The study was retrospective and cross-sectional study where hospital records were accessed to establish patient-nurse ratio in relation to deliveries conducted monthly between 2011 and 2015 to establish staff workload. 167 nurses were engaged with the aim of determining psychosocial risk factors, prevalence and effects on maternal care outcomes at selected level 4 and 5 private and government health facilities in Mombasa County through a modified Copenhagen Psychosocial questionnaire. Cluster sampling was used to pick hospitals on the basis of levels; stratified sampling to identify the respondents; and systematic sampling to determine every Kth staff involved in the study. Data analysis was done using SPSS package, whose findings indicate that patient/nurse ratio was higher in Government Hospitals compared to private hospitals accounting for approximately 1:4 and 1:3 respectively. Generally, majority of the respondents had a positive perception about their work environment despite 66.9% perceiving to a large extent that their work was emotionally demanding, 80.9% their work exposed them to undue pressure/demands from their patients and relatives and only 58.6% felt somewhat or to a small extent motivated and involved. Due to this perception about current work environment, 70% of the respondents considered looking for work elsewhere with only 22.9% willing to remain working in their respective work places. Further analysis indicated that work environment influenced by 65.8% the decision to change jobs due to lack of motivation and failure to involve them in decision making. This perception, however, differed across private and GoK hospitals, male and female, and across the different age brackets.

The present article described the design technique of hardware electronic circuit based on modified Rossler equations. The dynamical behaviour of the proposed system has been studied by computer simulation and in electronic experiment. The results of periodic and chaotic behaviour of the hardware circuit are reported. Next the synchronization between two such electronic circuits is experimentally verified and a secure scheme of communication is described using chaos masking technique. The hardware experimental results are incorporated in this article to support the design algorithm.

Realism depicts subjects related to secular, empirical rules and it begins from the place where truth can be discovered by the individual through the senses. But the inner thought of human mind windows through the vision of fantasy and finds exuberance.

Nanotechnology, involving the development of nanoscaled pharmaceutical delivery devices. The micelles, liposomes, solid lipid nanoparticles, polymeric nanoparticles, vesicles, Nanogel, nanocrystals, dendrimers, nanotubes and have been used as strategies to deliver conventional pharmaceuticals or substances such as peptides, recombinant proteins, vaccines and nucleotides. Nanocarriers and other colloidal pharmaceutical delivery systems modify many physicochemical properties, thus resulting in changes in the body distribution and other pharmacological processes. These changes can lead to pharmaceutical delivery at specific sites and reduce side effects. Therefore, Nanocarriers can improve the therapeutic efficiency, being excellent carriers for biological molecules, including enzymes, recombinant proteins and nucleic acid. This review discusses different pharmaceutical carrier systems, and their potential and limitations in the field of pharmaceutical technology. Products with these technologies which have been approved by the FDA in different clinical phases and which are on the market will be also discussed.

In this paper, a new algorithm for noise suppression schemes is applied to specific practical problem mainly the suppression of Binary phase-shift keying (BPSK) level of the modulated signal. This is a practical situation of modulation which is used in different transceivers schemes such as in Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB) or other types of modulation techniques with standard microwave systems. The algorithm is well suited for a modular software radio concept, which we believe, will be more accepted in the future of wireless communication. Further modifications of the scheme necessary for these applications are described, and the results are presented to illustrate performance improvements. A general interpretation of this technique based on multiplying the transmitted data vectors by a generated amplitude matrix (AM) in the transmitter side, and the inverse of amplitude matrix (IAM) in the receiver side algorithm are introduced and discussed. The suggested scheme results are compared with the conventional modem through using BPSK type of modulation. Different gains are obtained from the proposed model relevant with the conventional system in AWGN and flat fading channel, according to the variation of the adjusted parameters.

The aim of this paper is to evaluate current regulatory guidelines for clinical research, drug development and the evolution and reforms in current and evolving practices in the United States, and Canada, with a detailed focus on India’s regulatory reforms and growing market. The United States is the largest pharmaceutical market, and the epicenter of clinical trials and research. Canada is the world’s second largest center of clinical trials and has pioneered many discoveries in diabetes care. India is gaining ground in clinical research with strengths in research, large drug manufacturing capabilities, world class hospital and medical facilities and infrastructure. The proficiencies of researchers in English, good clinical skills, a large population and prevalence of most disease types in India’s are also reasons for its position in clinical research and a favorable destination. India’s regulators have undertaken reforms of regulatory requirements to improve processes and ensure consistency with international standards. The over reliance by the Indian pharmaceutical industry on generics in sustainability and future growth of the industry may be dampened as the inevitable crowded space by international competitors and other manufacturers will likely cause ceding of some market share. Utilizing the immense talents in new drug development may provide new areas of economic opportunities. The promise for developing innovative and next generational products and marketing are immense. Continued investment in quality, discovery, achieving parity with international regulatory standards will expectedly fulfill great expectations and the inarguable tremendous potential India holds. The regulatory affairs and drug development discussion in India is further related to Type 2 Diabetes in India, as the incidence of Type 2 Diabetes is escalating exponentially worldwide and needs urgent therapeutic and management solutions.

Freeze-drying has been developed as a good technique to improve the solubility, dissolution and stability of microparticle. The poor stability and dissolution in an aqueous medium of these systems forms a real barrier against the pharmaceutical use of microparticle and microparticle. This reviews paper suggest about the freeze-drying microparticle and microparticle. It discusses the most important parameters that influence the success of freeze-drying of these fragile systems, and provides an overview of microparticle freeze-drying process and formulation strategies with a focus on the impact of formulation of different particles (nanoparticles and microparticle) and crystals stability.

The conflicts in Somalia seem to be intractable. Despite the many peace processes, it has not been resolved. Somalia had no effective government since 1991. A transitional government backed by Ethiopian troops threw out Islamists from the capital, Mogadishu, in December 2006, but since then Islamist insurgents have carried out almost daily attacks. The effects of these conflicts have been evident with about 20,000 people fleeing fighting in Mogadishu each month. If this trend continues, the government of Somalia will keep performing poorly due to poor conflict management styles they are employing. This study investigated the Roles of governance on conflict management in Mogadishu, Somalia. The study was guided by the following specific objectives that is, accountability affects on conflict management, adherence to rule of law and adherence to code of ethics in conflict management in Mogadishu. This study took descriptive research design. The target population of this study was 300 management staff in Mogadishu administration where a sample size of 60 managers was chosen. 100% of the respondents responded, this implies that all of the respondents managed to respond to the researcher. Most of the respondents 55% were male. Few respondents were female 45%. This implies that the majority of the respondents were men due to societal beliefs that they are more hardworking than women and thus capable in governance issues on conflict management. The study found out that there is significant relationship between governance and conflict management in Mogadishu was accepted. The study also revealed that the adjusted R2 is .453. This implies that there is significant relationship between the governance and conflict management in Mogadishu was accepted meaning there is a relationship. The study concludes that the availability of information is critical to good governance. Access to information and the promotion of procedural rights provide an enabling framework where accountability and improved delivery could enhance institutional changes.

Cellulase is any of the several enzymes produced chiefly by fungi, bacteria and protozoan that catalyze cellulolytic materials. The aim of the study was chiefly to screen cellulolytic bacteria using different staining reagents. Soil samples were collected from different sites in and outside of Sokoto State University. Cellulase producing bacteria were screened individually by transferring pure cultures of bacteria isolates in CMC agar plates and incubated for 48 hours,. CMC agar plates were flooded with 1 % Congo red and allowed to stand for 15min. at room temperature. One molar NaCl was thoroughly used for counterstaining the plates, and the plates were observed for clear zones around colonies. The same procedure was repeated when CMC plates were flooded with Iodine, Safranin, Crystal violet and lactophenol cotton blue. The result revealed the colonial characterization such as shape, color, size, elevation, and gram reactions were determined for each of the isolates. A Total of 12 isolates were obtained from which 8 showed cellulolytic activities when screened using Congo red on carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), agar plates most of them were gram negative rods..The isolates labeled KS1, KS2, KS3, KS4, KS6, and KS7 produced clearance zones when stained with crystal violet, the isolate labeled KS2. KS3, KS4, and KS8 produced clearance zones when stained with lactophenol cotton blue, the isolates KS4, KS6, KS7 and KS8 produced clear zone when stained with iodine while Safranin produced no clear zones when used to stain the CMC agar plates The study revealed that other staining reagents could be used to screen cellulolytic bacteria and this reagents are more readily available.
