Authors: Santasilia Stefano 
Published: March 2024

En este artículo me propongo comentar los conceptos y argumentos centrales del texto “Persona y formación. El aporte antropológico de Edith Stein a la educación” de Rubén Sánchez Muñoz. El comentario se articula en cuatro partes: en las primeras dos, tomo en consideración los rasgos fundamentales de la concepción antropológica de Stein, según la descripción presentada por Sánchez Muñoz, y se desarrolla una crítica de los puntos problemáticos relativos a tal conceptualización; en la siguientes dos considero específicamente la configuración de la dinámica educativa para individuar las relaciones que fundamentalmente entretiene con la teoría antropológica. Concluyo considerando la necesidad de un replanteamiento antropológico capaz de pensar la forma cristiana aceptando el reto de una renuncia a la forma de explicación aristotélico-tomista.Recibido 24/05/2018 • Aceptado: 1/06/2018

Aim. To develop new therapeutic approaches for chronic endometritis with vague symptoms, which is frequently diagnosed in patients with endometrial hyperplasia.Materials and Methods. We collected the material from uterine scrapings in patients (age 25-63 years) with endometrial hyperplasia (diagnosed by ultrasound examination) and abnormal uterine bleeding which occurred during hysteroscopic dilation and curettage. Among the exclusion criteria were intraepithelial neoplasia and atypical endometrial hyperplasia, cancer, systemic inflammation, and hormonal therapy. To verify the diagnosis, we employed immunohistochemistry, digital slide scanning, and morphometry.Results. This study confirmed the value of immunohistochemical diagnosis underlying the pathogenetic therapy of endometrial hyperplasia using non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. Inflammatory markers indicating the distribution and quantitative alterations in cell populations had the highest diagnostic value.Conclusion. We developed a molecularly oriented algorithm for the treatment of patients with endometrial hyperplasia. This algorithm improves existing preventive, diagnostic and therapeutic approaches using immunohistochemical techniques. Such molecular testing can help in making correct therapeutic decisions.

Aim. To analyse clinicopathological features of smoking patients with multivessel coronary artery disease.Material and Methods. We analysed the data from the FRAILTY registry which includes patients with coronary artery disease. In addition to clinical features, we assessed echocardiography data and lipid metabolism levels (total cholesterol, triglycerides, low- and high-density lipoproteins, and high-sensitive C-reactive protein).Results. Of the 381 CAD patients, 178 (46.7%) have smoked at some point (107 (60.1%) current smokers and 71 (39.1%) smoking quitters), whereas 203 (53.3%) patients have never smoked. These groups were comparable in age and cardiovascular disease prevalence. Smokers or smoking quitters’ group had higher proportion of males (78.1 vs. 69%; p = 0.045), higher prevalence of myocardial infarction (61.8 vs. 55.2%; p = 0.047), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (6.4 vs. 2.3%; p = 0.045), and lower extremity peripheral artery disease (47.8 vs. 31.5%; p = 0.041). There were no differences between the groups regarding the risk of death after cardiac surgery. The level of total cholesterol was 1.8-fold higher in smokers and smoking quitters as compared with patients who never smoked (5.5 (3.7; 6.7) vs. 3.0 (2.2; 4.0) mmol/L; p = 0.01). Similar pattern was discovered regarding to the level of C-reactive protein (5.1 (2.4; 5.3) vs. 3.9 (2.2; 4.2) mg/L in smokers/smoking quitters and never smokers, respectively; p = 0.041). The analysis of echocardiography parameters did not reveal statistically significant differences.Conclusion. Smoking frequently accompanies coronary artery disease. Current smokers and smoking quitters were characterized by higher frequency of myocardial infarction, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and lower extremity peripheral artery disease Further, current smokers and smoking quitters had higher serum total cholesterol and C-reactive protein.

Aim. To test a simplified version of assessing the results of total hip replacement based on patient survey data.Materials and Methods. We conducted a cohort retrospective study with historical control. The study included 80 patients interviewed ≥ 1 year after the total hip replacement. Patients were included into the study regardless of gender, age and concomitant pathology. Statistical analysis was performed using EpiInfo software (version 7.2.2.2), Python programming language, and SciPy package version 1.11.4.Results. We developed a compact questionnaire of 33 questions to compare the answers of patients before and after the surgery. After prosthetics, the self-esteem of the patient conditions improved significantly. The results were stratified into 6 blocks of questions by the odds ratio magnitude: emotional state – 49.3 (11.3-215.4); health status – 42.8 (12.4-147.7); ability to move outside the home –14.4 (1.8-113.4); self-care ability at home – 11.7 (5.3-25.7); overall quality of life assessment – 9.3 (3.1-28.4). Such differences before and after surgery were statistically significant for all blocks of questions (p ≤ 0,008). In general, 81.2% (81.2÷81.3) of patients were completely satisfied with the results of the surgery, and 8.8% (8.6÷8.9) were partially satisfied.Conclusion. We tested a study design which allows to evaluate the rate of improvement in selfesteem of patients after the total hip replacement.

Authors: Mohamed Intan Salwani , Mustafa Nabilah , Syed Yusuf Sharifah Norzehan , Rozzani Nabilah 
Published: March 2024

Background and Purpose: Mosques, like every other religious organisation, have financial, human, and physical resources. As a prominent symbol of Islam, it also serves the community as a service provider, not only to their congregations but also to the public. The purpose of this article is to examine and analyse the challenges surrounding mosque financial governance. In Malaysia, the mosque's function and potential have not been fully realised and utilised to continuously impact on society. Even though Malaysia has been a Muslim country since the 15th century, mosques still have concerns. Fund management, regulatory compliance, and facility management are noted issues. Because State Religious Councils are the sole trustees of mosques, it is proposed that mosque governance practices in Malaysia vary and differ according to the laws provided by each state. It was discovered that previous research has mostly focused on fund management because of its potential to raise funds through financial contributions.

Methodology: This paper looks at concerns surrounding mosques' existing financial governance practices in Malaysia. The paper aims to raise awareness among mosque committees and the public about the necessity of good financial governance practises in religious institutions, particularly mosques.

Contributions: As this is a conceptual paper, findings are expected to lead to a comprehensive study on issues and their relationships that will enable us to identify necessary measures to enhance the Malaysian mosque institution.

Keywords: Mosque, financial governance, fund management, regulatory compliance, facilities management.

Authors: Talib Siti Aqilah , Mohd Iskandar Takiah , Muda Ruhaini 
Published: March 2024

Background and Purpose: This study aimed to understand banking practices to legitimise their role in society and meet stakeholder needs in terms of their products and services. This study narrowed its scope to use the underpinning thrust of value-based intermediation (VBI) as it is a primary pillar of the VBI framework. Towards these same ends, the study also sought to gauge how banks integrated their products and services with the framework.

Methodology: This study employed the triangulation approach, which comprised of a content analysis of annual reports of the bank and trend analysis of court cases. This study used Bank Islam Malaysia Berhad (BIMB) as an explorative study.

Findings: The findings indicated a decrease of total occurrences over the years on litigation cases involving BIMB, related to know-your-customers compliance. Meanwhile, the analysis of annual reports of the bank indicated that shariah non-compliance incidents are due to operational failures and lack of shariah knowledge among the staff. This study highlighted the need for the banks to strengthen the know-your-customer compliance, besides enhancing and promoting Islamic financial literacy and ethics to their stakeholders.

Contributions: This study contributes a novelty in this area of study by using data triangulation on court cases and annual reports to provide a more comprehensive perspective on the issue. This study also added to the current literature on VBI, especially within Malaysian context.

Keywords: Corporate responsibility, due diligence, know-your-customer, Islamic ethics, financial literacy.

Published: March 2024

Background and Purpose: Microfinance is the most effective and widely acknowledged method of poverty alleviation across the globe but these days every so and often the MFIs are digressing from their primary mission in pretext of financial and operational sustainability of the organizations. The purpose of this research is to confirm the adherence of double bottom line sustainability of Microfinance institutions (MFIs) and further to identify the determinants of MFIs sustainability in the Philippines.

Methodology: The sample for the study was obtained from MIX- market for the period 1999-2018. Principal component analysis and KU model are used to measure the sustainability scores of MFIs. Later, a panel regression model is applied to identify the determinants of sustainability.

Findings: MFIs are not adhering to the double bottom line sustainability as majority of MFIs were unsustainable at different benchmarks set for the study. The sustainability can be achieved if MFIs start utilizing their assets, focus on improving their efficiency and portfolio quality. MFIs size also significantly influences the sustainability of MFIs.

Contributions: This study highlights the need for policy makers and regulators to develop a regulatory framework to reduce the operating cost and improve the portfolio quality of MFIs in the Philippines. They should also provide guidelines that would help MFIs in improving their asset utilization ratio as it would help them adhere to double bottom line sustainability.

Keywords: Sustainability, microfinance, double bottom line, outreach, financial sustainability.

A Novel Proportional Multi-Resonant Current Controller Strategy for Reduced DC Voltage fed D-STATCOM with Internal LCL Resonance Damping
Authors: Satpathy Guddy , De Dipankar 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
This work focuses on a new topology-control-based D-STATCOM solution with reduced DC bus voltage requirement and with an excellent grid side performance. The proposed solution consists of a main inverter and auxiliary inverter along with a transformer and LCL filter network to achieve the required DC bus reduction. A new controller structure with two proportional-multi resonant controller for the converters with only one of the inductors current as a controlled variable ensures the active damping of the LCL resonance. The power circuit configuration assists the controller to generate a difference in the modulation signal due to non-equal gains in two controllers and helps to achieve the resonance damping without capacitor current sensor. Hence, the corresponding capacitor current sensor can be eliminated. The converter operates for any point of common coupling (PCC) loading conditions and the performance of the controller is immune to the grid impedance variation. A detailed stability study is carried out for the proposed controller. The proposed controller can achieve a very fast dynamic response with an excellent stability margin. The proposed solution is verified through simulation studies and through a scaled-down experimental prototype.

Published: March 2024

Purpose: The present study aims to determine the factors influencing investment intention and actual investment behaviour in mutual funds. The study uses financial knowledge and risk tolerance as moderators and past behavioral bias as a mediator.

Theoretical framework: The Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB) appears to have become a very useful model for predicting various investing behaviours. Therefore, the present utilises the TPB model to analyse mutual fund investment behaviour.

Design/methodology/approach: The convenience sampling method was used to collect respondents from a population of 582 retail investors through questionnaire survey This research used partial least squares structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) as the main method of data analysis using SmartPLS 4.

Findings: Attitude, financial knowledge, and risk tolerance emerged as the most important determinants of mutual fund investment intention. This highlights the significance of creating favorable conditions in terms of accessibility, which may encourage and ease the decision of investors to purchase mutual funds.

Research, Practical & Social implications: Marketers can explain how their mutual fund offerings would help both the market and investors. Marketers should prioritize proper communication about the benefits of mutual funds to investors, as communication is regarded as a critical tool for the success of mutual fund products.

Originality/value: To understand individual investors' intentions to engage in mutual funds, the impact of attitude, subjective norms, and perceived behavioural control on investor intentions and, actual investment behaviour were hypothesised and analysed, financial knowledge and risk tolerance functioning as moderators.

Authors: Juniarti  , Nathania Caroline , Krisnanda Adetya 
Published: March 2024

Purpose: This study focuses on whether the company's reputation moderates the role of CSR in improving financial performance.

Method/Design/Approach: This research was conducted on companies that follow the Corporate Image Index (CII) 2015-2019 and are listed on the Indonesian Stock Exchange. A company's CII score indicates its reputation level. A total of 180 observations met the research sample criteria.

Results and Conclusion: The results indicate that CSR has no direct relationship with good financial performance. However, reputation has a positive effect on financial performance. It has been proven that the more reputable a company is, the stronger its appeal to improve financial performance. Interestingly, when CSR is moderated by reputation, it shows a positive relationship with financial performance.

Research Implications: These results contribute to fixing previous findings by confirming the role of a firm's reputation in the association between CSR and firm performance. Therefore, ignoring a firm's reputation will mislead the conclusion of the benefits of CSR.
