Acoustic Emission based determination of delamination initiation in GFRP laminates

Acoustic Emission (AE) has the potential to identify delamination initiation in quasi-static Mode I fracture tests on glass fiber-reinforced polymer-matrix (GFRP) laminates. It had been shown that a combined AE activity and intensity criterion yields critical Mode I delamination resistance values GIC for an AS4/PEEK carbon fiber thermoplastic composite that are comparable to those from data analysis according to ASTM D5528. However, the AE historic index also allows for detection of delamination initiation under Mode I and Mode II loading of carbon fiber reinforced thermoplastics and thermosets. In the present study, these AE criteria for initiation under Mode I, Mode II and Mixed Mode I/II loading of GFRP epoxy laminates are compared with AE signal energy as additional initiation criterion. Initiation under Mode II and Mixed Mode I/II at a ratio of 4:3 was determined with two different set ups for each Mode. For some test configurations noise signals make unambiguous initiation detection difficult. Determination by means of AE energy or AE activity and intensity yields more conservative GC values compared with the AE historic index or criteria defined in the standards, however, with similar repeatability.

Beyond registration: a systematic review of the challenges in managing geographical indications

Intellectual property is a strategic resource for both companies and nations, with geographical indications (GIs) being one of its main elements. These constitute intellectual property mechanisms applicable to goods and services characterized by the place of origin (harvested, produced, or manufactured), which involve environmental, historical, social, and cultural criteria, and thus, need to be managed appropriately. This study aims to analyze how GI management has been addressed in primary studies on the topic. To this end, a systematic review of the related literature between the years 2013 and 2023 was conducted. Out of a total of 396 publications, 21 national publications were selected in which GI appeared as the main objective along with its management process. However, after a complete analysis, it was found that post-registration management is still treated as a secondary objective, thereby demonstrating the importance of further studies on the topic.

Evaluating patient immunocompetence through antibody response to pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine using a newly developed 23 serotype multiplexed assay

Assessing T-cell independent antibody response to polysaccharide vaccines is crucial for diagnosing humoral immune deficiencies. However, immunocompetence criteria based on S. pneumoniae vaccination remain unclear. We evaluated IgG antibody vaccine response in healthy individuals to establish interpretive criteria. Pre- and 4-week post-vaccination sera were collected from 79 adults. Antibody concentrations to PNEUMOVAX 23 serotypes were measured using a multiplexed platform. Immunocompetence was determined by fold increase in post-vaccination response, percentage of serotypes achieving 4- or 2-fold antibody ratio, and post-vaccination concentration ≥ 1.3 μg/mL. Immunogenicity varied widely across the 23 serotypes (26.6% to 94.9% for ≥4-fold increase, 51.9% to 98.7% for ≥2-fold increase). Immunocompetence based on historic criteria of ≥4-fold increase in antibody ratio to ≥70% of serotypes was low (72.2%), but increased to 98.7% with criteria of at least a 2-fold increase and/or post-vaccination concentration ≥ 1.3 μg/mL. Current criteria for assessing immunocompetence may be overly stringent and require updating.

Retrospective analysis of veno-occlusive disease/sinusoidal obstruction syndrome in paediatric patients undergoing hematopoietic cell transplantation -a multicentre study

BackgroundSinusoidal obstructive syndrome is a potentially fatal complication following hematopoietic cell transplantation, high-intensity chemotherapies and increasingly seen with calicheamicin based leukaemia therapies. Paediatric specific European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation (pEBMT) diagnostic criteria have demonstrated benefit in single centre studies compared to historic criteria. Yet, the extent to which they have been universally implemented remains unclear. MethodsWe conducted a retrospective multi-centre study to examine the potential impact of the Baltimore, modified Seattle and pEBMT criteria on the incidence, severity, and outcomes of sinusoidal obstructive syndrome among paediatric hematopoietic cell transplantation patients. FindingsThe incidence of sinusoidal obstructive syndrome in this cohort (n=488) was higher by pEBMT (21·5%) versus historic modified Seattle (15·6%) and Baltimore (7·0%) criteria (p<0·001). Application of pEBMT criteria identified 44 patients who were not previously diagnosed with sinusoidal obstructive syndrome. Overall, 70·5% of all patients diagnosed with sinusoidal obstructive syndrome ultimately developed severe/very severe disease and almost half of diagnosed patients required critical care support. Overall survival was significantly lower in patients who were diagnosed with sinusoidal obstructive syndrome versus those who were not. InterpretationTaken together, pEBMT criteria may be a sensitive method for prompter diagnosis of patients who subsequently develop severe/very severe sinusoidal obstructive syndrome. To our knowledge, this is the first multi-centre study in the United States (US) to demonstrate that pEBMT guidelines are associated with earlier detection of sinusoidal obstructive syndrome. Since early initiation of definitive treatment for sinusoidal obstructive syndrome has been associated with improved survival in paediatric patients and implementation of pEBMT criteria appears feasible in the US, universal adoption should facilitate prompter diagnosis and lead to improved outcomes of children with sinusoidal obstructive syndrome.Funding: None

Business center at 69 Dekabristov street: history first

Interaction between new projects and historical buildings is explored on the example of the business center at 69 Dekarbistov Street. The role of this business center in the structure of the historically significant area in Yekaterinburg is established through analysis of its spatial and urban compositions, and plastic and coloristic solutions. Opinions from practicing architects and architecture theorists have enabled general architectural and artistic approaches to the design of new architectural objects in historical contexts and criteria for their analysis to be formulated. A review of similar objects from Russian and international practice provided an evaluation scale with two opposite values: "full contrast" and "full nuance" of architectural solutions for a new facility in relation to the existing surrounding buildings. In conclusion, the importance of the business center is revealed as an object that harmoniously interacts with the historical environment and forms a corner of the city block.

Study on China’s 2030 provincial carbon quota allocation scheme considering the positive and negative effects of historical emissions

The carbon quota allocation scheme serves as the fundamental backbone for ensuring the smooth and sustainable operation of the carbon market. Despite numerous prior studies, ongoing debates persist regarding the impact of historical emissions, both positive and negative, on carbon quota allocation. Utilizing the four indicators of historical emissions (both positive and negative), egalitarianism, payment capability, and emission efficiency, this paper employs the entropy method to develop 22 distinct carbon quota allocation plans tailored for China’s provincial regions in the year 2030. Subsequently, utilizing the shadow price method, the study calculates the emission reduction costs of each province under each allocation scheme, thereby evaluating the carbon quota plans from the perspective of emission reduction costs. Finally, a comparative analysis is conducted to assess the impact of both positive and negative historical emissions on the carbon quota allocation scheme, and the paper identifies the carbon quota allocation approach that minimizes the overall emission reduction cost for China. The findings suggest that: 1) allocating more allowances to provinces with higher historical emissions can effectively reduce emission reduction costs for each province; 2) the most cost-effective option for carbon quota allocation is a scheme that takes into account both egalitarian and historical emission criteria; 3) in order to further decrease the overall cost of emissions reduction, it is crucial to achieve comprehensive coverage of the carbon market and facilitate inter-provincial carbon quota trading.

After Hegel: A postmodern genealogy of historical fiction

In this article, we analyze a possible form of the relationship between modernity and postmodernity by examining the transformation of the place of enunciation of criticism as a philosophical narrative and using it as a historical and philosophical criterion. To achieve this, we first focus on key moments in the critical discourse of modernity, and then analyze the role of Kantian criticism in the formation of a postmodern imaginary associated with the notions of useful fiction and linguistification. Finally, from a Hegelian perspective, we consider the validity of the idea of universal history and its connections to emancipatory narratives.

Catégorisation conceptuelle des noms de pain en Pologne et stratégies appliquées à leur traduction en français

The aim of this article is threefold. Firstly, we will develop conceptual categories for the different types of bread offered by a “star” bakery in Poland known for its wide range of breads. We propose the analysis of bread names composed of the word bread (N) and nouns (N) or adjectives derived from nouns (ADJ) that designate e.g. intrinsic properties ([basic] ingredients, shape or appearance), location (spatial-geographical criteria), Polish culture (cultural criteria), history (historical criteria: historical figures or events), and others. Secondly, we will analyse existing Polish-French translations of bread names we found on the website of an international Polish bakery, which could be categorised in the same conceptual categories and subcategories which were defined in the first stage of our research. The analysis of translations will be based on the taxonomy of translation strategies developed by Diederik Gritt (1997) and Andrew Chesterman (2000). The third objective is to assess the relevance and applicability of machine translation, more precisely bythe application Chrome, for bread names belonging to certain (sub)categories by comparing them with existing translations.

Seizure or syncope: Is the history-based scale feasible to use in an emergency department setting?

BackgroundThis study aimed to assess the efficacy of a screening questionnaire, based on historical criteria, in distinguishing between seizures and syncope in patients experiencing their first episode of transient loss of consciousness (TLOC) in a neurology emergency department. MethodsA prospective cohort of 159 patients with initial TLOC episodes underwent clinical observation and answered a nine-question screening questionnaire. The questionnaire's predictive ability was compared to final diagnoses determined through detailed neurology, electrophysiology, and cardiology assessments during a minimum 12-month follow-up. Logistic regression (LR) analysis was performed with final diagnosis as the outcome variable. The calibration and discrimination of the models were assessed. Resultsrevealed that the screening score accurately classified 72.33% of patients. Among those with positive screening scores, 65 (67.71%) had seizures compared to 31 (32.29%) with syncope. Introducing a novel risk-scoring model incorporating age and gender, in addition to the screening score, significantly improved performance achieving an accurate classification rate of 81.48%. Among patients with a positive prediction, 63 (80.77%) had seizure, whereas 15 (19.23%) had syncope. ConclusionsEmploying a structured questionnaire based on common historical criteria is a valuable tool for distinguishing between seizure and syncope in the dynamic setting of the emergency department.

Administrative-territorial changes and their impact on urban development in Austria and Austria-Hungary (second half of the 18th - beginning of the 20th century)

The article analyzes the causes and consequences of administrative and territorial changes and their impact on urban planning in Austria and Austria- Hungary (second half of the 18th - beginning of the 20th century). It is noted that in the XVIII-XIX centuries. urban planning activities in the Austrian Empire were regulated by various normative legal acts, which included legal and bylaws. The main sources of legal regulation of urban planning activities in the Austrian Empire at that time were the Constitution of Charles VI of Habsburg, the Law on City Rights (Stadtrecht), the Civil Code (Allgemeines burgerliches Gesetzbuch) of 1811, the Construction Law (Bauordnung) of 1829, the Building Statute of 1882 (Budownicza ustawa), Laws on city rights, etc.&#x0D; It is shown that in 1784 the Austrian government began to organize urban planning activities by carefully classifying settlements. The need for such a classification was determined by the need to add an index to a detailed map of the country. The division of settlements into cities/towns/villages was to be carried out by the circular offices themselves as a result of the order of the court decree dated October 28, 1784. In the new governor's order on this matter dated December 13, 1784, it was noted at the very beginning that the circular offices, despite clear instructions governorates, qualified settlements as cities, towns and villages only on the basis of their location, size, number of inhabitants, buildings, and therefore not on the basis of proper attributes. The province also ordered that a city (Stadt) should be considered a settlement that has the privilege of being a city. When settlements did not have this privilege, they were to be considered villages (Dorfer). The classification of settlements was to be based solely on their privileges and no other considerations could be taken into account; therefore, only the historical criterion was applied, and as a result, all the privileges from Polish times were accepted in those clauses of their provisions that recognized the settlement as a city or town.&#x0D; It was established that the qualification of the suburb (Vorstadte) had to be considered differently. Here it was necessary to take into account: 1) distance from the city; 2) the judicial authority to which they were subject; 3) privileges. However, if the district office had certain doubts about the qualification of the settlement on the basis of the above instructions and felt compelled to qualify it in another way, then after consultation with the district commission (Werb-Bezirks-Kommando) it had to proceed as follows: appoint the authority and the local community ( Obrigkeit und Ortsgemeinde) and in the presence of the commandant of the recruitment commission to determine: 1) reasons for current qualifications and 2) reasons for changing qualifications for the future. All this classification of settlements, as emphasized by the order of the viceroyalty, was only intended to familiarize with the essence of these settlements, and in no case was intended to turn burghers into peasants or peasants into burghers.

Comparison of historical criterion and artificial intelligence in patients with left ventricular hypertrophy

Abstract Backgrounds Diagnostic criterion of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) on 12-leads electrocardiogram (ECG) were historically established. However, there was no study to evaluate the criterion comparing with machine learning methods. Purpose To verify the historical criterion of LVH on ECG, and to compare them with diagnosis by machine learning. Methods First, consecutive 60 patients with LVH were recruited, and one to one matching with age and sex to patients with normal cardiac function was performed. Finally, 120 patients (69.6 ± 12.6years, 38men per group) were enrolled. LVH was defined as at least one LV wall (septum, posterior wall, apex) showed thickness over 15mm on ultrasound echocardiography. No sinus rhythm, and wide QRS cases were excluded. The accuracy of historical criterion and ECG predictors were calculated by an assessment of whether a predictor was higher/lower than the cut-off value of receivor operating characteristics curve analysis (ROC). Ten machine learning methods were built using the significant predictors of logistic regression with 10-times cross validation. Results By logistic regression analysis, 77 significant predictors were extracted, and 22 predictors showed their area under ROC (AUROC) over 0.700. Among historical criterion, Cornell voltage showed high accuracy (0.783) and AUROC (0.808). Conversely, among AI methods, light gradient boosting machine demonstrated higher accuracy (0.843) and random forest method higher AUROC (0.882). Shapley additive explanation method (SHAP) demonstrated that V2/V2 S-wave amplitude and I/V5 T-wave amplitude played essential roles to build the AI models. Conclusions AI diagnosis on ECG for LVH showed powerful diagnostic performance comparing historical criterion.

Abstract 13690: Diagnosis of Left Ventricular Hypertrophy on 12-leads Electrocardiogram by Historical Criterion and Machine Learning Models

Introduction: Diagnostic criterion of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) on 12-leads electrocardiogram (ECG) were established. We verified them comparing with artificial intelligence (AI) method. Hypothesis: Machine learning on 12-leads ECG show higher diagnostic performance comparing with historical criterion. Methods: First, consecutive 60 patients with LVH were recruited, and one to one matching with age and sex to patients with normal cardiac function was performed. Finally, 120 patients (69.6 ± 12.6years, 38men per group) were enrolled. LVH was defined as at least one LV wall (septum, posterior wall, apex) showed thickness over 15mm on ultrasound echocardiography. No sinus rhythm, and wide QRS cases were excluded. Results: By logistic regression analysis, 77 significant predictors were extracted. Among historical criterion, Cornell voltage showed high accuracy (0.783) and area under receiver operating characteristics curve analysis (AUROC; 0.808). Conversely, among AI methods, light gradient boosting machine demonstrated higher accuracy (0.843) and random forest method higher AUROC (0.882). V2/V2 S-wave amplitude and I/V5 T-wave amplitude played essential roles to build the AI models. Conclusions: AI diagnosis on ECG for LVH showed powerful diagnostic performance comparing historical criterion.

Formation and development of sources of legal regulation of urban planning activities in Austria and Austria-Hungary (second half of the 18th – beginning of the 20th century)

The article analyzes the formation and development of sources of legal regulation of urban development in Austria and Austria-Hungary (second half of the 18th - beginning of the 20th century). It is noted that only 12 years after the annexation of Galicia, the Austrian government began to carefully classify settlements. The need for such a classification was determined by the need to add an index to a detailed map of the country. The division of settlements into cities/towns/villages was to be carried out by the circular offices themselves as a result of the order of the court decree dated October 28, 1784. In the new governor’s order on this matter dated December 13, 1784, it was noted at the very beginning that the circular offices, despite clear instructions governorates, qualified settlements as cities, towns and villages only on the basis of their location, size, number of inhabitants, buildings, and therefore not on the basis of proper attributes. The province also ordered that a city (Stadt) should be considered a settlement that has the privilege of being a city. When settlements did not have this privilege, they were to be considered villages (Dörfer). The classification of settlements was to be based solely on their privileges and no other considerations could be taken into account; therefore, only the historical criterion was applied, and as a result, all the privileges from Polish times were accepted in those clauses of their provisions that recognized the settlement as a city or town.&#x0D; It has been established that the legal regulation of town planning activities in Austria in the XVIII–XIX centuries. was based mainly on legislative acts of various nature. The general rules of construction were determined by the Civil Code of 1811, the Law on City Rights, the Laws on Construction of 1829 and 1868, separate construction statutes for Galician cities/towns, adopted in the second half of the 19th century. Materials from the Josephine and Franciscan metrics, descriptions of localities and indicating the status of settlements, building regulations established for individual cities/towns of Galicia as part of the Habsburg monarchy play an important role in the study of the subject. The sources of legal regulation of town planning activities in Austria and Austria-Hungary (second half of the 18th - beginning of the 20th century) were the laws and regulations adopted at the level of central and local governments (magistrates, provincial boards). The list of such sources is wide - from the Civil Code to local specialized construction laws. The authorities also adopted provisions on the protection of cultural heritage and architectural monuments. The innovations introduced by the Austrian government were aimed at streamlining construction activities.

Jurisprudential fabrication and Its Applications to the Oath of Invocation According to the Practice in Jordanian Sharia Courts

This study highlights the legal jurisprudential issue that arises in Sharia courts, derived from the provisions of the Journal of Judicial Judgements, which is a question of the "Oath of Invocation." It also examines the jurisprudential concept of fabrication, identifying the scholars who permit it, its relation to the concept of facilitation in Islamic law, the conditions for its application, its historical emergence, types, categories, and criteria. The study further highlights the application of the jurisprudential fabrication in Article 1746 of the Judicial Decisions Journal as practiced by the Journal of Judicial Judgements, discussing the necessity and justification for its application. Additionally, it explores the scholars who oppose its permissibility and clarifies the religious obligations regarding its application. The jurisprudential oath is then applied in the context of the "judgment against the non-concealing opponent" and supported by a series of appellate decisions related to the legitimate forensics oath in cases involving inheritance debts. Finally, the study concludes with key findings and recommendations.

Assessing the social values of historic shopping arcades: building biographies

Social value has a long academic tradition in the field of heritage studies, and while it has become part of heritage management, expert-driven intrinsic values still dominate the conservation policy and practice. This paper explores the use of building biographies as a way to assess, illustrate and record the social value of shopping arcades. A case study of the North Street Arcade in Belfast, Northern Ireland, is used to explore how building biographies can contribute bottom-up evidence to top-down value-based approaches of architectural conservation. The North Street Arcade is a listed shopping arcade that has been lying vacant and derelict for the last 30 years awaiting demolition and redevelopment. Archival documents, historic photographs, news reports and documentaries, interviews and anthropology were combined to compile the arcade’s biography. Allowing the combination of positivist and interpretive approaches, as well as merging community and expert voices, building biographies can produce localised and inclusive heritage narratives that accentuate the many dimensions of social value that different publics ascribe to built heritage. Policy relevance Although social value has become part of heritage management, expert-driven values still dominate the conservation policy and practice. The inclusion of social value in the statutory criteria for listing could afford heritage protection to places that are highly valued by local communities, thereby encompassing places that do not fulfil the architectural and historic criteria. This article explores the use of building biographies as a way to assess, illustrate and record the social value of shopping arcades. The building biography is an approach that combines qualitative methods deriving from anthropology and sociology with historical and architectural analysis, and can be used to highlight the link between people and places, as well as their ever-changing cultural context. This paper illustrates how building biographies can contribute bottom-up evidence to top-down value-based approaches of architectural conservation and highlight the social value of shopping arcades.

Impact of an accessory cavitated uterine mass on fertility: case presentation and review of the literature

We report a case of an accessory cavitated uterine mass (ACUM) in a patient with infertility and chronic pelvic pain. In addition, we summarize the literature to better characterize ACUM diagnosis and management. A comprehensive literature search using the PubMed database was performed through April 2023. Historical ACUM diagnostic criteria were applied as inclusion criteria. Descriptive statistics and statistical evaluation were reported. A 31-year-old nulligravid woman presented with chronic pelvic pain, dysmenorrhea, primary infertility, and history of endometriosis. Three-dimensional ultrasonography identified an ACUM and laparoscopic excision provided complete resolution of symptoms. Subsequently, she conceived without assistance twice with uncomplicated vaginal deliveries. A total of 154 articles were identified, 34 papers met inclusion criteria and were individually reviewed, consisting of 70 reported cases. The most common presenting complaints were dysmenorrhea (81.4%), chronic pelvic/abdominal pain (54.1%), and refractory pain (34.3%). Diagnostic imaging included magnetic resonance imaging (62.9%) and transvaginal ultrasound (55.7%). Management included resection via laparoscopy (75.7%) or laparotomy (18.6%), or hysterectomy (5.7%). Of cases with reported outcomes, 90.7% had complete relief of symptoms after surgery. ACUM often presents with dysmenorrhea, chronic pelvic pain, or abdominal pain and is identifiable on magnetic resonance imaging as a hyperenhancing mass. Three-dimensional transvaginal ultrasound can also accurately identify ACUM. A total of 90.7% of patients had complete relief of symptoms after intervention. It is important to identify ACUM early to relieve pain and reduce unnecessary interventions. Like our patient, other reports have demonstrated concomitant infertility and endometriosis. However, further investigation is needed to explore the association between infertility and ACUM.

The phenotype of mixed connective tissue disease patients having associated interstitial lung disease

ObjectiveWe aimed to compare two matched populations of patients with MTCD with and without associated ILD and to identify predictive factors for ILD progression and severity. MethodsThis international multicenter retrospective study (14 tertiary hospitals), included MCTD patients who fulfilled at least one historical MCTD classification criteria. ILD was defined by the presence of typical chest high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) abnormalities. Factors associated with ILD were assessed at baseline. Long-term progressive ILD was assessed in MCTD-ILD patients with multiple forced vital capacity (FVC) measurements. Results300 patients with MCTD were included. Mean age at diagnosis was 39.7 ± 15.4 years and 191 (63.7%) were women. Mean follow-up was 7.8 ± 5.5 years. At baseline, we identified several factors associated with ILD presence: older age (p = 0.01), skin thickening (p = 0.03), upper gastro-intestinal (GI) symptoms (p<0.001), FVC <80% (p<0.0001), diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide <80% (p<0.0001), anti-topoisomerase antibodies (p = 0.01), SSA/Ro antibodies (p = 0.02), cryoglobulinemia (p = 0.04) and elevated C-reactive protein (p<0.001). Patients with MTCD-ILD were more likely to be treated with synthetic immunosuppressant agents (p<0.001) in particular mycophenolate mofetil (p = 0.03). Digital ulcers (DU) were identified as a risk factor for FVC decline >10%. During follow-up mortality was higher in the MTCD-ILD group (p<0.001). ConclusionIn this large international cohort of patients with MTCD, we identified different factors associated with ILD. Our findings also provide evidence that MCTD-ILD patients have increased mortality and that DU are associated with progressive lung disease.

Renal angiomyolipoma: Beyond size criteria for predicting rupture.

Renal angiomyolipomas (AMLs) are vascular tumours that while histologically benign, carry a risk of rupture and potentially life-threatening haemorrhage. Selective arterial embolisation (SAE) has been demonstrated as effective treatment; however, given most tumours are asymptomatic, the challenge facing the radiologist is selection of which AML should undergo treatment. This study considers presence and size of intratumoural aneurysm, to advance the readers treatment decision-making beyond historical size criteria. Retrospective cohort analysis of all SAE-treated AML at a quaternary-level institution in the last 10 years was completed independently by two radiologists. Computerised tomography (CT) and angiographic imaging were reviewed to evaluate tumour size, presence of intratumoural aneurysm and aneurysm size. Univariant and multivariant statistical analyses were used to identify predictors of spontaneous rupture and haemorrhage. Twenty-seven renal AML underwent SAE. Five tumours had presented with haemorrhage. Twenty-two were asymptomatic or without CT/angiographic detectable haemorrhage. There was no statistically significant size difference between ruptured (mean 7.8 cm, range 6.1-12.0 cm) and unruptured AML (7.5 cm, 3.3-21.7 cm) in the study population. Eighty percent of ruptured AML and 27% of unruptured AML contained at least one intratumoural aneurysm (P-value < 0.05). Mean aneurysm size in ruptured AMLs was 5.4 mm, versus 4.6 mm among unruptured AML (P-value > 0.05). The presence of intratumoural aneurysm is a useful predictor for AMLs that are at risk of spontaneous rupture and haemorrhage. Intratumoural aneurysm should therefore be considered when selecting patients to undergo SAE.

Notes on Assessment of Cultural Significance of the 18th-Century Old Mosque: A Case Study of the Al-Anwar Angke Mosque Jakarta

This paper discusses the assessment process of the cultural significance of the Al-Anwar Angke Mosque in Jakarta. The mosque has been designated as an important cultural heritage, in which architectural, historical, and sociocultural values are explicitly demonstrated. Furthermore, the mosque was also considered a symbol of the diverse community in Batavia. However, the 18th-century mosque has undergone physical (including its details and ornaments) and environmental changes due to sociocultural, economic, and political dynamics. Therefore, continuous monitoring is essential to protect historic buildings, and cultural heritage values should be assessed periodically. The assessment of cultural significance includes aesthetic, historical, scientific, sociocultural, and spiritual criteria. Data collection and analysis are based on observation, interviews, and related literature. Furthermore, some critical notes indicate that assessment must be performed regularly and continuously. Thus, such an assessment is required to understand its values and unique artefacts. However, rather than determine the role of the Angke Mosque within its ever-changing context. As pointed out in the cultural significance assessment process, the article reveals the importance of recording and digitizing knowledge to comprehend the past, present, and future. Moreover, the appreciation might be understood differently due to the current urban dynamic. The assessment of the cultural significance of the Angke Mosque needs to accommodate community participation and a multidisciplinary approach to understanding architectural heritage, driven by the paradigm shift from a physical-based to a value-based system.
