AbstractFacing the Qibla is one of the conditions for the validity of the prayer, in performing the prayer facing the Qiblah is one that must be considered, during the prayer, it is obligatory to face the Qiblah either standing, sitting, or lying down. However, in facing the Qibla there is no problem for people who live near the Kaaba, but the problem is areas that are far from Mecca like Indonesia. The average Muslim worship buildings in Indonesia are still far from perfect in terms of the true direction of Qibla. Areas that are very far from Makkah such as Indonesia, in measuring the Qibla direction in Indonesia need calculation methods, both regarding coordinate data and regarding the measurement system, and using tools to measure one of them is the istiwa’ stick. In measuring the Qibla direction, the direction used is the direction closest to the Kaaba, as in Indonesia, which is in the eastern hemisphere, while the Kaaba is located in the western part of the earth slightly to the north about 22.5° which is commonly called northwest northwest.Keywords: Qibla direction, Istiwa’ Sticks', Accuracy, Measuring Qibla direction. AbstrakMenghadap ke kiblat adalah salah satu syarat sahnya salat, dalam melaksanakan salat menghadap kiblat adalah salah satu yang harus diperhatikan, selama dalam melaksanakan salat, wajib menghadap ke kiblat baik itu dalam keadaan berdiri, duduk, maupun berbaring. Namun dalam menghadap kiblat tidak ada masalah bagi masyarakat yang tinggal dekat kakbah akan tetapi yang jadi permasalahan yakni daerah yang jauh dari Makkah seperti Indonesia. Rata-rata bangunan-bangunan ibadah umat muslim yang ada di Indonesia masih jauh dari kata sempurna dalam ketepatan arah kiblat yang sesungguhnya. Wilayah-wilayah yang sangat jauh dari Makkah seperti Indonesia, dalam mengukur arah kiblat di Indonesia perlu metode-metode perhitungan, baik mengenai data koordinat maupun mengenai sistem ilmu ukurnya, dan menggunakan alat untuk mengukur salah satunya tongkat istiwa’. Dalam mengukur arah kiblat maka arah yang digunakan adalah arah yang paling dekat dengan Kakbah, seperti di Indonesia yang berada di belahan bumi bagian timur, sedangkan kakbah terletak di bagian bumi sebelah Barat agak ke Utara yang biasa di sebut Barat barat laut.Kata Kunci: Arah kiblat, Tongkat Istiwa’, Akurasi, Mengukur arah kiblat.

Abstrak
Salat merupakan salah satu syarat sahnya salat, karena tidak semua akhir waktu salat adalah awal waktu salat berikutnya. Sebab ada waktu dimana kita dilarang untuk melaksanakan salat, namun dalam fikih waktu-waktu yang dilarang untuk melaksanakan salat itu dijelaskan secara tidak pasti hanya fenomena alamnya saja yang dijelaskan, maka dari itu hal ini menjadi penting untuk diketahui karena jangan sampai kita melaksanakan salat diwaktu yang terlarang maka yang terjadi dalam ibadah kita tidak mendapatkan pahala melainkan makruh yang mendekati haram. Waktu-waktu pelaksanaan salat telah diisyaratkan oleh Allah swt. Dalam ayat-ayat Al-Qur’an, yang kemudian dijelaskan oleh Nabi saw. dalam hal ini merupakan kewajiban dalam menunaikan salat, terkait pada waktu-waktu yang telah ditentukan. Sebagaimana yang disebut dalam firman Allah swt Qs. An-nisa’ ayat 103. Salat salah satu ibadah yang langsung di wahyukan Allah swt kepada nabi Muhammad saw tanpa lantaran malaikat, pada waktu ia menjalankan Isra’ dan Mi’raj-nya, yang sesungguhnya sebanyak 50 waktu kemudian diproses menjadi 5 waktu salat wajib, kalimat salat fardhu tersebut sebenarnya sudah dari kumpulan salat-salatnya para nabi terdahulu ialah salat. Hanya saja waktu-waktu salat yang ditunjukkan oleh Al-Qur’an maupun hadis hanya berupa fenomena alam, yang kalau tidak menggunakan ilmu falak tentunya akan mengalami kesulitan dalam menentukan awal waktu salat. Adapun kriteria-kriteria waktu yang dilarang untuk melaksanakan salat sesuai konsep fikih dan memformulasikannya dalam ilmu falak sehingga dapat dipastikan mengenai kepastian waktunya. Tinggi matahari pada waktu-waktu yang dilarang untuk melaksanakan salat disesuaikan berdasarkan konsep fikih. Dan hasil perhitungan ketika matahari terbit adalah pukul 05:37 dengan tinggi matahari -1º04’43,51, sedangkan awal waktu istiwa’ ialah pada saat matahari tepat dititik kulminasi yaitu pukul 11: 52, dan awal waktu ketika terbenam adalah pukul 18:03 dengan tinggi matahari 1º04’43,51.

Abstract
Mycoplasma pneumoniae is a common atypical pathogen causing comunitary-acquired pneumonia (CAP), mostly in children and young adults with age between 5 and 40 years old. Beyond respiratory symptoms, extra-pulmonary features are described, such as skin rash, arthralgia, gastrointestinal symptoms, and heart disease, occurring in less than 5% to 10% of patients(1). This case refers to a 26-year-old patient, without significant medical history or background treatment, immunocompetent, who is presenting to the emergency room for prolonged fever, and conjunctival suffusions. Following the investigations, pneumonia, and conjunctivitis due to atypical bacteria are suspected and appropriate treatment is administered. Along with other multiple infectious agents that could precipitate a respiratory febrile infection with ocular involvement, we should consider also Mycoplasma pneumoniae as a possible cause. Appropriate antibiotic therapy may result in a favorable, but delayed course of the disease.

Abstract
During the early 21st century, the Carpathian Basin was recognised as one of the world’s most important migratory area for the Common Crane, but it is not completely clear, what was its status during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Between 1897 and 1916, a total of 1487 field observation data were published in the journal Aquila from the Carpathian Basin. Our work analysed the timing of the spring migration, how it differed between years and geographical regions, and how the temperature and geographical variables reported above influenced the timing of the migration. The results show that the migration routes of the species have changed significantly over the last century. During the study period, the migration concentrated in the eastern part of the Carpathian Basin, and was particularly rare in the Great Hungarian Plain. There was on average a two-week difference in the timing of migration between the western and eastern parts and between different years. The start and peak of migration were weeks later than today, and this change is mainly due to the effects of climate change. Geographical factors did not influence the migration of the species, whereas higher air temperatures advanced the timing of the migration.
Detecting and Estimating Local Corrosion Damages in Long-Service Aircraft Structures by the Eddy Current Method with Double-Differential Probes
Authors: Uchanin Valentyn 
Published: June 2024

ABSTRACT
Monitoring corrosion in aircraft structures through nondestructive testing is crucial for maintaining long-term aircraft serviceability. Corrosion monitoring is particularly challenging when corrosion damage is situated on internal surfaces of multilayer aircraft structures. The eddy current method is one of the most promising techniques for detecting and measuring such subsurface corrosion damage without direct contact or disassembly. However, due to their low sensitivity traditional eddy current probes with coaxial coils are not well suited for detecting corrosion damages of the local type, such as pitting or corrosion pits, in multilayer aircraft structures. This study tested the use of low-frequency eddy current probes of the double-differential type, characterized by 8 and 10 mm operational diameters, in detecting and measuring hidden corrosion damages of this local type. Such corrosion damages were simulated by means of flat-bottomed drilled holes of differing diameters and depths (or different diameters and residual thicknesses of the inspected sheet in the damaged area). The signals from the eddy current probes were evaluated in the complex plane using a universal eddy current flaw detector. The correlations between the amplitude and phase of the eddy current signal and depth of location of the local corrosion damages were analyzed. Results indicate that it is possible to estimate the residual thickness of the skin in locally corroded areas by measuring the eddy current signal phase, independently of the local corrosion damage diameter (size), providing useful information for residual service life determination.

Authors: Annas  , Nababan Mangatur Rudolf , Santosa Riyadi , Wiratno Tri 
Published: June 2024

Purpose: This research analyzed the translation of Covid-19 WHO Infographics through pragmatics. It aimed to figure out speech acts in Monroe’s Motivated Sequence in source text, translation techniques applied to render, and its impact on quality and shift of speech act.

Theoretical framework: Main theories employed in this research are speech act theory by Searle & Vandervekken (1985) and translation technique by Molina & Albir (2002).

Design/methodology/approach: This is qualitative descriptive research with a single embedded study case, collecting data purposively by applying the document analysis and FGD (Focus Group Discussion), and employing Spradley’s steps of data analysis about domain, taxonomy, componential, and cultural theme.

Findings: The research found some speech acts such as assertive, directive, and commissive spreading in each MMS. The successful translation is mostly caused by the application of equivalent established technique. Unsuccessful translation is caused by modulation technique because the translation cannot reach the equivalency of illocutionary effect, persuasive strategy, and mis-organizing persuasive text based on MMS. This research concluded that the translator’s decision in applying the translation techniques impacted on the shift of the speech acts which is in turn to influence the quality of translation especially on the accuracy. Therefore, it can be confirmed that the translation behaviour in term of translation techniques application and its impact on the quality of translation is the image of the translator’s competency.

Research, Practical & Social implications: Theoretically, this research showed that the translation skill can be supported by the understanding of pragmatics. Practically, this researched can help the translators to improve their skill in translating.

Originality/value: This is original research which is conducted by taking some source text (English version) of infographics about Covid-19 campaigns and their translation (Indonesian version). The infographics is officially released by World Health Organization (WHO) from 2020 to 2022.

Published: June 2024

Objective: The objective of this study is to the recent incidences of terror attacks in the West African sub-region that have only overwhelmed national governments concerned. Using the case studies of Burkina Faso, Mali, Nigeria, and Niger, the paper interrogates the recent scourge of terrorism in these countries within the context of sub-regional security.

Theoretical Framework: The structural conflict theory, which argues that conflict is built into the systems and structures of society, is employed in the work. This is based on the radical transformative agenda promoted by globalization and accentuated by the violent intra-state conflicts in Africa, especially following the restructuring of the international security architecture after the end of the Cold War in 1989.

Method: The methodology adopted for this research utilizes the qualitative research design using the case study approach. Secondary data is engaged for this study, alongside thematic analysis for the harmonization of data.

Results and Discussion: The study discovered that the activities of domestic terror groups is hinged on the unresolved rhetoric of globalization. The study concludes that until there are institutional measures to strengthen the fragile politico-economic structures hurriedly erected after prolonged dictatorships in the countries concerned, the solution to the threat of terrorism will remain a tantalizing mirage. It canvasses for the creation of a civil-military alliance in the war on terror, and the strengthening of democratic institutions to bring about good governance which will make states better equipped to curb terrorism.

Research Implications: The practical and theoretical implications of this research are discussed, providing insights into how the results can be applied or influence practices in the fields of national security, strategic studies and even institutional democracy. These implications could encompass the protection of lives and property within the state, protection of the state’s territorial integrity and the consolidation of democracy by state governments.

Originality/Value: This study contributes to the literature by highlighting the fragilitiy of democracy in West African states as a consequence of prolonged terrorist attacks that are yet to be adequately catered to by civilian governments. The relevance and value of this research are evidenced by it practical applicability across the fields of policy and strategic studies, and political science.

Published: June 2024

Objective: The main objective of this study was to determine the conditions under which the pulp of Agave Angustifolia Haw bagasse fibers should be processed to obtain a good quality bread in terms of texture, emulsion, and crumb formation.

Theoretical Framework: Agro-industrial residues have become in recent years alternative raw materials for different production processes, however, they must present conditions that allow food fortification, as is the case of agave residues whose nutrient content has evidence in the literature.

Method: The methodology used in this study is experimental and applied in stages, 10 kg of agave bagasse were collected and processed; different proportions of agave flour were established in bread recipes to test the ideal fermentation for baking.

Results and Discussion: The results obtained revealed that the fine residues obtained from the process of solar drying and grounding of agave bagasse pulp increase high-water absorption capacity, therefore this property favors the hydration of bakery products.

Implications of the research: It is concluded that these residues in a lower concentration combined with flour can be used for the elaboration of bakery products with nutritional value.

Originality/value: This study contributes to reduce agro-industrial waste contamination by transforming them into functional food, which represents a contribution to food security programs and social impact.

Published: June 2024

Objective: University tutoring is crucial to support students' academic, personal and professional success, provides individualized guidance, fosters the development of key skills and promotes student retention, thus contributing to the overall growth of university students. Within this framework, the objective of the research was to determine the relationship between the perception of the tutoring system and the academic performance of students of the National University of the Altiplano of Puno (UNAP).

Methods: The research approach is quantitative, non-experimental, with a cross-sectional correlational design. The population consisted of 474 students, obtaining a sample of 213 randomly selected students. A questionnaire was used to measure the first variable, while for the second variable the minutes of evaluation corresponding to the first academic semester of the year 2023 were consulted.

Results: The results reveal that students of the UNAP have a regular perception of tutoring services, both academic and personalized. While they recognize the existence of these services, they are not fully familiar with all available services. Some students have also used these services occasionally, do not consider them an essential part of their university experience and do not actively seek this type of support, except when they need it.

Conclusion: In conclusion 93.4% of the students assessed the tutoring system as regular, while 6.6% considered it bad or unsatisfactory. In addition, the statistical analysis reveals a strong positive correlation (r=0.795) between the tutoring system and academic performance, supported by a p value lower than the level of significance (0.00 < 0.05) that confirms the statistical validity of this relationship. These findings suggest that as the tutoring system strengthens, there is a considerable and positive association with students' academic performance.

Published: June 2024

Background Pre-eclampsia is a disorder of vascular endothelial dysfunction and vasospasm that occurs after 20 weeks of pregnancy and may occur up to 4–6 weeks after pregnancy. It is defined clinically by hypertension and proteinuria with or without pathological edema. Galectin-3 is expressed in all types of immune cells and organs in human tissues and plays an important role in many biological processes such as inflammatory responses, fibroids, intercellular adhesion, angiogenesis, apoptosis and cell differentiation.Aim of study To evaluate Galectin-3 level in pre-eclampsia and to determine the association with severity of pre-eclampsiaPatients and method A case-control study was conducted in the department of obstetrics and gynecology at Azadi Teaching Hospital / Kirkuk/ Iraq. The duration of study was eight months from 1st of February till 1st of October 2021.The study involved 90 patients, 60 preeclamptic women, and 30 (control group) with gestational age (37- 40). Patients were admitted to the hospital for following up their blood pressure, urine test for albumin, renal function test, liver function test were done, between 37-40 weeks gestational age of the pregnancy.ResultsGalectin-3 was significantly higher among pregnant women with severe preeclampsia in comparison to mild pre-eclampsia and control groups (p=0.0001), while no significant correlation in the mean Galectin-3 between normal and mild preeclampsia (P=0.92). Conclusion: Serum Galectin- 3 is a marker for diagnosis of pre-eclampsia and its severity
