Cholera, a diarrheal disease caused by the bacterium Vibrio cholerae, transmitted through fecal contamination of water or food remains an ever-present risk in many countries, especially where supply, sanitation, safety, and hygiene are inadequate. A cholera outbreak was reported Bauchi State, North-eastern Nigeria. We investigated to determine extent assess factors associated with outbreak.We conducted descriptive analysis suspected cases fatality rate (CFR), attack (AR), trends/patterns...
Abstract Dermatomyositis (DM) is a rare idiopathic inflammatory myopathy with hallmark skin manifestations and, in some cases, interstitial lung disease (ILD). This case report presents 35-year-old male chronic cough and constitutional symptoms, initially resembling pulmonary tuberculosis (TB). As the condition progressed, patient developed proximal muscle weakness, arthralgia, Gottron’s papules holster sign. Further testing revealed positive antinuclear antibodies, anti-Mi-2, anti-Jo-1...
BackgroundSchistosomiasis and Lymphatic Filariasis (LF) are endemic in Ghana. These diseases cause significant morbidity disability which can adversely affect the participation of affected persons their families economic activities, resulting reduced output at macrolevel. This study, therefore aims to provide first empirical evidence effects these on macrolevel Ghana.MethodsThe study uses time series data Ghana collected from secondary sources over period, 1990–2019. Gross Domestic Product...
Neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) such as leprosy, lymphatic filariasis (LF), schistosomiasis and onchocerciasis are endemic in several African countries. These can lead to severe pain permanent disability, which negatively affect the economic productivity of affected person(s), hence resulting into low performance at macrolevel. Nonetheless, empirical evidence effects these NTDs on macrolevel is sparse. This study therefore investigates above-mentioned Africa.
Tracking the ratio of two normal variables (RTNV) is crucial in ensuring quality regarding some manufacturing processes. In this study, run sum and variable sampling interval procedures are combined to develop a more effective scheme for controlling RTNV A comparison with existing basic schemes, as per average time signal criterion, shows that new chart substantially surpasses its counterparts. An example application using factual data given showcase operation practice.
Purpose Bipolar and depression disorders are some of the most common mental health affecting millions people in low-and middle-income countries, including those Africa. These therefore major contributors to burden diseases disability. While an enhancement income is seen as a approach towards reducing these disorders, empirical evidence support this view African context lacking. This study aims examine effect per capita growth on bipolar across countries. Design/methodology/approach The uses...
We determined the prevalence, incidence, and risk factors for epilepsy in Nigeria.We conducted a door-to-door survey to identify cases of 3 regions. estimated age-standardized prevalence adjusted nonresponse sensitivity 1-year retrospective incidence active epilepsy. To assess potential factors, we case-control study by collecting sociodemographic factor data. odds ratios using logistic regression analysis corresponding population attributable fractions (PAFs).We screened 42,427 persons (age...
A method for simulating future rainfall events using improved k-nearest neighbors algorithm (k-NN) used in this study. simulation day was selected the month of August. The steps and resampling with historical data applied to simulate Kaduna River catchment as a basis understanding about characteristics basin. Simulated datasets months April, May, June, July, August, September, October yielded nearly exact reproduction data. In performance, statistical such mean, standard deviation, variance,...
Photovoltaic systems (PV) are becoming more popular as a way to make electricity because they offer so many benefits, such free solar irradiation harvest and low maintenance costs. Moreover, the system is environmentally friendly it neither emits noxious gases nor generates environmental noise. Consequently, during operation of PV system, working environment all types pollution. Despite aforementioned advantages, photovoltaic system’s performance significantly impacted by fluctuation in...
Epidemiological estimates of substance use disorders (SUD) are critical for the planning evidence-informed intervention and services. In this study, 250 incarcerated individuals in Nigeria were interviewed with Mini International Neuropsychiatric Inventory (MINI) to diagnose SUD antisocial personality disorder (ASPD). Most participants males (97.6%), mean age was 35.4 (SD=13.5) years. Substance ASPD prevalent 57.6% 11.2% participants, respectively. Of those diagnosed SUD, 35.2% 22.4% had...
Abstract Camel mange is an extremely pruritic and contagious disease of camel caused by a small parasite Sarcoptes scabiei var cameli , It mostly affects the head, neck, flanks, inner side thighs inguinal region animal. transmitted direct or indirect contact, one most important parasitic diseases affecting camels. economically that hinders productivity health camel. Therefore, cross sectional study was conducted between March to September 2021 determine prevalence mites associated risk...
Aim: Listeria monocytogenes (L. monocytogenes) has been reported as the major pathogen that contributes to foodborne illness. This study was conducted determine prevalence and characterize isolated from ready eat vegetables local fermented milk (Nono) in Yola, Nigeria. Methods: A total of 162 samples cabbage, lettuce, salad were examined on PALCAM Brilliance Agar. Results: Distribution L. showed cabbage had highest 42.3% followed by lettuce with 26.9%. The least occurrence (11.5%) obtained...
In Ghana, malaria remains the number 1 reason for outpatient department visits, making it a major public health problem. Thus, there could be significant lost productivity days as result of morbidity and mortality, which negatively affect economic output at macrolevel. Nonetheless, is dearth empirical evidence effect on macroeconomic in Ghana. This study therefore aims to provide foremost regarding prevalence Ghana using time series design with data spanning period 1990 2019. Gross Domestic...
Statistical data shows that rice production increases every period along with the increase in demand. Harvested paddy must be dried immediately to avoid damage due microbial attack can live high moisture content. Therefore, main objective of drying is reduce content from harvest (23-27%) a safe for storage (14%). Currently, there are several dryers made as solution post-harvest handling grains such green beans, soybeans, grain and so on. One example this dryer Fluidized Bed Dryer. This tool...
Globally, millions of people suffer from road injuries, with Africa having the highest burden injury deaths. This public health problem has potential to reduce labor productivity and hence hamper economic growth, especially on African continent. study, best authors' knowledge, therefore seeks provide first empirical evidence interaction or combined effect injuries growth in countries.
Study’s Excerpt The extended cosine Burr XII (ECSBXII) distribution model developed within the cosine-G family is introduced. asymptotic properties of mean residual life (MRL) and extreme order statistics specific to ECSBXII are derived. Practical application MRL shown using simulation studies. Full Abstract In statistics, functions provide a powerful framework for understanding behavior or statistical procedures limits certain parameters. Also, in reliability, assumes critical role...
This is a case series of recurrent hypocalcemic tetany as the initial presentation in some cases hyperthyroidism. Literature review has revealed more reports hypercalcemia than hypocalcemia feature The recurrence 3 reported ceased following treatment aim this to alert clinicians fact that can be clinical It also highlights resilience managing endocrine patients resource-poor settings with aid high acumen and fewer-than-expected laboratory investigations. Further research needed investigate...
