Chain Governance in Urban Dairying in Tanzania: A Cross- Learning Study on Value Chain Development

Tanga city is the most unlikely location to have the most evolved urban milk value chain in Tanzania, being the most North-easterly coastal metropolis in the country, especially when contrasted with an urban milk value chain in cooler environments like Iringa Municipality in the Southern highlands. This is a paradox that has attracted many interests to unravel including this study. Presence of persevering and unrelenting champions has been the cornerstone for achieving this high level of organization on the value chain. The spontaneous upgrading has seen development of a cooperative model that integrates milk production, processing and marketing into a one whole competitive and efficient value chain. These are the qualities that elude the milk value chain in Iringa Municipality. The market concentration figures on Tanga may not be interpreted at face value given the cooperative procurement model which is coordinated under a quasi-vertical integration governance arrangement. Sustainability prospects of both value chains are however challenged by town/city and urban agriculture development policies/regulations that are moving in different directions. Multi-stakeholder initiatives are necessary to address outstanding challenges threatening the industry in Tanga for the sake of city revenue, livelihoods of communities and country development at large.
Effect of progressive rehabilitation training combined with acupuncture on rehabilitation and daily living ability of stroke patients

This study intended to analyze the role of progressive rehabilitation with acupuncture on the rehabilitation and daily living of patients recovering from stroke. Altogether 126 stroke patients were grouped into the research group (RG) (69 patients received progressive rehabilitation with acupuncture) and the control group (CG) (57 patients received progressive rehabilitation). The therapeutic effects were compared, including edema, dysphagia, changes in self-efficacy and recovery of upper limb function, psychological status and neurological recovery, prognosis, QOL and incidence of adverse reactions. The rehabilitation effect of the RG was higher. Edema and dysphagia of the RG were reduced (P<0.05), and self-efficacy and upper limb function recovery were increased (P<0.05). After treatment, the psychological status of the RG was better (P<0.05), and the recovery of neurological function was better (P<0.05). The QOL in the RG was higher (P<0.05), and the incidence of adverse reactions in the RG was lower (P<0.05). Progressive rehabilitation with acupuncture can improve rehabilitation effects, recovery of neurological function, and daily living ability; all of which are important factors, thus making combination treatment worthy of promoting in the clinic.

A Review on Endothelial Dysfunction in Diabetic Cardiomyopathy HE Yuan,HUANG Rong,HE Hai-yan,WU Sha,XIAO Chuang,CHEN Chen,LIU Wei-jun, BAI Chun-yun,LI Xian,YANG Wei-min (1) School of Pharmaceutical Science 2) Zhaotong Municipal Institute Of Gastrodia Elata,

[Abstract] Diabetic cardiomyopathy has been recognized as one of the main causes of death in diabetic patients. Its pathogenesis is not related to hypertensive heart disease and other types of heart disease. Its exact mechanisms include vascular endothelial dysfunction, microangiopathy, oxidative stress, and insulin resistance. Cardiac endothelial cells play an important role in normal myocardial function, including capillary angiogenesis, changes in vascular permeability, and cardiac tissue remodeling. Therefore, it is necessary to emphasize the role endothelial dysfunction playing in the pathogenesis of diabetic cardiomyopathy, and establish a therapeutic intervention system targeting endothelial cells by identifying the key factors involved in diabetic cardiomyopathy.

JUNCTION SIGNAL PLAN ASSESSMENT IN RELATION TO DIFFERENT PROGRAMMING STRATEGIES

Road traffic research has shown that a thorough analysis is required to identify different vehicle movement parameters within a given network. These parameters depend on a number of aspects such as: direction of travel, alternation of transport demand during a day, location of the artery in the territory, type of road and also the area analyzed. The paper aims to analyze different strategies in junction signal plan creation based on the traffic parameters. The main aspect of the different strategies analyzed in this paper is given by the comparison between two and three phases of junction signal plans
EFFECT OF ADDITION FROM EGG YOLK OF DIFFERENT AVIAN TO TRIS EXTENDER ON FREEZING SEMEN TRAITS OF AWASSI RAMS

The objective of this study was to investiget the effect of different kinds of egg yolk (hen, quail, turkey, and duck) on the awassi ram semen quality after cryopreservation. The semen was collected by using artificial vagina from four awassi rams and then evaluated , after pooling the semen samples and dilution with tris which contain egg yolk made from poultry birds (10%) and glycerol (5%). The samples were kept in 4C for two hours and then exposed to liquid nitrogen vapor for (10min) and suck in liquid nitrogen, one month later, the samples were thawed at 37C for(5min). the sperm motility, membrane integrity, the percentage of dead and abnormal sperm and DNA fragmentation determination were evaluated. The results showed that yolk of quail egg recorded the higher percent of sperm motility and membrane integrity in comparison with other birds (40.85, 43.85%) respectively. No significant (P>0.05) differences were recorded between quail yolk egg and duck yolk egg for dead and abnormal sperm. The yolk of quail eggs Foard the lowest percentage of DNA fragmentation (8.8%) while no significant difference was recorded between yolk of hen egg, turkey and duck. It can be conclude that the ability of using yolk of quail eggs as substitute of yolk of hen in the semen ram dilutions.
Temperature-Induced Energy Transfer in Dye-Conjugated Upconverting Nanoparticles: A New Candidate for Nanothermometry

Lanthanide-doped upconverting nanoparticles (UCNPs) are highly promising candidates for bioimaging and for cellular nanothermometry as a novel diagnostic tool. Aiming for the diagnosis of diseases at very early stages in order to optimize therapy and recovery of the patient, it must be taken into account that thermal singularities are often one of the first indicators of a disease. It is therefore our goal to develop a nanothermometer based on UCNPs that is suitable to detect the temperature at a subcellular level in the physiological range. Thus, upconverting NaGdF4:Er3+,Yb3+ nanoparticles that convert near-infrared (NIR) into visible (VIS) light are synthesized by thermal decomposition. Appropriate surface modification with a thermoresponsive polymer pNIPAM (poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)) guarantees dispersibility in aqueous media required for biomedical applications. In a further step, the combination of the obtained UCNPs with an organic dye (FluoProbe532A) provides potential donor-acceptor-pairs allowi.
Management and Utilization of Wild Nutraceutical Plants: Implications in Diversifying Food sources and Traditional Health care systems in Lare Woreda, Gambella Regional State, Southwest Ethiopia

The diverse wild Nutraceutical plants in Lare woreda of Gambella Regional State are known to have a huge potential in their overall socio-economic contribution to the community, especially in diversifying food sources and traditional health care systems. However, information on the management, processing and utilization of these plants are inadequate as they are not well studied. Therefore, this study was conducted with the objective of assessing the management and utilization aspects of the existing nutraceutical plants in the area. To that end, 120 households from three representative administrative Kebeles were selected and interviewed using semi-structured questionnaire. Other methods of data collection, which include focus group discussions, key informants interview, and preference ranking, were also employed in addition to the formal household survey. A total of 37 wild useful plant species belonging to 27 families and contributing to diversifying local food sources and health care systems (for treating both human and livestock diseases) were identified. These plant species belong to different habits, which include trees, shrubs, climbers, and herbs; and the communities can access them in different types of habitats (mainly, from dense woodland areas, open woodlands, road side plants and bush lands). Different threats encountered in the overall management of woodland vegetations consisting of these plants, which have resulted in the decline in their distribution, were also identified. These threats include frequent fire, agricultural land expansion and investment, fuel wood collection, timber collection and settlements. With regard to their processing and utilization, some of these plant parts are consumed raw, whereas some others are taken in the forms of juice as well as porridge. The different parts of the plants (fruits, leaves, seeds, roots/tubers, barks and stems) are used as sources of food and traditional medicines. As recommendations the study suggested that necessary management interventions, which can address the major threats identified, should be made in order to enhance the role of these plants. Environmental impact assessments associated with proposed conversions of major habitats of these plants into other land uses, such as agricultural investment and settlement purposes, should be conducted. Moreover, an all-inclusive and participatory management strategy that involves the local people in managements of these plants should be designed and implemented in order to address the major threats. Further studies on the chemical and nutritional aspects of these wild nutraceutical plants in the area are also required for designing more modern ways of their processing and utilization.
The effect of bathymetric modification on water age in the Elbe Estuary

The transport time of substances is a physical factor that influences the completeness of biogeochemical reactions in the estuary. Since hydrodynamic changes induce changes in transport time, river discharge and its seasonal variability strongly determine the transport time of riverine water and its fluctuations. A factor that leads to a permanent change in hydrodynamics is man-made bathymetric modification. However, the impact of such modification on transport time has never been quantified. Here we show for the Elbe Estuary (Germany), an example of a partially to well-mixed alluvial estuary, that the impact of typical, decadal man-made bathymetric modification on the transport time of riverine water is much smaller than the effect of the natural variability in river discharge. In this study, we used riverine water age to determine transport time. We found the age difference due to river discharge variation to be in the order of days to weeks, depending on the location within the estuary. In contrast to the strong influence of discharge, we found the age difference between scenarios which differ by the effect of 40 years of man-made bathymetric modification to be in the order of hours with a maximum of 38 hours, depending on location and discharge. Overall, riverine water age increases by approximately 7 % in the more strongly impacted bathymetry, suggesting that transport time is only slightly affected by the considerable depth differences of several meters in large parts of the estuary. With regard to the summer oxygen minimum zone, which regularly develops in the estuarine freshwater section, we therefore expect the physical influence of the realistic modification via a change in transport time to be small. Nevertheless, the increase in transport time of land-borne material potentially poses an additional stressor to the dissolved oxygen dynamics in the estuary.
The Cross Domain Social Media Collective Behavior of Social Networking Sites

: The valuable learning from aCross domain can be exchanged through the social domain to an objective domain. Notwithstanding, some of the time we may experience the ill effects of thing cold start problem in the objective domain. To ease this issue we apply cross domain algorithm alongside page positioning algorithm. The cross domain algorithm is separated into two phases; in the primary stage we apply the TrAdaBoost algorithm to choose a few things which are being prescribed to users in the objective domain. While, in the second stage we receive nonparametric pairwise bunching algorithm to settle on a choice whether to prescribe a thing to client or not. The algorithm finds the prescribed or not suggested client bunches for one thing through the two phases and afterward with the assistance of page positioning algorithm we give relevant and unsearched data to the users. Over the most recent couple of years recommender systems has developed overwhelmingly as an intriguing and new research field. Many research articles have been distributed in setting to the zones like User Modeling, Information Retrieval and Knowledge Management and so on that are identified with recommender systems. A large portion of the exploration ponders in this field manage prescribing things identified with a solitary domain (like books, motion pictures and so on.). With each new research there comes a couple of issues as well. This paper examines one such issue identified with the field of recommender systems i.e. cross domain suggestions (nuts and bolts, assignments, objectives and so forth.)
Running head: SELF-COMPASSION, AVOIDANCE AND SOCIAL ANXIETY The Effects of Self-Compassion on Avoidant Behaviours among Individuals with Social Anxiety by Nicolas Brais

Current cognitive-behavioural models posit that fear of evaluation (FOE) is a key factor in maintaining avoidance behaviours and social anxiety. Certain facets of self-compassion (SC) treating oneself with kindness and understanding in difficult times – suggest that it may be one potentially useful strategy to decrease FOE and subsequent avoidance and social anxiety. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the role of FOE on avoidance behaviours and social anxiety within a socially anxious population. A total of 110 undergraduates, who scored high on a social anxiety measure, completed all phases of the study. Phase one consisted of baseline measures of avoidance behaviours, social anxiety, SC, self-esteem, and FOE. Participants were randomly assigned to write about a socially anxiety-provoking situation, either selfcompassionately, expressively or neutrally, and to explain how their written response may help them in similar situations or assigned to a non-writing control condition. Participants completed the writing task three times in one week, completing final measures of FOE at the end of Time 3. In Phase two (two weeks after completing Time 3), participants completed a survey with measures of avoidance behaviours, SC and social anxiety. Hierarchical regression analyses did not find any significant effect of experimental conditions on SC, avoidance behaviours or social anxiety. All three writing conditions effectively decreased state and trait fear of negative evaluation, with neutral writing (i.e., describing a route to school) being the most effective and expressive writing being least effective. Fear of negative evaluation did not mediate the association between writing condition and avoidance, but partially mediated the association between self-compassion vs. expressive writing and social anxiety. Implications and future research directions are discussed.
𝛼-2-Macroglobulin in Saliva as A Glycemic Control Marker in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Patients

During past three decade, HbA1c has been utilized as a biomarker for assessing glycemic control and there is a need to give effortless, basic and acceptable new substitute screening strategies for DM so we intended to assess α-2Macroglobulin in Saliva as marker for glycemic control in sort 2 diabetic patients. This cross sectional examination included all out number of 90 subjects that were ordered into 3 gatherings bunch 1with sort 2 DM with HbA1c levels more than or equivalent to 7% gathering 2with sort 2 DM with HbA1c levels under 7% gathering 3healthy people as a benchmark group with fasting plasma glucose under 100 mg/dl, 2 h plasma glucose under 140 mg/dl, and HbA1c under 5.7%. all the included cases were exposed to estimation of salivation 2-Macroglobulin.there was high factually huge distinction between the three groupsaccording to level of salivary α2 macroglobulinThere was measurably critical moderate positive relationship between's α-2-Macroglobulin with every one of FBG, 2Hr PPBG and HBA1C. With the upsides of quick, available, financially savvy, and noninvasive technique, salivary A2MG is a promising organic marker for glycemic control in patients with type 2 DM.
Effect of Synertox® on broiler health and performance during aflatoxicosis

Eighty, one-day-old commercial male broiler chicks (Ross 308), were distributed to four dietary treatments with two replicates of 10 chicks each, to study the effect of Synertox on broiler performance during aflatoxicosis. Birds were reared for 42 days. All birds were fed on diet with or without aflatoxin (AF) in feed, and with or without Synertox (ST) (enzymes, organic acids and yeast extract) in water. The treatments were as follow: T1 (0 ppm AF and no ST); T2 (2.5 ppm AF and no ST); T3 (0 ppm AF and 0.5 ml/l ST); T4 (2.5 ppm AF and 0.5 ml/l ST). Body weights and feed intake were recorded weekly. At 42 of bird’s age, five birds were randomly selected for estimation of antibody titres against Newcastle disease (ND; for calculation of the relative weight of bursa of Fabricius, thymus and spleen as well as for scoring liver and kidney lesions. The results show that the total body weight gain through 42 days of rearing period that the gain was highest in T3. In the second order was the weight of the control group (T1), while in the third order was T4. The worst body weight gain was reported in T2, in which chicks fed AF. The same picture in body weight gain was obtained with feed consumption and feed conversion ratio. AF had a significant negative effect on the liver parenchyma of broiler chicks in treatment 2, by changing liver colour from mahogany to enlarged muddy or even to yellowish discolouration, with friable consistency with sub capsular haemorrhages. The addition of Synertox® was effective in restoring the normal red brown liver colour. Kidney were also affected by feeding AF (T2). They were enlarged, swollen and pale in colour. All lymphoid organs tested, thymus, bursa of Fabricius and spleen were negatively affected by feeding AF in broilers at 42 days of age. Synertox® was effective in counteracting the negative effect of AF on relative bursal weight, thymus and spleen relative weights. Aflatoxin had detrimental negative effect on the ND ELISA mean antibody titre. A significant restoring of ND antibody titre to those of control group (T1) was recorded by addition of Synertox® to the drinking water of broilers in (T4) compared with the AF fed T2 group. From the studied parameters it could be concluded that Synertox® could be used in counteracting the negative effects of AF on health and performance of broiler chicks.
