NATIVE AND FOREIGN LANGUAGES: BALANCE OR OPPOSITION?
Authors:   Bashkir State Pedagogical University n.a. M. Akmulla, Khairullina Raisa Kh. , Fatkullina Fluza G. ,   Bashkir State University
Published: March 2021

The article considers the issue of the ethno linguistic situation in the national region using the example of the Republic of Bashkortostan. The authors consider the urgent problems of modern linguistic education to be an uneven correlation between native and foreign languages in the educational process, the lack of a unified methodology in the formation of a multilingual linguistic personality, weak interdisciplinary connections in the study of languages, and occasional use of linguistic and cultural approaches.
LINGUO-AXIOLOGICAL PORTRAIT OF MODERN LUGANSK (ACCORDING TO THE DATA OF ASSOCIATIVE EXPERIMENT)
Authors:   Lugansk state pedagogical University, Shkuran Oksana V.
Published: March 2021

The axiological approach to the study of the linguistic portrait reflects the value potential of the linguistic personality of a resident of the city of Lugansk within a single culture. In this article, the results of a linguistic associative experiment are presented in relation to spiritual and material needs. For defining the central concept of evaluability, we selected language units based on the respondents speech – thinking operation under binary conditions (valueanti- value). The results are related to the existing ethnic and political ideas about the value of the object, sociological and historical conditionality. Communicative evaluation as a factor of ethno-cultural behavior of a Russian-speaking Lugansk citizen illustrates the sphere of “important” – “unimportant”, “true” – “false”, “sacred” – “desacral”. The modeled value system forms a microfield based on associative relationships. The established axiological hierarchy after generalizing the results of the associative experiment showed a vertical with the subjective nature of values, based on the spiritual and material needs of a person (loyalty, soul, charity, wisdom, honor, work, spouses, feat, etc.), which are reflected through the prism of the national language system. The perinuclear and peripheral zone of a language unit consists of a sensory-figurative reflection of the object, and the diversity of values contains both positive and negative characteristics. This study allows us to present a fairly reliable linguistic and axiological portrait of a Russian-speaking resident of Lugansk with a personal cognitive base and an individual character of assessment or emotion in the act of speech in the context of the Russian language picture of the world.
LANGUAGE POLICY IN THE EDUCATIONAL ENVIRONMENT OF THE RUSSIAN-BELARUSIAN BORDERLANDS
Authors:   Smolensk State University, Koroleva Inna A.
Published: March 2021

In the light of modern processes of globalization, the importance and significance of cross-border cooperation between the border regions of Russia and the Republic of Belarus in various fields: economic, political, administrative and, of course, socio-cultural, is quite obvious. Particular attention should be paid to the language policy in the border zone, in particular – to the language processes in the educational environment that form and socialize the personality of a young person, schoolchildren and student. Using the example of the implementation of language policy in a separate region, the Smolensk-Vitebsk borderland (the Smolensk region borders the Vitebsk region of the Republic of Belarus for more than 200 km), it is shown how the study of sociocultural realities in the territories of contacting languages, Russian and Belarusian, can be practically implemented in educational practice, which contributes to the formation of knowledge of the interaction of different national languages, Russian and Belarusian, among students of schools and universities of the borderlands. It has been proved that there are both processes of cultural globalization and self-identification of ethnic communities in the borderlands. It is considered how the correct language policy in the educational environment helps to solve the problem of the growing generation’s awareness of cultural dialogue in the bilingual space, makes it possible to develop national self-identification while simultaneously perceiving the value attitude towards the Russian language. The attention is focused on the role of the process of cooperation in the field of education. It has been proven that the correct implementation of the language policy strengthens the relationship between Russia and the Republic of Belarus, allows expanding contacts in the professional educational and scientific environment. It is assumed that the further introduction of the socio-cultural component into the educational practice of the borderlands will expand the possibilities of dialogue between the native languages – Russian and Belarusian.
COMPARING THE POLITICAL TRUST AND CIVIC POLITICAL CULTURE OF DEMOCRACY OR AUTHORITARIAN IN ASIAN COUNTRIES
Authors: Yang Hsiu-wen
Published: March 2021

The political trust of the people is essential for the consolidation of the regime, but it has not been discussed whether the democratic or authoritarian system is more consolidated. This article uses the Asian Democracy Dynamics Survey of 2010 to divide 11 countries into the system of democracy, excessive democracy and autocracy, and autocracy according to the Polity IV index. It will test the people’s political trust in these three different political systems, and try to explain the differences from the "cultural perspective" and "citizen classification." The cultural perspective is divided into authoritarianism, traditionalism, collectivism, and Confucian which belongs to the specific political culture in Asia. This paper created the concept of "accepted and rejected" citizenship. Studies have found that the more authoritarian the country, the higher the trust of the people, and it’s not easy to change the original regime. In addition to the traditional view, those who do hold culturally authoritative, collective, and Confucian views have high political trust and trust the government to take full responsibility. People have a higher degree of trust in their government, which is the hidden reason that may cause the authoritarian or transitional regime to fail to transform into a democratic regime.

Published: March 2021

This study aims to determine the effect of the dose of plant growth regulator (PGR) Gibgro-20T on the growth of Eucheuma cottonii in-vitro. The experimental method used was a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) treatment with a Gibgro-20T dose of 0 ppm (control), 5 ppm, 10 ppm, and 15 ppm. The results showed that the highest weight growth rate (RGRW) obtained at 10 ppm PGR dose, which is 1.27% per day. Meanwhile, the highest length growth rate (RGRL) obtained at a dose of 10 ppm, which was 1.72% per day, and the highest RGRL was significantly different from the control (0 ppm) and 5 ppm but was not different real (P<0.05) with 15 ppm treatment. Using Gibgro-20T at doses of 5, 10, and 15 ppm, however, doses of 10 and 15 ppm show higher length growth.

El objetivo de la investigación, consistió en analizar desde la perspectiva ecológica, aquellos factores que podrían ser facilitadores para que un adolescente inicie el consumo de sustancias psicoactivas, y para lograrlo; se consideró importante identificar los motivos intrínsecos y extrínsecos que tiene el adolescente para iniciar el consumo de sustancias psicoactivas, además se vio la necesidad de conocer los aportes que tiene el enfoque sistémico, para comprender al sistema familiar, cuando uno de sus miembros, consume. Para lograr el cumplimiento de estos objetivos, se realizó una revisión bibliográfica acerca del enfoque sistémico, modelo ecológico, familia, etapa de la adolescencia, consumo de sustancias psicoactivas (SPA). Se analizaron datos estadísticos a nivel internacional, en el ámbito nacional y departamental. También se exploraron estudios de personas que se encontraban en proceso de rehabilitación, desde el modelo ecológico y han evidenciado resultados alentadores en su estilo de vida. Así que esta revisión de estudios, artículos e investigaciones, permitió concluir que el consumo de SPA, es una problemática que a través de los años va en aumento, y es algo de mayor recurrencia en los adolescentes que oscilan entre los once a los dieciocho años de edad. De igual manera, se identificó que el individuo, la familia, el grupo de pares, la educación, los medios de comunicación y otros sistemas, pueden ser algunos de los factores intrínsecos y extrínsecos que facilitan él que un joven inicie a consumir sustancias psicoactivas.

Authors: González Bedoya Diana Maria
Published: March 2021

Se presentan resultados de la investigación sobre la experiencia de algunas jóvenes universitarias que asumieron la maternidad, la relación de pareja y su formación universitaria. El objetivo fue comprender el impacto socio afectivo y académico de esta experiencia; el método de investigación fue mixto: encuesta socio económica y familiar a 65 estudiantes de preescolar y psicología; entrevistas en profundidad, grupos focales y observación de la interacción de estudiantes con sus hijos/as en la universidad. Se encontró que, fortalecieron sus vínculos afectivos con su familia, sus hijos/as y sus parejas; asumieron funciones maternales y afectivas, dando lugar a una nueva forma de configuración familiar: familias jóvenes sin convivencia porque siguen viviendo con sus familias de origen. Esto es posible gracias al acompañamiento afectivo y económico de sus familias en la crianza y contar espacios íntimos como pareja. El riesgo de deserción femenina aumenta, si no tienen apoyo de la universidad.

Published: March 2021

Artículo de Revisión sobre las masculinidades, desde los abordajes conceptuales e investigativos inscritos en la perspectiva de género y desarrollados en latinoamericana. El texto muestra que en América Latina se ha ido constituyendo un bagaje conceptual propio, en torno a caracterizaciones diversas de las masculinidades y las posibilidades de profundización de los estudios de los hombres y las masculinidades, están correlacionados con la complejidad del concepto, continuamente en proceso de transformación, donde diversas disciplinas de las ciencias humanas y sociales convergen, desestabilizando las categorías de hombre y masculinidades, como hechos naturales, normatizados universalmente y anquilosados desde la ética. Se identifican rutas para orientar y llevar a cabo acciones a favor de la equidad de género. Reconociéndose, que estas acciones pueden apoyar a contribuir al desarrollo del estudio y gestión de las masculinidades, especialmente en las universidades en pro de relaciones justas e igualitarias.

This study was conducted to identify the relationship between the perspective and satisfaction of school sports and games club advisory teachers on the transformational leadership of Senior Assistant Co-curriculum in Secondary schools. This study is a comparative causal study and uses the Group Sampling method involving 550 secondary school teachers in Sarawak. Pearson correlation results r = .796, p <0.05 showed that there was a high and significant relationship between the transformational leadership perspective of the Senior Assistant Co-curriculum with satisfaction among secondary school sports advisory teachers. The charismatic dimension has shown the highest relationship to the satisfaction of sports club and game club advisors and is followed by the dimension of intellectual stimulation as well as inspirational motivation. The dimension of individual judgment has shown the lowest relationship to the satisfaction of sports and game club advisory teachers. Nevertheless, the dimension of individual judgment still has a high relationship with the satisfaction of sports clubs and game club advisors. Thus, transformational leadership is proposed to the Senior Assistant Co-curriculum in secondary schools because it can influence the level of satisfaction of sports club and game club advisors in the implementation of sports activities to achieve school goals and goals.

Published: March 2021

The practice of halal diet in daily life is very important in meeting the demands of religion and also daily life based on Halalan Tayyiban. This food selection, if practiced, can certainly have a profound effect on one's morals. This study aims to identify the moral impact of secondary school students in Brunei Darussalam through the practice of halal nutrition in daily life through four elements of morality, namely morality to oneself, morality to parents, morality to teachers and morality to society. This study uses the design of survey research (Explonatory Research) through quantitative method, which is descriptive by providing a questionnaire to 790 Year 9 secondary school students randomly selected. Overall, these descriptive findings indicate that the four moral elements are at a high level, namely (mean = 4.23, sp = 0.50). In conclusion, good morals can be formed through the practice of halal eating, because with halal eating it will form a clean and pure heart. To further strengthen the practice of halal nutrition in students continuously, it is proposed that halal food education be established in secondary schools in Brunei Darussalam through Islamic religious knowledge subjects. Through halal food education, it will further increase the understanding, practice of students on halal food and at the same time make it a culture in their lives when choosing food. Therefore, by adopting halal diet, one will become a healthier person physically, mentally and spiritually.
Implementation of Maqasid Al-Syariah Contemporary Perspective
Authors:   Kolej Universiti Perguruan Ugama, BRUNEI, Muhammad Amin Abd Rauf
Published: March 2021

Al-Dharūriyyāt al-Khamsah is an important issue in the study of maqasid al-syariah. This has continued to undergo discourse enrichment since al-Juwaini and al-Gazali introduced it. In a sense, scholars from the past to the present have always tried to develop how the mechanism of its application into the real world according to the context of their respective times. Enrichment, innovation, and development of the discourse of the implementation of al-Dharūriyyāt al-Khamsah are considered necessary based on the fact that the needs of modern society are very much different from the needs of society in the past when our scholars discussed this issue. The results show that this matter has been debated in many cases at least the scholarly debate on the arrangement and concept of each item from the five matters. This paper will attempt to introduce the interpretations of contemporary scholars to the mechanism of preserving and defending religion, soul, lineage, intellect, and property.
The Doctrine of Wahdatul Wujud: The Issue of Contamination of the Study of Islamic Sufism with Greek Philosophy
Authors:   Fakulti Usuluddin, KUPU SB, BRUNEI, Haji Jumat Matussein
Published: March 2021

This study discusses the doctrine of wahdatul wujud which sneaks into the discipline of the study of tasawwuf. This doctrine is said to be sourced from India and circulated to the archipelago by the ulemas Hamzah Shamsuddin Fansuri and as-Sumatrani and strengthened through scientific research thesis nowadays seems to part of the doctrine of Islamic scholarship. This situation prompts the author to study the errors of this doctrine in an effort to defend the purity of monotheism from the pollution done through tasawwuf. The study found that this doctrine uses the verses of mutasyabihat in the interpretation of the Qur’an to adapt to the will of wahdatul wujud which all lead to the incarnation of the essence of Allah Ta’ala in all beings that is an understanding that contradicts the belief in the nature of the twenty beliefs of Ahli Sunnah Wal Jamaah. Thus, the doctrine of wahdatul wujud is pollution of aqeedah thinking which is actually not related to the discipline of the study of tasawwuf according to the teachings of Islam.

Published: March 2021

Introducción. El avance de la cirugía torácica abierta a cirugía torácica asistida por vídeo por tres puertos, y sus posteriores efectos en la recuperación de los pacientes, conllevó al desarrollo de la técnica por un solo puerto, que ha mostrado beneficios en el postoperatorio. El objetivo de este estudio fue comparar los resultados postquirúrgicos de los pacientes sometidos a pleurectomía parietal y decorticación pulmonar toracoscópica asistida por video monopuerto y los obtenidos por toracotomía convencional, en una clínica de cuarto nivel, entre 2016 y 2019.

Métodos. Estudio descriptivo, en el que se incluyeron 79 pacientes llevados a pleurectomía parietal y decorticación pulmonar por toracoscopia asistida por vídeo monopuerto y 25 pacientes operados por toracotomía convencional. Se evaluaron variables sociodemográficas, clínicas y postoperatorias. Se utilizaron las pruebas de Chi2 o de Fisher y las pruebas t de Student y Mann Whitney.

Resultados. La mediana de edad fue menor en el grupo de pacientes operados por toracotomía convencional (28 años, RIC: 26–48, p=0,0005). No hubo diferencia en los tiempos quirúrgicos. Se encontró menor intensidad del dolor y disminución en los días con tubo de tórax, uso de antibióticos, días de UCI y días de estancia hospitalaria en el grupo de pacientes operados por toracoscopia asistida por vídeo monopuerto (p<0,05). ><0,05).

Discusión. Este estudio refuerza la tendencia de mejores resultados postquirúrgicos, menos días de uso del tubo de tórax, uso de antibióticos, necesidad de UCI y días de estancia hospitalaria general con la técnica asistida por vídeo monopuerto comparado con la toracotomía abierta convencional.

Development of a Learning Model for Large Class Cohorts to Strengthen Learning Outcomes of Students Based on Differentiated Instruction
Authors:   Kingston University London (UK), Muppala Siva PR , Chandramohan Balasubramanyam ,   University of London (UK)
Published: March 2021

We propose a new approach to classroom learning based on sequential numeral-division. It builds on the concept of trichotomy – division of students based on creamy-level, middle-level and weaker-level students -- proposed by the present authors. A sequenced series of formative assessments can map student progress and achievement, particularly in the case of weaker students. The idea behind the development of this model is to study if weak students perform better on critical-thinking tests in a collaborative learning setting rather than when they study individually. We propose a mathematical model to measure group activity/achievement, which is a complex function of several parameters. We collect data on different parameters for validation of the model in the near future.

Validation of a simple hypoplastic constitutive model for overconsolidated clays
Authors: wang shun , Wu Wei
Published: March 2021

Hypoplastic constitutive models are able to describe history dependence using a single nonlinear tensorial function with a set of parameters. A hypoplastic model including a structure tensor for consolidation history was introduced in our previous paper (Wang and Wu in Acta Geotechnica, 2020, https://doi.org/10.1007/s11440-020-01000-z). The present paper focuses mainly on the model validation with experiments. This model is as simple as the modified Cam Clay model but with better performance. The model requires five parameters, which are easy to calibrate from standard laboratory tests. In particular, the model is capable of capturing the unloading behavior without introducing loading criteria. Numerical simulations of element tests and comparison with experiments show that the proposed model is able to reproduce the salient features of normally consolidated and overconsolidated clays.
Coordinated condemnation in women's intrasexual competition
Authors: Ayers Jessica Daphne , Goetz Aaron Taylor
Published: March 2021

Here, we identify a novel reason why women are often criticized and condemned for (allegedly) sexually permissive behavior, such as their choice of dress. Combining principles from coordinated condemnation and sexual economics theory, we developed a model of competition that accounts for women’s competition in the absence of mating-relevant advantages. We hypothesized and found that women collectively condemn other women who appear to be sexually permissive. Study 1 (N = 712) demonstrated that women perceive a rival more negatively when she is showing cleavage, and these negative perceptions are ultimately driven by the inference that “provocatively” dressed women are more likely to have one-night stands. Study 2 (N = 341) demonstrated that women criticize and condemn provocatively dressed women, even when they are not direct sexual rival (e.g., her boyfriend’s sister). Our findings suggest that more research is needed to fully understand women’s intrasexual competition in the absence of mating-relevant cues.
Natural language syntax complies with the free-energy principle
Authors: Murphy Elliot , Holmes Emma , Friston Karl
Published: March 2021

Natural language syntax yields an unbounded array of hierarchically structured expressions. We claim that these are used in the service of active inference in accord with the free-energy principle (FEP). While conceptual advances alongside modelling and simulation work have attempted to connect speech segmentation and linguistic communication with the FEP, we extend this program to the underlying computations responsible for generating syntactic objects. We argue that recently proposed principles of economy in language design—such as “minimal search” criteria from theoretical syntax—adhere to the FEP. This affords a greater degree of explanatory power to the FEP—with respect to higher language functions—and offers linguistics a grounding in first principles with respect to computability. We show how both tree-geometric depth and a Kolmogorov complexity estimate (recruiting a Lempel–Ziv compression algorithm) can be used to accurately predict legal operations on syntactic workspaces, directly in line with formulations of variational free energy minimization. This is used to motivate a general principle of language design that we term Turing–Chomsky Compression (TCC). We use TCC to align concerns of linguists with the normative account of self-organization furnished by the FEP, by marshalling evidence from theoretical linguistics and psycholinguistics to ground core principles of efficient syntactic computation within active inference.
Do generous unemployment benefits facilitate transition into more-secure labour market positions? Insights from a multilevel latent Markov model
Authors: Otto Adeline , Lukac Martin
Published: March 2021

A large body of research suggests that generous welfare provisions for jobseekers create a disincentive to work. Other scholars argue that generous benefits can reduce unemployment by serving as a job-search subsidy. One caveat in this literature is that, when testing the two hypotheses, many scholars conceive of labour markets as homogeneous entities or they theoretically assume a certain insider/outsider divide. In this article, we claim that the employment effect of generous benefits varies between labour market segments. Analysing EU-SILC panel data of 27 European countries, we find that more-generous unemployment cash benefits enhance the transition from unemployment into more-secure work while discouraging transition into less-secure work in terms of temporal, economic and organisational security. Contrary to existing research, welfare generosity is measured by aggregated information on individual benefit receipt. Labour market segments are identified by latent class analysis and transitions between segments are estimated by Multilevel Latent Markov Models.
Communication, Differentiation and the Evolution of World Society
Authors: Holzer Boris
Published: March 2021

The history of globalization is intertwined with the history of communication technologies. From a sociological perspective, innovations and developments of both mass media and symbolically generalized media shape the structure of social contacts. Concerning the nexus between globalization and communication, I distinguish three analytically distinct yet partially overlapping phases of globalization: In a first phase, communication became universal by incorporating the globe into networks of exchange, power and belief. In a second phase, communication became instantaneous by means of telecommunication. In a third phase, increasing differentiation within subsystems of society created incentives to communicate across the globe. In their combination, these processes have resulted in the fusion of horizons of meaningful action into a singular global frame of reference. However, that does not imply uniformity since that global frame of frame has also institutionalized a preference for continuous change and variation.

The present article reports the effects of school principals’ integrative leadership behavior, including transformational and instructional components, on teachers’ data use. Results of a structural equation model indicate signifi cant positive direct and indirect eff ects on teachers’ use of various data. Total eff ects seem to be mainly mediated by teachers’ cooperation activities.
Mathematical evaluations of development and use of western countries` military capacity (on the example of Germany)
Authors:   INION RAN, Trunov Philipp
Published: March 2021

We can face the fact that the factor of military power has been gaining increasing influence in the world politics. In this regard one of key tasks of international relations` studies is the exploration of armed forces` building of the countries in the dynamics. The creating a three-dimensional picture of these processes is difficult without the use of mathematical indicators, which show the key features and “narrow places” of the development and the usage of war machines’ potential of the key countries in the world arena. In this article the focal case of these studies with the usage of mathematical assessments is the Bundeswehr. The reason of the given choice is the changing German role and place in the Euro-Atlantic community and the world arena as the whole. Germany has been trying to become the status of full-fare world power. One of the inherent features of this process is the growing of the Bundeswehr`s potential that had begun in the second half of 2010-s and has had the perspective by the middle 2030-s. The article presents mathematical indicators that allow to show a more voluminous assessment of the progress of building the Bundeswehr's potential and German military budget (both in general and in terms of articles of spending and other specific indicators) in comparison with other largest NATO member states. The research paper also examines the indicators that make it possible to “highlight” the peculiarities of the Bundeswehr’s usage outside and inside the NATO zone of responsibility as well as issues the evolution of the foreign (allied) military presence on the territory of the FRG. The author tries to conclude the generalizations of German “war machine” development, basing on 11 mathematical indicators, 6 of which introduced into scientific circulation for the first time.
The Soviet past and party competition: using quantitative methods

The article analyses the place of the Soviet past issues in the interparty discussion in contemporary Russia. The methodology of the study is based on the cleavage theory and the issue dimensions theory which consider confrontation as the engine of the political life. The lists of issues and most active participants are formed on the base of issue salience and issue ownership criteria. Factor analysis of party positions on these issues revealed two divisions: ‘Communists vs Anticommunists’ and ‘Liberals vs Statists’. Factor loadings of these divisions are compared with parties' factor loadings in political dimensions on a wider range of issues: three main ones (systemic, authoritarian-democratic, socioeconomic) and seven additional – in three issues domains: domestic policy, social and economic policy, systemic domain (international relations + worldviews). It is detected that the ‘Communists vs Anticommunists’ division correlates well with the main socioeconomic dimension and its subtype ‘Communists vs Liberals’, but most strongly – with a sub-dimension ‘Soviet traditionalists vs Progressives’ from the systemic domain. The ‘Liberals vs Statists’ division appeared to correlate closely with the main authoritarian-democratic dimension, but much more – with the subtype ‘Liberals vs Loyalists’ from the domestic policy issue domain. It is concluded that the divisions on the issues of the Soviet past easily fit into the picture of political dimensions and even get lost in it. Comparison of divisions over the Soviet past with electoral cleavages shows that these issues are not very important for the mass mind. High correlation coefficients are devalued by high p-levels, indicating that there is a typical “third factor” effect in the case.

Two types of leaching solution namely; aqua-regia and 1MH2SO4 were investigated for the leaching of K(I) from incineration ash of chicken dropping (IACD), in this study. SOJR and Na(I)-SOJR adsorbents were prepared from orange juice residue for the adsorption of K(I) from IACD leached liquor, which was compared with READF-(PG) and 200CT resin. The characterization of IACD leaching was done in EDX and FTIR spectroscopic techniques. Aqua-regia solution completely dissolved IACD and all the adsorbents. One molar sulphuric acid (1MH2SO4) solution was optimized for effective leaching of K(I) from the IACD sample. SOJR, Na(I)-SOJR, and 200CT adsorbed K(I) from leached liquor whereas K(I) was insignificantly adsorbed onto READF-(PG). The desorption of adsorbed K(I) could be successfully done by H2SO4 solution for recovery and adsorbent regeneration for further usage. From comparisons, Na(I)-SOJR investigated in this study was found to be equally effective with a commercially available cation exchanger (200CT resin). Therefore, a new method of H2SO4 leaching of IACD followed by adsorption using Na(I)-SOJR investigated in this work can be an economic, environmentally benign, and promising technique for the recovery of K(I) ion from leach liquor of IACD.
Obstetrics Outcomes: A Comparison between Birthing Center and Conventional Labor Ward
Authors: Kafle Deepak Raj
Published: March 2021

Introduction: Birthing Centers (BC) are increasingly accepted worldwide as an alternate low cost place of birth. The concept is especially relevant for developing countries with limited resources and constraints regarding availability of specialists and hospital beds. The various studies have concluded that when proper risk analyses are conducted and referral rules followed, there is no evidence of increased maternal or perinatal risk at BC compared to standard hospital deliveries.

Materials and Methods: This was a prospective, observational and comparative hospital based study done at Paropakar Maternity and Women’s Hospital (PMWH),Kathmandu. The study was conducted on pregnant women without any known risk factors for complications who were admitted in BC and labor ward (LW) for delivery. Details on mode of delivery, genital tract status, Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) and neonatal outcomes were collected. Descriptive data analysis was done using SPSS.

Results: Out of 5132 deliveries, 25.3% had no known risk factor and hence were eligible for study; no statistically significant difference was observed between BC & LW in relation to mode of delivery, perineal trauma, PPH and neonatal outcomes; however, practice of episiotomy was significantly less frequent in BC.

Conclusion: When proper risk analyses are conducted and referral rules followed, there is no evidence of adverse obstetrics outcome at BC as compared to standard hospital deliveries. Triaging of low risk pregnancy to a BC is a viable strategy, especially in a resource poor country. This lessens the burden in standard maternity unit so that specialists will be able to provide a quality care to high risk pregnancies.

Introduction: Endodontics is specialty field, but the majority of endodontic treatment in Pokhara is provided by the general dental practitioners. The aim of this study was to assess the practice of endodontic treatment protocols among general dental practitioners in Pokhara, Nepal.

Materials and Methods: A cross sectional questionnaire based study was conducted among all the general dental practitioners working in various government, private hospital and clinic of Pokhara. Information about the materials and techniques used in endodontic treatment was collected and descriptive statistical analysis was done.

Results: Out of 89 respondents, only 82 completely filled the questionnaires which were included in the study. Most general dental practitioners (96.34%) regularly treat single rooted endodontic cases. Only 10.97% occasionally use rubber dam during endodontic treatment. Most general dental practitioners (96.34%) used radiographic technique for working length determination. Ninety two percent used stainless steel hand files and step back was the choice of technique by 90.24%. Sodium hypochlorite irrigation and calcium hydroxide intra canal medicaments were used by 93.9% and 98.78% of general dental practitioners respectively. 75.6% used zinc oxide eugenol as root canal sealer and 95.12% obturated root canals with lateral compaction technique. The common complication encountered was mid treatment pain. They seem to overuse antibiotics in cases requiring endodontic therapy. Only 52.43% used autoclave for sterilization of endodontic files. About 92.68% felt the need of further endodontic training and 74.39% preferred post graduate program.

Conclusion: This study indicates that many general dental practitioners of Pokhara are not following well acknowledged endodontic quality guidelines; hence there is a need for further endodontic training.

Sturge-Weber syndrome (SWS) is a rare congenital vascular disorder characterized by facial capillary malformation, associated capillary-venous malformations affecting the brain and eye along with calcification in the occipital or frontoparietal region. Occipital and posterior parietal lobes are the common site of involvement in SWS. Posterior fossa involvement is a rare finding with very few number of reported cases. Contrast enhanced MRI is considered as the gold standard for the diagnosis of SWS demonstrating the enhancement of pial angioma
