The Jihad Feminist Dynamics of Terrorism and Subordination of Women in the ISIS
Authors: Makanda Joseph
Published: July 2019

The increasing embeddedness of the jihad feminist within the Islamic State’s (ISIS) operations is eliciting works on the role of women in terrorism. However, there is yet to be a more constructive analysis that adequately accounts for the luring of Muslim women into the ISIS as a justification of the patriarchal beliefs and oppressive social systems. This paper is among the first attempts to draw on the Jihad Feminism Theory (JFT) to develop a conceptual discourse that explains the causal relationship between jihad feminist fighters and promotion of patriarchal practices and beliefs within the ISIS. Far from standing against any forms of Western feminization- as espoused by the ISS- , the paper argues that jihad feminism has further subverted Muslim women to sedentary roles within the ISIS as a way of sustaining the organisations’ operations and existence.
Role of Economic Development and Governance in Mitigating Insurgency: A Case Study of Tripura, India
Authors: Banik Sanjib , Das Gurudas
Published: July 2019

The purpose of this paper is two folds: firstly, to analyze the short run and long run relationship between insurgency on the one hand and economic development and governance on the other and secondly, to determine the direction of causality between these three variables in Tripura, one of the conflict-ridden states in India during 1980-2005. With the application of auto-regressive distributed lag model (ARDL), an inverse relationship has been established which formalises the descriptive notions about the cointegration between insurgency on the one hand and economic development and governance on the other in the long run. No short run relationship was established between them. Going one step ahead, an endeavour has been made to capture both the economic development and governance as diagnostics for peace in our model. The study suggests that economic development brings down insurgency faster than that of governance. However, improvement in governance is more certain to scale down insurgency. Furthermore, the application of Granger Causality test suggests that there exists bidirectional causality between insurgency, economic development and governance taking 6 lag and onwards.
Current Uptake of Technology Related to the Built Environment to Support Older Adults to Live Independently in Their Community
Authors: Futcher Julie , Pascale Federica , Pooley Alison , Francis Sally-Anne
Published: June 2019

Current forecasts predict that, in line with increasing global populations and extended life expectancy, older adults will dominate the population structure. To accommodate this demographic shift, governmental policies point to ‘ageing in place’ as key. This article outlines research findings of an initial investigation into the uptake of technology to support ‘ageing in place’. The study sets out to identify both incentives and barriers to the uptake under four key activity criteria— medical, monitoring, mobility and social—at three built environment scales—home, street and neighbourhood, for urban, semi-urban and rural locations—to support older adults to live independently in their community. Results show that whilst there are significant and justified concerns over the limitations of physical conditions to support ‘ageing in place’, most physical conditions along with age are not barriers to the uptake of technology, as uptake is high regardless of circumstances. However, the study revealed that uptake is dependent on level of training, if shown to lead to increasing independence, includes a level of ‘enjoyment of use’, and does not replace existing physical relationships. The study also identified that there is limited research around the use of technology for either mobility or social activities outside the home; rather, research focus is concerned with medical monitoring in the home. Finally, research overlooks the role of geographic demographics to support ‘ageing in place’. The results of this research can provide useful guidelines co-created with older adults for the development of new policies to ‘ageing in place’.

Objective:to evaluate the frequency of axillary lymph node metastasis (detected at routine pathomorphological examination) in order to determine the group of patients who do not require lymph node surgery.

Materials and methods.We analyzed medical records of 485 patients with breast cancer and no signs (either clinical or instrumental) of regional lymph node involvement who underwent surgery at the first stage of their treatment.

Results and conclusion.In patients with cN0 cancer, only the size of primary tumor ≤1 cm was found to be a significant factor indicating that regional lymph nodes are not involved (in addition to palpation, ultrasound, mammography, and spiral x-ray computed tomography of the chest). In patients with сТ1c cancer, the majority of standard immunohistochemical markers cannot yet be used as predictors of regional lymph node involvement. However, tumor differentiation grade G1 is rather an exclusion, which in combination with the size of the primary tumor сТ1c can also be considered as a significant prognostic factor.
The concept and structure of administrative-legal support of the state defense
Authors: Pashynskyi Volodymyr
Published: July 2019

The article deals with modern scientific approaches to the definition and understanding of the structure of administrative-legal support for state defense. The elements of the structure of the administrative-legal support of the state defense are explored.

Under the administrative-legal support of the state should be understood as regulated by administrative-legal norms, the systemic activity of the subjects of defense, in the first place, the activities of the subjects of public administration, with regard to the administrative- legal regulation, implementation, protection of social relations in the sphere of defense, guaranteeing the rights and legitimate interests of all subjects of legal relations, aimed at creating the necessary conditions for the defense of the state in the event of armed aggression.

At the same time, the structure of the administrative-legal support for the defense of the state will consist of the following elements: 1) the object of administrative-legal support of the state defense – social relations in the field of defense that penetrate practically all spheres of public life; 2) subjects of administrative-legal support for state defense – subjects of administrative legal relations are endowed with rights and duties in the field of defense; 3) norms of law (norms of administrative law) – administrative-legal norms which regulate public relations in the field of state defense; 4) administrative-legal relations in the field of state defense – legal relationships settled by administrative and legal regulations that arise, develop, and cease between the subjects of defense in the process of exercising powers in the field of state defense; 5) guarantees of administrative-legal support of state defense – conditions, means, methods, forms and methods by which the implementation of public relations in the field of state defense is provided.

The administrative-legal support of the state defense will be carried out by authorized security entity within the limits of authority and administrative and legal means determined by the norms of administrative law.
Peculiarities of administrative and legal status of subjects of disciplinary proceeding in the bodies of the National Police of Ukraine
Authors: Medvedenko Nadiia
Published: July 2019

The article analyzes regulatory and legal sources that regulate disciplinary liability and disciplinary proceedings in the bodies of the National Police of Ukraine, as well as scientific opinion on the administrative and legal status of subjects of disciplinary proceedings in the bodies of the National Police of Ukraine. For disciplinary proceedings, as well as for other types of proceedings, the presence of a certain circle of persons who are its participants – subjects of disciplinary proceedings, and have a definite legal status is characteristic. And the peculiarities of the legal status of the police officer, determine the peculiarities of the status of the subject of disciplinary proceedings in the bodies of the National Police of Ukraine.

As a result of the study of the content of the normative legal provision of disciplinary responsibility and scientific works on this topic, the classification of subjects of disciplinary proceedings in the bodies of the National Police of Ukraine was carried out and their legal status was considered. It is noted that for subjects of disciplinary proceedings characterized by a combination of different functions during the proceedings. Thus, the manager who appointed an official investigation may be the subject of initiation or an auxiliary entity. Or the subject of initiation maybe come the subject, which directly conducts official investigation. Therefore, it is not always possible to clearly distinguish subjects of disciplinary proceedings in their functions by combining and combining these functions.

The legal status is determined by law only for a separate circle of subjects: the chief who appoints an official investigation, the executive (heads, members of the commission) conducting an official investigation, and, in part, the person in respect of which the official investigation is conducted (lack of legal consolidation of his duties, which may hinder the qualitative and objective conduct of a business investigation). The legal status of other subjects of disciplinary proceedings remains uncertain and needs to be established.

Parents’ Notions of Education Quality in Metropolis and Their Attitudes Towards Parental Control
Authors: Vachkov I. , Vachkova S.N. , Voropaev M.V.
Published: June 2019

The paper presents outcomes of an empirical study aimed at exploring parents’ notions about the quality of education their children get in Moscow and their attitudes towards controlling the child’s learning process and life. Our hypothesis was that perceptions of the quality of Moscow school education in parents correlate with their control over the child’s education and life. In the study we used a specially developed survey. The sample included 434 subjects. Approximately one third of the respondents expressed their dissatisfaction with the quality of their child’s education. Notably, extracurricular activities received higher rates as compared to the regular curriculum. In the parents’ opinion, the study load is so large the children almost have no free time left. As for their children’s future, most parents still relate it with getting higher education. The majority of parents associate success with educational level and therefore place demands on the quality of education. Also, the study revealed a significant positive correlation between the parental evaluations of the education quality and the attitudes towards parental control over the child’s education at all stages of schooling.

Authors: Dulsat-Ortiz Carles , Álvarez-Cánovas Isabel
Published: July 2019

In this paper, we present the technological possibilities of sports technicians during their distance training. It does special emphasis in the role that the communication has for all participants and as it differentiates of the face-to-face delivery to benefit those sportive specialities with fewer practitioners and/or with heterogeneous distribution in the territory. Besides, this training delivery contributes to the application of the new knowledge to the sessions and trainings in which they participate. The research begins with the following questions: (a) does access to the courses facilitate the fact that it is online; and (b) how does the use of the platform contribute to communication between participants? The study focuses on participants during their first on-line course under the current legislation of the sportive technicians of the distinct sportive specialities of the Royal Spanish Federation of Skating. The methodology used is qualitative for interviewing the coordinator and both qualitative and quantitative for students’ and instructors’ questionnaires. This research concludes with a clear need for teachers to be taught using the same technologies that they later have to deliver and, that the communication in the platform is rather limited. Extending the kind of tools that the platform has is a key factor to give an array of possibilities of online training.

Transformational Teaching: Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) as a Teacher and Murabbī
Authors: Alwani Zainab
Published: July 2019

This article analyzes the transformative role of Prophet Muhammad as a murabbī. I apply the hermeneutic of reading the divine text as a structural unity, a concept known as al-waḥda al-binā’iyya li-l-Qur’ān. After defining the concept of murabbī, I suggest that a holistic reading of the Qur’an can help us rebuild our concepts from within the Qur’an, a methodological approach that we can use to reshape the current religious discourse. I present the Prophet’s (pbuh) mission as a roadmap, a model that envisions a holistic relationship between the Qur’an and the Sunna as its final goal. I then devote special attention to this model by focusing on his teaching strategies and how they impacted the first generation of Muslims. I argue that a strong methodology based on the Qur’an and Sunna can help revive the role of a companionate Muslim community. I close by stressing the significance of developing this traditional role and applying it in all aspects of contemporary life.

Published: July 2019

Physical activity plays an important prognostic role in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). According to published data, decreased physical activity is associated with higher frequency of COPD exacerbations, higher mortality, and lower quality of life in COPD patients. As the airflow limitation is an underlying mechanism of COPD, double bronchodilators can reduce lung hyperinflation and improve exercise tolerance in patients with COPD. According to the robust evidence on the efficacy of tiotropium/olodaterol combination, double bronchodilators can increase exercise duration and time before dyspnea occurrence on exertion. However, further studies are needed in the field of rehabilitation and a role of physical activity in the management of patients with COPD.

Authors: Nenasheva Natal'ya M.
Published: July 2019

Bronchial asthma is a heterogeneous disease with variable course. Identification of pathobiological mechanisms of asthma phenotype, also called as asthma endotypes, is an urgent task to optimize treatment of asthma, especially of severe asthma. Although the author recognizes that T2-low asthma is a serious problem, this article is devoted to the T2-high asthma endotype. Currently, biological agents are available for T2-high asthma only, so the focus on T2 high asthma is important. Current characteristics of uncontrolled, difficult-to-treat and severe asthma, mechanisms of eosinophilic inflammation in T2-high asthma, main cells and mediators involved in the disease, and biomarkers of T2-high asthma were discussed in the article.

Published: July 2019

Targeted therapy for cystic fibrosis (CF) is a novel approach to CF treatment that can restore and potentiate CFTR channel activity. Lumacaftor/ivacaftor combination therapy is related to significant clinical and functional benefits in CF patients who are homozygous for F508del CFTR mutation. The authors described a case of effective treatment with lumacaftor/ivacaftor combination in a homozygous F508del CF patient with severe lung disease. This experience demonstrates an urgent need to make this pathogenic treatment available for patients with this genotype in Russia.
The correlation between the dialogic parental guidance and the intensity of gadget utilization with the development of speaking and linguistic aspect of children at Tadika Puri early childhood education in 2018
Authors: Winingsih Gusti Ayu Martha
Published: June 2019

Background :Since child development potentially subjects to disorder or deviation, early screening using the Pre-Screening Developmental Questionnaire must be conducted. The research result of Mardina (2016) shows that 8.2% toddlers experience suspect during their speech development. The introduction to gadget which happens too early and the absence of time limit could bring negative impact. Dialogic guidance from parents is highly needed to minimize the negative impact(s) of gadget utilization. This research aims to find the correlation between the dialogic parental guidance and the intensity of gadget utilization with the development of speech and linguistic on early childhood.  Methods :The research design was analytical reseach with cross-sectional arrangement and quantitative approach. It was conducted at Tadika Puri Kindergarten. The size of sample was 35 people with purposive sampling technique. The instruments used were questionnaire and pre-screening developmental questionnaire (PDQ). The data analysis technique used was chi square and logistic regression test. Results :Based on the research results, the majority of 25 respondents (71.4%) received good parental guidance, almost half or 10 respondents (28.6 %) had high-intensity of gadget utilization, while the other half i.e. 11 respondents.  (31.4%) experienced late development in speech and linguistic aspect. P value (0.02) < 0.05, there is correlation between dialogic parental guidance with speech development. P value (0.03) < 0.05 meant that there is correlation between the intensity and the linguistic development. Regression test, p value: = 0.018 < 0.05 , OR =4,307 which meant that intensity has special correlation and has opportunity which is 4 times bigger than dialogic parental guidance.Conclusion :There is correlation between dialogic guidance and the intensity of gadget utilization on the development of speech and linguistic.

Published: June 2019

Background: Hypertension is defined as a systolic blood pressure of 140 mmHg or more, or a diastolic blood pressure of 90 mmHg or more or taking anti-hypertensive medication. The clinical presentation of high blood pressure may depend upon several factors such as age, gender, severity and duration of hypertension. There is a paucity of data exploring the role hypertension duration may play in shaping the relationship between blood pressure and signs and symptoms of hypertension. To evaluate the effect of hypertension duration on relationship between blood pressure and signs and symptoms in hypertensive patients.Methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out among 250 patients, aged 18 or above, with self-reported history of hypertension and on anti-hypertensive medication. Data were collected by means of a structured questionnaire whereas the blood pressure level was measured with the help of sphygmomanometer using stethoscope. Inferential analysis was performed by applying chi-square test whereas the significance level was set at 0.05.Results: The study results revealed that among patients with ≥5 years duration of hypertension headache history (P=0.021), edema (P=0.034), increased urinary frequency (P=0.031), sleep apnoea (P=0.016), palpitation (P=0.005) and confusion (p=0.021) were significantly associated with systolic whereas only increased urinary frequency (P=0.009) was significantly associated with diastolic blood pressure. Moreover, among patients with <5 years duration of hypertension vision problems (P=0.03), sleep apnoea (P=0.015) and palpitation (P=0.035) were significantly associated with systolic whereas sleep apnoea (P=0.048) and palpitation (P=0.028) were significantly associated with diastolic blood pressure.Conclusions: The study results showed that patients with higher blood pressure were more likely to have the signs and symptoms of hypertension. Also, patients with longer duration of hypertension had greater number of signs and symptoms associated with systolic hypertension.

Published: June 2019

Background: Breast lump is one of the commonest complaints with which patients present in breast clinics. As in most cases breast lump ultimately leads to a diagnosis of breast cancer, it is important for women with a breast lump to receive appropriate evaluation. So initial diagnostic approach such as utilization of rapid, inexpensive, presumptive and safe method is utmost important as such methods not only would benefit both patients and clinicians by prompting proper preoperative diagnosis and management but also further limits unnecessary testing and procedures. Aim and objectives of this study was to analyse the diagnostic accuracy of mammogram according to Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) score and fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) in patients presented with benign and malignant breast lumps in authors centre.Methods: During this retrospective study from January 2018 to December 2018, the subjects concerned included all the female patients, who were referred to the department of pathology for FNAC of their breast mass and had radiological reports (mammography) with BI-RADS score according to the latest guidelines. The sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive and negative predictive values of BI-RADS scores and FNAC in diagnosis of breast diseases was done on the basis of final diagnosis.Results: In this study, the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value and accuracy was 88.57%, 82.46%,75.61%,92.16% and 84.78%, respectively for Mammography (BIRADS) score and 100% for all the parameters on FNAC.Conclusions: According to authors above study findings concluded that FNAC could be considered an ideal initial diagnostic modality in all breast lumps recognized by means of imaging techniques. It is not only considered as safe, cost effective, rapid and presumptive diagnostic method but also further limits unnecessary testing and procedures.

Published: June 2019

Background: The pathogenesis of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) has not been fully elucidated. The gastrointestinal tract have a well-differentiated intrinsic nervous system and also this system is connected with nervous system. The symptoms of IBS are related with autonomic nervous system (ANS). It was also possible to see cardiovascular symptoms due to this link. This link can influence QT dispersion (QTd). The aim of this case control study is to show the cardiac effects of IBS by changes in QTd.Methods: There were 56 newly diagnosed patients with IBS and 60 control subjects were included in this study. IBS was diagnosed using the new Roma IV Criterias. Standard 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) were taken in both two groups. QTd and corrected QTd (QTcd), QT max, QT min, QT avarage, Corrected QT (QTc) min, QTc max, QTc avarage values were calculated with Bazzet Formula from rest ECGs.Results: There were 56 newly diagnosed patients with IBS and 60 control subjects were included in the study (p:0.94). The mean age of the patients and control patients were 51.75±10.41 years and 48.41±9.72 (p: 0.53) years, respectively. QTd and corrected QTd (QTcd), QT max, QT min, QT mean, Corrected QT (QTc) min, QTc max, QTc mean values were calculated. QTd and QTcd values were found to be significantly higher in the patients with IBS (40.2±7.18; 34.1±6.18 / 52±9.8; 50.6±7.61 Msec, respectively). It is concluded that, QTd (p: 0.022) and QTcd (p: 0.032) were significantly incresased in the IBS.Conclusions: Activation of ANS in the patients with IBS can affect QT period in ECG.
Are acute infusion reactions after rituximab underreported?
Authors: Mohan Prafull , Nazar Shah , Gupta Pooja
Published: June 2019

Background: Rigorous premarketing trials may fail to capture safety issues associated with new drugs. This is more likely to happen in case of biopharmaceuticals. We take the case of rituximab, and anti CD20 monoclonal antibody, which was the first monoclonal antibody to get approval. This open label observational study was done with the objective of estimating the incidence of acute infusion reaction associated with rituximab infusion.Methods: The study population consisted of patients hospitalized for receiving rituximab, in day care centre(s) of a tertiary care hospital. Number and type of acute infusion reactions (AIR) were recorded on a case record form along with patient characteristics and medical history.Results: A total of 50 infusions were observed and all infusions were followed by at least one AIR. Total 71 AIRs were recorded among these 50 infusions (1.4 AIR per infusion). Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma was the commonest indication for which patients were receiving rituximab. In a subset analysis, incidence of AIR was statistically lower in patients having received corticosteroids as premedication. However, brand of rituximab, gender of the patient and first or second cycle had no bearing on incidence of AIRs.Conclusions: AIRs are more common in real time clinical settings than what is reported. There is a need to formulate appropriate risk management plan depending on post marketing clinical data. Use of corticosteroids as premedication may be one such strategy. New drugs, esp biopharmaceuticals, may have unidentified/under reported safety issues and there is a need to undertake focussed pharmacovigilance endeavours to unravel them.

Esophageal Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors (GISTs) were extremely rare, with an incidence of 0,2% of GIST cases. Majority of esophageal GISTs were classified as high-risk category (70.83%), thus, it was required more aggressive approaches, e.g. radical surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy. This was a case of a 55-year-old male patient who was referred to surgery department complained of atypical chest pain and swallowing difficulty. Based on thorax X-Ray, it was suspected mediastinal mass. In addition, based on chest CT scan, it was suspected a mass at distal esophagus with multiple nodular lesions in liver dd/fatty liver. X-ray Oesophagus Maag Duodenum (OMD): Esophageal mass at 1/3 middle-distal part. Upper endoscopy diagnosis showed a fragile circularly spreading tumor mass which it was easily bleeds. Biopsy also showed a mild esophageal dysplasia with non-specific inflammation and necrotic tissue which was difficult to assess. This patient underwent McKeown esophagectomy. Moreover, pathology report showed diagnosis of a malignant tumor which fitted with criteria of malignant GIST, with both ends tumor-free. Finally, the patient was administered for imatinib as adjuvant therapy 1x400mg daily. This report illustrated complexity in diagnosing and treating esophageal GIST. The tumor size and mitotic rate of tumor were associated with poor survival.
