Published: January 2023

ABSTRACT Objective: To understand the experience of parents regarding prenatal diagnosis of orofacial cleft in their children. Methods: Descriptive study with a qualitative approach, carried out in a Brazilian public tertiary hospital between January and March 2019. Parents who were accompanying their children during hospitalization for primary surgeries and who had received the diagnosis of malformation during pregnancy were included in this study. Data was collected through semi-structured interviews, which were audio-recorded and transcribed in full. To prepare the results, Content Analysis was used in the Thematic modality. Results: The sample had 17 participants: 16 mothers and one father. From the speeches, three categories were unveiled: dealing with the unknown, assimilating the diagnosis, and positive and negative implications of prenatal diagnosis. Conclusions: We learned how complex and conflicting it was for parents to receive the diagnosis of malformation in their children, and that family and professional support was essential to the process of assimilation and coping. The findings point to the need for planning and implementing interventions, protocols and/or public policies aimed at assisting these parents in this period.

Authors: Matos Beatriz Tomás de , Pereira João , Aguiar Bárbara
Published: January 2023

Introdução: A doença meningocócica, causada por infeção por Neisseria meningitidis, constitui uma elevada carga de doença e acarreta elevados custos aos países. Os objetivos gerais deste artigo são: analisar a doença meningocócica, as estratégias de prevenção adotadas, e analisar as avaliações económicas na utilização da vacina meningocócica para os serogrupos A, C, W e Y (MenACWY).

Métodos: Foram realizadas uma pesquisa bibliográfica e uma revisão sistemática da literatura, na qual foram utilizadas as bases de dados B-ON, PUBMED, EBSCO, Cochrane, NHS EED, Science Direct, Scopus e Web of Science. Os critérios de inclusão foram construídos com metodologia PICO e incluíam avaliações económicas completas, tendo sido excluídas as parciais.

Resultados: A doença meningocócica apresenta uma elevada incidência no Mundo e em Portugal. A revisão sistemática identificou em sete dos treze artigos, que a MenACWY não era custo-efetiva considerando a incidência no país e o preço da vacina. Nas estratégias que consideraram custo-efetiva, os limiares de custo-efetividade eram muito elevados e em alguns foi considerada custo-efetiva apesar de o ultrapassar.

Conclusão: A incidência desta em Portugal está acima da média da União Europeia devido aos serogrupos B, C, W, e Y. A relação custo-efetividade da MenACWY é ainda dúbia, pelo que incidência e preço são importantes para a introdução no Programa Nacional de Vacinação Português.

Surface and subsurface fire in municipal solid waste landfills (including dumpsites) is a complex and intricate phenomenon, frequency of which is expected to increase due to climate change. Partial or incomplete combustion of landfill waste at low temperatures during fires leads to the generation of toxic compounds, including hydrocarbons, particulate matter and hazardous gases, which contaminate the surrounding geoenvironment and ultimately pose severe health hazards to living entities. Under these circumstances, it is the need of the hour to understand the (a) occurrence mechanisms of landfill fires, (b) waste properties and operational conditions that may favour landfill fires and (c) strengths and limitations of the available detection techniques to provide recommendations for detecting such incidences at an early stage and plan emergency measures. Hence, the present review paper critically assimilates the literature on landfill fires and discusses the (a) conditions under which the initiation and sustenance of landfill fires take place; (b) ecotoxicological (geoenvironmental) hazards of landfill fires, in both the short and the long term; and (c) detection techniques for an early warning system. Finally, a discussion on the coupled multi-physics interactions occurring in the waste matrix during landfill fires is presented, which is crucial to mastering this subject.

Araştırmanın ilk amacı, ilkokul üçüncü sınıfa devam öğrencilerin ön bilgileri, okuma hataları ve kelime tanıma becerilerinin okuduğunu anlama becerisini yordama düzeyini incelenmektir. Araştırmanın ikinci amacı ise öğrencilerin sahip oldukları ön bilgilerin okuma hataları üzerindeki etkisini ortaya koymaktır. Araştırma, tarama modellerinden korelasyonel tarama modelinde gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırmanın çalışma grubunu 75 üçüncü sınıf öğrencisi oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmada ön bilgilerin ölçülmesi için Cümle Doğrulama tekniği (CDT), kelime tanıma becerisinin ölçülmesi için dakikada okunan doğru kelime sayısı, anlama becerisinin ölçülmesi için ise Yanlış Analiz Envanteri’nin soru ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Araştırmanın verileri çoklu regresyon path analizi ile analiz edilmiştir. Path analizi ise AMOS 24 paket programı kullanılarak gerçekleştirilmiştir. Elde edilen bulgulara göre, kelime tanıma ile ön bilgi arasındaki korelasyonun .40 olduğu görülmektedir. Benzer şekilde kelime tanıma ile okuma hatası arasındaki korelasyonun -.54, okuma hatası ile ön bilgi arasındaki korelasyonun ise -.70 olduğu görülmektedir. Öte yandan standardize edilmiş regresyon katsayıları dikkate alındığında kelime tanıma, okuduğunu anlamanın anlamlı bir yordayıcısı değildir (β=.09, p>.05). Ancak okuma hatası (β=-.46, p<.001) ve ön bilgi (β=.40, p<.001) okuduğunu anlama becerisinin anlamlı birer yordayıcısıdır. Araştırmada elde edilen bir başka önemli bulgu ise okuduğunu anlama becerisinde meydana gelen değişimin %72’lik kısmı konuyla ilgili ön bilgiler, okuma hataları ve kelime tanıma becerisi tarafından açıklanmaktadır. Ayrıca öğrencilerin sahip olduğu ön bilgiler sözlü okuma hatalarındaki değişimin %49’unu açıklamaktadır ve ön bilgi okuma hatalarının anlamlı bir yordayıcısıdır.
Financial Repercussions of SNAP Work Requirements
Authors: Dodini Samuel , Larrimore Jeff , Tranfaglia Anna
Published: January 2023

This paper considers the credit response of individuals after the implementation of new work requirements for Supplemental Nutrition Assistance (SNAP) benefits using a large nationally representative sample of credit records. It does so by exploiting county-level variation in the implementation of work requirements after the Great Recession in a difference-in-differences design. We find that the implementation of new SNAP work requirements leads more people to seek out new credit and leads to an increase in credit account openings. New work requirements also result in an increase in total outstanding balances on bank and retail card accounts and increase the number of borrowers that are past due on these accounts. These findings suggest that some individuals are turning to credit and debt products to cover expenses after losing eligibility for SNAP benefits.

This study was conceived to work on Artemisia herba alba essential oils (EOs) originating from Eastern Morocco. We investigated the chemical properties and determined the antiradical scavenging activity. The GC-MS technique was used to elucidate the chemical composition of the two studied regions. Jerada Eo was distinguished by the existence of 1,6-Dimethylhepta-1,3,5-triene (36.44%), Camphor (22.50%), and Thujone (7.21%). While, Taourirt EO was found to be rich in Camphor (55.31%), Eucalyptol (14.64%), and Camphene (9.95%). Moreover, the free radical scavenging ability (DPPH•), and ferric reducing power assay (FRAP) were conducted. The EOs tested are found to be weakly active and to have important antioxidant potential. The docking study was also carried out by theoretical investigation with molecular docking of four active predominating components (1,6-dimethylhepta-1,3,5-triene; Chrysanthone; Eucalyptol; Alpha-pinene) against S protein of SARS-CoV‑2, and all the four ligands were found to bind to the S protein 6CS2 of SARS-CoV-2 differently and that the stable complex formed as a result of these interactions may prevent the binding of ACE2 with the spike S protein of SARS-CoV-2.

Authors: Nandiyanto Asep Bayu Dani , Ragadhita Risti , Fiandini Meli
Published: January 2023

Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) is one of the tools to represent molecular structure based on atomic vibration. It can denote a specific property of the chemical bond and molecular structure in the material, especially when analyzing specimens relating to plastics, polymers, and organic components. The FTIR peaks and spectrum act as a fingerprint of a specific molecular structure and chemical bonding, which need a sufficient reference database to distinguish them. This paper is to address issues of the need for a reference database of FTIR. This paper exhibits step-by-step information on how to read and interpret the FTIR spectra and identify a molecule's backbone with its functional groups. Practical examples from the analysis of several plastics/polymers and the thermally decomposing plastics/polymers were included to help and guide the reader to comprehend the basic concept of FTIR spectra.

Published: January 2023

The variety and difference between domains for textual data require customization in the Natural Language Processing component especially in Named Entity Recognition where different domains contain several types of entities. The current NER model is deemed not fit to accurately extract entities from Quranic text due to its unique content. This paper describes the building of a rule-based Named Entity Recognition method to extract the entities that exist in the English translation to the meaning of the Quranic text and its performance evaluation. Named entity tagging, a common task in-text annotation, in which entities (nouns) in the unstructured text are identified and assigned a class. A few rules are built to extract several types of entities such as the name of prophets and people, creation, location, time, and the various names of God. The rules are built mainly using regular expressions and gazetteers. The rules that have been built result in high precision and recall as well as a satisfactory F-score of over 90%. The results from this experiment can be used as annotation in building a machine learning model to extract entities from the same type of domain specifically on the Quranic text or generally in the Islamic domain text.

Published: January 2023

This study focuses on evaluating the usability of a newly developed model for depression screening. The model was designed to address the issue of adolescent motivation during the gamification-based depression screening. Depression causes adolescent to experience emotional changes including hopelessness, lack of self-confidence and a sense of worthlessness which ultimately makes them unmotivated to undergo a face-to-face depression screening in medical institution. In this regard, the model applied gamification elements comprises game mechanics and components, extrinsic and intrinsic motivational elements, and types of user. A prototype was developed to validate the generated model. Subsequently, the prototype was evaluated using the cognitive walkthrough method which examines its usability. Five respondents with expertise in the field of adolescent counselling and human-computer interaction were involved in the evaluation. The analysis found that the model has a high level of usability, as all respondents have given positive feedback on the sets of task provided. These findings validated the model in diagnosing depression through the inspection testing. It can be concluded that the model could be adopted as a guideline in developing an actual depression screening system. The model has also undergone some improvements, specifically by providing clearer details on every gamification design element involved.

Privacy Based Classification Model of Public Data By Utilizing Two-Steps Validation Approach
Authors: Hussin Masnida , Raja Mahmood Raja Azlina
Published: January 2023

Digital information has become a trend and is integral to modernizing and leveraging various resources in Information Technology (IT). Vast data and information can be obtained anytime and anywhere at our fingertips through ICT facilities. This is considered public data due to its being shared publicly, such as on social media. Public data can be arranged according to various criteria and formats. Users have a right to understand which data can be publicly shared and which data is supposed to be in a private state. However, people always misunderstand and mislead which data needs to be secured and which can be shared. It is further critical when this public data is already exposed to data breaches and data theft. In this work, we propose a data privacy classification approach for public data where this data resides on digital platforms. It aims to inform the public about the level of data privacy before they reveal it on open and free digital platforms. We employed three different privacy classes: low, medium, and high. In response to that, we identified entities of public data that refer to digital information platforms such as websites, mobile apps, and online systems. We then dug further into the data attributes of each entity. The public data attributes are sorted and passed to respondents to obtain their input regarding their decisions on which privacy class is suitable for the respective attribute. Based on the input from respondents, we then used a Naive Bayesian classifier to generate probability weightage for re-assigning the data attributes into the most suitable privacy class. This two-level data classification stage brings better perspectives on data privacy. This modified version of the public data privacy class is then verified by the respondents to analyze their preferences while measuring users’ satisfaction. According to the results, our public data privacy classification model meets public expectations. Optimistically, well-organized data classification contributes to better data practices.
Urban Heat Transition in Berlin: Corporate Strategies, Political Conflicts, and Just Solutions
Authors: Sander Hendrik , Weißermel Sören
Published: January 2023

In the field of urban climate policy, heat production and demand are key sectors for achieving a sustainable city. Heat production has to shift from fossil to renewable energies, and the heat demand of most buildings has to be reduced significantly via building retrofits. However, analyses of heat transition still lack its contextualization within entangled urban politico-economic processes and materialities and require critical socio-theoretical examination. Asking about the embeddedness of heat transition within social relations and its implications for social justice issues, this article discusses the challenges and opportunities of heat transition, taking Berlin as an example. It uses an urban political ecology perspective to analyze the materialities of Berlin’s heating-housing nexus, its politico-economic context, implications for relations of inequality and power, and its contested strategies. The empirical analysis identifies major disputes about the future trajectory of heat production and about the distribution of retrofit costs. Using our conceptual approach, we discuss these empirical findings against the idea of a more just heat transition. For this purpose, we discuss three policy proposals regarding cost distribution, urban heat planning, and remunicipalization of heat utilities. We argue that this conceptual approach provides huge benefits for debates around heat transition and, more generally, energy justice and just transitions.

The Civil Law Influence on the Tax Law Terminology and Legal Institutions
Authors: Smolitskaya Elena E.
Published: January 2023

The purpose of this study is to analyze civil laws influence on tax law terminology and legal institutions.

The article proves that the civil and tax law interconnection is based on unified property algorithms, which serve as the basis of most legal institutions of these branches of law. This permits civil law, as a relatively old and advanced branch of law, to have a great impact on tax law.

In addition, this article investigates the continuation of civil and tax legal regulation that is causing civil events and legal facts to be considered in tax rules.

The analysis of civil and tax legal terminology reveals a legal reception of the civil terms by the tax law, and some terms have changed their meanings. The author exposes problems caused by multiple meanings of legal terms and justifies the need for legal terms to be unambiguousness. It is been proven that the terminological field conception does not apply to solving the problems of civil law and tax law interconnection.

In the concluding part of this article, an authorial methodology for solving the terminological problems is offered. This methodology involves the forms of civil laws influence on tax law.

Published: January 2023

Omega-3 dengan kandungan asam docosahexaenoic (DHA) dan asam eicosapentaenoic (EPA) yang tinggi telah dilaporkan pada by-product dalam berbagai riset dunia selama 10 tahun terakhir. Disisi lain, bahan baku minyak ikan omega-3 di Indonesia umumnya didominasi oleh minyak impor. Uniknya, sumber omega-3 bisa didapatkan dari by-product industri pengolahan perikanan seperti pada mata ikan tuna. Pemanfaatan dari by-product industri pengolahan tuna ini dapat menjadi sumber bahan baku terbarukan juga sebagai upaya penanganan dan pemanfaatan dari by-product perikanan. Namun, kualitas minyak ikan yang dihasilkan dari by-product perikanan umumnya belum memenuhi baku mutu yakni masih tingginya bilangan peroksida. Bilangan peroksida menunjukkan terjadinya oksidasi primer pada minyak ikan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi efektivitas berbagai adsorben dengan rujukan riset terdahulu dalam upaya penurunan bilangan peroksida pada minyak mata ikan tuna. Metode penelitian ini menggunakan tiga jenis adsorben yakni magnesol, bentonite, dan zeolite. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa perlakuan netralisasi 16°Be dilanjutkan dengan bleaching menggunakan magnesol mampu menurunkan nilai peroksida 56,62±7,07 meq/kg menjadi 11,28±0,73 meq/kg, bentonite menjadi 35,21±2,81 meq/kg, dan zeolite menjadi 35,65±1,89 meq/kg. Pemurnian minyak mata tuna menggunakan magnesol merupakan perlakuan terbaik dalam menurunkan bilangan peroksida jika dibandingkan dengan adsorben bentonit dan zeolite. Efektivitas penurunan mencapai 80% dalam menurunkan nilai peroksida pada minyak mata ikan tuna.

Improving Out of Network Earthquake Locations Using Prior Seismicity for Use in Earthquake Early Warning
Authors: Williamson Amy , Lux Angela , Allen Richard
Published: January 2023

Timely alerts sent through earthquake early warning (EEW) programs allow those alerted to take protective actions to mitigate their risk from potentially damaging shaking. Over the past few years, ShakeAlert, the EEW program focused on the west coast of the contiguous United States, has grown, alerting communities within California, Oregon, and Washington about earthquakes where damaging shaking is expected. ShakeAlert uses a set of algorithms including the point-source algorithm, earthquake point-source integrated code (EPIC), to determine the location, magnitude, and origin time of potential earthquakes. Although EPIC produces low-latency and low error solutions for many events originating within the seismic network on land, numerous recent small earthquakes rupturing offshore of northern California have EPIC location solutions with high error (>50 km compared to USGS locations). Because most events are occurring offshore, there is a limited number of stations that can trigger and contribute information in a timely manner for use in EEW. To better constrain location solutions in this region, we propose to include information about contemporary past seismicity into EPIC’s grid-search algorithm through a Bayesian framework. This prior information layer downweights high error locations where EPIC’s proposed event location coincides with an area of low prior seismicity in preference for locations with a similar level of data fit that also have higher past seismicity. This addition to EPIC lowers the mean location error offshore northern California from 58 to 14 km.
COMPARATIVE FLUX BALANCE ANALYSES OF SERINE ALKALINE PROTEASE OVERPRODUCTION IN Bacillus subtilis AT GENOME AND SMALL SCALE
Authors: KOCABAŞ Pınar
Published: January 2023

This work aims to conduct flux balance analysis of serine alkaline protease overproduction in Bacillus subtilis using enzyme-constrained genome scale model and to compare the results with fluxes obtained from a smaller, bioreaction-based model. Fluxes of the enzyme constraint genome scale model were calculated using CobraToolbox v3.0 and compared with those of bioreaction-based model for the specific growth rate of zero. The active reaction number first increased and then remained constant with specific growth rate for enzyme constrained genome scale model. The SAP synthesis flux increased with a decrease in specific growth rate for both models. The TCA cycle was active for both models, but with lower fluxes for enzyme-constrained genome scale model. Anaplerotic reactions were active only for bioreaction-based model. Glycolysis pathway fluxes were active for enzyme-constrained genome scale model, meanwhile gluconeogenesis pathway fluxes were active for bioreaction-based model. Oxidative pentose phosphate pathway was inactive for both models and generally higher pentose phosphate pathway fluxes were obtained using bioreaction-based model. The fluxes toward amino acid synthesis pathways and serine alkaline protease synthesis were higher with bioreaction-based model. Since TCA cycle fluxes were lower with enzyme constrained genome scale model, ATP synthesis was lower with enzyme constrained genome scale model compared to bioreaction-based model. For both models, active pathways were the same for TCA cycle, pentose phosphate pathway, amino acid synthesis pathways except glycolysis pathway. The results showed that bioreaction-based model gave more sound results compared to enzyme constrained genome scale model since gluconeogenesis should be active with the carbon source of citrate.

On physical examination obtained, lower abdominal pain and tender suprapubic mass were palpable. The pubertal status was normally secondary sexual characteristics. An interlabial mass was found protruding from the introitus vagina and the hymen intact on inspection of the external genitalia. Laboratory and urinalyses revealed normal. Hematometra and hematocolpos were found on abdominal ultrasonography, which led to the diagnosis of imperforate hymen. Therefore, a hymenectomy was performed and evacuated 520 ml of dark red blood. The patient’s condition was good, and she had regular menstruation.
ConclusionsImperforate hymen is an easy diagnosis, but sometimes clinicians are oblivious to including this in the differential diagnosis of lower abdominal pain in pubescent girls with primary amenorrhea. Also, a lack of awareness about the importance of external genitalia examination as part of routine physical examination in children and adolescents makes this diagnosis easily missed or delayed.

Giant cell fibroma is a unique non neoplastic benign lesion of oral mucosa. It is a localised reactive proliferation of fibrous connective tissue. Surprisingly, this fibroma has no specific association with chronic irritation. It occurs most commonly in the first three decades of life and according to Houston it has a female predilection. It clinically presents as an asymptomatic pedunculate or sessile lump and this diverse unique lesion is confirmed on histopathological examination as clinical examination alone is not sufficient to confirm this fibroma. In this paper we present a rare case of Giant cell fibroma in a 30 year old male.

Acquisire e insegnare l’italiano in un contesto minoritario

Learning and teaching Italian in a minority context: the example of the Ladin valleys
This paper aims at reflecting on the acquisition and teaching of Italian as a second language in the minority context of the Ladin valleys in South Tyrol. Since this area is characterized by a historical multilingualism and consequently by an important presence of Italian and German, Ladin children grow up in a multilingual setting, where Italian can be L1 or is learned through the social and institutional context as L2. Moving from the project AcuiLad, which examines first and multilingual acquisition processes at kindergarten age in the Ladin valleys in South Tyrol, four case studies of Italian conversations by Ladin children aged 3 to 6 will be presented. This analysis shows that the main morphological characteristics of Italian are acquired before entering school. The interference of the L1, Ladin in this case, can be mostly observed on the lexical level and in minor way on the morphological one. In terms of language teaching, this could mean in Ladin schools more situations of integrated linguistic education could be foreseen, especially for grammatical contents, since the grammatical competences are more or less the same for Italian, German and Ladin.

The Renaissance as a Process: the Transformation in Orthodox Church Painting in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth
Authors: Gronek Agnieszka
Published: January 2023

The Ruthenian Orthodox art in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth in the sixteenth century opened itself to the influences of Western European culture. The article is devoted to а description and analysis of this phenomenon. Although for most of the seventeenth century no work emerged that was pure enough in terms of its style that it could be termed а fully Renaissance work, this fact does not mean that there wasn’t any Renaissance at all. Here the Renaissance was not а style, an epoch, or а period, but а process that unfolded over two centuries, without а strictly defined beginning and end.

Published: January 2023

Objetivo: avaliar o ganho de peso e fatores associados em estudantes universitários durante a primeira onda de COVID -19. Método: trata-se de um estudo transversal realizado no primeiro semestre de 2020, por meio de um questionário semiestruturado online com estudantes de graduação de uma universidade do Sudeste brasileiro, analisando-se por estatística descritiva e inferencial. Resultados: foram avaliados 876 estudantes (idade: mediana 22±5 anos). Apresentar aumento no apetite ampliou em cerca de 2,5 vezes as chances de ganho de peso, enquanto mudanças na alimentação e preocupar-se com o ganho de peso dobrou essas chances. A obesidade aumentou as chances de ganho de peso em 276%. Em contrapartida, maior pontuação na subescala “Comer por razões físicas e não emocionais” do comer intuitivo associou-se com chances menores dos estudantes apresentarem esse ganho. Conclusão: esses dados apontam a necessidade de estratégias baseadas em uma alimentação intuitiva para minimizar os impactos da pandemia no comportamento alimentar de estudantes universitários.
KONSTRUKSI FIKIH ZAKAT DALAM KARYA ULAMA BANJAR DAN RELEVANSINYA DENGAN MANAJEMEN ZAKAT MODERN
Authors: Hakim Budi Rahmat
Published: January 2023

This article seeks to identify and describe the construction of zakat thought contained in a number of local works by Banjarese Ulama and to find the relevance of zakat thought as proposed by modern zakat management concepts. The study of the Banjar Ulama's conception of zakat thought was carried out through reading library materials in the form of a number of fiqh works written by Banjar Ulama in the 18-19M century which were also the targets or objects of study. The search results and analysis of the intended local fiqh literature found a number of constructs for discussion of zakat fiqh that discuss the legal provisions of zakat obligations, criteria for zakat objects, zakat distribution mechanisms, the concept of productive zakat, and amil criteria, as well as zakat management authority. From a number of fiqh formulations found, some provisions are still limited conventionally and conservatively, especially regarding the subject of zakat and the criteria for assets which are the object of zakat. While some contain jurisprudence ideas that are relevant to the context of modern management in zakat management, namely related to the productive use of zakat, zakat agency institution with their various duties and functions, and the active role of the government in providing regulatory support and facilitation of operational facilities and infrastructure for zakat management. Some of these fiqh ideas can even be considered as a progressive thought that transcends fiqh thinking in the context of their time.Tulisan ini berupaya mengidentifikasi dan mendeskripsikan konstruksi pemikiran zakat yang terdapat dalam sejumlah karya lokal Ulama Banjar serta menemukan relevansi pemikiran zakat yang dikemukakan dengan konsep manajemen zakat modern. Kajian tentang konsepsi pemikiran zakat Ulama Banjar ini dilakukan melalui penulusuran bahan pustaka berupa sejumlah karya fikih yang ditulis Ulama Banjar dalam rentang abad 18-19M yang sekaligus menjadi sasaran atau objek kajian. Hasil penelusuran dan telaah dari literatur fikih lokal dimaksud menemukan sejumlah konstruk bahasan fikih zakat yang mengulas seputar ketentuan hukum kewajiban zakat, kriteria objek zakat, mekanisme distribusi zakat, konsep zakat produktif, dan kriteria amil, serta otoritas pengelolaan zakat. Dari sejumlah rumusan fikih yang ditemukan tersebut sebagian ketentuannya masih terbatas secara konvensional dan konservatif terutama menyangkut subjek zakat dan kriteria harta yang termasuk objek zakat. Sementara sebagian lagi mengandung gagasan fikih yang relevan dengan konteks manajemen modern dalam pengelolaan zakat, yakni terkait pendayagunaan zakat secara produktif, lembaga keamilan dengan berbagai tugas dan fungsinya, serta peran aktif pemerintah dalam memberikan dukungan regulasi maupun fasilitasi sarana dan prasarana operasional pengelolaan zakat. Beberapa gagasan fikih tersebut bahkan juga dapat dinilai sebagai sebuah pemikiran progresif yang melampaui pemikiran fikih pada konteks zamannya.

Published: January 2023

Objectives: The rates of vaccination with human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine, which can prevent many cancers, rank the last place when compared to other childhood vaccination rates. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the knowledge levels of mothers living in our region about HPV vaccine and their perspectives regarding having the vaccine.
Methods: The study was conducted between 15 July and 15 August 2022 in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Faculty of Medicine, Kafkas University with the mothers of 377 girls. The SPSS 21 program was used and p < 0.05 was accepted as significant.
Results: No statistically significant differences were detected between the desire of the mother to have her child vaccinated against HPV and the age of her child (p = 0.740), income level of the household (p = 0.590) and the working status of the mother (p = 0.419). There were statistically significant differences between the desire of the mother to have her daughter vaccinated with HPV, the place where the mother lived (p = 0.001), age of the mother (p = 0.037), family type (p = 0.001), number of people living at home (p = 0.027), education year of the mother (p = 0.004), father’s approval for vaccination (p = 0.001), and mother’s hearing about the Smear Test (p = 0.001).
Conclusions: Even if the HPV vaccine is given free of charge, there is resistance in mothers to the vaccine. It is necessary to inform mothers about HPV vaccination for their daughters and to make the vaccination more widespread.
