Impact of Instead Yellow Corn by Orange Juice Wastes on Growth, Digestion, Nutritive Values, Nitrogen Balance, Ruminal Fermentation and Blood Constituents of Growing Sheep

: In order to meet the high demand for animal feed, efficient use of available feed resources, enlargement of the feed resource base and a quest for novel feed resources, particularly those not competing with human food, is pivotal for sustainable development of the livestock sector. So, this study search for cheap source of energy to be alternative for grains. A total number twenty five growing Rahmani male lambs aged 5-6 months with an initial live body weight 23.72±0.111 kg approximately were randomly divided into five experimental groups. Experimental animals were housed in semi-open pens and fed as group feeding for 105 days. The five tested rations were formulated to replace 0, 12.5, 25, 37.5 and 50 % of portion of yellow corn in the first tested ration that contained 40% yellow corn and considered as control (R ), meanwhile, second, 1st 1 third, fourth and fifth tested rations were replaced 12.5, 25, 37.5 and 50 % of yellow corn in control ration (R ) 1 sun dried orange juice wastes (SDOJW) for R , R , R and R , respectively. The results showed that sun 2
Dynamics of Output Growth , Consumption and Physical Capital in Two-Sector Models of Endogenous Growth

Given the importance of economic integration and the concern for macroeconomic stabilisation, it is important to understand how increasing integration alters the e®ectiveness of government policy tools. This paper aims to determine how increasing goods and ̄nancial market integration changes the e®ectiveness of ̄scal and monetary policy. Expansionary monetary and ̄scal policies are analysed under di®erent degrees of goods and ̄nancial market integration in a dynamic general equilibrium framework. Simulations show that the e®ectiveness of ̄scal and monetary policy change signi ̄cantly depending on the presence of incompletely integrated goods and/or ̄nancial markets. While ̄nancial market integration increases the e®ectiveness of monetary policy, it diminishes the e®ectiveness of ̄scal policy. Goods ¤I would like to thank Alan Sutherland, Huw Dixon, Peter N.

The clitic string as a Pair Merge sequence

We argue that clitics are structured by Pair Merge, rather than by Set Merge. This contrasts with classical approaches treating the head status of clitics as derived from a fundamentally phrasal syntax. We show that different structures of merger for clitics and phrasal arguments (including full pronouns) can explain well-known empirical differences that otherwise need to be stipulated or derived via extra-syntactic—viz. morphological—mechanisms. This view of cliticization seems to run into immediate problems once we move away from object clitics in finite declarative sentences in Italian or French and tackle slightly less familiar linguistic systems that allow interpolation, enclisis (inversion), and allow clitic sequences to split (object vs. subject clitics). We argue that the above phenomena receive a principled explanation under the assumption that clitics are pair merged with different phase heads.
An Analysis of the Impact of Non-Oil Exports and Economic Growth in Nigeria from 1980 – 2016

he Nigerian economy has for decades precariously leaned on the fragile leg T of crude oil. An emerging trend suggests that in the last decade the economy was growing without job creation and poverty reduction before it starts slowing down in the last four years. Exports have been described as catalysts for overall development and increase the earnings of the country thereby creating an avenue for growth by raising the national income of the country. Since the importance of foreign income cannot be over-emphasized, this study therefore examines the performance of non-oil exports over the years as well as the reason for that pattern and level of performance. The study evaluates the impact of Nigeria's non-oil exports as to whether they have been eﬀective in diversifying the productive base of the Nigerian Economy from Crude oil as the major source of foreign exchange. Expectedly, attention of scholars had shifted towards non-oil exports as a remedial for this quagmire. This study investigates the speciﬁc impact of the non-oil exports to the growth of Nigerian economy using annual data between 1980-to-2016. The study adopted the Phillip Perron (PP), the Engel-Granger Model (EGM) for co-integration were employed in its analysis. Findings revealed a strong evidence of co-integration relationship of non-oil exports in inﬂuencing rate of change in the level of economic growth in Nigeria. The study, apart from empirically providing information that has failed to give backing to recent claims of non-oil exports led growth in Nigeria, has also make some recommendations which include government should re-emphasized and strengthen industrial revolution plan with a clear strategy to develop sectoral plan so that the planned should be working sector by sector for better outcome of these sectors. Also, government should invest in non-oil sector in other to diversify the economy from monoculture economy to a multicultural economy and creating economic environment which will help boost the activity of non-oil export sector.
(cid:2) -Glutamyl Leukotrienase, a Novel Endothelial Membrane Protein, Is Specifically Responsible for Leukotriene D 4 Formation in Vivo

The metabolism of cysteinyl leukotrienes in vivo and the pathophysiological effects of individual cysteinyl leukotrienes are primarily unknown. Recently we identified an additional member of the (cid:2) -glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT) family, (cid:2) -glutamyl leukotrien-ase (GGL), and developed mice deficient in this enzyme. Here we show that in vivo GGL, and not GGT as previously believed, is primarily responsible for conversion of leukotriene C 4 to leukotriene D 4 , the most potent of the cysteinyl leukotrienes and the immediate precursor of leukotriene E 4 . GGL is a glycoprotein consisting of two polypeptide chains encoded by one gene and is attached at the amino terminus of the heavy chain to endothelial cell membranes. In mice it localizes to capillaries and sinusoids in most organs and in lung to larger vessels as well. In contrast to wild-type and GGT-deficient mice, GGL-deficient mice do not form leukotriene D 4 in vivo either in blood when exogenous leukotriene C 4 is administered intra-venously or in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid of Aspergillus fumigatus extract-induced experimental asthma. Further, GGL-deficient mice show leukotriene C 4 accumulation and significantly more airway hyperreponsiveness than wild-type mice in the experimental
Carvedilol as Primary and Secondary Prophylaxis to Prevent Variceal Hemorrhage in Patients With Hepatic Cirrhosis: a Systematic Review and Meta-analysis

Variceal bleeding is a medical emergency with mortality rate of 57%. After the �rst bleeding episode, the chance of a second bleeding is 70% in the �rst year. Carvedilol has been shown to have the added bene�t of lowering hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG) but studies on its effectiveness as prophylaxis showed controversial results. The aim of this study was to assess the effectiveness and safety of carvedilol as primary and secondary prophylaxis of variceal bleeding in patients with liver cirrhosis. A comprehensive research was conducted using electronic databases, such as Google Scholar, PubMed, CENTRAL dan clinical trial.gov. We included studies from randomized controlled trials (RCTs). There were 17 studies included in the systematic review and 14 studies included in the analysis. As primary prophylaxis, carvedilol was as effective as EVL, (risk ratio [RR] 0.74, 95% con�dence interval [CI] 0.37–1.49); p = 0.4) and propranolol (RR 0.76, 95% CI 0.27–2.14); p = 0.6). As secondary prophylaxis, carvedilol was more effective than placebo (RR 0.60, 95% CI 0.37–0.96); p = 0.03) and propranolol (RR 0.50, 95% CI 0.26–0.94); p = 0.03) and as effective as EVL (RR 1.11, 95% CI 0.76–1.63); p = 0.60) and non-selective beta-blocker (NSBB) + isosorbide mononitrate (ISMN) (RR 1.02, 95% CI 0.74–1.42); p = 0.88). There was no difference in side effects between carvedilol versus propranolol and EVL was even better than the NSBB + ISMN group (RR 0.35, 95% CI 0.15–0.80); p = 0.01). Carvedilol is as effective and safe as primary prophylaxis for variceal bleeding than propranolol and EVL. As secondary prophylaxis, carvedilol was as effective as EVL and NSBB + ISMN and more effective than placebo and propranolol, with fewer side effects.
RESEARCH COMMUNICATION Second-Line Irinotecan after Cisplatin, Fluoropyrimidin and Docetaxel for Chemotherapy of Metastatic Gastric Cancer

Aim: Tumors of upper gastrointestinal tract are among the cancers that have a quite lethal course. Cytotoxic chemotherapy is the most efficient therapeutic modality for metastatic gastric cancer. In patients who do not respond to first-line treatment, the response rate to second-line therapies is generally low and the toxicity rates high. This study concerned the efficacy and the side effect profile of second-line therapy with irinotecan in the patients who were being followed-up with the diagnosis of metastatic gastric cancer in İzmir, Turkey. Materials and Methods: We retrospectively evaluated the efficacy and toxicity in 31 patients with metastatic gastric adenocarcinoma who presented to the polyclinic of Medical Oncology of Izmir Ataturk Education and Research Hospital between May 2008 and July 2011. All received chemotherapy regimens containing cisplatin, fluoropyrimidine (5-FU) and docetaxel as the first-line therapy for late stage disease. Irinotecan as a single agent was given at a dose of 210 mg/m 2 on each 21 days. Irinotecan (180 mg/m 2 on day 1), 5-FU (500 mg/m 2 on days 1-2) and leucovorin (LV; 60 mg/m 2 on days 1-2) as a combined regimen were given over a 14 day period. Results: Median age was 54 (range, 31-70). Irinotecan was given as a combined regimen for median 6 cycles (range, 3-12) and as a single agent for median 3 cycles (range, 1-10). Metastases were detected in one site in six patients (19%), in two different sites in 17 patients (55%) and in three or more sites in eight patients (26%). Four patients (12.9%) showed partial response and six patients (19.3%) showed stable disease. Progression-free survival (PFS) was found to be 3.26 months (95% CI, 2.3-4.2). Median overall survival (OS) was found to be 8.76 months (95% CI, 4.5-12.9). The most commonly seen grade 3/4 side effect was neutropenia but the the therapy was generally well-tolerated. Conclusions: In this study, it was demonstrated that second-line therapy with irinotecan given following the first-line therapy with cisplatin, fluoropyrimidine (5-FU) and docetaxel was efficient and safe. Further studies are needed for confirmation.
A COMPARISON OF ML/MW RELATIONSHIP FOR NATURAL EARTHQUAKES AND MINING EXPLOSIONS IN TEHRAN REGION

In this study, by using number of events contain explosions and natural earthquakes which were discriminated before, we tried to compare Mw/ML relationship between explosions and earthquakes. The data bank which used in this study contains 30 explosions and 69 earthquakes which happened in Tehran region (Long. 50 0 -55 0 and Lat. 35 0 -37 0 ) between 2006 and 2009 and recorded by Iranian Seismic Telemetry Network (ISTN). All of these events are local and the range of their magnitudes are 1<ML<4. By calculating local and moment magnitudes we found that Mw/ML relationship is MW = 0.765ML+1.099 for explosions and MW = 0.681ML+1.369 for earthquakes. This comparison was done again on a smaller magnitude range of 1.1<ML< 2.1 where the equation changed for earthquakes with MW = 0.508ML+1.715, and in case of explosions, since all events were smaller than 2.1 (ML scale), the equation did not change.
Consumption Impact of Some Rich Phytoestrogen Plant Foods on Menstrual Disturbance for Undergraduate Girl Students

: This study aimed to focus on the possible role of sesame seeds, germinated chickpea, wheat, fenugreek and water extract of fennel/anise as a rich source of phytoestrogen plants to improve menstrual disturbance for undergraduate girl students for three months. Body mass index, percent of nutrient to DRIs, food habits percent as indicator to nutritional status were examined. Menstrual problems questionnaire was collected to check period heath status. Estradiol (E2) and hemoglobin levels were tested as biochemical blood data. The collected data of body mass index percent showed high percent of ideal weight between groups followed by overweight and low percent in obesity and underweight girls. Daily intake of protein, carbohydrate and calories in most groups, increased vitamins compared to DRIs in all groups. But calcium and phosphorus percent decreased for all groups. Food habit data recorded moderate percent of all answers. Menstrual problems recorded irregular menstruation of plant groups. The best results of estradiol levels were found in fennel/anise decoction, bellila, chickpea, sesame seeds and fenugreek groups. Hemoglobin levels improved ranking of fenugreek, chickpea, sesame seeds and wheat bellila groups. So, study concluded that germinated plant and seeds rich in phytoestrogen may be used as regulate menstrual disturbance for girls.
The threshold of sediment movement under oscillatory water waves

ABSTRACT As the velocity of the to-and-fro water motion near the bottom under oscillatory waves is increased, there comes a stage when the water exerts a stress on the particles sufficient to cause them to move. This study reviews the analyses and available data on this threshold of sediment motion under wave action. For grain diameters less than about 0.05 cm (medium sands and finer) the threshold is reached while the flow in the boundary layer is still laminar and the threshold is best related by the equation um2/(s-) gD = 0.30 (do/D), where um and do are the near-bottom velocity and orbital diameter of the wave motion, is the density of water, and s and D are respectively the density and diameter of the sediment grains. This relationship is modified after an empirical equation deduced by Bagnold but has a theoretical basis. For grain diameters greater than 0.05 cm (coarse sands and coarser) the threshold occurs after the boundary layer has become turbulent and is best predicted with an empirical curve relating do/D to um/(s - ) g T where T is the wave period. This latter dimensionless number represents the ratio of the acceleration forces to the effective gravity force acting on the grains.
SeqEnhDL: sequence-based classi�cation of cell type-specic enhancers using deep learning models

Objective Computational identi�cation of cell type-specic regulatory elements on a genome-wide scale is very challenging. Results We propose SeqEnhDL, a deep learning framework for classifying cell type-specic enhancers based on sequence features. DNA sequences of “strong enhancer” chromatin states in nine cell types from the ENCODE project were retrieved to build and test enhancer classi�ers. For any DNA sequence, sequential k-mer (k=5, 7, 9 and 11) fold changes relative to randomly selected non-coding sequences were used as features for deep learning models. Three deep learning models were implemented, including multi-layer perceptron (MLP), Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and Recurrent Neural Network (RNN). All models in SeqEnhDL outperform state-of-the-art enhancer classi�ers including gkm-SVM and DanQ, with regard to distinguishing cell type-specic enhancers from randomly selected non-coding sequences. Moreover, SeqEnhDL is able to directly discriminate enhancers from different cell types, which has not been achieved by other enhancer classi�ers. Our analysis suggests that both enhancers and their tissue-specicity can be accurately identi�ed according to their sequence features. SeqEnhDL is publicly available at https://github.com/wyp1125/SeqEnhDL.
Factors Influencing the Implementation of Strategic Plan in Public Secondary Schools in Kisii South Sub-County, Kisii County, Kenya

The goal of education for all is now being looked into freshly by the organizations concerned to ensure that not just education but quality education is received. In Kenya, it is a ministerial requirement that public organizations including educational institutions develop strategic plans as a means of enhancing results-based management and efficiency in their operations. Even the schools with strategic plans rarely implement them and the result has been haphazard planning techniques, poor prioritization, and failure to use the meagre resources for the right projects. A descriptive design was used in this study. Descriptive and inferential were used to analyse the qualitative data obtained to enable critiques to conceptualize the results. The study established that in summary, there was a positive and significant relationship between communication and the implementation of the strategic plan in public secondary schools at r = . 445**, p < . 01 significant level contributing 19.8% variability to the implementation of strategic plan when other factors are held constant. The study established that there was a positive and significant relationship between leadership activities and the implementation of the strategic plan in public secondary schools at r = . 667**, p < . 01 significant level contributing 44.5% variability to the implementation of a strategic plan when other factors are held constant. Lastly; the study found that there was a positive and significant relationship between Resources and the implementation of the strategic plan in public secondary schools at r = . 767**, p < . 01 significant level contributing 58.8% variability to the implementation of strategic plan when other factors are held constant.
Machinery traffi c and cover crop eff ects on water infi ltration rate in a Xanthic Hapludox

- The e ﬀ ects of machinery tra ﬃ c and cover crops on soil physical properties have been underexplored under no-till agricultural production in subtropical environments. The objective of this study was to quantify the soil water in ﬁ ltration rate and related soil physical properties in response to tractor tra ﬃ c levels (0, 2, 5, and 20 passes) and the presence or absence of cover crops in a Xanthic Hapludox soil over two growing seasons under no-till conditions. The experiment was carried out in a randomized block design arranged in a factorial scheme with four replications. The tra ﬃ c factor was constituted by the number of passes with a 6 Mg weight tractor. The winter crop management practices factor consisted of the cover crops (i) black oat ( Avena strigosa ) in 2017 and turnip ( Raphanus sativus var. oleiferus ) in 2018 compared with (ii) fallow with spontaneous vegetation. The soil water in ﬁ ltration rate increased with cover crops when compared to fallow. Regarding tractor tra ﬃ c levels, shortly after soil compaction, there was a lower water in ﬁ ltration rate at 20 passes, 45 mm h -1 lower than the absence of tractor tra ﬃ c. The soil water in ﬁ ltration rate was positively correlated with macroporosity and negatively correlated with soil bulk density. After 14 months of soil compaction caused by tractor tra ﬃ c, an improvement in the soil physical properties and the water in ﬁ ltration rate was found, which were enhanced by the inclusion of cover crops.
TurboSream: Towards Low-Latency Data Stream Processing

— Data Stream Processing (DSP) applications are often modelled as a directed acyclic graph: operators with data streams among them. Inter-operator communications can have a signiﬁcant impact on the latency of DSP applications, accounting for 86% of the total latency. Despite their impact, there has been relatively little work on optimizing inter-operator communications, focusing on reducing inter-node trafﬁc but not considering inter-process communication (IPC) inside a node, which often generates high latency due to the multiple memory-copy operations. This paper describes the design and implementation of TurboStream, a new DSP system designed speciﬁcally to address the high latency caused by inter-operator communications. To achieve this goal, we introduce (1) an improved IPC framework with OSRBuffer, a DSP-oriented buffer, to reduce memory-copy operations and waiting time of each single message when transmitting messages between the operators inside one node, and (2) a coarse-grained scheduler that consolidates operator instances and assigns them to nodes to diminish the inter-node IPC trafﬁc. Using a prototype implementation, we show that our improved IPC framework reduces the end-to-end latency of intra-node IPC by 45.64% to 99.30%. Moreover, TurboStream reduces the latency of DSP by 83.23% compared to JStorm.
images to identify changes at the optic disc in ocular hypertensive patients at risk of developing glaucoma

Aim —To determine if global and segmental changes in optic disc parameters of sequential Heidelberg retina tomograph (HRT) images develop in individual ocular hypertensive (OHT) patients without white on white visual ﬁeld defects. Methods —Patients and normal controls were recruited from a prospective ocular hypertension treatment trial. The subject groups consisted of 21 OHT patients who had converted to early glaucoma on the basis of visual ﬁeld criteria (24-2 program on the Humphrey perimeter), 164 OHT subjects with normal visual ﬁelds, and 21 normal controls. Sequential HRT images 16–21 months apart were obtained for each subject and segmental optic disc parameters were measured to determine if any change had occurred. From the analysis of sequential HRT images of the 21 normal eyes we established normal limits of interimage variation. Individual discs in each group showing changes above the 95% limit of normal variability were then sought. Results —Several segmental and global optic disc parameters were found to show signiﬁcant change in the converter group before conﬁrmed visual ﬁeld change, con-ﬁrming our previously published results. Individual optic disc analysis using the 95% limit of normal variability data demonstrated glaucomatous change in 13 out of 21 converter eyes. 47 of the 164 OHT eyes with normal visual ﬁelds showed change in global and segmental parameters in a “glaucomatous” direction above the level expected for normal variability. The parameters which changed most frequently in the OHT eyes were: global cup volume (6.7% of discs), inferonasal cup volume (11%), inferotemporal cup volume (8.5%), and superotemporal cup area (7.3%). Conclusions —We have identiﬁed change in a subset of ocular hypertensive patients which could predate the
