Son Devir Kazak Din Alimlerinden Halife Altay ve Kur’an’ın Kazakça Meali
Authors: KONGYRBAYEVA Gulmeiram
Published: April 2021

Kur’ân-ı Kerim nazil olduğu günden bugüne dek hem muhtevası hem de üslubuyla gerek inananların gerekse inanmayanların dikkatini çekmiştir. Bu dikkat zamanla Kur’ân’ın farklı dillere tercümesini beraberinde getirmiştir. Asırlar boyunca Kur’ân-ı Kerim’in benzerinin getirilmediği ve getirilemeyeceği kendine özgü eşsiz bir üslubu vardır. Bu üslubunun benzersiz olması başka dillere çevirmesini de zorlaştırmaktadır. Fakat Kur’ân hitabının bütün beşere yönelik olmasından dolayı başka dillere çevrilmesine ihtiyaç duyulmuştur. Günümüze dek değişik dillere çevrilmiş Kur’ân tercümelerinin sayısı giderek artmaktadır. Tercüme edilen her bir çeviri Kur’ân-ı doğru anlamaya katkıda bulunmaktadır. Sovyetler Birliği döneminde “Sosyalist İktidar” Kazak bölgesinde çok sayıda din alimini öldürmüş ve Kazakçaya tercüme edilen Kur’ân ile diğer İslam eserleri yok etmişlerdi. Kazak bölgesinde Kazakça Kur’ân tercümesini ilk olarak Halife Altay yapmıştır. Hayatının büyük bir kısmını Kur’ân araştırma çalışmalarına ve tercümesine adayan Halife Altay, bu çalışmalarında Beyzavî, Celâleyn ve Elmalılı Hamdi Yazır tefsir ve meal çalışmaları başta olmak üzere bütün muteber meal ve tefsirlerden yararlanmıştır. Bu çalışma, Kazakistan Cumhuriyeti’nin 1991 yılında Kur’ân-ı Kerim’i Kazakçaya çeviren,dinî ilimler başta olmak üzere dil ve edebiyat sahasında mütehassıs olan Halife Altay Gağıpoğlu’nun “Kuran Kerim Kazakşa Mağına jane Tüsinigi” adlı eserini incelemek için yapılmıştır. Kur’ân-ı Kerim’i Kazakça’ya ilk tercüme eden Halife Altay’ın Kazakça’ya dair yetkin bir donanıma sahip olması, meal çalışmasına da yansımaktadır. Yaptığı meal çalışmasında, iyi derecede dinî ilimlere ve Arap diline hâkim olması kendini göstermektedir. Yine bu çalışmada, Kazak halkından da hatırı sayılır derecede bir okuyucu kitlesine sahip olmaktadır. Çalışmamızda Halife Altay’ın Kazakça Kur’ân Meali yazma serüvenini ve özelliklerini de inceleyeceğiz.
Geothermal Sustainability or Heat Mining?
Authors: Rybach Ladislaus
Published: April 2021

Heat mining” is, in fact a complete deceptive misnomer. When a mineral deposit (e.g. copper) is mined and the ore has been taken out, it will be gone forever. Not so with geothermal resources: The heat and the fluid are coming back! Namely, the heat and fluid extraction create heat sinks and hydraulic minima; around these, strong temperature and pressure gradients develop. Along the gradients, natural inflow of heat and fluid arises to replenish the deficits. The inflow from the surroundings can be strong: around borehole heat exchangers, heat flow densities of several W/m2 result, whereas terrestrial heat flow amounts only to about 50 – 100 mW/m2.

The regeneration of geothermal resources after production, in other words, extraction of fluid and/or heat) is a process that runs over different timescales, depending on the kind and size of the utilization system, the production rate, and the resource characteristics. The resource renewal depends directly on the heat/fluid backflow rate. Heat, respectively fluid production from geothermal resources can be accomplished with different withdrawal rates. Although forced production is more attractive financially (with quick payback), it can nevertheless degrade the resource permanently. The longevity of the resource (and thus the sustainability of production) can be ensured by moderate production rates. The sustainable geothermal production level depends on the utilization technology as well as on the local geologic conditions. The stipulation of the sustainable production level requires specific clarifications, especially by numerical modelling, based on long-term production strategies. In general, resource regeneration proceeds asymptotically: strong at the beginning and slowing down subsequently, reaching the original conditions only after infinite time. However, regeneration to 95 % can be achieved much earlier, e.g. within the lifetime of the extraction/production system. In other words, geothermal resources may under certain circumstances may be considered as having potential regrowth, like biomass. Concerning the requirements for such sustainable production, it is convenient to consider four resource types and utilization schemes. These may be treated by numerical model simulations that consider heat extraction by geothermal heat pumps, hydrothermal aquifer, used by a doublet system for space heating, high enthalpy two-phase reservoir, tapped to generate electricity, and enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS).
Inversion results appended with estimates from vegetation changes in assessment of Ground Surface Temperatures for the Amazon Region, Brazil
Authors: Hamza Valiya , Vieira Fábio , Guimaraes Suze , Pimentel Elizabeth
Published: April 2021

Estimates have been made of ground surface temperature (GST) variations for 25 localities in the region of Manaus (province of Amazon in Brazil) making use of both forward and inverse models. The work is based on analysis of borehole temperature logs as well as remote sensing data concerning changes in vegetation cover. Results of functional space inversion (FSI) of borehole temperature data reveal the occurrence of a cooling event, with a decrease in temperature of slightly less than 1oC, for the period of 1600 to 1850 AD. This episode coincides roughly with the period of “little ice age” in the southern hemisphere. It was followed by a warming event, with magnitudes varying from 2 to 3oC, that lasted until recent times. Integration of these results with estimates based on changes in normalized index of vegetation cover (NVDI) of the last decade points to continuation of climate warming over the last decade. This event is found to be prominent in areas of deforestation in central parts of the Amazon region.

Book review: "Letters to a New Minister of Education" by Fernando M. Reimers
Authors: Hoang Anh-Duc
Published: April 2021

Education is the most extensive public system in almost countries, influencing citizens' present and future (Reimers, 2020). Moreover, many adults are also being obsessed with unforgettable memories during childhood. Regarding special links from the past to the future, education is always among the most concerned sectors over the globe. Indeed, it is quite challenging to govern such a vast and complicated system towards sustainable development goals (Hoang et al., 2020). Professional development pieces of training or opportunities for leaders of education systems often come only when they already hold their positions for a period, being surrounded by tangled and ambiguous issues. Perhaps, "Letters to a New Minister of Education" (Reimers, 2019) is not a textbook, a guideline or a formula of how to become a successful minister of education. However, this book is a precious seed to cultivate every stakeholder's educational spirits, including government officials, education managers, teachers, parents, or our future educators. The separated and accumulated reflections of former senior educational leaders in this book bloomed from their happiest and saddest experience. Those sharing are the most concrete messages for each and every stakeholder to be able to understand other people's perspectives. As a result, people who care about education reforms might have more profound empathy with each other, which lead to the genuine acknowledgement of collaborations toward common goals.

Intertwined Immersion: The Development of Chinese Buddhist Master Costumes as an Example
Authors: Si H.L. Cu
Published: April 2021

Cultural pluralism and diversity give rise to debates on conflicts and inclusiveness. Scholars largely investigate how people manage their culture of origin within their host culture, and how the host culture helps them adapt to the changes they experience within their new environment. However, both cultures can merge peacefully and the involved cultures can flourish as a result. The evolvement of jiasha, the attire of Chinese Buddhist masters, illustrates intertwined immersion, in which traditional Chinese (domestic) and Buddhist (imported) cultures show their openness, tolerance, and acceptance to foreign cultures. Finally, while maintaining the significance of Indian Buddhist clothing, jiasha has adopted Chinese dress style, incorporating local cultural and environmental characteristics. This manifests great respect for both traditional Chinese and Buddhist cultures, harmoniously achieving this hybrid product that mutually rejuvenates and enriches native and foreign cultures.

The use of online collaborative writing tools by Ph.D. students
Authors: Oliveira Dalbert Marques , Terra Ana Lucia
Published: April 2021

One of the characteristics of personal knowledge management is sharing this knowledge with peers, which can also be accomplished through tools. That said, this work communicates an empirical investigation that explored the use of online collaborative writing tools (OCW), by individuals as students of two programs in the field of Information Sciences in Portugal, intending to know, the point of view about OCWs throughout this cycle of studies. These objectives were achieved through a mixed methodology, using an exploratory and research approach. As research techniques, a bibliography and a questionnaire were used. It was observed the majority use of three OCWs, considered important for the academic path. On the other hand, it seems that the aforementioned doctoral programs could contribute more actively to the use of these OCW. This work intends to inform other investigations about the students' relationship with the OCW, collaborate so that the students themselves become aware of these tools, and contribute with the educational programs to rethink the practices that support this use.
BEARING STRENGTH OF SHEAR CONNECTIONS FOR TUBULAR STRUCTURES: AN ANALYTICAL APPROACH
Authors: Latour Massimo , Rizzano Gianvittorio , D'Antimo Marina , Armenante Vittorio , Jaspart Jean-Pierre , Demonceau Jean-Francois
Published: April 2021

This work deals with the prediction of the bearing resistance of elementary shear connections constituted by gusset plates and square hollow sections fastened with long bolts. The research is motivated by the lack of specific rules in international codes for this particular configuration. In fact, while in lap shear connections, single or double-sided, the holes are always confined out of plane, in case of connections with long bolts and gusset plates (typical of tubular structures), the holes are constrained out of plane outwards, but they are free to buckle inwards, providing a reduction of the bearing strength. Within this framework, the paper is aimed at the development of an analytical formulation for the prediction of the bearing resistance of connections with long bolts and square hollow sections (SHS). The proposal is based on the calculation of the post-buckling load of the tube plate subjected to bearing at the bolt hole, combining the Winter's formula (originally developed to predict the post-buckling strength of steel plates accounting for geometrical and mechanical imperfections) with a simplified FE model developed in SAP 2000. The procedure developed is presented in detail proposing a design equation for connections with long bolts, based on a formula suggested recently by Može (2014, 2016) suitable for the inclusion in code provisions such as EC3. The accuracy of the design equation is checked on the experimental data reported in a previous work of the same authors properly extended with parametric FE simulations to cope for variation of geometrical parameters.
Experimental Behavior and Mechanical Modeling of Dissipative T-Stub Connections
Authors: Latour Massimo , Rizzano Gianvittorio
Published: April 2021

This work aims to enhance the energy-dissipation capacity of classical rectangular T-stubs by proposing an hourglass shape for the T-stub flange according to the approach usually adopted for added damping and stiffness (ADAS) devices. A new type of axial damper is developed. First, a mechanical model of the device is set up and a finite-element model is carried out in ABAQUS code. The accuracy of both models is verified through comparison with experimental results. Next, on the basis of cyclic tests, the improvement of the energy-dissipation capacity of classical T-stubs provided by the proposed approach is quantified, and the low-cycle fatigue curves are determined with reference to the case of both T-stubs on rigid support and of coupled T-stubs. The results of the work also represent a useful tool for designing a dissipative double split tee connection.
Experimental analysis and mechanical modeling of T-stubs with four bolts per row
Authors: Latour Massimo , Rizzano Gianvittorio
Published: April 2021

The behavior of steel structures is significantly affected by the connections between the steel members. For this reason, special attention to the prediction of the joint rotational behavior is devoted by Eurocode 3 which provides the well-known component method. In EC3, starting from the results of several researches, the formulations for the characterization of the behavior of T-stubs with two bolts per row are given, but with reference to T-stubs with four bolts per row, even though they are present in many actual structural situations, the limited number of experimental tests and analytical models has not led yet to the codification of this component in the code. In this work, starting from the results of three experimental tests on T-stub with four bolts per row, carried out at the laboratory on materials and structures of the University of Coimbra, a FE model in ABAQUS has been set up in order to analyze the yield line patterns corresponding to the different collapse mechanisms. Subsequently, with reference to the yield line shape different from that of T-stub with two bolts per row, the effective lengths have been revaluated applying an energy approach. The definition of the effective width for all the possible collapse mechanisms allowed to set up a proposal for determining the resistance of T-stubs with 4 bolts per row consistent with the approach provided by Eurocode 3. The model accuracy has been verified by means of a comparison with the results provided by a numerical analysis.
Hierarchical control as a shared neurocognitive mechanism for language and music
Authors: Asano Rie , Boeckx Cedric , Seifert Uwe
Published: April 2021

Although comparative research has made substantial progress in clarifying the relationship between language and music as neurocognitive systems from both a theoretical and empirical perspective, there is still no consensus about which mechanisms, if any, are shared and how they bring about different neurocognitive systems. In this paper, we tackle these two questions by focusing on hierarchical control as a neurocognitive mechanism underlying syntax in language and music. We put forward the Coordinated Hierarchical Control (CHC) hypothesis: linguistic and musical syntax rely on hierarchical control, but engage this shared mechanism differently depending on the current control demand. While linguistic syntax preferably engages the abstract rule-based control circuit, musical syntax rather employs the coordination of the abstract rule-based and the more concrete motor-based control circuits. We provide evidence for our hypothesis by reviewing neuroimaging as well as neuropsychological studies on linguistic and musical syntax. The CHC hypothesis makes a set of novel testable predictions to guide future work on the relationship between language and music.
Fear of relapse in schizophrenia: a mixed methods systematic review
Authors: Zukowska Zofia , Eisner Emily , Li Ling , Allan Stephanie , Gumley Andrew Ian
Published: April 2021

Introduction: Fears of relapse in people diagnosed with schizophrenia have long been recognised as an impediment to recovery and wellbeing. However, the extent of the empirical basis for the fear of relapse concept is unclear. A systematic review is required to collate available evidence and define future research directions.Methods: A pre-registered systematic search (PROSPERO CRD42020196964) of four databases (PubMed, MEDLINE-Ovid, PsycINFO-Ovid, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials) was conducted from their inception to 05/04/2021. Results: We found 9 eligible studies. Of these, 4 were quantitative descriptive studies and 1 was a randomised controlled trial, and 4 were qualitative. The available quantitative evidence suggests fear of relapse may have concurrent positive relationships with depression. Qualitative synthesis suggests fear of relapse is a complex phenomenon with behavioural and emotional components which has both direct and indirect effects on wellbeing.Conclusions: Evidence in this area is limited and research is urgently needed to refine existing fear of relapse measurement tools and to examine relationships with wellbeing rather than just psychopathology. Nonetheless, clinicians should be aware that fear of relapse exists and comprises of fears of losing personal autonomy, losing social and occupational functioning and previous traumatic experiences and that fear of relapse appears to impact carers as well as those diagnosed with schizophrenia.
Vaccine Equity
Authors: Nigam Shalu
Published: April 2021

COVID-19 has shown that today the world is more interconnected, yet it is more hierarchical and stratified riddled with disproportionate systemic structural socio-economic inequalities. The global humanitarian disaster has highlighted the despair state of human rights affairs across the planet. It has exposed the supremacy of the neoliberal, nationalist paradigm that is deeply entrenched affecting the poorest of the poor. The pandemic has also indicated how capitalism is eroding democratic values endangering the lives of billions. Today, the high-income countries and the pharmaceutical companies are advancing their strategic interest, whereas the persons in the middle and low-income countries are being deprived of their basic requirements. Inequities in vaccine distribution are obstructing the effective response to the pandemic at the global level. Discrimination in access to the vaccine is adversely affecting the marginalized. This essay argues for respecting human rights as global health justice and suggests for affordable, accessible, and quality vaccination and treatment to all in line with reasoning that health inequalities and cross border issues are morally and ethically troubling and therefore are morally justified. Based on positive duties to create conditions for the availability of health rights for all humans, it argues that no rich country or resourceful persons will be safe until the last person is safe. These moral duties, in turn, generate duties of cooperation and obligations at international and domestic levels to better align with values in line with the principles of global health governance. Leaving a large section of the population in the Third world behind is not going to eliminate the threats of the spread of the epidemic.
Determinants of Fasting in Patients with Cancer : A Longitudinal Study Using an Integrated Behavior Change Model
Authors: Mas Sébastien , Gourlan Mathieu , Bernard Paquito , Cousson-Gélie Florence
Published: April 2021

Fasting is currently not recommended during cancer treatment. Despite this, a meaningful proportion of patients with cancer have positive perceptions of fasting, or practice fasting during their treatment. The integrated behavior change model (IBCM) combines variables and hypotheses derived from the theory of planned behavior, the self-determination theory, and the health action process approach to explain health behavior. Based on the IBCM, the present study examined determinants of fasting in patients with cancer. A total of 114 patients (M = 52 years, 108 women) completed an online questionnaire measuring past behavior, action planning, intention, attitudes, subjective norm, perceived behavioral control (PBC), autonomous motivation, controlled motivation, amotivation, and perceived autonomy support at an initial time point and informed one month later to what extent they had performed fasting in the last 30 days. Hypotheses were tested using a Bayesian path analysis. The model tested confirmed most of the hypothesized paths of the IBCM. Autonomous motivation was significantly directly linked to intention, while attitude and subjective norm were not significantly linked to intention. PBC was significantly indirectly linked to fasting through intention and action planning. Past behavior was significantly indirectly linked to actual fasting through some variables of the IBCM, with a significant strong link between past behavior and autonomous motivation. Autonomous motivation appears to play a central role in the practice of fasting among patients with cancer. Future research should apply the IBCM to fasting among various populations and with a longer period of follow-up.
Ambiguity under scrutiny: Moral judgment of microaggressions
Authors: Korman Joanna , Kim Boyoung , Malle Bertram F , Sobel David
Published: April 2021

Microaggressions are subtle, offensive comments directed at minority group members that are characteristically ambiguous in meaning. In two studies, we explored how observers interpret such ambiguous statements by comparing microaggressions to faux pas, offenses caused by the speaker having an incidental false belief. In Study 1, we compared third-party observers’ blame and intentionality judgments of microaggressions with those for social faux pas. Despite judging both offenses not to be caused intentionally, participants judged microaggressions as more blameworthy. In Study 2 microaggressions without explicit mental state information exhibited a similar profile of judgments as those accompanied by explicit prejudiced or ignorant beliefs. Although they are, like faux pas, judged not to cause harm intentionally, microaggressive comments appear to be judged as more blameworthy on account of enduring prejudice thought to be lurking behind a speaker’s false or incorrect beliefs. Our studies demonstrate a distinctive profile of moral judgment for microaggressions.

Authors: Bergmüller Claudia , Höck Susanne , Causemann Bernward , Krier Jean-Marie , Quiring Eva
Published: April 2021

For several years now, the demand for increased impact orientation has also affected the field of Global Education (GE) / Development Education and Awareness Raising (DEAR). In this context, a vivid discussion is still ongoing regarding what can be considered an ›impact‹ in GE/DEAR and how these impacts can be analysed. Both questions are dealt with within the scope of the research project ›Impacts and methods of impact monitoring in development education and awareness raising‹, which was financed by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) and which is to be presented in this volume. Against the backdrop of the empirical findings of this research project, this publication shows which effects can be targeted in the planning and evaluation of GE-/DEAR-projects and which contextual conditions can influence their effectiveness.

A urinary tract infection is the most common bacterial infection met in day to day practice. It is more common in females than males due to shorter urethra which allows the bacteria quick access to the bladder. In Ayurveda symptoms of UTI has close resemblance with Mutrakruchha. Acharya Charaka has described eight types of Mutrakrichha. In Mutrakrichha, the vitiated Pitta dosha along with Apana Vayu reaches the Vasti (bladder) and afflicts the Mutravaha Srotas due to which the patient feels painful and burning micturition. In this case report a 45 years old female patient presenting with symptoms of urinary urgency, increased frequency and burning micturition on and off since 10 years was diagnosed as a case of recurrent UTI, managed effectively with chandraprabha vati, gokshuradi guggulu shwetparpati for 21days and uttarbasti procedure for 3days. The assessment were done before and after treatment showed significant changes in sign, symptoms and urine examination report. No recurrence of UTI was noticed in follow up visit. Ayurvedic management offers a good approach to manage Mutrakrichha.

Published: April 2021

Background: There is a global spread of Corona Virus Disease (COVID-19) with Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Corona Virus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) being identified as the causative organism. This pandemic has infected over 53 million people globally causing over 1.3 million deaths resulting in lockdowns being implemented across many countries in the world. Global travel has been severely restricted especially in the early phase with far reaching social, economic and emotional implications. In addition to local measures undertaken by each country to curtail the spread of the disease, many countries implemented entry restriction on flights to reduce the risk of importing the disease by potentially infected incoming travellers. The State of Qatar eased travel restrictions from 1st of September 2020 (Phase IV of reopening of pandemic restrictions) [1]. Incoming travellers from high risk countries had to have a mandatory COVID-19 Naso-Oropharyngeal swab negative result before boarding their flight to Qatar. Then they had to commit to two weeks of compulsory quarantine. Travellers from low risk countries had to be swabbed at Hamad international airport on arrival, followed by a week’s mandatory home quarantine. All travellers had to have COVID-19 RT-PCR nasooropharyngeal swab on day 6 after arrival in Qatar. Method: We looked at the data provided by Ministry of Public Health (MOPH), Qatar from 1st of September to 30th of November. This was retrospective observational study looking at the prevalence of COVID positivity of return travellers as compared to the total positive cases in the country [1]. Results: In our review, out of a total of 19,909 COVID-19 positive cases, 2692 were incoming travellers which amounts to about 14 % of total COVID positive cases in Qatar. It was also noted that with each passing day, the ratio of incoming traveller’s in comparison to the total cases have been increasing, with figures of 9% in September 2020 as compared to 21% in November 2020. Conclusion: This figure clearly shows how important it is to screen all return travellers for COVID-19 as travellers are generally asymptomatic and could potentially spread the disease in the local community. All countries should consider implementing similar policies to reduce the risks of importing COVID-19.

Human homeostatic iron regulator protein gene (HFE gene) H63D mutations even when homozygous are rarely associated with iron overload. These mutations, independent of iron status, are associated with calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate crystal deposition disease (CPPD) leading to arthropathy even for heterozygotes. The arthropathy does not respond to iron depletion. We report a case of a 62-year-old male with chronic generalized arthralgias with no evidence of iron overload or elevated inflammatory markers with characteristic radiographic hook-like osteophytes suggestive of hemochromatosis arthropathy.

Pangasianodon hypophthalmus is a type of freshwater fish that has potential and has economic value. Its production target which increases every year causes farmers to spawn with the help of hormonal stimulation. The aimed of this research was to test and find out the results of the use of three different hormones namely Ovaprim, Spawnprim, and HCG in P. hypopthalmus spawning. This research was conducted in January 2020 at the Trimurjo Fish Seed Center, Central Lampung. This research used a randomized complete design method with the 3 treatments, P1 (Ovaprim 0,5 ml / kg), P2 (Spawnprim 0,5 ml / kg), P3 (HCG 500 IU / kg) and 3 replications. The results of this research indicate a significant difference (p <0,05) in the relative fecundity parameters, fertilization rate, and hatching rate, but not significantly different in the parameters of latensi periode and diameter of eggs. In P1, Ovaprim hormone injections provide better reproductive performance compared to Spawnprim and HCG injections.

This study aims to determine the effect of different doses of booster grotop in feed on the growth and survival of Asian Redtail (Hemibagrus nemurus) maintained in peat swamp media. This research was conducted from 27 March - 05 May 2020 at the Laboratory of Aquaculture Technology, Faculty of Fisheries and Marine, University of Riau. The container used was an aquarium measuring 60 cm x 40 cm x 40 cm as many as 15 units with a stocking density of 12 fish/60 L. This study used a completely randomized design method (CRD) one factor with five levels of treatment and three repetitions. The level of treatment applied in the study was P0 = without giving Boster Grotop (Control), P1 = dose of Boster Grotop 25 g/kg of feed, P2 = dose of Boster Grotop 30 g/kg of feed. P3 = dose of Boster Grotop 35 g/kg of feed and P4 = dose of Boster Grotop 40 g/kg of feed. The results showed that giving boster grotop with different doses in the feed had a significant effect (P<0.05) on growth but had no significant effect (P>0.05) on the survival rate of the Asian Redtail seeds. The best treatment was found at a boster grotop dose of 40 g/kg of feed, which produced protease enzyme activity (0.1731 IU/mL), total weight growth (5.11 g), total length growth (3.73 cm), specific growth rate (3.67%), feed efficiency (72.30%), feed conversion (1.38), survival rate (86.11%).
Factors Related to Patient Expectation and Satisfaction among New and Existing Denture wearers with Complete Denture therapy
Authors: Pandey A
Published: April 2021

Introduction: Edentulism is considered a debilitating condition with aging in which several dental and non-dental factors play a vital role in the success of prosthodontic treatment. Patient satisfaction is an important non-dental component. The dentist should aim for functional rehabilitation by satisfying the patient medically, functionally, and psychologically. Patient satisfaction depends on two factors: patient factor and dentist factor. From the patient’s view, satisfaction is guided by improved quality with factors like eating, easy communication, comfort, social life, economic status, and vocational opportunities. From dentist’s view, treatment options, treatment cost etc. affects the patient’s satisfaction.

Materials and Methods: Experimental study conducted in Department of Prosthodontics, College of Medical Sciences, Bharatpur in patients receiving complete denture by convenience sampling in six months duration in sixty-five samples. Questionnaires regarding patient’s expectations and satisfaction in terms of retention, mastication, phonetics, esthetics, and comfort were used in both 1st-time denture wearer and existing denture wearer was recorded. Grading was rated with Visual Analog Scale (VAS) from 0 to 10 using the optimum cutoff values. Data were recorded in SPSS 21 and analyzed.

Results: Independent t-test was carried out for expectation showing a statistically significant difference between retention, mastication, aesthetics, phonetics, comfort, and denture status with p value 0.036, 0.00, 0.001, 0.003, and 0.013 respectively. Statistically, a significant difference was found for satisfaction between aesthetics and denture status with a p-value of 0.01.

Conclusions: Expectation and satisfaction were found to be more in first-time denture wearers than existing denture wearers. Experiences obtained beforehand with complete dentures could influence patient expectations and satisfaction.

Любовные недоразумения с точки зрения теории разума, на материале раннего творчества Антона Чехова

 

В настоящей статье обращаемся к одной из главных тем чеховедения последних лет, т.е. к теме коммуникации. Для Чехова коммуникация является не только простым обменом мнений, но сама становится предметом интереса и тщательных наблюдений. Оттуда возникает вполне реалистический – учитывающий разные ошибки – образ человеческого общения в прозе Чехова, который, в свою очередь, поддается анализу с учетом разных методов. Мы предлагаем посмотреть на проблему недоразумений героев (в области любви) с точки зрения ошибочной теории разума. Мы присматриваемся нескольким текстам раннего творчества писателя (м.проч. Нервы, Верочка), в которых недоразумения являются эффектом именно неправильного понимания чужого сознания, эмоций и чувств. Чехов, таким образом, создал настоящий образ человеческой коммуникации, в которой язык является лишь одним из многих явлений, решающих о успехе в межчеловеческом общении.

 

 

Love misunderstanding in the light of theory of mind, based on Anton Chekhov’s early prose

 

In this article we endeavour to draw the attention to one of the most essential themes in the research on Chekhov’s literary works, being the problem of communication. For Chekhov communication is not only a simple exchange of points, but it itself becomes the matter of interest and in-depth observations. Hence, its entirely realistic – bearing in mind various errors – picture of human contacts in Chekhov’s prose, which in turn can be analysed by diverse methodologies. As a tool for observation of the misunderstandings between the heroes (in the area of love), there is the defective theory of mind employed. And a few texts from early stage of Chekhov’s career fall here under scrutiny (e.g. “Nervers’, ‘Verochka’). In these short stories, misunderstandings emerge from inaccurate reading of consciousness, emotions and feelings of others. In this way, the writer creates the real picture of communication, in which the language is only one of many phenomena determining the success in human relationships.
