Authors: Barve D , Dave P , Gulve M , Saquib S , Das G , Sibghatullah M , Chaturvedi S
Published: January 2022

Background and Aims:

Composite resins are among the most popular restorative dental materials because of the strength and esthetic properties. The goal of this study was to assess the effect of commonly consumed beverages on microhardness and color stability of microhybrid (MH) and nanofilled NF) composite resins.

Material and Methods:

240 samples were prepared from the composite material [MH = 120 (material I) and NF = 120 (material II)] and allocated into eight groups of 30 samples. In each group, half of the samples were tested for microhardness and another-half for color stability. After baseline measurements, the samples were immersed in test media, that is, distilled water and beverages (tea, cola, and coffee) for 15 days. Microhardness and color stability measurements were carried out after 15 days to assess the effect of beverages. The color stability and microhardness values were compared and evaluated by analysis of variance (ANOVA) using Tukey's alteration test.

Results:

It was reported that the microhardness decreased for both the materials after immersion in all the beverages. Percentage change in microhardness was considerably higher in material II in comparison to the material I in cola drink. Color change was significantly higher in material II compared to material I in water and coffee. Cola drink caused the maximum change in microhardness among all the beverages and coffee caused the maximum color change among all the beverages.

Conclusion:

Both composite materials (I and II) showed a reduction in microhardness and change in color after immersion in a different type of test media.

Aim:

The study aimed to evaluate the effect on condylar guidance values with casts mounted by facebow transfer (Guichet's point as the third point of reference), Bonwill's, and radiographic method.

Materials and Methods:

The dentulous subject's casts were mounted to a semi-adjustable articulator (Artex Type AR) after facebow transfer with Guichet's point as the third point of reference and also by Bonwill's method. Protrusive records made earlier were utilized to program the right and left side condylar guidance value. Two digital lateral cephalograms were made, one in centric relation, and one in protrusion and the condyles were traced and overlapped. The condylar guidance readings obtained by Bonwill's method, facebow transfer, and lateral cephalometric tracings were compared in this study using the SPSS (Version 17.0 Illinois, Chicago, USA) software.

Results:

The condylar guidance values obtained from Bonwill's and the facebow transfer method (p < 0.001) was lesser than the radiographic method. The values obtained by casts mounted to the Bonwill's method differed significantly (p < 0.001) from the other two methods.

Conclusion:

The values obtained by facebow transfer were closer to the radiographic values whereas the values obtained by Bonwill's method mounting differed markedly.

Published: January 2022

The COVID-19 pandemic has caused people to immobilize to eat out, many industries are closed, the community’s economy is down, and many online food small and medium enterprises (SMEs) have sprung up. One of the areas affected by the COVID-19 pandemic is East Jakarta. The implementation of Sanitation Standard Operational Procedure (SSOP) in online food SMEs requires special attention during the COVID-19 pandemic. This study aims to evaluate food production facilities in online food SMEs. Direct observation using instrument from Indonesian National Agency of Drug and Food Control (BPOM) Number HK.03.1.23.04.12.2207 2012 was conducted. The survey was conducted from May to June 2021 in five sub-districts in East Jakarta, namely Duren Sawit, Matraman, Pulo Gadung, Kampung Makassar, and Cipayung.  Of the 32 SMEs observed, 50% had been established in less than one year. Most of the SMEs owners have secondary and higher education education and sell popular Street food or food.  The survey covers non-compliance in 14 elements of food production facilities. The results show minor disobedience 18.8%, major disobedience 33.3%, serious defiance 25.8%, and critical disobedience 29.9%. In conclusion, major disobedience had the highest percentage, followed by critical, serious, and minor disobedience. Further education in the application of SSOP for online food SMEs should be carried out.
Mobilising sociology of sport for social change beyond the pandemic
Authors: Spaaij Ramon
Published: January 2022

Amid the Covid-19 pandemic, conversations about how to build sport back better are becoming increasingly pronounced. The crisis both deepens inequities and creates opportunity as a new way to configure sport post-pandemic demands to be discovered. The challenge has been thrown down to sociologists to help reimagine and reshape the course of sport. What might such re-enchantment look like? And how might it help realise the sociology of sport’s untapped potential to advance impactful public sociology? This paper explores these questions with a particular focus on sociologists of sport as co-creators of, and actors in, social change. I discuss five issues that I see as being relevant for rethinking and reconfiguring sport beyond the pandemic: (1) reclaiming the ludic and pleasure; (2) rethinking sociality in sport; (3) social inequities and ‘sport for all’; (4) de-/re-centring power in sport for development; and (5) global interdependence and interconnectedness. The insights presented can hopefully make a modest contribution to our collective understanding of transformative practice in and through the sociology of sport in uncertain times.

Published: January 2022

Introduction: Brain abscess (BA)of dental origin is a rare but potentially life-threatening complication of odontogenic infection that requires immediate neurosurgical attention. It is defined as an encapsulated collection of pus in various areas of the brain. The infectious process spreads from the dental site and occurs in 2 ways: haematogenous route or by contiguity. Treatment should ideally be based on the etiological factor excision, combined with drainage and adjuvant antibiotic therapy. The aim of this article was to report a case of frontal brain abscess of dental origin and to review the literature. Case report: We present the case of a 36-year-old man diagnosed with a brain abscess located in the frontal lobe and caused by a periodontal lesion of the right upper first molar. The final diagnosis was established due to the availability of computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. Drainage of the pus combined with extraction of the tooth and antibiotic therapy was followed by an excellent recovery. Clinical and radiological features, treatment and follow-up data were documented. A review of the literature using the PubMed database was performed Conclusion: Oral infections can lead to life-threatening infections, such as brain abscesses. Early detection of this condition through correct diagnosis is essential to give the patient the best treatment; in addition, improving of the oral environment and treating oral infections is highly recommended to limit this serious condition.

Nepal has been having quite endless and unsolved ruffle with neighbouring nation India in light of border dispute. Since long, despite cordial and amicable nexus as well as having almost an airproof proximity in terms of culture, social values and other traits, often Nepal has to present a gesture of unceremonious unwelcome and decent denial over India’s highhanded stance on border issues, more precisely an act of an unethical encroachment. Given the situation, many scholars and analysts often urge and strongly counsel Nepal to internationalize the issue and bring it in notice of International Court of Justice, hereafter said only ICJ. This paper makes an engagement to analyse dozens of prominent bases on why not this will be a beneficial issue for Nepal; thus, Nepal has to more rationally explore other diplomatic routes to resolve it, or should forbid on internationalizing it.

Medication by Physical Exercise of the Upper Limb in Deforming Spastic Paresis (Stroke); Conventional Physiotherapy Versus Supervised Self- rehabilitation: A Multicentre Prospective, Controlled and Randomized, Single-blind Study over a Period of One Year
Authors:   Faculty of Medicine Sorbonne University (France), Moumeni Ibrahim Npochinto
Published: January 2022

Background: Some patients who have had a stroke develop paresis. With time it can become spastic and even distorting. Spastic deforming paresis is often accentuated in the upper limb. It is a real brake in the performance of daily activities, with a psychological impact. The physical therapy of the upper limb today, appears like a real sea snake. Hence the strategies of physical medication must be thought out, studied and developed on a daily basis to overcome this unsightly condition. Objective: Is conventional physiotherapy more effective than supervised self-rehabilitation, in terms of functional recovery in deforming spastic paresis after stroke of the upper limb? This was the major question / objective of this study. Methods: Our study was a multicenter, prospective, interventional, controlled, and randomized, single-blind study. Comparing conventional physiotherapy versus supervised self-rehabilitation over a 12-month period. We recruited 37 patients in France and Spain more than 6 months after their stroke. The judgment tool used during all phases (1st day; 6 months; 9 months and 12 months) of the assessment was the modified Frenchay scale (MFS). Results: The mean age of our cohort was 69 ± 7 years and the mean mounts after stroke was 11,9 ± 5 months. Supervised self-rehabilitation was significantly superior to conventional physiotherapy during the three evaluations carried out on the modified Frenchay scales. At 6 months: 5.99 ± 4.7 Vs 6.97 ± 2.1 (P <0.5). At 9 months: 6.71 ± 9.4; against 7.83 ± 4.1 (P <0.5). Three months after the follow up, we reassessed the patients to see the residual effect, the retention of acquired knowledge and behavioral adaptation after the protocol: 6.57 ± 11, Vs 7.9 ± 6 (P= 0,14). Conclusion: Supervised self-rehabilitation is more effective than conventional physiotherapy. Because from 6 months, and 9 months, a statistically significant difference is demonstrated. this difference persists even 3 months after stopping the follow-up. For the techniques used in the supervised self-rehabilitation group: learning a motor skill could strengthen the circuits of spinal interneurons that facilitate movement. We realized that learning a simple and reciprocating movement, associated with activo-dynamic stretching, done several times a day on target muscles (antagonists were more significant than traditional physiotherapy which, it was rather holistic and nonspecific) would produce an influence in the spinal cord. And, over time, would promote reciprocal inhibition between antagonist and agonist muscles. All the same, further studies with a larger cohort must be carried out in order to conclude on this mentioned neurophysiological hypothesis.

Introduction. The pathogenesis of chronic prostatitis remains unclear. The aim of this study was to study the pathogenesis and frequency of infectious and non-infectious prostatitis and the effectiveness of prostatilen in its prevention in the experiment. Materials and methods. Experimental work was carried out on 82 male Wistar rats 5–8 months of age (weight 250–400 g). To initiate inflammation of the prostate gland, rats of the 1st and 2nd groups (30 in each) were injected into the rectum with 1 ml of a mixture of turpentine and Dimexide in a ratio of 1:4 to a depth of 2.5 cm. For rats of the 3rd group (n=17) prostatilen was intramuscularly injected daily for five days at a dose of 0.1 mg/100 g of weight. The day after the last injection into the rectum, they were also injected with a pathogenic mixture to initiate prostatitis. In the 4th group (n=5) there were control animals, which were injected intramuscularly with physiological sodium chloride solution for five days before the initiation of prostatitis. Rats were removed from the experiment by guillotinization, in the 1st group the next day, and in the 2nd group 28 days after the initiation of inflammation, and for rats of the 3rd and 4th groups – 5 days after the last injection (prostatilen or physiological solution respectively). The prostate gland and seminal vesicles were used as the test material for the culture and histological examination. Results. In the experiment, microorganisms were isolated in 23.4% of cases in the 1st group, and in 92.1% of cases in the 2nd group. Among the identified microorganisms, Staphylococcus aureus prevailed in the 1st group, and S. urealiticus in the 2nd group. The presence of mixed flora was found in 18.2% in the 1st group and in 20% in the 2nd group. During macro- and microscopic examination of the prostate gland of rats of the 3rd group, we did not find signs of its active inflammation, and during bacteriological examination, microorganisms were not detected. Conclusion. Chronic inflammation of the prostate gland initially develops as aseptic, but later the prostatitis becomes infectious. This can be confirmed by modern means and methods of laboratory diagnostics of bacterial flora in prostate exprimat in patients with chronic prostatitis. The data obtained from experimental studies confirm the ability of prostatilen to prevent the development of the inflammatory process in the prostate gland, which makes it possible to recommend it in clinical conditions for the complex therapy of patients with chronic prostatitis, as well as in means of preventing this disease.

Statins are the cornerstone of therapy for hypercholesterolemia and coronary artery disease. A large number of studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of lipid-lowering therapy in preventing the progression of atherosclerosis and the development of cardiovascular diseases. The original rosuvastatin is one of the most effective statin medication in its class used to reduce low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol. The existing fears of patients and doctors about the high doses of rosuvastatin, as well as other drugs in this group, prevent the achievement of the target LDL cholesterol values, and, as a result, contribute to the progression of atherosclerosis. This article demonstrates the efficacy and safety of taking high doses of rosuvastatin in patients of different age groups with various cardiovascular events.

The problems of language preferences of the population of the multinational Republic of Bashkortostan are considered. Despite the widespread use of the communicative functions of the Russian language, national languages are also used on a fairly large scale in the republic, including in the field of education, mass media and in everyday life. As the data of ethnosociological surveys show, the linguistic guidelines of the population of the republic are aimed at further preservation and multiplication of national languages. It has been established that non-Russian peoples in the republic are interested in teaching and learning their native languages in the schools of the republic. In a market economy, despite financial and economic difficulties, the population writes out and reads periodicals in their native language.
Theory vs. Practice: Does Fiscal Policy Crowd Out Business Investment during Crises?
Authors: Yoo Sunwoo , Campbell-Mohn Emma
Published: January 2022

In 2020, the South Korean government aimed to mitigate the socio-economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic by enacting a fiscal stimulus package worth 66.8 trillion won. Traditional economic theory warns that such deficit-financed expansionary fiscal policies can have the adverse effect of crowding out business investment, but the current literature is more divided: some argue that the crowding-out effect outweighs the multiplier effect of fiscal stimulus; some claim that the two effects cancel each other out; and others assert that the scale of crowding out is small, at least in recessions. It is important to study the existence and scale of crowding out during recessions to evaluate the soundness of fiscal policies as a countercyclical tool. Thus, this paper examines whether Korea’s fiscal policy crowded out business investment during two severe economic downturns: the “great recession” of 2008 and the “great lockdown” of 2020. The paper uses a cross-time case comparison of the two economic crises in the hopes of drawing generalizable conclusions for South Korea over time. The findings show that Korea’s facility investment continued to increase during the recent pandemic but decreased during the 2008 financial crisis. Was this due to crowding out? Further analysis suggests that the decrease in investment during the 2008 crisis was due to factors other than crowding out. Hence, the paper concludes that Korea’s fiscal responses to the two crises did not crowd out business investment and thus encourages the continued use of appropriately sized and targeted fiscal stimulus during recessions.

Published: January 2022

Building mathematical models that can describe, predict, and explain real-life phenomena is useful. This paper features the functional dependency model and the square of this functional dependency which hold significant information. A mathematical model that relates these functional dependencies with the average value of the function was developed to show that for an arbitrary well-behaved function, the definite integral of the square of the function over a finite interval is minimal when the function is constant over the interval. Finally, the model’s validity and accuracy in representing real-world problems for different situations in physics like mechanics, quantum mechanics, and electricity in economics were evaluated.

That is why an important change was felt in the criminal and social policies for the prevention and treatment of juvenile delinquency in Romanian society and the ways of prevention, intervention and post-intervention developed by institutions with the role of socialization, adaptation and social control of young people were considerably diversified. This paper is part of a larger research that aimed to identify the psycho-social effects of educational measures of deprivation of liberty applied to young offenders in Romania. The research participants (n = 12) are professionals who work in two educative centres in Romania, Târgu Ocna Educative Centre and Buziaş Educative Centre. The research method used to collect the data was the focus group. The research conclusions show us that the educational measure of internment in an educative centre must activate processes of responsibility, favouring the change of personal lifestyles and social and family relations. The intervention of specialists, focused mainly on education, work, religion and cultural, recreational and sports activities, must respond to the principle of individualization, must be modulated by the personality needs of each, based primarily on the individual resources of each. Our research demonstrates that all these results can be achieved only through continuous and adequate training of professionals working with juvenile delinquents.

Authors: APOSTOL Alexandru-Cosmin , NETEDU Adrian
Published: January 2022

In this paper, we present some key features regarding a quantitative panel study conducted in 2020 at the Faculty of Philosophy and Social-Political Science, Alexandru Ioan Cuza University of Iași. To examine how the undergraduates perceive distance learning in the context of university closure due to the spread of COVID-19 disease, we organized two „waves" of research by questionnaire: 593 respondents in March 2020 and 499 respondents in June 2020, both samples being representative. This research had four main objectives: (a) studying comparatively the university students opinion about the decision to suspend the traditional face-to-face teaching activities; (b) studying the university students opinion about the online communications with professor or tutors, with their colleagues; (c) studying the main online activities initiated during the pandemic for academic formation; (d) constructing a statistical index of pandemic difficulties for comparative analysis within specific groups of the target population. Some of the conclusions of this study showed that during this semester, marked by pandemic context, the intensity level of the communication process between students and their teachers has increased relatively balanced for all years of study. Also, the online teaching activities carried out at a constant pace respected the pre-pandemic schedule. Thus, the time spent on learning was quite similar compared with the pre-pandemic period.
TRUST IN INSTITUTIONS AND POLITICAL ENGAGEMENT AMONG STUDENTS: A QUANTITATIVE RESEARCH
Authors: VASILIU Roxana-Mihaela
Published: January 2022

Establishing a relation based on trust between citizens and institutions leads to a good functioning of society and a legitimation of the political system. According to previous research (IRES, 2010, 2012, 2016, IMAS, 2011), Romanians– particularly youth, show low confidence in institutions, especially in politics. Why does this generate negative effects? If citizens have confidence in institutions, they can give a meaning to their civic and political involvement. When level of trust tends to be negative, the motivations to engage in civic or political actions will decrease based on the presumption that even if change is desired, the institutions will not allow it to happen. Thus, the paper aims to analyse the degree of students’ trust in public institutions and their civic/ political behaviour, in the context in which these indicators can influence – on medium and long term -, the type of political culture and the relationship between government and citizens. The study is based on a quantitative research conducted between December 2019 – January 2020 among students from three specializations within the Faculty of Philosophy and Social-Political Sciences, “Alexandru Ioan Cuza” University of Iasi, Romania on a sample of 433 subjects, and had as main directions of analysis: the level of trust in public institutions, the forms of civic/ political involvement practiced by students, the ability to effect changes at high level. The results bring into attention that youth have limited trust in institutions and this fact can justify an apathy condition and insecurity regarding social and political change. At the same time, most students are unsatisfied by the Romanian democracy regime. The most common forms of civic and political involvement over the last year have been voting, signing petitions and participating in volunteer oriented work.

The subject of observation is a part of the translation of the 1858 Тръговско рѫководство (Commercial Guidebook) titled За тръговско писмописанїе (On Commercial Letter Writing), a practical guide for keeping business correspondence. The author studies adjectives, numerals, pronouns and verbs. The analysis leads to the conclusion that the text reveals significant convergence of written and spoken language. The author traces the translator’s efforts to adopt widely-used linguistic means that would make the language of his work modern and universal – a part of the process of establishing a new Bulgarian language norm.

NAMES FOR WOMEN’S OUTERWEAR IN THE RHODOPE FOLK CLOTHING
Authors: KANEVSKA-NIKOLOVA ELENA , MARINOV SIMEON
Published: January 2022

The article presents the terminology related to women’s outerwear in the Rhodope folk clothing, excerpted from various ethnographic, regional historical and dialectological studies. The authors analyse the names for women’s outer garments of the saya and sukman type and those for top garments that form a part of festive costumes. They go on to examine ambiguous and synonymous terms, the main word-formation patterns, as well as the etymology of some of the names of foreign and domestic origin. As the authors establish, there is terminological unity in many names for women’s outerwear characteristic of the two confessional groups, on the one hand, and a significant diversity in their varieties, on the other.

IS THERE A POMAK DIALECT IN BULGARIA? SECOND PART
Authors: MITRINOV GEORGI MITRINOV
Published: January 2022

The paper presents a critical look at a study by Emel Balakchi dedicated to the Bulgarian Rhodope dialects and addresses her attempt to regard the Rhodope dialects as Pomak dialects, while ignoring the presence of a native Bulgarian Christian population in the Rhodopes. Numerous examples reveal the author’s lack of scientific competence and objectivity in presenting the characteristic features of the Bulgarian Rhodope dialects.
