Abstract: The most common odontogenic tumor is ameloblastoma which develops from epithelial cellular elements and dental tissues in various phases of development. We present case of unicystic mandibular ameloblastoma encountered by us that managed by enucleation & were allowed to heal secondary by iodoform dressing. No recurrence was detected after one year a follow-up.

Abstract: Governments all over the world collect taxes so as to finance public services. Taxpayers in Kenya display varying levels in compliance to tax. The objective of this study was to investigate the influence of tax regulations enforcement on tax compliance by Agri-business SMEs in Nyeri County, Kenya. The theory of Economic deterrence anchored the study and the study did empirical review regarding related literature. Target population in the study was owners of Agri-business SMEs in Nyeri and Karatina Towns. Sample size was of 208 SMEs owners. Descriptive survey research method was used. Stratified systematic sampling method was adopted. Proportional method of allocation was used in allocating sample size. Semi-structured questionnaire was used to collect primary data. The questionnaire’s reliability was tested through Cronbach’s Coefficient Alpha computation. Instrument’s validity test was conducted using two expert groups. Data analysis was done through Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) software. Descriptive statistics and also inferential statistics were generated. Bivariate as well as multivariate linear regression analysis generated ANOVA, correlation coefficients and Model fitness R2. Findings presentation was through graphs and tables. At 95% confidence level, the regression results generated a correlation coefficient, R=0.629 indicating a moderate positive relationship between tax regulations enforcement and tax compliance by Agri-business SMEs in Nyeri County, Kenya. Coefficient of determination, R2, was found to be 0.395 showing that 39.5% of variation in tax compliance was explained by tax regulations enforcement. The study thus concluded that tax regulations enforcement affected tax compliance among SMEs in Nyeri County. The study recommends more inspections and stiffer penalties for non-compliance. Findings of this study will be used by stakeholders including owners and employees of SMEs, government, scholars and other researchers.

Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to highlight on the effect of school governance on the prevalence of KCSE examination cheating in public and private secondary schools in Kisii County of Kenya. The study employed ex post facto and survey research design. The target population comprised of 1119 subjects comprising of principals, invigilators and examination officers drawn from 317 public and 46 private secondary schools in Kisii County. A sample of 109 principals, 218 invigilators and 10 examination officials was selected through stratified random sampling so as to participate in the study. The study utilized questionnaires to collect data. The instruments were tested for reliability and adapted after they scored 0.752 and 0.765 for the Invigilators’ questionnaire and School Principals’ questionnaire respectively. The study collected both qualitative and quantitative data. Pearson Correlation Coefficient was used with the help of SPSS to analyze quantitative data. Qualitative data was analyzed by use of descriptive analysis, by categorizing results into tables. The findings show that the current efforts put in place by KNEC to ensure compliance with the set rules and regulations to stop examination cheating in public and private secondary schools in Kisii County are not adequate. Following the findings, the study recommends that KNEC considers mobilizing resources to upscale its measures to check on examination cheating and resources to support use of modern technology to monitor KNEC examinations in Kisii County.

Abstract: This essay aims to examine the relationship between prejudice and discrimination on the basis of social dominance theory. Discrimination and prejudice are different concepts that many people experience frequently. Identities which create “we” and “other” are based on personal characteristics such as sex, age, sectarian or ethnic origin. Prejudice we feel for “others”, are the basis of discrimination. It is defined as a thought coming to mind arising from prejudgements while discrimination is behaviour of this prejudice. The theory of social dominance argues that one or more groups are more dominant and stronger than the others in the social structure and control resources. According to the theory, all social structures are prone to become group-based social layers, all societies are composed of hierarchically organized layers. While dominant social groups shape social values and have material resources or significant social symbols, the disadvantaged groups strive to have them. As a consequence, dominant groups have intention to maintain the circumstance by way of discrimination and favoring the inner group. The theory asserts that group-based social hierarchies emerge through aggregated individual discrimination, aggregated institutional discrimination and behavioral asymmetry. In this process, discriminated individuals, while reducing the values of their social identity by recalling that their groups have low position on the one hand, also make discrimination to be seen as the cause of failure instead of personal reasons.

Abstract: Diabetic neuropathy (DN) is a common complication of both type-1 and type-2 diabetes, which affects over 90% of the diabetic patients. The distal symmetrical polyneuropathy (DSPN) is the commonest clinical form of diabetic neuropathy, affecting more than 90% of the patients. Painful diabetic neuropathy (PDN) is one of the most common of all type of the long-term complication of diabetes, affecting up to 50% of patients. The most common sites of pain are in the periphery involving the feet, toes, and hands. DNP continues to represent a therapeutic challenge as its pathophysiology is not yet fully understood and pain relief is still unsatisfactory. Clinical guidelines recommend pain relief in PDN through the use of antidepressants such as amitriptyline and duloxetine, the γ-aminobutyric acid analogues gabapentin and pregabalin, opioids and topical agents such as capsaicin. Of these medications, duloxetine and pregabalin were approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2004 and tapentadol extended release was approved in 2012 for the treatment of PDN. This review does not widely discuss all possible treatments for painful neuropathy; however it provides a systematic approach designed to guide clinicians in tailoring therapies to the individual patient.

Abstract: A new effective method for pricing American option under the Black-Scholes model using pseudo inversion matrix is proposed and justified. The bases for a pseudo inversion matrix to price an American Option under the Black-Scholes model depend on the complete understanding of the discretization process and stability principles. For the past years, a lot of researchers have applied pseudo inversion matrix in solving system equations, like reconfigurable control system (RCS), Hermitian differential-algebraic system etc. This paper presents a simple pseudo inversion method for American option valuation under Black-Scholes model, through a drifted financial derivative system, discretized from Black-Scholes financial PDE. An illustrative example is given in concrete setting.
