Objective. The prevalence of Celiac Disease (CD) is high in Iran, and evaluation of CD is not part of the routine screening procedure for dyspeptic patients; therefore, cases of occult CD may be missed. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of occult CD among dyspeptic patients who presented at a gastroenterology clinic in the Western region of Iran.Methods. In this descriptive, cross-sectional prospective study, patients who had a history of at least 12 weeks of upper abdominal discomfort were eligible to participate in the study during a 14-month recruitment period. Patients with a clinical or paraclinical data in favor of organic causes were excluded from the study. Enrolled patients were screened for IgA antiendomysium antibody (EMA) and IgA antitissue transglutaminase antibody (tTG). Those who screened positive for EMA/tTG received a confirmatory diagnostic biopsy for Marsh classification of CD.Results. From 225 potential participants with dyspepsia, 55 patients were excluded due to having explainable organic causes. The study sample included 170 patients with “functional dyspepsia.” Mean age of participants was 31 years and 55.8% were female. Twelve patients (7%) had positive tests (EMA/tTG), of which 10 were female (83.4%). According to Rome II criteria, all twelve patients with positive tests had “dysmotility type dyspepsia.” Based on Marsh classification, six patients were consistent with “Marsh I,” four with “Marsh II,” and two with the “Marsh III” classification.Conclusions. In this study, the prevalence of CD in dyspeptic patients was high. As a result, this study suggests that screening by serology tests (EMA/tTG) is justifiable for the detection of CD among functional dyspeptic patients in the tertiary centers in our country.

The history of illegal farming activities in certain forest reserves in the Western Region of Ghana demonstrates the magnitude of the problems facing conservationists, administrators and forestry personnel i n developing countries. The objective of this article is to explore briefly some of those problems and to reflect on the value of a human rights approach to environmental protection in the light of events in Western Ghana. First, the article presents evidence of the scale of illegal farming i n some forest reserves in the Western Region, before discussing the various initiatives taken since the 1960s to reserve and protect forest land in this Region. The administrative, legal and political obstacles to their success are highlighted as is the role played by competing interest groups. The implications of this analysis for the concept of environmental rights is then briefly discussed and alternative proposals for tackling this problem suggested.

A antroponímia pode revelar importantes dados sobre a história de um local e ser influenciada por momentos históricos. No munícipio de Palotina, região oeste do Paraná, houve, na década de 1970, um movimento migratório, nomeado Era da Hortelã, o qual contribuiu significativamente para a consolidação da antroponímia local. Até então, a região era colonizada por sulistas, imigrantes oriundos da região sul do país, mas, com a produção da menta, houve a imigração de pessoas que eram oriundos de outras regiões do Brasil que a não a região sul para o trabalho no cultivo da erva. Levanta-se, então, a seguinte questão: há mudança no sistema antroponímico decorrente deste movimento migratório? Com o referido questionamento e tomando por base os estudos de Vescovi (2015; 2016), intenta-se apresentar informações relativas aos sobrenomes e aos prenomes existentes no local antes e depois deste momento, considerando os estudos de Seide (2013a, 2013b, 2013c) sobre prenomes tradicionais e modismos. A análise feita demonstra que a história de uma comunidade pode ser comprovada por meio dos dados antroponímicos, pois foi possível correlacionar as mudanças antroponímicas, tanto em âmbito etimológico quanto em surgimento de outros prenomes não presentes até então, com as informações sobre a história do município.Palavras-chave: Onomástica; Antroponomástica Histórica; Era da Hortelã  Abstract Anthroponomy can reveal important data about the history of a place and be influenced by historical moments. In the city of Palotina, in the western region of Paraná, there was, in the 1970s, a migratory movement, named Era da Hortelã, which contributed significantly to the consolidation of local anthroponomy. Until then, the region was colonized by southerners, immigrants from the southern region of the country, but with the production of mint, there was an immigration of people who were from other regions of Brazil other than the southern region to work in cultivation of the herb. The question then arises: is there a change in the anthroponomical system resulting from this migratory movement? With this question and based on the studies of Vescovi (2015; 2016), it is intended to present information regarding the surnames and first names existing in the place before and after this moment, considering the studies by Seide (2013a, 2013b, 2013c) about traditional first names and fads. The analysis made shows that the history of a community can be verified through anthroponomical data, since it was possible to correlate anthroponomical changes, both in etymological scope and in the appearance of other first names not present until then, with information about the history of the city.Keywords: Onomastic; Historical Anthroponomics; Era da Hortelã

Objective: One of the most common dental injuries is dental avulsion. This study, conducted in the western region of Saudi Arabia, aimed to evaluate parent’s knowledge and attitudes regarding the emergency management of avulsed permanent and deciduous teeth in children. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among 393 parents recruited from six dental clinics and hospitals in Makkah and Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. The data were collected with a self-administered questionnaire that assesses the level of knowledge for managing deciduous and permanent avulsed teeth. Results: The total score for correct answers about managing permanent avulsed teeth had a mean of 4.77 and a standard deviation of 2.14 (out of 10 questions). With a permanent avulsed tooth, 35.37% were aware of dental reimplanting, 27.7% identified milk as an appropriate medium, and 57.5% would seek professional help immediately after dental trauma. Females and participants with a bachelor’s or higher degree had significantly higher levels of knowledge than males and participants with a high school or lower education. There were 28.5% of respondents who had a previous history of dental trauma for a child. A total of 62.1% knew that there is a difference in managing deciduous versus permanent teeth, but only 40.7% knew the proper management for deciduous avulsed teeth. Previous history of child dental avulsion was not found to be associated with more knowledge on managing avulsed deciduous or permanent teeth. Conclusion: Parents in the western region of Saudi Arabia have inadequate levels of knowledge to manage deciduous and permanent tooth avulsion. More efforts should be applied for conducting promotional health campaigns aimed at improving parents’ knowledge.

Understanding of crop water requirement is essential for irrigation scheduling and selection of cropping pattern in any particular area. A study was conducted to estimate irrigation requirement and made irrigation scheduling of T. Aman (wet season) and Boro (dry season irrigated) rice in the western region of Bangladesh using CROPWAT model. Historical climate data from three weather stations in the region along with soil and crop data were used as input to FAO Penman-Monteith method to estimate reference evapotranspiration (ETo). Effective rainfall was calculated using USDA soil conservation method. The model estimated1408 mm annual ETo in the study area, of which the highest amounts of 175 mm was in April and the lowest (70 mm) in December. The average annual rainfall was 1592 mm of which 986 mm was effective for plant growth and development. The model estimated ETc of BRRI dhan49, which was 473 to 458 mm, depending on its transplanting dates from 15 July to 15 August. Rice transplanted on 15 July required no irrigation, whereas three supplemental irrigations amounting 279 mm were required for transplanting on 15 August. The CROPWAT model estimated seasonal irrigation water requirement of 1212 mm (12 spilt applications) for BRRIdhan28 transplanted on 15 January. This model has also a potentiality to make irrigation scheduling of other crops. The Agriculturists 2017; 15(1) 19-27

Process and Reality ends with a warning: ‘[t]he chief danger to philosophy is narrowness in the selection of evidence’ (PR, 337). Although this danger of narrowness might emerge from the ‘idiosyncrasies and timidities of particular authors, of particular social groups, of particular schools of thought, of particular epochs in the history of civilization’ (PR, 337), we should not be mistaken: it occurs within philosophy, in its activity, its method. And the fact that this issue arises at the end of Process and Reality reveals the ambition that has accompanied its composition: Whitehead has resisted this danger through the form and ambition of his speculative construction. The temptation of a narrowness in selection attempts to expel speculative philosophy at the same time as it haunts each part of its system.
