RELIGIOUS EDUCATION AND CONTAINMENT OF RADICAL ELEMENTS: THE CASE OF PONDOK SCHOOLS IN MALAYSIA
Authors: Fathil Fauziah , Oktasari Wiwin 
Published: November 2018

Islam and militant activities are indeed two ill-assorted and incompatible elements. While the former enjoins harmony and peace, the latter is essentially destructive in nature with no regard for either lives or properties The occurrence of many events which involved radical or militant elements today caused a growing concern that education too, might have been used by some irresponsible groups to spread their radical ideas in order to recruit followers or supporters where young minds are taught to hate people of other beliefs or ideologies and to commit destructive acts. In Malaysia, while phenomenon involving radical ideas is generally under control, still there have been some allegations that a certain style of education particularly of pondok system, being involved in militant-related activities. Based on qualitative approach or content-analysis, this paper attempts to seek out reasons for such allegations, highlighting certain issues and prior events that happened in the country which might have contributed to these contentions. The paper also provides possible means and ways, in view of the existing scenario in Malaysia, in making sure that religious education in the country remains free from the unwanted radical elements or ideas.

SYMBOLISM IN SHALAT (PRAYER): A CONCEPTUAL STUDY ON SHALAT AS THE METHOD OF ISLAMIC EDUCATION
Authors: Sholeh Muhammad Muhtar Arifin 
Published: November 2018

There is no doubt about the importance of shalat (prayer). As mentioned in the verses of al-Quran and some ahaadiits (prophet traditions), there are some importance of prayer, i.e. as the pillar of ad-diinul-Islam, the character of Muttaqiin (pious people), the direct order from Allah, the first-accounted ‘amal (action) in the hereafter, the standard of goodness, the guard from badness, the prove of gratitude, the border between believer and unbeliever, etc-etc. In addition, shalat has many important symbolic meanings which should be implemented in the real life in this world. Symbol can be defined as, by Victor Turner, "a thing regarded by general consent as naturally typifying or representing or recalling something by possession of analogous qualities or by association in fact or thought“ (Turner, 1967:19). Shalat is the symbol of life; Shalat has many values which could be implemented in the life. Symbols in shalat can be traced in its requirements, its movements, its recitations, and symbol of congregation (jama’ah). Symbol can be functioned by understanding and implementing it. Furthermore, shalat has four functions, i.e. communicative, educative, integrative, and safety function. In educative function, shalat can be used as a method of Islamic education. The function of shalat can be played by understanding shalat and implementing it. The main purpose of the paper is to explore symbolic meanings of shalat, in order that Muslims can understand and implement those meanings in the real life. In other words, Muslims are hopefully able not only “to do shalat (prayer)” but also “to establish it”. Both “ritual prayer” and “actual prayer” have to be implemented in the life. Allah Ta’alaa said, in the translation from al-Quran, “And keep up prayer (establish prayer) and pay the poor-rate and bow down with those who bow down (QS al-Baqarah 2:43). In the context of this ayat, “ritual prayer” is to establish prayer, and “actual prayer” is to pay the poor-rate.

Islamic Education Teacher (GPI) is the best character models to form a morality society. Great responsibility that held by GPI need discipline and seriousness to perfome as akhlaq Prophet (PBUH). The quality GPI is crucial to the success of the educational philosopy. However, there were some issues and doubt of the community with the role of GPI that triggers the credibility of GPI akhlaq. In fact, the study of moral competency of GPI somewhat less implemented because most studies focused on teaching practise, motivation and training of Islamic Education Teacher. Thus, this study was designed to examine akhlaq of Islamic Education Teacher as well as focusing to the item that is hard and easier done base on the stage of their ability. Overall, GPI’s morality level is good and the analysis by demographic shown that women GPI have better morality than men’s GPI. GPI teaching in primary schools also demonstrates more competent moral level than GPI who teach in secondary school. GPI teaching in the southern region is also have better morality compared to other regions. The use of Rasch Model as a modern analysis can visualised the akhlaq profile completely.
PIN(2)-monopole Floer homology and the Rokhlin invariant
Authors: Lin Francesco 
Published: November 2018

We show that the bar version of the$\text{Pin}(2)$-monopole Floer homology of a three-manifold$Y$equipped with a self-conjugate spin$^{c}$structure$\mathfrak{s}$is determined by the triple cup product of$Y$together with the Rokhlin invariants of the spin structures inducing$\mathfrak{s}$. This is a manifestation of mod $2$index theory and can be interpreted as a three-dimensional counterpart of Atiyah’s classical results regarding spin structures on Riemann surfaces.
Work Motivation and Job Satisfaction of Sport Management Faculty Members

Published: November 2018

Informed by self-determination theory, this study builds on previous research to examine the work motivation and job satisfaction levels of sport management faculty members, as well as any relationship between their job satisfaction levels and work motivations. A total of 193 sport management faculty responded to a survey consisting of the Job Satisfaction Survey and the Motivation at Work Scale. Results revealed that regarding job satisfaction, faculty members were more satisfied with work itself, supervision, and coworkers and were less satisfied with pay, operating procedures, and reward. While participating sport management faculty had the highest mean in intrinsic motivation, job satisfaction also was significantly positively correlated with identified regulation. Male faculty showed significantly greater overall job satisfaction than female faculty, but gender did not affect work motivation factors. Finally, results revealed no significant differences among tenured, tenure-track, and non-tenure-track faculty in motivation levels, but after controlling for motivation, job satisfaction levels of non-tenure-track faculty were significantly less than those of tenured and tenure-track faculty. Results of this study can assist higher education administrators (i.e., department chairs, deans, provosts) to better understand that this population is highly intrinsically motivated and identifies deeply with their work. Administrators should work diligently to preserve autonomy, a factor that appears to lead to greater levels of motivation and job satisfaction.
Military use of geologists and geology: a historical overview and introduction
Authors: Rose Edward P. F. , Ehlen Judy , Lawrence Ursula L. 
Published: November 2018

Abstract

Napoleon Bonaparte was, in 1798, the first general to include geologists as such on a military operation. Within the UK, the following century saw geology taught, and national geological mapping initiated, as a military science. Nevertheless, military geologists were not deployed on a battlefield until World War I, first by the German and Austro-Hungarian armies and later and less intensively those of the UK and USA. Geologists were used primarily to guide abstraction of groundwater, construction of ‘mine’ tunnels and dug-outs, development of fortifications and quarrying of natural resources to enhance or repair supply routes. Only the USSR and Germany entered World War II with organized military geological expertise, but the UK and later the USA made significant use of military geologists, albeit far fewer than the
c.
400 in total used by German forces. Military geologist roles in World War II included most of those of World War I, but were extended to other aspects of terrain evaluation, notably the rapid construction of temporary airfields and factors affecting cross-country vehicular movement (‘going’). After 1945, more military geologists were used in the USA than Germany or the UK, in these and wider roles, but mostly as civilians or reservists.
Extensional fault-related folding in the northwestern Red Sea, Egypt: segmented fault growth, fault linkages, corner folds and basin evolution
Authors: Khalil Samir M. , McClay Ken R. 
Published: November 2018

Abstract
Segmented, planar, domino-style extensional fault arrays and their associated hanging wall fault-related folds form complex linked basins along the onshore margin of the northwestern Red Sea, Egypt. The extensional fault systems form half-graben basins with kilometre-scale, asymmetrical, doubly plunging longitudinal synclines and narrow, plunging transverse anticlines and synclines. The axial traces of the hanging wall longitudinal folds are curvilinear, sub-parallel to the half-graben Border faults, and bend or are offset at relay ramps and at fault linkage points. Transverse corner fold systems occur at the fault linkage points and fault jogs. The fold geometries, variations in fault displacement, and fault slip indicators indicate that the fold and fault systems are kinematically related and formed during the Late Oligocene–Miocene rifting of the northern Red Sea. The folds were controlled by vertical and lateral fault propagation and by the mechanical anisotropy of the pre-rift strata. The proposed model for these extensional folds is the initial formation of monoclinal flexures above reactivated blind basement faults. Increased displacement, propagation and segment linkage formed hanging wall longitudinal folds and transverse corner folds. The longitudinal folds grew progressively at the expense of the transverse folds and merged along-strike into long hanging wall synclinal basins.
Neoadjuvant Treatment for Borderline Resectable Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma

Published: November 2018

One of the main reasons for the dismal prognosis of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is its late diagnosis. At the time of presentation, only approximately 15–20% of all patients with PDAC are considered resectable and around 30% are considered borderline resectable. A surgical approach, which is the only curative option, is limited in borderline resectable patients by local involvement of surrounding structures. In borderline resectable pancreatic cancer (BRPC), neoadjuvant treatment regimens have been introduced with the rationale to downstage and downsize the tumor in order to enable resection and eliminate ­microscopic distant metastases. However, there are no official guidelines for the preoperative treatment of BRPC. In the majority of cases, patients are administered ­Gemcitabine-based or FOLFIRINOX-based chemotherapy regimens with or without radiation. Radiologic restaging after neoadjuvant therapy has to be judged with caution when it comes to predict tumor response and resectability, since inflammation induced by neoadjuvant therapy may mimic solid tumor. Patients who do not show any disease progression during neoadjuvant therapy should be offered surgical exploration, since a high percentage is likely to undergo resection with negative margins (R0) and, thus, achieve improved overall survival although imaging judged it unlikely. Despite the promising new approaches of neoadjuvant treatment regimens during the last 2 decades, surgery remains the first choice if the tumor appears to be primary resectable at the time of diagnosis. At present, there are no international guidelines regarding the preoperative treatment of BRPC. Therefore, in order to standardize and adjust neoadjuvant treatment in the future, new guidelines have to be determined on the basis of upcoming prospective randomized studies.
De- and Recoupling and Public Regulation
Authors: de Bree Martin , Stoopendaal Annemiek 
Published: November 2018

The concept of decoupling refers to the gap between the formal and the actual world in organizations in which a policy is formally introduced but not actually implemented and effective. Although the phenomenon of decoupling in organizations has been studied widely since the late 1970s, little is known about the reverse process of recoupling. Little is also known about the abilities of public regulators to discover decoupling in regulated organizations and to promote the recoupling that is necessary to diminish the gap between the formal and the actual world. In an experimental project of the Dutch Health and Youth Care Inspectorate, we ethnographically followed how this public regulator changed the focus from prescriptive regulation based on quality and safety indicators to the supervision of the management system of a regulated organization. We call this type of regulation system-based regulation. We found that, by using system-based regulation, a regulator can identify several forms of decoupling that have not been recognized in earlier research. Interestingly, we found indications that, by applying SBR and thus recognizing decoupling, a process of recoupling was supported. With SBR the government can reclaim its influence on the meta level while maintaining the level of freedom of management at the organizational level. Instead of aiming for more or stricter regulation, the government could shift its role to meta-regulation, meaning that the public regulator redefines its role as an assessor and stimulator of the quality of governance in terms of self-regulation. Implications for theory and practice are discussed.
Research prioritisation exercises related to the care of children and young people with life-limiting conditions, their parents and all those who care for them: A systematic scoping review
Authors: Booth Alison , Maddison Jane , Wright Kath , Fraser Lorna , Beresford Bryony 
Published: November 2018

Background: In planning high-quality research in any aspect of care for children and young people with life-limiting conditions, it is important to prioritise resources in the most appropriate areas. Aim: To map research priorities identified from existing research prioritisation exercises relevant to infants, children and young people with life-limiting conditions, in order to inform future research. Design: We undertook a systematic scoping review to identify existing research prioritisation exercises; the protocol is publicly available on the project website. Data sources: The bibliographic databases ASSIA, CINAHL, MEDLINE/MEDLINE In Process and Embase were searched from 2000. Relevant reference lists and websites were hand searched. Included were any consultations aimed at identifying research for the benefit of neonates, infants, children and/or young people (birth to age 25 years) with life-limiting, life-threatening or life-shortening conditions; their family, parents, carers; and/or the professional staff caring for them. Results: A total of 24 research prioritisation exercises met the inclusion criteria, from which 279 research questions or priority areas for health research were identified. The priorities were iteratively mapped onto an evolving framework, informed by World Health Organization classifications. This resulted in identification of 16 topic areas, 55 sub-topics and 12 sub-sub-topics. Conclusion: There are numerous similar and overlapping research prioritisation exercises related to children and young people with life-limiting conditions. By mapping existing research priorities in the context in which they were set, we highlight areas to focus research efforts on. Further priority setting is not required at this time unless devoted to ascertaining families’ perspectives.
The combination of levomepromazine (methotrimeprazine) and rotigotine enables the safe and effective management of refractory nausea and vomiting in a patient with idiopathic Parkinson’s disease
Authors: Hindmarsh Jonathan , Hindmarsh Sharlene , Lee Mark , Telford Richard 
Published: November 2018

Background: This case report describes a patient with known idiopathic Parkinson’s disease, being managed with transdermal rotigotine, whose refractory nausea and vomiting was successfully controlled with subcutaneous levomepromazine. No drug-induced extrapyramidal side effects emerged. Case presentation: A patient was found to have a locally advanced serous carcinoma, causing secondary bowel obstruction. Furthermore, due to compromised oral access, the patient’s oral antiparkinsonian medications for motor control were converted to transdermal rotigotine. Unfortunately, the patient’s nausea and vomiting was refractory to a number of recommended antiemetic options. Case management: Low dose levomepromazine was administered on a, ‘when required’ basis, via subcutaneous injection. Case outcome: After the first dose of levomepromazine, the patient’s nausea and vomiting completely subsided and no extrapyramidal side effects were observed. This was confirmed by daily assessments, revealing no worsening of the motor symptoms associated with idiopathic Parkinson’s disease. Conclusions: The pharmacology of rotigotine and levomepromazine appear complementary and may allow for the simultaneous use of both drugs, with favourable outcomes. This case report highlights that rotigotine may afford protection against antipsychotic induced extrapyramidal side effects, while preserving antiemetic effects. Such combinations may have a role in the end-of-life management of idiopathic Parkinson’s disease.
Perspectives of people with dementia and carers on advance care planning and end-of-life care: A systematic review and thematic synthesis of qualitative studies

Published: November 2018

Background: Advance care planning aims to ensure that care received during serious and chronic illness is consistent with the person’s values, preferences and goals. However, less than 40% of people with dementia undertake advance care planning internationally. Aim: This study aims to describe the perspectives of people with dementia and their carers on advance care planning and end-of-life care. Design: Systematic review and thematic synthesis of qualitative studies. Data sources: Electronic databases were searched from inception to July 2018. Results: From 84 studies involving 389 people with dementia and 1864 carers, five themes were identified: avoiding dehumanising treatment and care (remaining connected, delaying institutionalisation, rejecting the burdens of futile treatment); confronting emotionally difficult conversations (signifying death, unpreparedness to face impending cognitive decline, locked into a pathway); navigating existential tensions (accepting inevitable incapacity and death, fear of being responsible for cause of death, alleviating decisional responsibility); defining personal autonomy (struggling with unknown preferences, depending on carer advocacy, justifying treatments for health deteriorations); and lacking confidence in healthcare settings (distrusting clinicians’ mastery and knowledge, making uninformed choices, deprived of hospice access and support at end of life). Conclusion: People with dementia and their carers felt uncertain in making treatment decisions in the context of advance care planning and end-of-life care. Advance care planning strategies that attend to people’s uncertainty in decision-making may help to empower people with dementia and carers and strengthen person-centred care in this context.
Predictors and trajectory of performance status in patients with advanced cancer: A secondary data analysis of the international European Palliative Care Cancer Symptom study
Authors: Boland Jason W , Allgar Victoria , Boland Elaine G , Kaasa Stein , Hjermstad Marianne J , Johnson Miriam J. 
Published: November 2018

Background: Performance status, a predictor of cancer survival, and ability to maintain independent living deteriorate in advanced disease. Understanding predictors of performance status trajectory could help identify those at risk of functional deterioration, target support for independent living and reduce service costs. The relationship between symptoms, analgesics and performance status is poorly delineated. Aim: The aim of this study is to determine whether demographics, analgesics, disease characteristics, quality-of-life domains and C-reactive protein predict the trajectory of Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS) in patients with advanced cancer. Design: The study design is the secondary data analysis of the international prospective, longitudinal European Palliative Care Cancer Symptom study (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT01362816). A multivariable regression model was built for KPS area under the curve per day (AUC). Setting and participants: This included adults with advanced, incurable cancer receiving palliative care, without severe cognitive impairment and who were not imminently dying ( n = 1739). Results: The mean daily KPS AUC ( n = 1052) was 41.1 (standard deviation = 14.1). Opioids ( p < 0.001), co-analgesics ( p = 0.023), poorer physical functioning ( p < 0.001) and appetite loss ( p = 0.009) at baseline were explanatory factors for lower KPS AUC. A subgroup analysis of participants with C-reactive protein data ( n = 240) showed that only C-reactive protein ( p = 0.040) and physical function ( p < 0.001) were associated with lower KPS AUC. Conclusion: This study is novel in determining explanatory factors for subsequent functional trajectories in an international dataset and identifying systemic inflammation as a candidate therapeutic target to improve functional performance. The effect of interventions targeting physical function, appetite and inflammation, such as those used for cachexia management, on maintaining functional status in patients with advanced cancer needs to be investigated.
