For considerable time now, mass media sources have been used for advocating tobacco cessation. Responses from 1010 tobacco users were studied to determine impact of mass media campaigns on the tobacco using population and to identify challenges in effectual implementation of these media campaigns. To analyse the impact of anti tobacco media campaigns on tobacco users. 1010 self reported tobacco users were interviewed to determine if their knowledge, attitude and practices of tobacco consumption were influenced by anti tobacco media mass messages. 646 male and 364 females; between 16-75 years with mean age of 32.84 + 12.2 years participated in the study. 910 (90 %) of participants were unaware about the harmful effects of tobacco at the time of habit initiation, however, 890 (88.11%) participants said that they had gradually become aware of the disadvantages of tobacco use. Majority of participants credited media sources for their awareness but remarked that these campaigns were not helpful beyond creating awareness. A suboptimal outcome was noticed in dissuading tobacco use through media campaigns. Anti tobacco media campaigns have greatly contributed in creating awareness about harmful effects of tobacco; though they have made only a modest impact in prompting tobacco cessation.

This study examines whether the undergraduate accounting students in a Malaysian public university are experiencing stress and if yes, seeks to understand the reasons as to why the students experience stress during their course of study. Using a case study qualitative approach, this study found two main themes that relate to high stress level among the accounting students namely, academic related and non-academic related. Most of the students agreed that the main cause to their high stress level is attributed by their academic study. They agreed that overload of subjects and deadlines of submitting assignments and projects are the main causes for stress. In addition, irrelevant subjects and time spent to attend to academic events and activities have caused them to study last minute and consequently, put them under stress. The way they have to study for their degree is also very much different from the way they studied during their diploma. The students noted that much of their study during their diploma was based on memorizing compared to the degree level that requires application and critical thinking. Surprisingly, the students noted that accounting is not their preferred course. In relation to non-academic, the students experience stress as they have consistent thoughts of what their future may be, whether they would be able to obtain a job upon graduation and also on the current economy and political situation. The findings in this study sheds some lights to the university and the academics on the reasons to the students‟ high stress level and subsequently, provide some strategies to assist the students in overcoming their stress level and improve their performance.

Open green spaces are considered as an integral part of university campuses worldwide and the related studies reveal the significant impact of the green spaces on the quality of life in the campuses. Thus, scholars have also stressed the need of revitalization of outdoor green spaces in the Qatar university campus. This research investigates whether students‘ perception has an impact on usability of green spaces, precisely, at the Women‘s Engineering Building of Qatar University. It also considers the extent to which regional factors, such as climate and privacy, as per Islamic value, impact the perception of usability of open green spaces. A review of the literature was conducted for exploring the regional influence on perception and usability of green spaces. Site visits and field observation were conducted to understand the spatial nature of the green spaces in terms of privacy and the types of green space usage in the surrounding areas of the Women‘s Engineering Building. User‘s perception of green spaces and their impact on usability were collected through survey questions and questionnaires. In contrast to the views of the scholars, significant difference between perception and usability of the green spaces along the year, the findings reveal that (1) a certain resistance to the usage of the green spaces occurs in summer; (2) there is no significant threat to the perception of privacy, which, in turn, has no impact on the usability of green spaces at Qatar University‘s Women‘s Engineering Building.

Azerbaijan (Atropatgan) is one of the main and ancient places of Iran where it has Aryan residents. In this paper, attempt is made to study the race and people living there from the perspective of anthropology and ethnology. In fact, it is based on this question that whether or not, the people resided in Atropatgan have an Aryan race as other Iranians. To find the answer, first we have considered the race of people in the Iranian Plateau based on appearance, color, hair, and skull regarding different zones, oldness and the presence of various nations as some factors making integrated races. Conducting the research based on field studies, we have considered the race of people in Atropatgan and measured their skulls. Moreover, we have done anthropological studies on items such as the color of skin and hair, head size, forehead, eyebrows and eyes in cities and villages of the eastern Azerbaijan. To do this, some measuring tools have been used like compasses to measure the head and skull-graduated compasses with a movable beam. Then, the researcher has compared racial characteristics in this area with other peoples of Iran. Thus, according to anthropological and ethnical criteria of people in Atropatgan, we came to this conclusion that they have the same race (i.e. Aryan) similar as other Iranians who are the reminders and grandchildren of Aryan and Parse Medes. Therefore, the opposite is completely rejected on the view of the racial characteristics and all documents accounts for their Aryan race.

The experiment was carried out at Bangladesh Rice Research Institute (BRRI), Regional Station, Comilla, Bangladesh to determine the seeding interval of most promising parental lines of hybrid rice during boro 2009-10 season. The seeding interval between A (Cytoplasmic genetic male sterile line) and R (Restorer line) lines were determined by growth duration difference (GDD), leaf number difference (LND) and effective accumulated temperature (EAT) method. Five A lines and 12 R lines were used in this experiment. In 5 A lines, the days to 50% flowering ranged from 120 to 135 days and in 12 R lines, it ranged from 127 to 139 days. The leaf number varied from 15.07 to 18.63 and from 17.05 to 19.89 in the A and R lines, respectively. Among the A line, the EAT ranged from 1069 to 12910C and 1174 to 13510C in R lines. The growth duration differences between A and R lines varied found from 1 to 19 days. Similarly, the leaf number differences between A and R lines were from 0 to 4.82. The seeding differences between A and R lines in terms of EAT were from 13.50 to 282.20C.

The impact of mining activities on environmental and human health has become a matter of serious concern. Human health and vegetation is affected by decline in the biological, physical, and chemical quality of the environment. On-site pollution in coal mines due to dust, gases, noise, and polluted water is receiving increasing attention because it is affecting coal miners’ health as well as those living in close proximity. Toxic pollutants released in vicinity by such processes include lead, nickel, chromium and cadmium. Focus of research was on the fate of toxic heavy metals in mining areas to evaluate and compare the heavy metal status in directly exposed persons (coal miners) of two different mining regions of Punjab (Pakistan). High significant difference was observed for cadmium, lead, chromium and nickel in nail and serum samples of coal miners. Comparison of metal concentration in biological samples of chakwal and soon valley area shows that soon valley coal mine area is more polluted than chakwal coal mine area.

Radicular cysts are one of the most common pathology of oral cavity that oral and maxillofacial surgeons come across in daily practice. It has different treatment options and an operating surgeon should be aware of them and tailor them for individual patients. Aim of this case was to successfully treat a large periapical lesion of maxilla. 44 year old patient came with a swelling of palate with associated pain and was planned for surgical management of the swelling following thorough investigations. Surgical management of the lesion included enucleation of lesion into to, followed by apicectomy and retrograde filling with Mineral Trioxide Aggregate. Periapical lesions being one of the common entity has to be treated meticulously by a good team approach and newer materials need to be evaluated to provide a cost effective treatment.

The urinary tract infection is one of the most common infections acquired in community and hospital. The emergence of the acquired resistance of bacteria to antibiotics remains an important issue relevant to antimicrobial strategies. The Purpose of this paper is to review the frequency of isolation and the evolution of the resistance to antibiotics of the tree strains of Escherichia coli causing community urinary tract infections. It is a retrospective study made in the laboratory of microbiology of the university hospital center HASSAN II of Fez, concerning germs isolated from 5287 positive Bacteriological examination of urine (BEU) collected between 2010 and 2016 and diagnosed in consulting externs. Enterobacteriaceae were responsible for 84 % of the community urinary tract infections. The women were more touched (sex ratio F/H = 1, 66). Escherichia coli dominated the epidemiological profile (62 %). The antibiotic resistance of the tree strains of E. coli isolated highlighted rates of resistance to amoxicillin (64 %), to ciprofloxacine (59 %), to association amoxicillin-acid clavulonic (46 %), to sulfamethoxazole-triméthropime (42 %), to gentamicine (25 %), and to amikacine (14 %). The number of tree strains of E.coli resistant to third generation cephalosporins by production of B-lactamases with widened spectre"ESBL -producing" was 258, that is an average frequency of 5.8 % of all the enterobacteriaceae isolated. No resistance to imipeneme was registered for the tree strains of E. coli isolated whitch means that the sensibility to imipeneme is of 100 %. All these results showed an increase of the multiresistance of Escherichia coli in community environment which could be due to the excessive use of antibiotics in the medical domain. A regular surveillance of the resistance to antibiotics is essential to define effective and appropriate therapeutic strategies, limiting the emergence and the scattering of the multiresistant tree strains.

The aim of this study is to propose a model for understanding consumer attitude towards online banking regard to recent demonetization in India.

This study proposed to discover the important of Compliance with Safety Behaviour (CSB) in the context of Manufacturing Industry in Perak. The outcomes from this study may be helpful for industrial practitioners to understand all the influencing factors to CSB. The present study also aims to investigate if there is any significant relationship between safety attitude, management support, and safety rules and procedures towards compliance safety behaviour in Perak Manufacturing Industry. This safety analysis will provide guidance for management on how to develop specific safety programs. In addition, some of the outcomes stated in the study could be appropriate to other countries which facing similar state of affairs. The CSB, Safety Attitude, Management Support, and Safety Rules and Procedures instrument were used in this study. This study examines the direct relationship between safety attitude, management support and safety rules and procedures on compliance safety behaviour. Quantitative approaches with descriptive analysis method and multi-stage sampling method have been used in this study. Where, cluster method was conducted follows with stratified and simple random sampling method. A total of 770 questionnaires distributed to the manufacturing workers in Perak who had agreed to participate in this study. However, out of it only 480 questionnaires were returned and about 383 questionnaires were used for further analysis. Results showed that safety attitude, management support and safety rules and procedures have positive significant relationship between compliance safety behaviour.

Nigeria’s federal system concentrates enormous political and economic powers in the centre. Thus, politics for the control of this very powerful centre have always been tense and often result to crises. This paper examines the political variables that accounted for power-shift, from the incumbent President Goodluck Jonathan of the Peoples’ Democratic Party to Mohammadu Buhari of the All Progressive Congress. The paper holds that Jonathan’s acceptance of defeat opens a new chapter in the political history of Nigeria, which invariably would translate to the consolidation of democracy in the country. As a mark of conclusion, the paper suggests the following palliatives: politicians should sustain the Goodluck Jonathan spirit of sportsmanship, demonetization of the polity and a redefinition of the nation’s federal system, to devolve more powers to the component parts.

Election through manifesto will ensure winning seat in general election. This research study determines respondent’s perception on appropriate manifesto design for the general election. Quantitative approach with questionnaire methods applied into Malacca State in targeting 100 respondents, where questionnaire are divided into two categories namely (1) respondent’s demographic profile, and (2) respondent’s perception on appropriate manifesto designed for general election. Result indicate majority are male with ages from 31 to 40 that working in private sector. Most of respondent studied until secondary level and having monthly income of RM 1501 to RM 2000. Respondents are likely to support registered political parties and vote for same party. At the same time, there are respondents that more preferred towards candidates, especially candidates that have confidence in making decision. Majority respondents receive all contesting candidate’s manifesto and understand every aspect that proposed in manifesto. Fortunately, manifesto becomes positive ‘attraction’ towards respondents in decision making. In other words, although majority respondents are preferred on candidate and party, however, they are more preferred to choose the manifesto that emphasizes on having a safer and a better life not only for themselves, but also for their children in the future generation. Therefore, election manifesto do influencing the respondents in chosen the candidate or party.

A 74 years old male patient presented with a two days history of dyspnea, orthopnea, pleuritic chest pain, hemoptysis, and fever after a history of fall from his bed with 2 fractured ribs two days ago. On physical examination his heart rate was 120 beats per minutes, temperature 40°C and blood pressure 110/60 mmHg. Arterial oxygen saturation was 96% on air. No heart murmur was noted but there was decreased air entry in right lower lobe of the lung. Chest X-ray showed 3rd and 5th rib fractures on the right side as well as lower lobe consolidation. ECG showed sinus tachycardia. The D-dimer level was > 2000ng/mL (normal level < 500 ng/mL). Subcutaneous enoxaparin 40mg (twice daily) was started immediately. Pulmonary CT angiography revealed right pulmonary embolism. Subcutaneous enoxaparin was continued for a couple of days with daily international normalised ratio (INR) check until D-dimer level was < 500 ng/mL

Manifesto is important tool in ensuring winning the seat in general election, while giving improvement and enhancing the quality of life in the country. Several categories are defined based on geographical perspective in manifesto, namely safety of our family, a better quality of life, gender equality and empowering youth, generate strong and sustainable growth, balanced development progress for bridging the gaps, increasing access to education and standard, and people’s threatened crime-disaster hazard. Manifesto successfully implemented will bring better life to citizen in the country.
