We briefly review the state-of-the-art of research on nonlinear wave propagation in disordered media. The paper is intended to provide the non-specialist reader with a flavor of this active field of physics. Firstly, a general introduction to the subject is made. We describe the basic models and the ways to study disorder in connection with them. Secondly, analytical and numerical techniques suitable for this purpose are outlined. We summarize their features and comment on their respective advantages, drawbacks and applicability conditions. Thirdly, the Nonlinear Klein-Gordon and Schrödinger equations are chosen as specific examples. We collect a number of results that are representative of the phenomena arising from the competition between nonlinearity and disorder. The review is concluded with some remarks on open questions, main current trends and possible further developments.

In the twenty first century, nanotechnology has already offered numerous possibilities in implant dentistry. One nano step for man has resulted in a giant leap in implant dentistry. The advent of nanotechnology had created an opportunity for the engineering of new dental implant materials. This technology has also been used to enhance osseointegration by surface modifications of dental implants. Nanometre-controlled surfaces have ultimately directed the nature of peril-implant tissues and improved the clinical success rate of implant therapy. The possibilities introduced by nanotechnology now permit the tailoring of implant chemistry and structure. Nanotechnology in dental implantology has emerged as a frontier research area of interest in this decade. Long thought to be commercially uninhabitable, the once-barren nanotechnology landscape suddenly looks fertile. With the support of some brightest minds in science and engineering, this emerging field of super small is now firmly on the shortlist of technologies poised to produce big things in implant dentistry. In this article, we have made an attempt to review the current trends and future prospects on the impact of nanotechnology in implant dentistry.

Introduction: Implant dentistry is one of the fastest growing specialty in the field in dentistry. Yet there is a paucity of literature regarding the prevalence and the current trends of implant dentistry practice among dentists working in Nepal. Thus, the objective of this study was to assess the prevalence and current trends of dental implants practice among the dentists working in Nepal. Method: A cross sectional, online study was done among 267 Nepalese dentists from October, 2020 to December, 2020 by convenience sampling method. Data collection was done with the help of a proforma that included socio-demographic details and predesigned questionnaire adopted from a study done in Mumbai, India.13 The questions were developed in google form and shared to the study participants through various social media for the study duration of 3 months. Results: Out of 267 participants, 142 (53.2%) were BDS, 107 (40.1%) were MDS and remaining had other degrees. Of the total participants, only 83 (31.1%) placed dental implants in their practice. Those who did not place dental implants referred the case mostly to periodontist (51.1%), followed by prosthodontist (34.8%). Only 72 (26.9%) had undergone formal implant training program. All the study participants prescribed radiograph as CBCT alone or in combination with the other radiographs. Most of the participants, who placed dental implant, did both the surgical and the prosthodontic phases. Bone level implants (74.7%), Screw retained (50.6%) and extra oral fixation (50.6%) type prosthetics were used by most of the participants. Most frequently used implant systems were Bredent (46.9%), Nobel Biocare (46.9%) and Straumann (46.9%) followed by Adin (44.5%). Conclusion: The current study showed that dental implants practice is adopted by less than one third of the dentists in Nepal, that suggests the need for implementation of Continuing Professional Development in dental implants in Nepal to increase the knowledge and skills among dental professionals.

The aim of our paper is to point out the presence of such Bulgarian writers who have been translated into Slovak after 1989 and whose life and work touch on certain aspects of the “poetics of dislocation” and the issue of “migration” and thus open questions of existence abroad, emigration or exile. Such authors and their literary characters, for example, are precisely aware of where they come from as well as the "otherness" of the new space. The presentation and interpretation of these selected translated works should then be representative and unique to the scientific field in which the research was carried out in terms of translation and original production (but in this case only with particular reference to the novel 18% Gray by Zachary Karabashliev). The study therefore aims to become a reliable document on the character, personality and intended forms of the presence of Bulgarian literature in the Slovak cultural environment. By means of summarized research we bring to the expert public new detailed knowledge about the more recent literary works of Bulgarians and their current trends and at the same time we present to the Slovak cultural public a comprehensive output about the newer literary and cultural references of Bulgarian literary works and the importance of individual artistic book translations of Bulgarian literature in Slovakia. Inevitably with such an initial "diagnosis", the first step is to name the problem, as "naming the problem" is the first stage of overcoming it. Therefore, our primary task is to testify to the whole and only later to examine the problem in detail and eventually reach the necessary and desired results.
