Authors: Awais Muhammad , Muhammad Mahmood Shah Khan  , Mushtaq Afia 
Published: October 2024

The current study examines the Musharakah viability as a potential financing method for SMEs in Pakistan. SMEs face exertion to get external financing, that prevents them from continuous development and growth. Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) are prone to financial resources constraints as compared to large organizations, who easily manage to meet financial institutions' collateral needs. The study is based on the primary data collected from 101 SMEs who had taken the Musharakah financing facility from the Islamic institutions of Pakistan. The required data is collected through a structured questionnaire from the SMEs to determine the owner’s satisfaction level with these Musharakah facilities in Pakistan. The findings of the regression model depicted that risk-sharing, access to financing and knowledge have a significant relationship with the level of satisfaction. Besides, the study found a statistically insignificant relationship between the profit and loss sharing, bank participation, and satisfaction level of the SMEs owners in Pakistan. The study concluded that Musharakah financing features could be a viable alternative financing SMEs mode in Pakistan.

The NCAA, Concussions, and the Lack of Concern for Athletes
Authors: Smith Ronald A. 
Published: October 2024

Abstract
For most of the twentieth century and into the twenty-first century, the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) showed little concern for football brain injuries and concussions. It began with the creation of the NCAA (1905–6) and its new Football Rules Committee failing to effectively address the issue following the death of a Union College football player from a cerebral hemorrhage suffered in a pile-up during a 1905 game with New York University. Five months later, new football rules were introduced ostensibly to create a safer game. No specific rules were created to reduce brain concussions or recurring brain injuries, such as requiring doctors to be at practices and games or commanding medical staff to not allow athletes to reenter games or practices. The nonconcern for concussions and brain injuries continued for a century despite mounting scientific and medical evidence through the entire twentieth century that action by collegiate authorities should be taken. There is evidence that NCAA and institution officials were concerned that efforts to make the game safer might detract from the game's collision component, which drew fans and made football the most important sport in colleges. The century-long tradition of prioritizing profits and popularity over the health and safety of college football players continued even as lawsuits multiplied.

Introduction: Splenic abscesses are rare, with an incidence of 0.14-0.70% in autopsies, affecting mainly men and immunosuppressed patients. Symptoms include fever, abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting. Splenic invasion by colon cancer at the splenic flexure is uncommon. We report a case of cancer at the splenic flexure resulting in a splenocolic fistula and splenic abscess. Case Description: A 43-year-old man, with a history of injectable drug use, presented with diffuse abdominal pain. Tests revealed leukocytosis, thrombocytopenia, and elevated bilirubins and liver enzymes. A CT scan identified thickening in the colon and a splenic abscess. Total splenectomy and left colectomy with colon-colonic anastomosis were performed. Discussion: Splenic abscesses are rare and, when associated with colonic neoplasms, present a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. This case highlights the importance of aggressive surgical intervention to treat tumor invasions and associated complications.

The purpose of this study is to show how the historical site "Ruma Besi" in Madrasah Aliyah in the Banda Islands can be utilized as a learning resource for Sejarah Indonesia. This study used a qualitative descriptive method. The results of field observations and relevant reference sources served as the basis for the source consulted for this study. The results show that the historical site "Ruma Besi" (iron house) is a British and Dutch colonial house that originally functioned as the home of the owner of a nutmeg plantation, or Perkenier. Even though only rubble remains, residents said the house was made of iron, starting with supporting pillars, walls, doors, windows, and roofs. Residents of Rhun Island today know it better as a "house of entertainment" because the site reminds them more of the attractions of Javanese dancers accompanied by Javanese music, which always decorated the afternoon breaks of nutmeg plantation workers at that time. The process of utilizing the historical site "Ruma Besi" as a learning resource for Indonesian history for Madrasah students is carried out by imagining historical facts about Indonesia in the past through a simple research step or discovery inquiry, which allows students to be directly involved as actors in activities. Historical discovery and study. This process is very beneficial for a complete understanding of historical material because of its closeness to the locus and its direct involvement in learning and introducing historical information.

Mamografi
Authors: Kaya Mehmet Ali 
Published: October 2024

Bu çalışmada amacımız meme hastalıklarının tarama ve teşhisinde yaygın olarak kullanılan mamografi cihazları ve bu cihazlarda kullanılan enerji türü hakkında bilgi vermektir. Meme kanserinin erken teşhisi için yaygın olarak kullanılan mamografi, ülkemizde 40-69 yaş arası kadınlarda meme kanserinin erken teşhisi için 2 yılda bir önerilmektedir. Meme kanseri kadınlarda en çok görülen kanser türü olup, dünyada kanser ölümlerinde ikinci sırayı almaktadır. Mamografi cihazında, düşük enerjili (25-40 KVp) x-ışını kullanılmaktadır. X-ışınlarının oluşumunu sağlayan iki farklı mekanizma vardır. Bunlardan biri Bremsstrahlung (frenleme) X-ı­şınları diğeri de karakteristik X-ışınlarıdır. Görüntülemede %15 karakteristik, %85 x-ışını kullanılmaktadır. Tedavide sadece Bremmstrahlung (frenleme) x-ışını kullanılmaktadır. Mamografi, memenin x-ışını kullanılarak görüntülenmesi tekniğidir. Meme, iki tabaka arasında sıkıştırılarak radyografi görüntüsü elde edilir. Mamografi, mevcut ekipmana veya muayene amacına bağlı olarak 2 boyutlu veya 3 boyutlu (tomosentez) olabilir. Mamografiler tarama ve tanı koyma amacıyla iki şekilde uygulanmaktadır. Tarama mamografisi; şikayeti olmayan kadınlarda meme kanserinin erken tanısı için yapılır. Avrupa Görüntüleme Derneği, taramanın geleneksel mamografi veya fosfor-plak bilgisayarlı radyografi ile değil, digital mamografi ile yapılmasını öncelikli olarak önermektedir. Dijital mamografi sisteminde X-ışını tüpü meme bölgesi üzerinde hareket ederek çeşitli açılardan yüksek çözünürlüklü ve yüksek kontrastlı görüntüler çeker. Lezyonun konumu ve durumu hakkında doğru bilgi sağlamak için görüntüler 3 boyutlu olarak yeniden oluşturulur.
La diferencia entre sentencia ejecutoriada y cosa juzgada en el COGEP
Authors: Torres Luna Paola Verónica , Suárez Venegas Ramiro Javier 
Published: October 2024

La presente investigación tuvo como propósito realizar un análisis de la diferencia entre sentencia ejecutoriada y cosa juzgada en el COGEP. La metodología empleada se enmarcó dentro de una investigación bibliográfica-documental, a razón de ello se accedió a diversas plataformas digitales de revistas indexadas, bibliotecas de universidades nacionales e internacionales y portales de órganos de jurisprudencia nacional donde se consultó diversos textos de la doctrina nacional y extranjera sobre la materia. Para el análisis de la información recabada, se empleó la técnica de la lectura analítico-interpretativa. En líneas generales, se concretan ciertas diferencias entre la sentencia ejecutoriada y la cosa juzgada, tales como: la sentencia ejecutoriada se ejecutará tras cumplir ciertos requisitos de ley como la no existencia de recursos pendientes, por haber transcurrido el lapso de tiempo establecido para interponerlos u otros, mientras que la cosa juzgada constituye una cualidad especial asignada por la ley a algunas sentencias ejecutoriadas. La cosa juzgada puede presentar categoría material y formal. De este modo, los efectos de la sentencia ejecutoriada con autoridad de la cosa juzgada material presentan características de ser insusceptible e impone la imposibilidad de la apertura de un nuevo proceso, dado que pone fin a la controversia planteada en el juicio y, la sentencia ejecutoriada con autoridad de la cosa juzgada formal, puede llegar a ser puesta en duda o es discutible, en un proceso posterior para conseguir un resultado distinto al alcanzado en el primer juicio en el cual no se llegó a resolver el conflicto satisfactoriamente.
