Drug susceptibility pattern of gram negative bacterial isolates among hematological malignancy patients undergoing chemotherapy TikurAnbesa Specialized Hospital, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia
Creators: name: Asres, Manie
Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2017

description: Background: Gram negative bacterial infections are a major cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with hematological malignancies (HM) undergoing chemotherapy. The choice of empiric antimicrobial treatment is based on susceptibility pattern of locally isolated gram negative bacteria. Objective; to determine susceptibility pattern of gram negative bacterial (GNB) isolates and potential risk factors among hematological malignancy patients who undergo chemotherapy in Tikur Anbessa Specialized Hospital(TASH). Methods: A case control study was carried out for determining drug susceptibility pattern and associated risk factors for gram negative infections in patients with hematological malignancies in TASH Between March to August, 2016. A convenient sampling technique was used to select the study participants. Controls were patients admitted in the same ward during the same period but without gram negative infections. Equal number of cases and controls were included. Data was analyzed by using SPSS for windows version 21.0 and EPIINFO version 7.0. Differences between group proportions were assessed by chi-square X2 or McNemar's test. Potential risk factors were analyzed by using univariate and multivariate analysis. For risk factor analysis p value and likelihood ratio were calculated. P<0.05 was considered significant. Results: Forty seven patients with gram negative infection (GNBI) and forty seven matched patients without gram negative infection (GNBI) were identified from TASH microbiology laboratory from March2016 to August 2016. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that four independent risk factors were significantly associated with GNBI in patients with HM. They were neutropenia (OR 12.2; 95% CI, 4.44-33.49; p<0.001), Durations of Neutropenia (OR, 28.42; 95% CI, 7.62-105.94 P=0.004), Length of Hospital Stay (OR 83; 95% CI, 5.11-1349.24; p<0.001), and Sever Neutropenia (OR 7.96; 95% CI, 2.46-52.82p=0.0004). The predominate isolate was maximally sensitive to carbapenems (92%) followed by aminoglycosides 80%. The multi-drug resistance rate of all GNB isolates in this study, K.pneumonia (37%) was predominating followed by E.coli 3(26%).Except cefepem all third generations' cephalosporin drugs had low sensitivity. Conclusions: Our findings suggest that gram negative infections in patients with hematological malignancies strictly correlate with severity of neutropenia and extended hospital stays. The results of this study initiate the hematology unit for the development of effective interventions to minimize the impact of GNBI in TASH. Continuous surveillance of the bacterial etiologies and its antimicrobial susceptibility pattern is crucial.

Performance Evaluation of Laboratory Professionals on Malaria Smear Microscopy in Hawassa City, Southern Ethiopia
Creators: name: Ayalew, Freshwork
Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2014

description: Background: Microscopic diagnosis of Geimsa stained thick and thin blood films by skilled microscopists has remained the standard laboratory method for the diagnosis of malaria. However, diagnosis of malaria with this method is problematic since interpretation of results requires considerable expertise particularly at low parasite level. Objective: The objective of the study was to evaluate the performance of laboratory professionals in diagnosis of malaria/plasmodium species in Hawassa city. Methods: A cross-sectional study design was employed. Among a total of eighty laboratory professionals working in public and private health facilities, seventy two were willing to participate with a response rate of 90%(72/80). Information on demographic characteristics was collected using a self-administered questionnaire. A total of 10 pre-validated panels of malaria slides were then distributed to assess laboratory professionals' performances on detection, differentiation of common species of malaria and quantification of parasite density. Results: The mean age of the participants was 27 (SD= 4.1) years and more than half of participants (56.9%) were female. Thirty-two (44.4%) of the participants were from two government hospitals, 9(12.5%) were from three private hospitals and 31(43.1%) were from six government health centers. Fourteen (19.4%) of participants correctly reported all the ten distributed slides and 58(80.6%) missed at least one slide. Overall, the sensitivity and specificity of participants in detection of malaria parasites were 82% and 96.5% respectively and had 88% agreement with reference readers. The overall agreement between participants and reference readers for identification of malaria species was 74.3%; relatively the agreement was lower for government health centers (69%). Conclusion: The overall sensitivity and specificity of participants in detection of malaria parasites were 82% and 96.5% respectively; however, they had low (74.3%) agreement in identification of different species of malaria. Especially, lower agreement was reported for parasites at low density and identification of mixed infection. Participants from government health center were found to have low performances in identification of malaria parasite.

description: An exact solution is obtained for the gravitational bending of light in static, spherically symmetric metrics which includes the Schwarzschild-de Sitter spacetime and also the Mannheim-Kazanas metric of conformal Weyl gravity. From the exact solution, we obtain a small bending-angle-approximation for a lens system where the source, lens and observer are co-aligned. This expansion improves previous calculations where we systematically avoid parameter ranges that correspond to non-existent null trajectories. The linear coefficient $γ$ characteristic to conformal gravity is shown to contribute enhanced deflection compared to the angle predicted by General Relativity for small $γ$.

Characterization and Enzymatic Transesterification of Pork Lard for the Synthesis of Leather Fatliquor and Biodiesel
Creators: name: Tsega, Teklu
Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2014

description: Pork lard (PL) is a class of lipids and oils organic compounds consisting of both saturated and unsaturated fatty acids that can be modified into biodiesel and leather fatliquor for industrial applications. The fat of the pork was collected from the back attached below the skin and around the belly and kidney of the Caracas. After the oils and fats were extracted and purified, characterization for its physicochemical properties, pattern of triglycerides and fatty acid compositions was done by analytical analysis and using Gas Chromatography (GC), Gas Chromatography Mass Spectroscopy (GC-MS) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) instrumental tools. The aim of present research work was the synthesis of biodiesel or Fatty Acid Methyl Ester (FAME) by enzyme catalysed transesterification process using Porcine Pancreatic Lipase (PPL) as a catalyst and the production of leather fatliquor by sulfitation and external emulsification processing methods. The effect of three parameters including Pork Lard to methanol molar ratio, temperature and reaction time on the transesterification reaction (TER) was investigated by keeping 5% enzyme concentration (based on oil weight) and 200 revolutions per minute (rpm) stirring rate constant. The maximum yield of biodiesel was 81 % at 1:4 molar ratio of oil to methanol and 40 oc temperatures after 36 hours reaction time. PL consists of 44% oleic acid and 11%linoleic acid which are suitable to add polar functional group by sulfitation reaction. In this study a promising fatliquor was synthesized from PL by sulfitation and external emulsification method after complete characterization of the fats and lipids. The synthesized sulphited fatliquor gives the leather better multifunctional properties such as softness, handle, colour uniformity, roundness, and better tensile and tear strength properties. This new fatliquor also has unique waxy characteristics which give an attractive burnishable effect in finishing especially for shoe upper leather that most of the conventional commercial fatliquors cannot give.

description: Die nachfolgende Fallstudie analysiert die Anpassungsreaktionen des Unternehmens auf strategischer wie operativer Ebene. Untersucht werden insbesondere die TOP-Bewegung, 1992/93 initiiert durch den Zentralvorstand (ZV), und entsprechende Umstrukturierungsprozesse in den drei Unternehmensbereichen (UB)1 Öffentliche Netze (ÖN), Private Netze (PN) und Siemens Nixdorf Informationssysteme AG (SNI). Zu fragen ist, wie weit das Unternehmen über inkrementalistische Anpassungsreaktionen hinaus transformatorische Umstrukturierungsprozesse initiieren und kontinuisieren konnte. Angesichts des teilweise nur begrenzt auswertbaren Materials, der Selektivität der ausgewählten Bereiche und des zeitlich begrenzten Beobachtungsraumes seit 1992/93 bis Mitte 1995 können die nachfolgenden Ausführungen natürlich nur eine exemplarische Zwischenbilanz eines komplexen Wandlungsprozesses darstellen.

As examples for adequate processes "Public Network" (ÖN), "Private Network" (PN) and "Siemens Nixdorf information systems" (SNI) are presented. This article presents interim results of complex transformation processes due to the selectivity of the chosen examples, time restrictions (1992/93 to summer 1995) and restricted evaluation material.

description: Interdisciplinarity and the orientation towards practice are viewed as the key qualifications for scientific support in the Federal Republic. But "eagerly speaking about what ist to be, one forgets what is" (Th.W. Adorno) - empirical social research has managed to realize these two qualifications in a most exemplary way. It has accompanied social change in the Federal Republic with regard to the future: the democratization after the fascist dictatorchip, the modernization of public service systems (education, social security, health). Rendering society economic is making great demands on the way social research views itself as well as on its infrastructure. This reorientation challenges the balancing of the latest developments in research, which have been accomplished up to now, in order to secure them in the sense of a cumulative progress in realization.
description: Interdisziplinarität und Praxisorientierung rechnen derzeit zu den Schlüsselqualifikationen für die Wissenschaftsförderung in der Bundesrepublik. Doch im Eifer zusagen, was sein soll, wird übersehen, was ist (Th.W. Adorno) - die Empirische Sozialforschung hat diese beiden Qualifikationen seit ihrem Neubeginn nach 1945 in einer beispielgebenden Weise verwirklicht. Sie hat den Sozialen Wandel in der Bundesrepublik vorausschauend und unterstützend begleitet: die Demokratisierung nach der NS Diktatur, die Modernisierung der öffentlichen Dienstleistungssysteme (Bildung, Soziale Sicherheit, Gesundheit). Die Ökonomisierung der Gesellschaft stellt derzeit neue Anforderungen an das Selbstverständnis und an die Infrastruktur der Sozialforschung. Die Neuorientierung fordert dazu heraus, den erreichten Forschungsstand zu bilanzieren und im Sinne eines kumulativen Erkenntnisfortschritts zu sichern.

description: We study Earth matter effect in oscillation of supernovae neutrinos. We show that detecting Earth matter effect gives an independent measurement of spectra of supernovae neutrinos, i.e. the flavor difference of the spectra of supernovae neutrinos. We study the effect of energy resolution and angular resolution of final electron or positron on detecting the signal of Earth matter effect. We show that varying the widths of energy bins in analysis can change the signal strength of Earth matter effect and the statistical fluctuation. A reasonable choice of energy bins can both suppress the statistical fluctuation and make out a good signal strength relative to the statistical fluctuation. Neutrino detectors with good energy resolution and good angular resolution are therefore preferred so that there are more freedom to vary energy bins and to optimize the signal of Earth matter effect in analyzing events of supernovae neutrinos.

description: Die Zuverlässigkeit von Ergebnissen aus Zufallsstichproben hängt von Art und Umfang der Antwortausfälle ab. Speziell bei Unternehmensbefragungen muß damit gerechnet werden, daß die Ausfälle aufgrund der besonderen Befragungssituation nicht zufällig sind. Der vorliegende Beitrag will nun die Unterschiede zwischen Befragungen von Akteuren als Repräsentanten von Unternehmen und Interviews in anderen Kontexten herausarbeiten. Im Anschluß daran wird der Verhaltensprozeß modelliert, der bei Betriebsbefragungen zu der Entscheidung für oder gegen eine Teilnahme führt. Dieses Vorgehen soll Forschern dabei helfen, Unterschiede im Verhalten von Teilnehmern und Verweigerern zu erklären und diejenigen Elemente zu identifizieren, die sie selbst in einer Befragungssituation beeinflussen können.
description: Reliable conclusions from random samples require that nonresponses are relatively few and non-systematical. In particular, establishment surveys have a higher risk of bias in nonresponse than the more common surveys of individual interviewees. This article argues that this is caused by the special features of the interview situation in establishment surveys: When replying to researchers' questions, individuals as representatives of organisations act under very different sets of constraints compared to individuals as 'representatives of themselves'. This leads to differences in decision-making about survey participation. These differences will be explored with special attention to a theoretical explanation of nonresponse and to aspects of the interview situation which researchers might be able to influence in favour of higher response probabilities.

description: The Fatou-Julia iteration theory of rational and transcendental entire functions has recently been extended to quasiregular maps in more than two real dimensions. Our goal in this paper is similar; we extend the iteration theory of analytic self-maps of the punctured plane to quasiregular self-maps of punctured space. We define the Julia set as the set of points for which the complement of the forward orbit of any neighbourhood of the point is a finite set. We show that the Julia set is non-empty, and shares many properties with the classical Julia set of an analytic function. These properties are stronger than those known to hold for the Julia set of a general quasiregular map of space. We define the quasi-Fatou set as the complement of the Julia set, and generalise a result of Baker concerning the topological properties of the components of this set. A key tool in the proof of these results is a version of the fast escaping set. We generalise various results of Marti-Pete concerning this set, for example showing that the Julia set is equal to the boundary of the fast escaping set.

description: Auf den Verdrängungswettbewerb im Sektor der Laborarbeit reagieren die Unternehmen u.a. mit verstärktem EDV-Einsatz, z. B. mit Laborinformations- und -managementsystemen, die für das chemische Labor seit den achtziger Jahren angeboten werden. Implizite Leitidee des EDV-Einsatzes ist die vollständige naturwissenschaftlich-technische Durchdringung der Chemiearbeit: Solch eine Annahme geht jedoch am Charakter der Laborantentätigkeit vorbei - wie an zwei Fallbeispielen herausgearbeitet wird. Die traditionelle Stärke der Arbeitskräfte im chemischen Labor bei der Bewältigung von Problemsituationen liegt im Arbeitsprozeßwissen der Laboranten: der Verschmelzung - von Arbeitserfahrung, die Eigenarten von Meßgeräten und Analyseprozessen betreffend, - mit der pragmatischen Nutzung von naturwissenschaftlichen und umweltrechtlichen Kenntnissen - und der betriebsspezifischen Erfahrung, wie Arbeitsaufgaben im Rahmen des Arbeitstags effektiv geplant und miteinander verknüpft werden können. Diese Stärke laborantenspezifischen Arbeitshandelns wird im Rahmen der Gestaltung der Arbeitsmittel im Labor nur unzureichend berücksichtigt. Dies betrifft die Meßtechnik ebenso wie Laborinformationssysteme.

Laboratory Information Management Systems which have been available for chemical laboratories since the 1980s could be a solution.

Such an assumption, however, disregards the nature of skilled work in the chemical laboratory. This is illustrated in two case studies. The traditional strength of successful work performance - particularly with regard to critical situations - lies in the work process knowledge of staff members combining: - work experience concerning special characteristics of measuring instruments and analytic processes; - the pragmatic use of knowledge from natural sciences and environmental standards; - company specific experience of how to efficiently plan and combine working tasks within the working day. This strength is not sufficiently considered within the design of working tools for the chemical laboratory - this is true for measuring instruments as well as for Laboratory Information Management Systems.

Studies on Optimization of Amylase Extraction Using Fabricated Extractor Column for Fiber Opening and Characterization of Enzyme
Creators: name: Biniyam, Abdissa

description: Amylases are important hydrolase enzymes which have been widely used since many decades. αAmylase is in maximum demand due to its wide range of applications and plays a pivotal role such as leather making process. Due to absence of cheap and effective extraction method, it mostly leads to loss of enzyme activity as well as waste of crude enzyme extract. This present work is concerned with characterization and studies to maximize and optimize the extraction process using fabricated extractor column from bacterial culture under solid state fermentation (SSF) using agro industrial residue for fiber opening. Various process parameters are optimized for maximum extraction of enzyme. The finding of the study suggests that, the optimum condition for maximum amylase extraction with medium sized wheat bran at pH of 7.1 and temperature of 30 0 C yields 1332.31 U/gds and 2374.51 U/gds in solid state fermentation media respectively. In continuous column extraction process with optimum buffer flowing at rate of 100ml/min and optimum bed volume of 200gm provides a maximum activity of 1081.8 U/gds. Comparing batch with column system of extraction, the combined activity shows 114.89 and 551.3 U/gds respectively. Moreover, by comparing the conventional with experimental method of extraction, it shows a combined activity of 347.7 and 450.5 U/gds respectively. Hence the total yield of column extraction process shows 75% higher as compared with batch system and conventional method of enzyme extraction process. In order to check the benefits of α-amylase, the crude enzyme extract is partially purified before applying it on leather. In an attempt to reduce the pollution load from pre tanning operation, a concentrated amylase is applied on goat skin. Hence, studying the effect of fiber opening between enzymatic and chemical process by various tests were carried out. The finding revealed that the extracted enzyme releases 7.3 mg/gm of proteoglycans after enzyme treatment. The effect of fiber splitting on the strength properties related morphological changes of the crust leather samples were thoroughly investigated. SEM analysis was also carried out. According to the result an economical enzyme produced in this study shows a significant release of inter fibrillary materials. The strength property of crust leather shows tensile strength of 216.4 Kg/cm 3 , tear strength of 42.76 Kg/cm and 62.17% elongation at break.

description: Seit Jahren nimmt der Anteil der betriebsbezogenen Qualifizierungsmaßnahmen am gesamten Weiterbildungsgeschehen kontinuierlich zu. Dies aber zeigt keineswegs nur das steigende Interesse von Betrieben und Beschäftigten an "lebenslangem Lernen" an, sondern indiziert vor allem einen steigenden Einfluß der Betriebe auf Inhalte und Gestaltung der beruflichen Weiterbildung sowie - komplementär - einen Rückgang staatlicher Regulierungsversuche. Die "Verbetrieblichung" von Weiterbildung impliziert daher auch einen Wandel ihrer gesellschaftlichen Bedeutung sowie eine Veränderung der Zugangschancen und der beruflichen Verwertbarkeit für die (potentiellen) TeilnehmerInnen. In dem Beitrag werden vor diesem Hintergrund sowohl die sich abzeichnenden bildungspolitischen Konsequenzen dieses Prozesses diskutiert als auch Schlußfolgerungen gezogen in bezug auf neue Aufgabenstellungen und ein neues Selbstverständnis der Bildungsforschung.
description: For years now, the share of firm-related qualification measures as a part of the entirety of continuing vocational training events has been increasing continuously. This does not only show the firms and employees growing interest in "lifelong learning", but above all it gives an indication of the firms rising influence on contents and organization of continuing vocational training, as well as - in a complementary way - of the decline of regulation attempts by the state. The "institutionalization of CVT in the firm" ("Verbetrieblichung" of CVT) thus implies a change of its social relevance as well as a modification of access chances and vocational usability for (potential) participants. Against this background, the paper presents both a discussion of the emerging consequences in educational policy and conclusions with respect to new tasks and a new self-image of educational policy research.

description: The synthesis and characterization of substrates suitable for the study of [1,3]-, [1,4]- and [l,5]-asymmetric induction was undertaken. Their reduction in the presence of Lewis acids was investigated. The extent and direction of asymmetric induction was investigated by variation of Lewis acid, solvent and reducing agent. Competing mechanisms in [1,5]-symmetric reductions was demonstrated. Molecular mechanics calculations were used to predict the extent and direction of asymmetric induction on the basis of the lower energy conformers of suitable model structures. Crystal structures were used to develop a set of MM2 force field parameters for an octahedral titanium complex. An ab initio study was prepared in order to improve the parameterization of the MM2 force field.

description: We consider localized qubits evolving around a black hole following a quantum adiabatic dynamics. We develop a geometric structure (based on fibre bundles) permitting to describe the quantum states of a qubit and the spacetime geometry in a single framework. The quantum decoherence induced by the black hole on the qubit is analysed in this framework (the role of the dynamical and geometric phases in this decoherence is treated), especially for the quantum teleportation protocol when one qubit falls to the event horizon. A simple formula to compute the fidelity of the teleportation is derived. The case of a Schwarzschild black hole is analysed.

Performance Analysis and Improvement of Ethiopian Leather Footwear Factories:
Creators: name: Cherkos, Tomas
Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2011

description: Nowadays there is a need for business enterprises to measure, analyze and improve performance as they encounter increasing competition from an ever-changing business environment. Performance is the valued productive output of a system in the form of goods and services and performance measures are the lifeblood of organizations, since without them no decision can be made, as it is the first step to control and improvement. Though the Government of Ethiopia is promoting the leather footwear industry as a priority area and the sector has a huge potential for developing an economy, its performance is unsatisfactory due to external and internal problems that hinders its competitiveness. Thus, the aim of this study is to assess and evaluate performance management practice of Ethiopian Leather Footwear Factories, identify critical problems and propose a firm level total performance improvement method and suggest roles of stakeholders or improvement directions towards the external problems. To undertake this research, primary and secondary data are collected through a survey questionnaire, interviews (in the form of discussion) and physical observation in the case factory (Anbessa shoe share company), as well as referring previous research works and case company records. To analyze and present the data, pie charts, bar graphs, and cause and effect diagram are used. In addition, to see the performance gap of the case factory, benchmarking is done. From the research, it is concluded that the leather shoe factories have both internal and external problems resulting low performance and competitiveness. To alleviate the internal or firm level problems, a total performance improvement method called Total Performance Scorecard (TPS) is proposed. In addition improvement directions are forwarded towards the external or sector level problems. Regarding the proposed method, a performance measurement framework/scorecards and its implementation guideline is developed for Anbessa S.C. TPS is a combination and also an extension of the concept BSC, TQM and Competences Management which is being defined as a systematic process of continuous, gradual and routine improvement, development and learning. The process focused on the solid increase of both the personal and organizational performances. This method has an important aspect in maximizing the involvement and loyalty of all involved person, as well as encouraging individual and team learning and creativity via its Personal Balanced Scorecard (PBSC).
