Novel Muhammad: Lelaki Penggenggam Hujan karya Tasaro G.K. menceritakan dua kisah, yakni kisah Nabi Muhammad saw. dan kisah seorang lelaki Persia bernama Kashva. Dikisahkah bahwa Kashva pergi mencari lelaki yang kelahirannya telah dijanjikan oleh banyak kitab suci sebagai nabi baru yang akan membawa rahmat manusia dan semesta alam. Di tengah-tengah kisah pencarian itulah terselip kisah Nabi Muhammad Saw. Dari kisah-kisah tersebutlah tersimpan pesan profetik berupa nilai humanisasi (amar ma’ruf), nilai liberasi (nahi munkar), dan transendensi (tu’minu billah). Penelitian ini membahas ketiga nilai profetik tersebut dengan tinjauan struktural semiotik. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui nilai profetik dalam novel Muhammad: Lelaki Penggenggam Hujan karya Tasaro G.K. ditinjau dari struktur novel dan semiotik. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan metode analisis isi model Philipp Mayring kategori deduktif. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan adanya nilai profetik yakni nilai humanisasi, nilai liberasi, dan nilai transendensi yang begitu melekat sesuai dengan realitas Al Quran sebagai sumber utama ilmu pengetahuan. Selain itu, banyak sekali pengetahuan adab dan karakter yang tercermin dari ketiga nilai profetik yang baik diterapkan di sekolah sebagai suatu bentuk ekspresi dari upaya penanaman karakter pada siswa. The novel of Muhammad: Lelaki Penggenggam Hujan by Tasaro G.K. tells two stories, the story of the Prophet Muhammad and the story of a Persian man named Kashva. It is said that Kashva went to find a man whose birth was promised by many scriptures as a new prophet who would bring grace to mankind and all the universe. In the middle of the search story, the story of the Prophet Muhammad was tucked. From these stories, prophetic messages are stored in the form of the value of humanization (amar ma'ruf), the value of liberation (nahi munkar), and transcendence (tu'minu billah). This study discusses the three prophetic values with a semiotic structural review. This study aims to determine the prophetic value in the novel Muhammad: Lelaki Penggenggam Hujan by Tasaro G.K. in terms of the novel and semiotic structure. This study used a qualitative approach with the content analysis method of the deductive Philipp Mayring model. The results of this study indicate that there are three prophetic values namely, the value of humanization, the value of liberation, and the value of transcendence which is so inherent in accordance with the reality of the Al-Quran as the main source of knowledge. In addition, there is a lot of knowledge of manners and character which is reflected in the three good prophetic values applied in schools as a form of expression of efforts to cultivate character in students.

Abstract
Cold, low-mass, field brown dwarfs are important for constraining the terminus of the stellar mass function, and also for optimizing atmospheric studies of exoplanets. In 2020 new model grids for such objects were made available: Sonora-Bobcat and ATMO 2020. Also, new candidate cold brown dwarfs were announced, and new spectroscopic observations at λ ≈ 4.8 μm were published. In this paper we present new infrared photometry for some of the coldest brown dwarfs, and put the new data and models together to explore the properties of these objects. We reconfirm the importance of mixing in these atmospheres, which leads to CO and NH3 abundances that differ by orders of magnitude from chemical equilibrium values. We also demonstrate that the new models retain the known factor ≳3 discrepancy with observations at 2 ≲ λ
μm ≲ 4, for brown dwarfs cooler than 600 K. We show that the entire 1 ≲ λ
μm ≲ 20 energy distribution of six brown dwarfs with 260 ≤ T
eff K ≤ 475 can be well reproduced, for the first time, by model atmospheres which include disequilibrium chemistry as well as a photospheric temperature gradient which deviates from the standard radiative/convective equilibrium value. This change to the pressure–temperature profile is not unexpected for rotating and turbulent atmospheres that are subject to diabatic processes. A limited grid of modified-adiabat model colors is generated, and used to estimate temperatures and metallicities for the currently known Y dwarfs. A compilation of the photometric data used here is given in Appendix C.

Authors: Ansaf Ahmed , Faraj Safaa A. , Kazem Safaa 
Published: August 2021

Thalassemia Major still a growing disease in Iraq with no clear plan for prevention.
Failure to get a secondary sexual character, amenorrhea, and then the inability to get pregnant is one the increasingly common problems in female patients with huge burden effects. Despite recent advances in iron chelation therapy, still, excess iron deposition in pituitary gonadotropic and gonadal cells remains one of the major causes for gonadal failure.
Objectives: To evaluate the effect of iron overloads measured by serum ferritin on pituitary gonadotrophins measured by FSH, LH, and the gonadal sex steroid measured by estrogen in pubertal females with thalassemia Major.
Methods: 41 female patients randomly selected in a cross-sectional study with diagnosed Thalassemia Major registered in Al-Kut Hereditary Blood Disease Center in the south of Iraq.
Demographic data were evaluated including (age, type of chelation therapy, compliance for treatment and mean hemoglobin levels, and presence of amenorrhea). Serum ferritin, hemoglobin, FSH, LH, Estrogen levels were collected from patient's files.
Results: the age of the studied sample were range from 14-43 years. The majority of the studied patients 33(80.5%) were suffering from primary amenorrhea and only six had a normal menstrual cycle. Twenty-six (63.4%) patients had serum ferritin levels of more than 3000 ng/dl.
A low average serum FSH, LH, and Estrogen concentration were observed in the group with serum ferritin levels more than 3000ng/dl in a statistically significant p-value, 0.001, 0.002, and 0.003 respectively with inverse Pearson's correlation (-0.4 and p-value 0.0009 for FSH), (- 0.2 with no significant p-value 0.12, for LH) and (-0.3 with significant p. value 0.02 for estrogen level).
Conclusions:
In this study majority of females with thalassemia, Major suffer from disruption of pituitary gonadotropins and possible gonadal sex steroid. High ferritin still is a statistically significant risk factor for gonadal failure.
The needs for more strict iron control, early screening, and proper treatment of gonadotropin and gonadal sex steroid deficiency around the age of 13 years are essential to be offered. More studies and a larger sample are needed to confirm and/or add other risk factors in pubertal thalassemic females.

A Comparative Study between Truview PCD Video Laryngoscope and Macintosh Laryngoscope with Respect to Intubation Quality and Hemodynamic Changes
Authors: Samal Rajiba Lochan , Swain Sumita , Samal Soumya 
Published: August 2021

Background and Aims:
Video laryngoscopes resemble traditional laryngoscopes, but they have a video chip embedded in the tip of laryngoscope blade. This enables the operator to “look around the corners” which is not possible with conventional direct laryngoscopes. The present study was undertaken to compare Truview video laryngoscope and Macintosh laryngoscope for glottis visualization, ease of tracheal intubation, and associated hemodynamic response.

Setting:
The study was conducted in operation theater in a medical college.

Study Design:
It was a randomized prospective observational study.

Materials and Methods:
Sixty patients of American Society of Anesthesiologists Grade 1 and 2 of either sex aged 18–60 years who were scheduled to undergo elective surgery requiring general anesthesia with orotracheal intubation were selected. In patients of Group T (n = 30), intubation was done using Truview video laryngoscope, while in Group M (n = 30), intubation was done using Macintosh laryngoscope. Various airway and hemodynamic parameters were assessed and compared.

Statistical Analysis:
Statistical analysis was done using Chi-square test, paired and unpaired Student's t-test, and ANOVA test. P < 0.05 is considered statistically significant.

Results:
Distribution of modified Mallampati Class (MMPC), ease of laryngoscopic blade insertion, and size of cuffed endotracheal tube used were statistically comparable in both the groups. The time to intubation was more in Group T (37.16 ± 8.23 s) as compared to Group M (29.80 ± 6.75 s). There was a statistically significant better modified Cormack and Lehane (CL) grading view obtained in Group T as compared to Group M (P = 0.025). CL Grades 2 and 3 were not seen in any of either of the group. The mean intubation difficulty score (IDS) was significantly lower in Group T (0.3 ± 0.60) as compared to Group M (0.73 ± 0.86). In both the Groups T and M, the mean heart rate, systolic blood pressure (BP), and diastolic BP were significantly increased from baseline for up to 3 min after laryngoscopy, but they were comparable between the two groups all the time.

Conclusion:
Truview propaganda cum distribution laryngoscope provides a better glottis view than the Macintosh laryngoscope. Although it requires a longer time to intubate using Truview, the overall IDS score was lower as compared to Macintosh laryngoscope. Hemodynamic changes remained similar in both the groups.

Authors: Clements Warren , Kuang Ronny J D , Seah Jarrel , Moriarty Heather K , Vasudevan Thodur , Davis Amanda , Koukounaras Jim 
Published: August 2021

Objectives:
This study aimed to assess what diameter constitutes clinically-significant left common iliac vein (LCIV) compression in patients with May-Thurner syndrome (MTS).

Materials and Methods:
Nineteen patients with MTS were over a 10-year period. Minimum LCIV diameter was compared to 100 asymptomatic controls and 27 age- and gender-matched controls.

Results:
Mean LCIV diameter in MTS group was 3.82 mm (standard deviation [SD] 1.38), control group (mean 7.17 mm SD 3.19,P< 0.0001), and matched control group (mean 6.86 mm SD 3.03,P= 0.007). Statistical threshold analysis showed in MTS patients, a LCIV diameter of 4.7mm or less had an 87.5% sensitivity and 72.7% specificity for the diagnosis.

Conclusions:
Patients with MTS had a minimum LCIV diameter threshold of 4.7mm, and this can be used in correlating the diagnosis of MTS on computed tomography. However, minimum diameters less than 4.7 mm are also seen in the general population and as such compression alone does not constitute a diagnosis of MTS.
Effectiveness of orthopantomograph in vertical mandibular measurements
Authors: Srivastava Anupriya , Raghav Pradeep , Pradhan Sanchit 
Published: August 2021

Objective:
The purpose of this study is to review the literature to provide a better understanding of effectiveness of orthopantomogram in determining mandibular vertical measurements.

Materials and Methods:
A systematic review was conducted through the Medline database (Entrez PubMed), Web of Science, and Scopus. All the articles in which the primary objective was to investigate the effectiveness of orthopantomograph in diagnosing mandibular asymmetry in the vertical plane were included in the meta-analysis.

Results:
Out of 100 potentially relevant articles, only 18 met all the inclusion criteria. The rest all other articles were excluded that were not filling the initial selection criteria, and which did not actually address the accuracy of panoramic radiograph in assessing asymmetry with reasons.

Conclusion:
Caution is advised when using conventional or digital panoramic images to assess vertical measurements. Vertical measurements are usually more accurate than horizontal measurements and angular measurements, but still they are not the true representation of the real objects. Therefore, understanding the limitations of every form of panoramic imaging is required. Future studies with panoramic images generated from three-dimensional data are required to determine whether they overcome the limitations of conventional and digital panoramic images.

Published: August 2021

Background:
Enteral tube feeding intolerance (ETFI) is one of the most common complications of enteral nutrition (EN), which may lead to increased mortality and length of intensive care unit (ICU) stay. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of ETFI and effects on feeding intolerance on nutrition and clinical outcomes in Iran.

Materials and Methods:
This cross-sectional study was conducted in 2019 at the three general ICUs of Imam Reza Hospital in Mashhad, Iran, during 7 days on 245 patients. The collected data included demographic characteristics, primary diagnosis, the Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II (APACHE ІІ) score, Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score, duration of mechanical ventilation, and length of ICU stay. Feeding intolerance was assessed using daily questionnaires for 7 days. ETFI was determined as the interruption of EN based on gastrointestinal causes, including large gastric residuals, abdominal distension, vomiting, diarrhea, and subjective discomfort.

Results:
Overall, 245 critically ill patients (122 males and 123 females) were included in this study, with a mean age of 58.43 ± 19.2 years in three general ICUs. The highest prevalence rate of ETFI was 91.8%, which occurred on the 2nd day although the rate decreased in the following days. The minimum ETFI was observed on the last day (38.8%). Feeding intolerance was associated with the increased APACHE II scores (P = 0.04), SOFA scores (P < 0.001), and duration of mechanical ventilation (P < 0.001) compared with the tolerant patients. The most common causes of ETFI in the patients admitted to the ICU were gastric residual volume (GRV), large GRV, vomiting, and distension.

Conclusion:
ETFI was prevalent in almost two-third (66%) of the critically ill patients receiving EN based on the GRV. ETFI was associated with deteriorated nutritional status and clinical outcomes.

Published: August 2021

Background:
Some studies show changes in the microbiota in people undergoing antineoplastic treatment. Currently, there is not enough evidence of this effect in the treatment of cervical cancer (CC). The objective was to determine changes in the diversity of local cervical bacteria in women with CC receiving chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and brachytherapy.

Materials and Methods:
A descriptive, longitudinal, and prospective study was conducted in 68 women with locally advanced CC with a treatment plan based on the administration of chemotherapy, external beam radiotherapy, and brachytherapy. Cervical-vaginal fluid samples were taken during antineoplastic treatment. The samples were used to isolate bacterial strains. The bacteria were identified at the molecular level by comparing sequences of the 16S ribosomal RNA gene.

Results:
The bacteria identified belonged to three phyla: Firmicutes, Proteobacteria, and Actinobacteria. Nine genera and 25 species of bacteria were identified. The most frequent species were Staphylococcus epidermidis, Corynebacterium amycolatum, and Enterococcus faecalis. There were statistically significant differences when comparing bacterial diversity found in the different stages of treatment (≤0.05). Bacterial diversity decreased as antineoplastic treatment progressed and increased at the end of therapy.

Conclusion:
Antineoplastic treatments generate changes in the diversity of local cervical bacterial communities of women with CC.
