Hypertension is a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Patients’ beliefs and knowledge about hypertension have a strong influence on compliance to treatment and control of the disease. Up to date, there is no previous data on hypertension health beliefs in Bahrain. Therefore, this research was conducted to study patients’ beliefs and explore the association between patients’ characteristics and their beliefs. Aim: To understand Bahraini patients’ beliefs about hypertension in primary health care in Bahrain. Objectives: To explore patients’ beliefs about hypertension in primary health care in Bahrain; to study the association between personal characteristics (demographic, socioeconomic and medical) and patients’ beliefs. Study design: Cross-sectional study. Settings: Data was collected from two primary care health centers in each health region in Kingdom of Bahrain using validated questionnaire. Participants 454 hypertensive adult Bahraini patients ≥18 years, who were attending primary care within 10 days period in February 2018 (1st – 14th February), were recruited. Pregnant women, patients with psychotic disorder or cognitive impairment, and patients who are unable to communicate were excluded. Data was analyzed qualitatively for themes using SPSS version 23.0. Results: Patients’ mean age was 58.2 ± 11.697 years with females constituting 58.4%. Based on the Health Beliefs Model, participants have strong beliefs regarding their susceptibility to the effects of hypertension, seriousness of its complications and the benefits of a proper and healthy management plan. On the other hand, they have weak beliefs in the efficacy of the barriers (i.e. alternative medicine and medication side effects) toward hypertension management. The most variables having the largest influence on patients’ beliefs were duration of having hypertension and existence of other chronic medical problems. Conclusion: The findings suggest that participants were fairly knowledgeable about hypertension. We concluded that patients’ perceptions are an important factor in hypertension care and should be deeply explored

The breast is the most frequent site of cancer among women in both developed and in developing countries [1]. Breast cancer is the most frequent cause of cancer death in women from less developed countries and second most frequent (after lung cancer) among women in developed countries [1]. It is increasing in incidence in the developing world due to increased life expectancy, increased urbanization and the adoption of western lifestyles [2]. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), “Early detection in order to improve breast cancer outcome and survival remains the cornerstone of breast cancer control” [2]. Breast cancer staging also takes into account cancer's grade; the presence of tumor markers, such as receptors for estrogen, progesterone and HER2; and proliferation factors.Standard screening for new and recurrent breast cancer involves clinical breast exam and breast imaging. Given the recognized differences in breast cancer incidence, subtypes, and prognosis among women , it is important to evaluate potential biomarkers in the landscape of breast cancer subtypes ranging from DCIS to triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) to determine if a simple blood test can enhance the diagnosis of this disease and knowing about stage of disease, and helping in proper treatment. In this review we tried to discuss role of genetic panels in breast cancer management

The revolving door policy has become a bottleneck for the Hotel Managers. Be it the lower level staff or the top management staff, they leave the organization once they are trained and groomed as per the hotel standards. This crisis leaves the hotel at catch 22 situations. They have no option other than to hire a new staff and train them. “The Bureau of Labor Statistics [1] estimates an annualized employee turnover rate of 73.8% in the hotel and motel industry. This figure is striking consider most HR experts agree a healthy turnover rate should actually be somewhere in the 10-15% range”. Considering the high rate of attrition, training a new staff as per the standard policies becomes a costlier challenge for Hotel Industry. There are various reasons behind turnover i.e. Job dissatisfaction, better career growth/opportunities etc. There are a variety of reasons why an employee would consider quitting his or her job within the hospitality industry. These have been identified and researched significantly in the past 60 years (Brown et al., 2015; Huselid, 1995; Kang et al., 2015; Mobley, 1982; Poulston, 2008; Smith and Watkins, 1978) [2]. Yet, organizations are continually trying to identify areas for improvement regarding turnover as turnover costs can be extremely expensive. In fact, they are sometimes considered the highest cost an organization has to endure (Tracey and Hinkin, 2008; Woods, 2002).

Background: Socioeconomic status (SES) and geographical proximity form dental care unit has been reported to be associated with lack of concern to dental health. Therefore, the present study was conducted to assess the relationship between SES and geographical factor affecting number of case reporting to the five different dental clinics across India. Materials and Methods: A probability sampling was done to select dental clinic among five major cities across the north India. After selecting the dental clinic a cross sectional study was conducted to assess the relationship between SES and geographical factor affecting number of case reporting to the selected dental clinic of major cities. All the subjects were evaluated and questioned regarding locality from where they arrived, there occupation and annual income to reach to the conclusion of their geographic location from clinic and socioeconomic status. This cross sectional study was carried for a period of six months. After collecting data from all five clinics unpaired t test was done to find out the significance of the study. Results: a total of urban classified patient in five clinics were 2672 whereas low socioeconomic and rural patients were 666. Comparison of mean Urban and Rural OPD frequencies per month over six months in various cities was made on the basis of unpaired t tests. The mean value for different cities between urban and rural population are as follow for Jaipur urban pt. were 43.17 and rural pt. 12.67. For Ahmadabad mean value for urban pt. 87 whereas rural pt. 21.67. For Nagpur and Pune mean value for urban pt. was 95.67 and 101.67 and for urban pt. 27.50 and 23.33. Lastly for Hyderabad mean value for urban pt. was 117.83 and rural pt. 25.83. Unpaired t test for all the five centres showed p value less than 0.001 concluding the difference among the group are highly significant. Conclusion: The dental health care needs are very high both in rural and urban areas in spite of basic facilities available in urban areas. This study demonstrates that the notion of access is a multi-dimensional concept, whose composition varies with location, according to the facility being considered and the health and socio-economic status of the individual concerned. There is an obvious disparity among the rural and urban patients mobilization for dental care needs. Lack of awareness, transport facilities or poor economic condition may provide resistance for rural patients to avail dental care facilities

Kinetics of biodiesel production from renewable raw material like soybean oil deodoriser distillate (SBODD) and
methanol (MeOH) in the presence of biocatalyst Novozyme 40013 (lipase from Candida antarctica) has been studied in
the present research investigation along with optimization of reaction parameters like molar ratio of alcohol to SBODD,
temperature and catalyst concentration. 5:1 molar ratios of alcohol to SBODD, 600C temperature with 5% concentration
of catalyst for 3 hrs of reaction duration are the optimum conditions identified which contributed 93.24% conversion.
Pseudo homogeneous kinetic model has been used to fit the experimental data and results have been analysed on the
basis of model data. Equilibrium constants (Kobs) have been evaluated through this kinetic model at different
temperatures and different molar ratios. By fitting the experimental data, the pre exponential factor and the activation
energy of the esterification reaction have been determined also. Kinetic analyses are in good agreement with
experimental results.

10.36348/sjbms.2019.v04i06.008
Despite the growing body of literature focused on open innovation concepts; crowdfunding, a new paradigm, has emerged an under-researched type of innovation. Literature reviews evidenced that though studies on outsourcing and crowdsourcing are published mostly in recent years, 2011-2015, a significant gap remains for crowdfunding innovation often enabled by the web. The paper focuses on a type of crowdfunding which keep the option of financial rewards, philanthropists and non-profit organizations (as crowd) are solving problems which solution seekers anticipate to be empirically provable, but the source of solutions is uncertain and addressing the challenge perceived to be of high-risk. There is a growing appeal to crowdfunding, but little is known about an effective donation/charity based model. Hence, the author proposes a model underpinned by stakeholder and systems theories for Islamic banks for social entrepreneurship development by which crowd fund might be of instrumental in the progression of poverty alleviation, increasing dynamism of Islamic economies, and removing unemployment in Muslim societies. The instrumentality of the proposed model can be examined empirically in future research

The durability of concrete constructions in aggressive media has been studied. We prepared samples of ordinary concrete
with different natural pozzolana content of beni-saf as a substitute for cement. The main objective of this experimental
work is to study the valorization of the natural pozzolana of beni-saf on the mechanical properties (compressive strength)
and the durability of concrete (corrosion) in the aggressive environment. Through experimental results obtained, we
conclude that beni-saf's natural pozzolana has a positive effect on mechanical properties and the effect is somewhat
acceptable for concrete durability especially in the long run.
