This paper critically exposes the concept and legal framework for the implementation of Intellectual Property Rights (IPRS) in Nigeria. Intellectual property in summary comprise legal rights which result from intellectual activity in the industrial, scientific, literary and artistic areas of human endeavours. Most countries including Nigeria have enacted laws to protect intellectual property in order encourage inventors, creators and artists and preserve their rights to the fruits of their labour. Also such laws attract foreign direct investment to the country which creates jobs and increases the country?s revenue through taxes. It was discovered that Nigeria has adequate laws both domestic and International Laws to which Nigeria is a signatory for the protection of Intellectual Property (IP) but what is lacking is diligent implementation of these laws. Consequently, Nigeria has become a destination of first choice for all kinds of pirated works and counterfeited products from various parts of the world. Dubious Nigerian businessmen are also mass producing cassette discs of local movies and popular local songs. Recommendations have been made on how to solve this problem.

Health, in addition to being introduced as a right to the constitution, is regarded as a form of investment or as a means of maintaining the ability and productivity of labor. Health will have increasing productivity and economic growth directly by enhancing the health saving of individuals and indirectly by increasing the motivation for continuing the study and learning better skills. Therefore, the development of the health sector in the country is able to increase the economic growth. In this study, the effect of health expenditures on economic growth in Iran for the period of 1979-2016 is reviewed annually. Todayamamoto causality method for investigating the causality relation, and the ARDL method for evaluating long-run coefficients have been used. The results of the Todayamamoto causality method showed that there is a mutual and causality relation between health expenditure and economic growth in Iran. Also the results of ARDL method exhibited that health expenditure has a significant and positive effect on Iran's economic growth.

Propagation of large amplitude ion acoustic solitons are investigated in four component plasmas, whose constituents are inertial ions, nonthermal electrons, Boltzmannian positrons and dust particulates. The solitary waves as well as its properties are investigated through pseudopotential approach. It is observed that the presence of dust particulates considerably modify the potentials as well as width of the solitary wave.

Kallmann's syndrome (KS) is an inherited disorder distinguished by an association of hypogonadotropic hypogonadism and anosmia or hyposmia. This altered sense of smell is due to the absence or poor development of olfactory bulbs and girdles; the olfactory grooves are absent in their anterior portion with variable development in the posterior region. In this article, we report a case of Kallmann's syndrome in ten years old male patient who presented at the endocrinology department with pubertal delay and clinical findings suspecting Kallmann's syndrome. With hormonal assays, magnetic resonance imaging was performed as a useful adjunct to the diagnosis in the hierarchy of tests, which shows in our case characteristic findings of KS. The treatment is primarily aimed at restoring, normal pubertal development, and, in some cases, normal fertility, but unfortunately, no cure is available concerning olfactory disorders.

This paper is focused on finding out the key determinants of competitiveness in the textile sector, with special reference to Pakistan. Researcher has conducted a survey that is designed to use financial side, productivity side, supply side, and demand side determinants to measure firms’ level Competitiveness. Primary data was collected at five point Likert scale for 145 Listed Textile Companies at Karachi Stock Exchange (KSE). Collected data was then analyzed by using the SEM statistical tool to find out the key components of competitiveness and the rate of interdependency between the dependent and independent variables. The result shows that financial and demand side determinants having a greater positive impact on the competitiveness. Research also suggests that the improvements in financial as well as capital markets to keep the edge along with the more efforts to improve the productivity and supply side can improve the firm’s level competitiveness.

Every academic institution contributes to knowledge. The generated information and knowledge is to be compiled at central place and disseminated among the society for further growth. It is observed that the generated knowledge in the academic institute is not stored or captured properly It is also observed that many a times generated information or knowledge in the academic institute is not known to any one and remains as grey literature, which might be useful if proper recoding is maintained in the organization. In fact academic environment is treasure of knowledge but it is not organized properly and hence utility is also lacking and cause for the repetitions of the activity. This project is undertaken under Board of University and Colleges, University of Pune for finding importance of KM of past knowledge of an institute. Also study on data capture, data analysis, data categorization, data mining, data mapping, knowledge mapping, concept mapping, indexing, linking and repackaging of knowledge, tools, techniques, strategies and copyright issues in sharing this knowledge through knowledge base.
