Management of Patients with Post- Traumatic Exposed Bones at Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital, Eldoret, Kenya

Background : The global frequency for open long bone fracture is at least 11.5 cases per 100,000 persons per year. Precise published research information regarding the characteristics and the management of patients with post- traumatic exposed bones for Africa, Kenya and Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital- Eldoret is non- existent. This study will provide the much needed research information. Objective : To assess the characteristics of patients with post- traumatic exposed bones with their management at Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital, Eldoret. Setting : Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital, Eldoret, Kenya. Design : Hospital based descriptive retrospective study. Subjects: One hundred and ninety six patients managed for post- traumatic exposed bones between 1st January, 2006 and 31st December, 2010. Methods : The medical records (files) were retrieved from the Records Department; data was gathered, recorded in observation checklist, organized, cleaned and analyzed in the statistical package for social science software version 19. Results : Males-167, females-29; ratio: 5.76:1. Mean age: 32.51 years (SD=13.26). Referrals were 51%, at least 60% were of low literacy and income earning status. All patients had exposed bones due to open fractures (97%) and degloving injuries (3%). Road traffic accidents were responsible in 49.5% of the patients. Duration of ailment was 0-300 days (median= 1.00). All patients benefited from surgical  interventions. Waiting time for surgery was 0-67 days (median= 1.00); while number of procedures were 1-9 (mean= 2, (SD=1.6)). Survival was 99.5%; length of hospitalization was 2- 177 days (median= 24.00; mean= 36.3 days (SD= 32.8)). The main complication was infection (62 patients). Follow up was adhered to by 59% of the patients. Conclusions and Recommendations : Majority of patients were: referred, males, of low literacy and low income earning status. All patients had exposed bones and benefited from one form or another of the numerous surgical interventions with satisfactory outcome. Scarcity of resources remained major  challenge. There is need to create awareness and empower people socio-economically; as well as providing resources required in prevention, control and treatment of this disorder.

Viscoelastic relaxation in bolted thermoplastic composite joints

Results from a research program to investigate the long term effects of
through-the-thickness fastener clamp-up force (preload) relaxation on the
strength of mechanically fastened joints for two graphite/thermoplastic
composite materials (Dupont's IM6/KIII and ICI-Fiberite's IM8/APC(HTA)) are
summarized and compared with analytical methods. An experimental program
was conducted in which 56 mechanically fastened single-shear joints were
tested. Phase I static tests established joint bearing strength as a function of
clamp-up force for two types of fasteners (protruding head and countersink) with
no relaxation of preload. Phase II testing monitored short-term fastener preload
relaxation (up to 1 ,000 hours), with special bolt force sensor washers. Inservice
parameters included were temperature, in-plane loads, and torque. The
jOints were tested to failure at the end of the relaxation time period to determine
any subsequent effect on joint strength.
Phase I test results indicated that joint bearing strength increased by as
much as twenty-eight percent over the clamp-up force range of a Ibs (fingertight)
to 3,500 Ibs for both materials. Fastener head type, material, and
temperature also affected the resultant bearing strength. For Phase II, fastener
clamp-up force at room temperature (78°F) relaxed an average of six percent
from the initial value during the short-term test period. The relaxation was
projected to be as high as fourteen and sixteen percent at 100,000 hours for
HTA and Kill, respectively. The elevated temperature condition (250°F)
significantly increased the relaxation rate with the projected 100,000 hour
relaxation amount being as high as thirty-seven percent for HTA and sixty
percent for Kill. Comparison of the Phase II bearing strengths to the Phase I
results indicated that portions of the data correlated well, while others did not. It
was concluded that relaxation of the clamp-up force over the short-term time
period did not significantly lower the bearing strength of either material,
however an extended exposure to 250°F could affect the bearing strength.
Quarterly Earnings Distribution and Earnings Management

Earnings management of the listed company is a hidden rule in the capital market. Previous researches usually based on annual earnings are difficult to find when and how firms manage their earning during a fiscal year. Given that the fourth quarter affords the last opportunity of earnings management, the abnormal change in earnings of the fourth quarter is open to doubt. Based on the evidence from Chinese listed firms, we use the distribution approach and logistic regressions, and find that the discontinuities at zero in the earnings distribution may be induced by earnings management. Our findings help to forecast in what conditions firms are likely to manage their earnings.

Impact of environmental tobacco smoke on incidence and outcomes of dementia.

Environmental Tobacco Smoke (ETS) remains prevalent globally. Its association with dementia is unclear. We propose to investigate impacts of ETS on dementia risk and outcomes, and examine levels and determinants of ETS exposure post dementia.  In a case-control study in the UK we will recruit 150 elders aged>=75 years with newly diagnosed dementia, 150 with already diagnosed dementia and 150 without dementia from the Royal Wolverhampton hospital. Each participant will be interviewed for socio-demography and risk factors and have saliva samples taken for cotinine analysis. Using multivariate logistic regression models we will examine the association of ETS measured by cotinine with newly diagnosed dementia, and identify factors influencing ETS exposure in people with already diagnosed dementia. We will analyse data from a cohort of 6071 participants aged >=60 years in China, who had the details of ETS exposure recorded in a 5-province health survey in 2007-2009 and were re-interviewed in 2010-2012 to diagnose incident dementia. We will examine incident dementia in relation to baseline ETS exposure, and the impact of ETS exposure on mortality and multimobidity in participants with dementia using multiple adjusted Cox regression models. In the UK we will further run 2 focus groups and explore preventive measures of ETS exposure in older people with and without dementia. Our rich data, including a biomarker elevated upon exposure to ETS will offer internationally applicable insights into the impacts of ETS on dementia incidence and outcomes. Throughout the research project, use of varied study and research methodologies and rigourous training courses, our Fellow will develop his leadership skills and further his career in public health research. The project will strengthen a long-term collaboration between China and EU partners, and will provide Europe with new data to prevent dementia and to reduce ETS.
Exploration on the Base Orientation of Artistic Design

Design can be integrated with technology,while can't be separated from estheticism,for its ultimate goal is to bring people a good total experience.What is the foothold of its innovation,and what is the difference between it and pure arts and crafts? All these questions can only be answered after a deep analysis and conscious practice on design base.We try to keep up with the times and attach importance to horizontal learning,while those activities only play the role of packaging the essence of design.This thesis emphasizes on the author's under standing of design-based research of the artistic design,and intends to inspire the confidence of peers in attaching importance to the infras tructure of this academic system construction.
VAST 2010 Challenge: Arms dealings and pandemics

The 5 <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">th</sup> VAST Challenge consisted of three mini-challenges that involved both intelligence analysis and bioinformatics. Teams could solve one, two or all three mini-challenges and assess the overall situation to enter the Grand Challenge. Mini-challenge one involved text reports about people and events giving information about arms dealers, situations in various countries and linkages between different countries. Mini-challenge two involved hospital admission and death records from various countries providing information about the spread of a world wide pandemic. Mini-challenge three involved genetic data to be used to identify the origin of the pandemic and the most dangerous viral mutations. The Grand Challenge was to determine how these various mini-challenges were connected. As always the goal was to analyze the data and provide novel interactive visualizations useful in the analytic process. We received 58 submissions in total and gave 15 awards.
Augmented reality visualization device

A visualization device allows a user to be immersed in visual content by projecting the visual content to the user. A projection element is positioned such that visual content projected from the projection element is reflected off of a mirror, which is angled such that the reflected projection is reflected onto a lens doublet. The lens doublet is angled such that the visual content projection reflected onto the lens doublet is partially reflected toward the user. In addition, an electrochromic slab can be controlled to allow configurable amounts of ambient light into the visualization device. If the electrochromic slab is configured such that no ambient light is allowed into the visualization device, the user is only able to see the visual content projected by the display device. The electrochromic slab can also be configured to allow some or all ambient light to travel into the visualization device.
Mapping the cosmic gas supply with alma

The molecular gas phase is the material in galaxies out of which stars form. As such, it is the quantity that controls the star formation rate of a galaxy, thereby the overall stellar mass build-up, and ultimately galaxy evolution through cosmic times. In contrast to studies of the stellar mass and star formation, characterizing this fuel supply in galaxies as a function of cosmic epoch is still in its infancy. The ALMA facility now redefines our ability to map out the cosmic cold gas supply, essentially unknown at present. This ERC proposal is based on extensive approved observational ALMA programs, led by the PI: ASPECS is the first-ever approved ALMA large (150h) program, aimed at providing a comprehensive view of the baryon cycle from gas to stars over cosmic time. ASPECS will provide 3D molecular scans in two ALMA bands of the Hubble Ultra Deep Field -- the iconic cosmological deep field. A second focus is the detailed characterization of the molecular gas content at z>6 in host galaxies of the most distant quasars via ALMA. This will assess the role of cold gas in the build-up of the first (t_Universe < 1 Gyr) massive cosmic structures in the Universe, again through significant approved ALMA programs led by the PI’s group. The studies outlined here will fully capitalize on the unparalleled capabilities of ALMA to map out the cosmic gas supply through cosmic history, and will provide crucial insights to define observational strategies for JWST (the PI is member of the European JWST/MIRI science team). Through his track record, past achievements in the field of galaxy evolution studies, and through the available proprietary data, the PI is uniquely positioned to lead this ambitious program, which will define the global state-of-the-art in cosmological galaxy evolution through high-redshift ISM studies.
“All the light we cannot see”: Psychoanalytic and poetic reflections on the nature of hope

Poetry captures that which lies beyond words. It expresses the rhythms and silences of music reaching areas of experience that exist outside the restrictions of simple prose. In terms of the treatment of poetry in the pages of the IJP and the IRP since their inception, we encounter a commanding story of the history of psychoanalysis itself. In the life of these two journals, we trace a massive shift from "victimisation of literature by psychoanalytic interpreters", as Wilfred Bion described it, to genuine enlightenment. That is, the pages of the journals confirm the rather bleak oversimplifications of many of the early articles, by contrast to the more contemporary psychoanalytic insights into the nature of creativity and the centrality of meaning in psychic and artistic life. The move is towards the aesthetic: towards the relationship between form and content and towards the poetic becoming a vital dimension of understanding the unconscious itself.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ENHANCED DIRECTORY ASSISTANCE INCLUDING COMMERCIAL FEATURES

A method for enhanced commercial activities to a mobile device user includes providing a user with an application for use on a mobile wireless device and receiving an incoming communication from the wireless device via the application at an enhanced services platform of a directory assistance center. Stored account information, associated with the user is retrieved and a coded information is received from the wireless device, where the coded information is generated by the application based on input uploaded onto the wireless device by the user obtained from any one of the group selected from a product advertisement, a product price tag and digital image of a product. The coded information is parsed at the enhanced services platform, options are retrieved related to a product corresponding to the coded information and the user is provided with options relating to the product.
REVERSIBLE SIGHTING PUTTER

A golf putter that enables dual configuration, namely sighting & play modes whereby the golfer can view both the ball and the hole by means of a mirrored surface, but which is reversible so that the golfer can play within tournament rules. A removable mirrored training aid has a reflective side and can be removed, flipped to a non-reflective side, or simply replaced with a same-weighted non-reflective plate, for use in actual (non-practice) golf play. The golfer can practice his or her stroke while observing the image of the ball and hole in the mirror, and thereby imprinting the correct stroke mechanics into muscle memory. Then, after the golfer has reversed the re-attachable mirrored surface plate to present its non-reflective side, the golfer can use the putter in a round of golf.
Math Solution an innovative platform to assist students and tutors in the process of individual or joint teaching based on advanced imaging and machine learning algorithms in mathematics and other science subjects

Number_reference_aid_programme: SA.41471(2015/X) Purpose of public aid: art: 25 EC Regulation No 651/2014 of 17 June 2014 declaring certain categories of aid compatible with the internal market in the application of Articles 107 and 108 of the Treaty (OJ L 119, p. That’s it. EU L 187/1 of 26.06.2014).The aim of the project is to develop innovative software to assist students in learning how to solve tasks in mathematics based on advanced image processing algorithms and machine learning to facilitate quick understanding of the methods of solving the tasks sought. The software will recognise the full content of the tasks from the photos sent by the students and search for identical or similar tasks in a verified database collected by the Applicant as a result of sending the student an immediate step-by-step solution (or giving the student immediate support in the learning process). On the one hand, this will reduce the time of handing over to the student how to solve the task, and on the other, it will allow to rationalise the use of tutors’ work in a way that limits the independent resolution of the same tasks by many people. To this end, it is necessary to develop a mechanism for analysing the content of tasks, which may contain both text and mathematical formulas or illustrations, and to propose a way of data representation that allows for an effective search. The implementation of the project responds to the current and future demand for online educational services. The result of the project will be an innovative platform that will allow users to catalog and search for knowledge, as well as easy communication and identification of optimal solutions in the field of science. Competitive Advantages of Math Solution: &bull; quick answer to any mathematical problem thanks to the recognition and search module — automated task response process, &bull; unique solutions to help students and teachers &ndash; quick understanding, effective nau

IMPROVEMENTS IN OR RELATING TO A SECONDARY DRIVE UNIT

A secondary drive unit (10) for demountable attachment to a machine having a primary drive unit and power take-off, the secondary drive unit (10) comprises a housing (12), a directly or indirectly attachable to said machine, a drivable input element (16) drivable by the machine at or adjacent to one end of the housing (12), a driven output element (18) at or adjacent to the other end of the housing (12) for driving a tool and/or another machine, and at least one rotatable gear carrier (44) in the housing (12) drivable by the drivable input element (16). An interior surface of the housing (12) includes a radially- inwardly projecting gear-carrier stop (58) overlapping an upper edge of the gear carrier (44). A low-friction rubbing element (62) formed of a low-friction material relative to that of the housing (12) is interposed between the gear-carrier stop (58) and the gear carrier (44) to prevent or limit gear-carrier lift. This thus prevents or limits undue lateral strain along a central rotational axis of the drive unit (10), and thus a possibility of internal shearing.
New insights into the genetic mechanisms underlying behavioural variation in wild marine fish

Humans depend on great measure on the welfare of marine ecosystems, not only from the retribution obtained directly from resource harvesting but also from the benefits derived from healthy ecosystems (i.e. quality of natural resources, biodiversity maintenance, and ecosystem resilience to anthropogenic challenges). Traditionally, management efforts to preserve marine resources only contemplated morphological traits of the individuals (e.g. body size). However, more evidence is piling up on the importance of behaviour on biodiversity conservation. Traits such as exploration, boldness, and activity have a strong impact on the individual`s reproductive success, thus determining species survival. As other phenotypical traits, fish behaviour is determined in great measure by its genetic basis. In this project, we propose studying the genetic mechanisms underlying fish behavioural types. We will use a unique dataset based on state-of-the-art fish-tracking data that provides long-term behavioural data in situ for hundreds of free-living fish at unprecedented spatio-temporal resolution. We will complement the behavioural data set with advanced genetic and genomic techniques to find phenotype-genotype associations by: i) studying the sequence variants of candidate genes, ii) studying the location and abundance of target proteins in fish brain structures, iii) obtaining multiple brain transcriptomes from individuals showing distinct behavioural types. The multidisciplinary nature of the project, combining novel behavioural data collection with next generation genomic techniques, will provide a broad overview of the molecular basis of behavioural characterization. The proposed activities will open a new line of research in behavioural molecular ecology unprecedented in marine ecosystems. Our results will provide insight into the molecular basis of behaviour in marine fish, thus leading to a qualitative jump forward in fisheries management and behavioural biology.
