Authors: Ummi Zahrotul , Hadi Eka Yunizar Anggraini , Widianti Reza Yuniar Zain
Published: October 2024

Artikel ini bertujuan untuk menjelaskan bagaimana penafsiran ayat dalam Al-Quran yang menejelaskan tentang produksi serta tafsiran dari mufassir. Dalam artikel ini ayat yang digunakan yaitu QS Al-Mulk Ayat 15 dan QS Al-Hadid ayat 25 serta mengambil tafsiran dari Al-Azhar dan Ibnu Katsir. Sehingga para pembaca dapat mengerti dan memahami bagaimana hukumnya. Menurut pandangan Islam, produksi memegang peranan penting dalam perekonomian sekiranya satu diantara dari tiga sektor utama kegiatan ekonomi, yaitu produksi, distribusi, dan konsumsi. Produksi dipandang sebagai sektor yang menjadi sumber pendapatan utama bagi masyarakat, serta sumber pendapatan bagi individu dan kelompok. Hasil penelitian ini menjelaskan bahwa aktivitas produksi harus dilakukan dengan kecerdasan yang berlandaskan pada prinsip-prinsip etika dan hukum syariat. Produksi harus mematuhi prinsip halal, dengan Islam melarang produksi barang dan jasa yang haram karena dapat berdampak buruk bagi manusia. Sebagai produsen Muslim, tindakan produksi tidak hanya mencari keuntungan materi, tetapi juga mempertimbangkan keberkahan dan kehalalan. Produksi dalam Islam bertujuan untuk menghasilkan kekayaan dengan menggunakan sumber daya yang diizinkan oleh syariat, atau yang disebut halal.

Published: October 2024

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memperjelas perbedaan karakteristik antara tafsir tahlili dan tafsir ijmali dalam Al-Quran. Dalam penelitian ini, pendekatan kualitatif dengan analisis konten digunakan untuk menganalisis karakteristik dari kedua tafsir tersebut. Sampel penelitian terdiri dari tiga tafsir tahlili dan tiga tafsir ijmali yang dipilih secara purposive sampling. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa tafsir tahlili cenderung memberikan penjelasan yang lebih rinci dan rinci tentang makna ayat-ayat Al-Quran. Tafsir ini mencakup penjelasan tentang bahasa, tata bahasa, dan konteks sosial yang mempengaruhi makna ayat-ayat Al-Quran. Di sisi lain, tafsir ijmali lebih condong memberikan penjelasan yang lebih umum dan ringkas tentang makna ayat-ayat Al-Quran. Tafsir ini fokus pada inti makna dan tidak memberikan penjelasan rinci tentang tata bahasa atau konteks sosial. Selain itu, tafsir tahlili lebih memperhatikan konteks sejarah dan lingkungan sosial yang mempengaruhi kandungan ayat-ayat Al-Quran. Tafsir ini juga cenderung memberikan penjelasan tentang tafsir-tafsir alternatif dan mengutip pendapat para ahli untuk mendukung tafsirnya. Sedangkan tafsir ijmali cenderung lebih singkat dan fokus pada makna umum ayat-ayat Al-Quran tanpa mengutip pendapat para ahli. Implikasi dari penelitian ini adalah pentingnya pemilihan tafsir yang sesuai dengan kebutuhan pembaca Al-Quran. Maka, perlu memperhatikan karakteristik tafsir yang digunakan untuk memastikan pemahaman yang tepat terhadap ayat-ayat Al-Quran. Karena itu,
Penafsiran Al-Quran di Era Kontemporer
Authors: Lewo Abdullah
Published: October 2024

Teks Al-Quran adalah kalam Allah yang Agung. Manusia memiliki keterbatasan dalam memahaminya sehingga membutuhkan penafsiran-penafsiran terhadap ayat yang dirasa kurang difahami. Penafsiran Al-Quran selalu berkembang sesuai dengan kondisi zamannya. Salah satu penafsiran yaitu penafsiran kontemporer. Penafsiran ini merupakan penafsiran atau penjelasan mengenai teks Al-Quran yang memiliki asumsi bahwa Al-Quran shalih li kulli zaman wa makan. Penafsiran kontemporer berbeda dengan penafsiran klasik. Jika penafsiran klasik memaknai teks Al-Quran sesuai dengan makna harfiyah, maka penafsiran kontemporer memaknainya secara kontekstual.
Analisis Semiotika Roland Barthes Pada Logo Nahdlatul Ulama’
Authors: Sholihah Musarrofatus , Zakarias Cecep
Published: October 2024

Penelitian ini merupakan kajian semiotik yang mempelajari hakikat tentang keberadaan suatu tanda, dimana persepsi dan pandangan tentang realitas, dikonstruksikan oleh kata-kata dan tanda-tanda lain yang digunakan dalam konteks sosial. Tanda membentuk persepsi manusia, lebih dari sekedar merefleksikan realitas yang ada. Tradisi semiotika mencakup teori utama mengenai bagaimana tanda mewakili objek, ide, situasi, keadaan, perasaan, dan sebagainya yang berada diluar diri. Metode yang digunakkan dalam penelitian ini adalah studi kajian literatur mengenai tanda pada kajian semiotika. Dalam kehidupan sehari-hari manusia tidak dapat lepas dari tanda, lambang, maupun simbol-simbol. Tanda, lambang, dan simbol-simbol tersebut dapat kita jumpai diberbagai upacara tradisional yang diselenggarakan oleh masyarakat Jawa. Agar dapat memahami hal tersebut maka harus mengetahui ilmu yang mendukungnya. Adapun ilmu yang mempelajari tentang tanda, lambang, dan simbol-simbol adalah semiotik. Semiotik oleh Ferdinand de Saussure diartikan sebagai ilmu yang mempelajari peran tanda (sign) sebagai bagian dari kehidupan sosial. Lebih lanjut semiotik adalah ilmu yang mempelajari struktur, jenis, tipologi, serta relasi-relasi tanda dalam penggunannya di dalam masyarakat. Oleh sebab itu, semiotik mempelajari relasi diantara komponen-komponen tersebut dengan masyarakat penggunanya. Pendekatan semiotik merupakan sebuah pendekatan yang memiliki sistem sendiri, berupa sistem tanda. Tanda itu dalam sastra khususnya sastra tulis diberikan dalam suatu bentuk teks, baik yang terdapat di dalam struktur teks maupun di luar struktur teks karya tersebut.  Bisa dikatakan, melalui teori Roland Barthes dengan tanda denotasi, konotasi dan mitos, peneliti dapat lebih memahami makna atau simbol yang terkandung dalam dialog yang sehari-hari masyarakat gunakan. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan analisis semiotika dari Roland Barthes. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menganalisis makna denotative, konotatif, serta mitos dan ideologi dalam logo Nahdlaatul Ulama’.

Feminist Tafsir: Makiyyah and Madaniyyah's Significance for 'Ulumul Qur'an in the Thought of Husein Muhammad
Authors: Sartika Ela
Published: October 2024

The grand theory of makiyyah and madaniyyah according to classical scholars is seen from three aspects, namely time, place, and object of the speaker. However, Husein Muhammad perspektive makiyyah and madaniyyah from the aspect of time only. This view stems from Husayn's definition of the Qur'an as a guide that will always be relevant to human life. Through the Makiyyah and Madnaiyyah theories, he shows an interpretation that is not gender biased but has implications for the 'Ulumul Qur’an theory. This problem raises two questions about the concept of makiyyah and madaniyyah according to Husein Muhammad, and what are the implications of his views on the 'ulumul Qur'an. The results of this study indicate that Husein Muhammad has the view that makiyyah and madaniyyah are influenced by the social reality of Arab society. The Makiyyah verses show a universal meaning while the madaniyyah verses show a partikular meaning so that it has implications for the 'ulumul Qur'an aspect, namely the mansukh, muhkam, and mutasyabih texts.
Ragam Corak Tafsir: Tafsir Sufi
Authors: Abdillah Ihsan , Baihaqi Mochammad Rizky
Published: October 2024

Karya-karya tafsir al-Qur’ân bercorak sufistik  seperti halnya tasawuf sebagai disiplin ilmu, mendapat label plus-minus dari para pengkaji. Imam al-Thusiy mengomentari penafsiran sufi  sebagai “Penafsiran seperti itu keliru (خطاء ) dan dusta (بهتان) kepada Allâh”. Imam al-Suyuthiy menyatakan bahwa pendapat para sufi dalam memaknai al-Qur’ân tidak dianggap sebagai tafsir. Ibn Shalah dalam Fatâwa-nya, Ia mengutip apa yang dikatakan oleh Imam Abi Hasan al-Wahidi; siapa yang menganggap bahwa kitab al-Sulami itu kitab tafsir maka ia telah menjadi kafir. Demikian juga penolakan dari Imam al-Zarkasyiy, Imam al-Nasafi dan Imam al-Rafi’iy. Sementara itu, banyak ulama yang memandang bahwa tafsir sufistik memiliki faidah untuk mengurai sisi esoterik al-Qur’ân dengan asumsi bahwa al-Qur’ân memiliki makna dzahir dan makna bathin. Jika demikian, maka tafsir sufistik memiliki kontribusi jelas pada pemaknaan dari aspek bathinnya dengan perangkat takwil atau isyarat-isyarat tertentu, sementara untuk makna zhâhir-nya sudah digarap oleh perangkat tafsir.  Imam al-Ghazali menegaskan bahwa tidak ada larangan seseorang menafsirkan al-Qur’ân dengan penafsiran sufistik jika bermaksud untuk menampilkan kekayaan makna al-Qur’ân hingga batas-batas pemaknaan dengan simbol atau isyarat-isyarat tertentu. Perdebatan tentang status tafsir sufistik antara kebolehan membaca, memahami dan mengamalkannya seperti yang representasikan oleh Imam al-Ghazali versus beberapa ulama yang menolak karya-karya tafsir sufistik, me-niscayakan untuk mendefinisikan tafsir sufistik dan memetakan (mapping) tafsir sufistik dengan membuat kategori-kategori baik paradigma, karya-karya, kelebihan-kelebihan dan kekurangan-kekurangannya.

Heavy MG Supply Crisis in the Red Army in 1941-1942: Maxim-MG Production in the USSR during Evacuation and Industrial Facilities Mobilization
Authors: Alexey Isaev
Published: October 2024

The article is devoted to the problem of organizing the production of Maxim heavy machine guns for the Red Army in 1941-1942 in the conditions of evacuation and involvement of mobilized civilian enterprises in the production of weapons. The purpose of the study is to formulate a scientifically based answer about the reasons for the acute shortage of heavy machine guns in the Red Army in the winter of 1941-1942 and the continuation of the crisis situation during 1942. This issue has not been fully reflected in domestic historiography. The article examines the production of Maxim machine guns at three enterprises: in Tula, in evacuation in Zlatoust, and at a motorcycle plant mobilized for the production of machine guns in Izhevsk. Each enterprise required its own emergency measures to establish rhythmic production, both organizational, personnel and technological. Evacuation became a huge problem due to the fact that the relocation of equipment far inland was not accompanied by the adequate number of personnel from Tula to operate this equipment. As a result, there was a shortage of specialistslin Zlatoust, and the remaining personnel in Tula found themselves deprived of equipment. To some extent, the production of Maxim machine guns in besieged Leningrad and its features is touched upon. The role of spare parts from the GAU warehouses of the Red Army in the production of Maxim machine guns during the crisis period is shown. In addition to the quantitative aspect, the quality of manufactured machine guns is taken into account, since the increase in production rates in 1942 was accompanied by a decrease in the quality of Maxim machine guns supplied to the troops. The research is based on the documents of the TzAMO and the RGAE archives.

Authors: Chugumbaev Roman
Published: October 2024

In the modern world, the tendency to increase the importance of the principles of sustainable development is becoming more and more stable. The growing public awareness of the need to achieve sustainable development goals causes increased pressure on businesses to disclose information about their impact on society and the environment. This circumstance increases the need for companies to be accountable and expand their accounting and analytical work. This contributes to the objective expansion of the tasks of the information and analytical support systems in companies, including the accounting system. The purpose of this study is to assess the impact of the increasing need for general accountability on the development of accounting systems, thus emphasizing the need to take into account the sustainable development of the company. This study considers accountability as one of the most important tasks of transparent business functioning as well as a necessary condition for achieving sustainable development goals. The article proves the thesis that accounting methods should be developed to form, summarize, and analyze information about initiatives, processes, and the use of resources to increase the sustainability of the company’s development and to meet the requirements of key stakeholder groups, including in the direction of the impact of business decisions on society and the environment.
TWO-PHASE FLOW MEASUREMENT THROUGH AN ORIFICE METER WITH REGRESSION ANALYSIS
Authors: Khuntia Aswini Kumar , Panda Santosh Kumar , Misra Souren
Published: October 2024

Orifice is a very simple fluid flow measuring device. Pressure drop (Δp) is vital along the cross section of the orifice for the prediction of flow rate (m) in relation to fluid flow problems. Flow measurement in a single phase is greatly resolved whereas multiphase flows need more experimental and numerical studies. Many correlations are developed through experimental and numerical studies, but further studies will greatly resolve the multiphase problem. The Δp along the orifice depends on the Reynolds number (Re), area ratio (AR), and volume fraction (α) of air-water mixture flow. In the present work, a numerical analysis is conducted by varying the above parameters, Re < 100,000, 0.2 < AR < 0.7, and 0.1 < α < 0.9). Then the present work uses machine learning (ML) to calculate the Δp and is employed to calculate m. The ML techniques used in this analysis include gradient boosting regression, polynomial regression, and random forest regression and the support vector machine algorithm. The best possible solution is obtained with ML techniques and the same is compared with the existing database for a concentric orifice. The study will help to design the flow meter for two-phase application in an effective manner.
Insight into the seismic response of gravity retaining walls
Authors: TSANTILAS L. , GARINI E. , GAZETAS G.
Published: October 2024

An extensive study of gravity walls subjected to strong seismic excitation is presented, exploring the role of parameters such as the width of wall, the type of excitation (idealised wavelets or recorded accelerograms), the peak ground acceleration (PGA), the dominant period (TP) of the wavelets, the accelerogram’s polarity and the coefficient of friction of the wall–soil interface. The retaining and foundation soil consists of dry sand layers modelled by a refined constitutive model. Appropriate interface elements, allowing separation and sliding, model the wall–soil interface. Results are presented mainly in terms of time histories and dimensionless soil pressure distributions. Both horizontal and vertical seismic soil pressures are explored and compared with the classical Mononobe–Okabe-type and Rankine-type pseudostatic analytical solutions. It is shown that reduced acceleration coefficients must be input in such solutions to obtain reasonable results.
Air Fixation and AFM: A Comparative Study of Nanoparticle-Induced Topographical Changes in Lung Cells
Authors: Yeşilay Gamze
Published: October 2024

Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) have emerged as promising agents in biomedical applications due to their unique physicochemical properties. This study investigates the cellular interactions of AuNPs with A549 (non-small cell lung adenocarcinoma) and BEAS-2B (normal bronchial epithelial) cell lines. AuNPs were synthesized via the citrate reduction method, resulting in 20, 50, and 70 nm particles.
Cells were incubated with AuNPs for increasing durations (30 minutes, 4 hours, and 24 hours). Post-incubation, cells were washed with PBS, air-fixed, and subsequently analyzed using Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) to obtain detailed topographical maps. AFM imaging revealed distinct interactions between AuNPs and the two cell lines.
A549 cells displayed darker regions on the cell surface, indicative of topographical depressions likely resulting from nanoparticle-induced membrane collapse. In contrast, BEAS-2B cells did not exhibit such depressions, which is consistent with the literature that suggests cancer cells are mechanically softer than normal cells.
The surface roughness analysis results indicated that the preservation of surface integrity post-fixation validates the air-fixation methodology for obtaining reliable mechanical data from AFM analyses.
Accompagner l’autonomie des publics précaires
Authors: LEPERS Eléonore
Published: October 2024

En France, les lois sur la formation professionnelle de 2014 et de 2018 mettent l’accent sur la sécurisation des parcours, les compétences clés et l’autonomisation des personnes. C’est dans ce contexte qu’a vu le jour le dispositif de formation « compétences clés 2018-2023 » dans la région Hauts-de-France. Les programmes proposés dans ce cadre (« Se former pour lire, écrire, agir », « Dynamique vers l’emploi » et « Langues étrangères ») s’appuient notamment sur l’autoformation accompagnée et la pédagogie personnalisée (Carré - Tétart, 2003). Ces formations ont pour particularité d’être animées par des formateurs dont les conditions d’exercice de l’activité sont parfois précaires et s’adressent à un public fragile, dont les conditions d’existence sont difficiles au quotidien. A travers une recherche qualitative basée sur l’analyse d’entretiens semi-directifs et de séances d’observation menées dans un centre de formation auprès de formateurs et de stagiaires, cette contribution vise à montrer les impacts de la précarité vécue par les deux acteurs par rapport à la relation d’accompagnement instaurée.

Authors: Zahra Fathimatuz , Hakim Moch Nasrul , Wibowo A.M. , Istiyani Dwi
Published: October 2024

Interethnic cemeteries, often overlooked by historians, possess great cultural and sociological value. This study analyses the Jepuro cemeteries in Juwana, Pati, highlighting their importance in the religious moderation of the region. These cemeteries reflect the community’s ability to manage ethnic and religious diversity with little conflict. The study addresses three key questions: the influence of interethnic funerals on the community’s philosophy and notion of religious moderation, and the impact of remains in the graves. Through a qualitative approach, observations, and interviews with residents, it is concluded that the cultural diversity brought by immigrants through the port of Tanjungpuro fostered religious moderation in the region. The variety of gravestones reflects a historical understanding of moderation being restored, and the interethnic burials show that religious moderation has been transmitted over generations. Preserving these cemeteries is not just important, it is essential, as they represent the community's multicultural legacy and its commitment to religious peace. It is suggested that local authorities protect these monuments and integrate their history into educational programs.

Estimation of the Effect of Electric Vehicles on the Aging of Distribution Transformers Using Fuzzy Logic
Authors: Akar Onur
Published: October 2024

Depending on industrialization and technological advancements worldwide, the demand for electrical energy, recognized as clean and dependable energy, is on the rise. Presently, electric energy consumption has notably increased alongside the rise in Electric Vehicles (EVs). The surge in EVs necessitates a thorough examination of the situation, anticipating the widespread adoption of Electric Vehicle Fast Charging Stations (EVFCS) in the near future and the subsequent escalation of their adverse impact on the grid. To mitigate these negative effects on the grid, proactive measures are essential. EVs function as capacitive loads due to their battery composition, and the harmonics produced during their grid connection detrimentally affect the quality of grid electricity, leading to constraints. Furthermore, the escalating EVFCS loads resulting from the rapid growth in EV numbers distribute the burden on distribution networks, posing a threat to network adequacy and reliability. Therefore, integrating EVFCS with distribution and generation units to minimize overloading, additional losses, and voltage fluctuations in the grid will enhance the efficiency of both systems. In addition, each EVFCS is only connected to the distribution transformer assigned to it or to the distribution transformers considered suitable in the city. Depending on the current drawn by one or more EVFCS linked to the feeder of each transformer, it can lead to overloading in transformers and chemical changes in windings and oils, resulting in the aging of transformers. In this context, a FL-based estimation is conducted to assess the impact of EVs' charging loads on transformer aging. The FL method utilizes transformer current load, EVFCS load, transformer temperature, and harmonic power quality data. The data utilized are derived from statistical information about a local distribution network and measured values from a feeder, and the aging effects on EVFCS distribution transformers are examined.

Published: October 2024

BACKGROUND: Distraction arthroplasty of the ankle joint is the treatment method used for the cases of terminal osteoarthritis of the ankle joint that allows for delaying the arthrodesis or the total endoprosthesis replacement. The therapeutic effect is being achieved due to the separation of the articular surfaces (arthrodiastasis) with using the Ilizarov frame (or other devices for external fixation) for a period of 8–12 weeks. Only one research was described with the patients undergoing repeated arthroscopy of the ankle joint after the distraction arthroplasty in a combination with microfracturing of the cartilage defects, or repeated arthroscopy at the moment of removing the external fixation device (after 3 months).
АIM: To study the changes in the articular surfaces according to the Outerbridge before and after the distraction arthroplasty of the ankle joint using the repeated arthroscopy of the ankle joint.
METHODS: A total of 17 distraction arthroplasty surgical interventions of the ankle joint were performed (7 [41.2%] females and 10 [58.8%] males; the mean age of the patients was 48.5±13.57 years). Repeated arthroscopy of the ankle joint due to the recurrence of anterior impingement-syndrome after the distraction arthroplasty of the ankle joint within up to 12 months from the moment of removing the Ilizarov frame was carried out in 4 patients. For the evaluation of the treatment results, the Foot and Ankle Ability Measure (FAAM) scales were used, with an evaluation of pain, functions, deformity and the alignment of the foot and of the ankle joint (АОFAS Ankle-hindfoot scale), with subjective evaluation of pain (VAS); the status of the cartilage tissue in the ankle joint was evaluated using the modified Outerbridge scale.
RESULTS: In all the patients, a statistically significant improvement of the functional result was found in 12 months from the moment of surgery when using the FAAM (р=0.0006) and АОFAS Ankle-hindfoot scales, as well as after removing the Ilizarov frame in 1, 3 and 6 months. The pain intensity according to the VAS scale has decreased from 6.17±1.32 cm before surgery to 2 cm (1.4; 2.1) (p=0.00002) in 12 months. The arthroscopic findings upon the repeated interventions demonstrate the development of the massive arthrofibrosis with its further degradation to the end of 6 months, also showing the restoration of the cartilage defects from Outerbridge grade IV to grade II–III.
CONCLUSION: Upon the repeated arthroscopy, including the one performed at the end of 12 months after the distraction arthroplasty of the ankle joint, signs of regeneration were observed in the cartilage tissue defects with further defect coverage with a cartilage-like tissue, which, probably, determines the analgesic effect of the distraction arthroplasty of the ankle joint.

BACKGROUND: There is a paucity of scientific literature investigating the potential correlation between the geographical distance between an individual's initial and final place of residence and the risk of psychosomatic disorders in those experiencing significant emotional and mental loads.
AIM: To develop an integrative index for the assessment of the risk of psychosomatic disorders in young adults who are changing their place of residence.
MATERIAL AND METHODS: The study included medical students at the Volgograd State Medical University (97 males and 99 females between the ages of 18 and 22 years). The proportion of non-residents was 44% (45 respondents) of males and 60% (61 respondents) of females. The cross-sectional study was performed during the spring examinations in June 2023, i.e., at 9 months after the start of the academic year and change of residence by non-resident students. The symptoms of psychosomatic disorders were identified using the Gurvich Psychological Adaptation Test. The Giessen Subjective Complaints List and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) were used to report somatic symptoms and anxiety/depression, respectively. The severity of suicidal ideation was assessed using the Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS). The geographical distance (km) between an individual's initial and final place of residence distances was calculated.
RESULTS: A direct, statistically significant correlation has been identified between the severity of psychosomatic disorders and the distance travelled by young adults migrating from their place of previous residence to their final destination. The potential for migration-related risk of medical conditions is classified into four categories based on geographical distance intervals: up to 20 km, up to 400 km, up to 800 km, and over 800 km. The critical values of the migration-related risk of psychosomatic disorders have been calculated for males and females. The most significant risk factor for the onset of psychosomatic disorders in young adults is the geographical distance between their current place of residence and their previous place of residence, with a range of 400 to 800 km.
CONCLUSION: The correlation between the geographical distance between an individual's initial and final place of residence and the risk of psychosomatic disorders in those in those experiencing significant emotional and mental loads has been described.

BACKGROUND: The development and approval of plant-derived branded drugs have emerged as promising areas in the pharmaceutical industry. Red clover (Trifolium pratense L.) has historically been used in folk medicine as a source of biologically active substances with medicinal properties. Red clover is a widely abundant and easily extractable plant, offering a high cost-efficiency. Therefore, red clover extracts may reasonably be proposed as a potential source for the development of new promising pharmaceuticals.
AIM: To evaluate the pharmaceutical potential of biologically active extracts of red clover.
MATERIAL AND METHODS: The study involved a systematic review of scientific literature sourced from the PubMed biomedical database. A review of the literature was conducted over a 50-year period. The preliminary keyword-based search yielded 1,194 articles. Of these, 41 publications were selected for further analysis, as they were deemed to be the most relevant to the subject matter of the study.
RESULTS: Red clover (Trifolium pratense L.) is a widespread, perennial officinal herb. Herbal extracts have been demonstrated to have a wide range of biological activities. The majority of these compounds are isoflavones, flavonoids, saponins, clovamides, and phenolic acids. Isoflavones are phytoestrogens that have demonstrated efficacy in the treatment of female reproductive system diseases. Moreover, scientific studies have evidenced their anti-inflammatory and reparative potential, along with efficacy in the prevention and treatment of metabolic disorders. Flavonoids, saponins, clovamides, and phenolic acids have been documented to produce antioxidant and antiplatelet effects.
CONCLUSION: Among biologically active extracts of red clover, isoflavones have been identified as the most promising for pharmacological applications. Furthermore, there are other compounds with a well-documented therapeutic potential that require further investigation to develop novel branded drugs.

BACKGROUND: Kidney injury takes approximately 1–5% of all urinary tract and abdominal cavity injuries. Children blunt trauma amounts more than 90% of all kidney damages. Kidney injury is always followed by pain in the lumbar region and abdomen as well as by hematoma and hematuria. Serious renal injuries in children are more often accompanied by stable vital functions and normal general urine analyses compared to adults. Such patients require dynamic observation and instrumental examination so as to determine further curative strategy.
CLINICAL CASE DESCRIPTION: This article describes three clinical cases of kidney injury in children. In the first case, ultrasound examination and computed tomography revealed contusion changes in the kidney, subcapsular hematoma and renal parenchyma rupture without damage of the collecting system. Due to clinical findings, ultrasound and computed tomography examination, conservative management was prescribed to one patient, while for the other two with renal parenchyma rupture — surgery. One of these patients had malformation — a gap between the upper and lower segments of the double kidney. Such malformation could aggravate the injury.
CONCLUSION: The present series of clinical observations is an example of managing children with kidney injuries of varying severity. Depending on the damage severity, conservative management or surgical tactics are chosen by specialists.
Le genre comme rapport d’inégalité sociale dans le discours publicitaire
Authors: Soulages Jean-Claude
Published: October 2024

Résumé: Loin de se réduire à une simple transaction commerciale, une annonce publicitaire est un espace de croyances sur des identités, des rôles et des pratiques sociales. Au même titre que d’autres productions fictionnelles de la culture de masse, elle représente l’une des faces de ce miroir social alimenté par la circulation incessante d’attitudes et de croyances, affichant même s’il s’agit bien souvent pour cette dernière d’un positionnement ludique, un second monde peuplé par nos avatars. La publicité tout comme le fait la fiction télévisée définit l’horizon des possibles d’une communauté donnée. Ce qu’elles réalisent toutes deux c’est l’entrée de l’imaginaire dans le réel. Même si, à partir des années 70, s’opère un lent défigement des stéréotypes sexistes, le publicitaire ne se fera aucunement le porte-parole explicite d’une quelconque lutte féministe, il optera toujours pour une tactique ambivalente de double speak: des effets de décadrage mettant en exergue des situations délibérément décalées ou burlesques (Un homme qui change les couches de bébé! Un clown qui fait la lessive!), mais cristallisant des inégalités de rôles. En jouant tout à la fois sur le défigement et la réactivation des stéréotypes, c’est bien un rôle de passeur et de go between, qu’est assigné le publicitaire en se faisant l’arbitre ventriloque de ces conflits de légitimité et de construction identitaire qui agitent notre modernité.Mots clés: media; publicité; image; fiction; télévision.Abstract: Far from being reduced to a simple commercial transaction, an advertisement is a space of faiths on identities, roles and social practices. In the same way as the other fictional productions of the mass culture, the TV commercial represents one of the faces of this social mirror fed by the ceaseless circulation of attitudes and faiths, showing even if it is very often a question of an ironic positioning, a second world populated by our avatars. Advertising defines the horizon of the possible for a community. What it realizes is the entry of the imaginaries into reality. Even if, from the 70s on, a slow change of the sexist stereotypes takes place, the operation of deconstruction of the male picture is going to be very gradually made under certain completely particular modalities. The advertiser will never be the explicit spokesman of any feminist fight, he will always opt for an ambivalent tactics of double speech: effects of distortion highlighting deliberately moved or comic situations (a man changing baby’s coats! A clown who does the laundry!). By playing quite at the same time on the deconstruction and the reactivation of stereotypes, the advertiser plays his role of go-between in the conflicts of legitimacy and identity construction of the second modernity.Keywords: Media; Advertising; Image; Fiction; Television.
