Peningkatan Fasilitas Musala Al Anwar Untuk Mengadakan Kegiatan Salat Jumat Sesuai Protokol Kesehatan Covid-19
Authors: Nugroho Guntur , Yadi Seplika 
Published: March 2021

Musala Al Anwar adalah salah satu musala di Dusun Sawahan, Pendowoharjo, Sewon, Bantul, DIY. Akibat adanya pandemi Covid 19, pelaksanaan kegiatan salat di musala Al Anwar menggunakan jarak saf minimal 1 meter sebagai perotokoler antisipasi penyebaran virus Corona. Hal tersebut menjadikan kapasitas jamaah yang ditampung bangunan musala menjadi berkurang. Sejak berdirinya musala ini, kegiatan salat Jumat belum pernah di selenggarakan karena hanya digunakan untuk mendirikan salat wajib 5 waktu secara berjamaah. Pengurus musala Al Anwar telah berencana mendirikan kegiatan salat Jumat di musala tersebut. Permasalahan yang ada adalah kuranya tempat yang bisa digunakan untuk menampung jamaah. Kegiatan pengabdian yang telah dilaksanakan memberika solusi dengan menambah bangunan atap pada halaman musala. Dengan penambahan konstruksi bangunan atap pada halaman musala tersebut dapat meningkatkan kapasitas penampungan jamaah dan juga dapat digunakan untuk menunjang kegiatan lainnya.

Background: Allergy is a hypersensitivity reaction due to induction of specific IgE binding to allergens on the surface of mast cells. Interleukin-5 is an important marker of hypersensitivity inflammation reactions. Nigella sativa, contain active substance thymoquinone, can reduce inflammatory mediators. Zinc as anti-inflammatory by inhibit releasing mediators from mast cells. Objective was to determine the effect of Nigella sativa (NS) and zinc on IgE and IL-5 serum levels on ovalbumin-induced BALB/C mice.Methods: The study design was a true experiment with post-test only control group using BALB/C mice. The study was conducted at Sultan Agung Islamic University’s laboratory on March-June 2020. Inclusion criteria were female BALB C mice, 6-8 weeks, 22-25 grams, and healthy. Thirty mice were divided randomly into 5 groups; negative control, positive control, NS group, zinc group, and NS + zinc group. All groups treated for 28 days. Allergic reactions tested by skin test with OVA, intervention response assessed by IgE and IL-5 serum levels.Results: At the end of study completed, obtained 6 negative controls, 6 positive controls, 6 NS groups, 5 zinc groups, and 5 NS+zinc groups. Two mice s died before intervention completed. Serum IgE and IL5 levels were significantly difference between treatment groups (Kruskal Wallis test; p=0.007 and One-way ANOVA test; p=0.020). The result of logistic regression test, IgE levels was the most significant in the NS+zinc group (p=0.006) and IL-5 levels was the most significant in the zinc group (p=0.002)Conclusions: Nigella sativa, zinc, and its combination can reduce IgE and IL-5 serum levels of ovalbumin-induced BALB / C mice.

Published: March 2021

Background: The modern technology (TMT) had helped to detect cardiac impairment in diabetes patients relative to past. This study had attempted to use modern tools for detection of cardiac impairment in patients who attended OPD in a medical college of Rewa district. Objectives of the study was to evaluate cardiac dysfunction and factors associated with cardiac dysfunction (using values of TMT) in diabetic patients.Methods: A descriptive study was done with help of recording history of variables like smoking, alcohol, BMI, HBA1C value, cholesterol level and others. Chi square was done to assess test of significance.Results: Diastolic dysfunction was more in patients with diabetic complications than those without diabetic complications. Most patients having peripheral neuropathy, nephropathy and retinopathy had diastolic dysfunction. Patients had also shown high incidence of positivity to TMT. Half of the patients (50%) positive results for stress test were higher with cases who led a sedentary life style (13.64%). Most of patients (70%) had serum. cholesterol level less than 200 mg/dl but the positive results for stress test were higher in patients with Serum. cholesterol level 200 to 239 mg/dl. Conclusions: The study could shower light on the conclusion that left ventricular diastolic dysfunction in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients is more relative to systolic dysfunction.
Comparative evaluation of strain ratio on sonographic elastography and T2* values on 3 Tesla magnetic resonance imaging in differentiating malignant from benign axillary lymph nodes in breast cancer
Authors: Sharma Shweta , Bansal Richa , Jain Shubham 
Published: March 2021

Background: The study aimed to assess whether strain ratio and T2* values can improve the sensitivity and specificity of differentiating metastatic from benign axillary lymph nodes in breast cancer patients taking histopathology as reference standard.Methods: The study was done on 43 patients. A multi-echo transverse T2*W MR sequence was obtained with TE = 0.9- 1.5 ms, TR=37.2 ms and flip angle = 25°. Sonographic elastography was done using high frequency linear probe (L3-16 MHz). Manual selection of the region of interest was done on suspicious lymph nodes for calculation of T2* values and strain ratio. ROC curves were obtained for various T2* and strain ratio values in comparison to histopathological findings as gold standard.Results: Correlation with histopathology was better with T2* values than strain ratio. The sensitivity and specificity were calculated using cut off values obtained from ROC curve (31.225 ms for T2* value and 1.85 for SR) and were 70.37%, 68.75% for strain ratio and 96.29%, 93.75% for T2* value respectively. The positive predictive value and negative predictive value were also assessed, values being higher for T2* than strain ratio. Comparison of areas under ROC curve was statistically significant with p=0.018.Conclusions: T2* can be used as a potential biomarker for differentiating metastatic from benign axillary lymph nodes owing to its high sensitivity, specificity and relative ease of performance. Quantitative assessment of changes in T2* values may allow more objective analysis of signal changes with significant differences between benign and malignant lymph nodes, even in case of partial infiltration.

Published: March 2021

Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical surgical indications, surgical method selection criteria, and histopathological results of patients who were operated on with the diagnosis of adrenal mass in our general surgery clinic.
Material and method: A retrospective analysis was made of the data retrieved from the hospital database of patients who underwent surgery for adrenal mass in our general surgery clinic between January 2016 and January 2021. The data examined included demographic characteristics, American Anesthesiologists Association (ASA) score, preoperative clinical diagnosis, surgical technique, perioperative complications, duration of hospital stay, and histopathological results.
Results: A total of 16 patients underwent surgery for a diagnosis of adrenal mass in the specified study period. The patients comprised 13 (81.25%) females and 3 (18.75%) males with a mean age of 50.31 ± 15.06 years, and mean ASA score of 1.87 ± 0.61. Surgery was performed by open adrenalectomy (OA) in 3 (18.75%) cases and laparoscopic transperitoneal lateral adrenalectomy (LTLA) in 13 (81.25%) cases. The preoperative clinical diagnosis was functional tumour in 10 (62.5%) patients and non-functional mass in 6 (37.5%).
Conclusion: Although adrenal gland tumors are extremely rare, a multidisciplinary approach is very important at the stages of diagnosis, surgical method selection, and postoperative follow-up. Surgeons should select the surgical method in which they are most experienced and trained, to be able to obtain the best results considering the risk factors.
Museums and Heritage Sites — The Missing Link in Smart City Planning: A Case Study of Pune City, India

Published: March 2021

The process of urbanisation has dramatically increased in India in recent years. The Government of India launched Smart City Mission in 2015 which was intended to transform 100 cities into smart cities. The focus of our research is one such city in India on its path to smartification. Pune’s smart city mission focuses on techno-infrastructural development to increase mobility and digital connectivity. Social-cultural and historical indicators are not considered an integral part of this development. Given this, does the smart city mission of Pune privilege the techno-infrastructural development of a city over its social and cultural development? In this paper, we identify museums and heritage sites in Pune as signifiers of a city's culture and analyse metro development plans through GIS to understand whether the museums' current geography mentioned above and heritage sites require alignment with Pune’s planned smart city mission. The research shows that the quest to ‘upgrade’ and ‘modernise’ is not adequately aligned with the role of key historic-cultural institutions such as museums and heritage sites. The case of Pune city shows that, without careful and inclusive development plan, a full roll-out of the smart city project will exclude a large number of historical and cultural spaces such as museums and heritage sites from emerging as an integral part of smart cities across the country and render them peripheral to modern urban life.
Sarah Everard & Nirbhaya: Comparisions and Commonalities
Authors: Bhattacharyya Rituparna 
Published: March 2021

This brief communication in the form of the editorial attempts to draw out the parallels between two grisly incidents in two parts of the world. However, the vertiginous ferocity of the incidents jostled outrage across the nations— Sarah Everard’s kidnap and murder on 03 March 2021 and barbarity on Nirbhaya through gang-rape and subsequent murder in December 2012. Both the cases unveil an underlying culture of misogyny. The question remains how do we tackle misogyny. Perhaps, deployment of Ubuntu through community engagement is a way forward to magnify respect for women via-à-vis respect for humanity.
Life Skill Education: Enhancing Empowerment among Rural Primary School Children in Gujarat, India
Authors: Thomas Bigi , Rajdeep Chandrik 
Published: March 2021

At a time when there is an unprecedented surge in reported cases of abuses against children in its all forms in India and the legal, social as well as educational system continue to fail in either protecting them or empowering them to face their challenges, it is essential to equip them to learn life skills because such initiatives provide the children with a variety of alternative and creative ways of solving problems of everyday life. In this study, the authors attempt to assess the changes witnessed among rural primary school children after three months of life skill education. Improvement in their communication, participation, perception, values, behaviour, and academic performance was included in the assessment areas. Activity-based participatory learning techniques like games, role plays, drama, drawing, and reflections were included in the modules of life skills, which were used in teaching them in a non-threatening atmosphere. The experiential learning method, which gives opportunities to the subjects to have a first-hand encounter with the phenomenon under consideration instead of simply imagining the situation or merely looking into the prospect of doing something about it, helped children to have a clear understanding about these life skills and its applicability in real-life situations. Reflective sessions after hearing, observing, and practicing each skill, enabled children to think loudly about their performances and understanding about each session. Children could learn a lot from others’ viewpoints, observations, and ideas too. Detailed narration with specific activities as well as games practiced, of each module of life skill education taught to children is included in this study. Results proved that there is an improvement in life skills among children in the areas of communication, participation, perceptions, and values after having life skill education.

PAI -1 INHIBITOR AS BIOMARKER OF CARDIORENAL DAMAGE
Authors: Tasić Danijela D. , Tasić Katarina S. 
Published: March 2021

Plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1), which belongs to the family of serine protease inhibitors is the primary regulator of plasminogen activity. PAI-1 is synthesized as a single-chain glycopeptide and is deposited in the platelets in a latent form, from which it is released upon their activation. It is spontaneously converted into stable molecules, unless it reacts with proteins from the plasma. As a powerful inhibitor of fibrinolysis, it participates in the pathogenesis of endothelial damage, processes of accelerated atherosclerosis and thromboembolism. All the diseases of the cardiovascular system which are dominated by the processes of fibrosis and thrombosis lead to an increase in PAI-1 in the circulation. In the emergence and development of atherosclerosis, it plays a role not only in the formation of intraluminal thrombus but also in neointimal proliferation. PAI-1 is not normally present in kidney tissue, but its concentration increases significantly in its acute and chronic kidney disease, thanks to the synthesis by the intrarenally localized inflammatory cells. In addition to genetic predisposition, the factors that directly influence the production of PAI-1 are the following: glycemia, insulin and various neurohumoral factors. It is not normally present in the kidney tissue, but its intrarenal concentration increases significantly in acute and chronic kidney diseases. Numerous studies have confirmed the significant role of PAI-1 in the development of diabetes complications. During the last decade there has been a growth of interest in the introduction of non-invasive methods or biomarkers that would assess the degree of fibrosis in the kidney. Many studies have confirmed association between kidney and heart disease. It is not only that these diseases share common risk factors, but many other mechanisms have been suggested. Plasminogen activator inhibitor -1 plays a role in the pathogenesis of endothelial damage, processes of fibrosis and thrombosis, development of diabetes complications and acute and chronic kidney diseases.

The objective of our study was to compare the effects of two remifentanil dosing regimens, used during induction-delivery period of cesarean section, and of remifentanil-free control on maternal intubating conditions and hemodynamic response to endotracheal intubation as well as on neonatal outcome. Seventy seven ASA physical status I-II women with singleton term pregnancy, who were scheduled for elective cesarean section in general anesthesia and have given written informed consent, were enrolled in this prospective, randomized controlled study and divided in three groups: A - 31 patient received 1 µg/kg remifentanil bolus before the induction of anesthesia, followed by 0.15 µg/kg/min remifentanil infusion that was stopped after the skin incision; B - 27 patients received only 1 µg/kg remifentanil bolus; C - 19 patients did not receive remifentanil until the delivery of the baby. Intubating conditions were qualified as excellent, good or poor. Group A had significantly higher number of patients with excellent intubating conditions (p = 0.011); majority of patients with good intubating conditions were in group C (p = 0.017). Systolic, diastolic, main arterial pressure and heart rate raised significantly in group C compared to A and B (p < 0.001). Neonatal outcome did not differ between groups – all neonates were vital with first minute Apgar scores ≥ 8. In conclusion, our dosing regimen of remifentanil 1µg/kg bolus given immediately before the induction followed by 0.15 µg/kg/min interrupted after skin incision provided the best compromise between the achievement of excellent intubating conditions, attenuation of maternal hemodynamic stress response to endotracheal intubation and avoidance of neonatal respiratory depression.

This article represents the review of current knowledge on prolactin physiology, etiopathogenesis, clinical features, assessment , differential diagnosis ,and teatment of hyperprolactinaemia in the female patient.
THE EXPRESSION OF ADVERBIAL QUALIFICATON IN THE SPEECH OF PRESCHOOL AND ELEMENTARY SCHOOL CHILDREN FROM VRANJE
Authors: Stanković Dragana 
Published: March 2021

This paper analyses the case constructions that preschool and elementary school children from Vranje use to express adverbial qualification. The aim of this paper is to determine which case forms preschool and elementary school children from Vranje use to express the category of adverbial qualification and in which case structures standard language case form enters most easely. The speech of 40 examinees of different age, sex, place of residence, parents’ education was analyzed. The material was collected by the method of spontaneous conversation. Аll recorded case forms are analyzed and described by the descriptive method.The most stable analytical form are determined by the percentage analysis. The conducted analysis showed that preschool and elementary school children from Vranje express the meaning of adverbial qualification by the analytical constructions in fuction of genitives, accusatives, instrumentasl and locatives. They are used to express the meaning of instrumentation, mediativity, comitivity, criteria, distributivity and comparativity. However, under the influence of standard language, the infiltration of flective form was recorded. The standard case form influences most intensively on the analytic construction in the fuction of the genitive. On the other hand, the construction in the fuction of locative is more resistant to the influence of lingustic standard. Considering that the study of the dialect syntax of cases and the speech of children is rarity in dialectological researches, the conducted research is justified and important for further researches in this field and for the teaching of Sebian grammar in Prizren-Timok speaking area.
SELFIES, PERFORMATIVITY, AND INDIVIDUALISM
Authors: Stojanovic Prelevic Ivana 
Published: March 2021

The paper analyses the influence of selfies on public performance. Contemporary media public is called by some theorists (Rojek, 2015) the “egocentric public”, primarily the users of social networks. Hedonism, consumption and egoism are only some of the characteristics of the modern society, which also points to the characteristics of visual culture. From a philosophical viewpoint as one of the phenomena of visual culture to which special attention is given starting with psychologists, art theorists and communication agents, and all the way to philosophers, the selfie supports the hypothesis that individualism is characteristic to contemporary culture.The paper examines the performance strength of the selfie (Senft, Baym, 2015) as well as the characteristics of the modern media public. The methods include the analytical and descriptive methods. The conclusion is that the selfie confirms that contemporary culture is dominated by individualism and that, from a pragmatic point of view, the contemporary media public belongs to the “culture of selfies“ in which the subject simultaneously becomes an object emphasizing narcissism and the illusionary focus on the other.
