Abstract: The information of diseases prevalence give useful information on disease pattern and thus can be used in preventing diseases as well as formulating policies for future management to prevent diseases. A retrospective epidemiological study of goats diseases were undertaken at Debre Birhan Agricultural Research Center, Ataye Boer Breeding, Evaluation and Distribution Site, from September 2015 to August 2019 to determine the pattern, temporal distribution and associated risk factor of clinical cases. The data’s were collected from registered case record book. A total of 2025 cases were documented during the time period, which were analyzed to assess the importance of existing diseases. The data were analyzed by SPSS version 20 and Chi-square test for significance test. Goats were significantly suffering from various diseases and disorders. The maximum 509 (25.1%) was affected by integumentary disease and lowest 3 (0.1%) was affected with urolthiasis. The others diseases highest to lowest rate were 429 (21.2%), 333(16.4%), 311 (15.4%), 192 (9.5%), 98 (4.8%),61 (3.0%), 57(2.8%), 28 (1.4%), and 4 (0.2) affected with respiratory disease, gastrointestinal disease, infectious disease, reproductive disease, deficiency and metabolic disease, musculoskeletal disease, nerve disease, cold stress, and congenital defect respectively. There was statistically highly significant relation between diseases and sex of goats. The highest disease prevalence 1327 (65.5%) was observed in female than male 698(34.5%). Breeds had significant effect, the highest disease prevalence 1238 (61.1%) was observed in cross goat than pure boer 429(21.2%) and local goat 358 (17.6%). Similarly, the age had significant effect and highest value were 1010 (49.9%), 390 (19.3%), 383 (18.9), and 242 (12.0%) observed in >730 days, 0-180days, 181-365days, and 366-330days ages of goats respectively. Also, the season had significant effect and the overall disease prevalence were highest in winter 731 (356.5%), spring 451 (22.3%), autumn 446 (22), and summer 389 (19.2). Based on the results of this retrospective epidemiologic study of goat diseases; respiratory distress 338, enteritis 289, local abscess 279, or 183 and cawdrosis 160 were the most clinical cases and health problems in the study site.

Abstract: Reviewing the history of cosmetics, the discovery of glycerin and its absorption of water in the 1720s promoted the development of synthetic cosmetics. After the second world war, the development of world economy brought the production of synthetic cosmetics, and the prosperity of synthetic cosmetics reached in the 1970s. However, due to the name of functionality, a variety of additives in cosmetics increasingly increased, entered a dangerous cosmetic period. Due to the appearance of synthetic cosmetics to environmental pollution and human toxicity, the world started the "return to nature" and entered the period of natural cosmetics. But, because there is no research evidence to explain, the theory basis that the skin has absorb nutrition to go realizing hairdressing goes as a result of skin itself physiology structure cannot absorb functional characteristic, accordingly, still cannot achieve the goal that protects skin. A survey of 366 women using cosmetics in three Chinese cities by Jacksun Easy Biotech Inc; 1) the damage of synthetic cosmetics to human face is manifested in facial chloasma, and the incidence of senile plaque and skin allergy is increased; 2) the younger the age, the higher the incidence of various spots. Based on this investigation and the above review of the history of cosmetics, it is concluded that currently cosmetics on the market only damage and harm to human skin. Dr. Zhu Huaijie, CEO of the company, proposed a new concept of cosmetic skin care, biological cosmetology, Namely without violating normal metabolism of skin cells, choose has confirmed that is harmless to the human body, and have certain effect to the cells of our bodies function of physical and/or chemical substances, by regulating the biological cells growth and metabolic changes, realize skin keratinization anomaly correction at the same time, to realize the process of skin beauty, called biological cosmetology.

Abstract: The resistance to antimicrobial agents among Staphylococci in both the community and hospital environment is an increasing problem that requires proper monitoring and containment. Erythromycin (a macrolide), clindamycin (a lincosamide) and streptogramin B are important antibiotics used clinically for treating bacterial-related infections; but the emergence of constitutive- and inducible-resistance mechanisms (especially target-site modification in target bacteria) in some S. aureus strains puts the efficacy of these antimicrobials at risk. When the mechanism of resistance is constitutive, the bacteria produce rRNA methylase (that compromises the antimicrobial properties of the antibiotic in vivo); but in inducible resistance, rRNA methylase is only produced in the presence of an inducing agent such as erythromycin. In this preliminary study, we phenotypically detected the occurrence of constitutive-clindamycin resistance (cMLSB) in 39 isolates of S. aureus of nosocomial origin. Antimicrobial susceptibility studies (antibiogram) were carried out using the Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion technique and cMLSB phenotypes was detected using ‘D’ test. Multiple antibiotic resistance indexes were calculated for cMLSBphenotypes. Our results of antibiogram shows that the S. aureus isolates were highly resistant to over 50 % of the tested antibiotics especially to cloxacillin (100 %), bacitracin (92.31 %), (53.85 %), mupirocin (82.05 %) and oxacillin (89.74 %). Reduced susceptibility of the S. aureus isolates was also observed in clindamycin (89.74 %), a weak inducer and erythromycin (53.85 %), a potent inducing agent. A total of 6 (15.4 %) S. aureus isolates out of the 39 S. aureus isolates investigated phenotypically by ‘D’ test were confirmed as constitutive-clindamycin resistant phenotypes. With a MARI value of about 0.7 on average, the cMLSB phenotypes were multiply resistant to the tested antibiotics. Due to the importance of clindamycin (a weak inducer) as an alternative antibiotic for treating staphylococcal-related infections, it is important to preserve the efficacy of this antibiotic through proper detection of cMLSB phenotypes from clinical samples since in vitro susceptibility to clindamycin might lead to treatment failure especially if the invading bacterium is of constitutive-clindamycin resistance phenotype (that is producing rRNA methylase in vivo).

Abstract: Healthcare organizations in the 21st century are fronting several challenges owing to globalization, rapidly moving customer marketplace, struggle, technology, economy, and diversity. Quality of care is a main health concern in the hospital setting. A work setting that supports professional nursing as well as the spirituality of nurses, discover in their labor may participate to quality of patient care. Aim: Explore the effect of workplace spirituality on work attitudes among nurses working in intensive care units at Shebin El-Kom teaching hospital. Subjects and methods: A descriptive correlational research design was utilized in the current study. Two questionnaires were applied, which are, Workplace Spirituality and Work Attitudes Questionnaires. All nurses (150) from intensive care units who were accessible at the period of data gathering and as well as agreed to be part of this study constituted the study sample. Results: Nearly about two thirds (64.66%) of participant nurses had high level of workplace spirituality, even though (15.33%) of them had low level of workplace spirituality. In addition, less than two thirds (60.6%) of participant nurses had high level of work attitudes, whereas, (15.3%) of them had low level of work attitudes. Conclusions: There was a highly statistically significant positive correlation (p=0.0001) between all dimensions ofworkplace spirituality and all dimensions of work attitudes except intention to quit. Recommendations: Planning and executing a comprehensive training program on the significance of maintaining workplace spirituality and delivering spiritual care specially in intensive care units and its effect on improving quality of care provided is essential.

Abstract: This paper suggests a 3D real-time monocular head pose tracker in which Active Appearance Models (AAM) are used to extract facial features. In order to improve texture model, two probabilistic approaches are proposed for principal component analysis in the presence of missing values and are evaluated. it is finally observed that applying Bayesian model results in improving model fitting. On the other hand, contrary to the common assumption in AAM, the gradient matrix must not suppose to be constant. In this investigation a method is suggested in which gradient matrix is adapted with new images during model fitting of video sequences as much as possible. In the next step, by means of suggested methods, operator’s head pose will be estimated by POSIT algorithm and by implementing this system on a People Bot robot, enhancement of the interaction between human and robot is presented in order to control the orientation of robot camera.

Abstract: Composite wastewater from 3 food industries (Pabod Breweries, Courdeau Catering Industry and Coca-cola bottling Company) were characterized microbiologically and physico-chemically before and after treatment using snail shell. The aim was to determine the microbial load and physico-chemical parameters of wastewater and also the effectiveness of snail shell in the treatment of the samples obtained. The samples were cultured on nutrient. Macconkey and Sabourad dextrose agar before and after treatment. Snail shells were collected from Choba market, Port Harcourt and washed properly. They were dried and grind to fine powder. Aseptic procedures were duly followed. For treatment, 5g, 15g, and 25g of ground snail shell were added to different test-tubes of wastewater samples of the same volume (20mls). The results of the parameters studied before and after treatment show a change in colour from cloudy to a colourless liquid. There was a reduction in the turbidity values which ranged from 423NTU to 158NTU, there was a reduction in the total solid and total suspended solid values from 16000mg/ml and 0.91mg/ml to 1320mg/ml and 0.61mg/ml respectively. There was an insignificant reduction in the total heterotrophic bacteria and fungi count from 13.7 x108cfu/ml to 7.7x108cfu/ml, 7.9x108cfu/ml and 7.1x108cfu/ml in response to the different masses of snail shell added. Some of the microorganisms identified includes, Escherichia coli, staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus cereus, Pseudomonas species, Fusarium, Aspergillus, Yeast. The research shows that snail shell can be used to rid wastewaters of solids but cannot be used alone in the removal of microorganisms since some microorganisms also use it as source of nutrient.

Abstract: This study intended to evaluate the effect induced by the number of cigarettes consumed per day in the resistance index (RI) and pulsatility index (PI) of the common carotid arteries, in Sudanese current smokers. A prospective study was performed with a group of 900 healthy adults who categorized after scanning to (26.7% smoked 1-4 Cigarettes/day, 16% smoked 5-9 Cigarettes/day, 53.3% smoked 10 and more Cigarettes/day and 4% were non smokers) and aged from 18 to 50 years (12 women, 888 men; mean age of all patients, 28±11 years). The common carotid arteries were examined using spectral Doppler ultrasonography to measure resistive index (RI), and pulsatility index (PI) values in the vessels. Increase cigarettes' consumption per day in current Sudanese smokers significantly increases the RI (P-value < 0.0001) and PI (P-value < 0.0001) for the right and left common carotid artery respectively. Findings report that increasing the number of cigarettes smoked per day in current smokers; significantly influence common carotid arteries RI and PI with a linear positive correlation manner.
