Incidence of and Risk Factors for Central Venous Catheter Thrombosis: Results from a Single-Center Pediatric Intensive Care Unit
The current study found that PIC line was associated with an increased risk of CVC-RT, which is congruent with the literature. As children with CVC can have multiple risk factors for developing CVC-RT, it is important to conduct further large prospective studies to identify such factors and decrease the incidence of CVC-RT
Egypt: The Islamists and the State Under Mubarak
The development of the Islamist movement in Egypt represents a political and ideological struggle between one of the leading states in the Middle East and the most widespread opposition movement in the Muslim world in recent decades. The history of the Islamist groups in Egypt has been one of exclusion from political power due to government policies or particular ideologies or activities. The resort to violence by Islamists as a legitimate means …

Islamism revisited
While contemporary Islamism is a response to the domestic political situation in many Muslim countries, as well as to US and western policies in the Muslim world, it is also about religious assertion and the forging of an alternative ideology, not only as a means of empowerment but also as a means of establishing a particular social order. The debate is as much an internal one as it is a global one and in many ways mirrors the struggles of the ni…
Islamist attitudes to the current world order
The subject of Islam and politics raises problems of definition and categorisation of its religio‐ideological content and of the different groups and parties which uphold that Islam and politics are inextricably linked. There is a general consensus in the more recent literature on Islam that Islam is not monolithic. There are frequent references to the ‘variety of Islams’, ‘the Islam of the state’, ‘the Islam of radical Islamist groups’ and ‘sufi…

The Gulf crisis: Perceptions in the Muslim world
Maha Azzam documents perceptions of the Gulf confrontation as an Islamic issue in Muslim countries in the Middle East, the Maghreb, Africa and Asia. The crisis has cemented perceptions of the West's enmity towards the interests of Muslims, she writes. She investigates whether an Islamic political identity emerged in the confrontation, based on a complex mix of nationalism, anti-colonialism, hostility to Western hegemony and perceived control of t…
The use of discourse in understanding Islamic‐oriented protest groups in Egypt 1971–1981
This paper proposes to outline some of the general patterns and meanings underlying the politics of Islamic-Oriented protest groups (IOPGs) by going beyond the Islamic framework of reference. I use the label IOPGs to include a variety of groups and individuals during the Sadat period who called for an Islamic system of government and who believed that the use of force was a legitimate means of bringing it about. I will concentrate on the Jihad gr…
