Of this population, the ten eldest members of each monastery are known as the Daśa Sthavira Ājus (Ten Elders of the Highest Esteem). Because of their position, these Ājus are the ritual specialists for their communities and serve as exemplars of the monastic ideal in Newar society. This paper explores the ways in which Newar Buddhists at the Kwā Bahā monastic complex in Patan, Nepal, utilize ceremonial dress to reinforce their Buddhist identity and publicly reaffirm their ancient Buddhist heritage in Nepal. This study, the first to analyze the Ājus’ ceremonial regalia, provides an analysis of the garments, headdresses, and ornaments worn by these figures to explain the ways in which dress embeds Buddhist iconographic symbolism into Newar visual culture. Additionally, this paper demonstrates that the ritual veneration of the Ājus gives their regalia agency, reinforcing their public, ritual role as living embodiments of buddhahood.

Childbirth practices differ from place to place and are determined by availability and accessibility of health services. After National Health Policy (1991), Nepal has focused on safe motherhood policies and programmes. Maternal mortality ratio decreased nearly fourfold between the years 1990 to 2011. The country is likely to achieve the Millennium Development Goal (MDG) 5. However, indicators of the MDG 5: skilled care at birth and institutional delivery rates are very far from the targets.

Sistem pemerintahan ini tentu membuat Nepal tertutup terhadap dunia luar, dalam artian hanya menggantungkan kebutuhan ekonomi negaranya terhadap sektor pertanian dalam negara tersebut. Namun sektor pertanian di Nepal tidak sebesar itu untuk kemudian dapat dijadikan sumber utama dalam memenuhi kehidupan ekonomi negaranya. Hal ini disebabkan oleh sempitnya lahan di Nepal itu sendiri yang diperburuk oleh keterbatasan fasilitas serta teknologi modern yang pada dasarnya menjadi penopang sektor pertanian. Sistem politik yang menutup diri ini, atau biasa disebut sebagai politik isolasionis turut memperburuk keadaan sosial masyarakat di Nepal, dimana hingga tahun 1950 Nepal tidak memiliki fasilitas layanan publik seperti rumah sakit, jaringan telekomunikasi, jaringan listrik, dan kompleks industri. Hal ini menjadi tekanan tersendiri hingga pada puncaknya membuat Nepal mulai membuka diri dan turut dalam aktivitas perekonomian dunia di tahun 1991. Selain itu, apabila disoroti dalam perihal penegakan HAM di dalam masyarakatnya, Nepal masih amat sangat kental dengan budaya diskriminasi kasta dan kesenjangan sosial. Sebagai gambaran, sekitar 35% penduduk Nepal berasal dari kasta Dalit, kasta yang dianggap sebagai kasta terendah, layaknya kasta Sudra dan Paria di India. Kasta Dalit dalam tatanan masyarakat penduduk Nepal hanya diperbolehkan menjadi pekerja kasar, seperti pandai besi, penjahit, tukang semir sepatu, dsb.

Working with USAID/Nepal implementing partners, we adapted a sustainability assessment framework to help USAID test how an evaluation tool could inform its health portfolio management. The essential first process step was to define the boundaries of the local system being examined. This local system—the unit of analysis of the study—was defined as the health district.We developed a standardized set of assessment tools to measure 53 indicators. Data collection was carried out over 4 weeks by a Nepalese agency. Scaling and combining indicators into six component indices provided a map of progress toward sustainable maternal, child, health, and family planning results for the five districts included in this pilot study, ranked from “no sustainability” to “beginning of sustainability.”We conclude that systematic application of the Sustainability Framework could improve the health sector investment decisions of development agencies. It could also give districts an information base on which to build autonomy and accountability. The ability to form and test hypotheses about the sustainability of outcomes under various funding strategies—made possible by this approach—will be a prerequisite for more efficiently meeting the global health agenda.

Three urine samples were collected by the mid-stream \u0026quot;clean catch\u0026quot; method from 1,680 clinically-suspected cases of urinary tract infections from inpatients of various clinical departments during one year. The samples were tested microbiologically by standard procedures. Antibiotic susceptibility of the isolated pathogens was tested for commonly-used antibiotics by Kirby-Bauer technique according to NCCLS guidelines. Significant bacteriuria was present in 71.7 percent of the samples, 17 per...","downloadable_attachments":[{"id":65834536,"asset_id":45274666,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false}],"ordered_authors":[{"id":631745,"first_name":"Hari Shanker","last_name":"Joshi","domain_name":"mjpru","page_name":"HariShankerJoshi","display_name":"Hari Shanker Joshi","profile_url":"https://mjpru.academia.edu/HariShankerJoshi?f_ri=16946","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/631745/218065/254733/s65_hari_shanker.joshi.jpg"}],"research_interests":[{"id":16946,"name":"Nepal","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Nepal?f_ri=16946","nofollow":false},{"id":22506,"name":"Adolescent","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Adolescent?f_ri=16946","nofollow":false},{"id":64568,"name":"Humans","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Humans?f_ri=16946","nofollow":false},{"id":64933,"name":"Child","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Child?f_ri=16946","nofollow":false},{"id":83128,"name":"Escherichia coli","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Escherichia_coli?f_ri=16946"},{"id":98925,"name":"Female","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Female?f_ri=16946"},{"id":111545,"name":"Male","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Male?f_ri=16946"},{"id":112322,"name":"Klebsiella","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Klebsiella?f_ri=16946"},{"id":113903,"name":"Bacteria","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Bacteria?f_ri=16946"},{"id":115151,"name":"Microbial genetic and drug resistance","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Microbial_genetic_and_drug_resistance?f_ri=16946"},{"id":134346,"name":"Infant","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Infant?f_ri=16946"},{"id":158884,"name":"Urinary Tract Infections","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Urinary_Tract_Infections?f_ri=16946"},{"id":192721,"name":"Risk factors","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Risk_factors?f_ri=16946"},{"id":295155,"name":"Middle Aged","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Middle_Aged?f_ri=16946"},{"id":382075,"name":"Adult","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Adult?f_ri=16946"},{"id":561014,"name":"Microbial Sensitivity Tests","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Microbial_Sensitivity_Tests?f_ri=16946"},{"id":620049,"name":"Risk Factors","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Risk_Factors-1?f_ri=16946"},{"id":2489700,"name":"Child preschool","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Child_preschool?f_ri=16946"},{"id":3763225,"name":"Medical and Health Sciences","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Medical_and_Health_Sciences?f_ri=16946"},{"id":3854113,"name":"Cross Infection","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Cross_Infection?f_ri=16946"}]}, }) } })();</script></ul></li></ul></div></div><div class="u-borderBottom1 u-borderColorGrayLighter"><div class="clearfix u-pv7x u-mb0x js-work-card work_40793520" data-work_id="40793520" itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"><div class="header"><div class="title u-fontSerif u-fs22 u-lineHeight1_3"><a class="u-tcGrayDarkest js-work-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/40793520/Best_season_to_visits_in_Nepal">Best season to visits in Nepal</a></div></div><div class="u-pb4x u-mt3x"><div class="summary u-fs14 u-fw300 u-lineHeight1_5 u-tcGrayDarkest"><div class="summarized">There is a bundle of queries by the tourist about “When is the best season to visit in Nepal?” The main time almost rapid traveler travel Nepal is the Autumn season of late September to late November at this time the weather is dry and... <a class="more_link u-tcGrayDark u-linkUnstyled" data-container=".work_40793520" data-show=".complete" data-hide=".summarized" data-more-link-behavior="true" href="#">more</a></div><div class="complete hidden">There is a bundle of queries by the tourist about “When is the best season to visit in Nepal?” The main time almost rapid traveler travel Nepal is the Autumn season of late September to late November at this time the weather is dry and clear.

VIIIth Semester), TU/IAAS, Rampur, Chitwan<br /><br />ABSTRACT<br />Breeding is an important tool for genetic improvement of farm animals to increase production potentials and improve reproductive efficiency. Focusing on these facets, a present study has been carried out mainly aiming at assessing the existing breeds of small ruminants in mountain region of Nepal highlighting on breeds’ information, reviewing existing policies and practices of small ruminants’ breeding focusing to Himalayan region, identifying challenges and opportunities of genetic improvement of small ruminants in this region.  The study is mainly based on the review of available literatures including journals, proceedings, dissertation reports, technical reports, progress reports of working scientists, academicians, District Livestock Service Offices, NGOs and other concerned stakeholders, respectively. Most of the literatures suggested that sheep and goats are the main small ruminants being reared in the mountain region since time immemorial for the economic, food and nutritional security and even as a means of transportation in various instances. Out these eight genetic resources of sheep and goat in Nepal, Baruwal and Bhyanglung of sheep and Chyangra and Sinhal of goat are being reared in the himalayan region of Nepal. Study also revealed that Nepal has already develoed various policies related to livestock improvement including Nepal Animal Genetic Resource Management and Utilization Policy and Strategy (2002), Animal Breeding Policy (2001; amended 2012), Long Term Action Plan of Animal Genetic Resources in Nepal (2011-2021) and many livestock improvement programs in the past. Besides, livestock breeding and farm animal genetic resource conservation has given priority in each periodic development plans of government. However, scientific breeding practices are being poorly implemented in the developing countries like Nepal. Furthermore, situation of livestock breeds and breeding in himalayan region, where it is accepted as one of the major source of household income and basis of peoples’ livelihood, could hardly be compared to that of other geographical regon of the country. Breeding small ruminants in the himalayan region of Nepal still  based on indigenous knowledge and traditional practices leading to decreased production and productivity due to inbreeding since centuries. Selection is being rarely practiced under transhumance herds due to free ranging and uncontrolled herding.

Bhattarai1, C.R. Pathak2, and I. Dhakal2\n1. Asst. Professor, Department of Animal Breeding and Genetics, FAVF/AFU, Rampur, Chitwan\n2. Undergraduate students (B.V.Sc.\u0026A.H. VIIIth Semester), TU/IAAS, Rampur, Chitwan\n\nABSTRACT\nBreeding is an important tool for genetic improvement of farm animals to increase production potentials and improve reproductive efficiency. Focusing on these facets, a present study has been carried out mainly aiming at assessing the existing breeds of small ruminants in mountain region of Nepal highlighting on breeds’ information, reviewing existing policies and practices of small ruminants’ breeding focusing to Himalayan region, identifying challenges and opportunities of genetic improvement of small ruminants in this region. The study is mainly based on the review of available literatures including journals, proceedings, dissertation reports, technical reports, progress reports of working scientists, academicians, District Livestock Service Offices, NGOs and other concerned stakeholders, respectively. Most of the literatures suggested that sheep and goats are the main small ruminants being reared in the mountain region since time immemorial for the economic, food and nutritional security and even as a means of transportation in various instances. Out these eight genetic resources of sheep and goat in Nepal, Baruwal and Bhyanglung of sheep and Chyangra and Sinhal of goat are being reared in the himalayan region of Nepal. Study also revealed that Nepal has already develoed various policies related to livestock improvement including Nepal Animal Genetic Resource Management and Utilization Policy and Strategy (2002), Animal Breeding Policy (2001; amended 2012), Long Term Action Plan of Animal Genetic Resources in Nepal (2011-2021) and many livestock improvement programs in the past. Besides, livestock breeding and farm animal genetic resource conservation has given priority in each periodic development plans of government. However, scientific breeding practices are being poorly implemented in the developing countries like Nepal. Furthermore, situation of livestock breeds and breeding in himalayan region, where it is accepted as one of the major source of household income and basis of peoples’ livelihood, could hardly be compared to that of other geographical regon of the country. Breeding small ruminants in the himalayan region of Nepal still based on indigenous knowledge and traditional practices leading to decreased production and productivity due to inbreeding since centuries. Selection is being rarely practiced under transhumance herds due to free ranging and uncontrolled herding. Programs for upgrading for improving the production and productivity of small ruminants from government and other stakeholders’ side are little been carried out in the mountain flocks. Because, several challenges of livestock breeding lie on addressing dreadful geography, developing physical infrastructure, retaining skilled human resources, developing niche specific breeding scheme, technology adoption and its sustainability by farming communities in the himalayan region. However, these challenges provide a virgin area to the breeders, scientists, researchers and academicians to work on breeding of small ruminants in future to come.\n\nKey words: Small Ruminants, Breeding, Indigenous AnGR, Selection\n","downloadable_attachments":[{"id":39907161,"asset_id":18160054,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false}],"ordered_authors":[{"id":11758770,"first_name":"Ishwor","last_name":"Dhakal","domain_name":"tu-bg","page_name":"IshworDhakal","display_name":"Ishwor Dhakal","profile_url":"https://tu-bg.academia.edu/IshworDhakal?f_ri=16946","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/11758770/3385429/11893644/s65_ishwor.dhakal.jpg"}],"research_interests":[{"id":16946,"name":"Nepal","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Nepal?f_ri=16946","nofollow":false},{"id":146682,"name":"Animal Breeding","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Animal_Breeding?f_ri=16946","nofollow":false},{"id":721269,"name":"Small Animal Practice","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Small_Animal_Practice?f_ri=16946","nofollow":false},{"id":1076804,"name":"Genetic Improvement","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Genetic_Improvement?f_ri=16946","nofollow":false},{"id":2209432,"name":"Livestock Production in Himalayan region","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Livestock_Production_in_Himalayan_region?f_ri=16946"}]}, }) } })();</script></ul></li></ul></div></div><div class="u-borderBottom1 u-borderColorGrayLighter"><div class="clearfix u-pv7x u-mb0x js-work-card work_59530271 coauthored" data-work_id="59530271" itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"><div class="header"><div class="title u-fontSerif u-fs22 u-lineHeight1_3"><a class="u-tcGrayDarkest js-work-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/59530271/Paola_Tin%C3%A9_Maya_s_Story_Immagini">Paola Tiné - "Maya’s Story" - Immagini</a></div></div><div class="u-pb4x u-mt3x"><div class="summary u-fs14 u-fw300 u-lineHeight1_5 u-tcGrayDarkest"><div class="summarized">Immagini del saggio: Paola Tiné, “Maya’s Story.

The world’s demands for fish products indicate sign of increasing. This study delves into the analysis of production, marketing, and strategies for enhancing production and marketing of the fishery products. Secondary data for production and trade value were collected from different organizations, websites, and journals and were analyzed in Microsoft Excel. Over the years, rearing of different fish species has been rising worldwide, including Nepal. Marine, along with inland fisheries is getting profitable market, globally. Being a landlocked country, Nepal’s fish farming is solely limited to inland water resources. So, the domestic fish production is very few which is unable to meet the national demand. The fisheries, at national level, remarkably expanded than the previous decades and total production, trade, and consumption reached an all-time record in 2018. It has provided employment to millions of people across the world. Still many challenges have often hindered the production and marketing. Climatic changes, technological constraints, disease outbreaks, water temperature fluctuations, high cost of inputs, marketing constraints such as unmanaged distribution networks, lack of storage facilities, etc., have lowered down the fishery development. Keeping this point in view, this review was performed to provide the relevant solution of production and marketing strategies to the fishery industry, helping them to enhance the production and make perfect level of distribution. Marketing mix of marketing strategies and SWOT analysis for both production and marketing was performed.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/44759834" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="ad244f45e5a80d901eb8a87396d3f860" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":65249958,"asset_id":44759834,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/65249958/download_file?st=MTczMjQxMjQwMSw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="127312614" href="https://independent.academia.edu/SaugatKhanal2">Saugat Khanal</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="127312614" type="text/json">{"id":127312614,"first_name":"Saugat","last_name":"Khanal","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"SaugatKhanal2","display_name":"Saugat Khanal","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/SaugatKhanal2?f_ri=16946","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/127312614/55094127/43261822/s65_saugat.khanal.jpg"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_44759834 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="44759834"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 44759834, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_44759834", });

The world’s demands for fish products indicate sign of increasing. This study delves into the analysis of production, marketing, and strategies for enhancing production and marketing of the fishery products. Secondary data for production and trade value were collected from different organizations, websites, and journals and were analyzed in Microsoft Excel. Over the years, rearing of different fish species has been rising worldwide, including Nepal. Marine, along with inland fisheries is getting profitable market, globally. Being a landlocked country, Nepal’s fish farming is solely limited to inland water resources. So, the domestic fish production is very few which is unable to meet the national demand. The fisheries, at national level, remarkably expanded than the previous decades and total production, trade, and consumption reached an all-time record in 2018. It has provided employment to millions of people across the world. Still many challenges have often hindered the production and marketing. Climatic changes, technological constraints, disease outbreaks, water temperature fluctuations, high cost of inputs, marketing constraints such as unmanaged distribution networks, lack of storage facilities, etc., have lowered down the fishery development. Keeping this point in view, this review was performed to provide the relevant solution of production and marketing strategies to the fishery industry, helping them to enhance the production and make perfect level of distribution.

We used data from national surveys in three countries (Bangladesh, India and Nepal) to estimate trends in prevalence of current SLT use. All available nationally representative data sources were used. Estimates were weighted, age standardized and given along with 95% confidence intervals. Significance of linear trend in prevalence over time was tested using the Cochrane-Armitage test for trend. A p value of less than 0.05 was considered statistically significant.

It still remains a major problem in countries like India, Bangladesh and Nepal. The objective of this study was to estimate the trends of SLT use in three countries of the SEARO WHO office. We used data from national surveys in three countries (Bangladesh, India and Nepal) to estimate trends in prevalence of current SLT use. All available nationally representative data sources were used. Estimates were weighted, age standardized and given along with 95% confidence intervals. Significance of linear trend in prevalence over time was tested using the Cochrane-Armitage test for trend. A p value of less than 0.05 was considered statistically significant. We identified three surveys for Bangladesh, three for India and four for Nepal that met the selection criteria (such as Demographic and Health Surveys, WHO-STEPwise approach to Surveillance and Global Adult Tobacco Surveys). ...","downloadable_attachments":[{"id":68558314,"asset_id":50661829,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false}],"ordered_authors":[{"id":66757368,"first_name":"Khem","last_name":"Karki","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"KhemKarki3","display_name":"Khem Karki","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/KhemKarki3?f_ri=16946","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/66757368/20333364/20024921/s65_khem.karki.jpg"}],"research_interests":[{"id":9109,"name":"Tobacco","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Tobacco?f_ri=16946","nofollow":false},{"id":16946,"name":"Nepal","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Nepal?f_ri=16946","nofollow":false},{"id":18895,"name":"Bangladesh","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Bangladesh?f_ri=16946","nofollow":false},{"id":22506,"name":"Adolescent","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Adolescent?f_ri=16946","nofollow":false},{"id":43838,"name":"India","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/India?f_ri=16946"},{"id":64568,"name":"Humans","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Humans?f_ri=16946"},{"id":79411,"name":"TRENDS","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/TRENDS?f_ri=16946"},{"id":88969,"name":"Tobacco Use","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Tobacco_Use?f_ri=16946"},{"id":98925,"name":"Female","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Female?f_ri=16946"},{"id":102894,"name":"Smokeless tobacco","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Smokeless_tobacco?f_ri=16946"},{"id":111545,"name":"Male","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Male?f_ri=16946"},{"id":133057,"name":"Young Adult","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Young_Adult?f_ri=16946"},{"id":212758,"name":"Trend Analysis","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Trend_Analysis?f_ri=16946"},{"id":289330,"name":"Prevalence","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Prevalence?f_ri=16946"},{"id":295155,"name":"Middle Aged","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Middle_Aged?f_ri=16946"},{"id":382075,"name":"Adult","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Adult?f_ri=16946"},{"id":410370,"name":"Public health systems and services research","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Public_health_systems_and_services_research-1?f_ri=16946"},{"id":413192,"name":"Sex Factors","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Sex_Factors?f_ri=16946"},{"id":557260,"name":"Health surveys","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Health_surveys?f_ri=16946"}]}, }) } })();</script></ul></li></ul></div></div><div class="u-borderBottom1 u-borderColorGrayLighter"><div class="clearfix u-pv7x u-mb0x js-work-card work_68023616" data-work_id="68023616" itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"><div class="header"><div class="title u-fontSerif u-fs22 u-lineHeight1_3"><a class="u-tcGrayDarkest js-work-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/68023616/Impact_evaluation_of_uterine_prolapse_surgery_in_Nepalese_women">Impact evaluation of uterine prolapse surgery in Nepalese women</a></div></div><div class="u-pb4x u-mt3x"><div class="summary u-fs14 u-fw300 u-lineHeight1_5 u-tcGrayDarkest"><div class="summarized">BACKGROUND The problem of uterine prolapse exists throughout Nepal and negatively affects women&#39;s health and quality of life (QOL).

Several strategies can be utilized to address implementation challenges and enhance scalability in LMICs, including mobilizing community resources, engaging in advocacy, and strengthening the overall health care delivery system.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/49670365" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="1256c3b0e1445d62317068ccc1f1157f" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":67957600,"asset_id":49670365,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/67957600/download_file?st=MTczMjQxMjQwMSw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="115615708" href="https://independent.academia.edu/MEkstrand">Maria Ekstrand</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="115615708" type="text/json">{"id":115615708,"first_name":"Maria","last_name":"Ekstrand","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"MEkstrand","display_name":"Maria Ekstrand","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/MEkstrand?f_ri=16946","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_49670365 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="49670365"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 49670365, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_49670365", });

Pattern of cavity distribution in temperate and boreal forests are relatively well studied, yet little is known about cavities in tropical and subtropical forests. We compared cavity availability in relation to tree condition (living tree and snag), tree species and DBH class between two different sites in a subtropical deciduous sal forest in Nepal: the Chitwan National Park Forest (the park site) and the Khorsor Buffer Zone Forest (the buffer site). Surveys for tree cavities were conducted in 2013 on 50 circular sample plots of size 0.1 ha. We recorded 40 cavity trees in the park site and 31 cavity trees in the buffer site. Density of cavities was on average 22.4 ha-1 in the park site and 19.2 ha-1 in the buffer site. Cavities occurred mostly in living trees (85.9% cavity trees) and were formed mostly by damage and decay (natural cavities: 74%) or by woodpecker activity (excavated cavities: 26%). Most were observed on three tree species: Shorea robusta, Dillenia pentagyna and Syzygium operculatum, with a mean diameter of 43 cm (range: 12-111 cm). S. operculatum, Myrsine semiserrata and Semecarpus anacardium were overrepresented among tree species with cavities. In snags, 25.0% of all cavities were found in the park site and 8.3% in the buffer site, while snags represented 4.2% and 2.2% of all trees in the two sites, respectively. Statistical anaysis indicated that tree species, tree condition and particularly diameter (DBH) were important variables for the prediction of cavity presence. We recommend cavity-bearing tree species to be better protected by forest management in order to help maintain the community of cavity dwellers.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/26412937" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="3505e3d3a399b7e47b43864b82031982" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":46710462,"asset_id":26412937,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/46710462/download_file?st=MTczMjQxMjQwMSw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="46574876" href="https://hokudai.academia.edu/RishiBaral">Rishi Baral</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="46574876" type="text/json">{"id":46574876,"first_name":"Rishi","last_name":"Baral","domain_name":"hokudai","page_name":"RishiBaral","display_name":"Rishi Baral","profile_url":"https://hokudai.academia.edu/RishiBaral?f_ri=16946","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/46574876/12315255/13711002/s65_rishi.baral.jpg"}</script></span></span><span class="u-displayInlineBlock InlineList-item-text"> and <span class="u-textDecorationUnderline u-clickable InlineList-item-text js-work-more-authors-26412937">+1</span><div class="hidden js-additional-users-26412937"><div><span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a href="https://ntncbcc.academia.edu/BabuRam">Babu R Lamichhane</a></span></div></div></span><script>(function(){ var popoverSettings = { el: $('.js-work-more-authors-26412937'), placement: 'bottom', hide_delay: 200, html: true, content: function(){ return $('.js-additional-users-26412937').html();

We recommend cavity-bearing tree species to be better protected by forest management in order to help maintain the community of cavity dwellers.","downloadable_attachments":[{"id":46710462,"asset_id":26412937,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false}],"ordered_authors":[{"id":46574876,"first_name":"Rishi","last_name":"Baral","domain_name":"hokudai","page_name":"RishiBaral","display_name":"Rishi Baral","profile_url":"https://hokudai.academia.edu/RishiBaral?f_ri=16946","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/46574876/12315255/13711002/s65_rishi.baral.jpg"},{"id":312914,"first_name":"Babu","last_name":"Lamichhane","domain_name":"ntncbcc","page_name":"BabuRam","display_name":"Babu R Lamichhane","profile_url":"https://ntncbcc.academia.edu/BabuRam?f_ri=16946","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/312914/77286/43961432/s65_babu.lamichhane.jpg"}],"research_interests":[{"id":16946,"name":"Nepal","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Nepal?f_ri=16946","nofollow":false},{"id":711828,"name":"Sal forest","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Sal_forest?f_ri=16946","nofollow":false},{"id":989842,"name":"Chitwan National Park","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Chitwan_National_Park?f_ri=16946","nofollow":false},{"id":1743492,"name":"Tree-Cavity","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Tree-Cavity?f_ri=16946","nofollow":false}]}, }) } })();</script></ul></li></ul></div></div><div class="u-borderBottom1 u-borderColorGrayLighter"><div class="clearfix u-pv7x u-mb0x js-work-card work_44947045" data-work_id="44947045" itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"><div class="header"><div class="title u-fontSerif u-fs22 u-lineHeight1_3"><a class="u-tcGrayDarkest js-work-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/44947045/Efficacy_of_a_Small_State_Nepal_s_Role_in_SAARC">Efficacy of a Small State: Nepal’s Role in SAARC</a></div></div><div class="u-pb4x u-mt3x"><div class="summary u-fs14 u-fw300 u-lineHeight1_5 u-tcGrayDarkest"><div class="summarized">The chapter address the research question: do small states exert influential power in a regional organization?

Method A cross-sectional in design was applied, among a sample of 160 HIV-infected persons receiving treatment, care, and support from eight community-based NGOs. QOL was assessed using the WHO (QOL)-26 tool, and social support was assessed by use of a modified Sarason’s Social Support Questionnaire. A Hope Assessment Scale was also developed. Results The non-family support network was greater than family support network. Overall satisfaction from social support and hope was significantly correlated with QOL; the greatest effect of social support was on environmental functioning, and the lowest was on social relationships, emotional support was less a predictor of social relationship than other types of supports. Conclusion The effect of perceived satisfaction from social support was through the mediation variable hope. As it has widely been recognized that community-based support is vital for issues of quality of life, strategies to improve social support and hope intervention programs are strongly encouraged. The results of the study have implications for providing care, treatment, and psycho-social support to maintain or enhance quality of life of PLWHA.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/7781687" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="e465bb6f0fa675df000a3b6edf39e3ec" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":48343490,"asset_id":7781687,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/48343490/download_file?st=MTczMjQxMjQwMSw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="14332161" href="https://independent.academia.edu/sushilyadav11">sushil yadav</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="14332161" type="text/json">{"id":14332161,"first_name":"sushil","last_name":"yadav","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"sushilyadav11","display_name":"sushil yadav","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/sushilyadav11?f_ri=16946","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_7781687 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="7781687"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 7781687, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_7781687", });
