TITIK TEMU SUFISME DAN PSIKOLOGI; KAJIAN ATAS QS. AL-FAJR: 27-30
Authors: Muhsin  
Published: December 2021

The problem that this paper would like to answer is whether there are similarities between sufism and psychology in the discussion of soul. So far, sufism is known on the purification of the soul as its material object. To examine the soul, I observe the interpretation of Q.S al-Fajr verses 27-30. The method used is the tahlili method. This means to know how Islam understands the soul then to relate it with the explanation of soul according to psychology. Based on the results of this study, I reveal that there is a meeting point between sufism and psychology. Referring to the poems of Ibn Athailah al-Iskandari, I see similarities between him and secular psychologists such as Aristotle and Plato. I also conclude that considering the soul as their common object material. (Permasalahan yang akan dijawab dalam tulisan ini yaitu apakah terdapat persamaan antara sufisme dan psikologi dalam pembahasan kejiwaan. Selama ini sufisme yang dikenal dengan penyucian diri menjadikan jiwa sebagai obyek materialnya. Untuk mengkaji jiwa, penulis melihat penafsiran Q.S al-Fajr ayat 27 – 30 dengan metode tahlili. Ini dimaksudkan untuk melihat pemahaman Islam terhadap jiwa kemudian mengaitkannya dengan penjabaran dari jiwa menurut ilmu psikologi. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian ini, penulis menemukan bahwa terdapat titik pertemuan antara sufisme dan psikologi. Mengacu kepada Syair-Syair Ibn Athailah al-Iskandari, misalnya, penulis melihat ada persamaan dengan para psikolog umum seperti Aristoteles dan Plato. Dengan demikian, terdapat persamaan antara sufisme dan psikologi karena sama-sama menjelaskan tentang jiwa).

The circumstances of active implementation of a blended learning format at all educational levels require increased motivation and advancement of the competences learned by students of higher education institutions.Such statement equally applies to foreign language competence, which is one of most relevant skills to the future professional activity of international relations specialists. In considering this, the Ukrainian higher education institutions conducted a study on the development of foreign language competence of higher education students in the context of blended learning. The purpose of the article is to develop and empirically establish the effectiveness of the author's model of foreign language competence development of higher education students in the context of blended learning. The study involved the development, implementation and evaluation of the effectiveness of the author's model of foreign language competence development of higher education students in the context of blended learning. The participants of the study were students of higher education institutions: HEI 1, HEI 2, HEI 3, who majored in the following specialties: international activities, international relations and some technical specialities. The participants were 1st, 3rd and 5th year students.A total of 138 students were interviewed (68 from the experimental and 70 from the control group). The study confirmed that the implementation of the method of organizing the formation of foreign language competence of higher education students, which requires an optimal combination of blended learning with modern digital tools and the professional orientation of foreign language training in the system of higher education institutions, helps advance foreign language competence of higher education students.
Aftereffects in the Transient Electromagnetic Method: Inductively Induced Polarization
Authors: Kozhevnikov N.O. , Antonov E.Yu. 
Published: December 2021

Abstract
—Inductively induced electric polarization (IIP) is one of the aftereffects inherent in the geologic materials and affecting results of the transient electromagnetic method. Its effect on the inductive transient response manifests itself as a nonmonotonic EMF decay, including the polarity reversal. The dependence of IIP on many conditions makes it difficult to study the basic regularities in its manifestation. One of the ways to address this problem is to present the simulation results as a normalized transient response. From the most general point of view, the intensity and time range of the IIP manifestation are controlled by the competition between induction and induced polarization phenomena. Induced polarization manifests itself differently, depending on the transmitter used for the excitation of the ground response. Therefore, when studying polarizable ground, the results of the conventional IP method and those of the TEM method do not always correlate.

Abstract
MADS-box gene family is a key regulatory factor family, which controls vegetative growth, reproductive development and can be used to mediate abiotic stresses in many plants. However, Knowledge of this gene family is still limited in Setaria italica. In the present study, a total of 70 SitMADS genes were identified and renamed on the basis of the chromosomal distribution of the SitMADS genes. According to gene structure, conserved motif and phylogenetic feature, the 70 SitMADSs were classified into type-Ⅰ (Mα, Mβ, Mγ) and type-Ⅱ (MIKCC and MIKC*). All of the SitMADS genes were randomly distributed on nine chromosomes, and five tandem duplicated genes and 12 pairs of duplicated gene segments were detected in the SitMADS genes family. Synteny analysis provided a high homology between SitMADS genes and OsMADS genes. A cis-element analysis inferred that SitMADS genes, except for SitMADS23, possessed at least one drought stress response and ABA(Abscisic Acid)-induced response cis-element. Real-time quantitative PCR analysis was used to detect the expression patterns of SitMADS genes in various tissues and demonstrated that the genes responded drought stress and ABA treatments. SitMADS23, SitMADS42, SitMADS51, SitMADS52, SitMADS58 and SitMADS64 were highly expressed in PEG(Polyethylene glycol) and drought stress, which suggested its important role in drought stress response. SitMADS51, SitMADS63 and SitMADS64 seemed to be responsive to ABA hormone signaling, suggesting that they were involved in the ABA signaling pathways. This paper provided a deep insight into the evolutionary characteristics of SitMADS genes. The results provide comprehensive information for further analyses of the molecular functions of the MADS-box gene family in Setaria italica.
On the Shortest Path Problem of Uncertain Random Digraphs
Authors: Li Hao , Zhang Kun 
Published: December 2021

Abstract
In the field of graph theory, the shortest path problem is one of the most significant problems. However, since varieties of indeterminated factors appear in complex networks, determining of the shortest path from one vertex to another in complex networks may be a lot more complicated than the cases in deterministic networks. To illustrate this problem, the model of uncertain random digraph will be proposed via chance theory, in which some arcs exist with degrees in probability measure and others exist with degrees in uncertain measure. The main focus of this paper is to investigate the main properties of the shortest path in uncetain random digraph. Methods and algorithms are designed to calculate the distribution of shortest path more efficiently. Besides, some numerical examples are presented to show the efficiency of these methods and algorithms.

Published: December 2021

Abstract
Background: Terlipressin with albumin, the recommended treatment for hepatorenal syndrome-acute kidney injury (HRS-AKI), is associated with adverse events. Furthermore, the course of AKI in patients with acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) is unknown. We aimed to analyze the safety and efficacy of terlipressin infusion and AKI course in patients with ACLF.Methods: We prospectively enrolled consecutive adult patients with ACLF with HRS-AKI (satisfying either EASL or APASL criteria) treated with terlipressin infusion between 14 October 2019 and 24 July 2020. The objectives were to assess the incidence of adverse events, response to terlipressin, and differential treatment response in EASL and APASL subgroups. Results: Of the 116 patients, 51 satisfied EASL criteria, and 65 satisfied APASL criteria. Twenty-one percent of patients developed adverse effects. Only 1/3rd of patients who developed adverse events were alive at day 90. Sixty-five percent of the patients responded to terlipressin. Nearly 22% developed recurrence of HRS, and 5.2% progressed to HRS-chronic kidney disease. Response to terlipressin was higher in EASL (78.43%) than APASL subgroup (53.84%;P=0.006). Terlipressin non-response predicted mortality in EASL (aHR,6.35[1.15-35.13];P=0.03) and APASL subgroups (aHR,3.07[1.47-6.4];P=0.003).Conclusion: ACLF patients who develop terlipressin adverse events have dismal prognoses. Terlipressin non-response predicts mortality in patients with ACLF and HRS-AKI.

Published: December 2021

Abstract
Introduction: Abortion is highly restricted in Indonesia; self-administered misoprostol can safely induce an abortion. Pharmacies, a common place to purchase misoprostol off-label in other parts of the world, are monitored in Indonesia so that they cannot function outside the law. Misoprostol is for sale online through in-country distributors. Such procurement offers a level of safety and anonymity to the buyer and seller. So as to understand online acquisition of misoprostol, we created a protocol to capture the most visible universe and of sellers, how they engaged with clients, and what women’s experiences were likely to be attempting to buy misoprostol from them. Methods and analysis: We carried out a mystery client methodology to replicate the experiences of women procuring misoprostol online. Our study consisted of five sections: (1) identify the universe of online sellers using the most common search terms, drawn from multiple platforms to capture diversity in interactions as well as products sold (2) remove sellers advertising on more than one site as determined by their telephone numbers (3) draw a roughly probability proportional to size sample (4) contact sellers as mystery clients through text/chat, depending on the platform and engage with them using one profile (marital status, age, and number of children) and (5) purchase drugs offered by the seller. Ethics and dissemination: Ethical considerations include that by purchasing abortion medications from these online sellers, its possible that we made it harder for women seeking to buy drugs from online sellers. Our engagement with these online sellers may have resulted in some of them feeling under scrutiny and possibly pausing their sales. Dissemination plans include depositing a preprint of the paper, sharing the protocol with other study teams who are interested in replicating the methodology in other locations, and sharing our data collection tools on SurveyCTO.
Salicylic Acid-Mediated Diacylglycerol/Triacylglycerol Conversion Affects the Freezing Tolerance of Arabidopsis
Authors: Xu Le , Wu Jun , Zhao Yancui , Liu Huaqiong , Zhang Wenying , Xu Yanhao 
Published: December 2021

Abstract
Diacylglycerol (DAG) is likely converted to triacylglycerol (TAG) by the enzyme diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT), and this conversion is important in freezing tolerance of Arabidopsis. The phytohormone salicylic acid (SA) plays important roles in the chilling and freezing tolerance of plants. In our study, we analysed the chilling phenotype, proline and sugar accumulation, phytohormone measurement, and lipid profiling of dgat1 mutants during chilling or freezing stress. We found that dgat1-1 mutants exhibited higher sensitivity to long exposure to cold stress and showed lower proline and sugar accumulation under cold acclimation conditions. The freezing-sensitive phenotype of dgat1 mutants can be ameliorated by mutations of key salicylic acid (SA) signalling components SAG101, EDS1, and PAD4 through phenotyping analysis of double mutants. Dgat1 mutants accumulated more SA, ABA, JA-Ile (jasmonate isoleucine) and OPDA (12- oxyphytodienoic acid) during freezing stress and after recovery. In addition, the DAG/TAG content in the SA-deficient mutant sid2 was lower than that in the wild type, while the SA-excessive accumulated mutant siz1 showed the opposite trend. In summary, SA could mediate the freezing tolerance of Arabidopsis by regulating the ratio of DAG and TAG, which influences the integrity of the membrane.

Published: December 2021

Abstract
Purpose: COVID-19 pandemic makes outdoors rehabilitation a potential hazard. Patient education to perform simple home-based exercises seems to be an interesting and sometimes a mandatory option. This study provides a comparison between the conventional and home-based virtual rehabilitation after surgical repair of medial meniscus root tears. Methods: All patients who underwent MPRT repair with a modified trans-tibial pull-out technique from March 2019 to March 2021 were evaluated. Those who underwent surgery after December 2019 were trained to perform self-rehabilitation. The rest had undergone outdoors specialized rehabilitation according to a unified protocol and these were used as a historical control group. All patients were followed up for a minimum of 2 year after surgery. Final Lysholm scores were utilized to compare functional outcomes. Results: Forty-three consecutive patients with medial meniscal root tears were studied. Thirty-nine (90.7%) were women and 4 (9.3%) were men. The mean age of participants was 53.2 ±8.1 years. The total Lysholm knee score, and all its items were significantly improved in both groups at a two-year follow-up (p<0.05), except the “Using cane or crutches” item (p=0.065). Nevertheless, the final Lysholm knee score improvement was higher in patients who performed outdoors specialized rehabilitation and in patients with shorter time-to-surgery.Conclusion: Regardless of age and gender, home-based rehabilitation after meniscal root repair with the modified trans-tibial pull-out technique improved the patients’ function at a two-year follow-up. Nonetheless, this effect was still significantly lower than that of the outdoors specialized rehabilitation. Future work is required to clarify basic protocols for home-based tele-rehabilitation programs and determine clinical, radiological and functional results.Level of evidence: Level IV, therapeutic, historically controlled study
Combination of Violet Light Irradiation and Collagenase Treatments in a Rabbit Model of Keratoconus
Authors: Kobashi Hidenaga , Yano Takashi , Tsubota Kazuo 
Published: December 2021

Abstract
Purpose: We evaluated the use of collagenase treatment to generate a rabbit model of keratoconus and the impact of violet light (VL) irradiation on the disease model in six Japanese White rabbits. Methods: After epithelial debridement, the collagenase group was treated with a collagenase type II solution for 30 min; the control group was treated with a solution without collagenase. Three rabbits also underwent VL irradiation (375 nm, irradiance 310 μW/cm2) for 3 hours daily for 7 days after topical collagenase application. Slit-lamp microscopy results, steep keratometry (Ks), corneal astigmatism, central corneal thickness, and axial length were examined before and after the procedure. The corneas were obtained on day 7 for biomechanical evaluation. Results: A significant increase in Ks and corneal astigmatism was observed in the collagenase and VL irradiation groups compared with the control group at day 7. No significant difference was found in the change in corneal thickness between the groups. The elastic modulus at 10% strain, but not at 3% and 5% strain, was significantly lower in the collagenase group than in the control group. There was no significant difference in the elastic modulus at each level of strain between the collagenase and VL irradiation groups. The average axial length at day 7 was significantly longer in the collagenase group than in the control group. Collagenase treatment induced a keratoconic model by steepening the keratometric and astigmatic values. There was no significant difference in the observed elastic behaviour of normal and ectatic corneas under physiologically relevant stress levels. Conclusion: VL irradiation did not cause regression of corneal steepening in collagenase-induced model during short-term observation.
