The aim of this study was to determine vertical transmission of Sterptococcus mutans (S. mutans) genotypes in mother-child pair. The present study was conducted on 60 mother-child pair saliva samples having at least three carious teeth. All enrolled preschool children were divided into two age groups Group-1 (1-3 years) and Group-2 (4-5 years). Stimulated saliva samples were collected from all enrolled subjects. After isolation of S. mutans DNA, Arbitrarily Primed Polymerase Chain Reaction (AP-PCR) and genotyping methods (with primers for the glucosyltransferase gene) were used to identify the matching and non-matching patterns of S. mutans genotypes transmitted from mother′s to their child. Statistical analysis showed 75% matching genotypes were found in Group-1 mother-child pair and 65 % was reported in Group-2 mother-child pair suggesting the presence of vertically transmitted strains of S. mutans higher in Group-1.

Despite the vast research in financial literacy and financial education, little is known about the effectiveness of the education programme that was conducted to increase the financial literacy among Malaysian. The high number of bankruptcy as the highest bankruptcy case was related to hire purchase loans and personal loans are among the crucial financial issues in Malaysia. Hence, this study was conducted to investigate the financial literacy, attitude and practices of those who attended POWER! programme and not attended. Data were obtained through on-line survey (n=677) and during Minggu Amanah Saham Malaysia. The findings include that after 6 months attended POWER! programme the participants have a higher financial knowledge. In addition, those who attended POWER! programme had positive attitude towards financial matters although mix result was observed. On the other hand, the control group have better in basic financial behaviour. Consequently, interview should be conducted to gain more understanding on the impact of POWER! programme, a detailed module on specific personal finance need to be developed and further study on financial attitude and behaviour is needed.

The aim of this study was to isolate Staphylococcus aureus from samples of raw bovine milk obtained from different farms and to determine their antibiotic susceptibility patterns. A total of 144 milk samples were collected and screened for the presence of S. aureus. Antibiotic susceptibility was determined qualitatively using the Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion method. Piperacillin showed maximum resistance rate 62.90%, 61% isolates were resistant to Ceftazidime, 50% to Cephalothin, 48.38% to Gentamicin, 46.77% to Novobiocin, 43.54% to Amikacin and 40.32% to Cetoperazone. Only 9.67% of the isolates were found resistant to Erythromycin. S. aureus is normally resident in humans, therefore, the S. aureus present in cows may have resulted from transmission between the two species, emphasing the need to improve sanitary condition in the milking environment.

This study seeks to investigate the existence and effectiveness of various forms of culture of school improvement in a secondary school. This school was selected as, it was labelled as a low performing school. Quantitative research design was employed for this study. The teachers were the participants, who voluntarily completed the School Cultural Elements Questionnaire. The findings suggested that out of six, culture of school improvement, only two existed and were positive. The other four did not exist or were very weak. The outcome could be helpful for the administrators of school for uplifting their school culture. There are limitations associated with the finding, as this study just concentrated on a single school, future studies can include more schools from the district.

The incidence of atypical fractures associated with prolonged bisphosphonate therapy has increased because of widespread use for treatment of osteoporosis. They can occur following a minimal or no trauma andpresents as thigh or groin pain. Because of the atypical presentation of these fractures, they may go unnoticed for weeks to months before presenting with a completed femoral fracture. So it's important to keep the overall balance of risks and benefits of bisphosphonate therapy. For some people, the benefits of the bisphosphonate therapies far outweigh the risks involved. The purpose of this article is to highlight the clinico-radiological features leading to early detection and management of such atypical fractures

Abstract: Junggar basin is an inland basin with a roughly triangular shape. Since the formation of the basin from the Late Carboniferous, sedimentary formation developed in Upper Carboniferous to Quaternary.The exploration area in the hinterland of Junggar basin is huge. The prediction of favorable area of exploration activity in the next step becomes a crucial question. Multi-factor matching model for hydrocarbon accumulation is an effective and reliable method to predict the favorable distribution area of hydrocarbon reservoir, in this paper, we will use the multi-factor matching model for hydrocarbon accumulation, we set up a quantitative mathematical model of controlling reservoir of each main controlling factor and weighted average of four single factor controlled reservoir probability to get the functional factors integrated control of possession probability index and the favorable accumulation area of the Jurassic reservoir in Junggar basin is predicted.

Hypertension is an important public health- challenge in the developing and the developed world alike. However, hospital-based studies on cardiovascular diseases including hypertension in a developing country like Nepal have been limited. Objective: The objective of the present study was to determine the awareness of hypertensive patient about self-care and complication management. Methods: A total of 50 adult hypertensive patients over who attend in medical outpatient department and in patient department of Manomohan Cardiovascular Thoracic and Transplant Centre, Tribhuwan University Teaching Hospital, Kathmandu, were included using a descriptive research design. The data was collected by face to face interview, using a questionnaire consisting of a combination of structured and semi- structured questions from 8 April 2012 to 6 May 2012A.D. This study shows that only 14% of respondents were aware about hypertension while highest number of respondents (56%) was moderately aware about it. Only 15% of respondents were unaware about it. Total awareness score is 45. Average level of awareness is 27.14. It can be concluded that the awareness level of hypertensive patients is still low. The modification of life style is satisfactory for most risk factors, except for few like salt intake, additional salty food. So Focus should also be given on modification of lifestyle for reducing the adverse consequences of hypertension. Data analysis was done by using SPSS 16 version

Normal pregnancy is associated withchanges in lipid metabolism and high metabolic demand accompanied by elevated tissue oxygen requirements and increased oxidative stress. The present study was carried outto evaluate lipid profile and total antioxidant status in pregnant women at UCTH, Calabar, Nigeria. Serum lipid profile and total antioxidant capacity were estimated in ninety (90) apparently healthy pregnant women aged between 18 and 40 years and thirty non-pregnant controls. Test subjects were divided into three trimesters based on their gestational age. Blood samples were collected from all recruited participants; total antioxidant capacity and lipid profile were analyzed using colorimetric methods. Lipid profile parameters and TAC varied among the various trimesters of pregnancy and in the controls (P<0.05). Controls had significantly higher mean values of TAC compared to the 2nd and 3rd-trimester group (P<0.05). The first trimesters group had higher TAC and lower mean total cholesterol and LDL-C compared to the 2nd and 3rd-trimester group (P<0.05). Third-trimester group recorded higher mean value of TG compared to the 1st trimester and control group (P<0.05). Pregnancy and increasing gestational age may be associated with decreased total antioxidant capacity and increased TC, LDL-C and TG

Abstract: The low order faults lead the oil-water relationship of oil-bearing block reservoirs complicated, especially in those blocks that show poor continuity of single sand spatial distribution and obvious heterogeneity of sand internal structure. The recognition of low order faults plays an important role in finding favorable well location and solving injection contradictions. Based on a single anticlinal structure of Wei 21 Block in Weixing oil field, this article investigates and analyses the relative variation trend of Putaohua top location reflected in the well information of named well line by using the dense well pattern material of Putaohua reservoir group, and achieves the goal of low order fault recognition in this block effectively in conjunction with seismic profiles, so as to provide foundations in designing interspaced well project.
