Background with rationaleEvery year all 32 local authorities in Scotland provide information on looked after children in their area to the Scottish Government. This forms the basis for the annual Children Looked After Statistics (CLAS). Information is also collected by Scottish Children’s Reporter Administration (SCRA) on all children who are involved in the Children’s Hearings System. Until now these two data sets had never been linked. Main Aim To test the feasibility and success of the linkage on the basis that these datasets had not previously been linked, and if linkage was possible, use this data to enhance our understanding of the child and process factors associated with pathways to permanence or lack of permanence. Methods/ApproachVeterans were identified using the South London and Maudsley Biomedical Research Centre (SLaM) case register – a database holding secondary mental health care electronic records for the South London and Maudsley National Health Service Trust of 300,000 patients. We developed two methods. An NLP and machine learning tool were developed to automatically evaluate personal history statements written by clinicians. ResultsFor the first time, as part of the Permanently Progressing? Building secure futures for children in Scotland study, these two data sets were linked safely and successfully for 1,000 children who became looked after in 2012-13 when they were aged five and under. The linkage provided important new information for practitioners and policymakers. In this presentation we will focus on the key findings, such as what it told us about previous referrals and methodological insights regarding these data sets and their linkage. ConclusionThe data linkage process was complex and time-consuming but possible. The data we were able to link provided valuable information that enhanced our understanding of child and process factors.

Археологическое исследование крепостного рва юго-восточной части Окольного города Псковской крепости позволило получить новую информацию по его хронологии и периодизации. Раскопками впервые были изучены значительные по площади участки рва и городского посада. В ходе исследований установлен порядок и время засыпки рва, реконструированы его границы длиной более 80 м, выделены периоды бытования, определены конструктивные особенности отдельных участков. В составе крепостного рва периода реконструкции крепости начала XVIII в. выделены участки первоначального рва, ширина которого составляла более 20 метров. Archaeological research of the South-Eastern part of the suburb of Pskov fortress moat allowed the researchers to obtain new information on its chronology and periodization. Significant areas of the moat and the suburb have been excavated for the first time. The archaeological study has established the way and the time of the moat filling. The boundaries with a length of over 80 m were reconstructed, the periods of existence allocated, structural features of particular parts determined. The areas of the original moat, more than 20 meters wide, were singled out within the fortress moat of the reconstruction period of the early XVIIIth century

The gate church of the Theodorite castle near the village of Funa appeared in 1459 and existed to 1778. Left unattended later on, it became decayed, quickly dilapidated, and finally turning into ruin after the earthquake of 1927. The experts’ conclusions concerning its origin are based mainly on the typical features of the architectonics and carved decoration of the structure, correlated with the traditions of Armenian architecture and Seljuk ornamentation. The most exquisite architectural detail of the building is the large slab with relief ornamentation that overlapped from outside the doorway of the south entrance. Two iconographic sources are published for the first time to supply new information about the slab in question along with the results of a substantive study of a large fragment of the artefact which was found by chance outside the castle short time ago. Almost a half of the composition that adorned the outermost part of the architrave survived. Its completely lost middle part can be reconstructed reliably by the photograph taken by N. N. Klepinin and the drawing by D. M. Strukov. The ornamental motif of the slab is one of the most popular in mediaeval art, being typical of the eastern decorative tradition. It is still not possible to discover the origin and exact date of the architrave which was secondary used in the church of 1459. Stylistically, structurally, and technologically it is comparable with carved architectural details of many main buildings of the capital town of Theodoro, which were erected in the 1420s. Therefore, the slab in question possibly has the same chronology, but still it could be made even earlier.

Background As the population ages the demand for care is predicted to increase. Previous studies have reported that individuals with poorer post-morbid cognitive ability are at higher risk of entering long-term care, both institutionalised care and home-based care. Given that post-morbid cognitive ability is sensitive to the type and severity of morbidity, it remains unclear whether higher cognitive ability, as a trait-level measure of individual differences, contributes to care usage. Some success has been observed using non-cognitive early-life circumstances such as socioeconomic circumstances as pre-morbid predictors of care risk. However, the contribution of early-life cognitive ability has yet to be examined. Main Aim We investigate the association between early-life circumstances, particularly cognitive ability, and the risk of entry into long-term care in later life (age 65+). Methods Veterans were identified using the South London and Maudsley Biomedical Research Centre (SLaM) case register – a database holding secondary mental health care electronic records for the South London and Maudsley National Health Service Trust of 300,000 patients. We developed two methods. An NLP and machine learning tool were developed to automatically evaluate personal history statements written by clinicians. Results This study uses a large sample of individuals born in Scotland in 1936 and who took part in the Scottish Mental Survey 1947. It links research data from childhood to routinely-collected administrative and healthcare records from across the life course. Conclusion We demonstrate the importance of early-life factors for predicting care usage in later life and how this role differs between types of long-term care. The implications of the results for research and policy will be discussed.

A manuscript memoir of Hugh Miller (1802–1856), geologist, writer and newspaper editor, is attributed to his son Hugh Miller FGS (1850–1896). It is published here, apparently for the first time. It was written sometime in 1881–1896, more probably 1882–1895. Its intended place of publication is discussed. It is an interesting contribution to Miller biography, written by a family member and providing some new information and anecdotes.

Information on the Sphagnum mosses of the South Ossetia is generalized, the resulted list is presented. Nine species of Sphagnum are included in the list, whereabouts data and references to the publications are given, and the presence of a sample in the Herbarium of the Komarov Botanical Institute RAS (LE) is noted. The species Sphagnum platyphyllum (Lindb. ex Braithw.) Warnst. rarely occurring in the Caucasus is reported in the South Ossetia for the first time. The species was found in the Caucasus, South Ossetia, at the side of the Ertso Lake (42°28ʹN, 43°45ʹE), 1720 m a. s. l., among sedge thickets at the margin of the overgrowing lake. The peculiarities of its occurrence and ecological conditions are considered. Its distribution in the Caucasus and in the world is discussed.
