yapmalı? sorusuna yanıt aranmalı, sağlam örnek ve kaynaklardan istifade edilmelidir. Din eğitimi açısından bakıldığında mutlak kaynak elbette Allah’ın ilahi kelamı olan Kur’an’dır. Kur’an’ın indiriliş süreci düşünüldüğünde baştan sona bir eğitim unsuru olduğu, Müslümanların davranışlarını tedrici olarak değiştirdiği bilinen bir gerçekliktir. O halde Kur’an’ın hem din eğitimi hem de din eğitimi ilke ve yöntemleri konusunda kaynak olduğu ifade edilmelidir. Bu nedenle özellikle eğitim konusunun yanında eğitim yöntemleri açısından da Kur’an iyi irdelenmeli ve eğitici yönlerinden istifade edilmelidir.

Bu düşüncelerle çalışmada amacımız Kur’an surelerinden biri olan Hucurat suresinde hangi din eğitimi ilke ve yöntemlerinin, nasıl kullanıldığını tespit etmektir. Çalışmamızın ilk bölümünde kuramsal çerçeve çizilmiştir. İkinci bölümde ise Hucurat suresinde başvurulan din eğitimi ilkeleri ve yöntemleri tespit edilerek bunların nasıl kullanıldığı hakkında bilgi verilmiştir. Sonuç itibariyle de söz konusu surede kullanılan eğitim ilke ve yöntemlerinin günümüze hitap eden yönleri üzerinde durulmuştur.
KATILIM BANKACILIĞI VE İSLAMİ FİNANS SEKTÖRÜNDE TEMEL SORUNLARIN ÇÖZÜMÜ
Authors: EFE Ahmet
Published: August 2021

İslami bankacılık uzun süredir uygulanmakta olmasında rağmen ancak son on yıllarda gereken ilgiyi ve yüksek popülerliği almaya başlamıştır. Özellikle İslami finansmanda çok önemli bir yeri olan risk sermayesi, üretimde katılımcı ve sürdürülebilir bir ortamı oluşturması nedeniyle reel ekonomiye güç vermekle birlikte, risksiz bir şekilde faizli krediyle paradan para kazanmayı kaldırmaktadır. Bu yönüyle faiz düzenindeki risksiz getiriyi temsil eden ve sosyo-ekonomik sorunlara yol açan “sen çalış ben yiyeyim” yaklaşımı reddedilmiş olmaktadır. Dünyanın her yerinden İslami esaslara göre faaliyet gösteren bu bankalar sadece İslam ülkelerinde değil, gelişmiş batılı ülkelerde de oldukça büyük bir ilgi görmektedirler. Ancak örnek niteliğindeki ilerlemelere ve başarılara rağmen, çeşitli temel kavramlar ve uygulamalarla ilgili birtakım tartışmalar halen devam etmektedir. Bu çalışmamızda İslami bakış açısıyla katılım bankacılığı, faizsiz bankacılık ve kullandıkları yöntemler ile ilgili inceleme bilişim sistemleri bağlamıyla birlikte yapılmaktadır. İslami katılım bankacılığının reel ekonomiyi güçlendirme, gelir dağılımını iyileştirme ve ekonomik şoklara karşı direnci güçlendirme noktasında iyileştirici fonksiyonları olduğu da ortaya konulmaktadır. İddiamız, İslam ekonomisinin temel aktörü olan katılım bankacılığının İslami öğretiye uygun bir şekilde kurgulanması ve akıllı finansal yönetim bilişim sistemleri (YBS) uygulamalarıyla entegre bir şekilde şeffaf olarak işletilmesi durumunda ekonomideki bilinirliği ve yapıcı etkisinin çok daha ileri düzeyde gerçekleşeceğidir. Katılım bankacılığının, tahkiki gerçek iman, İslami kurallar ve Dünyadaki başarılı uygulama örneklerinin tecrübeleri doğrultusunda yapılabilecek yeni teknik ve hukuki düzenlemelerle hak ettiği yerini alması mümkün olabilecektir.

Objective: The aim of this study was to examine the sociodemographic characteristics, psychiatric diagnoses and factors associated with psychiatric diagnoses of children and adolescents who are victims of sexual abuse. Method: The files of 92 children and adolescents aged between 0-18 who were referred to University Hospital Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Forensic Policlinic between January 2017 and December 2019 due to sexual abuse were evaluated retrospectively. Psychiatric diagnoses of the cases were made according to DSM 5 diagnostic criteria. Intellectual capacity of the cases was evaluated according to the latest verison of Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children. Results: In our study, 78 (84.8%) cases were female and 14 (15.2%) were male. Mean age of the cases was 14.1±3.88 years. The most common type of sexual abuse was touching (52.2%, n=48). There was a psychiatric diagnose in 50 (54.3%) of them. The most common psychiatric diagnoses were posttraumatic stress disorder (n=29, 31.5%) and major depressive disorder (n=25, 27.2%). The rate of psychiatric diagnosis was significantly higher in cases exposed to coercion and violence (p=0.032). In 32 cases (34.8%), it was determined that the abuser was within the family. Conclusion: Sexual abuse has an effect on child’s development throughout life.In our study, the rate of psychiatric diagnosis was high. It is very important to provide the necessary psychiatric support to the victims of sexual abuse. With the studies to be done in this area, awareness can be increased and necessary precautions can be taken.

Published: August 2021

Objective: The risk of severe respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection with significant morbidity and mortality is greatest in patients with hemodynamically significant congenital heart disease (hs-CHD). The humanized monoclonal antibody, palivizumab, was used as prophylaxis for RSV infection in children <24 months of age suffering from hs-CHD. We performed this study to evaluate the effects of RSV prophylaxis with palivizumab on the weight percentiles of infants with hs-CHD. Methods: During the RSV seasons between 2013 and 2017, children <24 months of age with hs-CHD who received ≥3 doses of palivizumab prophylaxis were included in this study. All patients were evaluated according to their weight percentiles examined at birth, at the first, and the last dose of palivizumab prophylaxis. The third percentile was accepted as the cut-off value of the lower weight percentile, and values below the 25th percentile were accepted as poorly controlled hs-CHD. Results: Sixty-one infants aged between 10 days and 15 months were included in the study. The infants received the first dose of palivizumab at the age of 5 months, and all infants received 4.56±0.78 injections on an average. The number of patients weighing lower than the 25th percentile at the first, and the last dose of palivizumab were 36 (59 %) and 29 (47.5 %), respectively. A statistically significant difference was found between weight percentiles of infants at the first and the last dose of palivizumab (p<0.05). Discussion and conclusion: RSV prophylaxis with palivizumab affects weight percentiles positively, and it may help to reduce the hospitalization rate due to RSV infections in infants with hs-CHD.

Currently, the use of internet-connected applications for storage by different organizations have rapidly increased with the vast need to store data, cybercrimes are also increasing and have affected large organizations and countries as a whole with highly sensitive information, countries like the United States of America, United Kingdom and Nigeria. Organizations generate a lot of information with the help of digitalization, these highly classified information are now stored in databases via the use of computer networks. Thus, allowing for attacks by cybercriminals and state-sponsored agents. Therefore, these organizations and countries spend more resources analyzing cybercrimes instead of preventing and detecting cybercrimes. The use of network forensics plays an important role in investigating cybercrimes; this is because most cybercrimes are committed via computer networks. This paper proposes a new approach to analyzing digital evidence in Nigeria using a proactive method of forensics with the help of deep learning algorithms - Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) to proactively classify malicious packets from genuine packets and log them as they occur.
