The research for the review of literature is one of the first and foremost important steps in the research process. The search for related literature is a time consuming but fruitful phase of any research programme. In this article, the researcher was made an attempt to present findings from the collected related literature on parenting styles and emotional intelligence of adolescents. The main motto behind this article is to review of related literature from 1990 to till date. The paper also summarizes the findings of the studies on Emotional Intelligence and Parenting Styles giving a direction for future research.

Conventional tourism had opened a “window” for Islamic tourism to operationalize which at present is expanded throughout the world. As the Muslim population is rising rapidly, Muslim consumer market should be critically concerned by tourism businesses to satisfy the needs and wants of the consumers. This paper attempts to explain the concept of Islamic tourism in the context of maqasid shariah – protection of religion, protection of intellect, protection of life, protection of wealth and protection of offspring; discusses the role of Islamic religiosity in shaping tourists’ behaviour, as well as tourism industry’s role in applying Islamic tourism according to maqasid shariah, from the tourism industry’s perspective and tourists’ perspective. To date, there is still lack of knowledge and related literature review on the implementation of maqasid shariah in the concept of tourism industry. The ultimate goals of shariah are vital as the platform in the development of Islamic tourism as well as Islamic religiosity among Muslim consumers because it resembles the value of Islamic concept in tourism perspectives.

Practical Implications

PurposeMuslim tourists participating in halal tourism activities represent a valuable niche market for global tourism industry. The purpose of this study is to clarify the concepts of halal tourism and Islamic tourism and to draw attention to some conceptual and practical challenges in the halal tourism industry.Design/methodology/approachThe paper is based on a critical assessment of the literature in this field. To differentiate the concepts and to discuss practical and conceptual challenges, the authors found some references by reviewing the existing definitions in related literature and the primary source of the concepts which is Holy Book of Islam, Quran.FindingsThe terms “intention” and “Islamic motivation” can be used to differentiate Islamic tourism and halal tourism. The authors suggest calling hotels that provide good and services in halal tourism industry as “halal hotels” and tourists as “Muslim tourists”. One of the leading practical challenges in halal tourism is having lack of halal standards, especially for hotels. As the way Muslims understand and adapt their lives to Islam is quite different, which means this market is not homogenous, the authors suggest that halal hotels should be scaled through different qualifications in different countries.Research limitations/implicationsThis study is based on literature review, and it lacks primary research.Practical implicationsCurrent paper stresses the need for consistent use of Islamic-related tourism terms in industry. Hotel companies should have halal certifications that will provide assurance to customers. It is highly important for hotel companies to inform their target guests about the location of hotel before arriving at hotel. This is because halal hotels and other hotels are usually located in resort destination, especially in Turkey.Originality/valueThis paper is one of the leading papers that differentiates Islamic tourism and halal tourism concepts. It also provides several conceptual and practical issues in halal tourism industry.

Abstract Funding Acknowledgements Type of funding sources: None. Background Routine defibrillation testing during implant and replacement of the subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (S-ICD) is recommended per current guidelines. Recently, concerns have been raised about an increase in shock impedance and consequent shock failure during defibrillation testing in S-ICD patients undergoing a generator replacement. Purpose We aim to describe the defibrillation success rate in relation to the shock impedance in patients undergoing S-ICD generator replacement in our large tertiary center. Methods In this retrospective analysis, data from replacement procedures were collected from all patients who underwent an S-ICD generator replacement in our center from June 2014 to December 2020. Defibrillation testing was performed with at least one shock of ≤65J, and a successful shock was defined as terminating the ventricular arrhythmia within 5 seconds after the shock. Results A total of 133 patients underwent an S-ICD generator replacement, 5.8 ± 0.9 years after initial implant. Reasons for replacement were: reaching of elective replacement indicator (n = 119), early battery depletion (n = 9), complaints of generator pocket (n = 3) and device malfunction (n = 2). Defibrillation testing was performed in 111 patients (86.5%) undergoing a replacement procedure. Shock impedance data from both the implant and replacement procedure were available in 101 patients. The median shock impedance of these patients during their replacement procedure was significantly higher than during their implant, 79Ω (IQR 66-94) and 66Ω (IQR 57.5-81) respectively (Z = -5.552, p < 0.001). Despite the higher shock impedance, first shock during defibrillation testing was successful in 105/111 patients (94.6%), with a success rate of 97.3% after two attempts. In the remaining three patients, the ventricular arrhythmia could only be terminated with a 80J shock. This was the case during both their initial implant and their replacement procedure. Shock impedance increase between implant and replacement was not significantly higher in patients with a successful first shock compared to patients with an unsuccessful first shock (Δ+11.1 ± 20.0Ω versus Δ+12.7 ± 27.6Ω, p = 0.86). Conclusion In this large retrospective analysis, we have shown a first shock success rate during S-ICD generator replacement of 94.6%, which is similar to the success rate of defibrillation testing after initial implant. After multiple attempts, defibrillation testing success rate was 100%. Even though the median shock impedance during replacement was significantly higher than during the initial implant, there was no difference in impedance increase in patients with a successful shock compared to patients with an unsuccessful shock.
