Background: Missing teeth can significantly affect the intercuspal position (ICP) and contribute to temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders, which in turn impact the overall masticatory function and oral health. This study investigates the effect of missing teeth on ICP and TMJ symptoms and evaluates the outcomes of prosthodontic rehabilitation. Methods: A total of 120 participants with varying patterns of tooth loss were enrolled in the study, which took place from January to December 2016 in the Department of Prosthodontics at Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University and Beau-Dent, Dhaka, Bangladesh. Results: The study included 69 males (57.5%) and 51 females (42.5%) with a mean age range of 36–50 years (40.8%). The results showed that the shift in ICP was most prominent in participants with posterior tooth loss (80%), followed by mixed tooth loss (85.7%) and anterior tooth loss (71.4%). TMJ symptoms were common, with clicking reported by 41.7% of participants, pain by 29.2%, and restricted movement by 16.7%. After prosthodontic rehabilitation, significant improvements were observed in several measures: occlusal contacts increased from 4.5 ± 1.8 to 7.8 ± 2.1 (p < 0.001), bite force improved from 150 ± 30 N to 320 ± 45 N (p < 0.001), and TMJ symptom severity decreased from 3.8 ± 1.2 to 1.2 ± 0.8 (p < 0.001). Conclusion: Missing teeth have a significant impact on intercuspal position and contribute to TMJ symptoms. Prosthodontic rehabilitation effectively restores ICP, improves bite force, and reduces TMJ symptoms.

Many studies have proven an inverse correlation between HDL rate and the risk of evolving toward an ischemic heart disease. This study’s goal is to spot patients with significantly low HDL to attempt finding new eventual elements characterizing this kind of situation, or at least, affirm the stability of those already acquired. It is a transversal study conducted in the biochemistry and toxicology department at the moulay Ismail Military hospital in Meknes over a one year period (June 2014 – June 2015). The retained patients were ones with an HDL lower than 0.20 g/l. Their medical files were taken from the appropriate services to collect on a record operating the interesting data for the study. 50 patients were taken in. Their average age was 51, 7 year old and the sex ration M/W was 1.4. The infections disease followed half of the cases, malaria being the majority with 32% of cases infections. 28% of cases were patients with cancer, 10% patients with diabetes. 6% were psychiatric diseases and 6% were malnutrition associated with inflammation cases. Hypertriglyceridemia was associated to hypoHDLemia in 46% of cases. HypoHDLemia can be transitory with acute infections and disappear along with it. Nevertheless, it can persist with chronical infections such as viral hepatitis, cancer, diabetes and psychiatric diseases, hence the value of a regular control of the lipid profile.

Nigerian economy is largely dominated by a single commodity called crude oil or simply, oil. The management of revenues from this single commoditydriven oil sector has proven ineffective in driving the economy to the required level of development. As a result, the non-oil sector of the economy has been relegated to the background. This scenario, no doubt, indicates serious negative implications on the nation‟s development equation after five decades of oil exploration activities in Nigeria. The problems inherent in this dominating single commodity are that it is not only subject to international price shocks and unfavourable quota arrangement but also depletion. The predicted rate of depletion of the oil reserve has cast doubt on the sustained development of the oil sector. Available statistics show that a good percentage of Nigerians live in abject poverty, unemployment is double-digit and productivity is at its lowest ebb. The economic development periscope of Nigeria has turned towards the non-oil sectors and the promotion of diversification. Diversification does not occur in a vacuum. The paper is purely based on literature from secondary sources, mostly review of available reports, studies and conference presentations, and also conceptual issues. The objective of this paper therefore is to seek possible ways of diversifying the productive base of Nigerian economy in order to achieve sustainable development. It zeros in on „agriculture‟, „infrastructure‟ and „human capital development‟ as options for sustainable development in Nigeria.

Abstract: Almost every verbal component can be converted to a visual one. This conversion emerges when meaning is produced by structural use of the material. In this paper there are two example which are designed by Nazmiye Ozturk. One of them is “Inflection and Surflexion”. The second one is “Equal Combinations and Structural Continuity”. Inflection, and Equal Combinations, which are constitutive concepts in Robert Venturi’s book “Complexity and Contradiction in Architecture”, are transformed into two design experiments.

Saudi banks under the guidance of SAMA, had expanded their branch network, introduced stronger management methods and new technologies, raised new capital, improved their profitability and set aside large provisions for doubtful accounts. The aim of this paper is to analyze the capital adequacy ratio and its impact on Saudi Arabian Banking Sector. We compared the Capital Adequacy Ratio of Islamic and Conventional banks listed in Tadawul Stock. After analyzing the financial statements of the banks for five years (2013-2017) the present study concluded that. Alinma Bank had the highest mean among the Islamic Banks while Samba Bank had the highest mean among the Conventional Banks. The present study also studied the BASEL III norms of banks in Saudi Arabia. The two-way ANOVA test was applied to evaluate the financial performance of Islamic and Conventional Banks. Our results also indicate that there was no significant difference between the Capital Adequacy Ratio of the Islamic and selected Saudi Conventional Banks.

Abstract: FDI is considered to be an essential catalyst for trade liberalization and economic growth in both developing as well as developed countries. From the past several-decades countries around the world are struggling to attract foreign investors for filling their capital, skills and technological gaps and consequently FDI had grown at least twice as rapidly as trade This study is an attempt to thoroughly analyze these two crucial modes of resource and knowledge diffusion for Pakistan by empirical analysis of foreign trade and FDI from 1980-2016. ARDL approach is utilized for the statistical analysis with support of various techniques applied to FDI in Pakistan being dependent variables in econometric models. The empirical results of this study shows the positive and significant effect of foreign trade in FDI of Pakistan, coinciding with theory, supported by both sign of the coefficient and probability value.

Posterior shoulder dislocations are still a challenge for the treating physician. The mechanisms of trauma are varied, which complicates diagnosis. Missed or delayed diagnosis and treatment can have serious deleterious effects on shoulder function. Here we present the case of a young patient who suffered a direct trauma on the left shoulder stump, resulting in posterior glenohumeral dislocation, irreducibly orthopedic. Preoperative CT scan and surgical exploration, performed by a delto-pectoral approach, showed the presence of “Hill-Sachs lesion” not exceeding 15% of the humeral circumference, and coming to stop against the posterior border of the glenoid cavity, without ligamentous or capsular interposition. The shoulder was stable after reduction. The surgical procedure was completed by a capsulorraphy, without the need to fill the humeral defect

Abstract: Freedom of conscience is one of the fundamental rights of people, because it implies the human freedom and dignity that are above the State. This paper seeks to ponder on the right of objection and the bioethics in medical practice, as well as the way there are other aspects to be considered such as the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the Official Mexican Regulation 046 (NOM-046-SSA2-2005) and the own right to conscientious objection.

The Islam is very clear that Minorities should be treated equally by the State which follows Islam. Fundamental rights are available to the Minorities in Islamic territories. Besides it, they are having certain special rights for the protection of their culture and religion. They have full right to profess and practice religion or faith of their choice. The State will be duty bound to protect their place of worship. They will be protected from all types of violence and aggression. The Quranic injunctions and prophetic traditions guarantee a society, where all citizens of the state enjoy equal rights irrespective of their religion.

Bangladeshi shipbuilding is a growing industry. The last decade and half of shipbuilding in Bangladesh have experienced a good growth, and the next two decades promise even greater growth as 50% of the world's seafaring ships are more than 20 years old. Additionally, the fact that older shipbuilding countries such as Japan, China, South Korea, and European countries are only interested in building commercial ships above 25, 000 DWT means that countries such as Bangladesh have a greater scope for increasing market share. Bangladesh has ample manpower, however, lacks skilled shipbuilding technicians and machinists, as well as advanced shipbuilding designing technology and personnel. The industry is working hard to address these challenges to their businesses through increasing training and development programmes. Employee turnover, however, threatens to lead to loss of knowledge and financial loss from losing trained employees. The study has presented statistical results from experience survey of industry experts to reveal that HRM malpractice, in areas such as compensation, worker safety, and job security is a potential contributor to employee turnover in the Bangladeshi shipbuilding industry.

The study investigated the academic success of secondary school students in Ondo State. The study employed the survey design technique. The population for the study consisted of secondary school students III in Ondo State. The sample of 500 students was selected using simple random sampling technique. Three Local Government Areas (LGAs) were selected from the three senatorial district in Ondo State using simple random sampling technique. Fifteen secondary schools were selected from the three LGAs using simple random sampling technique. Thereafter, 500 students were selected across the 15 schools using intact class of the senior secondary school students III. An adapted instrument titled “Personality Traits, Cognitive Styles and Academic Success Questionnaire” (PCAQ) containing four sections was used to collect data from the respondents. Data collected were analysed percentage, Pearson product correlation coefficient and multiple regressions. The results showed that 40.8% of the students possessed high level of academic success; 34.0% had moderate level while the remaining 25.2% of students demonstrated low level of academic success. The results showed that neuroticism with 45.4% was the prevalent trait among the students. Also, the results showed that 68.4% of the students employed field dependent cognitive style. Again, the results showed positive and significant relationship between openness (r = 0.991; p < 0.05); conscientiousness (r = 0.991; p < 0.05), extraversion (r = 0.989; p < 0.05), agreeableness (r = 0.984; p < 0.05) and neuroticism (r = 0.984; p < 0.05) and academic success of students. Further, it was showed that field dependent cognitive style had negative and significant relationship at (r = - 0.477; p < 0.05) while field independent cognitive style had positive and significant relationship (r = 0.989; p < 0.05). The results revealed that openness (t = 6.12; = 0.41); conscientiousness (t = -455; = -024), extraversion (t = 9.1; = 0.28); agreeableness (t = 1.66; = 0.047) and neuroticism (t = 1.92; = 0.055). Also, the results for cognitive styles showed that field dependent (t = - 11.03; = -.069) and field independent yielded (t = 7.12; = 0.00). While the results of openness, extraversion and neuroticism were significant at 0.05 level of confidence, values of agreeableness and conscientiousness were not significant. Also, both field dependent and field independent cognitive styles were significant at 0.05 level of confidence. It was concluded that more students demonstrated neurotic trait and few had high level of academic success.

Abstract: Introduction: India has a sizeable child population. The 2011 census in the first one in many decades which counted less absolute number of children in the 0-6 years age group compared to 2001 census count of 164 million children, there were 159 million children in 2011. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in the rural field practice area of Rama Medical College situated around 10 km away from Hapur. A total of 300 under six children were approached for conducting the present study, of which 296 were interviewed and selected for the study. Results: Out of 296 children 108 (36.4%) children were exclusively breast feed. Further it was observed that majority i.e. 63.43% of the children were normal in whom exclusive breast feeding was practiced. It was observed that out of the 274 fully immunized for age children a maximum i.e. 144 (52.55%) were normal. Maximum i.e. 6 of the unimmunized children were under nutrition. Majority of the children were less than 24 months of age, number of female children were slightly higher than male children. Majority of the children were Muslims followed by Hindus and only one child was Christian. Maximum number of children belonged to class IV followed by class III socio-economic class, according to modified Kuppuswamy classification. Discussion: According to occupation of the father and nutritional status. Majority of the fathers were involved in unskilled occupation or semiskilled occupation i.e. 60.13%. Unemployed fathers had a higher proportion of under nutrition children 58.33%, followed by fathers involved in unskilled /semiskilled work 151.4%. Fathers involved in semi professional/professional occupation had maximum proportion of normal children 77.78%. Conclusion: Majority of the children belonged to nuclear type of family. The literacy percentage was slightly higher in fathers than in mothers. Majority of fathers were labourers followed by clerical work or owned a shop while most of the mothers were housewives and only few of them worked as teachers or lectures. Maximum children were delivered in hospital. Majority of them had normal birth weight. Maximum children belonged to birth order one. Faulty feeding practices were also observed in this area. Primary Immunization was 92.5% in the study area with small percentage of children not being completely immunized.
