Authors: Muhammad Nur Sholihin
Published: November 2022

Departing from the importance of the position of sound or shaut, in the realm of lughat was born the AL-ASHWAT SCIENCE, which subsequently in linguistics was called phonology. The role of ashwat science is certainly inevitable, so the research that the author is doing this time aims to reveal how important understanding of al-ashwat science theory is and where its weak point is at the level of applied pronunciation of hijaiyah letters. This type of research is library research or literature review. While the data collection method uses the documentation method. The data analysis that the author does is editing, organizing and inference. The results of his research are an understanding of ashwat in more depth and mistakes that often occur more clearly. Even when someone enters a practical level in the domain of Tajweed, without the correct understanding of shifatul letters it is impossible to realize the right and correct makharijul letters. Thus in the process of talaqqi, the expert tutor should be present in the learning of reading hijaiyah letters, the language of the Qur'an and so on.

Cool fruits - Effekter av lagringstid samt lagringstemperatur på förekomst av Listeria monocytogenes i färsk fruktcocktail
Authors: Alsanius Beatrix , Mulaosmanovic Emina
Published: November 2022

Färska fruktsallader (fruktcocktail) efterfrågas av konsumenter. Med dagens ansträngda elpriser ställs frågan om kyltemperaturen under framställning, transport och display i butiken skulle kunna höjas från 4 till 8 °C utan att äventyra livsmedelssäkerheten för dessa produkter. Föreliggande rapport bygger på en litteraturstudie och en provokationsstudie, där den köldtoleranta (psykrofila) organismen Listeria monocytogenes användes som modellorganism. Litteraturstudien genomfördes som en systematisk litteratursökning i databasen Web‐of‐Science. I den experimentella delen studerades tillväxtbeteendet av L. monocytogenes med hänsyn till lagringstemperatur och lagringstid i en färsk fruktcocktail bestående av ananas, röda äpplen, nätmelon och röda druvor. Den experimentella delen byggde på frågeställningen om lagringstemperaturen kan höjas från 4 °C till 8 °C samt från en rekommenderad lagringslängd på 4 dagar till 8 dagar, med hänsyn till förekomst av L. monocytogenes. En klinisk stam av L. monocytogenes inokulerades i färdiga råa fruktsallader. Tre temperaturregimer tillämpades: 4 °C i åtta dagar, 8 °C i åtta dagar samt 4 °C i ett dygn följt av 8 °C under återstående lagringstid på totalt åtta dagar (så kallad dynamisk temperaturregim). Vi fann att modellorganismen hade förökat sig efter åtta dagars lagringstid i samtliga behandlingar, dock avsevärt långsammare vid lagring i 4 °C, jämfört med kontinuerlig lagring i 8 °C samt den dynamiska behandlingen. Vid 4 °C lagringstemperatur visade L. monocytogenes en tillväxtpotential av knappt ett halvt log‐värde, samt med log 1,37 respektive log 1,23 vid 8 °C lagringstemperatur respektive dynamisk lagring, trots att fruktsalladens pH låg under minimi‐kraven för L. monocytogenes. I synnerhet i behandlingarna med högre temperatur förekom en massiv uppförökning av jästsvampar. Utifrån föreliggande resultat av litteraturundersökningen förordar vi ingen förhöjning av lagringstemperatur eller förlängning av lagringstid.
The contemporary meanings of Meer's Poetry
Authors: Bhatti Dr. Muhammad Rauf
Published: November 2022

An essential attribute of classical literature includes its capacity to incorporate and cater for temporal requirements and ever changing trends. This very trait of classical literature gives it its perpetual relevance in any society. Meer Taqi Meer's poetry is replete with such quality as for as Urdu poetry is concerned. Two centuries ago, this great poet had, undoubtedly, been a metaphor for its agrarian civilization, whereas this is a post-industrial society we breathe in today but Meer is equally important for us. There is a need to know how the poet, having crossed such huge temporal sassiers, still maintains a relevance with todays' word of ours and how he is a contemporary sans temporal progression. This article is an effort to reveal this very secret.

Published: November 2022

Cascaded H-bridge topology has been used in grid tied converters for battery energy storage system due to its modular structure. To fully utilize the converter’s modularity, this paper proposes a hierarchical distributed control architecture that consists of primary control, secondary control and battery state of charge (SOC) balancing control. Primary control ensures accurate current tracking while a distributed secondary control based on consensus algorithm is presented to regulate power sharing among modules and is proved to be stable theoretically. A distributed SOC balancing control is further introduced to improve energy efficiency of battery energy storage system. Finally, the hierarchical distributed control strategy is implemented using hardware controllers and a software platform. Besides, a carrier phase shift control is also implemented to achieve multilevel output voltage and harmonic reduction. The experimental results demonstrate the performance of the proposed control scheme effectively. Keywords—: Battery SOC balancing, cascaded H-bridge, consensus algorithm, distributed control.

A Needs Survey of Learning Chinese: Nursing Profession in Phuket Province
Authors: Pathanasin Saranya
Published: November 2022

As a result of Chinese economic growth in the 21st century, Chinese for Specific Purposes (CPS) has become a new paradigm for the teaching and learning of language.  Despite some differences, it is reasonable to adapt the English for Specific Purposes (ESP) framework, in which a Needs analysis is fundamental for course design, into the CPS process. This study has two aims: to survey the need for nurses in Phuket to learn the Chinese language, and to suggest a course design for the target learners. Data were collected from 100 nurses working in three public hospitals on Phuket Island. The research instrument was an online questionnaire. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. The results show a high demand for learning Chinese, especially listening and speaking skills for communicating with patients and their relatives. Writing and reading skills are not highly desired by the target learners.

INTRODUCTION: Substance use is on increase and a major public health problem contributing about 1.7 million deaths among teenagers globally. Ironically, some are socially acceptable and freely consumed during social activities. They are consumed commonly for social, religious and medicinal reasons. This study aims to assess substance use, types, reasons and its perceived effects among PLHIV in Benue State, Nigeria

METHODS: The study was at Centre for Infectious Diseases Control (CIDC), 161 Nigerian Air Force Hospital, Makurdi at Benue state, Nigeria. Qualitative data was collected using Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) among five homogeneous groups involving 40 discussants [30 and 10 health care workers]. The recorded discussions were transcribed verbatim, coded based on predetermined themes and reported.

RESULTS: The commonest psychoactive substance used by People living with Human Immunodeficiency Virus (PLWHIV) for both males and females was Alcohol followed by Kola nut and Bitter Cola. Others were; cannabis, overdose dose of Rohypnol, Tramadol and diazepam; paracitamol mixed with ‘la-cassera’ soft drink and codeine in cough syrup as well as Marijuana. Major reasons for use included to increase work, sexual performance, reading time and appetite; reduce nausea, vomiting and to manage stress or boredom. They perceived most substance to be safe though few expressed their concern on the possible interaction with Antiretroviral (ARV) medications and possibility of increasing Gastrointestinal tract (GIT) effect of some drugs. This they said depends on type and dose of consumption.

CONCLUSION: Substance use among PLWHIV is common. Misconceptions and poor appreciation of effect of these substance use among these clients abound. Every effort should be made to tame this menace.

Authors: Linh Ly Ngo , Minh Duy Tran
Published: November 2022

This study investigates consumers' intention to purchase organic foods in Vietnam after social distancing because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Furthermore, we established and explained the relationship between the factor "perceived value" and buying organic food intentions along with the lens of TPB. The sample included 362 MBA students from three prominent universities in Ho Chi Minh. Latent structural equation modeling (SEM) was applied to analyze this reliability and confirm these relationships. The results stated that factors "age" and "perceived value," including functional, economic, social, and emotional value, have effects on "subjective norms" and "attitude toward buying organic food." With "perceived behavioral control," these factors had a positive impact on the purchase intention for organic food. The study's originality extends TPB to explain intention in the organic food field with two new constructs, "age" and "perceived value." Because the intention factor had a strong positive impact on purchasing behavior, results help marketers and managers have a sustainable policy to encourage people to buy organic foods during and post-pandemic.

Heterosexual behavior contributed 19.6% and injecting drug consumption by 0.9% as the cause of HIV in Indonesia. This study determined factors associated with the prevention of HIV risk behavior in Bukittinggi, West Sumatra, Indonesia. 362 students in grades X and IX from 5 public high schools in Bukittinggi participated in this study. From September 2020 to February 2021, a cross-sectional study with this research design was conducted. The information was gathered using a questionnaire that followed the Indonesian Health Demographic Survey Instrument's instructions (IDHS).

This study found that HIV risk behavior in the risky category was 17.96%, the low level of knowledge was found to be 48.90%, the low attitude was 32.87%, bad peers was 24.03%, and poor parental communication was found to be 64.09%. According to the results of the bivariate analysis, knowledge and peers were connected with a p-value of 0.000 and an OR of 3.68, which meant that peers who were unreliable had 3.68-times greater likelihood of engaging in risky behavior. According to the results of the multivariate study, knowledge, peer influence, and parental communication all had an R2 value of 0.11%, which indicated that they could anticipate 11% of HIV risk behaviors. The lack of knowledge and poor peers provided the opportunities for HIV risk behavior in adolescents in Bukittinggi.
