Space Maintenance of Premature Primary Tooth Loss - An Overview
Authors: Nedeljkovic Andrija , Petrovic Marijana , Andjelic Bojan 
Published: February 2023

Abstract
Replacement of deciduous teeth with permanent teeth is a physiological process, and as a consequence of early tooth loss in deciduous or mixed dentition, loss of space may occur. There is no doubt that the loss of space after the premature extraction of deciduous molars occurs, however, the width of the lost space and the need for their clinical use are still a topic that is up for discussion. This period is an indication for the designing and installation of space maintainers. The goal of therapy in such situations is to maintain the position of the deciduous dentition in the arch until the eruption of permanent teeth takes place and those teeth take their natural and correct positions. Depending on the method of fixation, space keepers can be fixed, cemented and mobile. These devices are divided by the way they function into active (enable the increase of space by their action) and passive. Space maintainers are a bit neglected, and they represent a very important clinical treatment whose use can bring a lot of benefits, both prophylactic and therapeutic. The development of biomaterials and digitalization in dental practice can direct us to modify and improve this therapeutic method.

Aim. To study pharmaceutical awareness of the population in the rational use of medicines using innovative marketing tools.
Materials and methods. The results of an electronic survey of visitors to pharmacies using questionnaires of the author’s social project “Important facts about medicines” implemented by pharmacies are presented. The data analysis was accompanied by the use of sociological survey methods, descriptive statistics, graphic analysis, grouping methods and generalization of data.
Results. Based on the data generalization the existing correlation between the level of involving pharmacy visitors in the project with the interest in obtaining important facts about medicines was found. According to the number of responses provided by visitors during the project implementation, it can be argued that the most attractive was the information about the impact of medicines while driving, and half as attractive were the facts about the peculiarities of using medicines for children. It was determined that the most general important facts about medicines were well-known for the project participants; on average 53 % of respondents had a sufficient level of awareness. Thus, the highest level of awareness was determined regarding the side effects in case of simultaneous use of medicines and alcohol; increased blood pressure in case of medicines containing caffeine; strict compliance with the patient information leaflet for taking medicines. A sufficient number of project participants (44 % of the total number of pharmacy visitors who responded) indicated that they were aware of the facts about the peculiarities of using medicines for children under one year of age. The level of pharmaceutical awareness of pharmacy visitors concerning important facts about the effects of medicines on the human body while driving was the lowest; it was 33% among all pharmacy visitors who responded. For example, pharmacy visitors were not aware of what antihistamines should not be taken by drivers.
Conclusions. Based on the analysis a high level of self-motivation of visitors to expand the range of important knowledge about medicines and the effectiveness of innovative marketing tools to create pharmaceutical awareness of the population in issues of the rational use of medicines has been revealed.
Key words: pharmaceutical information; pharmaceutical awareness of the population; responsible self-medication; social project.

Authors: Bhat K. A. , Malik G. M. , Akhtar S. 
Published: February 2023

A new foliar disease was observed on a perennial weed Rumex crispus which grows extensively in orchards, pastures, hay crops, lawns and home gardens in Kashmir valley. Repeated Isolation of the pathogen from the infected leaves of Rumex crispus yielded the fungus which on the basis of Cultural and morphological characteristics showed a resemblance to Didymella sp. Pathogenicity was confirmed by the detached leaf technique as well as inoculating whole plants in pots. Precise confirmation of the identity of the pathogen was done by sequencing the reference genes using ITS1 and ITS4 markers and sequenced data was subjected to BLAST which showed 99.80 per cent similarity with Didymella rumicicola which was previously only reported in New Zealand on Rumex obtusifolius prior to this study. Host range, as well as bioherbicidal potential of this pathogen on hosts of five different families of cultivated crops along with Rumex plants, revealed that no disease incidence was found on host plant species of other families of cultivated crops, whereas,100% disease incidence and 80% severity were observed on Rumex crispus at 15 and 25 days after inoculation respectively. Physiological studies showed the newly isolated pathogen Didymella rumicicola showed the best radial growth on Potato dextrose agar at pH 6.5 and at a temperature of 25oC.

A Pragmatic Study of the Use of Personal Pronouns in Joe Biden's Victory Speech
Authors: Taha Rayya Faiz 
Published: February 2023

In fact, every word said by the politicians in their public speech cannot be chosen randomly. There are always different interpretations behind their choice of words.
This paper is a pragmatic study that analyzes the use of personal pronouns by the politicians in general, and in Joe Biden’s, the president of the United States, victory speech after winning the presidential election, in particular. It tries to clarify the different purposes of the politicians, particularly Biden, behind their choice of the personal pronouns.
In the introduction of this study, the researcher tries to present, define and clarify pragmatics and pronouns, with its types, more specifically the personal pronoun. Furthermore, the use of the personal pronouns in the political speech is explained followed by its pragmatic dimension. Then, some examples of the use of the personal pronoun, specifically I, we, you and they, in the American president's speech are presented and analyzed pragmatically. This study hypothesizes that any change of the use of personal pronouns by politicians change the connotation of that speech. The conclusion of this study proves this hypothesis.
Control of Large-Amplitude Combustion Oscillations Using Nanosecond Repetitively Pulsed Plasmas

Published: February 2023

This paper details the use of nanosecond repetitively pulsed discharges to attenuate combustion instabilities in a 14 kW swirl-stabilized methane/air combustor. The combustor exhibits large-amplitude pressure oscillations ranging from 1 to 4% of the mean pressure during which the flame exhibits bulk motion in each instability cycle, upstream and downstream, as revealed by high-speed chemiluminescence. Control is accomplished with an electrode comprising a pin anode at the centerline of the combustor, allowing a nanosecond spark to be generated in a region spanning close to the flame base, through the shear layers of the swirling flow and ending at the metallic combustor wall. The discharges are generated using 20 kV, 9 kHz pulses; and they correspond to about 120 W of mean power. This results in a suppression of the peak amplitude of the pressure oscillations by a factor of two to four, and 5 dB in the rms value. Using phase-averaged visualizations of the flame with and without plasma, we detail the sequence of flame motion in the course of the instability. With the plasma active, this reveals significant interactions between the flame and the plasma during the suppression. Finally, we present a state-space model of the thermoacoustic system, and we demonstrate open-loop control of the instabilities.

Authors: Patel Tarika Deepak , Uzoaru Ikechukwu , Sutton Bradley P. , Arnold Paul M. 
Published: February 2023

Background:
Myeloid sarcoma is an uncommon malignant neoplasm that typically arises at extramedullary sites and is associated with a diagnosis of acute myeloid leukemia. While myeloid sarcoma can involve any organ, central nervous system involvement is rare, particularly in the adult population.

Case Description:
An 87-year-old female presented with progressive paraparesis of 5 days’ duration. The magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed an epidural tumor from T4 to T7 with cord compression. When she underwent a laminectomy for tumor resection, the pathology revealed a myeloid sarcoma with monocytic differentiation. Although she improved postoperatively, she elected to pursue hospice care and expired 4 months later.

Conclusion:
Myeloid sarcoma is an uncommon malignant spinal neoplasm rarely seen in adults. For this 87-year-old female, MRI-documented cord compression warranted decompressive surgery. Although this patient did not opt for adjuvant therapy, other patients with such lesions may undergo additional chemotherapy or radiation therapy. Nevertheless, optimal management for such malignant tumor is still undefined.

Authors: Stroev P. V. , Dudnik A. I. , Konishchev E. S. 
Published: February 2023

The authors consider the integration of the concept of sustainability in the member countries of the Organization of the Black Sea Economic Cooperation (BSEC). The concept of sustainable development is viewed through the prism of economic, social and environmental approaches. The subject of the study is the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in the BSEC countries. The purpose of the research is to study the integration of the goals and indicators of sustainable development in the national policies of the BSECcountries. The relevance lies in the international community’s growing attention to forming a vector for balanced socio-economic development, taking into account current social, demographic and environmental factors. The scientific novelty lies in the analysis of the advancement of the concept of sustainable development in the BSEC countries, as well as the level of integration of the SDGs in the national policies of states. As part of the study, the authors used the methods of institutional analysis, system analysis, analysis of statistical data and official documents. Based on the results of the analysis, it was revealed that despite the high level of integration of the SDGs within the framework of the BSEC, not all goals and indicators of sustainable development formed by the United Nations (UN) are tracked in countries. The authors concluded that the national characteristics of the economy, the social sphere and the environmental situation push states to adapt individual indicators to national specifics.
