ABSTRACT
Nasyid is currently popular among millennials, this proves
that nasyid is very much loved by the wider community. The poetry
contained also contains elements of da‟wah messages that invite
people to do good, obey Allah, amar ma‟ruf nahi munkar, provide
peace of mind, and increase faith. The Kampoeng Nasyid Community
is Kampoeng Nasyid, a community body for fans of nasyid music,
both solo, groups, duos, and nasyid admirers in Lampung. The
presence of Kampoeng Nasyid is an opportunity for the people of
Lampung to get to know and deepen Islamic music so that they can
develop more broadly in conveying da‟wah messages. Kampoeng
nasyid‟s song lyrics are a communication medium to convey the
meaning of da‟wah and the contents of song lyrics to listeners through
a series of words in the form of lyrics combined with music which
eventually becomes a poem or song that is in accordance with Islamic
law. Allahulkaafi is one of the many poems created by Kampoeng
Nasyid with an Indonesian version.
This study uses a descriptive research method with the library
research model, with the VanD Dijk model of discourse analysis
where the target of this research is songs and poetry. The data sources
in this study consisted of documentation and interviews obtained from
social media accounts and interviews with the CEO of Kampoeng
Nasyid. The analysis technique in this study is the Van Dijk model of
discourse analysis, which is carried out by analyzing in detail the
meaning of the song "Allahulkaafi".
The results of the research that the authors found are, Based
on the elaboration of the meaning above here the researcher can draw
the conclusion that this nasyid da'wah media is sufficiently
representative to convey da'wah messages, in which nasyid as a nasyid
da'wah media can be said to be effective, because seen from various
sides through the results of discourse analysis with the detailed lyrics
of the song "Allahulkaafi" proving that nasyid is worthy of being
called a da'wah medium, Kampoeng Nasyid packs it according to the
times but still doesn't degrade self-image. The Allahul Kaafi poem
contains messages to always invite humans to be serious and
istiqomah in improving themselves and their religion and as listeners
we can take ibroh or benefits for everyday life, regarding that we
should not rely on anyone except Allah SWT. Kampoeng Nasyid
v
songs contain da'wah messages which contain the delivery of religion
in terms of faith, morals, and sharia, where the lyrics in the
AllahulKaafi song emphasize more about morality because the lyrics
in the Allahulkaafi song have lyrics that read "Fix yourself and take
care of your heart" which contains about an invitation that influences
one's morals to always be able to improve oneself and is accompanied
by persistence to guard the heart so that it is not lulled again by the
mirage of the world.

An overview of role of retinoids in management of warts: Review article
Background: Human papillomavirus (HPV)-inducing HPV-types can cause a wide range of cutaneous wart morphology and histological patterns that are distinct from one another. Certain forms of warts are more commonly related with various HPVs that cause cutaneous warts. It is essential that treatments for different forms of warts are both safe and painless. As warts can resolve up to two-thirds of the time without treatment, and treatments should not increase morbidity, this is particularly significant. In contrast, a large number of warts do not self-resolve fast and are associated with diminished quality of life, embarrassment, and pain in the skin. In terms of structure and function, retinoids resemble vitamin A in many ways. Both the differentiation and proliferation of keratinocytes and the immune system are hampered by their immunomodulatory effects. Objective: Assessment of role of retinoids in management of warts.Conclusion: Oral retinoids such as isotretinoin and acitretin are safe and reported to be effective therapy for different types of wart
FREQUENCY OF BLOOD GROUPS AMONGA SAMPLE OF PATIENTSWITH RENAL FAILURE AT ROYAL MEDICAL SERVICES
Introduction: Renal failure underlies various etiologies among which are infectious and autoimmune origins which may link directly or indirectly with blood groups. Objectives: To determine the frequency of blood groups among a sample of patients with renal failure at Royal medical services, and to investigate the association of renal function tests with blood groups. Methodology: A retrospective study design was followed to collect data from files of patients with renal failure. Files of renal patients was included if blood groups were written and kidney function tests were provided. A data sheet was made for each patient that included relevant information about renal patients. A total of 197 files were reviewed. Data were entered into excel sheet to make raw data for all patients. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS V20. Data were presented as frequencies and percentages. The relationships between blood groups and renal function tests were investigated using T-independent test. Significance was considered at alpha level < 0.05. Results: the most prevalent blood group among renal failure patients was blood group A (45.7%), blood group O (30.4%), blood group B (17.3%), and blood group AB (6.6%). When biochemical tests including renal function tests were compared between renal failure patients according their blood groups, results showed slight variations, which were not statistically significant (p>0.05), except for potassium level which was observed in its maximal level among patients with blood group A, and its minimal levels were observed among patients with blood group AB (p=0.032). Conclusions: The present study showed that renal failure patients exhibited more frequency with blood groups A and O and agreed with other studies in which blood group AB is the least associated blood group with renal failure. The level of potassium was highest in patients with blood group A and lowest in patients with blood group AB and this was statistically significant (p=0.032)

Clinical phenotypes and constipation severity in Parkinson’s disease: Relation to Prevotella species
Background: The gut microbiome is speculated to play a crucial role in its pathogenesis of Parkinson’s disease as a triggering factor. Recent hypotheses suggested that Prevotella species regulate gut permeability, exert a neuroprotective effect, and interestingly, has been suspected to be deficient in PD patients, and so may play a role in this disease. Aim: This study was designed to compare between PD patients and their healthy controls as regards relative Prevotella abundance, prevalence of Prevotella-dominant Enterotype, and constipation severity. Also, to correlate Prevotella changes with the clinical phenotypes and severity of motor and non-motor symptoms of PD. Methods: Twenty-five PD cases were enrolled in this study and cross-matched to 25 healthy subjects representing the control group. Overall NMS severity was assessed using the Non-Motor Symptoms Scale (NMSS). Quantitative SYBR green Real Time PCR was performed for the identification and quantitation of Prevotella in stool. Results: Prevotella relative abundance was 4-fold decreased in cases when compared to controls with PIGD phenotype showing the lowest abundance, however the difference was not statistically significance. Prevotella-dominant Enterotype was less presented in cases compared to controls, the result was statistically significant. Severe and very severe constipation grades presented 64% of cases group Vs 12% of control group. There was statistically significant positive correlation between total constipation score and UPDRS total score and motor symptoms phenotypes. Conclusion: Relative low Prevotella abundance in PD patients appears to be related to severe phenotypes of the disease; PIGD and mixed phenotypes. Severe constipation was more presented in PD cases which may be considered as a preclinical biomarker for PD
Association mapping unravels the genetics controlling seedling drought stress tolerance in winter wheat
Drought is a major constraint in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) grain yield. The present work aimed to identify quantitative trait nucleotides (QTNs)/ candidate genes influencing drought tolerance-related traits at the seedling stage in 261 accessions of a diverse winter wheat panel. Seeds from three consecutive years were exposed to polyethylene glycol 12% (PEG-6000) and a control treatment (distilled water). The Farm-CPU method was used for the association analysis with 17,093 polymorphic SNPs. PEG treatment reduced shoot length (SL) (-36.3%) and root length (RL) (-11.3%) compared with control treatments, while the coleoptile length (CL) was increased by 11% under drought conditions, suggesting that it might be considered as an indicator of stress-tolerance. Interestingly, we revealed 70 stable QTN across 17 chromosomes. Eight QTNs related to more than one trait were detected on chromosomes 1B, 2A (2), 2B, 2D, 4B, 7A, and 7B and located nearby or inside candidate genes within the linkage disequilibrium (LD) interval. For instance, the QTN on chromosome 2D is located inside the gene TraesCS2D02G133900 that controls the variation of CL_S and SL_C. The allelic variation at the candidate genes showed significant influence on the associated traits, demonstrating their role in controlling the natural variation of multi-traits of drought stress tolerance. The gene expression of these candidate genes under different stress conditions validates their biological role in stress tolerance. Our findings offer insight into understanding the genetic factors and diverse mechanisms in response to water shortage conditions that are important for wheat improvement and adaptation at early developmental stages.Fil: Schierenbeck, Matías.
