Ein Diskurs über Glaubwürdigkeit im Koran: Propheten und Poeten in

Sūrat aš-Šuʿarāʾ
Authors: Tamer Georges 
Published: April 2024

Abstract
Der Koran und die vorislamisch-arabische Dichtung sind durch diskursive Intertextualität miteinander verbunden. Obwohl der Koran keine Dichtung ist und Muḥammad andere Ziele verfolgte als die Dichter, wurde er von seiner Umgebung als einer von ihnen angesehen. Der Koran weist diesen Vorwurf vehement zurück, zeigt jedoch auffällige philologische Ähnlichkeiten zur Dichtung, übernimmt Motive und invertiert Ideen aus den Gedichten. Eine zentrale Frage in diesem intertextuellen Zusammenhang ist die Glaubwürdigkeit der koranischen Verkündigung. Aus diesem Grund betont der Koran in den mekkanischen Suren auf mehreren Ebenen die Abgrenzung Muḥammads von den Dichtern. Dies wird besonders deutlich in Sure 26, Sūrat aš-Šuʿarāʾ. Hier wird bekräftigt, dass die Verkündigung göttlichen Ursprungs ist und keinesfalls mit satanischer Inspiration verwechselt werden darf. Der Koran führt sieben Episoden an, um die Einordnung von Muḥammads Sendung in die biblische und altarabische Tradition der Prophetie zu untermauern. Das aus diesem Kontext entstandene Prophetenparadigma wird abschließend in Kontrast zur Darstellung der Dichter als Herumirrende und Lügner gesetzt.
Revisiting the Accounts of the Political Assassinations in the Prophet’s Lifetime
Authors: Perlman Yaara 
Published: April 2024

Abstract
The historicity of accounts concerning the political assassinations of several rivals of the Prophet Muḥammad has recently been called into doubt on the basis of a literary analysis of these accounts. This article offers an alternative view of the historical value of these assassination narratives by scrutinizing the accounts of the killings of three Jewish rivals of the Prophet. It argues that certain details of the political assassinations in Medina and Khaybar that are found in rare accounts merit strong trust, and it questions the methodology of applying a literary approach specifically to the accounts of the assassinations, as literary devices are found in reports of nearly every episode pertaining to the Prophet’s lifetime.
A Tale of Two Cities: Jābarṣā/Jābalqā and Their Metamorphoses
Authors: Sariyannis Marinos 
Published: April 2024

Abstract
Although the twin cities at the west and east edges of the world, Jābarṣā (Jābarṣ, Jābalṣā, Jāburṣā) and Jābalqā (Jābalq, Jābarqā), are somehow commonplace in Islamicate cosmographies throughout the medieval period, surprisingly little research exists on them. The main lines of the legend, as formulated by the medieval traditionalists and cosmographers, are as follows: there are two cities at the uttermost east and west parts of the inhabited world, where the sun rises and sets. The inhabitants suffer from the extreme heat and the noise made by the sun in its rising and setting; they have to hide in caves and make their own noise to be protected. In the various versions of the story, some elements lack or differ; the cities are often connected with other legends related to the edge of the world, such as Dhū l-Qarnayn, the Gog and Magog/Yājūj and Mājūj, Muḥammad’s night journey, the remnants of the ʿĀd tribe, and so forth. The paper traces the origins of the legend, its formation and various formulations during the Islamic Middle Ages, the significant change it underwent in the late medieval Illuminationist (ishrāqī) philosophy, and finally its survival and fading away to a status of folktale utopia in Ottoman literature and scholarship.
Unlocking the future of hepatocellular carcinoma treatment: A comprehensive analysis of disulfidptosis-related lncRNAs for prognosis and drug screening
Authors: Wang Haojun , Wang Wei 
Published: April 2024

Abstract

Background
The disulfide stress-induced cell death known as disulfidptosis is characterized by the disintegration of cytoskeletal proteins and F-actin as a result of an excessive buildup of disulfides within the cell. The relationship between disulfidptosis-associated long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) progression is still not clearly understood. In this article, we aim to explore the crucial role of lncRNA in HCC.

Methods
We initially obtained lncRNA related to HCC and clinical data from TCGA. The genes associated with disulfidptosis were identified through co-expression analysis, Cox regression, and Lasso regression. Additionally, we established a prognostic model for verification.

Results
The risk model constructed with disulfidptosis-related lncRNA has been confirmed to be a good predictor of high and low-risk groups of HCC patients through survival curves, independent prognostic analysis, concordance index (C-index), ROC curves, and Kaplan–Meier plots. We also discovered differences in the response to immune targets and anticancer drugs between the two groups of patients, with GDC0810, Osimertinib, Paclitaxel, and YK-4-279 being more effective for patients in the high-risk group.

Conclusion
In conclusion, we have developed a risk model that can guide future efforts to diagnose and treat HCC.
The Prospection and Retrospection of Experiential Purchases as More Meaningful Memories: Social and Affective Implications
Authors: Puente-Diaz Rogelio , Cavazos-Arroyo Judith 
Published: April 2024

Abstract
Consumers can spend their money on material or experiential purchases with important affective and social implications. Consequently, the present study had two objectives, to examine the influence of the type of purchase, experiential versus material, on the construction of meaningful memories prospectively and retrospectively; and to examine the positive influence of this interpretation in terms of anticipated social connection and nostalgia and reliving intentions. Four experiments were conducted. The results of study 1 showed that experiential purchases were interpreted prospectively as more meaningful memories, and were positively related to social connectedness. Experiments 2 and 3 showed that experiential purchases and special experiential purchases were interpreted as more meaningful memories and were positively related to nostalgia. The last experiment showed that special purchases were interpreted as more meaningful memories, leading to greater nostalgia.
Ni2Mo3N: crystal structure, thermal properties, and catalytic activity for ammonia decomposition
Authors: Hund Sophie , Gómez-Cápiro Oscar , Ruland Holger , Heppke Eva M. , Lerch Martin 
Published: April 2024

Abstract
Ni2Mo3N was synthesized by ammonolysis of NiMoO4, prepared by a sol-gel-based modified Pechini route. X-ray powder diffraction measurements confirmed that Ni2Mo3N crystallizes in a filled β-Mn type (cubic space group P4132) with a lattice parameter of a = 6.6338 Å. Group theoretical methods were applied to elucidate the relation between the crystal structure of Ni2Mo3N and that of the rock salt type. The high-temperature behavior was investigated in-situ by X-ray diffraction measurements in flowing ammonia gas at temperatures up to 875 °C. Ni2Mo3N exhibits significant catalytical activity for ammonia decomposition, which is critically discussed in comparison to literature.
Ionic conductivity of nanocrystalline γ-AgI prepared by high-energy ball milling
Authors: Jodlbauer Anna , Gombotz Maria , Gadermaier Bernhard , Heitjans Paul , Wilkening H. Martin R. 
Published: April 2024

Abstract
The compound AgI crystallizes, depending on temperature and pressure, with various crystal structures. While α-AgI is the stable form at elevated temperatures, the β and the γ forms exist at lower temperatures. Variants with stacking sequences different than in pure β-AgI and γ-AgI enrich the complex crystallographic situation for AgI. In the study presented here, we converted a mixture of β-AgI and γ-AgI into nanostructured γ-AgI by mechanical treatment, that is, by high-energy ball milling of such a mixture under ambient conditions. Our work extends an earlier study by Ahmad (Z. Naturforsch. 2015, 70b, 17). We used variable-temperature, potentiostatic conductivity spectroscopy as well as electric modulus measurements to characterize the electric transport parameters. For the case that the sample is heated to temperatures near and above 420 K, preliminary information on the “resistance” of the electric conductivity against healing of defects are also collected. As compared to the unmilled but mixed sample, whose Ag+ ionic transport is dominated by those ions residing in the γ-phase of AgI (0.25 eV vs. 0.46 eV in β-AgI), ball milling only leads to a small increase in overall electric conductivity (by a factor of 3–4) for nanocrystalline γ-AgI (0.25 eV). This observation is perfectly in line with a recent observation for the fast ion conductor Li10GeP2S12 (Hogrefe et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2022, 144, 9597): In materials with already rapid diffusion pathways, nanostructuring and the introduction of defects and distortions do not lead to significantly enhanced ion transport. Here, a careful analysis of data from conductivity and modulus spectroscopy helps identify which dynamic parameters are mainly responsible for the change in the overall conductivity upon mechanical treatment of coarse-grained γ-AgI.

In brief
Preantral follicles constitute the largest follicle reserve in the mammalian ovary. This study assesses a mechanical isolation method to maximize the number of follicles retrieved from a defined cortex volume.

Abstract
Primordial, primary, and secondary follicles (collectively defined as preantral follicles) constitute the most abundant source of gametes inside the mammalian ovarian cortex. The massive isolation of preantral follicles and the refinement of stage-specific protocols for in vitro follicle growth would provide a powerful tool to boost the rescue and restoration of fertility in assisted reproduction interventions in human medicine, animal breeding, and vulnerable species preservation. Nevertheless, together with an efficient culture system, the most significant limitation to implementing in vitro follicle growth is the lack of an efficient method to isolate viable and homogeneous subpopulations of primordial, primary, and secondary follicles suitable for in vitro culture. Our study provides a strategy for high-yielding mechanical isolation of primordial, primary, and early secondary follicles from a limited portion of the ovarian cortex in the bovine animal model. In the first part of the study, we refined a mechanical isolation protocol of preantral follicles, adopting specific methodological strategies to separate viable and distinct subpopulations of primordial (oblate and prolate forms), primary, and early secondary follicles from 0.16 cm3 of the ovarian cortex. In the second part of the study, we tested the effectiveness of the isolation protocol, considering the individual’s age as a critical factor, bearing in mind the progressive decrease in the ovarian reserve that naturally accompanies the reproductive life span. Our study provides a way for designing quantitative and conservative fertility preservation approaches to preserve organ function and minimize the invasiveness of the interventions, also considering age-related differences.

Authors: Senatorov V. A. 
Published: April 2024

The increasing complex geological and hydrogeological conditions ore deposit mining, deeper excavation sites, and ambitious business expansion strategies, necessitate the use of high-performance, heavy-duty self-propelled machinery and winning equipment. Such activities significantly strain mine ventilation systems and demand innovative safety measures during mining.This study assesses the influence of interconnected production variables on the aerological safety of mining operations. It provides real-world data on emissions from diverse sources within mines. The analysis includes an examination of current methodologies for estimating the air volume needed to dilute exhaust gases from diesel-powered machinery. Through numerical simulation that accounts for changes over time, the study was able to predict how exhaust gas concentrations would disperse within mines. These theoretical findings were then confirmed through empirical observations made in actual mining setting The field studies conducted, alongside their thorough analysis, underscored the necessity for adopting new, more sophisticated approaches to calculate airflow requirements in mines operating ICE machinery. A particular methodology developed by the MMI of the NUST MISIS (hereinafter referred to as the Methodology) was put forward as the primary tool for this purpose. The Methodology’s precision and benefits were closely scrutinized, revealing its effectiveness in ensuring aerological safety in mines.

Authors: Vatutin N. T. , Sklyannaya E. V. , Gribov V. V. 
Published: April 2024

Glucocorticosteroids are highly effective anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive agents. The drugs were introduced into therapeutic practice from the mid-20th century and are still widely used in the treatment of various diseases. They are an integral part of the treatment of patients with hematological malignancies. One of the clinically significant complications of glucocorticosteroid therapy is steroid-induced carbohydrate metabolism disorders. Diabetes mellitus is one of the main risk factors for the development of cardiovascular diseases, which are the main non-oncological cause of death in the population and a significant treatment complication in patients with malignant neoplasms. Early detection of the disease and improved treatment efficiency increase the survival rate of patients with various types of neoplasms. It is also important to pay attention to quality of life improving in cancer patients after treatment.The aim of this review is to analyze the pathogenesis features, as well as predictors of early detection and prevention of possible complications of persistent hyperglycemia in patients with hematological malignancies.

Published: April 2024

Background. Anemia represents one of the most frequent complications in inflammatory bowel disease and severely impairs the quality of life of affected patients. The etiology of anemia in inflammatory bowel disease patients can be multifactorial, often involving a combination of iron deficiency anemia and anemia of chronic disease. The choice of therapy, focused on the leading cause of anemia, allows for individualized therapy, minimizing the risk of side effects and the cost of therapy.Aim. A comparative analysis of blood parameters before and after treatment was performed.Materials and methods. For 5 years, 47 patients (15 women, 32 men) with inflammatory bowel disease with a median age of 48 years (from 28 to 65 years) were studied. Two groups were formed: patients with iron deficiency anemia and patients with anemia of chronic disease. Patients with combination of iron deficiency anemia and anemia of chronic disease D (n = 21) were not included. A division was also made according to the type of treatment performed.Results. In the iron deficiency anemia group, a statistically significant increase in hemoglobin level was revealed as a result of the use of intravenous iron. During therapy with oral iron and B vitamin therapy, as well as therapy aimed only at correcting gastrointestinal tract pathology, no reliable dynamics of the studied parameters was observed. In the anemia of chronic disease group, there were no significant changes in red blood cell parameters with any of the treatment options (p >0.05).Conclusion. The effectiveness of various therapeutic approaches to correct anemia is controversial. Further follow-up and an increase in the sample size are needed, which will help individualize therapy and improve the patients’ quality of life.

HighlightsThe article shows the positive impact of 3-year cardiology follow-up in patients with atherosclerosis of lower extremities. Aim. To study the impact of outpatient cardiology follow-up in patients with peripheral artery disease on the prognosis and the frequency and outcomes of surgical interventions.Methods. The study included 585 patients with peripheral artery disease who underwent outpatient follow-up - by a surgeon (n = 131) and a cardiologist (n = 454). The groups were compared according to the main clinical and anamnestic data and type of drug therapy. After 3 years, the incidence of adverse outcomes (nonfatal myocardial infarction, nonfatal stroke, new amputations and deaths) and factors associated with adverse outcomes in the selected cohort were evaluated.Results. The group of patients who were followed by cardiologist received optimal drug therapy more often compared with patients followed by surgeon: β-blockers (80.4% vs. 32.8%; p < 0.001), angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors (61.0% vs. 38.2%; p < 0.001), statins (87.0% vs. 63.4%; p < 0.001). Within three years, fatal outcome was more common in the group of patients followed by surgeon (13.0% vs. 6.8%, p = 0.023). The factors that positively affected the prognosis of patients were cardiology follow-up (OR 0.34; 95% CI 0.17–0.7; p < 0.001), taking aspirin (OR 0.12; 95% CI 0.06–0.22, p < 0.001) and statins (OR 0.11; 95% CI 0.05–0.21; p < 0.001).Conclusion. The results of this study confirm the need for more effective cardiology follow-up of patients with peripheral artery disease. This will improve the results of treatment and reduce the number of complications. Further research in this area can help determine the optimal strategies for follow-up and improve the quality of life of patients with peripheral artery disease.

Published: April 2024

Highlights The presented literature review points to new questions associated with cognitive impairment in patients with congenital heart defects. We propose that cognitive and behavioral impairments in patients with CHD are common, but their development trajectory and degree of severity depend on the CHD subtype. Aim. To study the features of auditory and verbal memory in young schoolchildren who underwent cardiac surgery.Methods. The study included 104 children from 7 to 10 years old, who underwent on-pump cardiac surgery for congenital heart defects at the Research Institute for Complex Issues of Cardiovascular Diseases in the period from 2019 to 2022. We analyzed anamnesis data, clinical and hemodynamic picture, the risk of mortality from surgery according to the RACHS scale, and assessed the auditory and verbal memory according using methodical manual by T.A. Fotekova and T.V. Akhutina (block 1 series 3, block 2 series 1) during 1-year follow up.Results. All children had presented with stage I chronic heart failure (functional class II) at the time of hospitalization. The outcome of surgery was mostly positive a year after the surgery: children had no heart failure symptoms or hemodynamic disorders, however, 80% of children had auditory and verbal memory impairments.Conclusion. In addition to standard methods of examining children with congenital heart disease, it is necessary to introduce a comprehensive interdisciplinary approach that would include the assessment of neurocognitive status before and after surgery.
