Birdwatching as a Potential Tourism Market on Kiritimati Island

Kiritimati is an isolated low lying atoll located in the Pacific Ocean and is part of the Republic of Kiribati. Kiritimati faces many challenges to its economy. An absence of economies of scale, long distance from major markets, scarce fresh water supplies and limited land area contribute to its economic vulnerability. Unlike other Pacific islands, Kiritimati receives very few international visitors, and these are generally restricted to bone fisherman, consultants and government officials. This article reviews the current tourism activities occurring on Kiritimati and evaluates whether the island’s enormous colonies of breeding seabirds could be an opportunity for environmentally based ecotourism. The island is home to numerous rare seabird species, which have a high economic value due to their ability to attract the committed birdwatchers, who tend to have long stays, highexpenditures levels, and a high return rate. The potential for developing birdwatching tourism in Kiritimati relies on developing sustainable niche products on an appropriate scale that does not exceed current carrying capacities. Further research [is needed into any] heavy promotion in international tourist markets and protection of birds from exploitation due to local poaching.
Types of Anaemia and its Correlation with Disease Activity in Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis among Kurdish Population of Iraq

Background: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic systemic inflammatory autoimmune disease characterized by articular and extra-articular manifestation as weight loss, fatigue, malaise, and anemia. Objectives: The aim of this study was to find the prevalence of different types of anemia and its correlation with the disease activity among patients with RA in Sulaymaniyah province and to determine the associated risk factors. Patients and Methods: A cross sectional study carried out in Sulaymaniyah general medical Hospital for periods from October-2014 to the end of June-2015.A convenient sample of 100 rheumatoid arthritis patients were selected from patients seen in the rheumatology clinic. One hundred healthy voluntary controls of same age groups were selected and same parameters for diagnosis of anemia are used in both groups. Results: The prevalence of all types of anemias among the rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) patients was 40% which more than that found in control group. The common types of anemia was anemia of chronic disease (28%), iron deficiency (10%), thalassemia minor (1%), and megaloblastic anemia 1%. We found a significant correlation of RA with each low hemoglobin, low hematocrit, high leucocyte count and high ESR. Anemia among RA patients in our study was significantly more prevalent among low socioeconomic status patients. The majority of RA patients had moderately or high active disease, which revealed no association between disease activity and anemia (p value=0.3). Conclusion : the prevalence and types of anemias among RA patients in Sulaymaniyah was comparable to that found in other studies and it was two times common than the normal healthy peoples. In our study we concluded that little evidence found between disease activity and anemia.
High Step-Up DC–DC Converter for AC Photovoltaic Module Application

Photovoltaic (PV) power-generation market of ac PV module has shown obvious growth. However, a high voltage gain converter is essential for the module’s grid connection through a dc–ac inverter. This paper proposes a converter that employs a floating active switch to isolate energy from the PV panel when the ac-module is OFF; this particular design protects installers and users from electrical hazards. Without extreme duty ratios and the numerous turns-ratios of a coupled inductor, this converter achieves a high step-up voltage-conversion ratio; the leakage inductor energy of the coupled inductor is efficiently recycled to the load. These features explain the module’s high-efficiency performance. The detailed operating principles and steady-state analyses of continuous, discontinuous modes are described. A 15V input voltage, 200V output voltage, 100W output power proto type circuit of the proposed converter has been implemented; its maximum efficiency is up to 95.3% and full-load efficiency is 92.3%.
Differences in IT Security Behavior and Knowledge of Private Users in Germany

The German Federal Office for Information Security (Bundesamt für Sicherheit in der Informationstechnik) offers advice and recommendations for private users on how to behave securely. Based on these recommendations we investigate the IT security knowledge and behavior of private users with a representative study of the German population (N = 1.219). Additionally, we analyze the role of socio-demographic factors (gender, age, education, political orientation) for security knowledge and behavior. Results show that German private users have only moderate IT security knowledge and behavior, with aspects as gender, age, education and political orientation partly having an influence. Men, higher educated and politically moderately oriented participants show higher security knowledge, whereas young people and those less knowl-edgeable about security behave less security-conscious. Additionally, security knowledge and behavior correlate moderately. Therefore, to increase private users ’ IT security we suggest to increase education and training especially for users being young, politically right-wing or female.

Hetil. , 2016, 157(47), 1859–1865. | Abstract Plant-based diet is an old-new trend in nutrition. In this review based on a historical context, we wish to introduce this popular nutritional trend. Our aim is to present plant-based diet as a primary measure for prevention. We intend to critically analyse some past stereotypes related to plant-based diet – whose main components include fruits, vegetables, whole grains, legumes, nuts and seeds – according to the literature (e.g. protein, vitamin B12, folic acid, and iron intake) by doing so we wish to create an adequate conceptual basis for its interpretation. We discuss positive physiological effects of plant-based diet and its possible role in diseases risk reduction. Cardiovascular and metabolic diseases developing due to obesity could be prevented by a properly compiled plant-based diet. For patients with cancer minimizing the intake of foods of animal origin – as opposed to plant-based ones – has proved to have positive effects. Our review suggests this diet can be used in a number of diseases and it also provides long-term sustainable solutions for the health care challenges of the newest era. Orv.

Better Care, Better Health: Optimizing Healthcare Provision in Ghana

As enshrined in Article 16 of the African Union’s Charter for Human Rights, also known as the Banjul Charter, “every individual shall have the right to enjoy the best attainable state of physical and mental health. ” [1] Ensuring that every African enjoys a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being has proven to be an uphill battle for many national governments, as evinced by the alarming human development indicators that have characterized the continent since its decolonization era in the mid-20th century. In Ghana, a country in the western region of Africa, actualizing this right as a signatory of the Banjul Charter has been a significant feat since the late 1990s. Due to the introduction of the National Health Insurance Scheme in 2003, along with related policies in maternal and child health care, Ghana has seen a marked improvement in the provision of healthcare for all of its citizens as indicated by health outcomes that are comparatively better than other African countries. Nevertheless, systemic barriers and challenges still exist that impede the quality of, and access to, healthcare. An examination of these constraints and their social costs show the need to alleviate the burden and bottlenecks they cause. From this examination it is clear that a comprehensive approach entailing reforms and innovations geared towards bolstering accountability, monitoring and evaluation, and the retention of Ghana’s health workforce could optimize healthcare provision in Ghana.
A Novel Time Synchronization Scheme for Mobile Underwater Sensor Networks

This paper proposes a novel time synchronization scheme for mobile underwater sensor networks. Distinguishes itself from previous approaches for terrestrial WSN by considering spatial correlation among the mobility patterns of neighboring UWSNs nodes. This enables synchronization to accurately estimate the long dynamic propagation delays. Simulation results show that synchronization outperforms existing schemes in both accuracy and energy efficiency Time synchronization is an important requirement for many services provided by distributed networks. A lot of time synchronization protocols have been proposed for terrestrial Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). However, none of them can be directly applied to Underwater Sensor Networks (UWSNs). A synchronization algorithm for UWSNs must consider additional factors such as long propagation delays from the use of acoustic communication and sensor node mobility . These unique challenges make the accuracy of synchronization procedures for UWSNs even more critical. Time synchronization solutions specifically designed for UWSNs are needed to satisfy these new requirements.
Model-Agnostic Meta-Learning for Digital Pathology

The performance of conventional deep neural networks tends to degrade when a domain shift is introduced, such as collecting data from a new site. Model-Agnostic Meta-Learning, or MAML, has achieved state-of-the-art performance in few-shot learning by ﬁnding initial parameters that adapt easily for new tasks. This thesis studies MAML in a digital pathology setting. Experiments show that a conventional model generalises poorly to data collected from another site. By annotating a few samples during inference however, a model with initial parameters obtained through MAML training can adapt to achieve better generalisation performance. It is also demonstrated that a simple transfer learning approach using a kNN classiﬁer on features extracted from a conventional model yields good generalisation, but the variance caused by random sampling is higher. The results indicate that meta learning can lead to a lower annotation e ﬀ ort for machine learning in digital pathology while maintaining accuracy.
Social media sentiment analysis for business analytics

: Social media plays a vital role in generating valuable data as a data source for obtaining inferences and building strategies for business marketing. The vast amount of data produced every day in social media platforms are treasures for data analytics as they can be wisely used to understand the attitude of people regarding specific products. Sentiment analysis performed on these data provides valuable business insights. Organizations tends to use more social media for getting insight into consumer behavioral tendencies, market intelligence and present an opportunity to learn about customer review and perceptions. Applications like Twitter, Yelp and Amazon offers organizations a fast and effective way to analyze customers’ perspectives toward the critical to success in the market place. Building a system for sentiment analysis is an approach to be used to computationally measure customers’ perceptions. This paper reports on the design of a sentiment analysis app by extracting a vast amount of tweets, fetching user reviews from amazon and yelp. An e-commerce prototype is also used for customer behavior prediction. Fake reviews are detected using machine learning techniques. Results classify customers’ perspective via tweets into positive and negative, which is represented in a pie chart, histogram, data tables and html page. Reviews are analyzed and categorized into fake reviews and real reviews.
Graph Spectral Techniques on Unweighted Network

In this paper, graph spectral techniques are used to analyzing the water distribution network. The strength of the network connectivity, most influential node and optimal number of clusters for the network partitioning are computed by eigenvalues and eigenvectors through its adjacency and laplacian matrix. This approach is based only on the topological and geometric information of the network.
Factors Affecting Anterior Knee Pain in Post-Aclr Comparing Patellar Tendon and Hamstring Tendon Autografts

Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries are frequent athletic and non-athletic injuries that impact a person’s functional and athletic capability. ACL injuries generally require surgical reconstruction. The most popular graft types include patellar tendon (PT) and hamstring tendon (HT) autografts. PT autografts have been blamed for chronic anterior knee pain (AKP) and extensor mechanism deficits. This study compared the PT and HT autografts and their impact on AKP in subjects who underwent anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). Data were gathered from existing patient data from rehabilitation therapy records. Additional factors were also analyzed to determine the effect on postACLR pain. Post-treatment pain ratings measured by the Numerical Pain Rating Scale (NPRS) were recorded for the patient’s first six weeks of therapy visits. A lack of descriptive documentation did not allow for specific pain location. Neither PT nor HT autografts had a significant effect on post-ACLR pain ratings. Rehabilitation type, age, and time from surgery to initial rehabilitation visit were found to have significant effects on pain ratings. This study indicated that multiple variables can affect pain post-ACLR and future studies should focus on additional factors affecting ACLR patients.

Clinical Picture and Haemogram Profile Associated with Theileria annulata Infection in Cattle before and after Therapeutic Intervention

| Bovine theileriosis listed one of the tick-borne diseases of crucial concern worldwide. The objectives of this study were to investigate the occurrence of tropical theileriosis in a farm of cattle demonstrating acute manifestations by Giemsa stained blood smears and Tams1gene based polymerase chain reaction (Tams-1 PCR). Moreover, to follow up the treatment with buparvaquone and long-acting oxytetracycline on the clinical, parasitological and hematological profile of infected cattle. Blood samples were collected from cattle (n=25) suspecting Theileria annulata (T. annulata) infection and healthy ones (n = 10; clinically and parasitologically free) in Sharkia Governorate Egypt, during JulyAugust 2019. Fever (40-41°C), superficial lymph nodes enlargement, corneal opacity, and cases of non-specific abortion were the most manifestations recognized. The microscopic examination of blood smears (n=25) showed intracellular signet ring piroplasms which, confirmed using Tams1gene based PCR that identified Theileria parasites as T. annulata. Haemogram revealed normocytic normochromic anemia, meanwhile, the total leukocyte count (TLC) and lymphocytes significantly increased (P ≤0. 05) compared to the control ones using T-test. The cure rate in all treated cattle was (88%; 22 / 25) two weeks after the treatment. A rapid decrease in parasitemia in adults and young cattle to 0.5%, and 7%, respectively one week after treatment, and a significant increase in hematocrit percent and erythrocyte count, as well as macrocytic hypochromic anemia, was recorded two weeks from the beginning of the therapy. In conclusion, the response of Infection with T. annulata plays a vital role in occurrence of anemia and in changing blood parameters. Buparvaquone and oxytetracycline are indicated in the treatment of acute theileriosis together with iron supplements.
INCUBATED IN TERROR Perry

Approximately 250,000 years ago, a few thousand Homo sapiens (our first genetically-equivalent ancestors) migrated out of Africa, beginning the long transgenerational process of inhabiting and, ultimately, dominating of the rest of the natural world (Leakey, 1994). This fragile process was aided by a great deal of luck and the remarkable potential of the human brain to allow nongenetic, transgenerational transmission of information (sociocultural evolution). For thousands of generations, life was characterized by danger -omnipresent threat and pervasive intraand interspecies violence. Humankind and our current sociocultural practices evolved in -and, therefore, reflect -a brutal, violent and unpredictable world. The evolution of complex cultures and 'civilization' have not protected millions from the brutality which characterized the 'ascent' of humankind. While 'civilization' has decreased our vulnerability to non-human predators, it has done little to decrease intraspecies violence (Keegan, 1993). Indeed, modern history is characterized by increasingly efficient, systematic and institutionalized violence (e.g., the Inquisition, slavery, the Holocaust, the Trail of Tears). Men were, and men remain, the major predators of vulnerable humans (typically women and children). The profound impact of domestic violence, community violence, physical and sexual abuse and other forms of predatory or impulsive assault can not be overestimated. Violence impacts the victims, the witnesses -and, ultimately, us all. Understanding and modifying our violent nature will determine, in large part, the degree to which we will successfully 'adapt' to the challenges of the future -the degree to which future generations of human beings can actually experience humanity.
Analysis of sustainability in the slum upgrading process: the stormwater subsystem and the accessibility, mobility and transport

The process of rapid urbanization in developing countries has produced divided cities where the formal and informal live side by side. Informal settlements have become complex forms, where the social and environmental problems are major challenges for the government and the population for decades, in order to find ways to include them in the urban environment of the formal city, and to improve the quality of life of its inhabitants and minimize environmental impacts caused by the land occupation without infrastructure. In relation to urban systems, accessibility, mobility and transport system and the storm water drainage subsystem directly impact on the environment and quality of life of residents, especially in environmental preservation areas. However, as slums are very specific and complex systems, the slum upgrading project should be aware of the location characteristics, observing certain principles related to minimum conditions for the implantation of urban systems. Based on cases of slum upgrading in environmental protected areas, this paper aims to analyze the solutions encountered at implementing the urban infrastructure of drainage and road system in slums, examining the techniques employed and finding innovative solutions implemented by the interaction between the technicians with the local community. The results show the benefits that the urban upgrading process of informal settlements can provide to the environment and to the slum dwellers, if properly planned and performed.
