    This paper aims to show that through the development of good communication will give birth to a good relationship, as well as in creating family resilience in young married couples. The method used in this paper is descriptive analytical. While this research by looking for data in the form of interviews with young married couples. As a result, several concepts are offered to create family resilience, namely mutual openness, mutual understanding, and mutual care, as well as aspects of trust, commitment, and sympathy and empathy. Communication is an important element that must exist in a relationship, including in married life. Weak communication in the family will cause divisions, disputes, and conflicts that can lead to divorce. Communication that is built well between family members will create a harmonious family, so as to avoid disputes and fights. Keywords: communication, family, family resilience, young marriage

    Fed-EE: Federating Heterogeneous ASR Models using Early-Exit Architectures

    Automatic speech recognition models require large speech recordings for training. However, the collection of such data often is cumbersome and leads to privacy concerns. Federated learning has been widely used as an effective decentralized technique that collaboratively learns a shared model while keeping the data local on clients devices. Unfortunately, client devices often feature limited computation and communication resources leading to practical difficulties for large models. In addition, the heterogeneity that characterizes edge devices make unpractical federating a single model that fits all the different clients. Differently from the recent literature, where multiple different architectures are used, in this work we 10 propose using early-exiting. This brings 2 benefits: a single model is used on a variety of devices; federating the models is straightforward. Experiments on the public dataset TED-LIUM 3 show that our proposed approach is effective and can be combined with basic federated learning strategies. We also shed light on how to federate self-attention models for speech recognition, for which an established recipe does not exist in literature

    In a trial to solve one of the most important problems faced the production of Gladiolus plant in Egypt, i. e. the deterioration of corms production year after year. Therefore, they are annually imported from Netherlands. But in view of the rising prices of corms in recent years, studying the factors that may help to produce the corms locally is very necessary. So, the experimental trial was performed during two successive seasons (2011/2012 and 2012/2013) at the nursery of Horticulture Research Institute, Giza, Egypt. It intended to investigate the independent as well as the combined effects of different growing media (sand, sand/compost (1:1 v/v); sand/sewage sludge (3:1 v/v) and organic fertilization (actosol) and biostimulants (garlic and yeast extracts) on the production of Gladiolus corms from cormlets (cv. Novalux) locally. The results indicated that sand/compost (1:1 v/v) medium proved its mastery for increasing corms yield (No. of corms/experimental unit), corm fresh and dry weights, corm circumference, root length of the new formed corms, cormlets yield and cormlet fresh and dry weights. Using sand medium in plantation occupied the second rank in improving such parameters in both seasons. Meanwhile, slight effects were obtained on the same parameters due to using sand/sewage sludge medium in plantation. Chemical constituents of the new formed corms indicated also the prevalence of using sand/compost medium in raising N, P, K and total carbohydrates %. Actosol treatment proved its superiority in increasing both corms yield and quality in both seasons. Meanwhile, applying garlic extract occupied the second rank in improving the same traits with significant effect comparing with control in most cases. However, using yeast extract slightly improved these parameters and achieved the third position. Results, also showed the prevalence of treating plants with actosol for increasing cormlets yield (No. of cormlets/experimental unit) whereas, garlic extract achieved the second position for elevating the same parameter. Meanwhile, yeast application recorded the least effect in improving such trait. In the same time, either organic fertilization (actosol) or biostimulants (garlic and yeast) slightly improved cormletfresh and dry weights, with insignificant effect in most cases. Also, the previous treatments showed slight increments on N, P, K and total carbohydrates % in new formed corms, where actosol was the best in this respect.Form the aforementioned results and interactions it could be recommended to grow Gladiolus (cv. Novalux) cormlets in sand/compost (1:1 v/v) medium and treating plants with organic fertilization (actosol) for producing the best corms and cormlets yield and quality

    The experimental trial was consummated during two successive seasons (2011/ 2012 and 2012/ 2013) at the nursery of Hort. Res. Inst., Giza, Egypt. It was intended to find out the solve of one of the most important problems faced the production of Gladiolus in Egypt, i.e. the deterioration of corms production year after year. So, the independent as well as the combined effects of different growing media (sand, sand/compost 1:1 v/v and sand/sewage sludge 3:1 v/v),fertilization treatments (NPK at 1:2:1, kristalon and EM 5%) and their interaction were investigated on the production of Gladiolus corms from cormlets locally. The results indicated that growing cormlets in sand/compost (1:1 v/v) medium proved its mastery in raising corms yield, corm fresh and dry weights, corm circumference and root length of corm as well as cormlets yield and quality in both seasons. Meanwhile, using sand medium in plantation achieved the secondrank in improving the same parameters in the same seasons. Results indicated also the prevalence of all corms and cormlets parameters due to applying the mixture of N, P and K, whereas kristalon and EM 5% showed less effect in this regard. Chemical constituents of the new formed corms were also affected by the previous treatments, wheregrowing cormlets in sand/compost medium showed its superiority in raising N, P and K as well as total carbohydrates content in the new corms. Also, NPK fertilization revealed an increment on the same parameters in the same organ.From the aforementioned results and interactions, it could be recommended to grow Gladiolus (cv. Novalux) cormlets insand/compost medium along with treating the plants with NPK mixture at a ratio of 1: 2: 1 at the rate of 2 g/pot, 8 times at 15 day intervals to obtain high yield and quality of the new formed corms

    Pernikahan merupakan akad yang kuat (misaqan galizan) sebagai wujud ketaatan hamba pada perintah Tuhannya. Pernikahan bernilai ibadah jika dilaksanakan sesuai dengan ketentuan yang berlaku dan tujuan pernikahan (sakinah, mawadah, dan rahmah) dapat tercapai dengan baik. Sesuai dengan ketentuan yang telah ditetapkan di UU No. 16 Tahun 2019 amandemen atas UU No. 1 Tahun 1974, usia minimal menikah bagi laki-laki dan perempuan 19 tahun. Pada kasus yang terjadi banyak penyimpangan terhadap ketentuan tersebut hingga muncul istilah pernikahan dini. Pernikahan dini menjadi permasalahan umum di Indonesia, termasuk di Kapanewon Bantul Kabupaten Bantul Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta. Pada tahun 2016-2019 terjadi kenaikan dan penurunan kasus pernikahan dini. Tahun 2020 terdapat 13 kasus dan terus naik pada tahun 2021 menjadi 16 kasus. Banyaknya penyimpangan tersebut menjadi perhatian khusus sehingga perlu diwujudkan pencegahan pernikahan dini khususnya oleh lembaga yang berwenang, yaitu KUA Kapanewon Bantul. Penelitian ini mengkaji pencegahan pernikahan dini yang dilakukan oleh KUA Kapanewon Bantul sebagai wujud kepeduliannya kepada masyarakat. Jenis penelitian yang digunakan adalah penelitian lapangan (field research), yaitu pengumpulan data melalui observasi dan interviu dengan KUA Kapanewon Bantul. Adapun sifat penelitian ini adalah deskriptif analisis yang menggunakan pendekatan empiris normatif. Sumber data diperoleh dari hasil wawancara dengan KUA Kapanewon Bantul yang didukung dengan referensi kepustakaan yang terkait dengan pembahasan. Penyusun menggunakan teori efektivitas hukum untuk mengetahui tingkat efektivitas pencegahan pernikahan dini dan teori maslahah sebagai pendukung tingkat kemaslahatan yang diwujudkan oleh adanya pencegahan pernikahan dini. Hasil penyusunan penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa kasus pernikahan dini di Kapanewon Bantul disebabkan beberapa faktor, yaitu lemahnya pendidikan dan pengetahuan, penggunaan media sosial yang tidak dibatasi, dan pergaulan bebas hingga terjadi kehamilan di luar nikah. Tingkat efektivitas pencegahan pernikahan dini yang dilakukan oleh KUA Kapanewon Bantul menunjukkan belum memenuhi semua indikator efektivitas. Faktor hukum, penegak hukum, dan sarana telah menunjukkan keefektifannya atas upaya sosialisasi pencegahan pernikahan dini oleh KUA, sedangkan faktor hukum, masyarakat, dan kebudayaan menunjukkan sebaliknya. Adapun lingkup kemaslahatan yang diwujudkan oleh upaya sosialisasi pencegahan pernikahan dini yaitu untuk mencegah dampak yang ditimbulkan oleh pernikahan dini sendiri. Sosialisasi undang-undang perkawinan dan bahaya pernikahan dini menunjukkan pada tingkat maslahah daruriyah, sebab tidak adanya upaya tersebut akan berpotensi merusak pemenuhan terhadap hifz ad-din, hifz annafs, hifz al-‘aql , hifz an-nasl, dan hifz al-mal. Sedangkan sosialisasi melalui media sosial sebagai peran pendukung atas pemenuhan terhadap hifz al-‘aql, sehingga termasuk tingkat maslahah hajiyah

    The experimental trial was consummated under saran house of 65% shading performed at the nursery of Horticulture Research Institute, Giza, Egypt during two successive seasons (2012/2013 and 2013/2014) with the aim of improving plant quality at the early growth stages of Artocarpus heterophyllus Lam. by studying the effect of treating plants with some natural botanical extracts (Moringa oleifera Lam., Thymus vulgaris L. and Majorana hortensis Moench) with different levels (0, 5 and 10%) besides, the combinations of moringa + marjoram, moringa + thyme and marjoram + thyme extracts at 2.5%. All of them were applied as a foliar spray commencing from November 20th in both seasons on transplants of Artocarpus hetrophyllus Lam. 14-15 cm height with 4-5 leaves till June 20th of the following year at 15 days interval. The plants were grown in sand + peatmoss mixture (1:1, v/v). The results emphasized that most plants which received the highest natural extract level (10%) died after about 6 times of spraying. So, the corresponding data of such treatments were excluded. Meanwhile, using either moringa extract at 5% or the combination of marjoram + thyme extracts at 2.5% proved their mastery in improving plant chemical constituents at the terminate of experiment (July,5th) as that treating plants with moringa extract at 5% followed by that of the combination of marjoram + thyme extracts at 2.5% were the best treatments used for improving all the components which were measured in this respect (chlorophyll a, b and carotenoids, total carbohydrates, N, P, K and protein in leaves). From the aforementioned results, it could be recommended to use either moringa extract at 5% or the combination of marjoram + thyme extras at 2.5% for improving chemical constituents of Artocarpus heterophyllus Lam. at the early growth stages of such plants besides, getting better plants without being forced to use chemical nutrients or synthetic growth regulators that may contaminate the environment with getting a safe clean product

    A field experiment was consummated at the nursery of Horticulture Research Institute, ARC, Giza, Egypt, throughout two successive seasons (2012/2013 and 2013/2014). It was intended to improve vegetative growth and root parameters of Artocarpus heterophyllus Lam. at the early growth stages by studying the effect of treating the plants with different natural extracts botanicals (Moringa oleifera, Lam., Thymus vulgaris, L. and Majorana hortensis, Moench) at the levels of 0, 5 and 10%, besides the combination of moringa + marjoram, moringa + thyme and marjoram + thyme extracts at 2.5%. All of them were applied as a foliar spray commencing from November 20th in both seasons on transplants of 14-15 cm. height with 4-5 leaves till June 20th of the next year at 15 days interval. The plants were grown in sand + peatmoss mixture (1:1, v/v) under the condition of saran house of 65% shading. The results could be briefed as follows: Most plants which received the highest natural extract level (10%) died after about six times of the beginning of spraying. So, the corresponding data of such treatments were excluded. The prevalence of supplying plants with moringa extract at 5% for improving vegetative growth and root parameters of  Artocarpus heterophyllus Lam. plant at the terminate of experiment (July 15th)  as it increased leaf area, fresh and dry weights of either leaves or roots/plant. Also, it raised root length, root diameter, number of the secondary roots/ plant, length of the longest secondary root. Meanwhile, using the combination of marjoram + thyme extracts at 2.5% belonged to the first and second degree for improving the above mentioned traits in most cases. In contrast, the least scores were a result of untreated plants (control) and plants which received only thyme extract at 5%. From the aforementioned results, it could be recommended to apply either moringa extract at 5% or the combination of marjoram + thyme extracts at 2.5% on Artocarpus heterophyllus Lam. transplants for improving vegetative growth and root parameters of such economic important plant, besides, getting better plants without being forced to use chemical nutrients or synthetic growth regulators that may pollute the environment with getting a safe clean product

    The present experiment was performed on Hymenocallis speciosa Salisb. plant throughout two successive seasons (2011/2012 and 2012/2013) at the nursery of Horticulture Research Institute, ARC, Giza, Egypt. The aim was to quantify the water requirements of Hymenocallis speciosa Salisb. plants grown in different growing media, i.e. clay, sand/clay, sand/compost (2:1, v/v) and sand/sewage sludge (4:1, v/v) with supplying the plants with different irrigation levels (low, moderate and high) according to field capacity of each growing medium used in every irrigation to asses the most suitable irrigation level for producing the best vigorous plant growth as well as for reducing the amount of water used in agricultural production and determine the best growing media used for producing plants with high yield and quality. Accordingly, bulbs of an average weight of 46 g and 10 cm diameter were selected and planted on March 12th in plastic pots of 30 cm diameter under open field conditions in both seasons. The results emphasized that sand/compost (2:1, v/v) was the best medium used for improving vegetative growth and root parameters as well as most flower traits, bulbs productivity and chemical constituents of plant leaves and bulbs. Besides, it proved its mastery in shortening the time required from planting to flowering. Meanwhile, sand/clay (2:1, v/v) and sand/sewage sludge (4:1, v/v) were less efficient in improving plant traits and occupied the second and third ranks, respectively. In contrast, clay medium gave the least efficiency in this concern comparing with the other media used in the two seasons. Also, great influence was noticed on the above mentioned traits due to supplying plants either moderate or high level in every irrigation. Meanwhile, the lowest irrigation regime gave an intermediate effects on the same traits.Therefore, and from the interaction it could be recommended to use sand/compost (2:1, v/v) medium in plantation with supplying plants the moderate irrigation level in every irrigation for achieving high plant quality of Hymenocallis speciosa Salisb. plant, besides save a good deal of water for other purposes

    Despite effective chemotherapy, schistosomiasis remains the second largest public health problem in the developing world. Currently, vaccination is the new strategy for schistosomiasis control. The presence of common antigenic fractions between Schistosoma mansoni and its intermediate host provides a source for the preparation of a proper vaccine. The objective of this paper is to evaluate the nucleoprotein extracted from either susceptible or resistant snails to protect against schistosomiasis. The vaccination schedule consisted of a subcutaneous injection of 50 µg protein of each antigen followed by another inoculation 15 days later. Analyses of marker enzymes for different cell organelles [succinate dehydrogenase, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), glucose-6-phosphatase, acid phosphatase and 5'-nucleotidase] were carried out. Energetic parameters (ATP, ADP, AMP, phosphate potentials, inorganic phosphate, amino acids and LDH isoenzymes) were also investigated. The work was extended to record worm and ova counts, oogram determination in the liver and intestine and the histopathological pattern of the liver. The nucleoprotein of susceptible snails showed reduction in worm and ova counts by 70.96% and 51.31%, respectively, whereas the nucleoprotein of resistant snails showed reductions of 9.67% and 16.77%, respectively. In conclusion, we found that the nucleoprotein of susceptible snails was more effective in protecting against schistosomiasis

    Abstract Background Acute pancreatitis is a common, yet complex, emergency surgical presentation. Multiple guidelines exist and management can vary significantly. The aim of this first UK, multicentre, prospective cohort study was to assess the variation in management of acute pancreatitis to guide resource planning and optimize treatment. Methods All patients aged greater than or equal to 18 years presenting with acute pancreatitis, as per the Atlanta criteria, from March to April 2021 were eligible for inclusion and followed up for 30 days. Anonymized data were uploaded to a secure electronic database in line with local governance approvals. Results A total of 113 hospitals contributed data on 2580 patients, with an equal sex distribution and a mean age of 57 years. The aetiology was gallstones in 50.6 per cent, with idiopathic the next most common (22.4 per cent). In addition to the 7.6 per cent with a diagnosis of chronic pancreatitis, 20.1 per cent of patients had a previous episode of acute pancreatitis. One in 20 patients were classed as having severe pancreatitis, as per the Atlanta criteria. The overall mortality rate was 2.3 per cent at 30 days, but rose to one in three in the severe group. Predictors of death included male sex, increased age, and frailty; previous acute pancreatitis and gallstones as aetiologies were protective. Smoking status and body mass index did not affect death. Conclusion Most patients presenting with acute pancreatitis have a mild, self-limiting disease. Rates of patients with idiopathic pancreatitis are high. Recurrent attacks of pancreatitis are common, but are likely to have reduced risk of death on subsequent admissions. </jats:sec
