Amniotic Membrane Enhance the Effect of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor on the Angiogenic Marker Expression of Stem Cells from Human Exfoliated Deciduous Teeth
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Previously, it was reported that human amniotic membrane (AM) induced stem cells from human deciduous exfoliated teeth (SHED) endothelial-like-cell differentiation. This interesting effect of AM matrix on SHED demands further elucidation. Objective of this in vitro work was to study the effect of 24-h VEGF induced on SHED endothelial differentiatio

Glycemic Patterns and Factors Associated with post-Hemodialysis Hyperglycemia Among end-Sstage-renal Disease Patients Undergoing Maintenance Hemodialysis
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Introduction. Chronic and post-prandial hyperglycemia are independent risk factors for diabetic complications. Glycemic patterns among hemodialysis end-stage-renal-disease (ESRD) differ as glucose metabolism changes with declining kidney function with more pronounced glycemic fluctuations. The objectives of this study are to determine glycemic patt

Internet of Things: Ideological Prospects and its Social Implication to the Muslim Community
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This paper sought after identifying some likely traps a Muslim might fall into because of the geometric improvement in the field of network connectivity, with a strict focus on Internet of Things (IoT). The principal aim was to reawaken the people (Muslims) on their sole purpose on this earth as they swim in the pool of development and ease of doin

The Role of Modern Medicine in Clarifying Definitions in Islamic Jurisprudence (Ta’rifaats Fi al-Fiqh)
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

In the usual circumstances, the medical professional is consulted by Islamic scholars when a problem related to medicine involving Muslim society arises; where a specific fatwa (Islamic ruling) is needed. Commonly, in this situation, there are possible implications on halaal (permissibility) and haraam (prohibitions) related to the medical conditio

Shaykh Ahmadou Bamba: a Peacemaker for Our Time
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

I first heard about Ahmadou Bamba (ca. 1850-1927) thirty-two years ago through the 9-part BBC television series titled The Africans: A Triple Heritage presented by the doyen of Africa and Islam studies, the late Professor Ali Mazrui. The series, which was produced in 1986 was also published in the form of a book. And the name of Ahmadu Bamba has re

Computation of Stability Derivatives of an Oscillating Cone for Specific Heat Ratio = 1.66
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

In this paper the expressions for stiffness and Damping derivatives are obtained in a closed form for perfect gas where the flow is quasi-steady and axi-axisymmetric, and the nose semi angle of the cone is such that the Mach number behind the shock . Results are presented for an oscillating cone for gas with , at different Mach numbers and semi con

Diagnostic Delay and Reducing the Diagnostic Interval in Children with Brain Tumor
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Brain tumor account for a quarter of all childhood cancers, affecting about 1 in 2400 United Kingdom (UK) children under the age of 16 annually, while brain and other nervous system cancer incidence per 100,000 population in Peninsular Malaysia for age 0-19 years was 84/100000. Death occurs either as a result of catastrophic presentations with rais

The Computation of Stiffness Derivative for an Ogive in the Hypersonic Flow
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Expression for Stiffness derivative for an Ogive is derived with the suppositions of the arc on the nose of the cone from the air is being considered as perfect gas and the viscosity being neglected, the motion is quasi-steady, and the nose deflection angle of the Ogive θ is in such a way that the M2 after the shock is > 2.5. It is seen that d

Combating Climate Change in Malaysia: Critical Appraisal on Sukuk as an Islamic Social Finance Instrument
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Sukuk are majorly used to raise funds in a large scale for the purpose of developments. With the increase of interest for responsible finance and investment, sukuk are used to meet such interests from the stakeholders. Instead of only looking for development purposes, Muslim scholars proposed that sukuk could be used for many other different purpos

Enhanced Kinetic Performance of clea-Lipase Extracted from Skim Latex of Hevea Brasiliensis Upon Immobilization on Magnetic Nanoparticles
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

In this research, lipase recovered from the skim latex of Hevea brasiliensis was immobilized via cross-linked enzyme aggregates (CLEA) technology, while supported by magnetic nanoparticles {MNPs), for properties enhancement. Hybrid immobilization may have affected the kinetic performances of the biocatalysts. The kinetic performance of both MNP sup
