EFEKTIVITAS PENANGANAN KASUS KEKERASAN SEKSUAL TERHADAP PEREMPUAN PERSPEKTIF MAQASID ASY SYARIAH DI KEPOLISIAN RESOR DEMAK
Authors: Ifada Dania Saferina
Published: July 2023

Acts of sexual violence experienced by women in Indonesia still show high numbers. This figure is only a handful of the many cases of sexual violence because in reality there are still many women victims of sexual violence who do not report it to the police or service agencies such as the National Commission on Violence Against Women. This research was conducted with the aim of finding out how effective the handling of cases of sexual violence against women is, to find out what are the inhibiting factors and find out the solutions that can be used to prevent cases of sexual violence against women and to find out the effectiveness of handling sexual violence against women from the maqasid Asy-Syariah perspective. The method used in this study was a field search method. In this study, the researcher obtained information from the field and signed various informants in order to obtain correct results. The subjects of this research were the Demak Resort Police and the Women's and Children's Services Unit in providing explanations about women who were victims of sexual violence. The data analysis process was carried out by analyzing the effectiveness of the handling of cases of sexual violence against women by the Demak Resort Police in reducing the number of sexual violence against women in the city of Demak, analyzing the inhibiting factors and providing solutions in handling cases of sexual violence against women as well as the effectiveness of handling cases of sexual violence towards women from the maqasid asy-shariah perspective. Based on the findings and results of the analysis, it was found that the Demak Resort Police had made every effort to reduce the number of sexual violence against women. there are obstacles in dealing with cases of sexual violence against women such as limited funds, lack of human resources, limited facilities, and the presence of victims' families who do not want to report incidents of violence experienced by victims. The handling of the Demak Resort Police in dealing with cases of sexual violence from the maqasid asy-shari'ah perspective must be in line with the objectives of Islamic law, namely the protection of life, mind, lineage and property. In Islam, women must be treated special and get protection from a man. This is where a woman has the right to get self-protection, get respect and get proper treatment from a man so that women are not easy to become victims of sexual violence.

Published: July 2023

Early life stress (ELS) significantly increases susceptibility to alcohol use disorder (AUD) by affecting the interplay between executive and salience networks (SN). The link between AUD and higher body-mass index (BMI) is known, but we lack understanding of how BMI impacts the relationship between ELS and brain connectivity in individuals with AUD. To bridge this gap, we investigated the effects of ELS on brain connectivity in AUD participants, taking into account differences in BMI. The cohort included 401 individuals with AUD, with approximately 60% having a BMI ≥ 25. Within the overall cohort, 123 participants underwent resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging, revealing intriguing anticorrelations between SN seeds and brain regions involved in somatosensory processing, motor coordination, and executive control as an effect of ELS. Examining the relationship between ELS-driven brain connectivity and BMI, we observed negative correlations in connectivity among low BMI (≤ 24.9) vs. high BMI (≥ 25) individuals. For example, the left supramarginal gyrus (SMG) seed exhibited decreased connectivity with emotion regulation and decision-making regions, including the right occipital cortex, posterior cingulate cortex, and precuneus clusters (all |β| < -0.03, |p| < 0.05). Additionally, the right SMG seed showed reduced connectivity with impulse control and executive function regions, such as the left postcentral/middle frontal gyrus cluster (β = 0.04, p = 0.02). These findings highlight the role of ELS-induced alterations in SN seed connectivity, influenced by BMI, in the neurobiology of AUD. Understanding the neural mechanisms linking obesity, AUD, and ELS can guide targeted interventions for this population.

Stravinsky and the post-war generation in France: Aspects of influence
Authors: Campbell Edward
Published: July 2023

This article explores aspects of Stravinsky?s influence on some key composers of the Francophone post-war avant-garde, namely Pierre Boulez, Jean Barraqu?, Hen?ri Pousseur and Michel Philippot. While Messiaen, Boulez and Barraqu? build on Stravinsky?s rhythmic innovations, Pousseur focuses on the sonic complexity of the Russian composer?s scores. Boulez and Philippot praise Stravinsky?s unique instrumental groupings and later Boulez finds in certain of Stravinsky?s scores a renewed source of musical form, as well as the structural coherence afforded by Stravinsky?s use of pitch polarity.

Authors: Rochani Renny , Sutopo Wahyudi , Zakaria Roni , Fahma Fakhrina
Published: July 2023

The users of electric motorcycle in Indonesia are currently still limited. This is due to three main things, namely the limited amount of energy charging infrastructure, the lack of socialization regarding the knowledge of technical aspects of electric motorcycle and the financing aspects of electric motorcycle ownership. This research develops a conceptual design business model canvas of Mobile Battery Swap Charging Stations (MBSCS) for electric motorcycles which aim to find solutions to the three problems above. The development of the MBSCS model is an alternative to increase the number of electric charging infrastructure quickly, because the advantages of MBSCS include having a higher level of flexibility and simpler installation than Fixed Charging Stations. This research combines the need of increasing infrastructure and improving socialization to the community regarding the advantages of using electric motorcycle through marketing communication media. Increasing the understanding of technical aspects of electric motorcycle is expected to increase people's motivation to adopt electric motorcycle. This research uses secondary data to explore MBSCS business canvas model (BMC), MBSCS ecosystem, and MBSCS prototype design. The analysis illustrates the MBSCS ecosystem that align with the motorcycle users in Indonesia.  The existence of MBSCS is expected to significantly increase the buying interest, adoption, and diffusion of electric motors more broadly.

Konfrontasi Islam Ideologis Versi Abdul Qahhar Muzakkar dengan Komunis di Desa Tompo Bulu
Authors: Abdulkahar  , Syamzan Syukur  , Hasaruddin
Published: July 2023

Abdul Qahhar Mudzakkar merupakan salah satu tokoh yang kini menjadi simbol perjuangan bagi sebagian masyarakat di Sulawesi Selatan. Perjuangannya dalam menyuarakan hak-hak para gerilyawan memberikan kesan tersendiri bagi masyarakat local yang berjuang saat itu. Tidak hanya itu, Qahhar juga menjadi ikon perjuangan bagi para tokoh agama dalam memperjuangkan syariat Islam.

Konflik di tubuh militer dianggap sebagai dasar pemberontakan Qahhar bersama para pasukannya. Padahal jika kita menelaah dari perspektif lain, perjuangan Qahhar tidaklah dilatarbelakangi oleh motif politik; melainkan motif agama. Hal tersebut dapat kita lihat dari berbagai macam rekonsiliasi yang dilakukan oleh tokoh-tokoh pemerintahan namun tak satupun yang berhasil. Ditambah lagi, surat-surat yang ditulis oleh Qahhar benar-benar menampakkan penolakannya terhadap komunis yang telah mendapat ruang khusus di negeri ini.

Hal serupa dapat kita lihat di desa Tompo Bulu yang menjadi salah satu markas berkumpulnya para gerilyawan. Saat itu, ketika PKI datang untuk mencari dukungan, masyarakat lokal menolak dengan alasan PKI-nya. Artinya, masyarakat di pedalaman telah teredukasi sehingga mereka menolak apapun yang berbau PKI dalam kehidupannya.
Sejarah Islam Kedatangan Islam di Dana Mbojo, Bima (TINJAUAN HISTORIS)
Authors: Hamzah Saidin
Published: July 2023

Penelitian bertujuan untuk merekontruksi sejarah awal masuknya Islam di Dana Mbojo (Bima). Penelitian menggunakan metode sejarah. Untuk mengungkapkan fakta sejarah, penelitian dilaksanakan di Dana Mbojo (Bima) Nusa Tenggara Barat dengan menggunakan beberapa pendekatan: pendekatan historis, antropologi dan sosiologi. Pengumpulan data diperoleh melalui wawancara, observasi dan dokumentasi.Penelitian  juga menggunaka studi kepustakaan (library research) melalui data  primer dan data sekunder. Data primer diperoleh dari BO’ Sangaji Kai, dokumen dan peninggalan lain yang otentik, sedangkan data sekunder diperoleh dari buku-buku, Jurnal, artikel, skripsi dan tesis. Adapun data yang telah diperoleh diolah dan dianalisis secara mendalam.

Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa: Sejarah awal masuknya Islam di Dana Mbojo (Bima) terjadi dalam tiga tahap yakni:1) Terjadinya kontak pertama dengan para pedagang dari Demak. 2) Perantauan dilakukan oleh para pedagang pribumi sehingga sampai ke Ternate dan Tidore. 3) Kedatangan empat utusan dari kerajaan Gowa sampai kepelabuhan Sape dan mengislamkan masyarakat setempat. Peran ulama dan sultan dalam membangun eksistensi Islam di Bima sangatlah besar sehingga meninggalkan bukti dan jejak sejarah seperti Temba Romba bersejarah, Masjid La Kai di Kamina dan langgar kuno di Desa Melayu.

Impliksi dalam penelitian ini, terdapat banyak kekurangan, disebabkan sedikitnya data yang penulis dapatkan.kitab BO’ Sangaji Kai hanya menguraikan secara umum tentang sejarah Bima dan menggunakan bahasa Melayu. Untuk menyingkapi hal demikian  data-data yang didapatkan melalui sumber lisah (oral historis).Temba Romba dan masjid Kamina merupakan bukti peninggalan sejarah kehadiran Islam di Bima.maka sangat diharapkan peran pemerintah dalam menjaga dan mengurus (melestarikan) situ-situ sejarah tersebut demi kepentingan masyarakat umum. Karena daerah yang besar adalah daerah yang mampu menghargai warisan leluhurnya.

Published: July 2023

One-step adsorptive purification of ethylene (C2H4) from a ternary mixture of acetylene (C2H2), C2H4, ethane (C2H6) by a single material is of great importance but challenging in the petrochemical industry. Herein, a chemically robust olefin-linked covalent organic framework (COF), NKCOF-62, is designed and synthesized by melt polymerization method employing tetramethylpyrazine and terephthalaldehyde as cheap monomers. This method avoids most of the disadvantages of classical solvothermal methods, which enables the cost-effective kilogram fabrication of olefin-linked COFs in one pot. Furthermore, NKCOF-62 shows remarkably selective adsorption of C2H2 and C2H6 over C2H4 thanks to its unique pore environments and suitable pore size. Breakthrough experiments demonstrate that polymer-grade C2H4 can be directly obtained from C2H2/C2H4/C2H6 (1/1/1) ternary mixtures through a single separation process. Notably, NKCOF-62 is the first demonstration of the potential to use COFs for C2H2/C2H4/C2H6 separation, which provides a blueprint for the design and construction of robust COFs for industrial gas separations.

Published: July 2023

El contenido de humedad de los culmos de bambú recién cosechados es de alrededor de 100 %, el cual se considera alto, por lo que debe reducirse mediante algún proceso de secado. Un paso clave en el procesamiento de los culmos es el secado, que ha sido poco valorado por los productores y usuarios de bambú. La exposición al aire libre es el método más utilizado en México, pero poco eficiente, ya que tarda desde semanas hasta varios meses en función de las condiciones ambientales. El objetivo del presente estudio fue evaluar el secado de secciones de culmos (6 m de longitud) de Guadua aculeata en un secador solar tipo túnel, con forma de prisma rectangular. El contenido de humedad inicial promedio fue de 106.72 %, en 80 días se alcanzó un contenido de humedad final promedio de 29.84 %. La tasa de secado fue superior a 1.0 % por día durante los primeros 20 días, lapso en el cual redujeron aproximadamente 40 % de su contenido de humedad. En los siguientes 60 días, perdieron en promedio 37.41 % de humedad a una tasa de secado variable para cada culmo muestra. La curva de secado del método evaluado corresponde a una función exponencial. Bajo las condiciones experimentales de secado se determinó que las secciones de culmos de 6 m de longitud y diámetro promedio de 12.42 cm, pueden alcanzar un CH promedio menor a 18 % en un tiempo de 109 días, para posteriormente usarse como elementos estructurales.

Published: July 2023

Background

Past research indicates a higher prevalence, incidence, and severe clinical manifestations of alpha-synucleinopathies in men, leading to a suggestion of neuroprotective properties of female sex hormones (especially estrogen). The potential pathomechanisms of any such effect on alpha-synucleinopathies, however, are far from understood. With that aim, we undertook to systematically review, and to critically assess, contemporary evidence on sex and gender differences in alpha-synucleinopathies using a bench-to-bedside approach.

Methods

In this systematic review, studies investigating sex and gender differences in alpha-synucleinopathies (Rapid Eye Movement (REM) Behavior Disorder (RBD), Parkinson’s Disease (PD), Dementia with Lewy Bodies (DLB), Multiple System Atrophy (MSA)) from 2012 to 2022 were identified using electronic database searches of PubMed, Embase and Ovid.

Results

One hundred sixty-two studies were included; 5 RBD, 6 MSA, 20 DLB and 131 PD studies. Overall, there is conclusive evidence to suggest sex-and gender-specific manifestation in demographics, biomarkers, genetics, clinical features, interventions, and quality of life in alpha-synucleinopathies. Only limited data exists on the effects of distinct sex hormones, with majority of studies concentrating on estrogen and its speculated neuroprotective effects.

Conclusion

Future studies disentangling the underlying sex-specific mechanisms of alpha-synucleinopathies are urgently needed in order to enable novel sex-specific therapeutics.

Published: July 2023

Изучена структура популяции создаваемого типа калмыцкого скота Адучи по полиморфизму генов DGAT1, GHR, IGF-1, PIT-1. В результате исследования животных создаваемого типа по локусу гена DGAT1 большая часть их оказалась носителями генотипа КК (72%), меньшая — генотипа КА (28%). Отмечается также полное отсутствие среди изучаемых особей генотипа АА. При исследовании стада по гену GHR установлено наибольшее количество особей (64%) с генотипом YY. Гомозиготные варианты (ВВ) с аллелем В гена IGF-1 встречались в 1,5 раза чаще, чем гетерозиготные генотипы (АВ). В целом по стаду отмечается высокая встречаемость В-аллеля (0,72) в локусе IGF-1 гена и низкая — А-аллеля (0,28). Частота встречаемости В-аллеля гена PIT-1 оказалась выше, чем у А-аллеля, на 30%. Проведенный опыт позволил оценить генетическую структуру создаваемого мясного типа Адучи на основе взаимодействия наследственности калмыцкого скота и животных абердин ангусской породы американской селекции.

The structure of the population of the created type of Kalmyk cattle Aduchi was studied by the polymorphism of the genes DGAT1, GHR, IGF-1, PIT-1. As a result of the study of animals of the type being created by the DGAT1 gene locus, omost of them turned out to be carriers of the CC genotype (72%), a smaller one of the KA genotype (28%). There is also a complete absence of the AA genotype among the studied individuals. When studying the herd by the GHR gene, the largest number of individuals (64%) with the YY genotype was found. Homozygous variants (BB) with the allele B of the IGF-1 gene were 1.5 times more common than heterozygous genotypes (AB). In general, the herd has a high occurrence of the B-allele (0.72) at the IGF-1 gene locus and a low occurrence of the A-allele (0.28). The frequency of occurrence of the B-allele of the PIT-1 gene was 30% higher than that of the A-allele. The conducted experience allowed us to evaluate the genetic structure of the created meat type of Aduchi based on the interaction of the heredity of Kalmyk cattle and animals of the Aberdeen Angus breed of American breeding.
The Reading Attitudes and Ethical Sensitivity of Nursing Students*
Authors: KIM Yu-Mi , KIM Eun-Young
Published: July 2023

This study examined the impact of reading attitudes on the ethical sensitivity of nursing students. This study used a cross-sectional design and the participants were 214 nursing students who attended in three universities located in one city in South Korea. Data were collected from May to June 2019. A self-report questionnaire probing ethical sensitivity and reading attitudes was used. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson’s correlation coefficients, and multiple regression analysis with the IBM SPSS 26.0 for Window program. The mean score for participant-reported reading attitudes was 3.46±0.49 on a five-point scale. In the subcategories of reading attitudes, the mean score for necessity of reading (4.11±0.49) was the highest, and the mean score for reading habits (2.81±0.72) was lowest. The mean score for ethical sensitivity was 3.56±0.35 on a five-point scale. Multiple regression revealed that ethical sensitivity has a significant correlation with reading habits (r=.247, p<.001), necessity of reading (r=.435, p<.001), persistence of reading (r=.417, p<.001), and pleasure of reading (r=.333, p<.001). The factors affecting nursing students’ ethical sensitivity were the necessity of reading (β=.247, p=.002) and persistence of reading (β=.263, p=.005). These findings indicate that nurturing positive reading attitudes in nursing students will help to increase their ethical sensitivity. These results can also be used to help nurse educators develop appropriate curricula for enhancing the ethical sensitivity of nursing students.

Published: July 2023

This research investigates the effectiveness of extra speaking activities (ESAs) in improving students’ English speaking skills at Le Quy Don High School for the Gifted in Danang, Vietnam (LQDHS). The study seeks to examine the perceptions on, and attitudes toward, the implementation of ESAs amongst a group of math-majored students at LQDHS. In the research, a quantitative approach with a Classroom Action Research design was used. The population consists of 26 Grade 10 math-majored students which consists of 24 male students and 02 female students. Data were collected through observation, speaking tests, and questionnaires. The speaking tests were carried out in three stages: pre-test, treatment, and post-tests with two cycles. Different speaking teaching techniques were adopted, including group discussion, public presentation, debating, and role-play. After each activity, constructive feedback and corrections from the teacher and peers were provided. The results show that the implementation of ESAs significantly improved the students’ speaking in terms of accuracy and fluency. In addition, many students engaged more actively in class activities after joining ESAs. Most students showed positive perceptions and attitudes toward ESAs.
Unrestricted information acquisition
Authors: Denti Tommaso
Published: July 2023

In many strategic environments, information acquisition is a central component of the game that is played. Being uncertain about a payoff‐relevant state, a player in a game has a twofold incentive to acquire information: learning the state and learning what others know. We develop a model of information acquisition in games that accounts for players' incentive to learn what others know. In applications to rational inattention and global games, we prove the power of this incentive. When information acquisition is “independent,” that is, players can acquire information only about the state, severe coordination problems emerge among rationally inattentive players. When information acquisition is “unrestricted,” that is, players can acquire information about the state and each other's information in a flexible way, we show that rational inattention admits a sharp logit characterization and we provide a new rationale for selecting risk dominant equilibria in coordination games.
Départ pour l’Ouest lointain : la découverte de l’Amérique par Gabriele Eckart
Authors: Pailhès Anne-Marie
Published: July 2023

Die Schriftstellerin Gabriele Eckart wurde durch ihr dokumentarisches Buch So sehe ick die Sache (1984) bekannt, das in der DDR verboten und im Westen veröffentlicht wurde. Es bestand aus einer Reihe von Interviews mit ArbeiterInnen einer LPG in Brandenburg. Das brachte der Autorin Kritik von Seiten der Behörden ein, sie wurde von der Stasi schikaniert und musste schließlich 1987 in die USA ins Exil gehen. In der Sammlung Der gute fremde Blick (1992) hält sie ihre Sicht auf ihre Wahlheimat fest. Mehr als dreißig Jahre später veröffentlicht sie neue Texte, in denen sie immer wieder auf die Traumata ihrer Vergangenheit in der DDR zurückkommt. Die Deterritorialisierung führt nicht zu einer ruhigeren Sichtweise, wie die Sammlung Havelobst (2021) zeigt, die Einsichten in das kulturelle Leben in der DDR der 1970er Jahre enthält. So auch der Roman Vogtlandstimmen (2021), der in der Form von inneren Monologen die Geschichte einer ostdeutschen Kleinindustrie-Region von der Kollektivierung zur Reprivatisierung nach 1990 erzählt.
Die Stimme wurde ihm nicht genommen. Erich Loest (1926‑2013)
Authors: Nagelschmidt Ilse
Published: July 2023

Erich Loest gehört zu den Autoren der Kriegsgeneration, die sich nach 1945 für eine andere Gesellschaft einsetzten, von der nie wieder ein Krieg ausgehen sollte. Wegen angeblicher ‚konterrevolutionärer Gruppenbildung‘ wurde er im Zusammenhang mit Diskussionen um die Entstalinisierung zu siebeneinhalb Jahren Zuchthaus verurteilt. Nach der Entlassung gehörte es zu seinen Vorhaben, den ‚kleinen Leuten‘ in der Literatur eine Stimme zu geben. Das gelang ihm mit dem Roman Es geht seinen Gang oder Mühen in unserer Ebene, der zu den prägenden Texten der DDR-Literatur in den 1970er Jahren gehört. Nach massiven Eingriffen der Zensur verließ er 1981 die DDR. Das Land und die politischen Umstände sowie Leipzig haben ihn in die Bundesrepublik begleitet und er setzte sich mit ihnen in vielfältigen essayistischen und poetischen Texten wie Völkerschlachtdenkmal auseinander. Der Aufsatz wird von zwei Gemälden gerahmt, dem Wandgemälde von Werner Tübke „Arbeiterklasse und Intelligenz“ (1973) und dem Gemälde von Reinhard Minkewitz „Aufrecht stehen - für Herbert Belter, Ernst Bloch, Werner Ihmels, Hans Mayer, Wolfgang Natonek, Georg-Siegfried Schmutzler“ (2015). Während Tübke die Konstruktion eines Zusammenschlusses feiert, erinnert Minkewitz im Sinn von Loest an all die, die sich gegen den Konformismus zur Wehr setzten.
Production of Superior Pigs as Breeding Stocks by Improving Maternal Uterus and Placental Environment during Pregnancy
Authors: Rayer Debby Jacqueline Jochebed , Manoppo dan Jacklin Stella Salome
Published: July 2023

An experiment was conducted to study the inheritance of improved growth phenotypes in pigs born to sows injected with pregnant mare serum gonadotropin (PMSG) and human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) prior to mating. Twelve sows were assigned into a randomized design with 3 groups and each group consisted of 4 sows as replications. The first group consisted of sows without PMSG and HCG injection prior to mating as a control group (NSO). The second group consisted of sows injected with PMSG and HCG prior to mating to improve endogenous secretion of pregnant hormones that improve prenatal growth of the piglets (SO). The third group consisted of female pigs born to PMSG and HCG-injected mother in SO group that were mated after maturity without PMSG and HCG injection (F1SO). The number of sows used in each group consisted of 2 sows with 11 litter size and 2 sows with 12 litter size at parturition and total of born pigs observed in this study was 138 pigs. The results of experiment showed that injection of the sows with PMSG and HCG prior to mating improved body weight, body length and leg heights and decreased within-litter variation that finally increased total weight of live born pigs per sow. Sows injected with PMSG and HCG prior to mating produced pigs with higher pre-weaning growth rate and higher survival rate with a higher weaning weight and total weaned pigs per sow. The female pigs born to SO sows produced piglets with similar growth phenotypes as their mothers that was significantly higher and better that the growth phenotypes of the pigs born to NSO sows. The results of this experiment strongly confirm that the improvement of uterine and placental environment by improving endogenous secretion of pregnant hormones during pre-implantation and during the whole pregnancy by injecting the mothers with PMSG and HCG prior to mating improve prenatal and postnatal growth phenotypes of pigsand the improved growth phenotypes are inherited to their offspring. It was concluded that this simple and relatively cheap technique could be used to improve growth genotype expression to produce a superior pigs either as a finisher or as a parent stock.
Effect of nursing guidelines on quality of life, and treatment satisfaction among patients with hypothyroidism
Authors: Deif Hala I. Abo , El-Naby Amel G.A.
Published: July 2023

Background

Many patients with hypothyroidism still experience greater reduction in quality of life (QoL) and treatment satisfaction when on the recommended replacement dosage. Thus, nursing guidelines could improve patients’ knowledge, QoL, and treatment satisfaction among patients with hypothyroidism.

Aim

To evaluate the effect of nursing guidelines on knowledge, QoL, and treatment satisfaction among patients with hypothyroidism.

Design

A quasi-experimental pre–posttest control group design was used.

Setting

The study was conducted at endocrinology outpatient clinics in one of the teaching hospitals at Cairo University.

Sample

A convenient sample of 60 adult male and female patients diagnosed with primary hypothyroidism on a stable dose of levothyroxine was included.

Tools

Four tools were used to collect data pertinent to the study: (a) personal data form. It consists of two parts: (i) demographic data, including age, sex, education level, and place of residence, and (ii) medical data related to comorbid diseases and BMI; (b) Patients’ Hypothyroidism Knowledge Assessment Questionnaire; (c) Thyroid Patient-reported Quality-of-Life Questionnaire (ThyPRO39); and (d) Hypothyroid Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire (ThyTSQ).

Results

There were no statistically significant differences between the study and control groups before application of nursing guidelines regarding demographic and medical variables as well as the total mean scores of patients’ knowledge about hypothyroidism, QoL, and treatment satisfaction. However, highly statistically significant differences were found between both groups at 1 and 2 months after implementation of nursing guidelines concerning patients’ knowledge about hypothyroidism, QoL, and treatment satisfaction (P=0.000 and 0.000, respectively).

Conclusion

Nursing guidelines could improve patients’ knowledge and QoL among patients with hypothyroidism by taking these nursing guidelines fully into account alongside the recommended treatment where nursing guidelines cover all suspected hypothyroid disease and thereby to improve knowledge, QoL, and treatment satisfaction. Recommendations: this study recommends that nurses provide verbal and written nursing guidelines for patients with hypothyroidism in both inpatient and outpatient clinics.

Setting

The study was conducted at the antenatal outpatient clinic of El-Kasr El Aini University Hospital, Cairo University, Egypt.

Tools

Two tools were used: (a) maternal structured interviewing and (b) assessment and follow-up.

Results

Approximately 36% had normal weight, 34.3% were overweight, 26% were obese, and only 3.8% were underweight at recruitment. Appropriate weight gain was observed in 81.0% of underweight pregnant women and 75.5% of normal weight women. However, 61.5% of overweight women and 72% of obese women gained weight above the recommendation range by the Institute of Medicine. The mean total weight gain at the time of delivery among underweight women was 13.5 kg, normal weight women was 12.43 kg, overweight women was 12.05 kg, and obese women was 10.43 kg.

Conclusion

Overweight and obese women had excessive weight gain during pregnancy, whereas underweight and normal weight women gained weight within the Institute of Medicine recommendations.

Recommendation

Counseling during early pregnancy toward adequate gestational weight gain management should be required for pregnant women at the outpatient clinic.
Management of Central Hyperthermia in Traumatic Brain Injury Using Baclofen
Authors: Pillai Ijaz N. , Gomez Gaurav
Published: July 2023

Central hyperthermia in cases of traumatic brain injury (TBI) is often misdiagnosed or underdiagnosed due to inadequate data. The current diagnosis is one of exclusion. Existing treatment as per guidelines is symptomatic and supportive. Continuous fever after TBI may delay therapy, worsen functional outcome and prolong hospital stay. We discuss a case of a 33-year-old gentleman with TBI with recurring fever spikes during inpatient rehabilitation, non-responsive to antipyretics and antibiotics. A diagnosis of central hyperthermia was reached after eliminating other possible causes. Based on a prior case report, baclofen was tried successfully to manage central hyperthermia. In our patient, a complete cessation of fever was noted within 2 days of initiation of baclofen. To test the effect and minimise the possibility of coincidental dissipation of fever, baclofen was temporarily withdrawn. The corresponding decrease in temperatures and days of baclofen administration followed by recurrence with cessation, are depicted graphically. Once baclofen was resumed, he remained afebrile for the remainder of his inpatient period. This case brings to light the possible efficacy of low-dose baclofen in the management of fever of central origin. It also highlights the importance of considering the possibility of fever of central origin in the subacute stage after TBI. Standardisation of baclofen use with well-designed clinical trials is the proposed next step.

The purpose of the study was to analyze the effect of post-covid-19 on the motivation of tourist trips to Anyer Beach Banten. The research variables are post-covid-19 (X) and tourist travel motivation (Y). Sample determination using the slovin method amounted to 101 respondents. Data collection using a questionnaire with a Likert scale (5 scale). Data processing using SPSS Version 21 with data quality testing, namely data validity and reliability tests, correlation coefficients, classical assumption tests, simple regression analysis, hypotheses (T test and F test) and matrix correlation between dimensions. The results showed that post covid-19 had a positive and significant effect on travel motivation, with an R Square value of 0.291, meaning that there was a post covid-19 influence on travel motivation of 29.1% while the remaining 70.9% was influenced by other factors. The results of the matrix correlation between the dimensions of maintaining distance and the personal dimension have the largest value, namely 0.458. This shows that the better the management of services and facilities provided to tourists on Anyer Beach with health protocols and limiting the level of post-Covid-19 crowds will increase the motivation for tourist trips to Anyer Beach, on the contrary, the worse the management of services and facilities provided to tourists on Anyer Beach, the lower the motivation for tourist trips to Anyer beach.

The goal of current research is to study the optimal conditions for the biosurfactant (lipid) and bacteriocin production from local isolate Lactobacillus sp. A total of 120 Lactobacillus sp. isolates were obtained from several sources, recognized according to biochemical tests, and screened utilizing primary and secondary screen processes for bacteriocin and lipid production. According to the observed results, the isolate Lactobacillus sp. ZMJ20 obtained from the clinical sample of healthy Iraqi females revealed to the highest lipids emulsifying activity E24% (60%) and decrease in surface tension to 29.2 mN/m and higher bacteriocin inhibitory impact against pathogenic isolate Candida albicans with a diameter of (22 mm). Therefore, the isolate Lactobacillus sp. ZMJ20 was selected for identification and optimization studies. The isolate was recognized as Lactobacillus plantarum by VITEK 2 system and ensured via molecular identification by PCR technique. Modified MRS medium was used in the fermentation processes for bacteriocin and lipid production by of L. plantarum. The findings of optimum conditions showed that fructose was the best source of carbon and energy instead of dextrose (glucose) and the best nitrogenous sources were meat and yeast extract at ratio (1: 1) with a percentage of (2.5%) instead of peptone, meat, and yeast extract together. The ideal pH was (6.5), the optimum temperature was (37°C) and the best incubation period for bacteriocin and biosurfactant (lipid) production was after 48 and 72 hours respectively. All the production processes are adopted under anaerobic conditions.

El objetivo del artículo es exponer, por un lado, de una forma descriptiva y critica el complejo impacto de la digitalización del Poder Judicial en tiempos de pandemia SARS-COVID-19 sobre los valores judiciales fundamentales de accesibilidad, legitimidad, legalidad y economía de los sistemas judiciales. Y por el otro lado, analizar la llamada justicia electrónica y de que modos las TIC contribuyen en la modernización del Poder Judicial postpandemia. La metodología aplicada fue la revisión bibliográfica y hemerográfica, exhaustiva y actualizada en las diferentes bases de datos como: Scielo, Proquest, Academic One File, Fuente Académica Premier, Redalyc y Google Académico, sobre los informes oficiales en torno al sistema judicial venezolano. Conclusión, se están dando las condiciones para que el impacto del SARS-COVID-19 tenga consecuencias nefastas en el sistema judicial y por ende en el acceso a la administración de justicia, Venezuela no tuvo ni ha tenido el impulso deseado, ni está preparada para afrontar un cambio tan profundo, generado por las nuevas tecnologías. No obstante, la justicia digital o e-justicia se perfila como una nueva forma estructural de la administración de justicia, las TICs no es el futuro, sino que es el presente.

Biomedical waste contains viruses, fungi, toxic chemicals, and radioactive materials. Biomedical waste is dangerous because it is infectious, causing health risks and easily contaminating other wastes if not treated properly. Bioremediation is a method that can be used to treat waste by utilizing indigenous bacteria to remove contaminants. The study aims to determine whether there are isolates of indigenous bacteria that have the potential to be bioremediation agents for liquid biomedical waste in hospitals. The sample comes from a liquid biomedical waste disposal tank at Hasanuddin University Hospital, Makassar. Isolation of bacteria used the pouring method, while identification used the Gram Ziehl Neelson staining method. Pathogenesis was carried out by testing the ability of lactose fermentation and the ability of blood hemolysis. Parameters observed were the morphological and microscopic characteristics of the bacterial isolates, as well as their lactose fermentation ability and hemolytic ability. The results showed that there was one indigenous bacterial isolate from the liquid biomedical waste of Hasanuddin University Hospital Makassar that had the ability to ferment lactose but was unable to hemolyze blood. So that the indigenous bacterial isolate (UH1.2 isolate) was concluded to have a low level of pathogenesis (non-pathogenesis), which is one of the initial characteristics and characteristics of bioremediation agents. Thus, it can be concluded that there is one indigenous bacterial isolate from the liquid biomedical waste of Hasanuddin University Hospital Makassar that has one of the basic characteristics of a bioremediation agent. However, further tests still need to be carried out to ensure that these isolates are those that have the potential to be used as bioremediation agents, namely hydrolytic enzyme activity tests.

La réflexion sur la problématique des résiliences urbaines liées à l’approvisionnement en eau potable, électricité et assainissement dans les quartiers BATUMONA à Kimbanseke et TALANGAY à N’sele est basée sur le fait que la périurbanisation rapide des pays en voie de développement est liée à une consommation excessive de la ressource foncière pour l’habitat BEAUGARD & HALLEUX, (2015) ; ANGEL & ali,(2016).Le concept de résilience urbaine paraît savant et, est  très mal connu par les sujets enquêtés. Cette situation se justifie probablement par le niveau très bas d’instruction des sujets enquêtés dû à l’insuffisance de moyens financiers, au faible revenu (salaires toxiques), dont le dénominateur commun est la précarité de conditions de vie de la population et leurs conséquences néfastes TREFON, (2O11), MABIN, BUTCHER & BLOCH, (2013) ; ANGEL & ali, (2016). Il s’agit là, d’une conséquence de l’urbanisation rapide et de la répulsion du centre-ville, en raison de la forte pression foncière, de coûts élevés de la vie pour les ménages à faible revenu à Kinshasa en général et en particulier dans l’aire d’étude à Kinshasa-Est. Il y a lieu de faire également référence à l’inexistence de politique de planification urbaine WATSON, (2009), BINZANGI & FALANKA, (2014).Globalement, l’aire d’étude fait face à une croissance extraordinaire de son contenant et doit être gérée rationnellement, pour assurer sa durabilité environnementale. Malheureusement, l’état actuel des sites étudiés est confronté à des précarités à outrance des conditions de vie urbaine. Cette précarité a engendré la pauvreté urbaine de masse qui a ouvert la voie aux vulnérabilités des conditions de vie urbaine et celles des habitants. Face à la crise économique persistante, les sujets enquêtés ont développé d’autres stratégies de survies appelées «  résiliences urbaines ». Les sujets enquêtés éprouvent de difficultés énormes de tous ordres qui constituent des conditions majeures de viabilité et vivabilité environnementales urbaines. Ces difficultés constituent des facteurs limitant de possibilités de la plupart des ménages enquêtés dans l’aire d’étude, à prévenir les risques environnementaux et leurs aléas sur les vies humaines. A ce titre, les difficultés précitées soustraient l’aire d’étude des exigences de durabilité environnementale urbaine.
