Authors: Altuntas Emrah , Ceyhan Bilgici Meltem , Elmalı Muzaffer , Onar Arda , Bas Orhan
Published: November 2023

Background::

CT findings and Ground glass opacity (GGO) volumes may differ between
SARS CoV-2 non-variant, alpha, delta, and omicron variants.

Objective::

To compare the thoracic CT findings, GGO volumes, and GGOs’ lung uptake rates
among patients with COVID-19 variants.

Methods::

Thoracic CT images of 83 patients with non-variant, 78 patients with alpha variant, 93
patients with delta variant, and 73 patients with omicron variant having positive Real-Time Polymerase
Chain Reaction test results were analyzed retrospectively. GGO volumes and lung volumes
were calculated by using the Cavalieri Principle. Differences in CT findings, ground-glass
opacity volumes, and lung involvement rates between non-variant and variant groups were evaluated.

Results::

There were significant differences found in the incidence of GGOs (p < 0.001), air bronchogram
(p = 0.007), reticulation (p = 0.002) and subpleural lines, and linear opacities (p = 0.034)
between non-variant and variant groups. GGO uptake rates (ground glass opacity volumes × 100
÷ lung volume) were 8.88% in the non-variant, 4.83% in the alpha variant, 3.50% in the delta
variant, and 2.02% in the omicron variant. In estimating variant groups, it was determined that the
increase in the rate of GGOs in the right lung increased the probability of having an omicron
variant, whereas the presence of nodules decreased it. The possibility of the delta variant increased
with an increase in the rate of ground glass opacities in the left lung.

Conclusion::

Thoracic CT findings solely can be helpful in distinguishing COVID-19 variants. Decreased
frequency of uptake rates of GGOs suggested that the severity of COVID-19 disease was
gradually decreasing.
Left Ventricular Pressure Strain Loops for Evaluation of Myocardial Work in
Type 2 Diabetic Patients with Hypertension
Authors: Huang Mei-Feng , Yuan Xin-Chun , Zeng Xi , Zhang Zhe-Yuan , Xia Qing-Qing , Zhou Zhi-Yu
Published: November 2023

Background::

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and hypertension (HT) are the two most common underlying diseases worldwide, and they often coexist. The
long-term existence of both may lead to left ventricular dysfunction. Therefore, evaluating the cardiac function of T2DM patients with HT is vital
to guide treatment and improve prognosis. Left ventricular pressure strain loops (LVPSL) combine left ventricular strain and afterload, which can
quantify left ventricular energy expenditure and detect left ventricular subclinical systolic dysfunction. Many studies have focused on myocardial
work (MW) in uncomplicated T2DM patients or simple HT patients, but a few have focused on T2DM patients with HT.

Objective::

The study aimed to evaluate the MW changes in T2DM patients with HT using LVPSL and to find independent related factors of MW parameters.

Methods::

40 T2DM patients, 35 HT patients, 40 T2DM patients with HT (T2DM+HT group), and 35 controls were enrolled. The differences between
clinical data, conventional ultrasound parameters, and MW parameters were analyzed among the four groups.

Results::

The global longitudinal strain (GLS) of the T2DM group, HT group, and T2DM+HT group was lower than the control group (P<0.05). The global
work index (GWI) and global constructive work (GCW) in the T2DM group were lower than other groups (P<0.05). The GWI of the HT group
was higher than other groups (P<0.05), while GCW was only higher than the T2DM group and T2DM+HT group (P<0.05). The GWI and GCW of
the T2DM+HT group were higher than the T2DM group and were lower than the HT group(P<0.05), while there was no significant difference
with the control group. HT group and T2DM+HT group had higher global work waste (GWW) (P<0.05). The global work efficiency (GWE) of the
T2DM+HT group was lower than other groups (P<0.05). Systolic blood pressure (SBP) and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) were independent
factors of each MW parameter.

Conclusion::

LVPSL can recognize left ventricular subclinical systolic dysfunction early in patients with T2DM and HT. Compared to simple T2DM or HT, the
combination of T2DM and HT had greater damage to left ventricular systolic function. SBP and HbA1c are two factors that have a considerable
impact on MW parameters. The impact of afterload on MW parameters should be paid more attention to.

COVID-19 Pneumonia: A Descriptive Study
Authors: Tian Ye , Wang Yuqiong , Liu Min , Huang Xu , Zhang Yi , Wu Xiaojing , Huang Linna , Cui Xiaoyang , Gu Sichao , Zhan Qingyuan
Published: November 2023

Background:

In late December 2019, Wuhan, the capital of Hubei Province, China, became the center of an outbreak of pneumonia caused by severe acute
respiratory syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2).

Introduction:

The radiological changes in the lungs of critical people with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pneumonia at different times have not been
fully characterized. We aim to describe the computed tomography findings of patients with critical COVID-19 pneumonia at different disease
stages.

Methods:

Clinical and laboratory features of critical patients were assessed. CT scans were assigned to groups 1, 2, 3, or 4 based on the interval from
symptom onset (within 2 weeks; ≥ 2-4 weeks; ≥ 4-6 weeks; or ≥ 6 weeks, respectively). Imaging features were analyzed and compared across the
four groups. Total CT scores, corresponding periods of laboratory findings, and glucocorticoid dosages during the imaging intervals were
longitudinally observed in five patients with complete data.

Results:

All 11 critical patients (median age: 60 years [42-69]) underwent a total of 40 CT examinations, and the acquisition times ranged from 1-59 days
after symptom onset. Median total CT scores were 18 (9-25.25); 44.5 (42.88-47.62); 43.75 (38.62-49.38); and 42 (32.25-53.25) in groups 1, 2, 3,
and 4, respectively. The observed lesions were mainly bilateral (37 [92.5%]). The median values of involved lung segments were 10.5 (4.5-13.5);
17 (16-18.5); 18 (18-19.5); and 18 (18-19) in groups 1-4, respectively. The predominant patterns of observed abnormalities were ground-glass
opacities (GGO) (9 [90%]); GGO with reticulation and mixed patterns (3 [37.5%] for both); GGO with consolidation (3 [30%]); and GGO with
reticulation (8 [66.7%]) in groups 1-4, respectively. Patients developed fibrotic manifestations at later stages.

Conclusion:

Critical patients with COVID-19 infection generally presented with temporally changing abnormal CT features from focal unilateral to diffuse
bilateral GGO and consolidation that progressed to or coexisted with reticulation in the long term after symptom onset. Low-dose glucocorticoids
may be effective in patients with interstitial changes on CT findings.

Authors: Cha Jung Guen , Hong Jihoon , Kim Gab Chul , Park Byunggeon , Park Jongmin , Park Seo Young , Shin Kyung Min , Lim Jae-Kwang , Lee So Mi
Published: November 2023

Background::

The efficacy of bronchial artery embolization (BAE) for bronchial Dieulafoy’s disease (BDD) has not been well established.

Objective::

This study aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of BAE in patients with clinically suspected BDD presenting with major hemoptysis, and to
describe angiographic findings.

Methods::

17 patients (all men; mean age, 53.5 years) diagnosed with clinically suspected BDD by bronchoscopy (n = 7) or CT angiography (CTA) (n = 10)
and who underwent BAE after directional and segmental localization of the target bronchus were enrolled. BAE was performed at the culprit
bronchial artery traveling toward the target bronchus, regardless of the pathologic angiographic findings. Angiographic findings and clinical
outcomes of BAE, including technical and clinical success, complication, recurrent hemoptysis, and follow-up imaging, were retrospectively
reviewed.

Results::

Representative angiographic findings included parenchymal hypervascularity prominent in the lobe where the BDD was located (82.4%), bronchial
artery hypertrophy (70.6%), and contrast extravasation into the bleeding bronchus (17.6%). BAE was technically successful in all patients. All
hemoptysis ceased within 24 h. No procedure-related complications occurred. During a mean follow-up of 491.9 days, 1 (6%) patient experienced
recurrent hemoptysis. Follow-up bronchoscopy or CT performed in 10 (58.8%) patients showed the disappearance of pre-existing lesions (n = 9) or
glue cast within the target bronchial artery (n = 1).

Conclusion::

Bronchial angiography showed pathologic findings in most patients with clinically suspected BDD. BAE assisted by bronchoscopy or CTA
localization is a safe and effective treatment for patients with clinically suspected BDD with excellent short- to mid-term results.
Astatine-211 Radiopharmaceuticals; Status, Trends, and the Future
Authors: Rabiei Mobina , Asadi Mahboobeh , Yousefnia Hassan
Published: November 2023

The low range of alpha particles provides an opportunity to better target cancer cells
theoretically leading to the introduction of interesting alpha emitter radiopharmaceuticals including
225Ac, 212Pb, etc. The combination of high energy and short range of alpha emitters differentiates
targeted radiotherapy from other methods and reduces unwanted cytotoxicity of the
cells around the tumoral tissue. Among interesting alpha emitters candidates for targeted therapy,
211At, one of the radioisotopes with the best optimal decay properties, shows great promise
for targeted radiotherapy in some animal prostate cancer xenograft studies and bone micro tumors
with significant effects compared to other beta and alpha emitters and also demonstrates
interesting properties for clinical applications. However, production and application of this alpha
emitter in the development of actinium-based radiopharmaceuticals is hampered by many
obstacles. This mini-review demonstrates 211At production methods, chemical separation, radiolabeling
procedures, 211At-radiopharmaceuticals and their clinical trials, transport, logistics, and
costs and future trends in the field for ultimate clinical applications. This review showed that
there are limited clinical trials on 211Ac-based radiopharmaceuticals, which is due to the low
accessibility of this radioisotope and other limitations. However, the development programs of
major industries indicate the development of 211Ac-based radiopharmaceuticals in the future.

Performance of the Building Envelope
Authors: Ashraf Ali Nouran , Sadek Samir , Abdin Ahmed
Published: November 2023

The greatest threat of the 21st century is global warming. The building sector is a major
contributor to energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. About 60% of the total energy
consumed in the buildings is caused by HVAC systems. Nanotechnology is an emerging technology
that can introduce innovative materials in the building sector which offers great potential for development
of innovative building products to enhance performance and energy efficiency of the building.
Nanomaterials are a promising candidate for building thermal insulation. This paper presents a
theoretical overview of twenty case-based scenarios on the application of nanomaterials to reduce
energy consumption in buildings. A comprehensive list of different nanomaterials is reviewed from
the literature, as non-structural, insulation, and thermal energy storage materials to improve the insulation
performance of the building. Extensive testing and simulation modelling have turned out to
be the most popular in this area of research methods for experimental and theoretical studies. The
combination of these methods can yield a reliable technique for studying nanomaterials. Finally,
embedding nanomaterials into building walls, floors, and roofs can reduce energy consumption and
enhance thermal performance of a building’s envelope.

Published: November 2023

Gastrointestinal (GI) cancers are an important health problem globally. Natriuretic
peptides are hormones that have a crucial role in human physiology. There are a variety of
treatments for GI cancer, but conventional therapies have side effects and low efficacy. Studies
have demonstrated that natriuretic peptides are therapeutic in different cancer types. Natriuretic
peptides are best known for their involvement in regulating blood pressure and blood volume.
The anti-tumor effect exerted by natriuretic peptides is via their inhibitory effects on DNA synthesis
and by their effects on apoptosis. The anti-proliferative role of natriuretic peptides has
been shown in human breast cancer, prostate, colon, pancreatic, lung, ovarian, and other tumors.
The roles of natriuretic peptides in these cancers are diverse and not well understood. Therefore,
we have reviewed the recent literature on natriuretic peptides in GI cancers as a common malignancy
in adults to assess the pathways that NPs are involved in the progression of GI cancers
and its effect on the prevention or treatment of GI cancers.

India has an extensive livestock wealth with a growing rate of 6% per
annum with a crucial role in the Indian economy. The livestock sector is one of the
important subsectors of agriculture, which contributes 25.6% of total agriculture GDP.
The arrival of deep sequencing technologies such as Next Generation Sequencing
(NGS) and Single Cell Sequencing (SCS) has produced huge sequence data that can be
exploited to advance well being, health, reproduction and yield of livestocks by
employment of integrated omics strategies. The current era of omics, i.e., genomics,
transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics, translatomics and single-cell sequencing,
has considerably improved researcher's understanding of livestock research at the gene
level and opened new avenues in terms of single-cell studies, which need to be carried
out in the near future. NGS plays a crucial role in understanding the genetic mechanism
of animal’s functions and its interaction with the environment. Furthermore, the SCS
will provide insight into the functions of cell types in livestock species. The data
generated using NGS and SCS approaches may help to discover novel molecular
markers from the complete genome and develop global diagnostic methods for the
detection of infectious diseases and their agents.

Nano-materials were utilized as therapeutics and diagnostics agents in the
context of human medicine. However, the application of nanoparticles in the field of
livestock animals is still at a nascent stage. The proper utilization of nanoparticles in
livestock sciences, such as improvement in milk production, diagnosis of varied
diseases, delivery of nutrients and/or in their reproduction, offers prospective outcomes
which have direct implications to meet the ever-growing human populations. Further,
with the advent of high throughput omics technologies, noteworthy development in the
past decades has paved the way to advanced systems biology area. The high throughput
data handling from diverse omics methodologies and making a holistic interpretation
posed a challenge, moreover, to connect the dots and present a larger picture of the
intricate network level data, systems biology comes to the rescue. The design and
advancement in different algorithms of systems biology tools seldom help one to
integrate multi-layered data. Systems biology is applied to livestock animals and
poultry for their overall development and/or risk assessment for their diseases. In this
chapter, we discussed the implementation of nanobiotechnology and systems biology
approaches to livestock animals. We illustrated a few examples of how the application
of nanotech and systems biology improved some desired qualities in livestock. This
chapter summarizes the ongoing research and efforts of different groups, along with the
future prospects of innovative technologies in the area of nanotech and systems

Published: November 2023

Dry socket (alveolar osteitis) is the most commonly encountered complication after tooth extraction in humans, and this has been widely reported. Dry socket lesion, although it is a self-limiting condition, the pain and discomfort that the patient complains of leads to lost days at work and many visits to the hospital. The exact and confirmed etiopathogenesis for dry sockets has yet to be well understood. This study aimed to determine the frequency, clinical picture, and risk factors for dry sockets. A total of 995 patients were included in this study. There were 593 (59.6%) male patients and 402 (40.4%) female patients. The age of patients ranged from 14 -70 years, with a mean of 33.9 ± 11.32 years, from January 2013 to March 2015. All consecutive patients were referred to the surgery Department in Al-Karama specialized dentistry center in Baghdad for consultation. A total of 995 patients were included in this study. Out of 995, 68 patients developed dry sockets (6.83%). Those patients who developed sockets et were between (18-67) years(mean 33.9,sd+11.32), most of them in the third decade of life; there were 593 (59.6%) male patients and 402 (40.4%) female patients with a higher percentage of dry sockets than the female group, 33(48.5%) of 68 cases who developed dry sockets had surgical extraction. There were significant differences in the development of socket pockets between the removal of the two teeth done surgically (51.5%) or non-surgically (48.5%), p= 0.033. The frequency of AO reported in this study is higher than the overall incidence of studies registered. There were significant differences concerning the patient's age and dry socket. There is no relationship between smoking and the occurrence of dry sockets found in the present study. It has been shown that the frequency of AO increases in patients with poor oral hygiene in the literature. Clinically, the picture of the dry socket that includes pain, empty socket and exposed bone were found in all patients. Keywords: Dry socket, frequency, risk factor, oral hygiene, surgical extraction

Study Gene Expression of blaOXA-48 andblaVIM-1Genes CarbapenemsResistance in Klebsiella Pneumoniae isolated from urinary
tract infections in Baghdad hospital's
Authors: Hafez Aboud Zeaid , M. Shami AbdulMuhsin , Jawad Kadhim Barra
Published: November 2023

Klebsiella pneumoniae has emerged as one of the eight most essential causes of
urinary tract infection (UTI), with increasing resistance to antibiotics, especially
carbapenems. About one hundred-eight urine samples were collected from inpatients and outpatients who attended. They were collected at three Baghdad hospitals: two from Karkh (AL-Yarmouk Hospital and Al-karamu Hospital) and one
from Rusafa (AL-Baghdad Educational Hospital). A minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) test was done using the Microtiter plate method and demonstrated
different resistance levels against meropenem antibiotics. Gene expression of
blaOXA-48 and blaVIM-1 genes was performed when treated with meropenem
antibiotic using the Real-time PCR technique. The study showed that the highest
value of gene expression in the blaOXA-48 gene was recorded for the resistant
group was (1.8705), and the lowest value of gene expression in the OXA-48 gene
before treated with the meropenem group was (1.0312). The gene expression value in the non-treated group was (0.97) control.
In contrast, A slight increase in gene expression value for the blaVIM-1 gene was
recorded for the meropenem-treated group (1.8705), and the sensitive group had
a gene expression value of (1.00). The lowest value was in the gene expression of
the meropenem-treated group (1.0312), as well as an increase in the value of the
expression. The genotype of the blaVIM-1gene for the meropenem-treated group
(1.828) is based on the 2-ΔCt method for both genes. When using the 2-ΔΔCt
method, gene expression differed slightly in both genes. When relying on the 2-
ΔΔCt method, both genes' gene expression was slightly different. It was concluded that the coexistence of blaVIM-1 and blaOXA-48 genes in four strains of K.
pneumoniae indicated widespread VIM-1 and OXA-48 in Baghdad, Iraq.

Amis: NAFLD is considered to be the most common cause of liver conditions
worldwide. Also, it is a primary reason that leads to coronary artery diseases, limiting blood flow to the heart. Therefore, This study aimed to evaluate the serum
level of Nesfatin-1 and its ability to indicate the prognosis of CAD in patients
with NAFLD. Material & Methods: one-hundred eighty Individuals were enrolled in the study, including
In both genders, blood was collected from each Individual and sent to the laboratory for biochemical tests. Findings: Data from the current study showed a significant increase in Nesfatin-1 in the CAD group and a significant decrease in
Nesfatin-1 in the NAFLD group compared to the control group. In addition, there
was also a significant increase in both cardiac parameters and AST in the CAD
group compared to the NAFLD group and the control group. Conclusion: Patients
with coronary artery disease have higher Nesfatin-1 Concentration due to Nesfatin-1 having anti-inflammatory properties that raise the level of Nesfatin-1. In addition, Data from the current study showed a significant positive correlation between Nesfatin-1 and (ALT and AST) in NAFLD patients. However, further
studies are needed to confirm this conclusion.

Examining how PMMA and polyamide denture base materials'
physical characteristics are affected by electrolyzed water used as a
denture cleaner
Authors: Adnan Abed Ahmed , Mohammed Al-Khafaji Aseel
Published: November 2023

Denture cleansing is an essential step that can stop cross‑contamination and adds to
the health of the patient, denture durability, and the general quality of life. A disinfection technique must be practical and devoid of damaging effects on the material's properties used to construct the denture base. The main aim of this study is
to evaluate the effect of three concentrations of electrolyzed water denture cleanser
on heat cure acrylic and polyamide after immersion in electrolyzed water. The
evaluation is based on their efficacy on surface hardness, wettability, and color
stability compared with one submerged in distilled water as a control group. The
method consists of eighty samples of heat-cured acrylic and polyamide material.
The samples were immersed in electrolyzed water at a concentration of
(100-200ppm) and in distilled water for 5 minutes, 30 times, and daily for 12 days
to simulate a one-year interval. The tests showed that the surface hardness and
color stability were maintained, with no significant difference between the control
and experimental groups. In comparison, the result of wettability showed a statistically significant difference between the control and experimental groups. Thus,
electrolyzed water does not affect the surface hardness and color stability of
heat-cure acrylic and polyamide denture base materials. However, the wettability
of these materials was significantly increased.

Trong nghiên cứu này, vật liệu graphene (GR) được chế tạo từ thanh graphite sử dụng phương pháp bóc tách điện hóa với các loại điện áp khác nhau đặt vào hai đầu điện cực, bao gồm các điện áp không đổi 6 V, 8 V, 10 V và kỹ thuật thế bậc thang hai giai đoạn từ 0-2 V và 2-10 V trong môi trường ammonium sulfate (NH4)2SO4. Kết quả chế tạo đã được khảo sát bằng các phép đo thế Zeta, kính hiển vi điện tử quét phát xạ trường (FE-SEM), kính hiển vi lực nguyên tử (AFM) và quang phổ Raman để xác định đặc trưng và cấu trúc của vật liệu GR. Thế Zeta thu được của GR-010 có giá trị -47,7 mV cho thấy hiệu quả phân tán trong môi trường nước, hiệu quả này do khả năng liên kết tốt với các ion âm ở bề mặt và biên của GR. Kết quả đo SEM và AFM cũng chỉ ra bề dày trung bình của các tấm GR-010 thu được vào cỡ 1,8 nm tương ứng 3-5 lớp GR, nhỏ hơn so với các mẫu GR-6, GR-8 và GR-10 tương ứng với các điện áp 6 V, 8 V và 10 V. Kết quả phân tích Raman cũng cho thấy mức độ sai hỏng của GR-010 thấp hơn so với GR-6, GR-8 và GR-10  với tỷ số ID/IG = 0,36.

Sóng đại diện và tham số là hai phương pháp phổ biển tính chiều cao sóng biển. Phương pháp sóng đại diện có độ chính xác thấp khi tính chiều cao sóng ý nghĩa. Tuy nhiên, phương pháp tham số cho kết quả tốt khi tính chiều cao sóng căn quân phương. Do đó, nghiên cứu này sẽ kiểm tra tính khả thi của việc sử dụng phương pháp tham số để tính chiều cao sóng ý nghĩa. Số lượng lớn số liệu sóng và sáu công thức của phương pháp tham số được thu thập để kiểm tra khả năng tính chiều cao sóng ý nghĩa và hiệu chỉnh hệ số để nâng cao khả năng tính. Kết quả cho thấy, sai số tính chiều cao sóng từ 9,9% đến 19,6%. Tuy nhiên, sai số chỉ còn từ 6,4% đến 9,5% sau khi hiệu chỉnh hệ số và công thức DT23 cho sai số tốt nhất. Để kiểm tra lại khả năng tính toán, bộ số liệu kiểm tra được sử dụng và kết quả cho thấy sai số đã giảm đáng kể khi hiệu chỉnh hệ số. Do đó, DT23 được đề xuất để tính chiều cao sóng ý nghĩa.

Representation of Family as a Social Unit in Arthur Miller’s Death of a Salesman and Mohan Rakesh’s Aadhe Adhure
Authors: Verma Saumya , Johri Dr Manjari
Published: November 2023

The following paper entails a study of family as a social unit. The research highlights the effects of socio-economic as well as cultural and political factors on the institution of family. The concept of family has been explored through Arthur Miller’s Death of a Salesman (1948) and Mohan Rakesh’s Aadhe Adhure (1969). The texts belong to two different geographical and cultural set-ups and portray two distinct timelines. The former text has been studied in the context of the failure of the American Dream and the latter in relation to the post-independence Indian disillusionment. This study aims to examine the impact of socio-political and economic context on the functioning of a family and seeks to identify the factors that influence familial relationships and affect the coherence of the institution.

Published: November 2023

An updated checklist of the caddisflies from the State of Oaxaca, Mexico is presented, based primarily on a bibliographic review. Fourteen families, 44 genera and 216 species of caddisflies have been recorded, 38 (17.51%) of which are endemic, and 9 species are recorded for the first time from Oaxaca. For each species, we describe its geographic distribution, provide references with distribution records, and highlight those that are endemic to Oaxaca and Mexico. Although there has been a significant increase in taxonomic work on Mexican caddisflies, it is still necessary to continue studying the systematics, ecology, and biogeography of Trichoptera from Oaxaca, especially in poorly explored regions.

Beyond Biomechanics: Gait Patterns as the Indicators of Masculine and Feminine Traits
Authors: S Savin Mayur , M Prathiba , S Harshini
Published: November 2023

This research paper takes an exciting journey beyond traditional biomechanics, delving into the world of walking patterns as emblematic indicators of intrinsic masculine and feminine traits. Using a complex mix of different areas of study, the researchers uncover the fascinating story hidden within the human locomotion, a story deeply intertwined with the complex aspects of gender identity. By carefully analysing the way people walk or through kinematic analysis, this study uncovers subtle details that can give insight into how someone expresses their psychological gender. The researchers believe that gait dynamics is a kind of unspoken language that can communicate a wide range of gender expressions and how people understand them. This research suggests that the way we move goes beyond just physical mechanics—it's also connected to how society thinks about and defines gender roles. In challenging conventional ideas, this research suggests that the way we walk isn't just about our bodies, but also about the larger social ideas of what it means to be masculine or feminine. This study invites us to rethink how our bodies and societal ideas about gender interact. In doing so, it reveals a hidden conversation through which our bodies communicate, shedding light on the intricate relationship between our physicality and the cultural symbols that shape our experiences as human beings.

Published: November 2023

Law number 41 of 2004 concerning Waqf explains that the management and development of waqf land can be carried out by Nazhir in the form of a legal entity. However, there are still many mosques managed by the Foundation that still stand on non-waqf land or in this case the land status does not yet have legal documents such as certificates. This problem is also experienced by the "M" Mosque, one of the mosques in the city of Malang which has been established since 1983. This service program aims to provide assistance and legal knowledge to Foundation administrators regarding the legality registration of land assets regarding mosque management. This service uses the PAR (Participatory Action Research) method, where the stages include planning, implementation and evaluation activities. This legal assistance activity was carried out in January - July 2023. The results of the service showed that the reason the mosque was still standing on non-waqf land was the lack of knowledge of the Foundation management regarding land legality registration procedures. Appropriate assistance to be provided is in the form of counseling and processing legal documents in registering waqf certificates. This service activity through mentoring is carried out as a method of providing information about strategic steps in managing the Foundation's assets so that they are more optimal.
 
Abstract
Optimalisasi Status Aset Yayasan Melalui Pendampingan Pendaftaran Tanah Masjid “M” Kota Malang.
Undang-Undang No. 41 Tahun 2004 tentang Wakaf menjelaskan bahwa pengelolaan dan pengembangan tanah wakaf dapat dilakukan oleh Nazhir yang berbentuk badan hukum. Akan tetapi masih banyak masjid yang dikelola Yayasan masih berdiri di atas tanah non wakaf atau dalam hal ini status tanah belum memiliki dokumen legal seperti sertifikat. Persoalan ini yang juga dialami Masjid “M”, salah satu masjid di kota Malang yang telah berdiri sejak tahun 1983. Program pengabdian ini bertujuan untuk memberikan pendampingan dan pengetahuan hukum kepada pengurus Yayasan tentang pendaftaran legalitas aset tanah terhadap pengelolaan masjid. Pengabdian ini menggunakan metode PAR (Participatory Action Research), dimana tahapannya meliputi kegiatan perencanaan, pelaksanaan, dan evaluasi. Kegiatan pendampingan hukum ini dilaksanakan pada bulan Januari – Juli 2023. Hasil pengabdian diperoleh penyebab masjid masih berdiri di atas tanah non wakaf yaitu kurangnya pengetahuan pengurus Yayasan mengenai prosedur pendaftaran legalitas tanah. Pendampingan yang sesuai untuk diberikan yaitu dalam bentuk penyuluhan dan pengurusan dokumen-dokumen hukum dalam pendaftaran sertfikat wakaf. Kegiatan pengabdian melalui pendampingan ini dilakukan sebagai metode pemberian informasi tentang langkah strategis pengelolaan aset Yayasan agar lebih optimal.

Enhanced Gravitational Entanglement via Modulated Optomechanics
Authors: Plato A. Douglas K. , Rätzel Dennis , Wan Chuanqi
Published: November 2023

The role of entanglement in determining the non-classicality of a given interaction has gained significant traction over the last few years. In particular, as the basis for new experimental proposals to test the quantum nature of the gravitational field. Here we show that the rate of gravity mediated entanglement between two otherwise isolated optomechanical systems can be significantly increased by modulating the optomechanical coupling. This is most pronounced for low mass, high frequency systems – convenient for reaching the quantum regime – and can lead to improvements of several orders of magnitude, as well as a broadening of the measurement window. Nevertheless, significant obstacles still remain. In particular, we find that modulations increase decoherence effects at the same rate as the entanglement improvements. This adds to the growing evidence that the constraint on noise (acting on the position d.o.f) depends only on the particle mass, separation, and temperature of the environment and cannot be improved by novel quantum control. Finally, we highlight the close connection between the observation of quantum correlations and the limits of measurement precision derived via the Cramér-Rao Bound. An immediate consequence is that probing superpositions of the gravitational field places similar demands on detector sensitivity as entanglement verification.
