Authors: Abdullah Nooriha , Basir Faziatul Amillia Mohamad , Ariffin Azitadoly Mohd , Yusuff Nur Diyana , Hidayah Siti Nur
Published: June 2020

A will is a financial management instrument after one’s death. Majority of Muslims in Malaysia are aware and familiar with the term Islamic ‘will’. However, the number of Muslims who write a will is very low.  Studies have concluded, the reluctance factors to write a will were due to a) lack of knowledge, b) religious factor and c) financial obligation. Therefore, it is the interest of the researchers to investigate the relationships of these three contributing factors towards will adoption among urban Muslim community in Klang Valley. The paper adopts a quantitative method of research design, which utilises descriptive analysis, correlation analysis and regression analysis to analyse the raw data. The results show all the independent variables have positive relationship with the dependent variable, in particular a strong significant relationship for knowledge. Thus, the paper suggests that any Muslims who are aware and has knowledge should write a will regardless of their age. In addition, writing a will before one’s death provides a peace of mind to that person.

Empirical analysis of factors influencing the public health expenditure in Malaysia
Authors: Yap Kok Wooi , Selvaratnam Doris Padmini
Published: June 2020

This study aims to investigate the determinants of public health expenditure in Malaysia. An Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) approach proposed by Pesaran & Shin (1999) and Pesaran et al. (2001) is applied to analyse annual time series data during the period from 1970 to 2017. The study focused on four explanatory variables, namely per capita gross domestic product (GDP), healthcare price index, population aged 65 years and above, as well as infant mortality rate. The bounds test results showed that the public health expenditure and its determinants are cointegrated. The empirical results revealed that the elasticity of government health expenditure with respect to national income is less than unity, indicating that public health expenditure in Malaysia is a necessity good and thus the Wagner’s law does not exist to explain the relationship between public health expenditure and economic growth in Malaysia. In the long run, per capita GDP, healthcare price index, population aged more than 65 years, and infant mortality rate are the important variables in explaining the behaviour of public health expenditure in Malaysia. The empirical results also prove that infant mortality rate is significant in influencing public health spending in the short run. It is noted that macroeconomic and health status factors assume an important role in determining the public health expenditure in Malaysia and thus government policies and strategies should be made by taking into account of these aspects.

Published: June 2020

This paper aims to investigate the impact of liberalisation move by Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM) towards the efficiency of domestic and foreign Islamic banks (IBs) in Malaysia. This is consequence of decision of BNM that awarded licenses to three international IBs, namely Kuwait Finance House (KFH), Al Rajhi Bank, and Asian Finance Bank in 2005. In addition, this study takes into consideration the existing foreign banks in the country that operate via Islamic banking subsidiaries as part of foreign IBs. The research evaluates the impact of foreign Islamic banks in Malaysia by measuring their contribution to the growth of the Malaysian Islamic banking industry. Using a sample of 16 IBs in Malaysia from 2008 to 2015, the study uses Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) in measuring the efficiency level of each bank and comparative between the performance of domestic and foreign IBs in the country. The paper also employs the Malmquist Productivity Index to gauge the changes in its components between the same subjects and timeframe. The DEA results showed that the domestic Islamic banks are considered more efficient than most domestic Islamic banks outperforming the foreign Islamic banks. Banks like Hong Leong Islamic, Maybank Islamic, Public Islamic, and RHB Islamic are considered among the top performers for technical efficiency and scale efficiency. The study also found that based on the Malmquist Productivity Index, the least efficient banks based on DEA have improved in technical efficiency, technology, and total factor productivity (TFP).

Práticas contracartográficas artísticas e a desestabilização dos mapas | Artistic countercartographic practices and the destabilization of maps
Authors: Goldschmidt Kiminami Cristina Akemi , Sperling David Moreno
Published: June 2020

Este artigo tem o propósito de discutir tópicos que circundam a cartografia por meio de práticas que apontam para o sentido inverso das cartografias hegemônicas, e que permitem uma visualização crí­tica de tensionamentos do atual contexto hiperme­diado. Sob o conceito de contracartografia definido por Brian Holmes, apresenta duas práticas artísticas realizadas com o uso de mídias locativas, Meridians, de Jeremy Wood, e Monochromatic Landscapes, de Laura Kurgan. Como parte de um conjunto maior de proposições artísticas contemporâneas que inves­tigam práticas contracartografias, esses trabalhos procuram desnaturalizar as formas com que operam as mídias locativas e os sistemas de geolocalização, assim como colocar em questão a pretensa neutra­lidade dos mapas. Por fim, indica-se que as modu­lações de visibilidades e invisibilidades com que operam os meios informacionais e de geolocalização apresentam-se como aspectos relevantes a serem investigados e tensionados com lentes críticas.
Machado de Assis, leitor de Homero
Authors: Martins Edson Ferreira
Published: June 2020

No presente estudo, analiso a produção ficcional do escritor Machado de Assis relativa à década de 1870, quando o autor brasileiro, após ter-se dedicado à poesia e ao teatro, estreou no gênero romance, produzindo quatro obras no período: Ressurreição (1872), A mão e a luva (1874), Helena (1876) e Iaiá Garcia (1878). Focalizando o tema dos diálogos (Bakhtin, 2002 [1929]) que o autor estabelece em sua narrativa com as literaturas grega e romana produzidas na Antiguidade Clássica, objetivo demonstrar que, dentre os modelos destas matrizes que Machado versou continuadamente como autor-leitor, destaca-se o nome de Homero e os poemas épicos atribuídos a ele. Durante a análise das obras selecionadas, demonstro como a escolha das cenas homéricas imitadas, sobretudo da Ilíada, pelo futuro autor das Memórias Póstumas é importante para a construção de sua poética de revalorização da imitatio e da aemulatio que, aliada à sua visão aguda dos problemas sociais brasileiros, revoluciona a forma de se pensar o projeto de concepção de uma literatura nacional, em pleno contexto de ebulição do Romantismo, atravessando os limites desta escola e apontando saídas para a sua superação.

This study aims to determine the effect of various preliminary treatments on the quality characteristics of ubi gadung’s starch (Dioscorea hispida dennst) and to find out the preliminary treatment that can produce ubi gadung starch with the best quality. This study used a randomized block design (RBD) with four preliminary treatments including water immersion, 10% NaCl, 15% NaCl and 0.3% Na Metabisulfite, which were repeated twice. The parameters tested were water content, starch content, yield and sensory including plural color comparisons. Data were analyzed using ANOVA and continued with Duncan's (? = 0.5%). The results showed that each preliminary treatment had no significant effect on each parameter observed, and the best results were in the 15% NaCl immersion treatment. The 15% NaCl immersion method produces starch with a moisture content of 8.50%, starch content of 14.35%, yield of 12.52%, and multiple color comparison test at score 5 with the most frequency (closest to R = 4)

Cocoa pod husk is a waste of cocoa processing that is large enough and has not been used optimally. Cocoa pod husk waste can be used more optimally by extracting polyphenols compounds and used as natural antioxidants. This research aims to determine the effect of comparison of materials with solvents and maceration time against cocoa pod husk extracts as a source of antioxidants as well as to determine the material comparison with the solvent and the best maceration time for produce cocoa pod husk extract as a source of antioxidants. The study uses a random design of a group of two factors. The first factor is the comparison of materials with solvents consisting of 1:10, 1:15 and 1:20. The second factor is the maceration time consisting of 24, 36 and 48 hours. The data was analyzed its diversity and continued with the Tukey test. The results of the study showed a comparison of material with solvent and maceration time was very influential to the yield, total phenolic and antioxidant capacity of cocoa pod husk extract. The interaction between treatment is very influential on the total phenolic and antioxidant capacity but has no effect on the cocoa pod husk extract yield. The best treatment to produce cocoa pod husk extract as a source of antioxidant is the comparison of materials with solvent 1:20 and maceration time for 48 hours with a yield characteristic 3.10 ± 0.36 percent, total phenolic at 146.67 ± 5.14 mg GAE/g and antioxidant capacity 97.00 ± 2.22 mg GAEAC/g.

This research aimed to determine the ability of each bacterial isolate to produce ethanol, isolate and characterize bacteria that have the ability to produce potential ethanol from lau and air in the Arak Industry of environment in the Tri Eka Buana Village, Sidemen District, Karangasem Bali. Samples were obtained from 3 Hamlets in Tri Eka Buana Village. Bacteria were taken from lau before fermentation, during fermentation, and after fermentation. Bacteria from air were taken from the fermentation, distillation, and under the coconut tree and the variation of time is 15, 30, and 60 minutes of exposure. Bacteria from lau were isolated by growing on growth media, periodically (after 30, 60, 90, 120, and 150 seconds) the isolates were taken from suspension to be inoculated in growth media for gas production. Isolation was carried out using YEPD-fluconazole media to obtain pure isolates. The fluconazole concentration used was 0,2 g/L. Pure isolates were then carried out qualitative tests for gas production and quantitative tests with alcohol oxidation reactions. The results of UV-Visible spectrophotometry, there were 6 best isolates and then fermented in YEPD media on a scale of 900 mL for 10 days. The fermentation results were then distilled using a reflux distilator. BU3.111E1 isolates are determind the best isolates with 8,50% brix ethanol.

Authors: Pamukçu Özge , Ay Derya , Üzüm Kazım , Barlakketi Didem , Köse Mehmet , Baykan Ali , Sunkak Süleyman , Narin Nazmi
Published: June 2020

Background and Objectives. Kallistatin, a serine proteinase inhibitor, exerts its effect by vascular repair, angiogenesis inhibition, strong vasodilation, inhibition of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), antiinflammation, and anti-apoptosis. We hypothesized as to whether it has a protective role in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH).
Methods. The study included 5 subgroups (78 patients; 44 male): Eisenmenger syndrome (n=16), PAH with left to right shunt (n=20), idiopathic PAH (n=7), patients with left to right shunt without PAH (n=19), and patients with innocent heart murmur (n=16). Physical examination, chest radiography, electrocardiography, and transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) were performed for each patient. PAH diagnosis was confirmed by catheterization. Serum kallistatin, tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), Interleukin-10 (IL-10) and N-terminal pro b-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) levels were studied for each patient.
Results. The lowest median kallistatin value was found in Eisenmenger syndrome: 1.19 (0.87-3.30) μg/ml. The highest value belonged to control group with innocent murmur: 2.89 (1.19-5.66) μg/ml. Serum levels of kallistatin were significantly lower in patients with PAH (p < 0.05). TNF-α values were increased and IL-10 values were decreased in pulmonary hypertension. However; no correlation was found between kallistatin levels and cytokines.
Conclusions. Kallistatin may have a protective effect in pulmonary arterial hypertension by repairing vascular damage, inhibition of angiogenesis, strong vasodilator effect, inhibiting VEGF, and anti-inflammatory mechanism of action. To our knowledge, our study is the first one that shows the role of kallistatin in pulmonary hypertension. Kallistatin may represent a promising novel therapeutic approach for pulmonary hypertension in the near future.
Congenital myotonia: a review of twenty cases and a new splice-site mutation in the CLCN1 gene
Authors: Özgün Nezir , Taşlıdere Hasan
Published: June 2020

Background and Objectives. Congenital Myotonia (CM) is a disease caused by mutations in the skeletal muscle chloride channel gene (CLCN1). Mutations can be transmitted as autosomal dominant (Thomsen's disease) or recessive (Becker's disease). CM is more common in men and Becker myotonia may be 10 times more common than Thomsen myotonia. Genotypic and phenotypic characteristics of CM may vary according to geographical region and ethnicity.
Method. In this study, we present the genotypic and phenotypic characteristics of 20 Turkish CM patients all diagnosed by molecular genetic testing. The clinical and laboratory features of the patients with mutation in CLCN1 gene were retrospectively analyzed.
Results. Eleven of the patients were female. c.1064+1G > A splice-site change, p.Arg338X (c.1012 C > T) stop codon, p.Gly190Ser (c.568_569delinsTC) missense mutations were detected. Eight of the 20 patients were found to be compatible with Becker type and 12 with Thomsen type, based on mode of inheritance, neurological examination findings and genetic test results.
Conclusion. The c.1064+1G > A splice-site change mutation, defined for the first time in this study, expands the spectrum of mutations in the CLCN1 gene. Thomsen type and female gender were observed to be more frequent in this series of patients from Turkey.

Authors: Soyer Tutku , Gördü Bilge , Türer Özlem Boybeyi , Oğuz Berna
Published: June 2020

Background. Pyloroduodenal intussusception (PDI) due to gastric and pyloric polyps is very rare and has not been reported previously in children.
Case. A 3 year-old boy was admitted with non-bilious vomiting and abdominal distention. Abdominal X-ray showed gastric air-fluid level and ultrasonography showed 5 cm intussusception at right upper quadrant. Upper gastrointestinal study showed gastric outlet obstruction. Multiple polyps at stomach and pylorus were detected in endoscopy. The explorative laparotomy revealed polyps originating from pylorus passing to duodenum and causing PDI. The polyps were excised to reduce the intussusception via duodenotomy.
Conclusion. PDI and pyloric polyps should be kept in mind in cases with radiological examinations revealing gastric outlet obstruction.

Published: June 2020

Background. Eczema herpeticum (EH) is an acute disseminated viral infection that develops in the presence of an existing skin lesion, often on the ground of atopic dermatitis (AD). Morbidity and mortality of EH can be minimized by starting antiviral therapy at the earliest time in diagnosis.
Case. Herein we report five infants diagnosed with EH in the course of AD treatment. All patients had early onset, moderate to severe AD and needed intermittent topical corticosteroid (TCS) therapy. In physical examination, newly formed, TCS-resistant vesiculo-papular skin lesions were recognised on the present dermatitis. The presence of AD with food allergy and moderate to severe eosinophilia were other prominent findings.
Conclusion. All patients were misdiagnosed as AD exacerbation. Therefore, EH should be considered in the differential diagnosis of AD exacerbation especially in the infants with moderate to severe AD.
The study of relationship between adolescents’ suicidal behavior and learning achievements
Authors: Azimova Aygun Sulhiddin
Published: June 2020

The main focus of the article is on the study of relationship between teaching achievements and the manifestations of suicidal behavior –depression, aggression and anxiety. The study was conducted with 302 adolescents studying in Baku and Ganja.One of the main hypotheses of the study was the relationship between student achievement and depression, mental state and suicidal risk.It is believed that there is an inverse relationship between students’ learning achievement and the three characteristics mentioned. That is, if these three features are at high level, it will negatively affect students’ academic achievement and the students’ academic achievement will be low. The study showed that there is a positive correlation between adolescents’ learning activities, including their achievements, and suicidal behavior. The correlation coefficient between all three features is significant at 0.01. That is, in all three tables, P = 0.000, which indicates that the relationship is significant at the level of 0.01. We believe that it is possible to reduce this dependence by overcoming the depressive state and directing the mental state in a positive direction.
Humanitarian Interventions as Practises of Statecraft: Re-Crafting State Sovereignty in Refugee Crises
Authors: Soguk Nevzat
Published: June 2020

This study argues that humanitarian interventions are not undertaken merely to alleviate the sufferings of people under duress such as refugees. Beyond humanitarianism, they are activities of statist governance-practices of statecraft oriented to re-articulate and re-craft state sovereignty and the hierarchy it signifies, that is, the hierarchy of citizen/nation/state, not only as natural but also as necessary to the peaceful, stable, and secure organization of local and global politics. In as much as humanitarian interventions target refugees as objects of intervention, they appropriate refugees to the task of statecraft; refugees become not only the manifestation of the difficulties for the sovereign state, but also the site of statist practices, which, attendant upon refugees, endeavour continuously to re-articulate the state-centric imagination of life possibilities in local and global interactions. In the process, humanitarianism is typically subordinated to the contingencies of statism in the late 20th Century.
Refugees and Collective Action: A Case Study of the Association of Dispersed Guatemalan Refugees
Authors: Wolfensohn Galit
Published: June 2020

The paper traces the organizational development of the Association of Dispersed Guatemalan Refugees (ardigua), a grassroots, self-settled Guatemalan refugee organization, in an attempt to understand the dynamics of popular mobilization in exile. It examines the challenges faced by the more vulnerable and institutionally marginalized self-settled refugees in their efforts to secure rights as refugees and as returning Guatemalans. It argues that the collective mobilization of self-settled refugees was facilitated by political opportunities external to ardigua, as well as by resources—material and discursive—that the association mobilized. The paper draws attention to the role that self-settled refugees can play as political actors in the wider process of peace and democratization, and argues that the impact of their efforts is significant (beyond their immediate material success) to the extent to which they articulate their traditionally marginalized concerns in politically and institutionally consequential forums. In this way, they contribute to the expansion and democratization of public discourse, and help to widen spaces in which the excluded can actively engage as social and political actors.
