Educational Concepts and Implications Derived from Surah Al Qasas: An Analytical Study
Authors: Dr. Hamid Saif Qassem Thabet Alqadri  
Published: July 2022

This study aimed to highlight the status of Surah Al Qasas among other Surahs of the Holy Qur'an as well as to investigate significant educational principles, values and styles included in the Surah. The researcher used the descriptive method based on analysis and deduction. The study findings revealed that Surah Al Qasas is one of the Meccan Surahs of Qur’an, whose main goal is to show the true balance of power and values represented in the power of God, and the value of belief in Him. The findings also showed that the Surah includes a number of educational principles, values, styles and meanings, which should be derived and applied in education. Based on these concepts and principles, the educational theory in the Muslim community should be developed. The reason behind the imbalance in the value and ethical system of today's Muslim community is attributed to the absence or lack of incorporation of such values deduced from Surah Al Qasas into the curricula and institutions of Islamic Education. In light of these results, the study recommends the need for integration of and interaction between Islamic educational institutions, particularly the family, the mosque and the school, in activating and applying educational concepts and implications deduced from Surah Al-Qasas. It is also recommended that educational policies in the Muslim community should be re-analyzed and re-developed, taking these educational concepts and implications into consideration.
Keywords: educational styles, Surah Al Qasas, values, educational principles, educational implications.
Posttraumatic Glomus Tumor of the Digital Nerve with Atypical Presentation
Authors: Kwiecien Grzegorz J. , Meaike Jesse , Inwards Carrie Y. , Rhee Peter C. 
Published: July 2022

Case:
A 53-year-old man sustained an injury to his left index finger and underwent presumably traumatic neuroma excision from the radial digital nerve 2 years ago. He presented with a painful mass distal to the prior site of neuroma excision with distinctly different symptoms from those that led to his index surgery. Thus, he underwent excisional biopsy of the mass which was adherent to his radial digital nerve consistent with a benign glomus tumor on histologic examination.

Conclusion:
Digital nerve glomus tumors are rare. In most of the cases, some portion of the digital nerve requires excision but decreased pain can be expected.
Modified McLaughlin Procedure Using a Double-Row Suture Anchor for Chronic Locked Posterior Shoulder Dislocation
Authors: Velasquez Garcia Ausberto 
Published: July 2022

Case:
A 49-year-old highly active man had a direct fall on the left shoulder, causing a chronic locked posterior shoulder dislocation. Radiographic analysis revealed a reverse Hill-Sachs lesion (RHSL) that affected 31% of the articular surface. He was successfully treated with a modified McLaughlin procedure that included a double-row suture anchor as a novel fixation approach to secure the lesser tuberosity transfer and the subscapularis tenodesis.

Conclusion:
The reported approach for reconstructing the RHSL provides adequate stability, pain reduction, and functional outcomes. It may be considered as an option for joint preservation in extensive humeral head defects.
Oil Recovery by Low-Rate Waterflooding in Low-Permeability Water-Wet Sandstone Cores

Published: July 2022

Summary
Smart water or low-salinity (LS) water injection are environmentally friendly methods for efficient hydrocarbon recovery. Wettability alteration toward more water-wet conditions and increased spontaneous imbibition (SI) of water are responsible for enhanced oil production. Wettability alteration and SI to expel oil from the low-permeability matrix are time-dependent processes and both injection rate and oil viscosity are important factors affecting the contribution of capillary and viscous forces to oil production.
Low flooding rate must be applied in laboratory corefloods to allow for SI and improved sweep to take place. Residual oil saturation by waterflooding and SI has previously been determined in low-permeability limestone and in higher permeability sands under various flooding rates, wetting conditions, and initial oil saturations. In this study, the effect of flooding rate on oil displacement from low-permeability, water-wet Bandera Brown outcrop sandstone cores has been examined. Viscous forces have been varied by injection at two different rates in addition to SI experiments and using mineral oils with different oil viscosities.
The results showed small differences in oil recovery by SI and viscous flooding at high and low rates, indicating that capillary forces contribute significantly to the oil mobilization and production process from this low-permeability, water-wet rock. By varying the oil viscosity, the results indicated that capillary forces were especially important for oil displacement at higher oil viscosity as the ultimate oil recovered by low-rate injection was higher than that from the high-rate injection. Capillary number calculations indicated that viscous forces should be dominant in the recovery tests; however, the experiments showed that capillary forces were important for efficient oil displacement from the low-permeability, water-wet cores used in this study. There was no direct link observed between generated pressure drops at high and low injection rates, including SI, and the ultimate oil recovery. Thus, to simulate oil production in the middle of the reservoir, it was concluded that low-rate waterflooding is needed in laboratory tests to allow SI into the matrix to displace oil by positive capillary forces.
The combination of using oils that differ in viscosity at different injection rates could add some additional information to the literature on how to increase the efficiency of waterflooding with a low injection rate.

Published: July 2022

Summary
In this paper, we present a new approach for simulating reservoirs with tilted fluid contacts produced by hydrodynamics. The proposed method solves a nonlinear inverse problem to determine the aquifer flow field that best reproduces the observed contact tilt. The computational effort required to solve this inverse problem is reduced by choosing a pressure-based objective function and applying gradient-based optimization. This approach is entirely automated, in contrast to previous works that have used laborious trial-and-error methods to estimate the aquifer flow field. In addition, the proposed method introduces no additional physics beyond hydrodynamics to model reservoirs with tilted contacts.
The proposed method is integrated into a parallel reservoir simulator. A synthetic reservoir is constructed by introducing an artificial tilt, and the new approach is applied to estimate the aquifer flow field. The estimate produced by the proposed method matches the true flow field well and is able to prevent large fluid motions near the contact surface when simulating production from the reservoir. The proposed method is compared with an existing approach that uses capillary pressure adjustments to hold the tilted contact in place. The proposed method is shown to outperform the existing approach without significantly impacting the simulation results.

Abstract
The inhibitory management effect is usually un- derestimated in artificial control systems, using biological anal- ogy. According to our hypothesis, the muscle hypertonus could be effectively compensated via stimulation by bio plausible patterns. We proposed the approach for the compensatory stimulation device in development of previously presented archi- tecture of neurointerface, where (1) neuroport is implemented as DAC and stimulator, (2) neuroterminal – as neurosimulation of a set of oscillator motifs on one-board computer. In the set of experiments with 5 volunteers we measured the efficacy of motor neuron inhibition via antagonist muscle or nerve stim- ulation registering muscle force with and without antagonist stimulation. For the agonist activation, we used both voluntary activity and electrical stimulation. In the case of stimulation of both agonist and antagonist muscles and nerves, we exper- imented with delays between muscles stimulation starts in the range 0...20 ms. We registered the subjective discomfort rate. We didn’t identify a significant difference between antagonist muscle and nerve stimulation in both voluntary and stimulation of agonist activity. We determined the most effective delay between stimulation of agonist and antagonist muscle/nerve as 10–20 ms.

Abstract
Background:Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a major chronic disease and a common cause of death. Analysis of risk factors of complications in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease death is the most important. Computed tomography (CT) which can be used to measure CT emphysema score and pulmonary artery diameter may be related to the complications of COPD. Methods: We retrospectively studied the correlation between CT emphysema score and pulmonary artery diameter PA in patients with COPD in intensive care unit (ICU).We has selected 145 patients with AECOPD who underwent mechanical ventilation in ICU of our hospital as the data of inpatients in ICU from December 2013 to January 2021. The correlation analysis and logistic regression analysis of multiple indexes of patients were analyzed according to the observation indexes such as survival after 28 days. Results: According to the survival, the current sample size was divided into survival group and non survival group. there are significant differences in CT emphysema Score, PA and PaCO2 between the two groups. The CT emphysema Score and PA were related to 28 day survival,The CT emphysema Score and PA emphysema were 0.605 and 0.507, respectively; It can be considered that the pulmonary artery diameter influence AECOPD is slightly less than the CT emphysema Score. Conclusion: CT emphysema Score and pulmonary artery diameter greater than 34mm is a clinical value of the prognosis of AECOPD patients admitted to ICU by chest CT examination. The worse the emphysema, the worse the prognosis and this outperformed Pulmonary artery diameter.

Abstract
A factorial design 23 was used to evaluate the influence of temperature, catalyst and time and esterification degree (DE) of pectin obtained from mango, orange and tangerine peels as well as tamarind seeds by using the acid hydrolysis method. The study showed that a high temperature positively influenced the efficiency percentage of pectin yield for the four second generation biomasses. Nevertheless, the temperature showed a greater influence in the solubility and diffusion of the acid solvent in the tamarind seed matrix, getting a pectin recovery 32.9%. To determine the %DE, it was observed that the most statistically significant value depends on the studied biomass. The %DE and the nature of the pectin are determining factors in the pectin’s final use, in the present work the pectin extracted was used to produce furfural, a precursor of high value chemicals. The furfural production was achieved through alkaline hydrolysis and enhanced using the Maillard reaction, reaching a maximum concentration of 71.8 g/L which represents a 42.1% increase from the alkaline hydrolysis.
Influence of PDO and ENSO with Indian summer monsoon rainfall and its changing relationship before and after 1976 climate shift

Published: July 2022

Abstract
In this study, we investigated the possible relation between the Indian summer monsoon and the combination of the different phases of Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO) and El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) before and after the climate shift in 1976. This study is carried out using IMD’s rainfall dataset, HadISST v1.1 dataset and twentieth century reanalysis dataset by comparing anomalies of the respective parameters from 1901 to 2020. It is found that when positive (negative) phases of PDO and El Niño (La Niña) co-occur, deficit (surplus) rainfall are likely to occur over entire India. SST signatures of both phenomena are evident in this context. However, when negative (positive) PDO and El Niño (La Niña) co-occur, the signal is mixed and it is unlikely that either surplus or deficit rainfall conditions will occur over entire India. SST signatures are disrupted and minimised. In other words, when ENSO and PDO are in (out of) phase they enhance (counteract) the conventional monsoon-ENSO relationship. After confirming climate shift in 1976, the study periods were further divided into pre and post climate shift periods based on Niño 3.4 index and PDO index and analysed their impact on the Indian summer monsoon rainfall. In the pre-shift example, in-phase conditions exhibit similar qualities to those described above. Rainfall patterns are more indicative of ENSO than PDO. In the post-shift situation, the positive anomaly of SST in the PDO and Niño region is significantly stronger than in the pre-shift phase. When compared to the pre-shift example, positive rainfall anomalies are amplified during positive PDO and El Niño, while negative PDO and La Niña show a weakening of positive rainfall anomalies. The out-of-phase condition has a balancing effect due to the counteracting impact, but with an increased positive anomaly of SST. In that combination, rainfall patterns with PDO characteristics rather than ENSO characteristics emerge. Low level wind anomalies and other circulation features are consistent with the above result.
Viticulture extension in response to global climate change drivers - lessons from the past and future projections
Authors: Guiot Joel , Bernigaud Nicolas , Bondeau Alberte , Bouby Laurent , Cramer Wolfgang 
Published: July 2022

Abstract
The potential areal extent of agricultural crops is sensitive to climate change and its underlying drivers. To distinguish between the drivers of past variations in the Mediterranean viticulture since Early Antiquity and improve projections for the future, we propose an original attribution method based on an emulation of coupled climate and ecosystem models. The emulator connects the potential productivity of grapevines to global climate drivers, notably orbital parameters, solar and volcanic activities, demography and greenhouse gas concentrations. We found that variations in potential area for viticulture during the last three millennia in the Mediterranean Basin were mainly due to volcanic activity, while the effect of solar activity and orbital changes were negligible. In the future, as expected, the dominating factor is the increase in greenhouse gases, causing significantly drier conditions and thus major difficulties for viticulture in Spain and North Africa. These constraints will concern significant areas of the Southern Mediterranean Basin when global warming exceeds +2°C above pre-industrial conditions. Our experiments showed that even an intense volcanic activity comparable to that of the Samalas - sometimes considered as the starting point of the Little Ice Age at the mid 13th century - would not slow down this decline in viticulture yield in the southern margin of the Mediterranean area.

Published: July 2022

Abstract
Background: Our aim was to explore the risk factors for chronic pain and related miRNA phenotypes in patients with lung adenocarcinoma after video-assisted thoracoscopic lobectomy using prospective clinical studies. Methods: A total of 289 patients with early invasive adenocarcinoma undergoing thoracoscopic lobotomy were included. Blood was collected 1 day before surgery for miRNA detection. General patient information, operation duration, continuous drainage time of the chest, leukocyte count before and after operation, and postoperative pain scores were recorded. Follow-up occurred 3 months after surgery. Depending on whether chronic postsurgical pain occurred, the patients were divided into two groups. Risk factors for chronic postsurgical pain and related miRNA phenotypes were screened using binary logistic regression analysis.Results: Included in the final analysis was 232 patients, and the incidence rate of chronic postsurgical pain was 37.9%. Compared with the non-chronic postsurgical pain (CPSP) group, the CPSP group had higher body mass index, higher preoperative history of chronic pain, longer postoperative drainage tube indwellment duration, higher NRS scores 1, 2 and 3 days after surgery, and lower expression of miRNA 146a-3p , and higher expression of miRNA 550a-3p and miRNA 3613-3p in peripheral blood (P < 0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that patient body mass index, preoperative history of chronic pain, average NRS score after operation and preoperative peripheral blood miRNA 550a-3P expression were risk factors for the development of chronic postsurgical pain.Conclusions: Preoperative body mass index, history of chronic pain, expression of miRNA 550a-3P in the peripheral blood, and postoperative numerical rating scale score were independent risk factors for CPSP after thoracoscopic lobotomy in patients with early invasive lung adenocarcinoma.

Published: July 2022

Abstract
To make full use of urban household balcony space, an urban aquaponics system for balconies was constructed to investigate the purification effects of four different substrates (volcanic stone, ceramic pellets, ceramic rings, and nanorods) and six plants (mung bean sprouts, hollow cabbage, water celery, lettuce, leek, and water chestnut) on fish culture wastewater. The substrate material and plant combinations with the best purification effects were screened, and the results showed that volcanic stone had the strongest purification ability for ammonia nitrogen, chemical oxygen demand, phosphate, and total phosphorus, with removal rates of 88.8%, 63.1%, 95.1%, and 83.3%, respectively. Additionally, nanorods had a strong purification effect for ammonia nitrogen and total nitrogen. Compared to the other substrate types, there were more unique bacterial species on the surface of volcanic stone, among which amoeba species were the most dominant (92.42%). Among the six tested plant species, mung bean sprouts had the highest contribution to nitrogen uptake (94.96%), and water chestnut had the highest contribution to phosphorus uptake at 12.07%. Finally, the combination of nanorods and water celery was the best at purifying the wastewater. This study provides a theoretical basis and new ideas for the construction of urban aquaponics systems on balconies, which will help to achieve green farming and the efficient utilization of water resources.C.I.C.

Published: July 2022

Abstract
Rice is highly sensitive crop to salt stress, especially at reproductive stage, and obtaining salt-tolerant genotypes is key for the rice production in salt-affected soils. In this study, ten mutant lines (obtained through gamma ray and pre-selected for their tolerance to salinity) accompanying by three Iranian traditional rice varieties (TRVs) were evaluated for biochemical and morpho-physiological parameters related to salt tolerance under saline field condition. The experiment was conducted as a randomized complete block design with three replications during two growing seasons. The salt tolerant mutant lines exhibited higher proline accumulation, K+ concentration, and activities of antioxidant enzymes, and lower Na+ concentration, Na+/K+ ratio, malondyaldehide (MDA) content that led to higher grain yield and quality under saline field condition, as compared with TRVs. Higher yield in these tolerant mutants was associated with more number panicle per hill, number filled grain per panicle, and 1000-grain weights. Results of correlation as well as principle component analysis also indicated that grain yield had high correlated with proline content, Fv/Fm index, stomata conductivity, SOD activity, MDA content, concentration of sodium (Na+) and Na+/K+ ratio at the reproductive stage under saline field condition, indicating that indirect selection according to these physiological criteria would be more effective approach for screening salt tolerance. According to these results, mutant lines 13 − 3, 32 − 18 and 22 − 1 indicated superiority in the grain yield and agronomical traits such as early- maturity and dwarfism, and also desirable grain quality that are promising mutant lines for cultivation in salt-affected coastal areas.
