To assess parents knowledge and awareness about oral health and hygiene and to investigate oral hygiene practices of their children .
Materials and Methods :A questionnaire based survey was conducted among randomly selected parents of 300 children attending the outdoor Paedodontic department of Punjab dental hospital, Lahore from different cities of Punjab province. Total 300 distributed questionnaires, each having two parts were filled and returned by parents on next appointment visit of their children. The data was analyzed using SPSS software version 21.0. Ethical clearance for the study was obtained from institutional/hospital Ethical Committee.
Results:74.35% parents acknowledged the importance of oral hygiene. 35.3% parents considered good oral health important for general health. Most of the parents (64.7%) didn’t know that primary teeth affect permanent teeth and 70% of parents didn’t think that primary carious teeth require treatment. Majority of the parents (78.3% and 55.7% respectively) didn’t know that pacifiers/bottles(feeders) affect the infants /childs oral health and should be replaced by feeding cups when the child is able to hold it. 82.7% parents knew that sweet sticky food causes caries however 61.3% didn’t consider frequent intake of artically flavoured juices,beverages detrimental for oral health. Most of the parents (75%) considered tooth brushing important but 57.7% didn’t know that bedtime brushing is extremely beneficial for oral health. 62.3% parents did not know that fluoride toothpastes provide protection against dental caries and 51% of the parents didn’t consider routine dental checkups necessary. According to the data, 39.7% parents initiated teeth brushing of their children at the age of 19-24 months, followed by 25-30 months (25%). Majority of the children were supervised/ helped in cleaning teeth (92%). Most of the children were found to brush their teeth only once a day (73%). Most frequently used tooth cleaning aid was tooth brush & tooth paste (66%) followed by maswak (18% ). Most of the children spent thirty seconds on brushing (62.3%) followed by one minute (17.7%). Most of the children brush their teeth in horizontal direction (57%) followed by haphazard (34%) direction. 65.7%) of the parents didn’t remember when they last changed their child’s tooth brush. Majority of the parents (45.3%) took their child for dental visit more than one year ago and main reason for visit was pain (71%). Most of the children took sweet sticky food several times a day (65%).
Conclusion:Parents awareness about oral health and hygiene is the need of hour to improve oral health of children in our country. The results of this study lay emphasis on conduction of various educational and motivational programmes among the parents about significance of oral health and hygiene at grassroots level.

Objective: To compare the effect of magnesium sulphate in eclamptic patients receiving standard Pritchard regimen with those on low dose Magnesium sulphate.
Study Design: Randomized control trial. Setting: This study is conducted at Gynecology & Obstetrics department of Lahore General Hospital for the six months duration of study from 4th January 2018 to 3rd July 2018.
Subject and method: Through Consecutive non-probability purposive sampling, Total admitted 100 cases (50 in each group) of eclampsia after fulfilling the inclusion and exclusion criteria were included in this study. After taking informed consent, they were divided into 2 groups group A & B by random allocation based on table of random numbers. All patients in group A received standard Pritchard regimen, while those in Group B were given low dose Magnesium sulphate. Both groups received same antihypertensive medications (methyl dopa & nefidipine). Patient was observed for absence or presence of knee jerk, oliguria and seizure recurrence.
Results; In our study, only 14% of individuals who received low dose magnesium sulphate developed oliguria compared to 18% of standard Pritchard regimen (p-value = 0.585) .Similarly only 12% individuals among low dose group developed absent knee reflex compared to 14% of individuals who received Pritchard dose (p-value = 0.766). However, seizure recurrence was slightly increased among low dose group i.e., 10% compared to 8% of those who received standard Pritchard regimen (p-value = 0.727). Statistically low dose magnesium sulphate has been equally comparable for the treatment of eclampsia.
Conclusion; There is no statistical difference among the low dose group compared to Pritchard regimen, so low dose magnesium sulphate can be instituted in resource restricted areas of population where getting serum magnesium levels is not possible.

Published: May 2023

This article describes narrative criticism as a Scripture hermeneutical method according to a literature review as a result of research by several Biblical theologians. As for the substance of the biblical literature and the theologians' perceptions reviewed, the researchers selected randomly. This study uses a qualitative method built by a literature study that is in sync with the research problem. The final result of this study shows how theologians express their perception of narrative criticism as a method of biblical interpretation that emphasizes the historical story of God's salvation. The final results also show that with various perceptions, all theologians recognize the benefits of narrative interpretation of the Bible as an important part of explaining God's initiative in revealing Himself and communicating with humans. Researchers also point to a variety of strengths and weaknesses in the theologians' perceptions of the research problem. This will provide opportunities and possibilities for further research in this field, both scientifically and practically.
Real-world observations of ultrafine particles and reduced nitrogen in commercial cooking organic aerosol emissions
Authors: Kim Sunhye , Machesky Jo , Gentner Drew R. , Presto Albert A. 
Published: May 2023

Abstract. Cooking is an important but understudied source of urban anthropogenic fine particulate matter (PM2.5). Using a mobile laboratory, we measured PM size and composition in urban restaurant plumes. Size distribution measurements indicate that restaurants are a source of urban ultrafine particles (UFPs, particles <100 nm diameter), with a mode diameter <50 nm across sampled restaurants and particle number concentrations (PNC, a proxy for UFPs) that were substantially elevated relative to the urban background. The majority of observed PM was organic aerosol (OA) by mass. Aerosol mass spectra show that while emissions from most restaurants were similar, there were key mass spectral differences. All restaurants emit OA at m/z 41, 43, and 55, though the composition (e.g., the ratio of oxygenated to reduced ions at specific m/z) varied across locations. All restaurant emissions included reduced nitrogen species detected as CxHyN+ fragments, making up ~15 % of OA mass measured in plumes, with reduced molecular functionalities (e.g., amines, imides) that were often accompanied by oxygen-containing functional groups. The largest reduced nitrogen emissions were observed from a commercial bread bakery (i.e., 30–50 % of OA mass), highlighting the marked differences between restaurants and their importance for emissions of both urban UFPs and reduced nitrogen.

Lived experiences of Kashmiri pandit women :
Authors: Dhar Ashani 
Published: May 2023

Migration, whether forced or voluntary, has been an intrinsic part of the broader processes of social change across the world. However, there is a marked difference in the way different forms of migration are conceptualised and the resultant implication that it has. For instance, the difference between refugees and Internally Displaced Persons (IDP) and the expected role of the state in dealing with them. Officially termed 'migrants', the Kashmiri Pandit community – originally belonging to the now Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir, India, is a quintessential example of a community that was forcibly displaced and forced into a life of exile in their own country over three decades ago. The exilic conditions that characterised their lives have left an indelible print on their minds and have shaped their life discourses polemically, in the forms of ruptured social fabric, disoriented identity, barriers to education, healthcare and restricted labour market opportunities. Although displacement affected the entire community at large, the impact of displacement was experienced differentially. This difference stemmed from gender, the social capital they possessed, educational qualifications that they had, their place of residence (rural or urban) and the quality of social networks they had access to. The most explicit difference can be seen between those who were set up in tents that were sunk in filth and were a breeding ground for disease and ill-health versus those who were displaced but never had to live in 'migrant camps'. But even within these two groups, there are apparent differences in the lives of men and women. The challenges of everyday life are felt more acutely by women who have had to navigate the murky waters of patriarchy in addition to physical displacement. And yet, available literature on the subject is androcentric and homogenising in nature. The paper attempts to shed light on the manner and the source for the differential impact of displacement as seen through the impact of displacement on health, education and employment, which are more pronounced for women than men.
Waar zijn de menselijke belangen gebleven?
Authors: Das A. (Abhijit)

Waar zijn de menselijke belangen gebleven? Hoe de strafvorderlijke belangenafweging zich afkeerde van de maatschappelijke realiteit en waarom dat in de vroegsporing een probleem is
Het strafvorderlijke legaliteitsbeginsel dwingt er in een democratische rechtsstaat toe ook de vraag onder ogen te zien of het strafvorderlijke handelen gefundeerd is op een evenwichtige belangenafweging. Dat is weliswaar de eindverantwoordelijkheid van de wetgever, maar alle strafrechtjuristen kunnen een bijdrage leveren aan de verwezenlijking van die verantwoordelijkheid. Bestaat in het strafvorderlijke discours slechts aandacht voor de rechtmatigheid van het strafvorderlijke handelen, dan komt de legitimiteit van het strafprocesrecht onder druk te staan. Dat lijkt binnen de vroegsporing het geval te zijn.

Het slachtoffer en de maatregel tbs; de invloed van de uitbreiding van slachtofferrechten op resocialisatie en herstel
Met de invoering van de Wet straffen en beschermen en de Wet uitbreiding slachtofferrechten hebben slachtoffers extra mogelijkheden gekregen om hun beschermingsbehoeften kenbaar te maken wanneer de voorwaardelijke invrijheidstelling van de dader in het geding is. In dit artikel staat de tenuitvoerlegging van de tbs-maatregel centraal. Specifiek wordt gekeken naar het effect van de nieuwe wetgeving op zowel het slachtoffer als de tbs-gestelde, gelet op de schijnbare tegenstelling tussen slachtofferrechten en veiligheid van slachtoffers en de resocialisatie van de dader.
The EU ODR platform – A blessing in disguise

The EU ODR platform – A blessing in disguise
When individual consumers are involved in disputes with traders, they increasingly resort to consumer online dispute resolution pathways (cODR) in their search for redress. The field of cODR is quickly developing throughout Europe as an increasing number of cODR providers are entering the field and a growing number of ADR bodies are implementing digital technologies in their procedures.The development of cODR in Europe is and has been significantly influenced and facilitated by the EU legislator, driven by the aim to enhance access to justice for consumers and to strengthen consumer confidence in the internal market. In 2013, the EU legislator adopted the ADR Directive and the ODR Regulation for the purpose of harmonising the field of CDR throughout the EU. Almost a decade has passed since the EU legislative framework on consumer dispute resolution was adopted. The European legislator confirmed the revision of the ADR/ODR regulatory framework in 2023 with the aim to modernize the framework. This paper aims to evaluate the EU ODR platform, to highlight the promising potential of this platform and thereby to argue for its continuation.
The need for blockchain crowdsourced online dispute resolution (BCODR)

The need for blockchain crowdsourced online dispute resolution (BCODR)
This article discusses the problems of the current dispute resolution methods and suggests that there is a need for a paradigm shift in the field of dispute resolution and this shift can come from a new dispute resolution mechanism called Blockchain Crowdsourced Online Dispute Resolution (BCODR). The article examines two contemporary BCODR systems (Kleros and PeopleClaim) in detail and argues that those systems did not become widely used because of their reliance on cryptocurrencies and because their incentive models are based on financial remuneration. In the author’s opinion, for a BCODR to succeed, it needs to accept not only cryptocurrencies, but also fiat currencies and needs to rely on an innovative incentive model that will ensure that the BCODR system is provided either at low cost or at no cost.
Convergência entre a Metodologia de Ensino Sequência Fedathi com os Objetivos Educacionais do Domínio Cognitivo da Taxonomia de Bloom

Published: May 2023

Propõe-se neste ensaio analisar as principais convergências entre a metodologia de ensino Sequência Fedathi e Taxonomia de Bloom, no domínio dos objetivos cognitivos. O referencial teórico está pautado em estabelecer um quadro comparativo da Taxonomia de Bloom, que é uma teoria que estuda o processo de aprendizagem através de objetivos educacionais apoiados em três áreas do domínio psicológico: o afetivo, o psicomotor e o cognitivo. Este último é o que vai ser analisado neste trabalho e seus domínios são conhecimento, análise, aplicação, criação ou síntese, e avaliação originalmente; e a metodologia de ensino denominada Sequência Fedathi, definida como uma metodologia de ensino que estuda a postura de um professor quando este trabalha os conceitos dessa área com seus alunos, tornando-os participantes diretos e ativos da construção do conhecimento que está sendo aprendido e explorado. Suas etapas são: tomada de posição, maturação, solução e prova. Os resultados aproximativos de ambos campos de conhecimento didático foram que as categorias do domínio cognitivo da Taxonomia de Bloom e as etapas da Sequência Fedathi estão interligadas, de forma que: a etapa tomada de posição está ligada diretamente ao domínio cognitivo conhecimento; a etapa maturação está ligada diretamente aos domínios análise e aplicação; a etapa solução está ligada diretamente aos domínios criação ou síntese; e, por fim, a etapa prova está ligada diretamente ao domínio avaliação. As principais conclusões foram que as duas teorias podem ser fusionadas ou incorporadas no planejamento e prática didática em qualquer disciplina curricular e modalidade de ensino, pois quando ambas confluem em abordagem metodológica favorecem e potencializam a prática pedagógica com benefícios tanto quanto no ensino quanto na aprendizagem.
Anomalous salting-out, self-association and pKa effects in the practically-insoluble bromothymol blue
Authors: Avdeef Alex 
Published: May 2023

Background and Purpose: The widely-used and practically insoluble diprotic acidic dye, bromothymol blue (BTB), is a neutral molecule in strongly acidic aqueous solutions. The Schill (1964) extensive solubility-pH measurement of bromothymol blue in 0.1 and 1.0 M NaCl solutions, with pH adjusted with HCl from 0.0 to 5.4, featured several unusual findings. The data suggest that the difference in solubility of the neutral-form molecule in 1M NaCl is more than 0.7 log unit lower than the solubility in pure water. This could be considered as uncharacteristically high for a salting-out effect. Also, the study reported two apparent values of pKa1, 1.48 and 1.00, in 0.1 M and 1.0 M NaCl solutions, respectively. The only other measured value found for pKa1 in the literature is -0.66 (Gupta and Cadwallader, 1968). Experimental Approach: It was reasoned that the there can be only a single pKa1 for BTB. Also, it was hypothesized that salting-out alone might not account for such a large difference in solubility observed at the two levels of salt. A generalized mass action approach incorporating activity corrections for charged species using the Stokes-Robinson hydration equation and for neutral species using the Setschenow equation, was selected to analyze the Schill solubility-pH data to seek a rationalization of these unusual results. Key Results: BTB reveals complex speciation chemistry in saturated aqueous solutions which had been poorly understood for many years. The appear­ance of two different values of pKa1 at different levels of NaCl and the anomalously high value of the empirical salting-out constant could be rationalized to normal values by invoking the formation of a very stable neutral dimer (log K2 = 10.0 ± 0.1 M-1). A ‘normal’ salting-out constant, 0.25 M-1 was then derived. It was also possible to estimate the ‘self-interaction’ constant. The data analysis in the present study critically depended on the pKa1 = -0.66 reported by Gupta and Cadwallader. Conclusion: A more reasonable salting-out constant and a consistent single value for pKa1 have been determined by considering a self-interacting (aggregation) model involving an uncharged form of the molecule, which is likely a zwitterion, as suggested by literature spectrophotometric studies.
