    Аливаа улс орны гадаад бодлого хөрш орноос эхэлдэг жамтай. Хөрш БНХАУ нь манай орны хөгжлийн чухал хүчин зүйлийн нэг мөн гэж бид үздэг учраас бүс нутгийн асуудал БНХАУ-тай салшгүй холбоотой юм. Орчин үед бүс нутгийн тухай ойлголт нийгэм, цаг үеийн хувирлыг дагаад байнга өөрчлөгдөж байна. Гэсэн хэдий ч улс орон бүр эдийн засгаа голлон хөгжүүлэх үүднээс дотооддоо бүсчилэн хувааж, гадаад бодлогынхоо хүрээнд мөн гадаад ертөнцийг бүсчилэн авч үзсээр байна.Title: Sino-Mongolian relation in border regions: Culture and Tourism issues DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.5564/jis.v0i1.37

    Building Bridges Across Cultures: A Case Study of the People-to-People Campaign, 1956-1975

    This study traces origins, operation, successes and failures of the People-to-People program featured during the second term of the Eisenhower presidency. The program was a product of and a reaction to the Cold War international conflicts that emanated from diametrically opposed ideologies of democracies and the communist world. U.S. claims to the superiority of democracy over communism were rooted in immediate post-war America's quest for world leadership. The People-to-People campaign was a government-backed popular movement, which spread in the 1950s and expanded into the 1960s. It was partially coordinated and partially funded by the United States Information Agency during its first few years, with the expectation that it would attract private as well as grassroots support once it was launched. This dissertation explores People-to-People's various programs and projects including the Sister-Cities and the University chapter as models for secular voluntary movements of ordinary citizens who were committed to improving mutual understanding between peoples from different cultures. The idealistic nature of people-to-people diplomacy, along with a wide variety of personal and social stakes associated with international travel and relations, made the People-to-People University program one of the most popular student organizations on college campuses in the 1960s. People-to-People's popularity and ideals at that time attracted young Americans and provided them with both the opportunity and the enthusiasm to interact with foreign peoples at the grassroots level. It also gave them a sense of belonging to a broader, constructive human network, which promoted an appreciation of diverse cultures and a way to contribute to building the "bonds of solidarity" among people of many nations during the contested period of the Cold War

    Get PDF
    Objective To review publications exploring non-utilization of oral health services and to identify factors associated with non-utilization of oral health services among children and adolescents. Materials and methods An integrative review design was adopted. A search was conducted for research articles published during the period from 2000 to April 2021 in five databases, Medline via Ovid, Scopus, CINAHL, Cochrane Library and Web of Science. Inclusion criteria were original articles examining non-utilization of oral health services among 0-19 years old and studies published in peer-reviewed journals in English. Thematic analysis was undertaken to identify common themes. The Newcastle-Ottawa scale was used to evaluate the quality of the studies. Results Twenty-one geographically diverse articles were included. Nineteen studies were cross-sectional, one was a prospective cohort and one a case-control study. Non-utilization of dental health services tended to be higher in children than adolescents. There were predisposing (age, gender, ethnicity, parent's level of education), enabling (family income, dental insurance) and need factors (subjective and objective oral health related parameters) that had been shown to be associated with non-utilization of dental services among children and adolescents. Conclusions This integrative review found predisposing, enabling and need factors to be associated with dental health service non-utilization.Peer reviewe

    Genetic comparison of Altai and Gobi argali sheep (Ovis ammon) populations using mitochondrial and microsatellite markers: Implication on conservation

    Argali sheep is an ungulate, which inhabits the north, west, south and central regions of Mongolia. There are two major populations (Altai and Gobi) in Mongolia, but their taxonomic classification as subspecies is often disputed among researchers. Furthermore, there is no recent study about the population genetic structure of argali sheep in Mongolia. In the present study, we have investigated genetic diversity and difference between Altai and Gobi argali populations using mitochondrial control region hyper variable segment (HVS) sequence (598bp) and 3 microsatellite markers. Mitochondrial HVS haplotype analysis showed high haplotype diversity (0.982±0.012) and low nucleotide diversity (0.02589). In microsatellite analysis, total of 9 alleles were found across all loci while mean Ho were 0.59±0.13 for Altai and 0.53±0.1 for Gobi populations, indicating low allelic diversity with moderate heterozygosity. Neighbor-joining tree separated haplotypes into two clusters, Altai and Gobi population, implying distinct genetic difference between the two subspecies. Additionally, Pairwise FST and Kimura-2 parameter showed 0.127 and 0.0413±0.0068, respectively. These genetic distance analyses hinted genetic difference between Altai and Gobi populations are in subspecies level. In summary, mitochondrial HVS and microsatellite analysis demonstrated that Altai and Gobi populations had low genetic diversity but might be genetically distinct from each other in subspecies level, suggesting conservation should be separately managed

    Factors Affecting the Incidence of Low Back Pain in Cracker Micro Small and Medium Enterprises Workers

    Get PDF
    Background: The incidence of low back pain in past workers is increasing. Low back pain is one of the musculoskeletal obstacles characterized by the onset of pain, muscle tension, or stiffness in the region behind the abdomen from the ribs to the pelvis, with or without the spread of pain to the leg zone. The incidence of low back pain is influenced by activity period, activity weight, and age. This study intends to recognize whether there is a link between activity weight, activity period, and age with low back pain events in Micro Small, and Medium Enterprises cracker workers in Wringinagung hamlet. Method: The procedure used This research is a quantitative analytic with a cross-sectional concept. Respondents in this study amounted to 78 Micro Small and Medium Enterprises cracker workers. The instruments utilized in this study were SNQ and NRS questionnaires. Information was analyzed using the Chi-Square experiment. Result: The results obtained showed an important relationship between age (p-value=0.001), and activity period (p-value=0.001). On the other hand, the result of activity weight (p-value=0.222) means that there is no significant relationship with the incidence of low back pain in workers. Conclusion: there is an important bond between age and era of activity with the formation of low back pain in workers. There is no important relationship between the occurrence of low back pain and the weight of the activity

    CHARACTERIZATION OF COAL FROM BAYANTEEG DEPOSIT

    The coal of Bayanteeg deposit was investigated and its technical characteristics, elemental and petrographical maceral compositions were determined. On the basis of proximate, ultimate, petrographic analyses results, it has been confirmed that the Bayanteeg coal is a middle-rank D mark subbituminous coal. The pyrolysis of Bayanteeg coal was studied by using a standard quarts retort (tube) at different heating temperatures and the yields of pyrolysis products such as hard residue, tar, pyrolytic water and gas were determined. The result of these experiments showed that the higher yield 14% of tar can be obtained at heating temperature 500°C.Also the thermal dissolution of Bayanteeg coal was investigated by using a standard stainless steel autoclave at different heating temperatures and the yields of pyrolysis poroducts such as hard residue, tar, pyrolytic water and gas were determined. The tetralin was used as hydrogen donor solvent with constant mass ratio between coal and tetralin (1:1.8). The results of these experiments showed that high yield of tar 48% can be obtained on thermal dissolution of the coal organic mass at 450°C. The solubility of purified pyrolysis tar of Bayanteeg coal in hexane, benzene and dichloromethane was investigated by using silica gel column and the chemical composition of each fraction was determined by using of GC/MS chromatograph system
