Full text linkSarmini Store merupakan toko busana muslim yang berfokus pada
penjualan busana laki-laki dan perempuan dengan tren masa kini. Permasalahan
utama dari Sarmini Store adalah pengolahan data internal seperti data pemesanan
dan pengecekan stok produk serta pencatatan hasil laporan penjualan yang masih
manual, mengakibatkan proses menjadi kurang efisien dan kurang teratur.
Kemudian pemesanan masih menggunakan cara manual dan informasi produk yang
disediakan terbatas. Sehingga proses menjadi sangat lambat dan memberikan
dampak yang semakin lama semakin merugikan bagi toko.
Berdasarkan adanya masalah tersebut, maka diperlukan sistem penjualan
online di Sarmini Store yang dapat memberikan kemudahan dalam meningkatkan
kinerja toko tersebut. Oleh karena itu penulis melakukan pembangunan website
Sarmini Store. Pada sistem Sarmini Store aplikasi dapat mengelola data internal
toko secara online dan memudahkan pemilik dalam melihat laporan penjualan.
Sistem informasi Sarmini Store menggunakan Microsoft Visual Studio sebagai
perangkat lunak dalam proses pengembangan website, dalam proses pembuatan
website menggunakan bahasa pemrograman Php dan HTML.
Berdasar hasil rekapitulasi kuesioner yang disebar, 95% setuju bahwa
website memiliki tampilan yang menarik, 90% setuju bahwa website membantu
konsumen dalam membeli barang, dan 90% merasa puas dengan website Sarmini
Store. Hasil akhir dari pembuatan website dapat membantu pemilik dalam
mengelola data transaksi, pemilik dapat mengetahui jumlah stok barang ada pada
website dan pencatatan hasil laporan penjualan yang akurat
The status of Anas bin Malik’s narrations in Hanafi corpus - An applied analytical study
Full text linkيتجه هذا البحث لمعالجة مسألة أصولية نسبها عيسى بن أبان إلى الحنفية، ألا وهي ردهم حديث الصحابي غير الفقيه إذا خالفت روايته القياس، وقد مثل تلامذته بعده لهؤلاء الصحابة بأبي هريرة وأنس بن مالك وآخرين، فأردت أن أجمع مسند أنس-لا أبا هريرة نظرًا لكثرة ما كتب بحقه- من مدونة الفقه الحنفي الكبرى، ثم أبحث في مَواطن العمل بأحاديثه ومواطن العدول عنها، ثم أُخضع هذه النتائج للتحليل والتأمل، للوصول إلى أسباب هذا الإعمال أو العدول، ومن ثم أصل إلى حكم أغلبي يضم جزئيات المسألة بحيث يمكن لنا أن نحدد مدى دقة وانطباق ما ذكره عيسى بن أبان على عمل الحنفية وتطبيقاتهم في الفروع.
وقد أتت النتائج مرجحةً أن الحنفية اعتبروا فقه الراوي في مسائل معينة خصوصا في ميدان ترجيح رواية الفقيه على الأقل فقها، أما منزلة حديث أنس بن مالك فكانت كغير من الصحابة بلا تمييز بين فقيه وغير فقيه، بل أعملوا قواعدهم الأخرى في مجال الموازنة بين القطعي والظني، وأخذوا بأحاديث أنس في مواطن كثيرة بل ورجحوها في أحيان أخرى على مرويات لصحابة أكثر فقها، بل ورجحوها على القياس كثيرا، وعلى القواعد أحيانا على خلاف بينهم. بما يشير إلى أن قاعدة ابن أبان تحتاج إلى إعادة نظر من جهة كونها توصيفًا لمذهب الحنفية.This research aims to discuss the usul principle of disregarding the narration of the non-jurist companion when it contradicts the qiyas (analogical reasoning) that Isa ibn Abban attributed to the Hanafi school of law. Many of his students mentioned Abu Hurayrah, Anas bin Malik, and others as examples when discussing this principle. This research will analyse this issue by collecting the narrations of Anas from the books of Hanafi jurisprudence and will investigate both the incidents in which the Hanafis utilized these narrations and the incidents in which they disregarded them. I will then subject my findings to various forms of analysis in order to understand the reasons for the rejections of such narrations. All of this will be used to reach a grneral conclusoion that evaluates the statement of Isa ibn Abban regarding Hanafi usul and their application within their jurisprudence. This research concludes that the Hanafis did, in fact, give consideration to the narrator’s knowledge of jurisprudence in certain matters, especially when preferring the narrations of a jurist narrator to a non jurist narrator. However, the status of the narrations of Anas bin Malik, in particular, was considered the same as those of the other companions. Rather, the Hanafis referred back to their other principles of distinguishing between the decisive and non-decisive texts, accepted the narrations of Anas in many places, and sometimes even favoured them over traditions narrated by companions better known for their knowledge of jurisprudence, over qiyas (analogous reasoning), and over other principles. This conclusion indicates that the argument put forth by Isa ibn Abban describing this Hanafi usul principle is in need of further consideration
Elucidating the roles of t-helper and t-regulatory cells in sarcoma patients / Sarmini Munisamy
Full text linkTumour cells can create microenvironments that suppress effective anti-tumour
activity and interact with host defence mechanisms to support tumour development. The
immune system is known to inhibit tumour growth. However, some immune cells could
promote tumour growth; i.e. T-regulatory (Treg) cells which play a vital role in tumour
promotion and progression. Sarcomas are heterogeneous tumours of connective tissues
which depend on angiogenesis for growth and metastasis, with slow progression and local
aggressiveness. Those younger than 20-years old are more susceptible to sarcoma, which
accounts for 1% of adult cancers; 11% of young adult cancers and 15% of childhood
cancers. 50% of sarcoma patients succumb to metastasis during disease progression. This
study aims to elucidate the mechanism(s) of sarcomas’ modulation of the host immune
system by studying the T – helper cells (Th), Treg cells, and associated cytokines.
Peripheral blood leucocytes (PBL) from sarcoma patients were used for flow cytometry
analysis, gene expression studies, and analysis of cytokines. Flow cytometry analysis
showed a reduction in the total population of CD4+ T-lymphocytes and Treg
(CD4+CD25+FoxP3+
) in sarcoma patients compared to healthy volunteers, but only the
former was statistically significant (p < 0.05). PBL from sarcoma and healthy volunteers
were cultured in the presence of mitogen for cytokine analysis as plasma levels of
cytokines were almost undetectable. Tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNFα), interferongamma (IFNγ) (p < 0.05), interleukin-17A (IL-17A) were markedly decreased in sarcoma
patients’ PBL compared to healthy volunteers. LAP-transforming growth factor-beta1
(LAP-TGF-β1) was significantly reduced (p < 0.05) in sarcoma patients compared to
healthy volunteers despite giving higher yield. The quantitative polymerase chain
reaction (qPCR) array used was annotated with primers for 84 genes involved in the
iv
differentiation of CD4+ T-lymphocytes. qPCR analysis showed differential expression
(p < 0.05) of five important genes involved in T-cell differentiation, namely homeobox
A10 (HOXA10), C-C chemokine receptor type 3 (CCR3), GATA3, prostaglandin D2
receptor (PTDGR2) and thymocyte selection-associated high mobility group box (TOX)
genes. HOXA10 expression was significantly (p < 0.05) upregulated in sarcoma patients
whilst expressions of CCR3, GATA3, PTDGR2 and TOX were distinctly reduced (p <
0.05). Expression of these genes with two others [T-cell-specific T-box transcription
factor T-Bet (TBX21) and tumour necrosis factor superfamily member 11 (TNFSF11)]
were validated using real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and it showed upregulation (p > 0.05) of HOXA10 and TBX21 expression in sarcoma patients. Meanwhile,
GATA3 and TNFSF1 expression were down-regulated in sarcoma patients. In conclusion,
Th cells and its associated cytokines were reduced in sarcoma patients compared to
healthy volunteers. This finding suggests possible suppression of the host immune
system in sarcoma patients, contributing to ineffective anti-tumour immune responses.
This hypothesis is further supported by the imbalance between the numbers of Th and
Treg cells (p > 0.05) in sarcoma patients in this study. Expression of some genes
responsible for the development and differentiation of CD4+ T-cells were also
differentially expressed in sarcomas. Further studies are essential to conclude if the
regulation of these genes in immune cells has any significant impact on survival and
progression of sarcomas
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Full text link“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
