Determination of the zero baseline for cadastral surveying practices in marine cadastre / Akhbaaruddin Abd. Hamid
No full textThe administration of land is predominantly a state matter. Hence, a State government authority has inclusive right on their land, which includes the territorial water, defined as being that boundary measured 3 nautical miles from Low Water Mark (LWM) or Lowest Astronomical Tide (LAT) and in Cadastral Survey being referred as Zero Baseline. In Malaysia, Cadastral Practice currently exercise over land parcels in the State is made through eKadaster environment. Any issues or solutions pertaining to land have been consistently referred to the National Land Code 1965 (NLC1965). The current scenario in Malaysia, such as the state of Malacca has seen a rapid development near the sea-shore area. As a result, more land reclamation works are required along the coastal zone or land alienated over the marine area. This trigger JUPEM to work out on the possibility of the issuance of marine title. In fact, the idea of marine title was brought up by a foreign author/researcher way back in 1999 then later been put forward again in 2004 by local researcher. So for a Cadastral Survey in a marine environment, it is rather important to identify the Zero Baseline, which serves as the Datum or Benchmark for carrying out Cadastral Survey towards the issuance of a Land-based or Marine-based Title. In this thesis, legislative and administrative matters and materials related to land alienated in a marine environment were studied and highlighted. It was essential as that determined a clear justification on how should the author/writer moved on to adopt and determine the right baseline for starting the fieldwork and lab work in deriving the potential Zero Baseline for the sampled area. A technique to generate accurate baseline from bathymetric survey using GIS analysis is the part of this study. Results from generated baselines were verified on the ground based upon current cadastre survey procedure and practice, which are related to KPUP Circulars. The accuracy for this study was fulfill the cadastre purpose as shown in Chi Square Report reached Lower Bound limitation in the Chi Square Test at 5% level. The actual value from the Lower Bound and Upper Bound results are 0.893 and 1.107 respectively. Therefore, this research should be a catalyst in realizing the Marine Cadastre concept in Peninsular Malaysia
Systematic Review of Primary Immunodeficiency Diseases in Malaysia: 1979–2020
No full text\ua9 Copyright \ua9 2020 Abd Hamid, Azman, Gennery, Mangantig, Hashim and Zainudeen.Introduction: Primary immunodeficiency diseases (PIDs) are under-reported in Malaysia. The actual disease frequency of PID in this country is unknown due to the absence of a national patient registry for PID. Objective: This systematic review aimed to determine the prevalence rates of PID cases diagnosed and published in Malaysia from 1st of January 1979 until 1st of March 2020. It also aimed to describe the various types of PIDs reported in Malaysia. Method: Following the development of a comprehensive search strategy, all published literature of PID cases from Malaysia was identified and collated. All cases that fulfilled the International Union of Immunological Societies (IUIS) classification diagnosis were included in the systematic review. Data were retrieved and collated into a proforma. Results: A total of 4,838 articles were identified and screened, with 34 publications and 119 patients fulfilling the criteria and being included in the systematic review. The prevalence rate was 0.37 per 100,000 population. In accordance with the IUIS, the distribution of diagnostic classifications was immunodeficiencies affecting cellular and humoral immunities (36 patients, 30.3%), combined immunodeficiencies with associated or syndromic features (21 patients, 17.6%), predominant antibody deficiencies (24 patients, 20.2%), diseases of immune dysregulation (13 patients, 10.9%), congenital defects in phagocyte number or function (20 patients, 16.8%), defects in intrinsic and innate immunity (4 patients, 3.4%), and autoinflammatory disorders (1 patient, 0.8%). Parental consanguinity was 2.5%. Thirteen different gene mutations were available in 21.8% of the cases. Conclusion: PIDs are underdiagnosed and under-reported in Malaysia. Developing PID healthcare and a national patient registry is much needed to enhance the outcome of PID patient care

Mushaf al-quran serta hubungannya dengan Tariq al-syatibiyyah dan al-jazariyyah
No full textKajian ini bertujuan untuk menyingkap kefahaman yang tepat mengenai ruang lingkup mushaf al-Quran dan hubungannya dengan aliran al-Syatibiyyah dan al-Jazariyyah. Ia juga bertujuan memperlihatkan secara umum bahawasanya mushaf tersebut mempunyai berbagai cabang ilmu sepertimana yang telah digarap kan oleh para ulama dalam ilmu ulum al-Quran. Kajian berbentuk deskriptif ini akan membahaskan pandangan para qurra berkaitan mushaf al-Quran serta cabang ilmu yang berkait dengan kedua-dua aliran tersebut. Kesemua data dianalisis menggunakan metode induktif dan deduktif. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahawasanya tidak semua cabang ilmu yang terdapat di dalam mushaf riwayat Hafs boleh disandarkan kepada tariq al-Syatibiyyah dan al-Jazariyyah. Hal ini demikian terdapat cabang ilmu yang telah diakui tawqifiyyah daripada Rasulullah s.a.w.. dan tidak kurang juga yang berdasarkan ijtihadiyyah daripada para qurra. Maka dengan ini jikalau kefahaman ini tidak diperjelaskan secara terperinci kepada masyarakat umum, dikhuatiri masyarakat akan terkeliru tentang aspek tawqifiyyah dan aspek ijtihadiyyah dalam mushaf al-Quran khususnya mushaf riwayat Hafs bin Sulayman al-Kuf
A study on the works of abdulhaq hamid characters of whish consist of nonhuman creatures
No full textAbdülhak Hamid Tarhan'in Tayflar Geçidi, Ruhlar, Arzîler, Bâlâdan Bir Ses adlı eserleri ve özellikle bu eserlerdeki şahıs kadrosu bu yazının içeriğini oluşturmaktadır. Yazar, adı geçen eserlerinde idareci, edebiyatçı, peygamber olarak tarihe mal olmuş şahsiyetlerin ruhlarını fantastik bir karşılaştırmakta ve konuşturmaktadır. Konuşmaların konusunu genel olarak insanlığın önünde hep bir sorunsal olarak kalmış kader, ölüm ve aşk ile Müslümanların güçlü olması, birlik ve beraberlik gibi konular oluşturmaktadır. Hamid'in, adı geçen eserlerinde ve genel olarak Dante, Şekspir ve Hugo gibi edebi şahsiyetlerin etkisinde kaldığı bilinmektedir. Bu bağlamda yazar, kendini gerçeğin somut sınırlarıyla kısıtlamak istemediğinden olmalı ki tabiat üstü aleme yönelmiştir.The literary works "Tayflar Geçidi, Ruhlar, Arziler, Baladan Bir Ses " by Abdülhak Hamid and the characters have been handled in this study. The author in the literary works aforementioned compares the souls of the historical characters such as administrators, literary men, prophets, and makes them talk in a fantastic way. The main idea in these conversations are destiny, death, love, etc. and the idea of solidarity and the power of the Muslims. It has been observed that in the works mentioned above Hamid has been under the influence of the literary men such as Dante, Shakespeare and Hugo. In this context, the author inclined to the metaphysics as he did not want to confine himself with the concrete borders of the trut
Adapting authoritarianism: institutions and co-optation in Egypt and Syria
No full textThis PhD thesis compares Egypt and Syria’s authoritarian political systems. While the tendency in social science political research treats Egypt and Syria as similarly authoritarian, this research emphasizes differences between the two systems with special reference to institutions and co-optation. Rather than reducibly understanding Egypt and Syria as sharing similar histories, institutional arrangements, or ascribing to the oft-repeated convention that “Syria is Egypt but 10 years behind,” this thesis focuses on how events and individual histories shaped each states current institutional strengthens and weaknesses. Specifically, it explains the how varying institutional politicization or de-politicization affects each state’s capabilities for co-opting elite and non-elite individuals.
Beginning with a theoretical framework that considers the limited utility of democratization and transition theoretical approaches, the work underscores the persistence and durability of authoritarianism. Chapter two details the politicized institutional divergence between Egypt and Syria that began in the 1970s. Chapter three and four examines how institutional politicization or de-politicization affects elite and non-elite individual co-optation in Egypt and Syria. Chapter five discusses the study’s general conclusions and theoretical implications.
This thesis’s argument is that Egypt and Syria co-opt elites and non-elites differently because of the varying degrees of institutional politicization in each governance system. Rather than view one country as more politically developed than the other, this work argues that Syria’s political institutions are more politicized than their Egyptian counterparts. Syria’s political arena is, thus, described as politicized-patrimonialism. Syria’s politicized-patrimonial arena produces uneven co-optation of elites and non-elites as they are diffused through competing institutions. Conversely, the Egyptian political arena remains highly personalized as weak institutions and individuals are manipulated and molded according to the president’s ruling clique. This is referred to as personalized-patrimonialism. As a consequence, Egypt’s political establishment demonstrates more flexibility in ad hoc altering and adapting its arena depending on the emergence of crises.
This study’s theoretical implications suggest that, contrary to modernization and democratization theory’s adage that institutions lead to a political development, politicized institutions within a patrimonial order actually hinder regime adaptation because consensus is harder to achieve and maintain. It is within this context that Egypt’s de-politicized institutional framework advantages its top political elite. In this reading of Egyptian and Syrian politics, Egypt’s personalized political arena is more adaptable than Syria’s. These conclusions do not indicate that political reform is a process underway in either state

Magnesium and phosphate level during admission in Sepsis patients in relation with mortality and Morbidity in intensive care unit Hospital universiti sains malaysia
No full textMagnesium And Phosphate Level During Admission In Sepsis Patients In Relation With
Mortality And Morbidity In Intensive Care Unit Hospital Universiti Sains Malaysia. Magnesium and phosphate are electrolytes that important for body homeostasis
and maintains normal body function. Hypomagnesaemia and hypophosphataemia are frequent
phenomenon in hospitalized patient and have a higher prevalence in intensive care. The focus of
this study was to determine the prevalence in these both electrolytes in sepsis patient during ICU
admission and its relation to mortality and morbidity. The main aim of this study is to determine the level of magnesium and phosphate
during ICU admission in sepsis patient admitted to Intensive Care Unit and its relation with
mortality and morbidity. This study was a retrospective study with chart review from 108 sepsis adult
patients admitted to Intensive Care Unit HUSM from January 2010 to July 2011. The baseline
characteristics and ICU outcomes of all patients were retrospectively collected by reviewing their
medical record. Patients characteristic including age, sex, APACHE II score, primary reason for ICU, magnesium and phosphate level during admission, ICU stay and last day in ICU were recorded. Total day required for mechanical ventilation, length of ICU stay, ICU mortality and
recovery were recorded. There were 52.3% (34/65) ICU mortality from group hypomagnesaemia, 32.3 %( 21/65)
normal magnesium and 15.4% (10/65) hypermagnesaemia (p<0.05). There was statistically
significant that 53.8 % (21/39) from patients who were discharge home (recovery) have normal
magnesium level compare to 35.9% (14/39) hypomagnesaemia. Hypomagnesaemia group
required longer ventilatory support with mean 8.06±7.94 days than normal magnesium level
group 5.79±6.089 days. The length of ICU stay was longer in hypomagnesaemia group that is
8.88±7.86 days compare with normal magnesium group 7.00±6.863 days (p>0.05). We found
that 43.6 % (17/39) from patients who were discharge home (recovery) have normal phosphate level compare to 33.3% (13/39) hypophosphataemia (p>0.05). We also found for hypophosphataemia group required same duration of ventilator support with mean 7.44±6.66
days with normal phosphate level group 7.47±8.70days. The length of ICU stay is similar in
hypophosphataemia group that was 8.96±6.41 days and normal phosphate group 8.49±8.64 days. The study was able to determine that the hypomagnesaemia during admission are
associated with higher mortality rate and cause more morbidity in term of prolonged ventilatory
support and increase length of ICU stay. However hypophosphataemia did not increase mortality
and morbidity
