Road traffic accidents are a major public health concern. In developing countries road traffic accidents are among the leading cause of death and injury. Ethiopia experiences the highest rate of such accidents in Sub-Saharan Africa. Out of all the accidents registered in Ethiopia, Addis Ababa accounts for 60% on average especially in Wolaita zone more 25% on average. The objective of this study is to identify factors that contribute to the occurrence of road traffic accidents leading to human injuries and death. For study purpose we employed ordinal logistic regression models to identify factors influencing traffic fatalities and injuries. Stratified sampling with proportional allocation and simple random sampling technique are used to select samples from recorded frame. The result of ordinal logistic regression analyses shows that drivers aged 18-30 years caused the largest number of accidents.

The helicity of stable single, double, and triple helical iodine chains inside singe-walled boron nitride nanotubes is studied using the calculation of the systematic interaction energy. The results indicate that the optimal helical radius increases linearly with the radius of the tube. Hence, there is a constant distance between the I-chain and the tube’s wall. The optimal helical angle depends on the inter-chain interaction. It is affected, however, by the tube’s confinement effect: a small opt(φ) can be induced by large inter-chain for the same tube or a large tube for the same chain structure. The helicity of the encapsulated I-chains is insensitive to the tube’s chirality but depends strongly on the tube diameter.

The electrochemical detection of staphylococcus aureus by the electrode of clay paste modified by amoxicillin (AMX-Clay) is described. The electrodes of AMX-Clay were then used to detect the staphylococcus aureus with low optical densities by using the cyclic voltammetry (CV), the voltammetry with square waves (swv) and the spectroscopy of electrochemical impedance (EIS) in physiological mediums. Electrochemical parameters like the time of deposit and the concentration of the amoxicillin on the surface of the clay electrode were optimized. The elaborate electrode showed a good electroactivity, resulting in the packing of current, in the presence of the bacteria.

This work was design when there is a need to investigate the effect of climate on growth of different varieties of rice in Greater Yola. The study was conducted in a research farm located in Sangere FUTY, Greater Yola, Adamawa State during the 2014 rainy season (3rd June – 7th October 2014). Experimental farm was designed base on Randomized Complete Block Designed (RCBD) system. Three selected varieties of rice; Nerica L20, Faro 44 and ITA 206 were planted and replicated three times and measurement was taken on them. Daily climatic data were collected from Modibbo Adama University of Technology Meteorological Station. Climatic pattern in the study area during the growing period indicated that, highest rainfall was recorded in the month of August and decreases toward October. Relative Humidity showed a direct relationship with rainfall, while the remaining climatic elements showed inverse relationship with Rainfall and Relative humidity. Variation in growth of rice revealed that, there is a variation in plant Height and Leave length at P= 0.05, but no variation in Culm diameter. Correlation result showed that, rainfall has a positive relationship with rice at all the developmental stages, it is positive at P= 0.05 in vegetative stage and at P= 0.01 in Reproductive and ripening stage.

A case of 28 years female with no significant past medical history presented with malignant hypertension. She was found to have Polyarteritis nodosa involving the kidney on angiography. She was treated successfully with steroids and cytotoxic drugs and made uneventful recovery. Her kidney function remained stable and her BP was controlled on Po medications. Even though she was negative for hepatitis B infection, the association was strongly confirmed in about 10% of patients. PAN should be suspected in any patients with multisystem involvement with hypertension and minimal findings in urinalysis. Polyneuropathy and high ESR are also red flags for PAN.

The focus of this study is to critically examine the Western debate on State failure in Africa. Western research Institutes and Agencies such as the Freedom House Annual Survey, the Fund for Peace Index and the World Bank Governance Matters have come to the conclusion that most African States have failed in the discharge of their statutory responsibilities. This is because they are unable and incapable of sustaining democratic institutions and protecting the lives and property of their citizens. As a qualitative research,. data collected was through primary and secondary sources. The primary sources included discussions and interviews, while the secondary sources was literature review, Newspapers, official Bulletins and magazines It was discovered that the State failure debate did not take into consideration Africa’s Colonial and neo- Colonial experiences. Also the policy implication of this project is to ensure that the continent’s political economy is within the control of the global capitalist system. We, therefore, recommend that African leaders should not be bothered about this development, but be concerned about the provision of good governance and human security.

Objective: To describe the management of pregnant woman with premature rupture of membranes at term. Patients and methods: A Cross sectional study conducted during two months. Were included, pregnant women with a gestational age greater than or equal to 37 weeks who presented a Premature Rupture of Membranes (PROM). Those with associated fetal death in utero, were excluded. Results: The frequency of PROM was 4.25% of deliveries; the pregnant mean age was 29.5 years, ranging from 16 to 46 years. Thirty-seven pregnant or 80.4% have performed more than 4 prenatal consultations. Etiological research was unsuccessful in 42 cases (91.3%) At admission, we observed 13 pregnant (28.3%) not in labor. 23 pregnant in labor transition stage. Sixteen pregnant women (34.8%) had meconium. The duration PROM was 1 to 6 hours, with over a third of pregnant women. The Caesarean delivery was the mode of delivery the most common with 27 cases (58.7%). Thirty-two infants (69.6%) born from mothers who experienced rupture of membranes had a rating Apgar in the first minute of 7 to 10; this score was between 4 and 6 in 14 newborns (30.4%). When the Apgar was between 4 and 6 in the first minute, the Fisher test indicates no significant difference between mode of delivery and the color of the amniotic fluid. By cons when the Apgar was between 7 and 10, the difference was significant, and there are 68.2% of vaginal deliveries when the amniotic fluid is clear. For the Apgar score between 7 and10, 100% of vaginal deliveries. Conclusion: In case of PROM in term pregnancy with a favorable Bishop score, we practice a systematic labor induction. If local conditions are unfavorable, a wait of 24 hours is allowed, after which cervix maturation for a labor induction is performed.

This article argued how Ethical Orientation of HRM (EOHRM) could influence Ethical Decision-making (EDM) in organizations, by bridging the identified research gaps. EOHRM is a new concept in HRM literature. It is ‘the extent to which HRM functions have been directed to create, enhance and maintain ethicality within employees, to generate an ethical work force in the organization’. Unethical decision-making and immoral behavior of employees in organizations have become a serious global concern for over three decades. Unethical decision is a decision that is either illegal or morally unacceptable to the society, which could impact on the behavior of employees. The role of HRM functions on organizational performance had received much scholarly attention over the years. Despite its significance in contributing towards the organizational performance, theoretical or empirical research conducted on its impact on EDM are limited.

The Nightingale of India, Sarojini Naidu was a prolific writer and poet. Her poems express the personal emotions and quality of life through rhyme. Her spontaneous overflow of emotions and Indian ethos is poured out in a lyrical style. This fusion of feelings, music and imagery in expressing Indian life has made her worthy to be called, “The Nightingale of India”. With this lyrical wealth, she has beautifully expressed the hearts and emotions of Indians. She attempted to write mostly short poems, each dealing with a single concept and emotion. She has dealt with various concepts like the life of Indian people, beauty of nature, philosophy of life, Indian women, and patriotism.She was given the name Bharat Kokila on account of the beautiful and rhythmic words of her poems that could be sung as well.“Mrs Naidu has not only enriched our language, but has enabled us to grow into intimate relation with the spirit, the emotions and glamour of the East.”
