The coronavirus (COVID-19) has challenged healthiness careers and techniques and has induced several rates of reaction and forms of reaction worldwide. The responsibility of dental specialists in inhibiting the transmission of COVID-19 is seriously significant. Dental professionals suffered a proper duty to decrease routine care for fear of increasing COVID-19 among their patients and elsewhere but were understandably concerned about the economic concerns. This paper explores comments raised by orthodontists worldwide about offering safe orthodontic service during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, as orthodontic treatment procedures increase the possibility of transmission. As proximity between the orthodontist, dental assistant, and patient is required for treatment, it jeopardizes the health of all the parties involved. In this paper, we will highlight five issues: general principles, communication, dental clinic admission, infection control measures, and applied orthodontic treatment emergency. Upon reviewing these issues, we will then attempt to formulate appropriate orthodontic treatment guidelines applicable in this specific era.

The government of Kenya implemented policy that advocates for the adoption of Education Management Information Systems (EMIS) in education. However, the slow extent to which EMIS is being utilized in schools needs to be adequately addressed. Thus, the purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of EMIS on Management of public secondary schools in Uasin Gishu County, Kenya. The study objective was to analyze influence of EMIS for curriculum and instruction on management of public secondary schools in Uasin Gishu County. The study adopted pragmatic philosophical paradigm and employed mixed methods research design. The target population comprised of 1334 respondents which included 183 principals, 189 deputy principals, 955 HODs in public secondary schools, 6 Sub-County Directors and 1 County Director of education in Uasin Gishu County. Kerjcie and Morgan (1970) table was used for determining the sample size of 302 respondents. Closed-ended structured questionnaire were used to collect quantitative data from principals, deputy principals and heads of departments (HODs) while semi-structured interview schedules were used to collect qualitative data from sub-county directors and the County Director of Education. Quantitative data was analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics while qualitative data was analyzed in narratives and themes. From the findings, the value of adjusted R squared was is 0.489, an indication that there was a variation of 48.9% on the management of public secondary schools in Uasin Gishu County due to effectiveness and efficiency of EMIS for curriculum and instruction. There was a significant association between EMIS for curriculum and instruction and management of public secondary schools with F statistics (248.916). Regression coefficient of curriculum and instruction was 0. 596 with P<0.05. This implies that by strengthenning EMIS for curricullum and instruction management the supervisory role of the school administration on curricullum implementation is strengthenned thus the realization of management effectiveness. Therefore, all the elements of EMIS for curriculum and instruction should be improved on and their implementation strengthened through a policy framework by the ministry of education and public secondary school management to enhance the effectiveness of management of public secondary schools.

Entrepreneurship, innovation, and youth development are some of the key themes in Oman vision 2040. Aligned with these themes is the need for entrepreneurship development among youngsters especially the educated youngsters. Keeping in view this need and relatively scant literature, the investigation of factors that can influence positively or negatively on entrepreneurship intentions among Omani youngsters is the central theme of this study. The study utilizes the entrepreneurship support model by Turker and Selcuk (2008). Accordingly, the study objectives are to test the influence of the perceived support (educational, relational, structural) model on entrepreneurship intentions among Omani youngsters. In terms of research methodology, the proposed methodology is a quantitative, cross-sectional, and explanatory research design. For data collection, a survey is used based on previously developed measures. The survey is distributed among Omani youngsters (age range of 20 to 30 years) with the help of research assistants (n=662). The reliability of the study is tested using the Cronbach alpha and the Composite reliability; while, validity is established using convergent validity (through Confirmatory Factor Analysis, Factor Loadings, and Average Variance Extracted); and discriminant validity. The key results are that the perceived educational support (β=-.022, P>.05); and perceived relational support (β=-.013, P>.05) have insignificant effects on entrepreneurship intention while the perceived structural support has positive and significant effects on entrepreneurial intention (β=.088, P<.05). The findings partially support the perceived support model in this context. A number of recommendations were put forward based on the results.

Extracts of fresh leaves of Moringa leaf (Moringa oleifera) and Pumpkin (Telferia occidentalis) were administered to broiler chickens in a study that lasted for 8 weeks to evaluate the growth performance, blood serum vitamins and minerals of the birds. A total of 210 day-old broiler chicks were randomly allocated into various pens which consisted of 7 different groups (treatments) with each one having 30 birds. Treatment 1 birds served as the control and were offered commercial synthetic multi-vitamins (vitalyte) in their drinking water. Treatment 2 birds had 50ml moringa leaf extract (MLE) per liter of water while Treatments 3 was 50ml pumpkin leaf extract (PLE) per liter of water. Treatment 4 was 100ml MLE and 5, 100ml PLE. Treatment 6 birds had a mixture or a combination of MLE and PLE (50ml MLE+50ml PLE), while treatment 7 was also a mixture of MLE and PLE (100ml MLE+100ml PLE). Commercial broiler starter and finisher feeds were offered throughout the duration of the experiment. Data were collected on feed intake, weight gain, feed conversion ratio and water intake. On the last day, blood samples were collected for serum vitamins and minerals analysis. The results showed that the extracts significantly (P<0.05) affected all the parameters assessed. Growth parameters per chicken; final live weight gain (3044.65g), daily feed intake (97.06g) and feed conversion ratio (1.84) were best in chickens given 100ml/L MLE while other leaf extracts treated birds compared favorably with the vitalyte chickens. Chickens offered moringa and pumpkin leaves extracts had higher concentrations of the assayed vitamins and minerals; vitamins A, C, D and E; potassium, calcium, magnesium and iron except for sodium. It was therefore concluded that extracts of M. oleifera and pumpkin leaves could serve as organic substitutes to the synthetic commercial multivitamins (vitalyte) in broiler chicken nutrition. Also the residual effects of the use of synthetic vitamins will be reduced.
