Consumer and Community Pharmacists’ Perceptions of Online Pharmacy Services in Uyo Metropolis, Nigeria
Authors: Ndem Ekpedeme , Udoh Arit , Awofisayo Olajide , Bafor Enitome
Published: October 2019

Background: Online pharmacies benefit consumer healthcare experience through affording convenience, efficiency, greater confidentiality, and improved access to medicines. There are several online pharmacies in Nigeria, however, studies about their use as well as consumer and pharmacists’ perceptions of the service are lacking.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate community pharmacists’ and consumer perceptions of online pharmacy services (OPS) in Uyo metropolis, Nigeria.

Method: This was a cross-sectional survey involving community pharmacists and consumers. The survey instrument was a structured, self-administered questionnaire. Survey data was analysed descriptively using frequencies and percentages while X2 was used to evaluate association between variables. 

Results: In total, 60 community pharmacists and 500 consumers replied to the survey. Although the majority (>85%) of the survey respondents reported frequent internet use, only about a third (28%) of the consumers and 57% of the pharmacists were aware of the availability of online pharmacy services in Nigeria. In general, majority of the consumers were positive about using online pharmacies with approximately two thirds (67%) indicating that they would consider purchasing medicines from the service in future. Also, 83% of the consumers indicated that access to online drug information and medicine advice via the service will be valuable. There was a significant (P<0.05) association between consumers’ online shopping behaviour and their likelihood to use the service. Also, majority (92%) of the community pharmacists in this survey agreed that online pharmacies promote pharmaceutical care and this perceived need was associated with their likelihood to provide the service in future (p=0.002). Consumer concerns about the service included the risk of substandard and counterfeit medicines, internet security, unavailability of prescribed brands, chances of ordering wrong medicines and uncertainty about timely delivery.

Conclusion: Overall awareness of the availability of online pharmacy services in Nigeria is limited in the survey population despite reported frequent internet use in this cohort. Generally, our findings suggest the potential for future uptake of online pharmacy services and highlight the need for a standardised approach to service provision as well as a regulatory framework to improve consumer confidence and alleviate the concerns raised.

Published: October 2019

Most pest termites in urban areas in Brazil are exotic species, but native species are becoming an increasing problem. This study aimed to identify termite species infesting trees and houses in urban areas of Campos dos Goytacazes, in the north of Rio de Janeiro State. Trees in the streets of sixteen neighborhoods were inspected for termites. Inspections and interviews were also conducted to verify the occurrence of termites in houses. Termites were recorded in 17 % of the 1,307 trees surveyed. Coptotermes gestroi was the most frequent species (51% of infested trees), Nasutitermes corniger and Microcerotermes strunckii were present in 38 % and 14 % of infested trees, respectively, and Microcerotermes arboreus was the least common (1 %). Different termite species coexisted in 14 % of the infested trees (n = 31). Termite infestations were recorded in 26% of the surveyed households (n = 1,020). Four species were identified as causing damage: Cryptotermes brevis, C. gestroi, N. corniger, and M. strunckii. The most common species was C. brevis, affecting 133 residences (51 %). C. gestroi and N. corniger were less frequent, but they were responsible for more structural damage than C. brevis, which mainly attacked furniture.

Mitigasi Serangan Wormhole Pada Teknologi Wireless Sensor Network Menggunakan Protokol Routing AODV Dengan Sistem Shutdown
Authors: Pamudji Tania Almira , Kurniawan Muhammad Teguh , Widjajarto Adityas
Published: October 2019

Wireless sensor network (WSN) merupakan sebuah jaringan nirkabel yang terdiri dari sejumlah sensor node berukuran kecil untuk memantau kondisi lingkungan tertentu. Setiap sensor node akan saling berkomunikasi dan mengirimkan informasi ke base station. Seperti halnya router, sensor node pada WSN juga memiliki kemampuan routing. Protokol routing pada WSN salah satunya dalah AODV yang memiliki karakteristik mencari jalur routing ketika adanya permintaan dari souce node untuk mengirim pesan ke destination node. Dikarenakan sensor node yang dipasang di lingkungan dapat diakses secara fisik maka meningkatkan potensi terjadinya serangan. Serangan wormhole merupakan jenis serangan dimana penyerang memindahkan jalur routing pada WSN ke terowongan yang dibuat diantara source dan destination node. Serangan wormhole dapat menjadi pemicu timbulnya serangan lain pada WSN. Berdasarkan kondisi yang rentan terhadap adanya serangan, maka dibutuhkan adanya mitigasi serangan pada wireless sensor network menggunakan protokol routing AODV dengan sistem shutdown. Hal ini bertujuan untuk mematikan sensor node yang telah mengalami modifikasi dari penyerang sebelum informasi tersebut diproses oleh sistem dan dikirim ke user. Dari hasil pengujian yang dilakukan diketahui bahwa pada penerapan sistem shutdown terjadi efisiensi energi yang dikonsumsi dengan tidak adanya penurunan dalam performansi jaringan. Sehingga sistem shutdown dapat menjadi salah satu solusi efektif dalam memitigasi serangan wormhole.
Writing Scientific Papers Training for Elementary School Teachers in Pademawu Pamekasan
Authors: Masduki Masduki
Published: October 2019

Scientific writing is one of the requirements in the promotion of elementary school teachers. However, the elementary school teachers who make scientific work are still very limited. The teachersare still experiencing difficulties for the promotion because of the requirements to write scientific papers. It is estimated that teachers have difficulty in writing scientific papers due to lack of knowledge and ability in making scientific papers. For this reason, there must be an activity to provide knowledge and skills for elementary school teachers, especially elementary school teachers in Pademawu Pamekasan  in the form of training or workshops for the writing of scientific papers. This activity has been carried out in conjunction with the KKN 2019 period and was followed by 30 (thirty) elementary school teachers in Pademawu Pamekasan. The methods used in this training are questions and answers, demonstrations, and practices. The target of this training activity is to obtain significant knowledge for elementary school teachers in Pademawu Pamekasan about how a teacher has the will and skills to make scientific papers so as to increase knowledge and at the same time increase his/her income. Another achievement is to obtain a picture of the teacher's ability to write scientific papers on how to identify, choose, and formulate research topics; arrange and organize the writing framework; collect reference materials as a basis for written theory; pouring ideas into written form; check the level of authenticity of scientific papers that have been made; as well as publishing scientific papers that have been made.

Authors: Junior Messias Gonçalves Pacheco , Pessoa Bruno Lima , Landeiro Jose Alberto , de Abreu Macedo Pedro Henrique , Leite Marco Antônio Araújo
Published: October 2019

Background:

Chronic subdural hematomas (CSDHs) usually occur late in adults and older after mild head trauma. Surgical intervention is the first treatment option in CSDH with conservative management being adopted in few cases.

Case Description:

We report a case of a 71-year-old man who presented a spontaneous resolution of a large CSDH. He presented with a difficulty of speech and an ataxic gait. Head (computed tomography scan) showed a low-density lesion located in the right frontal-temporal-parietal region.

Conclusion:

In this report, we discuss the spontaneous resolution of a large CSDH in elderly patients, without surgical intervention. Gradually, several successful nonsurgical therapies for the treatment of these hematomas are reported, although further studies are essential to establish the role of these nonsurgical treatments of CSDHs.

Imaging mass spectrometry (IMS) enables the spatially targeted molecular assessment of biological tissues at cellular resolutions. New developments and technologies are essential for uncovering the molecular drivers of native physiological function and disease. Instrumentation must maximize spatial resolution, throughput, sensitivity, and specificity, because tissue imaging experiments consist of thousands to millions of pixels. Here, we report the development and application of a matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) trapped ion mobility spectrometry imaging platform. This prototype MALDI timsTOF instrument is capable of 10 µm spatial resolutions and 20 pixels/s throughput molecular imaging. The MALDI source utilizes a Bruker SmartBeam 3-D laser system that can generate a square burn pattern of <10 x 10 µm at the sample surface. General image performance was assessed using murine kidney and brain tissues and demonstrate that high spatial resolution imaging data can be generated rapidly with mass measurement errors < 5 ppm and ~40,000 resolving power. Initial TIMS-based imaging experiments were performed on whole body mouse pup tissue demonstrating the separation of closely isobaric [PC(32:0)+Na]+and [PC(34:3)+H]+(3 mDa mass difference) in the gas-phase. We have shown that the MALDI timsTOF platform can maintain reasonable data acquisition rates (>2 pixels/s) while providing the specificity necessary to differentiate components in complex mixtures of lipid adducts. The combination of high spatial resolution and throughput imaging capabilities with high-performance TIMS separations provides a uniquely tunable platform to address many challenges associated with advanced molecular imaging applications.
Changing the Static and Dynamic Lattice Effects for the Improvement of the Ionic Transport Properties Within the Argyrodite Li6PS5-xSexI
Authors: Schlem Roman , Ghidiu Michael , Culver Sean , Hansen Anna-Lena , Zeier Wolfgang
Published: October 2019

The lithium argyrodites Li6PS5X (X = Cl, Br, I) have been gaining momentum as candidates for electrolytes in all-solid-state batteries. While these materials have been well-characterized structurally, the influences of the static and dynamic lattice properties are not fully understood. Recent improvements to the ionic conductivity of Li6PS5I (which as a parent compound is a poor ionic conductor) via elemental substitutions have shown that a multitude of influences affect the ionic transport in the lithium argyrodites, and that even poor conductors in this class have room left for improvement.Here we explore the influence of isoelectronic substitution of sulfur with selenium in Li6PS5-xSexI. Using a combination of X-ray diffraction, impedance spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, and pulse-echo speed of sound measurements,we explore the influence of the static and dynamic lattice on the ionic transport. The substitution of S2-with Se2- broadens the diffusion pathways and structural bottlenecks, as well as leading to a softer more polarizable lattice, all of which lower the activation barrier and lead to an increase in the ionic conductivity. This work sheds light on ways to systematically understand and improve the functional properties of this exciting material family.
Proximity Effect in Crystalline Framework Materials: Stacking-Induced Functionality in MOFs and COFs
Authors: Kuc Agnieszka , Springer Maximilian , Batra Kamal , Juarez-Mosqueda Rosalba , Wöll Christof , Heine Thomas
Published: October 2019

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and covalent organic frameworks (COFs) consist of molecular building blocks being stitched together by strong bonds. They are well known for their porosity, large surface area, and related properties. The electronic properties of most MOFs and COFs are the superposition of those of their constituting building blocks. If crystalline, however, solid-state phenomena can be observed, such as electrical conductivity, substantial dispersion of electronic bands, broadened absorption bands, formation of excimer states, mobile charge carriers, and indirect band gaps. These effects emerge often by the proximity effect caused by the van-der-Waals interactions between stacked aromatic building blocks. This Progress Report shows how functionality is imposed by this proximity effect, that is, by stacking aromatic molecules in such a way that extraordinary electronic and optoelectronic properties emerge in MOFs and COFs. After discussing the proximity effect in graphene-related materials, its importance for layered COFs and MOFs is shown. For MOFs with well-defined structure, the stacks of aromatic building blocks can be controlled via varying MOF topology, lattice constant, and by attaching steric control units. Finally, an overview of theoretical methods to predict and analyze these effects is given, before the layer-by-layer growth technique for well-ordered surface-mounted MOFs is summarized.
El Perspectivismo de Nietzsche en relación con el pluralismo onto-epistemológico
Authors: Gómez Salazar Mónica
Published: October 2019

En este trabajo discutimos si la tesis del perspectivismo de Nietzsche, desde una interpretación, podría leerse en claves del pluralismo onto-epistemológico. Para ello, comenzamos exponiendo el cuestionamiento que hace Nietzsche de la noción de verdad racional, así como de las posturas universalistas y trascenden-tales vinculadas a este concepto. En el segundo apartado exponemos algunas de las tesis principales del pragmatismo americano y mostramos que el perspecti-vismo no es cercano a esta corriente de pensamiento. Finalmente, presentamos la propuesta del pluralismo ontológico y epistemológico y referimos por qué el perspectivismo de Nietzsche podría articularse con esta postura y por qué no.

Стан та динаміка соматичних захворювань студентів закладів вищої освіти
Authors: Pantik Vasyl , Ishchuk Olena , Ivaniuk Olha
Published: October 2019

Актуальність дослідження. Зміна соціально-економічної ситуації й кризові явища в суспільстві стали причиною зниження фізичної активності молоді, унаслідок чого загострилася проблема збереження здоров’я особистості. Проведення дослідження зумовлено потребою адаптації фізичних навантажень до особливостей організму студентів та сутності наявних захворювань. Мета дослідження – проаналізувати стан, причини та динаміку соматичних захворювань студентів I–IV курсів. Матеріал і методи дослідження.  Для  визначення стану соматичних захворювань студентів 1–4 курсів навчання Східноєвропейського національного університету імені Лесі Українки використовували аналіз медичних карток. У роботі не використовували особисті дані осіб, які були залучені до дослідження. Аналізувалися лише їхні дані в узагальненому вигляді. Участь у дослідженні була добровільною та не передбачала жодної форми задоволення. Підбір навчальних груп студентів здійснювався випадковим методом. Загальна вибірка становить 50 306 осіб. Усі особи, які брали участь у дослідженні, давали згоду на участь у досліджені й на подальше опрацювання отриманих результатів, їх опублікування для вільного доступу. Статистичний аналіз зібраних даних виконували за програмним забезпеченням STATISTICA версії 6. Результати роботи. Установлено, що рівень захворюваності студентів має тенденцію до зростання показників соматичних розладів у негативну сторону. Найбільшу кількість осіб спеціальної медичної групи зосереджено на педагогічному факультеті, а найменшу – на факультеті мистецтв. Як показали наші дослідження, аналіз динаміки захворювань 2010–2016 рр. дає можливість констатувати, що відсоток «відносно здорових» осіб щороку зменшується. Найбільш розповсюджені хвороби серцево-судинної системи, шлунка та органів травлення, опорно- рухового апарату тощо. Під час аналізу нозологічних форм захворювань за гендерними ознаками треба зауважити, що відсоток жінок із I-го по ІV-й курс із протягом зазначеного періоду дослідження значно  більший,  ніж чоловіків. Збільшується також відсоток осіб, віднесених за станом здоров’я до спеціальної медичної  групи. Лідером у цій групі за кількістю захворювань теж є жінки. Висновки. Загалом стан здоров’я студентів низький. Протягом навчання у вищому закладі освіти виявлено зростання серцево-судинних захворювань. Такий стан зумовлює розробку адаптивних методик оздоровлення й фізичного розвитку молоді.

En el presente artículo, que constitye un acápite del libro Los bigotes de la Mona Lisa, se comenta que la condición de la cultura en el siglo actual es susceptible de ser caracterizada a partir de tres vectores fundamentales que están orientando su mutación, a saber: la convergencia tecno-científica que redunda en el despliegue de las tecnologías numéricas como fundamento y condición de posibilidad de la Híper Industria Cultural.

La “estenopeica” (proyecto de fotografía analógica y alternativa) es la oportunidad de vivir la fotografía desde una perspectiva diferente. Es también una posición política que nos permite experimentarla de manera alternativa a los paradigmas de la fotografía contemporanea, alejados de la absorbente industria, de los equipos costosos y la tecnología inaccesible. Es una fotografía imperfecta, artesanal e íntimamente personal que deja conocer más cerca y de manera más profunda el milagro de la imagen latente.

Las transformaciones sufridas por el sistema comunicacional en Chile establecen la desaparición de lo público como un componente decisivo. A causa de ello la concentración estaría afectando la pluralidad y el significado de lo social. Sin embargo, se puede sugerir que hoy se produce una dimensión de lo público asociado a nuevas configuraciones y representaciones que dependen de una gubernamentalidad de lo mediático. Ella instala su trabajo en el campo de la conducta y de las emociones y ofrece una diversidad narrativa a las identidades que ponen en discusión el carácter de las políticas públicas.

Lo «des-comunal» como el advenimiento de un campo de fuerza insumisa, disruptiva y devastadora de todo aquietamiento jurídico e institucional de lo político.

Resumo: Os sambaquis são definidos como sítios arqueológicos, localizados na paisagem holocênica do Período Quaternário. A fauna malacológica é o principal constituinte dos sambaquis, influenciando na sua composição química e estrutural. O sambaqui do Boguaçu, com 7 m de altura, localiza-se nas margens do rio de mesmo nome, o qual desemboca na baía de Guaratuba. Ao todo, foram encontrados e analisados 10 exemplares de cinco espécies distintas de moluscos marinhos pertencentes a cinco famílias, que apresentavam vestígios de utilização por seres humanos.

INFORMAL ECONOMY IN TURKEY: IMPLEMENTATION OF THE “TÜRKKART” SYSTEM; ECONOMETRIC AND STRATEGIC ANALYSIS
Authors: AKSU Levent
Published: October 2019

Türkkart sistemi, Türkiye’nin kalkınması için anahtar olan ekonomik-sosyal işlevleri barındıran akıllı kart sistemidir. Bu kart sistemi, finansal ve mali olarak denetim, kontrol, düzenleme ve uygulamalar açısından Türkiye’yi çağdaş
bir noktaya getireceğinden, ülkemizi “gelişmekte” olan ülkeler sıralamasından çıkarıp, “gelişmiş ülkeler” sıralamasında üst noktalara çıkaracaktır. “TÜRKKART” adını verdiğimiz bu sistem çok önemli işlevleri yerine getirecek ve
en önemlisi dünya siyaset ve ekonomi sahnesinde Türkiye’yi öne çıkaracak bir eko-sosyal kart olacaktır. Bu sistem parayı ortadan kaldıran bir sistem değildir. Paranın kontrolünü, düzenlenmesini ve denetimini sağlatan akıllı bir
sistemdir. Uzun yıllardır tedavülde olan kağıt para sisteminde birtakım önemli sorunlar ortaya çıkmaya başlamıştır. Türkkart sisteminde taklit, tahrif, her türlü sahteciliği önlemek amacıyla önemli işlevsel özellikleri içinde barındıran
geleceğin yaşam kart sistemidir. Bu sistemde, kayıtdışı ekonomi kayıt altına alınmış olur, gelir dağılımında adaletli bir yapının oluşmasına imkan verir, vergi adaletini sağlar, vergi kaçakçılığı ve vergiden kaçınmanın önüne geçilerek
keyfilik önlenmiş olur, üretim kaynaklarında israfın önüne geçilir, üretimde etkinlik ve verimlilik sağlanır, üretim modelleri net olarak belirlenebilir, uygulanacak maliye ve para politikalarının önü açılır, ekonomiye dinamizm
katar, ekonomide istikrar oluşturarak kırılgan bir ekonomiden disiplinli ve dayanıklı bir ekonomik yapının tesis edilmesini sağlar. Ekonometrik analiz olarak 1970-2017 yıllarını kapsayan çalışmada 8 farklı değişken (GSMH, Büyüme
Oranları, Kayıtdışı Ekonomi miktarı, Dolanımdaki Para miktarı, Hesaplanan Dolanımdaki Para, İllegal Para miktarı, Paranın Gelir Hızı, Kayıtdışı Ekonomi Yüzdesi) ele alınmış olup, 48 yıllık süreci kapsamaktadır. Yapılan Granger
Nedensellik testi ve VAR Nedensellik (WALD) testleri ile kısa ve uzun dönemde değişkenler arasındaki nedensellik ilişkisi incelenmiştir. Kısa dönemdeki analizlerde; kayıtdışı ekonomiden GSMH’ya doğru tek yönlü ve negatif ilişki
saptanmıştır. İllegal para ile kayıtdışı ekonomi değişkenleri arasında çift yönlü ve pozitif ilişki tespit edilmiştir. İllegal paradan GSMH’ya ve iktisadi büyüme oranına doğru tek yönlü ve pozitif bir ilişki saptanmıştır. Paranın
gelir hızından kayıtdışı ekonomiye doğru tek yönlü pozitif bir ilişki bulgulanmıştır. Yine paranın gelir hızından GSMH’ya doğru tek yönlü bir ilişki mevcuttur. Uzun dönemde ise, kayıtdışı ekonomi ile GSMH değişkenleri arasında
negatif bir ilişki mevcuttur. İllegal para ile kayıtdışı ekonomi arasında çift yönlü ve pozitif ilişki saptanmıştır. İllegal para ile GSMH arasında çift yönlü ve pozitif bir ilişki bulunmuştur.
DEVELOPMENTS IN RELIGIOUS EDUCATION IN TURKEY DURING THE PERIOD OF THE GOVERNMENT OF ŞEMSEDDIN GUNALTAY BEFORE THE 1950 ELECTIONS

1946 seçimleri Türkiye Cumhuriyetinde çok partili hayata geçişte bir milat olarak kabul edilir. Seçimlerden sonra 4 yıllığına ülkeyi yönetecek olan iktidar partisi 23 yıldır iktidarda olan Cumhuriyet halk Partisi olmuştur. Her ne kadar
açık oy gizli tasnif ilkesi doğrultusunda yapılmış ve şaibeli seçimler! Olarak Türk Siyasal hayatına girmişse de nihai olarak iktidarı belirlemiştir. 46 seçimlerinden sonra siyaset bir sonraki seçimler için ülke genelinde aktif
olarak çalışmalar muhalefet partilerinde başlamıştır. Bu çalışmalar esnasında muhalefetin en çok kullandığı argüman “din” olmuştur. Gerek Halkevlerinde, Köy Enstitülerinde dini yayın yasağı gerekse ilkokul müfredatında din dersinin
olamaması, İmam Hatip yetiştiren okulların öğrencisizlikten kapanması, aynı kaderi yaşayan İlahiyat Fakülteleri gibi dini eğitim veren kurumların eksikliği muhalefetçe çok fazla kullanılır hale gelmiştir. Bunu engellemek ve 1950
yılında yapılacak olan seçimlerde halkın iradesini alarak yeniden iktidarda kalmayı hedefleyen Cumhuriyet Halk Partisi, seçimlerden önce; Şemseddin Günaltay Hükümeti ile faaliyetler noktasında icraatlar yapmıştır. Çalışmada CHP’nin
tek parti dönemi son başbakanı olan Şemseddin Günaltay Hükümeti döneminde Türkiye’de dini eğitim noktasındaki icraatları amaçlanarak seçimler incesi yapılan politikalar irdelenmeye çalışılmıştır. Nitel araştırma yöntemlerinden
belge ve doküman analiz yöntemi kullanılarak yapılan çalışma neticesinde; Türkiye Cumhuriyetinde dini yasaklı olan eğitim kurumları ile öğrenci olmadığı için kapanan dini eğitim veren okulların tekrar açıldığı görülmüş ve bunun
laiklik ile çatışması parti içerisinde, seçimler noktasında kullanılması ise meydanlarda olduğu görülmüştür.

Dünyada özellikle 20. yüzyıl ve sonrasında sanayileşmenin gelişmesiyle birlikte kentlerdeki nüfus yoğunluğunun artması neticesinde, çevresel sorunlar önemli düzeyde kendini göstermeye başlamıştır. Dünya ülkelerinde görülen çevresel
sorunların benzeri Türkiye’de de yaşanmakta olup, çevresel sorunların giderilmesine yönelik birtakım faaliyetler yürütülmektedir. Ancak ülke genelinde yürütülen faaliyetlerin yeterli düzeyde olduğunu söylemek güçtür. Çevre sorunlarının
giderilmesine yönelik kalıcı çözümler günümüzde ne yazık ki istenilen düzeyde değildir. Çevre sorunlarının tamamen ortadan kaldırılmasının günümüz koşullarında neredeyse imkansız olduğu söylenebilir. Fakat çevresel sorunların en
aza indirilmesi ve bu doğrultuda tedbirlerin alınmasına yönelik faaliyetler gerçekleştirilebilir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, Türkiye’de görülen çevre sorunlarının genel olarak gündeme taşınmasıdır. Bu doğrultuda, Türkiye’nin en doğusunda,
hem çevre illerden hem de yurt dışından göç alan sınır ilimiz olan Van ili örneklem olarak alınmıştır. Araştırmada nitel araştırma türleri arasında yer alan yüz yüze görüşme ve gözlem yöntemi kullanılarak, Van ilinde görülen çevre
sorunları dile getirilmiş ve önerilerde bulunulmuştur.

Authors: Hayat Niazi Sikander
Published: October 2019

Objectives: To understand the histopathology of various diseases of vermiform appendix, the knowledge of normal histology of the organ at different age group is mandatory. Study Design: Comparative study. Setting: Islamic International Medical College Rawalpindi. Period: January 2014 to March 2015. Material and Methods: Total forty negative appendectomy/normal appendices specimens removed along with other abdominal operations were included in this study. Four equal groups (10 specimens in each) were made, spacing 15 years between each group. The last group had no upper age limit due to less availability of the specimens. The middle parts of specimens were included in this study the various parameters i.e. wall thickness, lymphoid nodules and lumen sizes were measured under microscope after calibration in micrometers after staining. Results: The lumen size decreases with advancing age. There was inverse relationship between lumen size and wall thickness. Surprisingly sum of mean lumen size and mean wall thickness of all age groups had no much difference. The number and size of lymphoid nodules decreases with advancing age. Conclusion: Although lumen size decreased as age advances but did not obliterate completely till 74 years age. The number and size of lymphoid nodule decreased but wall thickness size remained same and they are observed even at the age of 74 years.
