Re-imagine Pickering here: a vision for Pickering Nuclear Park
Authors: Marquis Taylor Alicia Lena
Published: May 2021

In 2024, all commercial operations at the Pickering Nuclear Generation Station cease and the station will begin its decommissioning process. Ontario Power Generation is currently looking developing a repurposing strategy for the site throughout the decommissioning process, which is expected to be complete by 2064. This project presents a unique opportunity to re-imagine the future of this site, while setting a precedent for the reuse of nuclear sites and facilities once they have reached the end of their life cycle – an issue that will be more prevalent in the coming years. This project proposes a vision for the site to be transformed into parkland using ecological restoration practices, and establishing a Centre for Clean Energy Technology. Using design as a form of research, the project was informed by background research that included a review of existing literature on post-industrial site redevelopment, precedent studies, and site reconnaissance.
Adaptive Planning and Climate Focused Evaluation in an Era of Evolving Local Governance
Authors: Coates William P.
Published: May 2021

The interconnected relationship between cities and global climate change has led to the creation of a growing number of municipal climate change adaptation plans. Currently, there exist relatively few well known criteria on the best ways to evaluate these documents following their implementation.

This study begins with a review of evaluation literature and policy reports drawn from four principle agencies considered to be at the forefront of climate change adaptation planning in Canada. Findings are then used to explore how the Cities of Toronto and New York have successfully incorporated evaluation criteria into their adaptation plans. Lessons are presented for both planning practitioners and local governments concerning the implementation of successful climate-focused evaluation criteria. Overall findings suggest that numerous tools exist for evaluating adaptation plans including important performance-based approaches. Agency commitment and persons assigned to conduct the evaluation as well as integration into an ongoing planning process were also found to be key success factors while evaluation outcomes were found to reflect the resources and expertise available given the present voluntary nature of climate plans.
The cost of building for the future: the reconciliation of sustainable housing issues in Toronto
Authors: Erlichman. Paul Adam
Published: May 2021

Although some green housing elements have become more commonplace in residential renovations in Canada, the undertaking of complete green retrofits is relatively uncommon. This paper explores the barriers to green retrofits, such as affordability and bureaucracy, in the urban context of the City of Toronto. The research was informed by one main case study, one supplementary case study, and six interviews with sustainable housing experts. The research has yielded nine recommendations that are directed towards three levels of government and related public and private housing organizations. These recommendations have been made in the hopes of making sustainable housing more ubiquitous in Toronto.
Questioning density : an appraisal of the theoretical and empirical basis for smart growth in the Toronto Census Metropolitan Area
Authors: Schachar Samuel
Published: May 2021

Smart Growth-densification is an essential element of the local planning ethic. However, little research has been undertaken on impacts of densification in the Toronto Census Metropolitan Area (CMA). Accordingly, the first component of this MRP presents a critique of Smart Growth theory that is divided into two strands. The first strand identifies four methodological limitations in the foundational density research upon which Smart Growth theory is based. The second strand concludes that much of reviewed density research has been over-interpreted and appropriated to serve the Smart Growth rationale.

To appraise the empirical basis for Smart Growth in the Toronto CMA, four hypotheses are tested using a cross-sectional and quasi-longitudinal design. Although 2006 census tract (CT) density and CT densification (1986-2006) demonstrated a relationship to sustainable outcomes, the nature of these did not conform to predictions of Smart Growth theory. The study also indicated that the relationship between density and outcomes was largely non-linear and partially attenuated by household-level factors. When all sections of this MRP are taken into account, the basis for Smart Growth-densification, according to its present definition, appears increasingly tenuous.
Getting From Here To There - Mainstreaming Wildlife Crossing Structures Through Transdisciplinary Design Approaches To Collaborative Planning
Authors: Hack Arleigh
Published: May 2021

The effectiveness of wildlife crossing structures in mitigating the impacts of roads on species and ecosystems have been well-documented in scientific literature. Despite this, there are challenges associated with translating ecological knowledge into policy and practice. The study examines the planning process for wildlife crossing infrastructure using a case study in the context of the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area and explored the potential of transdisciplinary collaboration and design thinking to enhance landscape connectivity. The study followed an iterative design research method incorporating knowledge from literature review, policy analysis and subject matter professional expertise derived through participant observation through work with the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority. This supported the development of a conceptual framework for actionable research to encourage the co-creation of practical knowledge and specific planning solutions. In addition, the study contributes valuable insight to the broader literature of sustainable landscape planning, road ecology and transportation

The literature suggests that homeownership contributes to local economies and quality of life and is an important part of creating vibrant societies. This research is important as planning plays a vital role in representing those who cannot represent themselves and ensuring that a high quality of life is accessible to everyone. It explores the affordable housing issue in Mississauga and identifies the programs that currently exist to alleviate affordable housing issues. The
recommendations are intended to guide Mississauga in the next steps of alleviating affordable homeownership issues. The recommendations provided are transient and can be used as a template for other municipalities in the Greater Golden Horseshoe Area alleviate similar issues.
Heritage Church Conservation in Rural Southern Ontario: an Analysis of Outcomes in Three Rural Municipalities
Authors: Neilson Michelle
Published: May 2021

Across Ontario, churches are closing their doors as congregants and clergy members decline. These closures leave a number of surplus churches that face abandonment, demolition or re-use. Retaining surplus churches presents a challenge for heritage planners and communities who wish to conserve these unique, aging, landmarks. While a great deal has been written on the challenges of church conservation in urban areas, very little is known about the pattern of church conservation in rural areas. In this study, Anglican, Roman Catholic, Presbyterian, Baptist and United Churches are inventoried in the municipalities of Chatham-Kent, Prince Edward County and the City of Kawartha Lakes to determine the most common outcome of former rural churches. The findings show that adaptive re-use is by far the most common outcome, followed by demolition and vacancy. In addition, the findings indicate low municipal heritage designation rates among rural churches even though they represent some of the oldest architectural landmarks in Ontario. This study calls on heritage planners and communities to plan for the future of their rural religious heritage to ensure that churches of historic and community value are both conserved and re-used for future generations to come.
Make Art, not Sprawl: Using Form-Based Codes to Create Complete, Compact, and Livable Suburban Communities
Authors: Cai Chi Chi
Published: May 2021

North American cities are experiencing rapid rates of urbanization and development, and it has become evident that the conventional Euclidean zoning model has failed to guide growth in a healthy, livable, and sustainable direction. This model, along with existing municipal fiscal policies and social preferences, enables the production of built forms that are conducive to sprawl. This MRP focuses on form-based codes (FBCs), and how this planning tool can be used to help combat sprawl and achieve the successful development of Smart Growth communities within a suburban context. An understanding of the existing literature, best practices, and analysis of the existing built form in the Fleetwood Town Center neighbourhood of the City of Surrey, British Columbia will help to justify the need for a more flexible zoning model. This research has shaped a set of recommendations to the City of Surrey to aid them in the development and implementation of their own FBCs.
Stormwater management: municipal policies in Ontario for managing rain where it falls through green infrastructure
Authors: Coutinho Wayne Savio
Published: May 2021

This research explores the state of practice for managing rain where it falls in southern Ontario through green infrastructure policies. A literature review and first hand experience from municipalities provided the understanding of the issues to wide‐spread adoption. Stormwater runoff is a significant issue within urban settings, contributing to localized riverine and/or basement flooding that impacts municipal infrastructure, residences, and environmental quality of waterways. Traditional grey infrastructure, an engineered approach of collection and treatment facilities, addresses concerns with combined sewer overflow (CSO), but is not an effective system for Stormwater Management (SWM), evident by the increase in flooding and pollution from intensified rain events, with climate change.

Supported by evidence in published literature over the last decade, Low Impact Development (LID) principles have demonstrated effective results for cold climates, provided life costs‐analysis, and a planning framework to determine suitable placement for installations. Co-benefits of Green Stormwater Infrastructure (GSI) are especially valued such as building great communities to live in with "high functioning" urban green spaces. This evidence suggests that managing stormwater runoff locally is a more cost effective and sustainable than end‐of‐pipe solutions. The study revealed best practices and lessons learned from municipalities implementing GSI for the Right‐of‐Way (ROW) though “Green Streets” and on private lands through LID to manage rain where it falls. In Ontario, GSI is at an early adoption stage. The findings support a planning rationale for a coordinated approach to implement, finance, and operate GSI programs for both private lands and in the public ROW for SWM.
Using Ontario's Development Permit Systems To Implement Metrolinx’s Mobility Hubs In The Greater Golden Horseshoe
Authors: Keenan Andrew S.
Published: May 2021

Through Metrolinx, the province of Ontario seeks to change the sprawling, car dependent character of The Greater Toronto and Hamilton Areas by introducing a vast network of rapid transit routes along a series of corridors, linked by a series of nodes, called mobility hubs. Following Smart Growth principles, these hubs should be buttressed by transit supportive land-use regulations, but the current land-use planning framework in the region makes such changes difficult. By implementing a little used tool in Ontario's
Planning for the grey tsunami housing shock in the city of Toronto
Authors: Shedletsky Jaime
Published: May 2021

The City of Toronto is undergoing a significant demographic shift as a result of the aging ‘Baby Boom’ generation, the first of whom turned 65 years old in 2011. By 2031, the seniors population in Toronto is expected to almost double, increasing to 22 percent of the total population (Hemson Consulting Ltd, 2012) from only 14 percent in 2011 (Statistics Canada, 2011). This will produce a number of housing related planning challenges for the City, as aging Boomers are expected to demand an increasing amount of housing. This estimate is used to approximate the potential housing limitations in 2021 and 2031. As the largest seniors demand is projected to be for ground-related private dwellings, whose supply is physically constrained, the report will investigate the benefits of developing retirement homes to meet the growing seniors housing demand. The two-fold challenge to increase the stock and capture rate of retirement homes in Toronto will be examined. Creative mechanisms will be proposed for the City to incentivize retirement homes development and for potential developers to attract Boomer seniors to retirement homes.

Analyzing the effect of mid-rise development on retail vibrancy in the Beach
Authors: Golovkin Anna
Published: May 2021

In order to meet provincially-mandated growth targets, the City of Toronto has embraced mid-rise infill development along transit-supported avenues as the preferred approach to intensification and reurbanization. In the Beach neighbourhood, growing development pressure along Queen Street East within the Woodbine Beach Precinct has resulted in a departure from fine grain retail, which is still prominent in the eastern part of the neighbourhood. Using a set of key retail vibrancy indicators, this study explores how this new built form is affecting retail businesses on an important historic main street. Implications regarding the existing retail planning approach are discussed, as well as recommendations for strengthening city-wide retail policy, and in turn retail vibrancy in the Beach neighbourhood.

What's Up? Creating the Next Generation of Engaged Urban Citizens: Examining the High School Geography Curriculum in Ontario for Education on Urban Planning Issues
Authors: Perlman Evan
Published: May 2021

The consequences of planning issues like suburban sprawl are well-known in academia and the planning profession, however there is a disconnect between this knowledge and the actions of decision-makers, as well as, the populations who elect them. It is argued that if students in Ontario were better informed or knowledgeable about urban planning issues within the high school curricula, then there could be a stronger framework for which to improve upon planning urban regions according to best practices and principles. A focus is placed on geography education and the provincial geography curriculum due to it having the strongest potential for inclusion of this topic. Through a literature review and semi-structured interviews with educators and planners, this paper examines the current geography curriculum, best practices, as well as the barriers to incorporating urban planning issues into high school geography classrooms. Lastly, recommendations are provided for stakeholders in the planning and geography education professions on how to overcome these barriers.
Barriers to Access: Food Banks in Outer-ring GTA Suburbs
Authors: Luyt Georgia
Published: May 2021

Poverty in Greater Toronto Area suburbs is growing at an alarming rate, particularly in the wake of the 2008 recession. One associated outcome is a dramatic increase in residents’ use of food banks. Suburban planning and design makes car ownership necessary to navigate these areas. How, then, do low-income residents address the barrier of transportation when accessing a food bank if they do not have a car? The investigation used qualitative research including a literature review, collection and analysis of data on food banks in the GTA, and interviews with food bank managers and front line workers. The results revealed that reduced access to a car, hours of operation of food banks, and the cultural difference between food bank users and donors in the suburbs are key areas for both long term and short term strategies that could ease the burden of transportation for food bank participants.

As housing prices continue to rise and become less attainable to low and medium income earners, innovative strategies to provide new supply of affordable housing will need to be implemented.

The paper outlines a variety of housing solutions that have already had success in the Vancouver area and elsewhere. Case studies are brought together in this document to highlight the potential that combining and replicating successful housing models can have for Vancouver. Through creative solutions and strong partnerships, Vancouver can become a world leader in innovative housing provision in the face of extreme market conditions and land constraints.
Get Up and Go: Evaluating Station Area Factors affecting A.M. Commuter Rail Boardings in the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area
Authors: Procter Graham Lee
Published: May 2021

This research evaluates built form and demographic factors of GO Transit commuter rail station areas that contribute to ridership and utilization of existing services in the A.M. peak period using biannual GO Rail ridership information from the Spring of 2010 to Spring of 2015. In order to identify predictors of ridership growth, four regression models were estimated that evaluated factors affecting cross-sectional ridership, cross-sectional utilization of capacity,
station-level utilization at each time period, and station-level year-over-year utilization growth. Results indicate that the strongest predictors of ridership, utilization, and growth were station parking capacity and household density of the surrounding area. This suggests potential for tensions in developing GO-supportive station-area land use policy strategies focused on either expanding station-area parking capacity or station-area residential intensification. The station level utilization model produced a priority list of future service increases on GO Rail corridors based on existing capacity and ridership.

BIA2.0: Advancing the role of business improvement areas in community planning
Authors: Millar Sarah
Published: May 2021

This paper specifically looks at the role Business Improvement Areas (BIAs) fulfill in both urban and rural contexts in order to characterize a perceived trend toward broad based community planning and local economic development work. The method draws on literature, award winning case examples, primary interview findings and an examination of planning tools to determine BIAs position within the planning framework, and advance recommendations for a BIA2.0 agenda. The findings confirm BIAs position in community planning and local economic development work, and outlines opportunities to advance their role as community building agents as part of the BIA2.0 agenda. Ultimately, the research highlights the BIA as a unique relationship shared between municipalities and business owners. It presents a rare opportunity for planners and policy makers to harness BIAs entrepreneurial spirit, market knowledge and social capital in order to implement policy objectives from the ground up.
Canadian smart cities: health remedies, side effects and hard to swallow pills
Authors: Ramsaroop Andrew
Published: May 2021

This research paper investigates the ways in which health was talked about and addressed in Infrastructure Canada’s Smart City Challenge. Using the Smart City Challenge applications as the basis of the research, and two as in depth case studies. The main critiques of Smart City Technologies, as well as the concept of Co Creation, and a Performance Measurement Framework were used to identify if the applications could improve, how and if citizens were engaged meaningfully, and where in the healthcare system will the proposed technologies make measurable improvements. Findings from the study indicate there needs to be: greater protections for individual privacy, greater resident engagement/involvement, having health and wellbeing as core nets of a smart city challenge, and greater protections for indigenous data sovereignty. If these recommendations are taken into account, they will lead to more robust applications in the next iteration Smart City Challenge, and will provide invaluable steps towards greater national data guidelines.
Stimulating the rental market : federal and provincial housing policy from 1935-2019
Authors: Chapman Tessa
Published: May 2021

[Para. 1 of Introduction]
The Canadian Rental Housing Index outlines that in 2018, Ontario’s rental market is as unhealthy as it has ever been (Canadian Rental Housing Index, n.d.). This is due to the fact that the supply of rental housing has not kept up with the growing demand for this tenure type. From 2011-2016, the average rate of renter formation1 was approximately 34,000 renter households per year (Urbanation,
2019). During this same period approximately 5,000 purpose-built rental units were completed CMHC, 2018). This misalignment between the supply and demand of rental housing has resulted in extremely low vacancy rates. In 2017, the vacancy rate in Ontario hit 1.6%, the lowest it has been since 2000 (CMHC, 2017). It is important to recognize that the roots of this problem in Ontario reach back further than the last ten years, but the problems have become increasingly acute during this time frame.
Fostering High-Rise Housing Community Resilience in Toronto: A Framework and Discussion Guide
Authors: Mason Grant
Published: May 2021

High-rise towers characterize Toronto across a low-rise landscape. These towers represent a unique form for North America, and bring a series of challenges for future sustainability targets. Following storms in 2013, the topic of resilience has emerged as an important aspect of long-term sustainability. Storms are increasing in severity making them more difficult to resist. How can residents in high-rise buildings prepare for an uncertain future and demonstrate resilience in the face of hazards? What do condominium boards and apartment managers need to have prepared to mitigate the damage caused by a disaster? This paper analyzes existing literature of high-rise sustainability and desirability, recognizing these as important foundations for social cohesion (Uzzel, Pol, & Badenas, 2002) under the assumption that engagement and partnerships are central to community resilience (Chandra et al., 2011). The final product is a discussion guide for groups aiming to assess and develop their respective community’s resilience.
The role of ethnic malls in placemaking: a case study of First Markham Place
Authors: Liu Philip
Published: May 2021

This study examines the role and effectiveness of suburban, ethnic shopping centres in providing an alternative to public space. It is a response to the suburb's lack of good public spaces, and the resulting lack of community and sense of place, and is informed by the development of 'ethnoburbs' across North America. This study explores themes revealed by both literature and a series of field observations and intercept interview. A case study analyzing First Markham Place and how its mall patrons use the space revealed implications regarding the effectiveness of these malls as public spaces. The author found that the mall's role as a community hub provides opportunities to satisfy both practical and innate desires for cultural goods, services, and co-ethnic interactions, encourages a 'public life' not seen in conventional suburban malls, and creates a unique sense of place for members of the target ethnic community as well as non-members.

The intensification of the outer suburbs and the impact on travel behaviour: an analysis of York Region
Authors: Grove Paul
Published: May 2021

In an effort to retrofit outer suburban municipalities to be more supportive of public transit, and less oriented toward private auto, intensification is being practiced throughout the Greater Golden Horseshoe. York Region, an outer suburban municipality undergoing intensification, has been selected for analysis. This report studies TTS (Transportation Tomorrow Survey) data using multiple linear regression, as well as comparative analysis to evaluate the effect an increase in density has upon transit modal split. Findings align strongly with reviewed literature. Findings are that while density and transit mode split are positively statistically correlated, the impact density is estimated to have on transit mode split is minimal. This suggests intensifying the outer suburbs may have the reverse effect of increasing auto traffic at the expense of small increases in transit mode split. A series of recommendations regarding transportation policies for outer suburban municipalities are then provided to coexist with intensification policies.

Vocational (vocational and technical) education is a component of the Ukrainian system of education, where a person can acquire knowledge, skills and abilities in a particular occupation. A prerequisite for the development of such education is to ensure that its content corresponds to the needs and challenges of modern society. It responds to the demands of the labor market in the need for personnel for the economy and at the same time remains an important part of the education system. The article presents the results of a study of the peculiarities of the implementation of programs for the development of vocational (vocational and technical) education institutions. It is established that a major barrier to the development of such programs is a lack of awareness among managers and teachers of the organization and planning of project activities and cooperation with donors, attracting crowdfunding platforms for additional funding sources. It was found that vocational (vocational and technical) education institutions need additional funding to update and modernize the material, computer and software facilities, as well as improved mechanisms to encourage teachers to adopt innovative learning technologies and students to succeed. Prospects for the development of institutions based on crowdfunding as an effective tool for attracting additional financing from alternative sources are outlined. The need for a broad educational campaign among the heads of vocational (vocational and technical) education institutions on the dissemination of information on these opportunities and practical measures to develop the necessary skills in the use of crowdfunding tools is justified.

Gender Equity In Hadith Literature: An Analysis Of The Contemporary Hadith Curriculum Of Madrasah Aliyah In Indonesia
Authors: Arifin Tajul
Published: May 2021

This paper stimulated by the fact that Muslim women participation in education in Indonesia is still lower than in neighbouring countries. This condition has been influenced by the weak support of Hadith Curriculum of Madrasah Aliyah toward gender equity. This condition has been miss understood by some scholars that Hadith does not support gender equity. The aims of this paper are to give a clear picture of gender equity in Hadith literature and analyse the content of Hadith Curriculum of Madrasah Aliyah in Indonesia in relation to gender equity support. Data were gained through Hadith literature and Hadith Curriculum of Madrasah Aliyah Year 2013. This study revealed that Hadith strongly support gender equity in all spects of life achieved as in economic, social, and political aspects. In addition, Hadith Curriculum of Madrasah Aliyah does not strongly support the emergence of strong and positive thinking toward gender equity among the students of Madrasah Aliyah who most of them then becoming religious leaders in Indonesian society. The implication of this finding requires us to make changes in the content structure of the Curriculum of Hadith for Madrasah Aliyah in Indonesia.

In this study, virulence factors such as serum resistance, aerobactin iron uptake systems, adhesins (type 1 fimbria, P fimbria, S fimbria, afimbrial adhesins), haemolysine, uropathogenic spesific protein and cytotoxic necrotizing factor in 45 Escherichia coli isolates from dogs and cats with urinary tract and genital system infections, were investigated by both phenotypic methods and molecular methods. In PCR examinations of 45 E. coli, hlyA gene was detected in 73.3% of all isolates. fimH was found in 100%, papC in 71.1%, sfaDE in 82.2%, and afaBC in 0% of the isolates. iucD, traT, usp, cnf1 and cvaC genes were found in 20%, 71.1%, 84.4%, 75.5%, and 11.1% of the isolates, respectively. According to the isolation rate of hlyA and haemolytic activity on blood agar, this virulence factor is commonly seen in these strains and important in these infections especially pathogenesis. İsolates was found to be a high rate positive for usp gene. This result suggested that this strain may have higher infectivity. Cytotoxic necrotizing factor was common and important virulence factor in uropathogenic E. coli and prognosis of infection. However, colisin encoding gene (cvaC) only were detected from 5 of urine samples from dogs. This virulence factor could be important for the urinary tract infections in dogs rather than cats. Haemolysis, type 1 fimbriae, P fimbriae, S fimbriae, cnf, serum resistance, uropathogenic specific protein were detected at high rates by molecular method. In E. coli strains isolated from dogs, virulence factors were found to be higher than cat isolates.

Published: May 2021

Despite of many previous studies related to conceptual metaphor have been conducted since George Lakoff and Mark Johnson have introduced their work known as Metaphor We Live By in 1980, but none of them have analysed oral discourse as their corpus. This study aims to reveal the concept of death belonging to one of the Indonesian indigenous tribes located in Sulawesi Island called Kajang tribe. The Kajang tribe has an ancient oral discourse which delivers orally from generation to generation known as Pasang ri Kajang, and it is full of metaphorical expressions. This present study employs the conceptual metaphor theory (CMT) introduced by Lakoff and Johnson (1980, 2003), and the approach of conceptual metaphor analysis (CMA) by Charteris Black (2004) to reveal the concept of death found in Pasang ri Kajang. This qualitative research obtained the data through semi-structured interviews, field observation, recording, and note-taking. The conceptual metaphor techniques comprising three CMA stages, namely identification, interpretation, and explanation, were used for data analysis. The results of the study indicate that the concept of death as found in Pasang ri Kajang is DEATH IS A JOURNEY. This conceptual metaphor gives a detailed description of death as a journey of the soul to the hereafter. This research concludes that people of Kajang believes only good souls are rewarded with eternal life (Karakkang) and extraordinary wealth (Kalumannyang kaluppepeang) in the hereafter (ahera).

The environment is a place where living things carry out their daily activities. Of course, in carrying out these activities, living things need a healthy environment and a comfortable atmosphere. Environmental problems are generally caused by natural events, rapid population growth, overuse of natural resources, industrialization and transportation. One of them is the waste problem. Waste produced by humans has an influence on environmental changes. The implementation of waste management is intended so that waste can be managed properly to create a clean and healthy living environment. This study aims to formulate the best alternative policy as an effort to address the problems of implementing waste management in Lamongan Regency. The research method used is descriptive qualitative method. In formulating policy alternatives using Bridgman and Davies' policy analysis process theory which consists of five stages, namely 1) Formulation of Policy Problems, 2) Formulating Goals and Targets, 3) Identifying Policy Parameters, 4) Finding Policy Alternatives and 5) Deciding Policy Alternatives Selected. The results showed that the implementation of waste management in Lamongan Regency that occurred was a problem of the amount of waste that was increasing from time to time and the amount of waste that was managed could not reach 50% of the total waste. Factors causing the problem are caused by: Inadequate fleet of facilities and infrastructure; Limited budget funds; Inadequate cleaning staff; and the level of public awareness of waste care is still low.

The aim of this study to determine the prevalence of microalbuminuria as well as associated factors in non-diabetic hypertensive patients. Hospital-based cross sectional study. Main outcome of measure is microalbuminuria. A total of 100 nondiabetic hypertensive patients age 18 years without a history of pre-existing kidney disease attending the outpatient department of Community Based Medical College Bangladesh, Mymensingh over a period 6 months from June to December 2014 and who consented and met the criteria were enrolled in this study. A questionnaire including clinical and laboratory data was completed for all cases. The survey data were checked, coded and entered into a SPSS statistical package (Version 11.5). All variables were tested for normal distribution of the data. The data were then cleaned and analyzed using Chi-square (x2) Test, One-Way ANOVA statistics and Binary logistic regression model. Results were considered statistically significant for two-sided P values of <0.05. The overall prevalence of microalbuminuria was 17% of patients (11(64.7%) were male and 6(35.3%) female). The mean age and BMI were 49.2±9.1 years and 23.5±3.8 kg/m2 respectively. There were only 2(2%) patients whose systolic BP and diastolic BP were both well controlled (<140/˂90 mmHg), while normalization rates of either systolic BP (<140 mmHg) or diastolic BP (<90 mmHg) were 10% and 26% respectively. Age 50 years, low HDL, duration of HTN and triglyceride >150 mg/dl were found independent predictors of elevated UAE with ORs being 0.18, 3.9, 0.13 and 0.49 respectively. Microalbuminuria was not uncommon in non-diabetic hypertensive patients and older age, low HDL, high LDL, raised triglyceride and duration of HTN were significant predictors of microalbuminuria. There is an urgent need to screening of microalbuminuria should be mainstreamed into routine investigation and follow-up of patients with HBP.

Hypothyroidism is a common endocrine disorder resulting from decreased secretion of thyroid hormone. The diagnosis of hypothyroidism is suggested from the clinical and laboratory findings. Its occurrence in childhood is rare. Here we present a case report on this disease with rare presentation of abdominal lump and pervaginal bleeding in childhood. A 7 years old girl admitted in tertiary level hospital with abdominal lump and irregular per vaginal bleeding. Abdominal swelling was gradually increasing in size & associated with lower abdominal pain for last 5 months. On examination the girl was moderately anaemic, mildly oedematous, distended lower abdomen and a mass in left iliac region. Her thyroid function test, serum FSH, serum LH, serum Prolactin was done and high FSH, LH, Prolactin levels were found. USG of lower abdomen revealed bulky uterus and bilateral ovarian cysts. MRI of Brain showed feature of pituitary microadenoma. Finally the patient was diagnosed as primary hypothyroidism and bilateral follicular ovarian cyst with pituitary adenoma developed as its consequence. The case is reported for clinical awareness & to share our experience.

A 3 years old immunized girl of consanguineous parents presented abdominal distension with hepatosplenomegaly. She was moderately anemic, moderately wasted and stunted. Neurological examination was normal. Musculoskeletal system examination revealed no abnormality. Diagnosis was supported by typical bone involvement in X-ray film (thin cortex in limb bone) and gaucher cell in the bone marrow and also in the splenic aspiration. There are three subtypes Type1: Non neuropathic form, Type 2: Acute neuropathic form, Type 3: Chronic neuropathic form. However some cases do not fit precisely into one of these categories. All forms of Gaucher disease are autosomal recessively inherited. So, this patient more or less correlates with Gaucher disease type 1. Treatment option for type 1 and 3 include medicine and enzyme replacement therapy, which is usually very effective.
