Seeds of Myrianthus arboreus P. Beauv were collected from from Didoko
forest, at 140 km from Abidjan (Côte d‟Ivoire). One part of seeds (about 1 kg) was
dried at sun (30-35°C) for a week (Dried Seeds, DS). A second part (1 kg), was
boiled in water (100°C) for 30min (Boiled Seeds, BS). Oils were extracted using
chloroform and methanol as solvent and the content in oil was determined by
gravimetry. Physicochemical caractéristiques were determined using the méthodes of
the American Oil Chemists Society. The total lipid contents of myrianthus arboreus
seeds were 45.82±2.16 and 46.02±0.49; respectively for DS and BS. Physicochemical
properties of these oils showed that acid values ; saponification and peroxide values
and the iodine indices were 1,94±0.1 and 3,00±0.17 mg KOH/g ; 136,68 ± 0.32 mg
KOH/g of oil and 148,36± 0.64 mg KOH/g of oil ; 5,49± 0.49 mEq/Kg and 5,6±0.10
mEq/Kg ; and 104,037±0.037 g I2/100g and 103.O42±0.042 g I2/100g respectively
for DSO and BSO. The colours of myrianthus arboreus seeds oils were yelloworange for DSO and pale yellow for BSO respectively. The quality and stability of
traditionally processed myrianthus arboreus seeds oil as affected by temperature were
evaluated by analyzing their physicochemical properties which included acid,
saponification, peroxide, and iodine indices.

Crop simulation models are used in predicting crop productivity under
various crop management options and changing climatic parameters that require
determination of genetic coefficient of a crop cultivar. Successful use of a crop model
depends on the accuracy of calibration and validation of different parameters. This
paper aimed to evaluate the DSSAT (v4.6) crop model in Bangladesh for wheat
production. Genetic co-efficient of four wheat cultivars (BARI Gom-25, 26, 27 & 28)
were determined through DSSAT model. Experimental data on irrigation and
nitrogen effect on wheat production was used for model calibration and date of
sowing effect for model validation. Model evaluation results showed closer
estimation of crop growth duration, grain and biomass yields. Percent error difference
in grain yield of wheat varieties (BARI Gom- 25, 26, 27 and 28) between simulated
and observed values were 10.98%, 8.70%, 10.79% and 8.94%, respectively.
Relationship between simulated and observed grain yields, and simulated and
observed crop duration both at calibration and validation process are strong having
higher R2 value. The model has been successfully calibrated and validated for wheat
growing in Bangladesh environment and can now it can be taken for further
applications in natural resources management and climate change impact studies.

The management of the cervical lymph nodes is an integral part of the overall treatment of the oral cavity malignancies. The indications and uses of the various types of neck dissections and pre and postoperative radiotherapy has been a subject of much debate. Based on the results of the present study and the literature available with us, we can conclude that, Dissemination of metastatic cancer to regional lymph nodes from primary sites in the upper aerodigestive tract occurs in a predictable and sequential pattern. For primary tumours in the oral cavity, the regional lymph nodes at the highest risk for early dissemination by metastatic cancer (first echelon nodes) are limited to levels 1,2 and 3, i.e., within the supraomohyoid triangle of neck. Skip metastasis to levels 4 and 5 in the absence of metastasis at levels 1,2 or 3 is very rare.

The purpose of the present work was to evaluate the proximate
composition, minerals content (Na, K, Ca, Fe, Mg, Cu, Zn, Mn), simultaneous
quantification of water soluble vitamins (like ascorbic acid, thiamine, riboflavin,
niacin, pantothenic acid, pyridoxine & folic acid) by HPLC of three different grasses
viz. Cynodon dactylon, Apluda mutica and Eleusin indica. The result showed the
highest calorific value of C. dactylon (124.031 ± 1.154 kcal/100g) which was also
found to contain highest amount of protein and carbohydrate. An appreciable quantity
of carbohydrate was estimated in the aerial parts of E. indica (17.762 ± 0.122%). E.
indica had the highest potassium content (2.207 ± 0.006 mg/g) and calcium content
(6.023 ± 0.002 mg/g). The sodium content ranged between 0.049 – 0.289 mg/g. The
aerial parts of E. indica (274.945 ± 0.085 mg/100g) contained a very good amount of
vitamin C. The water soluble B vitamin content in these plants under investigation
ranged between 0.009 to 12.133 mg/100gm. In conclusion, the results indicate that
these IAS can be utilized as food supplement.

Breast feeding with timely started complementary feeding is the best way of infant feeding. It is necessary for infant’s overall development, better growth, fulfilling nutritional requirement and it is most vital for reducing infant mortality. Objective of our study was to assess the knowledge, attitude and practice of complementary feeding among mothers in a tertiary Care Centre of Central India. A cross sectional study was done about knowledge of mothers with children below 2 year of age with help of pretested self-designed questionnaire based interview who are attending paediatrics OPD and IPD. In our study most of mothers did not know correct time of starting complementary feeding, they also did not know what food can be given, frequency and amount of complementary feed. In our study knowledge, attitude as well as practise towards complementary feeding was lacking hence health education to mother and family members required about correct feeding in early years of life.

The impact of culture environment was assessed for the production of
GIFT tilapia over high stocking densities at 20 fish/m2 and 30 fish/m2 in ponds and
300 fish/ m3 and 400 fish /m3 in cages in the same ponds to ensuring maximum
utilization of the pond resources. After 120 days culture period the highest net yield
of 3.72 kg/ m2 was obtained from ponds which were stocked with 20 fish / m2 and fed
with homemade feed consisted of 60% wheat bran + 30% mustard oil cake +10%
flour, while the highest net yield of 8.55 kg / m3 was obtained from cages stocked
with 300 fish / m3 fed with the same feed from the same cultural environment. The
lowest net yields of 2.34 kg/ m2 and 8.48 kg/ m3 were recorded from fish stocked at
30 fish/ m2 and 400 fish / m3 fed with the same feed from ponds and cages
respectively. With the high survival rate the growth and yield of tilapia fish were
found to be significantly influenced (p <0.05) by the cultural environment, stocking
density and their interactions. Therefore the culture environment had a greater exerted
effect on the production than the stocking densities.

certification competency exam at Ministry of Communication and Informatics
Indonesia. The proposal is based on the concept of college and career readiness in
Boston which was used to assess the factors of careers after students taking
competency exam for framing the tracing study of certification competency exam in
Ministry of Communication and Informatics Indonesia. Majority respondents use the
certificate to apply for job vacancy. This is good result, means that the objective of
Ministry of Communication and Information to facilitate young workers to get job
from this competency exam do satisfied the objectives. The factors identified for not
applying jobs are: still finishing study, already working, and taking entrepreneurship
path. and are still asking support from their parents. Those who are working in banks,
schools, government institutions and private companies, others say they are going to
try to propose again, and are going to continue their education before attempting to get
job again. Interestingly, there are some respondents are willing to take
entrepreneurship instead of continuing their effort to get a job. This means that
entrepreneurship is attractive for them.

A total number of 1042 flathead mullet Mugil cephalus were searched for
parasites during summer & autumn 2015 and winter & spring 2016. Six different
parasite taxa belonging to Microsporidia, Myxozoa, Ciliophora, Anisakidae and
Gnathostomatidae were identified. The total number of infested mullets along the
study period with one or more parasites was 396 representing a percentage of 38.0%.
Mullets were infested with Microsporum velveticum through ingesting the
intermediate host. This parasite was observed in the intestinal epithelia, adipose
tissue, liver, stomach epithelia, muscles and air bladder. Myxidium depressum was
observed in the liver and gall bladder of infested mullets in a plasmid stage that had
undergone sporogony forming multicellular myxospores. Trichodina murmanica was
observed on the gill surface, the operculum and respiratory epithelium where
superficial to deep ulcerative lesions were visible. Third Larval stages of Anisakis
simplex, Raphidascaris acus and Gnathostoma spinigerum were observed free in the
duodenum and ileim or encapsulated in the stomach epithelia, liver, and muscles.
The infra-community of protists was highest in winter and fall while for parasitic
nematodes was during spring and summer. Seasonal fluctuation of the parasite
community was demonstrated by using standard calculations.

This cross-sectional study was conducted to determine the level of violence
and influencing factors, reasons for violence according to women, women‟ behaviors
in response to violence, reasons given by women who are exposed to violence for
sustaining their marriage in Sanliurfa in Turkey between 15 December 2013 and 15
February 2014.Participants were selected by using 30 cluster sampling methods. A
total of 300 married women were reached. The prevalence of being exposed to any
type of violence was determined 78.7%; this included physical violence 18.3%, verbal
violence 50.3%, emotional violence 38.3%, sexual violence 8.0%, and economic
violence 57.0%. Considering all types of violence, the most common applicator of
violence was husband (90–100%). Almost half of the women stated that they gave no
reaction/became introverted and cried in response to violence from their husbands.
Almost half of women being exposed to violence by their husbands were observed to
sustain their marriage. It is also, 23.6% of women stated that they confirmed man's
wife to violence in some cases (It is also 23.6% of women stated that they are OK with
their husbans violance to themselves in some cases.) Women who participated in the
study had a very high prevalence of being exposed to violence. Even more, violence
was approved by women in some cases. These results show that health care
professionals rendering services in the region have great responsibilities to prevent,
determine and protect individuals from the violence, as well providing treatment and

Urinary tract infection (UTI) is one of the most common infectious diseases
globally. An increasing antimicrobial resistance among Community-acquired (CA)
and Nosocomial UTI has been rapidly growing. Cross-sectional, analytical and
descriptive study was conducted to investigate the current in vitro susceptibility
pattern of the clinically isolated bacteria among Community and Hospital-acquired
(HA) UTI. Patient data for 421 urine specimens were collected from the case records
during October 2016 to March 2017. Significant growth was yielded from 170 of urine
specimens. Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion method was used for detection antibiotic
susceptibility pattern for all isolates. Of the total 170 (40.4%) culture positive samples,
51.2% and 48.8% were CA and HA UTI respectively. The culture positivity of UTI
among the female was (44.1%) compared to (55.9%) among the male. There was a
significant difference in resistance pattern between CA and Nosocomial UTI. The
distribution of the isolated pathogens were (51.2%) and (48.8%) in CA and HA
respectively. The predominant bacterial isolate was Escherichia coli (43.5%) in both
cases of community and nosocomial UTI. However, Klebsiella pneumoniae (69.0%)
was mostly isolated from HA-UTI while Staphylococcus aureus (80.0%) was mostly
detected in CA-UTI. The recent study revealed high resistant rates of UTI among HA
as compared to CA. This study revealed that more than 90% of HA-UTIs isolated
pathogens were resistant to broad-spectrum Penicillins, Cephalosporins, Quinolones,
and Macrolides. Contrarily, high rates of bacterial sensitivity was found towards
Imipenem (82.9%), Nitrofurantoin (72.4%), Ertapenem (70.7%), and Amikacin
(67.1%). Even if Escherichia coli remains the major pathogen in UTI, the resistance
pattern of CA-UTI is frightening in our country. Nitrofurantoin is the only oral drug
that retained reasonable activity against most UTI pathogens. Imipenem and
Ertapenem remain effective for UTI bacterial isolates. The changing of UTI
etiological agents was observed in the current study.
