Locus Terikat dalam Tarekat: Eksistensi Kampung Khalwatiyah Patte’ne di Tengah Urbanitas
Authors: Nur Khilda Wildana 
Published: August 2018

An early Tasawwuf has already existed since Islam religion was first brought to Indonesia in which Tariqa traditions contributed to the spread of the faith. The Tariqa of Khalwatiyah Samman is one of the Islamic mysticisms which has developed and been in existence until now. The number of the Tariqa’s followers reaches hundred thousand of people spread in various loci including Patte’ne village in Maros Regency, South Sulawesi. The strategic location becomes an urbanity anomaly toward the surrounding integrated area. The Patte’ne village promotes its existential identity as a consistent locus tied to Khalwatiyah Tariqa. The implementation of this can be seen in the spatial pattern of the area, in the cultural values reflecting the activities applied either in daily rituals or annually ceremonial agendas, and in the human resources acted as role models adopted from the Khalwatiyah teaching. The approach of this research uses both descriptive research and a historical approach. The methods of data collecting are surveys, visual materials, and observations. The result of this research indicates that a village will stand valuable if the concept of urbanity remains existent, in the form of both social and economic systems. The implication of those various sectors can create a condition and a balancing role for all the components creating the surrounding area. It demonstrates that the existence of Patte’ne village has become a locus which energizes an urbanity performance, which means that all the available resources have respectively participated so that it creates a mutually symbiotic relationship.

Coexistence in architecture was considered as the process of cooperation between two or more different architectural styles and synergized each others. The Old Buton society consists of Kaomu, Walaka, Maradika, and Batua. The social stratification system in Buton society was reflected in its dwelling. In the architectural context, various attempts to rediscover the identity in each of his work were very pronounced, with varying results. The study was aimed to identified coexistence between Walaka’s house and parliament building using a comparative causal approach. The results concluded that the coexistence between the Walaka’s houses and parliament building could be found in the form of philosophical, meanings, symbols, function on the modified floor plan, view, and sections.The coexistence between the house of Walaka’s with govermental position and parliament building could not be found between under the Walaka’s house and the parliament building foundation, tangkebala sasambiri and overstek console at parliament building and the Walaka’s box-shaped pabate and the overstek console from parliament building. The philosophical coexistence was also not founded between wide large and latticed windows at Walaka’s house with ones at parliament building, the Walaka’s bosu bosu and the overstek console without ornament at parliament building, as well as the Walaka’s double-decker roof and the parliament’s double-decker roof.
Palestinian Refugees: A Gendered Perspective
Authors: Nasser Eddin Nof , Nasser-Eddin Nof 
Published: August 2018

This article argues that the situation of Palestinian refugees is still relevant till this day. There are around five million refugees living in neighbouring Arab countries, such as Lebanon, Jordan, Syria and Egypt, as well as neighbouring areas in Palestine itself, like the West Bank and Gaza Strip, under very precarious conditions. Their situation is extremely unstable as any changes in the region can influence them directly.
The need to address this issue is particularly important because Palestinian refugees (as well as internally displaced Palestinians) have been both historically and politically marginalised. In particular, I will argue for a need to gender the debate around the Palestinian refugees, because the distinct experience of women Palestinian refugees has been overlooked within this context. Most literature has focused on the Palestinian refugees as a holistic population, which assumes all refugees share the same struggle. However, understanding the position of women within the context of the refugees and the unique struggles they face is essential to understanding their particular experiences as refugees and in highlighting their differential needs; this is why a feminist perspective is needed within the field of refugee studies.
This article is based on a feminist journey drawing on research interviews with female Palestinian refugees in camps in Jordan, and with Syrian Palestinian women in Turkey, Jordan and Europe.

Misalkan R merupakan gelanggang komutatif dengan unsur satuan dan T merupakan himpunan multiplikatif dari semua unsur regular R. Gelanggang hasil bagi dari R, yaitu RT^-1, senantiasa dapat dikonstruksi sehingga dapat dilakukan penyisipan R ke dalam RT^-1. Salah satu kaitan antara gelanggang dan modul adalah melalui order modul teta (M) . Order modul dapat dipandang sebagai gelanggang komutatif. Lebih jauh, order modul merupakan subgelanggang dari gelanggang hasil bagi. Gelanggang yang setiap ideal tak-nolnya dapat dibalik disebut gelanggang Dedekind. Konsep ideal yang dapat dibalik diperumum ke dalam teori modul. Pada teori modul, telah dikembangkan konsep submodul yang dapat dibalik. Dengan demikian pengertian modul Dedekind dapat dibangun. Pada pengkajian keterkaitan antara struktur dari M suatu modul-R dengan modul-teta (M) , ditemukan bahwa sifat-sifat pada modul-R juga mempengaruhi sifat-sifat pada modul- teta (M). Modul-teta(M)merupakan modul Dedekind, order modul merupakan gelanggang Dedekind dan order modul adalah tertutup secara integral jika M merupakan modul-R Dedekind yang dibangun secara hingga. Hasil utama dalam penelitian ini membahas karakterisasi modul Dedekind yang dibangun secara hingga terkait dengan sifat order modul.Kata kunci: modul Dedekind, order modul, submodul yang dapat dibalik.

Authors: ÇİFCİ Aydın , ÖZKAN Melike 
Published: August 2018

Anemi
her yaşta görülebilen kanın oksijen taşıma kapasitesini etkileyen
multifaktöriyel bir bozukluktur. Anemi bir hastalık olmayıp, dünyada en sık
rastlanan laboratuvar parametre bozukluğudur. Tüm yaş gruplarında yaş ile
birlikte artmakla birlikte %10’lara varan anemi vardır. Türkiye’de üreme dönemindeki kadınların 2/3’ünde demir
eksikliği, 1/3’ünde ise anemi vardır. Demir eksikliği anemisinin tüm dünyada en
sık nedeni menstrüasyonla kaybedilen demirin yeterince alınamamasıdır. Demir
kaybı menstrüasyon dışında başka pek çok nedene de bağlı gelişebilmektedir. Özellikle
malignite tanıda atlanmaması gereken bir durumdur. Bu derlemede bu kadar sık görülen
aneminin, özellikle de demir eksikliği anemisinin nedenlerine bakış ve
tedavisinde yeni yaklaşım önerilerinde bulunulması amaçlanmıştır.

Published: August 2018

Background: Axonopathy is closely linked to the development of diabetic encephalopathy induced by type II diabetes (T2D). Berberine has been shown to cross the blood-brain barrier and holds promising effect for neuronal damage in diabetes. Objective: The present study investigated the protective effect and the underlying mechanism of berberine on neuronal axonopathy in both in vitro and in vivo models. Methods: High glucose/high fat diet and streptozotocin injection-induced T2D rat model was used. Berberine was administered p.o. to T2D rat model for 10 weeks. Morris water maze test, in vivo neuronal tracing, immunohistochemistry, and western blot analysis were performed to evaluate the protective effects of berberine in T2D-induced diabetic encephalopathy rats. Primary cultured neurons were used to further explore the underlying mechanisms in vitro. Results: Berberine dramatically reduced blood glucose and serum insulin levels and alleviated insulin resistance. Berberine significantly attenuated memory impairment, axonopathy, and tau hyperphosphorylation, and also restored PI3K/Akt/GSK3β signaling pathway in T2D rats. In vitro, berberine induced an increase in the phosphorylation of PI3K/Akt as well as GSK3β in high glucose-treated primary neurons. Furthermore, berberine-induced PI3K/Akt activation also resulted in the dephosphorylation of tau protein, which could improve axonal transport impairment in high glucose-treated primary neurons. Pretreated neurons with LY294002, an inhibitor of PI3K, partially blocked berberine-inhibited tau phosphorylation and berberine-activated PI3K/Akt signaling pathway. Conclusions: Berberine exerts the protective effect against cognitive deficits by improving tau hyperphosphorylation and the axonal damage through restoring PI3K/Akt/GSK3β signaling pathway.

Published: August 2018

Background: Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is often associated with brain insulin resistance and peripheral metabolic dysfunctions. Recently, we developed a model of sporadic AD associated with obesity-related peripheral metabolic abnormalities in Lewis rats using intracerebroventricular administration of streptozotocin (icv-STZ). Objective: We aimed to assess the effect of intracranially grafted pancreatic islets on cognitive and peripheral metabolic dysfunctions in the icv-STZ Lewis rats. Methods: AD-like dementia associated with obesity was induced in inbred Lewis rats using a single icv-STZ. Two months after icv-STZ, syngeneic islets (100 islets per recipient) were implanted in the cranial subarachnoid cavity of icv-STZ rats. Morris water maze and marble burying tests were used for studying cognitive and behavioral functions. Central and peripheral metabolic alterations were assessed by histological and biochemical assays. Results: The icv-STZ induced increases in food intake, body weight, and blood levels of insulin and leptin without alteration of glucose homeostasis. Grafted islets reduced body weight gain, food consumption, peripheral insulin resistance, and hyperleptinemia. Biochemical and histological analysis of the brain revealed viable grafted islets expressing insulin and glucagon. The grafted islets did not affect expression of brain insulin receptors and peripheral glucose homeostasis. Two months after islet transplantation, cognitive and behavioral functioning in transplanted rats were significantly better than the sham-operated icv-STZ rats. No significant differences in the locomotor activity between transplanted and non-transplanted icv-STZ rats were found. Conclusions: Intracranial islet transplantation attenuates cognitive decline and peripheral metabolic dysfunctions providing a novel therapeutic approach for sporadic AD associated with peripheral metabolic dysfunctions.

Published: August 2018

<p>Background</p><p>The impact of social media and online learning in health professions education has previously shown generally positive results in medical, nursing and pharmacy students. To date there has not been any extensive research into social media and online learning use by prehospital health care professionals such as paramedics.</p><p>Aim &amp; Methods</p><p>We sought to identify the extent to which Irish pre-hospital practitioners make use of online learning and social media for continuous professional competency (CPC), and the means by which they do so. A cross-sectional online survey of practitioners was conducted to obtain both quantitative and qualitative data. The release of the survey was in a controlled manner to PHECC registrants via various channels. Participation was voluntary and anonymous.</p><p>Results</p><p>A total of 248 respondents completed the survey in full by closing date of 31 March 2015, representing 5.4% of all registrants (n=4,555). 77% of respondents were male, and the majority were registered as Emergency Medical Technicians (49%), followed by Advanced Paramedics (26%). Over 78% of respondents used a mobile device in the course of their clinical duties; the majority used an iOS device. Social media and online learning were considered learning tools by over 75% of respondents, and over 74% agreed they should be further incorporated into prehospital education. The most popular platforms for CPC activities were YouTube and Facebook. The majority of respondents (88%) viewed self-directed activities to constitute continuous professional development activity, but 64% felt that an activity that resulted in the awarding of a certificate was better value. Over 90% of respondents had previous experience with online learning, but only 42% indicated they had previously purchased or paid for online learning.</p><p>Conclusion</p><p>Prehospital practitioners in Ireland in the population studied consider online learning and social media acceptable for CPC purposes. The main social media outlets used by PHECC registrants are YouTube and Facebook. Practitioners consider online learning that awards a certificate to be better value than self-directed activities.

<p>The National Prehospital Research Strategy was published in 2008, which aimed to gauge current levels of prehospital research activity in Ireland; ascertain the research strengths that exist in the Irish prehospital community; pinpoint the obstacles to high quality research in the prehospital arena; determine the building blocks for a national prehospital research culture; outline an implementation plan for the strategy; and, identify expected and measurable short and long-term outcomes of implementing the strategy.</p><p>The characteristics of systems that facilitate research productivity include: the promotion of a research culture; mentoring by established scholars; communication with a professional network; rewards for research; and brokered opportunities.</p><p>Almost ten years later, the development of research capacity within the practitioner cohort has not progressed as much as hoped. A culture of research provides a supportive context in which research is uniformly expected, discussed, produced, and valued. We propose that a culture of research does not yet exist among Irish prehospital practitioners. </p>

<p class="resume">L’exposition « … et les marguerites » de Didier Guth à l’Hôtel-Dieu de Tonnerre invite à une réflexion sur l’espace de l’art comme lieu d’immanence (musée, Hôtel-Dieu) ainsi que sur le temps de l’œuvre, plus spécialement sur l’articulation entre perception et mémoire. Le pointillé blanc de Guth amène donc tout aussi bien à s’interroger sur l’espace d’exposition qu’il vient rythmer que sur le temps du spectateur qui l’appréhende.</p>
An investigation into the changing relationship between the gold price and South African gold mining industry returns
Authors: Szczygielski Jan J. , Enslin Zack , Du Toit Elda 
Published: August 2018

Background: It is accepted that the gold price impacts on the value of gold mining companies. Previous studies have shown that, in financial crises, gold is considered a ‘safe haven’ investment in developed markets. Aim: The aim of the study is to investigate whether an investment in gold mining stocks do provide gold price-linked safe haven benefits to investors in an emerging economy. An understanding of the possible safe haven benefits of their companies’ stocks and the variables that influence these benefits would be valuable to managers of gold companies when endeavouring to maximise shareholders’ wealth through hedging and investment decisions. Methods: Regression analysis is applied to investigate the relationship between gold mining returns, the gold price and the rand–dollar exchange rate within a multifactor model motivated by the arbitrage pricing theory. Results: The results indicate that there is a strong, yet changing, relationship between the gold price, the rand–dollar exchange rate and gold mining returns. Conclusion: This study extends the understanding of the changing South African gold mining industry in a world that is still recovering from the global financial crisis.
