Background: There are limited data about the epidemiology of gingivitis in Gaza Strip, Palestine. The aim of the current study was to determine the prevalence and severity of gingivitis among high school students in Gaza strip.
Methods: Cross-sectional study was conducted. A total of 408 students from both genders aged between 15-19 years old were selected from different areas of Gaza Strip by multistage sampling method (simple random for selecting the school, and stratified random sampling for student selection). Data of study were obtained through (periodontal examination kit and questionnaire). The data were collected in questionnaire filled by self-administration that consist of three sections; personal data, student general health conditions and oral hygiene practices. Before data collection, permission was obtained from the Ministry of Education. The schools were informed about the purpose of the study and its goal. The written informed consent from the student himself were obtained.
Result: Average age of sample units was (16.92 + 0.78) years old. The percentage of males was 42.9%. According to the governorate distribution of the sample, 18.4% of them were from North Gaza, 38% were from Gaza City, while 15.4% were from Middle Camps, 18.3% from Khanyounes, and 9.8% from Rafah. The main findings of the current study revealed the prevalence rate of gingivitis among high school students was 97.1%. According to gingival index (GI), the average of GI was (1.5+0.80), where 28.5% of gingivitis cases were mild cases, while 44.5% of them were moderate, and 27% were of severe gingivitis. There was no significant difference in the average of gingival index according to gender (t=1.35, P=0.178), where the average of GI among males was (1.6+0.8), while that of females was (1.5+0.18). According to sociodemographic factors, there were no differences in averages of GI except for governorates (F=3.7, P=0.05), and for Paternal educational level (F=3.1,P=0.027), where the highest average of GI was that of those live in Gaza city (1.63+ 0.77), and North Gaza (1.63+ 0.82) and those whose fathers of illiteracy (1.73+ 0.95) and basic (1.66+0.78) educational levels. Moreover, there was statistically high significant direct correlation between GI and PI (R=0.63, P=0.000).
Conclusion: The results of the current study revealed that GI average of high school students in North Gaza and Gaza City was the highest in Gaza Strip, and this finding need more investigation in future study to explain the reason of this significant difference in GI average according to governorates. Also, the findings of this study confirmed that the paternal educational level is considered as a risk factor for gingivitis, where the students whose fathers of low educational level have high probability to complain from gingivitis than those whose fathers of high educational level.

AbstrakFenomena pernikahan usia dini pada akhir ini angkanya semakin meningkat. Di Indonesia terutama daerah pedesaan yaitu di Desa Cibunar Kecamatan Cibatu Kabupaten Garut. Pernikahan usia dini di desa ini sangatlah sering terjadi, baik orang yang sudah mampu maupun orang yang belum mampu untuk melaksanakan pernikahan. Pernikahan dini yang berlangsung sejak dulu dan masih bertahan sampai sekarang. Bagi masyarakat pernikahan usia dini tidak hanya terjadi karena faktor ekonomi saja, tapi ada faktor lain yaitu kurangnya pendidikan orang tua serta anak. Hingga pernikahan usia dini menjadi solusi bagi mereka. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui dampak pernikahan usia dini bagi anak perempuan melalui analisis feminisme liberal yang mengkategorikan perempuan dan laki-laki memiliki hak dan kesempatan dan pendidikan yang sama. Dengan teori Wollstonecraft, bahwa “inferioritas” perempuan sebagai agen rasional disebabkan pendidikan yang rendah. Pendidikan hanya diprioritaskan hanya untuk laki-laki. Dalam hal ini langkah-langkah yang ditempuh oleh penulis dalam melakukan penelitian pertama, melalui pencarian data objektif dengan cara observasi, studi dokumentasi dan wawancara (interview). Kedua melalui studi kepustakaan yaitu penelaahan buku-buku yang berhubungan dengan masalah penelitian. Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa, faktor penyebab pernikahan dini di Desa Cibunar yaitu (1) Faktor ekonomi, (2) Faktor rendahnya dan kesadaran terhadap pentingnya pendidikan, (3) Faktor lingkungan mereka tinggal. Dampak yang timbulkan dari pernikahan usia dini di desa cibunar kecamatan cibatu kabupaten garut yaitu: (1) Ekonomi, (2) Kesehatan, (3) Pandangan masyarakat terhadap pelaku pernikahan usia dini, sedikit permasalahan muncul karena cerminan kebiasaan perempuan itu sendiri seperti malas, bangun tidur siang, pemalu dan lain sebagainya. Kata kunci: Dampak pernikahan usia dini, feminisme, pernikahan dini.

Bentuk perdagangan bebas di era global ini dampaknya adalah Indonesia harus mempersiapkan pengembangan Sumber Daya Manusia (SDM) yang kompetensi dan standarisasinya mengikuti kualifikasi dunia. Penerapan teknologi baru dalam industri mengandung konsekuensi peningkatan permintaan Sumber Daya Manusia (SDM) yang memiliki kemampuan yang lebih tinggi guna mendukung peningkatan Produktivitas.Perguruan Tinggi Vokasional sebagai lembaga pendidikan tinggi selepas sekolah tingkat menengah, memiliki peran besar dalam merencanakan dan menciptakan SDM yang profesional dan produktif. Pendidikan di berbagai perguruan tinggi vokasional setingkat akademi maupun politeknik bertujuan untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan dan keterampilan mahasiswa dalam rangka menyiapkan mereka sebagai tenaga kerja tingkat midle atau top namun memilki ketrampilan yang memadai disamping memiliki ketrampilan konseptual yang bisa diandalkan Pendidikan vokasional merupakan jenis pendidikan yang unik karena bertujuan untuk mengembangkan pemahaman, sikap dan kebiasaan kerja yang berguna bagi individu sehingga dapat memenuhi kebutuhan sosial, politik, dan ekonomi sesuai dengan ciri yang dimiliki. Pendidikan dan pelatihan kejuruan merupakan pendekatan pendidikan yang menekankan pada kebutuhan industri sehingga peningkatan dan pengembangan individu dapat dilakukan di industri. Berdasar teori yang ada, pendidikan vokasional berpeluang untuk menjawab berbagai tantangan perubahan yang diakibatkan oleh kemajuan teknologi yang ditandai oleh revolusi digital dan era disrupsi.Namun kebijakan yang akhir-akhir ini ditetapkan oleh kemendikbud pada dasarnya adalah kebijakan yang mengimplementasikan pemikiran-pemikiran filsafat pragmatisme yakni filsafat yang menggunakan konsekuensi-konsekuensi praktis sebagai standar untuk menentukan nilai dan kebenaran. Akar dari pemikiran pragmatisme ini selajutnya akan memiliki implikasi dalam menetapkan tujuan pendidikan kedepan seperti: ketrampilan-ketrampilan kejuruan (pekerjaan), kemampuan bertransaksi secara efektif dengan masalah-masalah sosial (mampu memecahkan masalah-masalah social secara secara efektif). Bagi perguruan tinggi yang yang menyelenggarakan pendidikan vokasional, kondisi ini dapat menjadi peluang sekaligus tantangan untuk lebih meningkatkan perannya sebagai penghasil sumberdaya manusia yang mampu menopang kebutuhan pasar dunia industri yang terus menuntut kualitas sumberaya manusia guna mengimbangi perubahan yang ada.

Untuk parameter suhu, TSS, lapisan minyak, pH, salinitas, DO, BOD5, amonia total, fosfat, nitrat, sulfida, surfaktan, minyak dan lemak, raksa, Cr6+, arsen, kadmium, tembaga, timbal, seng dan nikel masih dibawah ambang batas dan memenuhi baku mutu air laut untuk biota laut.
Educational and Career Trajectories of Extramural Students and Graduates of Higher Education
Authors: Cherednichenko Galina 
Published: September 2020

The results of a 2019 sociological survey conducted on a nationwide structured sample of extramural students (2019) and graduates (2000–2018) of Higher Educational Institutions (HEIs) are used to construct the social portrait of extramural students and graduates and identify the types of their educational strategies as well as the motives that led them to extramural studies. We compare the expected and experienced effects of education on graduates’ positions in the labor market and analyze their movements within the socio-occupational hierarchy as a result of obtaining that education.Extramural students differ from full-timers in that they feature a more democratic socioeconomic composition, possess a different amount of educational resources at the enrollment stage, and have specific needs, the most important one being that of entering the labor market and/or compensating for reduced competitiveness. A large proportion of extramural students already have a vocational school diploma, which reflects the growing popularity of the bypass strategy to access higher education among certain social groups, which allows them to slip past the obligatory high-stakes testing. Educational capital of HEIs candidates (corresponding to four types of educational trajectories of extramural students) correlates with their socioeconomic backgrounds. The advantages and disadvantages of educational start extend into the next stage of education. Similarly, the socio-occupational statuses’ differentiation of extramural freshmen are further translated into different degrees of success in converting qualifications into degree-matching statuses.

Abstract
We analyze the spatiotemporal evolution of seismicity during a sequence of moderate (an Mw 4.7 foreshock and Mw 5.8 mainshock) earthquakes occurring in September 2019 at the transition between a creeping and a locked segment of the North Anatolian fault in the central Sea of Marmara, northwest Turkey. To investigate in detail the seismicity evolution, we apply a matched-filter technique to continuous waveforms, thus reducing the magnitude threshold for detection. Sequences of foreshocks preceding the two largest events are clearly seen, exhibiting two different behaviors: a long-term activation of the seismicity along the entire fault segment and a short-term concentration around the epicenters of the large events. We suggest a two-scale preparation phase, with aseismic slip preparing the mainshock final rupture a few days before, and a cascade mechanism leading to the nucleation of the mainshock. Thus, our study shows a combination of seismic and aseismic slip during the foreshock sequence changing the strength of the fault, bringing it closer to failure.
Comparison of the manual blood pressure record with ambulatory blood pressure monitoring in young patients found to be hypertensive during routine medical examination before induction to high altitude areas
Authors: Sharma Munish , Pandit Anupam 
Published: September 2020

Background: Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) measurements has been found to be superior to Outpatient Department (OPD) blood pressure measurements (OBPM) for predicting clinical outcomes. There have been various indications of ABPM like to exclude white coat hypertension, evaluation of symptomatic hypotension and hypertension, pregnancy induced hypertension etc. We studied use of ABPM in evaluation of young subjects who were found to be hypertensive in OBPM.Methods: This prospective study was performed at Command Hospital, Kolkata, India from December 2017 to November 2019.This study had a total of 100 subjects. All patients were young healthy individuals and found to have high blood pressure (BP) readings during routine examination done before induction to high altitude areas (>9000 feet). All subjects who were found to be hypertensive in OBPM were evaluated with 24 hours ABPM at least one week after cessation of all medications. Data expressed as the mean±SD. Comparisons of (a) the peripheral hospital mean systolic and diastolic BP over 01 week and (b) 24 hours mean ABPM. Results: In the study, the Mean Systolic BP was 143.33±11.82 with corresponding ABPM 123.92±13.17 which is statistically significant. The mean diastolic BP was 87.30±7.20 mm with corresponding ABPM as 71.55±4.11 MAP in manual blood pressure is 125.55 mm and 103.6 mm in ABPM. The results are highly significant.Conclusions: The study concludes that automated BP recordings may provide a more accurate estimate of a patient's BP status and may prevent unnecessary labelling of young patients as hypertensive.

Introduction: With regard to the importance of the environment in sustainable development along with environmental literacy among citizens, the present study aimed to assess the levels of environmental literacy (i.e. awareness , attitudes, and practices) among citizens residing in the city of Yazd, Iran, on the subject of environmental issues and challenges.
Materials and Methods: In this descriptive--analytical study, the sample size was determined by 410 individuals as citizens aged over 18 years living in the city of Yazd based on the Cochran formula. The data selection tool was also a researcher-made questionnaire comprised of items on demographic characteristics information as well as levels of awareness, attitudes, and practices concerning the environment such as air pollution, waste management, water resources scarcity, soil pollution, etc. in 2017. Face validity verified by 10 qualified individuals as the faculty members and Reliability was confirmed by Cronbach’s alpha coefficient of 0.93. The collected data was analyzed using the SPSS 22 software through descriptive statistics along with Mann-Whitney U test, Kruskal-Wallis test, and Chi-Square test in addition to Spearman’s correlation coefficient (r). In this study, significance level was considered as 0.05.
Results: awareness score was statistically significant in terms of age, level of education, and employment status (p-value<0.05). However, attitudes were only in a significant relationship with employment status (p-value=0.004). The relationship between practice score was also statistically significant with regard to age, marital status, and area of residence (p-value<0.05). A significant relationship was further observed between age and level of income and level of awareness, but there was no significant relationship considering attitudes (p-value>0.05). Moreover, a positive correlation was found between awareness, attitude, and practice scores (0.323≥ r ≥0.28, p-value=0.000).
Conclusion: Although awareness among Yazd citizens on some environmental issues was at low levels, in general, their awareness specifically regarding health issues stemming from air pollution was proper. In view of the importance of environmental factors, it is necessary to conduct various research studies to identify and control these factors and to carry out further intervention studies to find right and proper solutions before their implementation.

Introduction: Regular exercise training with alternating volume fluctuate blood glucous levels and by regulating signaling in gene expression reduces in myocardial cell apoptosis in diabetic patients. The purpose of this study was the effect of 8 weeks of high intensity interval training on the gene expression of BAX and BCL-2 in the left ventricle of diabetic rats.
Methods: The present study was a quasi-experimental one. 14 male diabetic rats were divided into 2 groups of 7; high intensity interval training (HIIT) and control (C) groups. Diabetes was induced in a pellet with a high-fat diet (30% fat and 25% fructose) for 16 weeks. Twenty-four hours after the last training and recovery session, the rats were sacrificed and their left ventricle was extracted. Glucose oxidase was used to measure glucose in plasma and insulin resistance using HOMA-IR method.. PCR-Real time was used to determine the expression of BAX and BCL-2 genes and the comparison of the groups by Independent T test was performed by Graph pad prism at alpha level of 0/05.
Results: Results showed that, BAX gene expression was significantly decreased in the HIIT group compared to the C group (P=0/0001). BCL-2 gene was significantly increased in the HIIT group compare to the control group (P=0/0001). Insulin resistance index and plasma glucose showed a significant decrease in the training group (P=0/01) (P=0/021). Weight did not change significantly in any of the groups.
Conclusion: Based on the findings, 8 weeks high intensity interval training can be reduced apoptosis in the left ventricle of Diabetic mice by decreasing the BAX gene expression and increacing the BCL-2 in myocardial and might improve diabetes cardiomyopathy.
