Intraventricular neoplasms of the central nervous system are rare and arise from periventricular structures such as the walls of the ventricular system, the septum pellucidum, and the choroid plexus. Many tumour types arise from, or can bulge into the ventricular system, although there are certain lesions that are relatively restricted to ventricles. A number of factors assist in defining the differential diagnosis, both radiological and clinical, including where the lesion is positioned within the ventricle as well as age and any associated conditions. A total of 30 cases of primary intraventricular tumors were studied. Study included both the left over squash and regular tumor tissue specimen. Duration of the study was 2 years. In this study, the overall incidence of the intraventricular tumors was 5.47 %, 30 cases among the total 548 intracranial lesions. Out of the 30 cases, 19 were males and 11 were females. Most of the cases were seen in the age group of 11 to 20 years and least tumors were seen in the age group 51 to 70 years. Intraventricular tumors are rare tumors and they closely mimic various other tumors of the CNS on imaging. Squash cytology and Histopathological examination (HPE) usually confirms the diagnosis.

The seeming non autonomy of work in the studied organization necessitated this study. The study examined the type of relationship between job enrichment and employee commitment in selected brewing firms in Anambra State. A survey research design was adopted. A sample of 156 respondents was selected from the population size of 543 using Taro Yamani Formula. A 12-item questionnaire with close ended questions was used for data collection. Pearson Product Moment Correlation Coefficient was used for data analysis. Finding showed that there is a significant positive relationship between job autonomy and affective commitment among the employees in the selected brewing firms. It was also found that when the jobs of the employees are enriched, their commitment level would increase positively and that would ultimately increases their productivity level in the organization. The study recommended that organizations should focus on giving employees a considerable level of job autonomy, this would enable them to utilize their skills and ability to complete assigned tasks and take responsibility for their actions, as well as maintaining strong loyalty and commitment level to the organization.

It happens many times that the dental surgeon faces a tricky situation when fracture of the root tip occurs during tooth extraction. It is frequently a time consuming and a stressful situation for the patient as well as to the surgeon when attempting removal of these root apices . Though many techniques have been described in the literature, they have some disadvantages. The present article describes a case series of two reports in which we have done atraumatic removal of the broken root tips with the help of endodontic files.

Institutions of higher learning in Kenya are faced with a multiplicity of challenges due to policy shifts that have led to massification of education. The structural adjustment programmes (SAPS) together with other neoliberal policies introduced by Britton wood institutions has had major implications for the education sector in Kenya. The greatest effect has been on the human resource working in institutions of higher learning that have been faced by various challenges including career stagnation. These has led to a pool of demotivated staff which has a spiral effect on the quality of service provision thus leading to frequent and persistent strikes by both the staff and the students. All these are linked to organizational politics and specifically its subset the politics of information. Therefore, the purpose of the study is to examine the influence of information power on career development among administrative staff in public universities: a case of University of Eldoret (UOE) in Eldoret, Kenya. The specific objective of the study was to determine the influence of Information power on career development among administrative staff in public universities .The research design employed was a case study to enhance collection of extensive and detailed information on the research objective. The target population comprised of 134 permanent administrative employees of University of Eldoret. This also formed the sample size since the population was not big enough the researcher employed a census technique in the selection of respondents for the study. However only 130 respondents were able to fill their questionnaires and return. Closed ended questionnaires with the aid of likert scales were employed as the data collection instrument for the study. Data was analysed with the aid of both descriptive and inferential statistics specifically correlation to test the effect of information power on career development. This data was then presented using tables, charts and graphs to enhance analysis of data. This study is of great significance to policy makers, Human resource practitioners in universities, as well as the University management who are able to make clear and effective policies on the issue of information power and career development.

Recent developments in computer and web technology have prompted new revolutionary ways of using Information Technology in English language teaching. While there is evidence of the usefulness of ICT in the Moroccan language classroom, a wide range of factors and challenges still inhibit the widespread introduction and use of the new technologies as basic tools of teaching, and deter EFL teachers from adopting them to maximize targeted learning outcomes. The findings from the research suggest that there is no clear link between independent variables (teachers‟ socio-demographic and substantive variables) and the frequency of ICT use in the Moroccan English language classroom. However, and though they are not statistically significant, gender and computer literacy show some effect.

The purpose of this paper is to explore the best practice of small medium enterprises (SMEs) from Japan. Japan has been proven to be successful lesson to be followed by Malaysia. Japan’s SMEs began after World War II in 1945. Thus, it has shown that the development process has intricacies and can be studied by Malaysian SMEs, which began in the 1970s due to the revolution of new economic policies. This paper provides the understanding of the development of SMEs between Japan and Malaysia. Further, we identify a gap between SMEs in Malaysia and SMEs in Japan as best practice. The challenges SMEs face might be different in their respective countries—it might be from the perspective of cultural aspects, market environments, and more, but with the initiative measures, pro and cons of both countries’ SMEs can enhance their duty as the backbone of a country’s economy.

This study intends to describe the global knowledge of senior high school students at Cilegon City and Serang City. This study aimed to describe the level of global knowledge high school students at Cilegon and Serang City, and compare the level of global knowledge among high school students at Cilegon City with high school students at Serang City by using „t‟ test for large sample group. The authors performed the statistical analysis in order to find a comparison of global knowledge among senior high school students in the study site by using 't' test for large sample group. With 208 degrees of freedom, and at the trustworthiness level of 95%, it obtained the value of t table about 1.67. The t value of Comparison on Global Knowledge between senior high school student at Cilegon City and senior high school students at Serang City of 0.216 is smaller than t table value of 1.67. According to this condition, there is no significant difference between Global Knowledge of senior high school students at Cilegon City with senior high school students at Serang City. However, in a simple, based on the difference of the average score (mean) between the two groups of respondents, in fact it can be seen that there is the differentiation of Global Knowledge between senior high school students at Cilegon City with senior high school students at Serang City. Actually, the mean score of Y group (senior high school students at Serang City) is slightly larger than the mean score of X group (senior high school students at Cilegon City). The meaning of Global Knowledge of senior high school students at Serang City is slightly better than Global Knowledge of senior high school students at Cilegon City. Global Insight senior high school students in the city of Cilegon and Serang did not show a significant difference. This happens because of an environmental socio-cultural students in the two cities have in common as autonomous cities, with characteristic primary as a center of heavy industry and service business in the city of Cilegon, as well as industrial center services, central government activities city, county, and also the province of Banten.

This study presents treatment of domestic wastewater collected from the Harmony Lodge Ifite Awka, Anambra state using laboratory scale constructed wetland vegetated with Cyperus esculentus(tiger nut)plant as biofilter.to determine the removal of pollutants. The study was conducted from August 19th 2016 to September 2016, at Nnamdi Azikiwe University laboratory, Awka. Result of laboratory analysis on samples of wastewater collected showed reduction in pollutant of nitrate 50%, phosphorus 42%, ammonia 36%, COD 59%, BOD 70%, pH range was changed from 6.59 to7.15. Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) was used to analyse data obtained. Differences in parameter concentration between the influent and effluent parameters and also between effluents for three detension periods were considered significant at 5% level of significance (i.e p . The concentration of these parameters decreased significantly as a result of the treatment. This shows that the cyperus plant is effective in pollutant removal from domestic wastewater.

This study was geared towards appraising the curriculum status of integrated Social Studies in Kenyan primary schools in the wake of a lot of fluid content which keeps on changing day in day out. To deal with the quick changes there’s need to use Curriculum foundations sieves to allow only concrete content in the integrated Social Studies Curriculum. 250 teachers were sampled using stratified simple random sampling for teachers and purposive sampling for Tutors from the two Primary School Teacher Training College in Nakuru Sub County, the chair-persons of the Head teachers of the five zones of Nakuru Sub-County and the Quality Assurance and Standards Officers. Research Instruments were questionnaire and semi-structured interview guide. This research study adopted a mixed research methods approach. Both descriptive and inferential statistics were applied in the analysis of data. Findings show that the content of integrated Social Studies (SST) is beneficial to learners, it contributes to the attainment of the national goals of education, it has been changing very quickly within short span of time hence need to elongate time before next revision is done, the Social Studies teachers need to be taken for refresher courses to improve their teaching skills, there’s relationship among topics taught from one class and the next and that integrated Social Studies curriculum has integrated emerging issues. The recommendation is that the government through Kenya Institute of Curriculum Development (KICD) should take time before reviewing Social Studies curriculum.

Primary plasma cell leukemia: a rare type of leukemia and plasma cell proliferation Plasma cell leukemia is defined by the presence of more than 20% plasma cells in the peripheral blood or a number of circulating plasma cells greater than 2G/L. The primary form: observed may be de novo, and may reveal a multiple myeloma until then unknown. This has similarities with multiple myeloma and has some special particularities that authors will expose in the light of a case diagnosed in the laboratory hematology Hassan II university Hospital of Fez.

Medullary aplasia (MA) is a rare and severe affection. It is much rarer in children. The etiologies are multiple: constitutional, acquired, and idiopathic. In order to evaluate the epidemiological, clinical and biological aspects of bone marrow aplasia in a pediatric population, we carried out a retrospective study of 9 cases collected in the hematology department in collaboration with the department of anatomy pathology of the Hassan II CHU in Fez over a four-year period from January 2013 to December 2016. Age ranged between 1 and 14 years, with a sex ratio of 3.5. The anemic, hemorrhagic and infectious syndrome was noted respectively in: 9, 7, and 6 cases. The hemoglobin varied between 3.3 and 7.3 g/dl with an average of 5 g/dl, anemia is normochrome normocytic argenerative in all our patients. Neutropenia was found in 100% of patients, and all patients had thrombocytopenia with platelet counts ranging from 500 to 105000/mm3. The BOM-coupled myelogram was performed in all patients, confirming the diagnosis of AM. For the etiologies, Fanconi Anemia was evoked in 4 cases and idiopathic in 5 patients.

Macrophage activation syndrome is a rare but a potentially fatal disease. This pathology is defined not only by clinical criteria (fever, splenomegaly), but also by biological criteria (bi or pancytopenia, hypofibrinogenemia, hypertriglyceridemia, hyperferritinemia) and cyto histological ones (hemophagocytosis in the bone marrow, in the spleen or in the peripheral lymph nodes). It may be primary or more often reactive to an infectious or a malignant pathology, an immune deficiency, or an autoimmune systemic disease. Its occurrence imposes a quite exhaustive etiological assessment, as the associated diseases are multiple. We report in this work the case of a patient in whom a macrophage activation syndrome secondary to a bacteraemia was diagnosed in the laboratory of Hematology of the Hassan II University Hospital -Fez, and whose evolution was marked by a good response to antibiotic therapy with a regression of clinical symptoms and an improvement of the biological parameters. However, the prognosis for macrophage activation syndrome remains severe with about 50% mortality in the literature. It is therefore considered as a serious condition, with a severe prognosis and a treatment that is still poorly codified.

The aim of this study was to estimate the prevalence and risk factors for different neurological disorders. We also aimed to explore the effect of different socio-demographic variables in neurological disorders. Methods: A prospective cross-sectional study was carried out at Neurology Outpatient Clinic of United Hospital Ltd., Bangladesh, from December 2015 to March 2016 to explore the experiences of patients with neurological disorders. A separate questionnaire was used to collate the information. All registered patients medical records were reviewed. Microsoft Office Excel 2007 software package was used for statistical analysis. Data of 438 patients were collected and analyzed of which 239 (54.57 %) were females and 199 (45.43 %) were males. This study showed a high prevalence of epilepsy, stroke and migraine and an overall low prevalence of Parkinsonism, Alzheimer’s and dementia. The values were 121, 97, 52, 43, 23 and 102 for epilepsy, stroke, Alzheimer’s, Dementia, Parkinson’s and Migraine accordingly. Most of the patients (79.95%) were unmarried in our observational study. Only 20.06% were married. 41.03% and 26.18% patients were alcoholic and smoker respectively. Highest percentage of the patients (27.27 %) belonged to the age group 61 - 70 years, 21.23% to the age group 41 - 50 years and 17.05 % to the age group 51 – 60 years. Moreover, 42.98% of the patients were from community colony. The findings from the present study supported some previ¬ous research studies showing that women are more adversely affected by different neurological disorders than men. Therefore, more epidemiological studies need to be conducted to look into the changing pattern of neurological disorders using a uniform methodology.
