RESOLVING CONFLICT WISELY - A SCHOLARLY DIALOGUE WITH EMERITUS PROFESSOR IN PEACE AND CONFLICT STUDIES
Authors: Abdalla Amr , Mohd Ali Norfadhilah 
Published: March 2023

This dialogue highlights why knowledge on conflict and conflict resolution is an essential skill for the society. It serves a broad introduction to the nature, scope and practices of conflict resolution. Knowledge on conflict resolution allows the society to understand the fundamental problems that give rise to conflicts, the power dynamics and recognition of interests of all parties. It emphasizes the contextual nature of descriptions of peace and conflict and the importance of a thorough analysis in determining the most effective course of intervention. Here, the notion of wise and unwise approaches in conflict resolution is explained referring to the actions taken by parties to curb escalations of disputes, by shifting the emotional positions to the achievement of interests of both parties. Another crucial observation is the relationship between law and the solutions proposed in peace and conflict studies, with examples from both interpersonal and international conflicts. The elaboration is based on the C.R SIPPABIO framework as a comprehensive approach to study conflict resolution introduced by Emeritus Professor Dr Amr Abdalla in his scholarly works. The Islamic viewpoints on conflict resolution are discussed in an interesting way, and it is highlighted how, in addition to focusing on legal interpretations, Quranic interpretations must also take into account ethical dimensions and accountability to God.

Published: March 2023

One of the topics in graph theory that is interesting and developed continuously is metric dimension. It has some new variation concepts, such as star metric dimension. The order set of Z={z1,z2,…,zn }⊆V(G) called star resolving set of connected graph G if Z is Star Graph and for every vertex in G has different representation to the set Z. The representation is expressed as the distance d(u,z), it is the shortest path from vertex u to z for every u,z∈V(G). Star basis of a graph is the smallest cardinality of star resolving set. The number of vertex in star basis is called star metric dimension of G which denoted by Sdim(G). The purpose of this article is to determine the characteristic of star metric dimension and the value of star metric dimension of some classes of graphs. The method which is used in this study is library research. Some of the results of this research are complete graph has Sdim(Kn )=n-1, for n≥3, bipartite graph K(2,n) has Sdim (K(2,n) )=n, for n≥3. Besides complete bipartite graph hasn’t star metric dimension or for m,n≥3 or it can said that Sdim (K(m,n) )=0. Another graph, that is Fan graph has Sdim (Fn )=2 for 2≤n≤5 and for n≥6 Sdim (Fn )=(2n+3)/5.

Dalam pernikahan, kafaah bisa dipahami sebagai keserasian dan keseimbangan antar calon pengantin dengan suaminya agar setiap individu tidak mengalami kesulitan dalam melaksanakan pernikahan. Di masyarakat, ada istilah Bibit (keturunan) Bebet (status ekonomi) Berat badan (tinggi rendahnya kualitas seseorang) adalah ukuran dalam memilih pasangan hidup. Konsep kafaah dalam penelitian ini disandingkan dengan pemikiran KH. Husain Muhammad sebagai tokoh kyai yang mendalami tafsir terhadap ayat-ayat tentang gender dan kerap memperjuangkan hak-hak gender. Penelitian ini termasuk penelitian kualitatif dan data penelitian diperoleh dengan metode wawancara dan data tambahan dari buku-buku serta artikel ilmiah terkait kafaah. Hasil penelitian ini memaparkan bahwa kafaah menurut KH. Husain Muhammad merupakan suatu kecocokan atau kesesuaian antara satu pasangan. Dan kesesuaian yang dimaksud oleh beliau secara idealnya ada emapt aspek, maka yang menjadi prioritas adalah ad-din. Ad-din dalam konteks ini dimaknai sebagai ukuran keserasian dalam moralitas yang unuversal atau dalam artian akhlak, bukan sesuatu idealisme yang bersifat lahiriyyah.

Magnetic resonance imaging enhancement using prior knowledge and a denoising scheme that combines total variation and histogram matching techniques
Authors: Schiano Di Cola Vincenzo , Mango Dea M. L. , Bottino Alessandro , Andolfo Lorenzo , Cuomo Salvatore 
Published: March 2023

IntroductionBrain perfusion-weighted images obtained through dynamic contrast studies play a critical and clinical role in diagnosis and treatment decisions. However, due to the patient's limited exposure to radiation, computed magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) suffers from low contrast-to-noise ratios (CNRs). Denoising MRI images is a critical task in many e-health applications for disease detection. The challenge in this research field is to define novel algorithms and strategies capable of improving accuracy and performance in terms of image vision quality and computational cost to process data. Using MRI statistical information, the authors present a method for improving image quality by combining a total variation-based denoising algorithm with histogram matching (HM) techniques.MethodsThe total variation is the Rudin–Osher–Fatemi total variation (TV-ROF) minimization approach, TV-L2, using the isotropic TV setting for the bounded variation (BV) component. The dual-stage approach is tested against two implementations of the TV-L2: the split Bregman (SB) algorithm and a fixed-point (FP) iterations scheme. In terms of HM, the study explores approximate matching and the exact histogram matching from Coltuc.ResultsAs measured by the structural similarity index (SIMM), the results indicate that in the more realistic study scenarios, the FP with an HM pairing is one of the best options, with an improvement of up to 12.2% over the one without an HM.DiscussionThe findings can be used to evaluate and investigate more advanced machine learning-based approaches for developing novel denoising algorithms that infer information from ad hoc MRI histograms. The proposed methods are adapted to medical image denoising since they account for the preference of the medical expert: a single parameter can be used to balance the preservation of (expert-dependent) relevant details against the degree of noise reduction.

BackgroundThe microbial diagnosis of tuberculosis (TB) remains challenging and relies on multiple microbiological tests performed on different clinical specimens. Polymerase chain reactions (PCRs), introduced in the last decades has had a significant impact on the diagnosis of TB. However, questions remain about the use of PCRs in combination with conventional tests for TB, namely microscopy and culture. We aimed to determine the performance of microscopy, culture and PCR for the diagnosis of pulmonary tuberculosis according to the type of clinical specimen in order to improve the diagnostic yield and to avoid unnecessary, time and labor-intensive tests.MethodsWe conducted a retrospective study (2008-2018) on analysis (34’429 specimens, 14’358 patients) performed in our diagnostic laboratory located in the Lausanne University Hospital to compare the performance of microbiological tests on sputum, induced sputum, bronchial aspirate and bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL). We analysed the performance using a classical “per specimen” approach and a “per patient” approach for paired specimens collected from the same patient.ResultsThe overall sensitivities of microscopy, PCR and culture were 0.523 (0.489, 0.557), 0.798 (0.755, 0.836) and 0.988 (0.978, 0.994) and the specificity were 0.994 (0.993, 0.995), 1 (0.999, 1) and 1 (1, 1). Microscopy displayed no significant differences in sensitivity according to the type of sample. The sensitivities of PCR for sputum, induced sputum, bronchial aspirate and BAL were, 0.821 (0.762, 0.871), 0.643 (0.480, 0.784), 0.837 (0.748, 0.904) and 0.759 (0.624, 0.865) respectively and the sensitivity of culture were, 0.993 (0.981, 0.998), 0.980 (0.931, 0.998), 0.965 (0.919, 0.988), and 1 (0.961, 1) respectively. Pairwise comparison of specimens collected from the same patient reported a significantly higher sensitivity of PCR on bronchial aspirate over BAL (p &lt; 0.001) and sputum (p &lt; 0.05) and a significantly higher sensitivity of culture on bronchial aspirate over BAL (p &lt; 0.0001).ConclusionsPCR displayed a higher sensitivity and specificity than microscopy for all respiratory specimens, a rational for a smear-independent PCR-based approach to initiate tuberculosis microbial diagnostic. The diagnosis yield of bronchial aspirate was higher than BAL. Therefore, PCR should be systematically performed also on bronchial aspirates when available.

Published: March 2023

ObjectiveSurgical closure of the left atrial appendage (LAA) in patients with atrial fibrillation undergoing cardiac surgery can decrease the risk of stroke and thromboembolism and should therefore be considered. In minimally invasive, thoracoscopic, or robotic-assisted mitral valve surgery, however, external procedures such as clip application or epicardial resection are not feasible due to anatomic limitations and the reduced size of the access port. Internal suture closing techniques bear the risk of recurrent LAA reperfusion, so far. We present a novel surgical technique of LAA excision and subsequent defect closure from the interior aspect of the atrium.MethodsWe developed this novel technique during robotic-assisted cardiac surgeries. In short, the LAA is invaginated into the left atrium, excised completely at the base using scissors and the stump is then closed from the inside with a two-layer looped PTFE suture. We give a detailed step-by-step description of the technique.ResultsA total of 20 patients received intra-atrial LAA excision so far. Complete resection of the LAA without any residual stump or bleeding was achieved in all cases. There were no procedure-related complications.ConclusionThe intra-atrial LAA excision technique shows promising preliminary results regarding efficacy, safety, and reproducibility during robotic-assisted cardiac operations and could be recommended for all right-sided minimally invasive cardiac surgical procedures.
Comparative-genomic analysis reveals dynamic NLR gene loss and gain across Apiaceae species
Authors: Liang Xiaohui , Dong Junming 
Published: March 2023

Introduction: Nucleotide-binding leucine-rich repeat (NLR) genes play a crucial role in green plants’ responding to various pathogens. Genome-scale evolutionary studies of NLR genes are important for discovering and applying functional NLR genes. However, little is known about the evolution of NLR genes in the Apiaceae family including agricultural and medical plants.Methods: In this study, comparative genomic analysis was performed in four Apiaceae species to trace the dynamic evolutionary patterns of NLR genes during speciation in this family.Results: The results revealed different number of NLR genes in these four Apiaceae species, namely, Angelica sinensis (95), Coriandrum sativum (183), Apium graveolens (153) and Daucus carota (149). Phylogenetic analysis demonstrated that NLR genes in these four species were derived from 183 ancestral NLR lineages and experienced different levels of gene-loss and gain events. The contraction pattern of the ancestral NLR lineages was discovered during the evolution of D. carota, whereas a different pattern of contraction after first expansion of NLR genes was observed for A. sinensis, C. sativum and A. graveolens.Discussion: Taken together, rapid and dynamic gene content variation has shaped evolutionary history of NLR genes in Apiaceae species.
