Surface epithelial tumors of the ovary account for approximately two-thirds of all ovarian neoplasms and their malignant forms represent about 90% of ovarian cancers. For years, efforts to identify reliable prognostic factors have focused on molecular markers; large number of them has been investigated to date, usually by immunohistochemistry. Mutation of the p53 gene has been reported in a variety of human malignant tumors and it has been claimed to be a marker of poor prognosis. Aim of the study is to assess the immunoexpression of p53 and Ki 67 in surface epithelial tumors of the ovary and to evaluate their correlation with the clinicopathological parameters. There were 60 cases of surface epithelial tumors encountered over the period of 7 years from 2007 to 2014 in addition to10 samples of nonneoplastic ovarian tissues were included as a control. The samples were collected from Hawler Maternity Teaching Hospital. Formalin fixed, paraffin-embedded specimens were studied and sections were prepared for immunohistochemical staining for both p53 and Ki 67 markers. Ethical consent has been obtained from Hawler Medical University. Data were analyzed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS, version 19). High immunoexpression of p53 and Ki 67 were seen in patients with ovarian tumor aged more than 40 years. Statically highly significant correlation was found in the immunoexpression of both p53 and Ki 67 marker between benign, borderline and malignant surface epithelial tumors ( P value < 0.05); while no significant correlation was found between their expression in relation to tumor grade and stage in epithelial ovarian cancer. Maximal immunoexpression of p53 and Ki-67 immunohistochemical markers was seen in epithelial ovarian cancer, this emphasizes their important carcinogenic role in surface epithelial tumor of the ovary. Their over expressions are not correlated with tumor grade and stage.

Dengue infection is a serious global public health problem, and the dengue viruses are widely distributed throughout the tropical and subtropical areas of the world. In the Indian subcontinent, the epidemiology of dengue fever has been very complex. High prevalence rate in our region particularly in pre-monsoon and monsoon season is alarming and necessitates early and accurate diagnosis of dengue virus infection to prevent its complications and further morbidity. Now-a-days detection by rapid tests offers an even faster route to a presumptive dengue diagnosis. Hence, this study aims to assess the agreement between the rapid immune-chromatographic card test (RICT) for dengue and antibody capture ELISA, the latter being used as gold standard. A prospective study was conducted from July to November 2014 and July to November 2015 in a secondary care hospital. Probable dengue cases were diagnosed as per the WHO criteria and RICT and ELISA were conducted on the same serum samples for the detection of NS1 antigen and IgM & IgG antibodies. The results were analyzed. The sensitivities of RICT for NS1antigen and IgM & IgG antibodies were 100%, 89.6% and 81.3%, respectively and all showed 100% specificity. In the present study, the accuracy parameters were comparable with ELISA. Also, RICT met the WHO ASSURED criteria, hence this study recommends introduction of RICT in all levels of health care system for an early and accurate diagnosis and confirmation of the clinical suspicion of dengue.

Performance of women owned microenterprises is a function of many factors including, but not limited, size of capital, access to credit, demographic factors and also a number of business characteristics. However, the aim of this paper is to show how the performance of those microenterprises related to selected business and individual owners‟ characteristics in Tanzania. The paper relied on data collected from 400 women owners of microenterprises selected randomly from three major cities including 200 from Dar es Salaam, 100 from Mwanza and other 100 from Arusha. Business performance was measures using three indicators namely sales revenue, net profit and business net worth. Findings revealed that business net worth differed significantly across those three types of businesses. The findings revealed that sales of businesses operating in the city centres (in shops) and of those businesses operating around the industrial areas were significantly higher than those of businesses operating at home, in markets, on the road sides and of the mobile businesses. Also, it was revealed that microenterprises‟ owners with higher level of formal training performed better than those with little or without formal training. Furthermore, the findings showed that net profit and net worth of manufacturing enterprises were higher than for retain and service businesses. The study made the following recommendations. First, Local Government Authorities should designate spaces in towns where women owners of microenterprises can operate their business. Second, Regional Trade Offices should design short training programs that can equip women owners of microenterprises with simple but comprehensive understanding of the dynamics of their businesses.

A comparative analysis of head-loss equations under EPANET computer program and Hardy Cross iterative method was carried out in this project. A single period analysis was performed on a three-loop network in EPANET’s work space. Also, the network was solved with the Hardy Cross method, applying a single loop adjustment algorithm. The frictional head-losses in each of the methods were computed using the Darcy Weisbach and Hazen Williams headloss equations. The convergence of the flow rate corrections in each of the cases was evaluated and compared. Results of the analysis showed that the flow rate corrections converged at the 4th and 14th iteration for the two head-loss formulae in EPANET and Hardy Cross method respectively. The results were subjected to t-test on 5% level of significance, and it showed that there is no significant difference in the use of either of the head-loss equations for computations in each of the methods. Thus, any one of the head-loss equations can be used for effective analysis of pipe networks.

This paper focuses on comparative analysis of fuzzy entropic economic order quantity model in presence of flexible ordering cost in finite planning horizon. The objective of this fuzzy model is to optimize the net profit so as to determine the entropic order quantity, the number of replenishment cycle and flexible ordering cost. After testing optimality and concavity of the net profit function it is compared with other different models through suitable numerical examples which show that an appropriate optimal fuzzy entropic paradigm may benefit the manufacturer. Hence, this paper shows a numerical example which elucidates the impact of entropy, flexible ordering cost and fuzzy. Finally, sensitivity analyses and ANOVA testing of the present model are presented to validate the effectiveness and sensitivity of the different parameters with respect to the fuzzy net profit of the proposed new fuzzy model. The proposed mathematical model has demonstrated how this fuzzy approach to decision making can achieve a global optimum and outperform the traditional models.

Type 2 diabetes mellitus is associated with increased metabolic processes and oxidative stress. The trace elements are important co-factors in these events. Thus this study was conducted to compare serum levels of lipid profile, Zinc and HbA1c between type 2 diabetic patients and normal controls. The study was designed to find out the relation between lipid profile levels to severity and complication of diabetes mellitus. Degree of lipid profile with antioxidants and blood glucose in Sudanese with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Total 400 human subjects, out of which100 healthy individuals of age group (years) were taken as control and 300 diabetic subjects of age group (years) were taken as cases. There was significant increase in the lipid profile except HDL cholesterol, which is decreased, also significant decrease in trace elements chromium and Zinc. Impaired metabolism of these minerals may have a contributory role in the progression of DM and later development of complications

The occurrence of monoclonal gammopathy of undeterminate significance (MGUS) in an autoimmune disease such as systemic lupus is not common but it is not as rare as the occurrence of a malignant disease such as Multiple myeloma. The complexity of this association lies in the challenges of monitoring MGUS’s patients who are likely to progress towards malignant hemopathy. Some risk factors for this progression have been described (rate of monoclonal compound, paraprotein isotype, medullary plasmacytosis or even light chains). However, none of these factors taken independently allows us to correctly categorize patients. Scores combining several of these factors have been proposed to define groups of patients with different evolving risks. The aim of this work is to report this association (systemic lupus and MGUS) in a 52 year old woman, in order to alert the clinicians about this eventuality when monitoring their lupus patients.
