Published: December 2022

Digestive endoscopy is experiencing a whole new era with the introduction of artificial intelligence. It is a very wide field of application, from upper to lower digestive endoscopy. Several systems have already emerged, whether for oesophago-gastro-duodenal fibroscopy, video-capsule endoscopic small bowel, and colonoscopy or hepatobiliary exploration. Morocco is considered a hub for Africa in the field of artificial intelligence; however the place of the latter in digestive endoscopy is still unclear.

Published: December 2022

Gout is a microcrystalline arthropathy resulting from the deposition of sodium urate microcrystals in the articular and periarticular tissues, and even in the extra-articular tissues. It affects mainly men and its mechanism is at the origin of a delay in diagnosis, and consequently its severe forms can occur. We report a case of tophaceous gout in a 59 year old adult, with no family history of gout. Gout, whose first attack was at the age of 40, was polyarticular and affected the left wrist, elbows, knees, ankles and the left big toe. The diagnosis was based on clinical signs (tophi at the elbows, ankles, hands, and auricles) and paraclinical signs ( hyperuricemia at 620 ʯmol/l With normal at150-360 ʯmol/l in women and 310-420 ʯmol/l in men, presence of sodium urate cristals in the puncture fluid of the right knee, double- contour image on ultrasonography) by the ACR/Eular classification criteria. The background treatment was based on 120mg of Febuxostat per day with a favorable follow-up marked by the regression of signs.

Background: Acute pancreatitis in children typically presents differently and has a different course than in adults. Objective: To evaluate the association, clinical profile & biochemical evidence of childhood acute pancreatitis. Method: This cross-sectional study was done in the Department of Pediatrics Dhaka Medical College Hospital, Dhaka, Bangladesh during January 2019 to July 2022. Total 65 children below 12 year of age having diagnostic criteria of acute pancreatitis made by INSPPIRE group were included in this study. Results: Children examined had a mean age of 8.1 3.2 years, with 35 (53.8%) being boys. The majority of patients presented with abdominal discomfort. The epigastric area was the most prevalent site of discomfort (82%), affecting 55 people (84.6%). Before being admitted, the average patient had been in agony for 3.4 2.2 days. Fifty (76.0%) patients presented with vomiting, 22 (33.8%) cases presented with fever, 5.7 (7.7%) cases presented with shock, and 3.4 (4.6%) cases presented with melena. Leukocytosis was detected in 32% of patients, whereas elevated blood lipase and amylase levels were found in 89% and 72% of patients, respectively, according to laboratory testing. We detected biochemical abnormalities including hypokalemia (8, or 12.3%), elevated ALT (6, 9.2%), hypocalcemia (5, or 7.7%), and elevated triglycerides (3, 4.6%). In 40 (61.5%) individuals, positive ultrasonographic results were seen. Four patients (6.2%) had pancreatic pseudocysts, while three patients (4.6%) had pancreatic necrosis.

Authors: Iglesias Rouco Lena S. , Matesanz del Barrio José
Published: December 2022

Desde el siglo XVI, el Arzobispado y Cabildo de Burgos alimentaron el propósito de levantar una nueva sacristía en correspondencia con la solemnidad del culto que se celebraba en la Catedral. A pesar de los distintos intentos, solo se alcanza tal objetivo de forma definitiva ya avanzado el siglo XVIII. Entonces, el prestigioso maestro jerónimo Fray Antonio de San José Pontones elaboró un proyecto que se ha localizado recientemente. Y, aunque tampoco se llevó a cabo, resulta un interesante testimonio del universo en el que se movía la Seo burgalesa en el contexto del último barroco.
De Amadeo de Saboya a Beatriz Ximénez Cerdán: el pinjante relicario del Espíritu Santo al Tesoro de la Virgen del Pilar por la condesa de Contamina y marquesa de Bárboles (1695)
Authors: Ágreda Pino Ana , Naya Franco Carolina
Published: December 2022

La localización del testamento de Beatriz Ximénez Cerdán nos ha permitido identificar a la noble dama aragonesa que entregó, en 1695, un pinjante relicario en forma de Espíritu Santo al Tesoro de la Virgen del Pilar. La documentación pilarista solo nombraba la entrega de la joya por los ejecutores testamentarios de la marquesa de Bárboles. La pieza fue confundida con un águila y se ha considerado tradicionalmente como donación del rey Amadeo de Saboya. En el transcurso de los siglos se perdió la ventana del viril donde había unas pinturas de devoción, que habrían permitido redundar en su profundo significado simbólico. A día de hoy, todavía se conserva en el Museo Pilarista.

Introdução: A utilização de terapias coadjuvantes ao tratamento da DP vem apresentando significativa melhora nos casos, sendo a ozônioterapia (OT) uma delas. Na literatura a OT tem sido utilizada como antimicrobiano, imunomodulador, analgésico, reparador tecidual e anti-inflamatório.Objetivo: Tem como objetivo relatar um caso de periodontite estágio II com quadro de agudização tratado com terapia periodontal não cirúrgica associada com ozônioterapia. Relato de Caso: Paciente gênero masculino, 70 anos, diabético tipo II e hipertenso, sendo comorbidades ambas controladas compareceu a clínica de especialização em periodontia de uma faculdade queixando-se sobre uma secreção purulenta que ocorria de forma recorrente nas regiões superior e inferior. Ao exame clínico verificou-se a presença de biofilme e cálculos dentários em ambas arcadas, ausência de elementos dentários, mobilidade dentária grau III nos elementos 33, 43 e 44 e bolsas periodontais com profundidade acima de 10mm e secreção purulenta nos elementos 13, 14, 15 e 16. Após liberação médica, tratamento iniciou com irrigação de água ozonizada com concentração de 60% nas áreas de supuração e aplicação de gel ozonizado com concentração de 10% durante 7 dias, em seguida 2 sessões de raspagem não cirúrgica periodontal e irrigação de água ozonizada com concentração de 60% nas áreas das bolsas periodontais, contudo devido a não redução da profundidade de sondagem nos elementos 13, 14, 15 e 16 foi proposto raspagem em campo aberto e irrigação de água ozonizada à 60% para descontaminação das regiões.Conclusão: Conclui-se que a OT apresentou um resultado positivo como terapia coadjuvante na melhora do quadro agudo do paciente, contudo deve-se salientar a não substituição do tratamento periodontal convencional e higienização pela OT e sim a junção das três técnicas.
Catch and Kill Jurisdiction
Authors: Clopton Zachary
Published: December 2022

In catch and kill journalism, a tabloid buys a story that could be published elsewhere and then deliberately declines to publish it. In catch and kill jurisdiction, a federal court assumes jurisdiction over a case that could be litigated in state court and then declines to hear the merits through a nonmerits dismissal. Catch and kill journalism undermines the free flow of information. Catch and kill jurisdiction undermines the enforcement of substantive rights. And, importantly, because catch and kill jurisdiction relies on jurisdictional and procedural law, it is often able to achieve ends that would be politically unpalatable by other means.

Catch and kill jurisdiction is a recurrent and growing phenomenon. This Article defines catch and kill jurisdiction and identifies areas where it can be found today, including in transnational and complex cases. This Article argues that catch and kill is likely to arise when federal judges are willing and able to expand federal jurisdiction and when federal courts are hostile to certain classes of claims or litigants. It also shows how catch and kill feeds back into more catch and kill—what I call the catch and kill ratchet.

On the normative side, this Article does not argue that catch and kill is inherently wrong—indeed, some examples of catch and kill are normatively preferable. Instead, this Article argues that catch and kill jurisdiction is problematic when it relies on seeming neutrality, obscurity, and delegation to achieve deregulatory ends that might not be possible through substantive lawmaking. These concerns are exacerbated because federal judges—not legislators—are the lawmakers in catch and kill. Federalism values also are at stake when catch and kill defeats claims arising under state law. This Article’s analysis of catch and kill also helps clarify some of the issues raised by the Class Action Fairness Act, in which Congress employed a catch-and-kill-like strategy in service of deregulation.

Finally, this Article explains why it will be challenging to reverse catch and kill in gross, though there are strategies to resist catch and kill in individual cases.

БЮДЖЕТ ЧЕЧЕНСКОЙ РЕСПУБЛИКИ: МЕРЫ ПО ОПТИМИЗАЦИИ
Authors: Бисултанова А.А. , Магомадова М.М.
Published: December 2022

В статье проанализированы основные доходные источники и расходные статьи бюджета Чеченской Республики. В результате проведенного анализа выделены основные бюджетообразующие налоги, сделан вывод о том, что современная ситуация, сложившаяся в бюджетной системе Чеченской Республики, свидетельствует о том, что в республике не имеется стимулов для увеличения собственной базы доходной части бюджета. Также авторы уделили особое внимание необходимости принятия мер по минимизации рисков, связанных с ухудшением внешнеполитической ситуации в стране, предложили более тщательно отнестись к подготовке бюджетного прогноза, поскольку современная геополитическая ситуация характеризуется нестабильностью и непредсказуемостью. В дальнейшем просчеты в этом направлении будут негативно сказываться на всех направлениях социально-экономического развития региона. Также выделены правовые возможности регулирования межбюджетных отношений, подчеркнуто то, что правовые рычаги могут помочь прийти к сбалансированности бюджетов различных уровней. В результате исследования сделан акцент на необходимости налаживания процесса методического руководства организацией бюджетного процесса нижестоящего уровня бюджета; отмечен тот факт, что в довоенное время промышленность Чеченской Республики занимала ведущее место среди остальных республик Северного Кавказа. Продукция, выпускаемая предприятиями промышленности Чеченской Республики, пользовалась успехом не только на территории Российской Федерации, но и за рубежом. Следовательно, подготовка необходимого технико-экономического обоснования, разработка инвестиционных проектов и программ позволили бы ускорить процесс финансирования промышленности. Для тех предприятий, которые уже запущены, предлагается разработать мероприятия по повышению уже выпускаемой продукции, по выходу ее на новые рынки сбыта. Таким образом, совершенно очевидно, что Чеченская Республика обладает значительным потенциалом, и тот факт, что прошло много времени, а республика все еще остается в числе отсталых, свидетельствует о многом. В первую очередь, авторы признали неэффективной политику властей, иначе республика, которая замыкает рейтинги регионов по уровню дотационности, смогла бы сдвинуться на высшие позиции.
ОСОБЕННОСТИ ПРАВОВОЙ ПОДДЕРЖКИ ДЕТЕЙ-СИРОТ В АНТИЧНОМ МИРЕ
Authors: Абдулаева Э.С. , Акаев В.Х. , Штумпф С.П.
Published: December 2022

В контексте осмысления одной из актуальных проблем современности – детского сиротства, дается ретроспективный анализ данного социального феномена в эпоху античного общества, и его христианизированном продолжении – Византии. Рассматриваются социокультурные детерминанты, допускающие возможность жестокого обращения с детьми, вплоть до убийства, насилия, эксплуатации детей-сирот, являвшиеся нормой в Древнем Риме и Греции. Анализируются этапы трансформации общественного сознания в отношении сирот, характерные для византийской культуры, связанные с влиянием христианства. Показано, что именно в античной культуре были заложены правовые основы опекунства и социальной защиты детей-сирот, ставшие базисом современного законодательства. Подчеркивается, что формирование института призрения в античности, было продиктовано не столько гуманистическими мотивами, сколько прагматическими целями, целью которых было управление имуществом и предупреждение появления асоциальных элементов.

Научная статья посвящена анализу процедуры фетвотворчества, свойственного для мусульманской системы права. Приводится понятие о фетве и требования к статусу лица, выдающего фетву. Научный анализ делается с опорой на Священный Коран и Сунну Пророка Мухаммада (мир ему и благословение Аллаха), а также на базовые четыре религиозно-правовые школы исламского фикха (мазхабы). Кроме того, фетвотворческая деятельность в условиях исторической Чечни рассмотрена на примере богословской деятельности кадия Шалинского округа шейха Сугаипа-муллы. Приведены ряд условий, требований, которым должен соответствовать религиозный деятель, выносящий фетву.
В заключение статьи отмечается, что вынесение фетвы (фетвотворчество) – это очень серьезная и ответственная процедура, которая должна совершаться, опираясь на фундаментальные источники мусульманского права и достижения религиозно-правовых школ (мазхабы). Лицо, выносящее фетву, должно отвечать очень жестким требованиям. Невежество и особенно в религиозных вопросах, дает семена, из которых произрастают ростки фитны.

Published: December 2022

The work is devoted to the definition and classification of factors of investment attractiveness of the enterprise. Today, companies operate in conditions of fierce competition. Therefore, there is a need to respond quickly to changes in the environment and increase productivity. Continuous development is the key to the success of any organization. However, this process requires investment - the engine of the company's growth. The only way to raise capital and strengthen market positions is to increase the level of investment attractiveness. A necessary condition for ensuring sustainable and competitive development of enterprises is access to investment resources and the possibility of attracting them, taking into account the investment attractiveness of enterprises. It is determined that investment attractiveness is a complex concept, as it reflects the opinion of a certain group of investors on the financial resources of the enterprise, and is a set of certain objective features, properties, means and capabilities of the economic system that determines potential payment demand. An important condition for the existence of the enterprise is the ability to determine a number of qualitative factors influencing the internal and external environment on the overall level of financial condition of enterprises and the efficient use of enterprise resources. Groups of factors that directly or indirectly affect the investment attractiveness of the enterprise are identified. Attracting investment is a necessary process for the revival and achievement of a higher level of competitiveness. An investment-attractive company encourages investors to make decisions about long-term capital investments for the further development of the company and the corresponding expected return. Study and analysis of the population interacting factors of investment attractiveness in the future will allow to analyze the state of investment attractiveness of enterprises in Ukraine, which will maximize the socio-economic effect of the economy of Ukraine as a whole.
Keywords: factors, investment attractiveness, investments, investors.

Authors: HNATKIVSKYI Bohdan
Published: December 2022

The main components in the structure of economic potential of enterprises are investigated in the article. It is established that the components of the economic potential of enterprises include everything related to the formation and development of enterprises. It is emphasized that the objective components, which are related to the material forms of economic potential of enterprises, will be consumed and reproduced in various forms in the process of formation and operation. These will include, first of all, production potential, innovation potential, investment potential, reproduction potential. It is outlined that the subjective components of the economic potential of enterprises also include improvements in the field of scientific and technical potential, management potential, the potential of the organizational structure and management structure, marketing potential. Subjective formation of components is associated with their social form of detection. They are not intended for consumption, but are formed for the preconditions, namely, factors of general economic, general economic and social ones, consumption rationality of objective components. This may indicate that there are also subjective components of the potential of enterprises, which by their influence on the development of the main factors of production and the effectiveness of the economic system, according to the complexity of the latter and their environmental characteristics, will be decisive. The basis of the economic potential of business entities and the basis for the formation of innovation and investment potential of agricultural enterprises is the production potential of business entities. The production potential of enterprises is represented by a system of interdependent components that can perform various functions in the processes of ensuring the production of goods, as well as achieving other goals for continuous and competitive development of enterprises. It should be noted that only those enterprises that have the potential to develop their financial and economic activities will survive the crisis. In modern conditions, the success of each enterprise largely depends on how effectively its potential is used.
Keywords: economic potential, structure components of economic potential, potential of enterprises.

Authors: Dr. Zahid Khan  , Najeebul Haq  , Arshad Ali
Published: December 2022

The current study intends to examine the job satisfaction among the government universities’ faculty in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan. Two stage cluster random sampling is used to identify teachers for taking information. Five clusters (universities) are selected in the first stage. Then, education departments within universities are considered as clusters in the second stage of sampling. A structure questionnaire is distributed among them. The data analysed by SPSS version 19. Analysing the job satisfaction level, we find 48% of faculty members highly satisfied.  Moreover, 33% faculty members are moderate satisfied, 13% are low satisfied, 4% are un-satisfied, and 2% are highly un-satisfied. The job satisfaction level is also investigated for each university individually, and for different ages of faculty. To identify the significant factor affecting the job satisfaction level of the university’s faculty the ordinal logistic regression model is used. The model shows that salary, workload, and facilities are significantly affecting the job satisfaction of the faculty.  Considering the results of the study, it is recommended that salary of the faculty member should be high, workload should be decreases, and required facilities should be provided.

Published: December 2022

To assess the effectiveness of inductive approach for teaching grammar on grammatical awareness of student teachers was the major objective of the study. The difference between the achievement scores in grammatical awareness test of the student teachers treated with inductive grammar teaching approach and the student teachers in traditional approach group is not significant- was the major hypothesis. The study was quasi experimental in nature. Pre and post tests were conducted by using a self-developed grammar achievement test. Two class sections of BS Education were selected conveniently and randomly labelled as control and experimental group. Inductive approach for teaching grammar was applied in the experimental group whereas control group was dealt with traditional grammar teaching. Results indicated that the student teachers taught through inductive grammar teaching approach performed better in test of grammatical awareness than the student teachers taught through traditional teaching. Difference in man achievement score among high, low and average achievers in the treatment group was not significant in test of grammatical awareness. Similarly, the difference in mean achievement score was also not significant between female and male student teachers in the treatment group.

Published: December 2022

IntroduçãoA terceiroventriculostomia endoscópica (TVE) consiste em uma técnica cirúrgica cada vez mais utilizada no tratamento da hidrocefalia de múltiplas etiologias. Esse trabalho consiste em um relato de caso do uso da TVE em um paciente com hidrocefalia obstrutiva por estenose de aqueduto. Apresenta-se, ademais, fatores clínicos e radiológicos relacionados ao seu diagnóstico, assim como o respectivo manejo terapêutico cirúrgico e prognóstico.
Descrição do casoPaciente do sexo masculino, 2 anos e 1 mês de idade, com quadro de aumento progressivo do perímetro cefálico (PC) associado a retardo de desenvolvimento neuropsicomotor e crises convulsivas focais há 2 meses. A curva de PC pré-cirúrgica encontrava-se acima do percentil 97th (de acordo com classificação da OMS), fontanela bregmática hipertensa, com diâmetro de aproximadamente 4cm, porém ausência de paresia do olhar conjugado para cima. A ressonância magnética (RNM) de crânio mostrou dilatação ventricular supratentorial, com sinais de transudação ependimária e estenose de aqueduto. A terapêutica de escolha foi a realização da TVE para o tratamento da hidrocefalia, através de um acesso endoscópico ao terceiro ventrículo, criando-se uma fenestração no seu assoalho, o que permite o fluxo direto do líquor do espaço intraventricular para o subaracnóideo. Na sua evolução, o paciente demonstrou melhora clínica no pós-operatório precoce, recebendo alta hospitalar após 48h. Houve melhora progressiva no desenvolvimento neuropsicomotor, controle das crises convulsivas, fechamento da fontanela bregmática e normalização da curva de crescimento do perímetro cefálico.
Comentáriosa TVE consiste no tratamento da hidrocefalia obstrutiva, a exemplo de causas tumorais e estenose de aqueduto (mais comum), mediante acesso endoscópico ao terceiro ventrículo. É considerada uma alternativa viável ao uso da derivação ventriculoperitoneal (DVP), em casos selecionados sendo associada a melhor prognóstico tardio, menor incidência de reoperações e menor tempo de hospitalização.
ConclusãoO relato do caso descrito evidencia a eficácia da TVE no tratamento da hidrocefalia obstrutiva por estenose de aqueduto. Esse procedimento permitiu um bom desfecho clínico no pós-operatório, com a normalização em relação aos marcos do desenvolvimento neuropsicomotor e efetivo controle das crises convulsivas. Tais achados, em consonância com a literatura vigente, reforçam a eficácia desse procedimento no tratamento dessa patologia.

FOOD SAFETY CULTURE FACTORS THAT INFLUENCE ATTITUDE AND PRACTICES OF FOOD HANDLERS AT ORPHANAGES IN TERENGGANU
Authors: AA Siti Nur Maisarah , MR Abdul Wahab , Ismail Fathilah , Wan Zainal Shukri Wan Hafiz
Published: December 2022

Earlier studies suggest that foodborne illness may be related to the food safety culture of the food handlers (Griffith et al., 2010; Towns et al., 2006; Abdullah Sani and Siow, 2014). Food safety culture is a contribution of the aggregation of the prevailing, shared attitudes, value, learned belief towards hygiene behaviour in a food preparation environment (Griffith et al., 2010). Besides, in term of food safety only, it also can be related as the food that is sustained their nutritional values that are physically, microbiologically and chemically clean without any contamination (Uçar et. 2016). However, attitudes of food safety also one of the crucial factors that affect the practices of the food handlers while preparing and handling food. Towns et al. (2006) indicated that proper refrigeration and freezer food storage techniques not typically practised in their homes, even the individuals completing the survey were concerned about proper refrigeration and freezer storage practices. They also have the perception that safety of food is not a crucial thing rather than delicious food even at some point, they still assume that checking the temperature, is unnecessary things to do. Hence, it proved that they lack awareness of food safety, especially towards the proper handling of temperature. Buccheri et al. (2007), indicated that about 78.3 % of respondents have a good perception that they raw food need to be separate, and 16.0 % denied the perception. However, food handler's practices also associated with their knowledge and attitudes. Abdullah Sani and Siow (2014), reported that even 86.4 % wash their hand with soap, but there are still a few of them do not practice the knowledge. Especially for someone who is handling and preparing ready-to-eat food, they should wash their hand under hot running water with soap or any sanitizer and dry it with a clean towel instantly after finish handling the food. This practices should be emphasized daily by food handlers to avoid contamination from the pathogen. Also, based on the previous study, it proved that 29.3 % of food handlers do not separate their raw food with cook food (Egan et al., 2007). The contamination occurs according to two situations either they do not know about this knowledge, or they take it for granted. According to that statement, it shows that most of the food handlers in orphanages are lack of educational background. Based on the previous study, it showed that about 3.6 % of food handlers have no formal education background and the highest percentage of education level among food handlers are an only secondary school which are about 63.4% (Abdullah Sani and Siow, 2014). Besides, the lack of exposure to food safety among local food handlers in orphanages also might be contributing to foodborne illness, especially to the children in the orphanages.

The aim of our study was to correlate and evaluate the accuracy of Computed Tomography Urography (CTU) results with other imaging modalities in patients who presented with haematuria in 2020. Retrospectively comparison of CTU findings with ultrasound KUB(US) and cytoureteroscopy (CU) also have been made.  This is a retrospective study in which all CTU cases in a total of 186 patients with hematuria in 2020 were included in this study. The data was retrieved from the PACS system at Department of Radiology in Hospital Sultanah Nur Zahirah Kuala Terengganu. Frequency of the clinical manifestation were calculated among the patients and compared between US, CU and CTU findings. A total of 186 patients with hematuria involved in this study. Demographic data on clinical information have exhibited microscopic hematuria, calculi, hydronephrosis and renal calculi yielded higher percentage with 81.7%, 82.8%, 72.0% and 63.4%, respectively. The correlation between hematuria and US together with CTU findings was not significant with p value of 0.259. The data also revealed 133 patients (71.5%) had similar US and CTU findings. Meanwhile, 76.0% patients who underwent CU also yielded consistent findings with CTU. This study demonstrated no significant correlation between CTU - US findings in the detection of causes of hematuria. However, there was a good correlation of US and CU with CTU in a detection causes of hematuria with almost equal accuracy and sensitivity.
A ν-Support Vector Quantile Regression Model with Automatic Accuracy Control
Authors: Anand Pritam , Rastogi Reshma , Chandra Suresh
Published: December 2022

Quantile regression models have become popular among researchers these days. These models are being used frequently for obtaining the probabilistic forecast in different real-world applications. The Support Vector Quantile Regression (SVQR) model can obtain the conditional quantile estimate using kernel function in a non-parametric framework. The ϵ-SVQR model successfully incorporates the concept of the asymmetric ϵ-insensitive tube in the SVQR model and enables it to obtain a sparse and accurate solution. But, it requires a good choice of the user-defined parameter. A bad choice of ϵ value may result in poor predictions in the ϵ-SVQR model. In this paper, we propose a novel ‘ν-Support Vector Quantile Regression’ (ν-SVQR) model for quantile estimation. It can efficiently obtain a suitable asymmetric ϵ-insensitive zone according to the variance present in the data. The proposed ν-SVQR model uses the ν fraction of training data points for the estimation of the quantiles. In the ν-SVQR model, training points asymptotically appear above and below the asymmetric ϵ-insensitive tube in the ratio of 1 − τ and τ. Apart from these, there are other interesting properties of the proposed ν-SVQR model, which we have briefly described in this paper. These properties have been empirically verified using simulated and real-world data sets also.
Islamophobia in India
Authors: Sikander Mushtaq Ul Haq Ahmad
Published: December 2022

The Indian Muslims are numerically largest among the South Asian nations. They constitute the largest minority in India. Since the partition of the Indian subcontinent in 1947 that ended British colonialism and resulted in freedom of India and creation of Pakistan, those Muslims that remained in India have been suffering immensely at the hands of Indian State, save for a minority of elites who have ‘progressed.’ This paper explores systematic Islamophobia in India against Kashmiris and Indian Muslims and how it impacts Muslims across the country despite diversity in the community. A historical analysis is first offered, tracing the long history of Islamophobia in India to British rule which acted as a catalyst in furthering the divide, animosity and hatred among the two communities. Through an analysis of Hindu communal organizations, the role of media and politics, the paper deliberates on the relationship between Islamophobia and communal riots in India, with case studies about the lived realities of Indian Muslims, who are legally entitled to be equal citizens of free India.

Imamate and the Principle of Loving-Kindness
Authors: Sobhani Saeid
Published: December 2022

In the theology of ‘Adliyyah, the principle of loving-kindness (luṭf) is the most important maxim after the maxim of the intelligibility of good and evil (ḥusn wa qubḥ ‘aqlī). From their point of view, many doctrinal teachings such as the necessity of religious duties, the necessity of prophethood, the necessity of the infallibility of His messengers, promise (waʻd) and threat (waʻīd) are based on this maxim. Shiʻah theologians also prove the necessity of Imamate through ‘this maxim’. Accordingly, it is incumbent on God to select some individuals as the Imams to reveal to humankind the way of goodness and felicity via them.
Leadership Cultural Practices: A Preference for Elusive Communications in South Korea’s Tourism Industry
Authors: Chung Ji Hye Jaime
Published: December 2022

In the tourism sector leaders need a clear, speedy, and practical style of communication to handle rapidly changing situations. This article investigates this perception in South Korea, a highly contextbased society. The author deploys the systems model of leadership communication to
explore how tourism employees perceive leaders’ communication styles and behaviors. Qualitative data were analyzed using concepts of cultural characteristics and a leadership communication model. The findings highlight that respondents draw on cultural beliefs and prefer leaders who
exercise communicative elusiveness, despite the merits of clear communication in tourism. This discussion illuminates that leadership communication is affected by cultural variations. The embeddedness of cultural values in leadership behaviors is demonstrated, with traits shaping perceptions
of effective communication in different cultural contexts.
Calycosin Alleviates Oxidative Stress and Pyroptosis Induced by High Glucose in Human Retinal Capillary Endothelial Cells Induced by High Glucose
Authors: Wang Juan , Zhang Jianyong , Zhao Yan
Published: December 2022

Calycosin is an isoflavone isolated from the roots of Astragalus membranaceus. Due to its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities, it has been extensively used in traditional Chinese medicine formulations. Herein, we have evaluated the mechanism of action of calycosin using high glucose induced HRCEC cells as a model. The observed effects of calycosin include alleviation of oxidative stress induced by high glucose through promotion of SOD, GSH-Px and inhibition of ROS expression. Moreover, calycosin relieved HG-induced inflammation and pyroptosis by upregulating IL-1β, IL-18 and downregulating NLRP3, ASC, and cleaving caspase-1/procaspase-1. Calycosin also inhibited HMGB1/NF-κB pathway activation by promoting p-P65/P65, p-IκBα, HMGB1 and decreasing IκBα. All of these results support the notion that calycosin alleviates oxidative stress and pyroptosis of HRCEC cells induced by high glucose by inhibiting activation of the HMGB1/NF-κB pathway.
With sustainable use of local inputs, urban agriculture delivers community benefits beyond food
Authors: Gómez-Villarino María Teresa , Briz Teresa
Published: December 2022

Urban agriculture is becoming increasingly important in developed countries, especially in terms of its economic and social benefits. If urban gardens are managed according to agroecological principles - involving the efficient and sustainable use of local resources and inputs - there are many environmental benefits to local communities. We studied urban gardens in Berkeley, California, and Madrid, Spain, to see how agroecology is practiced. Communities such as these that utilize good ecological practices in urban gardens obtain a wide range of valuable ecosystem services - the kinds of services provided by healthy ecosystems, including cultural services such as a place to socialize. These communities can serve as model urban agricultural centers which can contribute to the achievement of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, including good health, food security and sustainable cities.
The Effect of Cupping Therapy on Blood Pressure in Elderly Patients
Authors: Kistan  , Najman
Published: December 2022

Introduction: Hypertension is understood as the silent killer as it frequently appears without symptoms and is a major cause of cardiovascular disease. The elderly is a group who is vulnerable to being diagnosed with cardiovascular disease. Cupping therapy is a popular alternative treatment option performed by the community. Over time, it encourages nurses to entirely evidence the benefits of cupping therapy. The objective of this study is to determine the effect of cupping therapy on reducing blood pressure in the elderly.

Methods: This research was conducted by employing a method in the form of a quasi-experimental one-group pretest-posttest. Researchers examined blood pressure before cupping therapy and calculated it again 30 minutes after cupping therapy. The sample administered was 15 elderly patients with cupping at Al Ghaffar Care, Bone Regency, which were selected by administering purposive sampling technique.

Results: After conducting statistical analysis by employing the paired sample T-test, the systolic pressure was obtained a significant value (p 0.001 < 0.05) with an average decrease in systolic pressure of 5.133 mmHg and a significant diastolic pressure was acquired (p 1,000 > 0.05). The results signify that there is an effect between a decrease in systolic pressure but no effect on diastolic pressure before and after cupping therapy.

Conclusion: In order to allow for a reduction in the dose of antihypertensive medications administered and lower the danger of drug dependence, cupping therapy can be thought of as an alternative therapy and adjunct therapy in patients with high blood pressure.

Published: December 2022

Introduction: Most nurses who were infected by COVID-19 experienced Post-acute Sequelae of COVID-19. Post-acute Sequelae of COVID-19 has caused fatigue, shortness of breath, memory impairment, and joint pain which make nurses unable to work optimally.  Objective: This research aimed to analyze the association between BMI, depression, and post-acute sequelae of COVID-19 among nurses in Lamongan, Indonesia.

Methods: This was a cross-sectional research which involved all nurses in Lamongan who were infected by COVID-19. The samples were obtained by purposive sampling from June to July 2022. The data were gathered by using questionnaires. Depression was measured by PHQ-9 questionnaire to which then analyzed by logistic regression test (α≤0.05).

Results: A total of 226 nurses who were infected by COVID-19 participated in this study. From the number, 45.1% were males and 54.9% were females. 96% were working in the health services while 4% were working in the educational institutions. 17.6% had history of diseases while 82.4% had no history of diseases. The results indicated that gender was not associated with both sequelae of cough and fatigue (p>0.05). BMI was not associated with either sequelae of cough or fatigue (p>0.05). Depression did not affect sequelae of cough (p=0.62), but nurses who experienced depression were 0.12 times at risk of experiencing fatigue (p=0.02).

Conclusion: It can be concluded that depression is a factor which increases fatigue.
