The need to consolidate and complete the development progress driven by the Millenium Development Goals (MDGs) and ensure that no one is left behind led world leaders to gather at the UN Headquarters in New York in September 2015 to adopt a new program on sustainable development. The SDGs provide a more ambitious international framework for driving progress between 2016 and 2030. A review of the MDGs implementation in Nigeria reveals that the country registered mixed results across the goals, geographic areas and gender groups. Even though, there are some progresses on some indicators, many of the goals and targets were not met. This is in view of the fact that the Nigerian Government did so many things in order to achieve the set goals. The debates surrounding the SDGs have mainly concerned with the setting of goals and indicators while less attention has been paid to discussing the roles and responsibilities of different stakeholders towards achieving these goals, and how to best implement this universal framework at the local level. Given the scope and ambition of the SDGs, it is clear that governments alone cannot achieve the agenda. Therefore, building vibrant and systematic partnerships with other stakeholders is a vital prerequisite for the successful implementation of a transformative agenda to accelerate poverty reduction and sustainable development goals. The objective of this paper is to explore the role of CSOs, VOPEs, private sector and the media towards achieving the SDGs in Nigeria.

As the quest to counteract the undesirable effects of electric load which create power factors less than unity increases, a novel mid-point converter system is presented. This is a phase-controlled ac to dc converter where the conducting and switching method is on one-to-one basis, unlike the full-bridge converter whose switching goes in pairs. Using the fourier series, the generalized power factor of this system of converter was calculated. From this general power factors, the power factor of the mid-point converter with any number of phases and pulse numbers can be calculated.

The world of higher and further education has been changing rapidly and there has been a shift towards online education. Professional and regulatory bodies are indicating the importance of catering for online higher education. However, it is important to consider the effectiveness of online education in the development of skills required by the employers. As South Africa is facing high unemployment, graduating students should be equipped with more than just the qualification they registered to complete; they need to be employable.

This paper deals with a specific and rarely studied issue of Bosnia and Herzegovina in the field of international judicial cooperation in criminal matters. This is the common problem of successfully working with declarations to multilateral legal instruments. In view of this, the aim of my presentation is to find better solutions to this problem by identifying and correcting basic mistakes and unjustifiable omissions in making use of such declarations. For this purpose special attention is given, initially, to the hierarchy of legal instruments: domestic law and international agreements. It is well-known that in Civil Law (Continental-European, Latin) countries, international agreements are applicable directly, without any enabling legislation, and override domestic law which contradicts them. The priority of such agreements is indisputable in such countries. Belonging to this group of countries, Bosnia and Herzegovina makes no exception. As a result, where Bosnia and Herzegovina is a Party to some international agreement, it cannot unilaterally change anything in this agreement: either by means of its domestic law or in any other way. However, when the international agreement is a multilateral convention, Bosnia and Herzegovina is in the position to unilaterally modify it. The sole and irreplaceable means to reach this goal is a reservation or in some sense a declaration to the multilateral convention. Nevertheless, there are cases where the legislation of this country has not taken into consideration the inability of its own domestic law to change multilateral conventions. This makes it necessary to discuss those cases and explain the need of resorting to declarations, in particular, for the purpose of producing the desired result.

Renal failure is one of the most increasing issue and patient need to admit or enter in any care organization where care for the renal care or therapy are provided to the patients. The renal kidney failure patient’s kidney stopped working well and it is difficult for the patients to survive easily without dialysis (Weiser 2013).

Abstract: The obesity, factor of morbidity and mortality, is considered as a real health public problem. In gynecology, its consequences on the fertility and the contraception are severing and the obesity is at the origin of important obstetric complications that must make consider these pregnancies as at risk. Our practices have to take into account these complications by assuring an adapted and premature care to improve the maternal and neonatal outcomes.

Trauma remains one of the principal causes of mortality in the world, especially among young adults. The most serious immediate life-threatening complication following maxillofacial trauma is airway obstruction. The onset can be sudden, as with foreign body aspiration, or following soft-tissue damage that can lead at a later stage to airway-compromising edema. The medical literature regarding facial trauma appears to support the hypothesis that maxillofacial trauma alone is rarely life threatening or will not lead to life-threatening conditions unless associated with airway compromise. There are some causes of life threatening complications following trauma to the maxillofacial region such as massive bleeding or undiagnosed cervical spine injury. However, there are some situations that may cause irreversible damage unless immediate operation is undertaken. The almost complete lack of reports dealing with death or irreversible damage in trauma involving the maxillofacial region prompted us to review the mortality following trauma to the maxillofacial region.

Bad obstetric history(BOH) is specific to women specially during childbearing age, causes by TORCH group (Toxoplasma gondii, Rubella virus, Cytomegalovirus (CMV), Herpes simplex virus) and others agents like Chlamydia trachomatis, Treponema pallidum, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, HIV,etc The objective of the study is to evaluate the incidence of TORCH infections in pregnancy wastage in women with bad obstetric history (BOH).The study included 200 women aging from 15 to over than 46years with bad obstetric history and 75 clinically normal women with previous normal full term deliveries. Serological evaluation for TORCH infections was carried out by IgM ELISA method. Seropositivity for toxoplasma was 27.33%, rubella 21.66%, cytomegalovirus 34.33% and herpes simplex virus 17.66 with high frequency of stillbirths 94.11 %, Maximum number of cases of abortion (27.27%), intrauterine growth retardation (9.37%), intrauterine death (17.64%) and preterm labor (18.18%) was associated with toxoplasma infection. Seropositivity in women with BOH is demonstrates a strong association between the infectious agents (Toxoplasma, Rubella and CMV)) A previous history of pregnancy wastage and the serological reaction for TORCH infections during current pregnancy must be considered while managing BOH cases so as to reduce the adverse fetal outcome.

So that the community has certainty about structuring the HTI work area, and the community can actively participate without causing conflict.

The translator, as the subject during the process of translation, is the most important and active factor in translation, whose subjectivity plays a key role in the translation practice. Not until the 1960s, did some researchers start to study the role of the translator in the process of the translation. Based on the previous studies on the subjectivity of the translator at home and abroad, this study mainly focuses on the subjectivity of the translator from cultural perspective. And it makes an analysis of the factors that influence translator’s subjectivity from three aspects: translation standards, purpose of translator and personal experiences of the translator. The conclusion is of great importance and practical value to cultural communication and the teaching of foreign language.

Contact dermatitis is an inflammatory response of the skin as a result of exposure to an exogenous agent. It is divided into two main types: 1. Contact Irritant Dermatitis (CID) 2. Contact Allergic Dermatitis (CAD). The prevalence of CAD in the general population has been reported to vary from 1.5-5.4%. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the precipitating and aggravating factors in CAD and study to evaluate the results of the patch test in patients having allergic contact dermatitis. Methods: A total of 50 patients of either sex with clinically suspected contact dermatitis who attended the Out Patient Clinic of Dermatology Department of Prathima Medical College, Nagnoor, Karimnagar.
