Published: August 2024

Majelis taklim (known as taklim assemblies or taklim council) in Central Kalimantan uses different references in conveying and discussing fiqh material. This leads to a mixture of ideologies, for example, there are indications of deception in using fiqh references. Hence, the research aimed to find out the pattern of fiqh references used by Majelis Taklim in Central Kalimantan. It used empirical legal research with a sociological juridical type and a socio-legal approach. The research showed the fiqh references used by the majelis taklim appear with various ideologies. And, four fiqh reference patterns were found, including the tendentious, the comparative and a mixture of ideologies or non-schools of thought, the pattern with organizational ideology, and the pattern referring towards the Syafi'i school of thought. From the four characteristics, it seems that the tendentious fiqh pattern, either tarjih maqasid or malat al-af‘al, more likely leads to bringing mudharat (negative) and, even, not given benefit for Muslim community as a whole. However, in practice, there are indications of deception that may not be aware of by the public. If this tendentious pattern accepts ideological pluralism would certainly not be problematic. But, in reality, they are seen as splitting-bamboo politics with a scenario according to their interests and status to promote their ideology. Also, it needs to highlight the comparison of fiqh and a mixture of ideologies or non-schools of thought. It is believed that this pattern has its benefits. On the other hand, people who are less well prepared on az-zari‘ah, will deal with their problems, which may lead to ideological chaos.

Red chili (Capsicum annuum L.) is one of important types of vegetables and also has many varieties that have distinctive colors and shapes, chili is also considerd as one of vegetable that has high economic value. Chili is usually consumed in from of fresh, dried and processed as vegetables and also seasonings, in addition to functioning as a food flavor enhancer. Many obstacles faced by farmers in chili cultivation are plant disturbing organisms such as pests and diseases. Some important pests that commonly attack chili plants are fruit flies (Bactrocera spp), armyworms (Spodoptera litura) and aphids (Aphis gossypii). The purpose of this field practice was to determine the diversity of arthropods and the intensity of pest attacks in Pagaralam City on ten chili fields with different ages. This field practice is expected to provide information about arthropod diversity and attack intensity, especially to farmers as the main actors in agriculture. This insect observation method is carried out using the Diagonal sampling method, Scan sampling (Visual observation) and observing the intensity of the attack. The results of the observations obtained are that the chili farmers have carried out the concept of integrated pest management, but they are not aware of it, and the pests obtained in the field are fruit flies (Bactrocera spp), armyworms (Spodoptera litura) and aphids (Aphis gossypii), and for arthropod diversity it varies on each land.

Abstract

OBJECTIVE
To compare a commercially available accelerometer, FitBark 2 (FitBark 2nd Generation; FitBark) with a previously validated accelerometer, Actical (Actical; Respironics Inc) during periods of activity and rest. We hypothesized that the FitBark 2 would correlate strongly with the Actical during periods of activity and rest.

METHODS
20 dogs between the ages of 1 and 9 years of variable sex, breed, and body weight were enrolled from April through August 2022 in a 1-week pilot trial. Dogs were fitted with a neck collar with both devices mounted on it and wore it continuously for 1 week. Six time points were established to evaluate varying degrees of activity and periods of rest, which included the week, a 1-mile walk, the day of the walk, the hour the walk occurred in, 6 am to 7 am on the morning of the walk, and 11 pm to 12 am on the evening of the walk. Actical and FitBark 2 were compared using linear regression and correlation analysis.

RESULTS
Correlation analysis revealed a very strong correlation between the Actical and FitBark 2 during the entire week of the study, with a moderate correlation at other time points. Linear regression revealed the strength of the relationship by the r2 = 0.85, F1,13 = 76.08.

CONCLUSIONS
FitBark 2 can be used to evaluate the activity and rest of dogs with varying degrees of correlation when compared to the Actical.

CLINICAL RELEVANCE
The time period assessed impacts the correlation of the FitBark 2 and Actical. This should be considered when using the FitBark 2 for data collection.

Abstract

Aim
In case of exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI), the replacement of digestive enzymes with, for example porcine pancreatin or fungal rizoenzymes, is unavoidable under certain conditions. Current guidelines indicate that preparations from porcine pancreas have more advantageous physicochemical properties compared to those from fungi, especially at high bile salt concentrations, and that the latter can, therefore, only be used clinically to a limited extent. Since rizoenzymes are increasingly used in clinical practice, the present in vitro study investigated efficiency of enzymatic activity of rizoenzymes in comparison to pancreatin under various physiological and partly extreme environmental conditions.

Materials and Methods
The lipolytic properties of two typical preparations containing digestive enzymes from porcine pancreatin and rizoenzymes were compared (same dosage of activity units) at different pH values (pH 3–9), with the addition of different bile salt concentrations (0–15 mmol/L sodium taurocholate). Lipolytic activity was measured by quantifying the fatty acids released from olive oil substrate by liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry after enzymatic digestion.

Results
For both enzyme preparations, the lipolytic activity maximum was reached at pH 7 with comparable fatty acid conversion rates (57% pancreatin, 58% rizoenzymes). However, in contrast to pancreatin, rizoenzymes were already active for certain fatty acids from pH 3 to 4. At a bile salt concentration up to 10 mmol/L taurocholate, there was an increase in activity of both enzyme preparations (rizoenzymes 69% vs. pancreatin 58% enzymatic conversion). Only at rather unphysiological concentration of 15 mmol/L during EPI, there was a slight decrease in activity (to 56%) for the rizoenzymes.

Conclusions
Rizoenzymes are an alternative therapeutic option for EPI. Relevant differences between rizoenzymes and pancreatin with regard to lipolytic activity under different physicochemical conditions could not be demonstrated in this study, whereas a potential advantage in favor of rizoenzymes activity at already low pH values was observed.

Published: August 2024

Abstract
Environmental challenges related to plastic waste underscore the urgent need for innovative solutions. Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) have emerged as sustainable alternatives to conventional plastics, particularly in packaging, due to their biodegradability and biocompatibility. However, the cost of PHA production and certain physical limitations compared to synthetic polymers remain significant barriers to widespread adoption. Within this context, Actinophytocola algeriensis, an Actinobacteria species isolated from the Sahara desert in Algeria, holds promise for its biotechnological potential and bioactive molecules. Despite this, our understanding of its enzyme profile, notably the PHA synthase (EC 2.3.1.304), the key enzyme in PHA biosynthesis, remains limited. In this study, the 3D structure of PHA synthase was modeled utilizing the artificial intelligence program AlphaFold, followed by the structural refinement and validation. In addition, physicochemical properties and functional characterization were conducted using various bioinformatics tools. This research signifies a substantial advancement in comprehending the molecular mechanisms underlying PHA biosynthesis in A. algeriensis, thereby fostering the development of innovative biotechnological applications for sustainable biopolymer production.

Abstract
The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of travel agencies' reservation systems and online transaction capacities on their competitiveness. With the developments in technology and the integration of these developments in all business areas, travel agencies have also had to benefit from information and communication technologies. In the research, the primary data were used, and the data were collected by the questionnaire method. The convenience sampling method was used, and data were collected from a total of 566 travel agency managers in Istanbul. According to the results of the research, reservation systems and online transactions capacities of travel agencies affect their competitiveness. Reservation systems and online transactions capacities of travel agencies affect their competitiveness in specific issues such as cost, service quality and market share. Although appropriate and enlightening results were obtained regarding travel agencies technological capacity and competitiveness, research was carried out on the perceptions and evaluations of the managers in this study. In this context, in future studies, studies can be conducted on the relationships between measurable quantitative variables such as the online transactions of travel agencies and the capacity and transaction volume of reservation systems and competition structures. The study reveals that the traditional office travel agencies should be more successful than their competitors in terms of reservation systems and online transaction capacities to gain affordable cost, quality service and more market share.

Objetivo: Descrever o caso de uma pré-escolar com suspeita de paracoccidioidomicose com diagnóstico de linfonodomegalia generalizada internada em um hospital escola no interior do Rio de Janeiro. Detalhamento do caso: Pré-escolar, 4 anos e 2 meses, iniciou quadro de febre baixa por três semanas, realizado tratamento com Ceftriaxona por febre sem foco, porém evoluiu com linfonodomegalias cervicais sendo hospitalizada para investigação do quadro. Recebeu alta hospitalar apresentando teste de mononucleose positivo e afebril. Cinco dias após, iniciou com febre alta, sendo referenciada para término de investigação diagnóstica. Com os exames disponíveis, firmaram diagnóstico em Paracoccidioidomicose, iniciando tratamento medicamentoso com Anfotericina B Deoxicolato, com regressão dos linfonodos. Recebeu alta hospitalar, sendo prescrito Itraconazol oral manipulado por nove a dezoito meses e encaminhada para acompanhamento em ambulatório de pediatria. Considerações finais: A paracoccidioidomicose é uma doença sistêmica, onde todos os órgãos podem ser acometidos, sendo frequente o comprometimento linfático, progredindo para linfonodomegalia generalizada. Embora seja uma doença inflamatória, com resposta satisfatória à terapêutica antifúngica, observa-se que a doença representa um importante problema de saúde pública devido ao seu alto potencial incapacitante, evoluindo para sequelas graves ou, até mesmo, ao óbito caso o diagnóstico seja retardado ou o tratamento inadequado.

Objectives:
The initial drug-eluting bead (DEB)-transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) are often performed after multiple sessions of transarterial infusion chemotherapy (TAI) or conventional TACE. The purpose of our study was to evaluate the factors associated with the occurrence of vascular lake phenomenon (VLP) during DEB-TACE, considering the previous interventional treatments.

Material and Methods:
Forty-nine initial DEB-TACE procedures in 49 patients between November 2010 and April 2024 were included in this retrospective study. VLP was defined as a localized pooling of contrast agents within the tumor in the venous phase of digital subtraction angiography. The laboratory data, pre-treatment imaging findings such as the maximum tumor diameter (≥3 cm or <3 cm) and the presence of enhancing capsule obtained from computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging, size of DEBs, and loading drugs, the total number of previous interventional treatments were recorded and compared between VLP occurrence and VLP non-occurrence groups. The multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to explore the association of factors in predicting VLP occurrence.

Results:
VLP was observed in 16 patients (32.65%) out of 49 patients. The maximum tumor diameter (≥3 cm) and the presence of the enhancing capsule were significantly higher, and the total number of previous interventional treatments was significantly smaller in the VLP occurrence group than in the VLP non-occurrence group (P = 0.0006, 0.0007, and 0.0003). In multivariate analysis, the maximum tumor diameter, the presence of the enhancing capsule, and the total number of previous interventional treatments were significantly associated with the occurrence of VLP (P = 0.0048, 0.0093, and 0.047).

Conclusion:
Our study confirmed that the reported risk factor, the maximum tumor diameter, and the enhancing capsule were significantly related to the occurrence of VLP in DEB-TACE. Further, the occurrence of VLP might be carefully considered when the number of previous interventional treatments is small.

Authors: Gupta Aarti , Rai Anushree , Sen Siddhartha 
Published: August 2024

Objectives:
The goal of this comprehensive evaluation of the literature is to evaluate the methodological quality of the tools available for measuring a child’s posture in relation to cerebral palsy (CP) in accordance with the consensus-based criteria for selection of health measurement instruments (COSMIN) criteria and checklist.

Materials and Methods:
The following inclusion criteria were applied while screening studies found in the PubMed, ScienceDirect, Web of Science, and Scopus databases to determine their eligibility: (1) Clinical examinations of the posture of children with CP; (2) age of 3 years or more at all gross motor function classification system levels; (3) posture evaluation measures described; (4) statistics on responsiveness, validity, and reliability for children with CP; and (5) published in peer-reviewed English-language journals. Data on study features, tool or scale characteristics, and study outcomes were evaluated and discussed. The “quality of research” was evaluated using the COSMIN.

Results:
Seven tools were found and included in this study out of 349,928 studies. Of these, three were observational measurements and four were instruments. The quality of the studies was very good in 40%, adequate in another 40%, and inadequate in the rest of the 20% studies. The evidence’s level of quality for the posture assessment tool’s measurement quality ranged from very low to low. However, none of the tools evaluated every COSMIN-recommended property. There was a lack of evidence about these measures’ responsiveness.

Conclusion:
Research on the measuring quality of tools used to evaluate posture in children with CP is scarce and of low quality. In accordance with the COSMIN guidelines, additional studies are required. The PROSPERO database has this review registered under the number CRD42022333121.
