This article examines the possibility of reconstructing Islamic epistemology through the integration of classical Ilm al-Usūl principles with modern epistemic challenges. The revivalist/textualist, reformist/maqāṣidī, and critical-hermeneutic approaches to Islamic epistemology are discussed, each contributing a unique perspective on the reconciliation of traditional Islamic knowledge with modern intellectual developments. The main objective is to analyze how Ilm al-Usūl can maintain its normative foundations while responding to contemporary issues such as misinformation, the growing complexity of scientific knowledge, and the fragmentation of epistemic authority. By examining maqāṣid al-sharīʿa, ḥujjiyyah, and other core concepts within Ilm al-Usūl, the article proposes a conceptual bridge that balances revelation with empirical data, fostering a more adaptive epistemological framework. The research design follows a conceptual-analytical library approach, utilizing both classical Islamic legal texts and modern epistemological literature, including social epistemology and theories of knowledge justification. The results reveal that the reconstruction model offers a more comprehensive solution compared to traditional approaches, addressing modern epistemic challenges without abandoning foundational Islamic principles. The discussion highlights the importance of modernizing the methodology to include empirical tools like data literacy and ethical considerations, while maintaining the normative integrity of Islamic knowledge. The article concludes by presenting practical implications for Islamic education and religious authority, recommending the integration of scientific literacy and modern epistemic practices into Ilm al-Usūl curricula. It also suggests future research on specific case studies and the development of modern indicators of epistemic authority.

This article constructs a Christian pastoral counseling framework for congregants who experience trauma caused by social rejection. Social rejection within family, peer, workplace, or church communities may wound identity, belonging, agency, and spiritual meaning; however, pastoral responses often remain either overly moralistic or merely consolatory. The objective of this study is to formulate a trauma-informed and theologically accountable model of pastoral counseling that can be used by local church ministers without replacing professional mental health care. This study uses a qualitative constructive literature review by synthesizing recent studies on trauma-informed care, social exclusion, religious coping, chaplaincy, and pastoral theology published before 2024. The analysis identifies five core findings: trauma from social rejection is primarily relational; pastoral care must begin with safety, consent, and validation; theological interpretation should resist victim-blaming; congregational belonging is part of recovery; and referral ethics are necessary when symptoms exceed pastoral competence. The proposed model integrates safe presence, narrative listening, theological reconstruction, communal restoration, and clinical referral. The implication is that churches need a pastoral counseling culture that protects wounded congregants from retraumatization while sustaining spiritual hope, relational repair, and responsible interdisciplinary collaboration.

Toxic leadership in church contexts is not merely an organizational problem; it can become a psychospiritual wound when pastoral authority is used to shame, silence, manipulate, or control congregants in the name of God. This article examines pastoral counseling for congregants who experience inner wounds caused by toxic leadership in the church. The study addresses a gap in previous research: leadership studies have clarified the concepts of abusive supervision and destructive leadership. In contrast, religious trauma research has described spiritual abuse, yet fewer works have developed a constructive pastoral counseling synthesis that integrates both fields. Using a conceptual and integrative literature review design, this article draws on peer-reviewed studies on toxic leadership, spiritual abuse, institutional betrayal, moral injury, trauma-informed care, and spiritually integrated psychotherapy. The synthesis proposes that pastoral counseling in this context must be trauma-informed, spiritually competent, ecclesially accountable, and clinically humble. Three findings are advanced: toxic church leadership wounds identity, agency, and God-image; pastoral counseling must begin with safety, validation, narrative reconstruction, and protection of conscience; and recovery requires individual care and institutional repair through accountability, referral pathways, and anti-retaliatory church culture. The article concludes that pastoral counseling is most constructive when it becomes a ministry of truth-telling, non-coercive accompaniment, and communal restoration rather than a tool for preserving abusive systems.

Environmental crimes committed by corporations cause broad ecological, social, and economic impacts on society and environmental sustainability. However, the system of corporate criminal liability in Indonesia still tends to rely on a retributive approach through fines and imprisonment of corporate managers. This approach is considered ineffective because it has not been able to restore environmental damage and fulfill the rights of affected communities. This study aims to analyze the weaknesses of corporate criminal liability in environmental crimes and reconstruct a restorative justice-based model of criminal responsibility. This research employs normative legal research using statutory and conceptual approaches. The results indicate that the reconstruction of corporate criminal liability should focus on environmental restoration through ecological rehabilitation mechanisms, compensation for affected communities, ecological penal mediation, and independent environmental audits. The restorative justice approach provides opportunities for corporations to take concrete responsibility for the environmental damage they cause so that environmental law enforcement is not merely punishment-oriented, but also aimed at environmental recovery and social justice.

Background: The ACL is a ligament in the knee joint which functions to stabilize the tibia when moving forward and in rotational movements of the knee joint. Treatment for Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) injuries can be done with several procedures, namely reconstructive and conservative. ACL reconstruction is a surgical procedure that replaces the injured ACL with a tendon graft because the ACL does not heal after injury due to insufficient vascularization. Common conditions after undergoing ACL reconstruction surgery are complication problems such as experiencing knee stiffness which includes swelling, pain, limited Range of Motion (ROM), especially in extension, decreased muscle strength and decreased proprioception. Objective : To determine the effectiveness of providing exercise in handling post-operative cases of phase 1 ACL surgery. Method: This study used the Case Report method which was carried out at RSD KRMT Wongsonegoro, Semarang in January 2024. The patient was a 20 year old male, diagnosed with Post Op. ALCR phase 1. Results & Discussion: After being given physiotherapy intervention for 3 meetings. With each therapy, it appears that there continues to be improvement. Can increase joint range of motion, increase knee flexor muscle strength, reduce perceived pain, and change segment circumference. Results: Based on the research that has been carried out, the results showed that providing physiotherapy intervention can be effective in phase 1 ACLR cases.

This conceptual research article develops an eschatological-hope-based pastoral counseling model for congregants experiencing bereavement. Bereavement is not only an affective response to death but also a disruption of meaning, embodied routines, social belonging, and theological imagination. Contemporary grief research has clarified the distinction between normative grief, prolonged grief disorder, complicated spiritual grief, and the heterogeneous trajectories through which bereaved persons adapt. However, pastoral responses in local churches often remain fragmented, oscillating between sympathetic presence, doctrinal explanation, ritual care, and informal advice without an integrated model that is clinically cautious and theologically constructive. This study employs a qualitative constructive literature review, synthesizing bereavement psychology, meaning reconstruction theory, spiritual care research, and Christian eschatological theology. The article proposes the PASTOR model: Presence, Assessment, Story, Scripture, Theological lament, Ongoing communal practice, and referral and review. The main synthesis argues that eschatological hope should not be used to bypass grief but to hold lament, embodied absence, continuing bonds, and future-oriented resurrection hope within a disciplined pastoral process. The model contributes a practical framework for churches seeking to accompany mourners without medicalizing ordinary grief, minimizing suffering, or ignoring cases that require professional mental health referral.

Christian Generation Z is negotiating adulthood within an unusually dense field of uncertainty: unstable work transitions, digital comparison, climate concern, post-pandemic disruption, and shifting religious participation. These conditions intensify future anxiety, understood here as anticipatory apprehension toward an unfavorable personal future. This article aims to construct a pastoral counseling model for Christian Gen Z who experience future anxiety without reducing their distress either to a clinical disorder alone or to insufficient faith. Because no field data were collected, the study uses a constructive conceptual design grounded in an integrative literature review, practical theological reasoning, and a critical synthesis of psychological, pastoral, and youth mental health scholarship published before 2024. The analysis identifies three main findings. First, future anxiety among Christian Gen Z is best interpreted as a narrative disruption of agency, meaning, belonging, and hope. Second, pastoral counseling requires an integrative stance that combines spiritual competence, evidence-informed anxiety care, digital awareness, and ecclesial accompaniment. Third, the article proposes the SELAH model: Situational-spiritual assessment, Empathic presence, Lament and meaning reconstruction, Adaptive agency planning, and Hope-building ecclesial accompaniment. The model offers a non-reductive framework for churches, counselors, and Christian educators while emphasizing referral, ethical boundaries, and further empirical testing.

The fast development of information technology, especially in handheld communication devices (smartphones) is undeniable that it is difficult to avoid massively by the public. Its existence will be a tool of personal reconstruction in society. Not only as a means of communication, but far beyond the basic functions of smartphones. The important role of technology is what brings human civilisation into the digital era. The digital era has brought various good changes as a positive impact that can be used as well as possible. Through a smartphone, users can show their activities and build their social identity, both in the real and virtual world. Deviant sexual orientation makes it difficult for gays to interact and communicate like a dominant society, it makes gays need an alternative media in order to interact and communicate with the aim of meeting their social and sexual needs. The result of this discussion is that in the digital era it is no longer a taboo for most teenagers to find out information about the whereabouts of gay men. Gay youth communication on social media is divided into two types, namely verbal and non-verbal. The existence of verbal and non-verbal communication in social media can support the realisation of meetings in real life.

Trauma is emotional and psychological stress in general due to unpleasant events or experiences related to violence. The word trauma can also be used to refer to events that cause excessive stress. An event can be called traumatic if the event causes extreme stress and exceeds the individual's ability to cope. The results of research related to variations in reconstruction increments in trauma cases show that the optimal increment reconstruction value on CT scan trauma head  case trauma value  increment reconstruction 2,5mm. Type study is quantitative with an experimental approach to analysis Quality information Citra Ct-Scan head with variations iincrement case trauma, with variations of 0,7mm, 0,9mm. Data collection was carried out in August-September 2023 at Balimed Regional Hospital. The author took examination dataas many as 10 patients. Research results from uji normality test on an clinical CT scan of the head in trauma cases use variations increments reconstruction  0,7mm, 0,9mm, can be seen that the mean increment value  0,7 mm produces a mean of 38,56 in the Ventricle-GM area, 15, 13 in the WM-GM area. And the mean increment value  0,9mm produces a mean of 19,88 in the ventricle-GM area, 7,1 in the WM-GM area. From the normality test on CT scan of the head in trauma cases using increment variations reconstruction  0,7mm, 0,9mm, it illustrates the image quality of the 2 increment variations, namely the increment variation value of 0,7 mm has the highest CNR value, namely a mean of 38, 56 in the ventricular-GM area, in the WM-GM area it was 15,13. Meanwhile, the increment variation value 0,9 mm produces 19.88 in the ventricular-GM area, in the WM-GM area 7,1. So this shows that an increment variation 0,7mm is the most optimal increment variation in improving the image quality of a CT scan of the head in trauma cases

The curriculum is an important part of the education system because it is one of the determining factors in achiefing goals. Likewise, the Islamic religious education (PAI) curriculum also plays a central role in various curricula to achieve the direction and goals of Islamic education itself. Islamic education aims to develop all human potential based on Islamic law. However, in reality, the PAI curriculum still has problems in real life. For example, the education model is still docmatic, old-fashioned, redundant, and the religius concept taught are no longer relevant to modern life. Teachers and all scool staff mus be able to trully understand and design the curriculum. In developing an Islamic religious education (IRE) curriculum, a special approach is anneded that ensures that the designed curriculum can bring students to the desiret changes. Teachers can choose several approaches that suit their teatching model, taking into account the specifics of Islamic education itself. Four approaches can be used in curriculum development: academic, humanistic, technological and social reconstruction approaches. The developed curriculum can then be used by various PAI teachers in the teaching and learning process at school.

Non-hemorrhagic stroke or commonly called ischemic stroke is a functional disorder of the body area due to decreased brain function caused by blockage of cerebral blood vessel flow. One of the modalities in radiology that can diagnose non-hemorrhagic stroke cases is computer tomography (CT). To get good image quality, one of them is by doing increment reconstruction. Increment reconstruction is the distance between reconstruction images in volume data. Increment reconstruction is grouped into three, namely increment overlapping, increment contiguous and increment gap. The type of research used is quantitative research with an experimental approach. The sample of this study used 10 patients who underwent CT scan examination of the head with non-hemorrhagic stroke cases in June-August 2023 in the Radiology Unit of RSAD TK II UDAYANA DENPASAR BALI. The findings of this study indicate that when using different increment reconstruction techniques, anatomical image information will vary. The results of the total Friedman test which shows a p value of 0.000 (<0.05) provide evidence of this. A p value of 0.000 was found (p value <0.05) based on differences in overall anatomical image information, indicating that there is a difference between non-hemorrhagic stroke cases and head CT scans. Of the four variations of increment reconstruction, variation 3 with a reconstruction increment of 2.5 mm has the largest mean rank value (3.23) so it is the most ideal anatomical image information.

The urographic ct scan is a diagnostic procedure which aims comprehensively evaluate kidney, ureter, and bladder, as well as the general function of the urinary tracts.   One of common pathologies detected on urographic examination is kidney cyst. The kidney cyst is a spherical or oval-shaped sac which contains a fluid form inside the kidney. This case study aims to explain the Urographic CT scan procedures with contrast media. This study assess the strengths and weakness of CT Urographic examinations with patients with kidney cysts. The study shows that CT Urographic exmination procedure involves informed consent, patient and equipment preparation, patient positioning, image acquisition and reconstruction. The study also shows that there was a difference in scanning phase on theory and clinical practices. While the theory  states that the the Urographic CT examinations must be conducted with with four phases including non-contractional phases, cortikomedular phases, nefrographic and excretion phases, in clinical practices, the scanning was acquired with non-contrast phase, kidney phase, ureter phase and bladder phase.  

Background: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a cross-sectional imaging technique based on the principle of magnetic resonance of hydrogen atoms due to radio frequency (RF) signals with the same frequency as the precession frequency (lamor frequency). MRI at the beginning of its development used a semiconductor magnetic field with a power of 0.5-1.5 Tesla, but now MRI uses a superconductor magnetic field with a power of 1.5-3 Tesla. One of the advantages of brain MRI in epilepsy cases is that it can display clear information about the anatomy and pathology of the head in general in the temporal lobe area. The use of 3D sequences with isotropic voxels such as SPACE (Sampling Perfection With Application Optimized Contrasts With Varying Flip Angle Evolution) is very useful for generating images with high resolution, thinner cuts, and multi-level reconstruction can be performed in several fragments that allow the acquisition of 3D sequences at one time. Methods: The type used is descriptive qualitative research with a case study approach by conducting interviews with 2 radiology specialists, 1 neurology specialist and 3 radiographers related to MRI brain examinations with clinical epilepsy in August-September 2023 in the Radiology Unit of Prof. Dr. I. G. Ngoerah Denpasar Hospital. G. N. G. Ngoerah Denpasar. Results and Conclusion: This study used five (5) patient data who had clinical epilepsy. Based on the results of observations, interviews and documentation in the radiology unit of Prof. Dr. I.G.N.G. Ngoerah Denpasar Hospital, it can be seen that the procedure for examining MRI Brain with clinical epilepsy is that there is no special preparation, only filling out inform consent. The patient is positioned supine on the examination table with a head fixation device with a head first body position and hands beside the body. Radiographers put the patient into the gantry by setting the isocenter i n the middle of the glabella. After positioning the patient the radiographer sets the parameters using axial T2 Turbo Spin Echo (TSE), sagittal T2 Turbo Spin Echo (TSE), coronal T2 Turbo Spin Echo (TSE), axial T2 Turbo Spin Echo (TSE) dark fluit, axial T1 Turbo Spin Echo (TSE) axial Diffusion Weighted Imaging (DWI) and Susceptibility Weighted Imaging (SWI) and coronal T1 SPACE IR isotropic sequences.In addition, the role of coronal slice T1 SPACE sequences is to clearly see the presence of partical dystrophy, to see the thickening or irregularity of the cortex cerebri clearly. In addition, it is also to see the calcification of the temporal lobe and to measure the volume of the hippocampus.

The problem of Indonesian learning at higher education institutes has been encountered by Indonesian language instructors. The lack of animosity of students to learn Indonesian language and lack of variation in learning methods are one of the main problems occurred. These may cause the Indonesian language learning not to meet the expectation of instructors and students. Indonesian language course has an important goal to improve the students’ language skills and to develop a deep affection for the Indonesian language. One of the methods that may be used in order to handle this problem is needs analysis. This method is expected to accommodate students’ needs pertaining to Indonesian language learning in several study programs at De La Salle Catholic University. The findings of this research will be a reference for the syllabus reconstruction process of Indonesian Language course in order to improve the quality of language learning and to achieve the goals of learning. This syllabus reconstruction consists of several components, namely learning objectives, materials, learning method, and assessment. Pertaining to the components, the results of this research showed that (1) the learning objectives of Indonesian Language course in university cannot be limited to writing skills developments, but can be included also with speaking skills; (2) in materials, the scientific genre and spelling also need to be emphasized; (3) students recommend to use the problem-based learning method, especially for grammar error cases; and (4) the assessment of Indonesian language needs to be designed not only in the form of assignments, but also in the form of objectives and/or essays in accordance with the criterion of HOTS.    

Background:Non-hemorrhagic strokeis a cerebrovascular disease that occurs when the blood supply to part of the brain is suddenly interrupted by occlusion, usually caused by thrombosis, embolism, and focal hypoperfusion which can cause a reduction or disruption in cerebral blood flow (CBF) and affect neurological function due to lack of glucose and oxygen. Computed tomography scanning (CT Scan) of the head is a special examination of the head that uses tomography techniques with X-ray beams penetrating the patient's head from various directions using a computer system to produce anatomical images in axial, sagittal and coronal planes..One of the parameters for a CT scan of the head is Increment Reconstruction. Reconstruction Increment is the distance between reconstruction images in volume data. Method: Typeresearch is quantitative with an experimental approach, carried out in July-August 2023 at Bali Mandara Regional Hospital. The population and sample of this study were 10 patients with indications of non-hemorrhagic stroke. Results :research results from the overall Friedman test on CT scans of the head with clinical non-hemorrhagic stroke using variations in reconstruction increments of 0.5mm, 0.9mm, 1.5mm, 2mm, the results of the most optimal anatomical image information in producing images from 4 variations of increments, namely in the 2mm increment reconstruction which has the highest mean rank value, namely 3.30 in the thalamus area, 3.40 in the lateral ventricle area, 3.25 in the white matter area, 3.40 in the gray matter area, 3.40 in the lesion area hypodense/infarction of 3.25. Conclusion:From the results of the Friedman test on CT scans of the head with clinical non-hemorrhagic strokes using variations in reconstruction increments of 0.5mm, 0.9mm, 1.5mm, 2mm against anatomical criteria, the most optimal value in producing an image is at a reconstruction increment of 2mm which has the highest mean rank value.

Background: One of the modalities used to diagnose chronic rhinosinusitis is MSCT Scan. In MSCT Scan, there are several scanning parameters used, namely slice thickness and reconstruction increment. This study aims to determine the effect of variations in slice thickness reconstruction and increment reconstruction on the anatomical image information of MSCT scans of coronal paranasal sinuses in cases of chronic rhinosinusitis.

The advantages of the CTA procedure using the smart prep technique image resolution quality could be higher.

This research aims to examine the problems that occur in the crime of murder and premeditated murder in the charges that will be filed against the perpetrators of these crimes. At the beginning, the background will be about how a criminal law in Indonesia develops and in carrying out its function as a legal rule that contains provisions, prohibitions, and criminal threats for those who commit a criminal case. This research will emphasize the problems that occur with the obstacles experienced by law enforcement in identifying a legal event that occurs in the case of murder with premeditated murder in finding an element of fulfillment, especially against the elements of the offense of premeditated murder. Then after that, the research will continue on legal reconstruction and legal discovery at the court hearing which aims to facilitate the disclosure of a legal event that occurs in order to find the material truth so that the judge can determine the sentence for the perpetrator.
