Authors: Ismail Ismail , T. Yasin Dikson , Ukhti Laiyina
Published: August 2024

Signs for entering prayer times are still hotly discussed in Indonesia, especially the sign for entering the time for the Fajr prayer. This paper tries to describe the signs of prayer times from the point of view of Islamic law and astronomy. With a normative descriptive approach, it is hoped that this paper can find answers to the problem of entering prayer times in Indonesia. Signs of entering pure prayer times are based on the apparent circulation of the sun. There are three kinds of daily phenomena of the sun which are used as a sign of entering the prayer time. The shadow of the sun for the sign of entering the time for the Zuhur and Asar prayers. The sun disk is a sign of entering the time for the Maghrib prayer. The bias of sunlight for the sign of entering the time of Isha and Fajr prayers. The sun sign is changed in the form of the height of the sun which is adjusted to the daily time angle of the sun, so that each entry in the sign can be easily translated in the standard form of time in the respective area.

Published: August 2024

Indonesia is one of the religious countries that regulates the issue of public worship. This paper tries to establish the dynamics of the Ministry of Religion in regulating prayer schedules in Indonesia. With a normative approach, it is expected to find the role, authority and function of the Ministry of Religious Affairs in regulating prayer schedules in Indonesia.  From the explanation of the Law and Regulation of the Minister of Religious Affairs, it can be concluded that there are three main tasks of the Ministry of Religious Affairs in the issue of hisab rukyat, namely preparation, implementation, and evaluation.  From these three main tasks, it can be concluded that the role of the Ministry of Religious Affairs is also normative, namely controllers, facilitators, and legislators. In the view of the sociology of knowledge, the role of the Ministry of Religious Affairs as an institution that gives birth to legitimacy on the issue of prayer time in Indonesia must be seen in the process of legitimacy operatively in the social context. Ideally, the institution of the Ministry of Religious Affairs in giving birth to legitimacy for prayer times becomes new knowledge information or creates new knowledge in the social space of science, but at this time it still seems to strengthen the knowledge of one of the existing knowledge, even tends to only support knowledge that is already strong.

Authors: Ulinnuha Muhammad
Published: August 2024

Marriage Registration Officer (P3N) or in the community of Bener District, Puworejo Regency, familiarly called Kaum, is often used by couples who will carry out marriage. The task of the people is to assist in the administration of marriage registration at the local KUA, but since the issuance of the Instruction of Bimas Islam in 2015 the people through the instruction were dismissed from their status as P3N, interestingly although the status of the people formally has now been deactivated legally so that the existence and function of the people as PPN assistants have been removed, but in fact there are still many who use the services of the people until now, especially in the Bener District area. The purpose of this study is to examine and analyze the urgency and existence of the kaum in the marriage registration perspective of structural functionalism theory. This research is field-based (Field Research) with an empirical sociological approach method, while the data source comes from primary data, namely observation and interviews, while secondary data comes from books, articles and various references relevant to the above topic. The results of this study found that couples who register marriages at the KUA of Bener Subdistrict give trust to the people to take care of all the administration needed by the KUA, besides that the people also often become witnesses from the bride's side, host, and even remarks. In the social analysis of AGIL theory, namely adaptation, goal attainment, integration and latency. The function of adaptation is in the form of the adaptation commitment of the kaum in maintaining the mandate to the community and the government, the function of achieving goals is in the form of helping the community because the kaum play a lot of roles in the marriage process such as recording marriages, being witnesses, being mc and or remarks. The village government and KUA are also helped by the existence of kaum who try to get every married couple to register their marriage with the state. The function of integration is the formation of unwritten rules regarding the cost of kaum services, and the kaum can adjust to the poor community. The latency function is in the form of kaum strengthening synergy and good communication patterns to the Ministry of Religious Affairs/KUA, village government, and the community.
Cash Waqf Linked Sukuk: Sharia Financial Innovation for Productive Waqf Management in Indonesia
Authors: Rahmani Salma , Prasetyo Yoyok
Published: August 2024

Productive waqf management in Indonesia faces challenges in innovation and optimizing the use of funds. Cash Waqf Linked Sukuk (CWLS), an innovative sharia financial instrument that integrates cash waqf with sukuk, appears as a potential solution. CWLS allows people to contribute through cash waqf which is then invested in sukuk, with the investment proceeds used for social projects such as infrastructure, health and education. This research aims to analyze the concepts, mechanisms and contracts implemented in CWLS, as well as evaluate their contribution to productive waqf management and their social impact in Indonesia. Using the literature study method, this research examines various primary and secondary data sources. The research results show that CWLS not only increases the productive use of waqf funds, but also provides a significant social impact through financing social and infrastructure projects. CWLS has proven to be an efficient solution in managing waqf and opens up new opportunities for economic empowerment of the people. However, challenges such as limited public understanding, the need for qualified human resources, and lack of digital access need to be addressed. This research concludes that CWLS has great potential to strengthen the waqf ecosystem and support sharia financial inclusion in Indonesia, with the right support from the government, sharia financial institutions and the community. Increased education and outreach efforts are needed to overcome these barriers and maximize the benefits of CWLS.

Distribution and Inventory Planning in Multi-Echelon Supply Chains Under Demand Uncertainty
Authors: Vicente Joaquim , Relvas Susana , Barbosa-Póvoa Ana
Published: August 2024

Distribution and inventory planning in a multi-echelon system are studied under an uncertain demand context. To deal with this problem a mixed integer linear programming (MILP) model is proposed. This considers a multi-echelon system formed by N-warehouses and M-retailers. The problem consists on determining the optimal reordering plan for the operating network, which minimises the overall system's operation cost. The uncertain demand faced by retailers is addressed by dening the optimal safety stock that guarantees a given service level at each regional warehouse and each retailer. Also, the risk pooling effect is taken into account when determining inventory levels in each entity. A case study based on a real retailer distribution chain is presented and solved.

Moğol istilâsı Orta Çağ’da belki de adından en çok söz ettiren olaylardan biridir. Cengiz Han liderliğinde başlayan bu istilâ hareketiyle birçok yerleşim alanı ya büyük bir tahribat yaşamış ya da tamamen yıkılmıştır. Bu yıkımlardan en büyüğü de Horasan’da yaşanmıştır. Ancak Moğolların Horasan coğrafyasındaki yıkımlarının boyutları tartışma konusudur. Bu konuda kaynaklar birçok iddia öne sürmekte ve Moğol istilâsını farklı gerekçelerle ortaya koymaktadır. Hiç şüphesiz Moğolların Horasan’daki tutumunun bir strateji sonucu ortaya çıktığı unutulmamalıdır. Aksi taktirde bu konudaki iddialar Moğol istilâsının gerekçelerini açıklama noktasında eksik kalacaktır. Hârezmşâh bakiyelerinin tamamen ortadan kaldırılmasına yönelik olan bu stratejide elbette bölgede birtakım yıkımlar meydana gelmiştir. Bu bağlamda Moğolların Horasan coğrafyasındaki yıkımları birçok nedene bağlandığı gibi temelde bir bütün halinde ele alınmamıştır. Dolayısıyla çalışmamızın ortaya çıkış noktası da bu eksiklikten ileri gelmektedir. Bu çalışma, Horasan’da yaşanan Moğol istilâsını bir aklama çabası değil; Moğolların Horasan coğrafyasındaki yıkımlarının gerekçelerini anlama çabası olarak hazırlanmıştır. Çalışmada öncelikle Moğolların Horasan şehirlerindeki yıkımları ayrıntılarıyla ele alınmış, ardından kaynaklarda geçen Moğol istilâsının gerekçelerine dair tespitler bir bütün halinde incelenmiştir.
Quantum Computing and Healthcare
Authors: Ritu Arya  , Ashish Verma
Published: August 2024

The use of quantum computing1 in healthcare represents a significant shift with the potential to revolutionize medical research, diagnostics, and treatment. Quantum computing can process and analyze large datasets much faster than classical computing, offering new opportunities in healthcare. This paper examines the various ways quantum computing can be applied in healthcare, such as in drug discovery, genetic research, personalized medicine, and complex disease modeling. By using quantum algorithms, researchers can identify new treatment targets and simulate the effects of drugs on human biology in ways that were previously impossible, which can reduce the time and cost of bringing new drugs to market. Quantum computing also allows for analyzing large genomic datasets2, which can help tailor treatments to individual genetic profiles. Additionally, this technology helps in modeling complex biological systems and disease processes, providing insights into the mechanisms of diseases at a molecular level and enabling the development of more effective treatments. However, integrating quantum computing into healthcare comes with challenges such as technical limitations, the need for specialized expertise, data security concerns, and ethical considerations. This paper provides a comprehensive overview of the potential applications of quantum computing in healthcare, addresses the associated challenges, and discusses the future directions of this growing field, emphasizing the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration in fully utilizing quantum technologies in medicine. In recent years, quantum computing has rapidly advanced and attracted significant interest from academia and industry due to its unique ability to process information differently, resulting in previously unattainable computational capabilities. Despite its potential, the full impact of quantum computing on healthcare has not been thoroughly explored. This survey paper provides a systematic analysis of quantum computing's various capabilities in improving healthcare systems, focusing on its potential to transform compute-intensive healthcare tasks such as drug discovery, personalized medicine, DNA sequencing4, medical imaging5, and operational optimization. Through a comprehensive review of existing literature, we have developed taxonomies6 covering different aspects, including background and enabling technologies, applications, requirements, architectures, security, open issues, and future research directions, offering a comprehensive view of the quantum computing paradigm for healthcare. Our survey aims to assist new and experienced researchers in quantum computing and healthcare by helping them comprehend the current research landscape, identify potential opportunities and challenges, and make informed decisions when developing new architectures and applications for quantum computing in healthcare

Políticas de currículo para a Educação de Jovens e Adultos trabalhadores: sentidos e interesses em disputa na contemporaneidade
Authors: Ventura Jaqueline Pereira , Barbosa da Silva Adriana
Published: August 2024

O currículo é uma arena política atuante no processo de significação que constitui o conhecimento escolar. Por isso, é fundamental o compromisso ético-político de problematizar as políticas de currículo implementadas para a educação da classe trabalhadora. Este artigo tem como objetivo analisar a legislação federal para a Educação de Jovens e Adultos (EJA), focalizando na Resolução nº 1, de 28 de maio de 2021 (Brasil, 2021), que redefiniu as Diretrizes Operacionais para a Educação de Jovens e Adultos e, entre outros aspectos, alinhou a EJA à Base Nacional Comum Curricular (BNCC). Para isso, foi realizado um estudo bibliográfico e documental sobre as normativas atuais e seus impactos nas políticas de currículo para EJA. O principal referencial teórico-metodológico advém do materialismo histórico, com o pensamento de Marx (2008), Gramsci (2006, 2007), Fernandes (1987) e outros autores. A análise evidenciou que as reformas curriculares em curso colaboram para a reiteração da educação para a subalternidade, ou seja, para a continuidade e a ampliação dos currículos aligeirados, com redução de tempo e de acesso ao conhecimento científico aos jovens e adultos trabalhadores. Reafirma-se a concepção de formação humana integral na perspectiva da emancipação humana, considerando que as políticas de currículo para a EJA precisam problematizar os variados processos de produção social da existência, as expectativas e diferenças dos estudantes, jovens, adultos e idosos da classe trabalhadora, como representantes da diversidade de vozes silenciadas pela desigualdade estrutural da sociedade brasileira.

Published: August 2024

Objective: To assess the Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer by Optical Coherence Tomography in patients treated with pan-retinal photocoagulation at one-month and three-month post-treatment follow-up.
Study Design: Prospective longitudinal study.
Place and Duration of Study: Combined Military Hospital, Quetta Pakistan, from Oct 2022 to Apr 2023.
Methodology: A total of 77 Patients with 104 diseased eyes were included in the study. Forty-eight patients were male, while 29 were female. Out of 77 patients, 63 patients were diagnosed with Proliferative Diabetic Retinopathy, out of which 27 patients had Proliferative Diabetic Retinopathy in both eyes (54 eyes) and 36 had DR in one eye (36 eyes). Six patients were diagnosed cases of central retinal vein occlusion (6 eyes), four patients had Eales disease (8 eyes), and three patients had uveitis (3 eyes). Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer was assessed by Optical coherence tomography in patients before performing pan-retinal photocoagulation and at follow-up visits at one- and three-months post- pan-retinal photocoagulation.
Results: Before pan-retinal photocoagulation, the average thickness of the Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer in the corresponding geographical area was 84.18±2.62 µm. However, there was a decrease, with the thickness being observed to be 83.46±3.75 µm one month after pan-retinal photocoagulation and further dropping to 81.55±2.58 µm three months after pan-retinal photocoagulation. This indicates a regression in the disease progression.
Conclusion: Regular follow-up of our patients indicates significant changes in Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer thickness when assessed at one month and three months post-PRP.PRP is a promising treatment modality in patients suffering from retinal diseases.

Published: August 2024

Objective: To analyze the impact of interdigital versus blow-bottle breathing exercises on spirometry, pulse oximetry and respiratory rate in post-laparotomy patients.
Study Design: Quasi-experimental study.
Place and Duration of Study: Riphah College of Rehabilitation Sciences, Riphah International University and Capital Hospital, Islamabad, Pakistan, from Apr to Aug 2018.
Methodology: This quasi experimental study recruited 27 post laparotomy patients, male and female, aged between 25-45 years. Along with conventional treatment for both groups, Group-A (n=14) received interdigital breathing exercises and Group-B (n=13) was given blow-bottle breathing therapy. Effect on spirometry, pulse oximetry tests and respiratory rate on Day 1, 3 and 6 were recorded.  
Results: On 6th Day post-laparotomy, interdigital group (Group A) showed significantly higher median and mean ranks for oxygen saturation (OS) (p<0.001), rate of peek expiratory flow (p=0.000), forced expiratory volume (1 second) (p=0.018), forced vital capacity (p<0.001) and lower respiratory rate (p<0.001). Blow bottle breathing therapy revealed significantly higher mean for forced vital capacity (p=0.017), but was lower for Oxygen saturation (p<0.001) and respiratory rate (p<0.001).
Conclusion: Our findings lead us to conclude that interdigital technique provides more benefit to post-laparotomy patient compared to blow bottle technique in effective management of pulmonary complications.

Objective: To compare post-operative analgesic requirements in patients undergoing hemorrhoidectomy under caudal epidural anaesthesia versus saddle anaesthesia.
Study Design: Quasi Experimental Study.
Place and Duration of Study: Combined Military Hospital, Rawalpindi Pakistan, Feb to Nov 2021.
Methodology: The study was conducted on 200 patients who underwent hemorrhoidectomy during the study period. Patients were randomized into two groups. Group-A received caudal epidural anaesthesia, while Group-B received saddle anaesthesia. The pain at the surgical site was recorded on a visual analogue scale 04 hours and 08 hours after the surgical procedure. The difference in significant post-operative pain and the requirement of opioid analgesia was compared.
Results: Out of 200 patients randomized into two groups, 96(48%) were categorized into Group-A, and 104(52%) were categorized into Group-B. The mean age of patients who were operated for hemorrhoids in our study was 41.56±6.98 years. Patients who received caudal epidural anaesthesia had more chances of not having significant post-operative pain at 04 and 08 hours after the surgery as compared to those who received saddle anaesthesia (p-value<0.05). The requirement of opioid analgesia at 02 hours was also statistically significantly less in these patients as well (p-value<0.05).
Conclusion: The Use of caudal epidural anaesthesia during the haemorrhoidectomy emerged as better management for early post-operative pain as compared to the use of saddle anaesthesia. The requirement for opioid analgesia was higher in patients after two hours of surgery who received saddle block than those who were administered caudal epidural anaesthesia.

Introduction: Biomarkers play a crucial role in the early identification of diseases and the assessment of treatment response. This study aims to explore the efficacy of different biomarkers in predicting and monitoring chronic diseases, with a focus on cardiovascular and oncological conditions. Methodology: A systematic review of studies published between 2010 and 2023 was conducted, analyzing the validity and applicability of specific biomarkers such as troponin, BNP (B-type natriuretic peptide), and CA-125. Randomized controlled trials, cohort studies, and meta-analyses were included. The quality of the studies was assessed using the Jadad scale and the Newcastle-Ottawa method. Results: The analyzed biomarkers showed high sensitivity and specificity for early diagnosis and monitoring of diseases. Troponin was particularly effective in detecting myocardial infarction, while BNP performed well in assessing heart failure. CA-125 was useful for monitoring ovarian cancer progression but had limitations in early detection. Discussion: The analysis indicates that biomarkers can provide valuable information for managing chronic diseases, improving diagnosis and treatment follow-up. However, the accuracy of biomarkers may be affected by variables such as comorbidities and individual patient characteristics. Further studies are needed to validate and refine the use of these biomarkers in different clinical contexts. Conclusion: Biomarkers are promising tools for the detection and monitoring of chronic diseases, with the potential to transform clinical practice. The implementation of biomarkers should be accompanied by further studies to ensure their efficacy and accuracy in various clinical scenarios.

Introduction: Supracondylar fractures are common in children, and appropriate treatment is crucial to avoid long-term complications. Methodology: The review included selected studies from SciELO, PubMed, and Scopus, covering randomized controlled trials, cohort studies, case series, and reviews, totaling 1,025 patients. Results: Nineteen studies were analyzed, showing significant variations in complication rates and efficacy between fixation methods such as crossed pins, plates, and intramedullary pins. Discussion: The comparison revealed that crossed pins have a lower risk of nerve injury, while plates offer better stability for complex fractures. However, all techniques have potential complications, including the need for early removal and infections. Conclusion: The choice of method should be individualized based on the fracture severity and patient profile, with rigorous follow-up to manage complications. Future research should explore new techniques and technologies to improve clinical outcomes and reduce complications.

Prokrastinasi akademik merupakan permasalahan yang umumnya dialami oleh para pelajar, tidak terkecuali mahasiswa perantau maupun non perantau. Prokrastinasi Akademik adalah kecenderungan untuk menunda atau penghindaran penuh terhadap suatu tugas akademik oleh individu secara sadar. Perilaku ini tidak hanya memengaruhi nilai, tetapi juga kinerja akademik. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui apakah terdapat perbedaan prokrastinasi akademik antara mahasiswa perantau dan mahasiswa non perantau. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah metode kuantitatif dengan jenis komparatif. Responden dalam penelitian ini adalah mahasiswa Universitas Sari Mutiara Indonesia  berjumlah 60 mahasiswa (30 Mahasiswa Perantau dan 30 Mahasiswa Non Perantau). Hasil analisis data menggunakan Mann Whitney U test dengan nilai signifikansi (p)=0,185 (p>0,05) yang berarti tidak terdapat perbedaan prokrastinasi akademik antara mahasiswa perantau dan mahasiswa non perantau. Tidak adanya perbedaan prokrastinasi akademik pada mahasiswa dipengaruhi oleh kurangnya kesadaran diri individu serta dampak buruk prokrastinasi tersebut. Faktor lain tidak adanya perbedaan prokrastinasi akademik pada mahasiswa karena dipengaruhi oleh lingkungan yang dapat memberikan dampak buruk pada diri individu.

Hak-hak atas tanah memiliki peran yang penting bagi kehidupan manusia. Undang-Undang Pokok Agraria (UUPA) merupakan peraturan perundang-undangan yang dibentuk untuk mengakomodir permasalahan hak atas tanah di Indonesia. Perkara perdata dapat terjadi oleh karena adanya perbuatan yang melanggar hak seseorang termasuk di dalamnya akibat dari suatu perbuatan melawan hukum (onrechtmatige daad) yang menimbulkan kerugian bagi orang lain. Terlanggarnya hak seseorang harus diikuti oleh adanya rasa keadilan dan kepastian hukum dalam wujud putusan Hakim. Jenis penelitian ini adalah hukum normatif, dengan pendekatan studi putusan. Penelitian hukum normatif berfokus pada inventarisasi hukum, asas-asas, doktrin hukum, penemuan hukum dalam perkara in concerto, sistematika hukum, perbandingan hukum serta sejarah hukum. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa (1) Perbuatan tergugat tidak dapat dibuktikan sebagai suatu perbuatan melawan hukum disebabkan oleh dua faktor yaitu faktor kurangnya pendokumentasian karena beberapa informasi merupakan kejadian dimasa lalu dengan informasi yang sangat terbatas dan faktor tidak terdapatnya alas hak yang kuat sebagai dasar dari hal yang didalilkan penggugat kepada tergugat termasuk yang berkenaan dengan izin dari orangtua penggugat kepada orangtua tergugat. (2) Pertimbangan hakim Pengadilan Negeri Makassar dan Pengadilan Tinggi Makassar bahwa perbuatan yang dilakukan oleh tergugat bukanlah suatu perbuatan melawan hukum. Pertimbangan ini didasarkan pada fakta persidangan bahwa penggugat tidak dapat membuktikan adanya hak Penggugat yang telah dilanggar oleh Tergugat sehingga yang dimaksud menimbulkan kerugian bagi Penggugat tidak dapat terlihat dalam persidangan dan tindakan Tergugat yang telah dinyatakan bukan merupakan suatu Perbuatan Melawan Hukum (PMH).
