Statin therapy improves serum Annexin A1 levels in patients with acute coronary syndrome
Authors: Al-Kuraishy Hayder M. , Al-Gareeb Ali I. , Samy Oula Mohamed 
Published: March 2021

Background:
The objective of the study is to estimate the protective role of statins in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) through modulation of annexin A1 (AnxA1) serum levels.

Methods:
A total number of 63 patients with ACS were recruited compared with 25 healthy control subjects. The enrolments were divided into – Group (A): Patients with ACS on atorvastatin (n = 20), Group (B): Patients with ACS on rosuvastatin (n = 20), Group (C): Patients with ACS but not on statin therapy (n = 23), and Group (D): Healthy controls (n = 25). Body mass index and both systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressures were measured. Lipid profile, atherogenic index, cardiac risk ratio, cardiovascular risk index, and human AnxA1 level were estimated.

Results:
AnxA1 serum level was higher in patients with ACS (3.35 ± 0.84) compared with healthy controls (1.71 ± 0.91) and nonstatin using patients (1.47 ± 0.76) (P = 0.005).

Conclusion:
AnxA1 serum level is reduced in patients with ACS compared with healthy controls. Patients with ACS on statins therapy showed a higher level of AnxA1 compared with patients with ACS but not on statin therapy.

Authors: Abdalrahman Ihab B. , Elgenaid Shaima N. , Babiker Ahmed Mohammed Alhadi 
Published: March 2021

Background:
The shortage of specialized intensive care beds is one of the principal factors that limit intensive care unit (ICU) admissions. This study explores the utilization of priority criteria in directing ICU admission and predicting outcomes.

Methods:
This was a prospective cross-sectional study conducted in two ICUs in Sudan from April to December 2018. Patients were assessed for ICU admission and were ranked by priority into Groups 1, 2, 3, and 4 (1 highest priority and 4 lowest priority), and these groups were compared using independent t-test, Chi-square, and ANOVA.

Results:
A total of 180 ICU admitted patients were enrolled, 53% were male. The prioritization categories showed that 86 (47.8%), 50 (27.8%), 13 (7.2%), and 31 (17.2%) were categorized as priority 1, 2, 3, and 4, respectively. Patients in priority groups 3 and 4had significantly higher ICU mortality rates compared to those in groups 1 and 2 (P < 0.001), were likely to be older (P < 0.001), had significantly more comorbidities (P = 0.001), were more likely to be dependent (P < 0.001), and had longer ICU length of stay (P = 0.028).

Conclusion:
Patients classified as priority 3 and 4 were predominantly older and had many comorbidities. They were likely to be dependent, stay longer in ICU, and exhibit mortality.

Is Common Space Politically Potent? A Reflection on Raumlabor’s Aesthetic Gesture.
Authors: Volont Louis 
Published: March 2021

Abstract
In dit essay verkent Louis Volont de politieke slagkracht van de ‘gemeenschappelijke ruimte’ via het werk van het architectuurcollectief Raumlabor, dat opereert vanuit Berlijn. Volont zoomt in op twee projecten van Raumlabor, ‘JuniPark’ en ‘Floating University’, om zicht te krijgen op de ambigue verhouding tussen artistieke praktijken en politieke acties. Hij reikt tot slot illegaliteit en ambiguïteit aan als hefbomen om de activistische artistieke praktijk verder mee te politiseren.

The monitoring system in state departments/institutions is extremely significant and important in any setup/government. The working of the state system becomes coherent and meaningful, and institutions and organizations become proactive under effective monitoring. Also, in the masses, it encourages trust in state and state departments/organizations, and a healthily prosperous society develops. In a society without a proficient monitoring system, institutions become victim of inefficiency, negligence, and lack of interest and lethargy, and thus become meaningless and ineffective. In today’s world monitoring is given its due weight, and the services of various agencies/organizations are hired for the purpose of monitoring. The concept of monitoring (and accountability) is not a new one, however; Islam introduced the idea earlier when the world was ignorant of it at large. It is evident from the records of the holy life of the Prophet Muhammad (SAW) that he himself held monitoring absolutely important. In the state of Madina prophet (SAW) himself monitoried the market Groceries and its rates.market monitoring is very important for the Control of inflation.

Published: March 2021

Islam is the religion of peace. Islamic law describe a complete and comprehensive law of punishment for the eradication of crimes and maintenance of peace. According to Islamic law, the punishments can be classified under three main categories: Al-Hudud (fixed punishments), Al-qisas (Retaliation), and Al-Taazir (discretionary). Hudud means the punishment which has been specified in the Holy Quran and Sunnah and no individual or group has the right to amend or abrogate it. The second is Qisas, which means the equal retaliation of an aggression committed against the body of a person. The third Kind of Islamic legal punishment is Taazir, it means, a crime for which The Holy Quran and Sunnah have not fixed any punishment, instead, have left it to the discretion of the judges.
But in the recent era, many of the Muslim countries don’t leave the punishments of the penal crimes (Taaziraat) to the discretion of the Judges, each Muslim state restrict the rights of the Judge to give punishment at his own’s discretion, and legislating for the punishments of penal crimes (Taaziraat), and make the Judges abide by a particular measure of punishment for penal crimes (Taaziraat).
In this articles, we will analyze the above mentioned issue in the light of Islamic principles, that what, it is lawful for any Muslim state to legislate for the punishment of penal crimes or not?

The Irhaasaat & Mubashirat signs of prophecy are those extraordinary and surprising events that have appeared before the birth of the Holy Prophet (صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم) until the time of prophethood. The main purpose of those signs was to indicate the birth of Holy Prophet(صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم).Those "Irhaasaat" are the predictions of the priests or monks of 'Ahl e kitaab,the events happened in Arab like the incident of As’haab e feel those happened with Prophet Muhammad(صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم),and the dreams of Holy Prophet(صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم).These events are described circumstantially in the books of 'Seerat' and history. Every biographer discusses and explains merits of those events in his own style and reference to the context. For example, out of the three books under study, Al-Rawd Ul-Unf gives a brief description of the text, different narrations, interpretation of difficult words and explanation of ambiguity.Ibn Hisham discusses the previous topic in detail to explain the new event to make it semantically understandable.Imam Zahabi cares most about the authenticity of the "rivayah",briefly discusses the incidents and only gives importance to the events related directly to Holy Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم).Since Allama Suyuti adopted the style of describing miracles and signs of Prophethood in Al-Khasais Ul-Kubra,so we can easily find the Irhaasaat of life of Prophet (صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم) and events before his birth related to the context of our subject

Published: March 2021

Spent Engine oil (SEO) is a common environmental pollutant generated after engine services. Disposing SEO is a serious environmental issue in Nigeria as generators end up disposing it in water drain systems, rivers, open vacant plots and agricultural lands. Thus, the need to assess the impact of such disposal on environmental components becomes imperative. Using a completely randomized design, a control and seven treatments of SEO (T0: 0 ml, T1: 5 ml, T2: 10 ml, T3: 15 ml, T4: 20 ml, T5: 25 ml, T6: 50 ml, T7: 75 ml) were applied to potted soil for cowpea planting. Plant height, leave number, yield, heavy metal load and hazard quotient were assessed. Baseline heavy metal analysis showed the SEO contained lead and cadmium at 0.003 mg/kg and 0.462 mg/kg respectively. There was significant reduction in plant height (T0: 50.72 cm, T3: 37.36 cm, T7: 24.33 cm), number of leaves (T0: 25.91, T3: 21.57, T7: 17.67), seed weight (T0: 24.40 g, T3: 16.38 g, T7: 5.03 g) and plant weight (T0: 171.60 g, T3: 136.60 g, T7: 54.70 g) in contaminated soil with increasing SEO concentration (P<0.05). Cowpea grown on contaminated soil accumulated cadmium in seeds (T0: 0.000 mg/kg, T3: 0.057 mg/kg, T7 0.119 mg/kg) and in roots (T0: 0.000 mg/kg, T3: 0.079 mg/kg, T7: 0.263 mg/kg) with hazard quotient ranging from 0.084 to 0.216. This study revealed that increasing environmental pollution through indiscriminate SEO increases the possibility of health risk by elevating hazard quotient and this should therefore be discouraged.
