Abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB) is one of the commonest presenting symptoms in gynaecology out-patient
department. The term dysfunctional uterine bleeding is used to describe abnormal uterine bleeding for which no specific
cause has been found. Evaluation of histopathological pattern of endometrium is essential for appropriate management
of patient with abnormal uterine bleeding. Endometrial biopsy could be effectively used as the first diagnostic step in
DUB. This study was done to evaluate histopathology of endometrium for identifying the endometrial causes of DUB.
This is a prospective study, undertaken in the department of pathology. This study consisted of 150 cases of
hysterectomy specimens and endometrial scrapings received in the department of Pathology, Bhaskar Medical College
and Satya Diagnostic Centre, Hyderabad, Telangana State. Total duration of study was 2 years i.e from June 2014 to
November 2016. 150 endometrial lesions diagnosed on histopathology were selected for the final analyses. The most
common age group presenting with DUB was 40–49 years (49.3%). The commonest pattern in these patients was
proliferative endometrium (29.3%),followed by secretory endometrium (14%) and simple cystic hyperplasia (9.3%).
Other patterns identified were endometrial polyp, complex hyperplasia without atypia, endometrial carcinoma, pill
endometrium ,complex hyperplasia with atypia , endometritis , atrophic endometrium and adenomatous hyperplasia.
Endometrial causes of DUB and age pattern was statistically significant with P value <0.05. Histopathological
examination of endometrium should be done generously in women presenting with abnormal uterine bleeding especially
after the age of 40 years to rule out malignancy. It is useful for diagnosis, to assess therapeutic response and to know the
pathological incidence of organic lesions in cases of dysfunctional uterine bleeding prior to surgery.

Iraq is one of the richest countries in the world with natural resources, especially oil and natural gas. This
country has been subjected to a series of wars and economic blockade for many years, affecting the country's
infrastructure and causing the deterioration of services provided to citizens. Perhaps one of the poorest services is the fuel
produced in the refineries of the country, as the Iraqi gasoline and diesel are considered of the worst fuels on the global
level. The locally produced gasoline contains high sulfur content (500ppm) in addition to a high percentage of lead
compounds to increase octane. Iraqi diesel is considered the world's worst with 1 to 2.5% of its weight is sulfur. Iraqi
researchers have spared no effort to find alternative fuels that give better engine performance and lower exhaust
pollutants while improving fuel consumption. This paper examines some of these efforts over the past years and the
various findings of Iraqi investigators results using gaseous fuels such as natural gas, liquefied petroleum gas and
hydrogen, in addition to the use of some additives to gasoline and diesel, such as oxygenates and biofuels to reduce the
effects of sulfur associated with these types of fuel. Researchers have gone a long way in reaching multiple types and
alternative methods of operation to reduce the pollutants generated by the engines, and it remains the responsibility of
decision-makers to choose the most appropriate ones.

Abstract: We applied the wavelet methodology to study the results of the chaotic behavior of the production of particles in relativistic collisions of heavy ions. We use wavelet coherence to analyze the correspondence between theoretical and experimental data. We examined the 1-D phase space of variable (the case -space). We also compared the wavelet coherence values for -space and -space. It was also shown that the values of the wavelet of coherence depend on the values of the parameters p and q. We discussed our new results for the comparison purpose and findings were in the good agreements.

Abstract: Success of a complete denture relies on the basic principles of retention, stability and support. The increased interarch space in severely resorbed ridges of maxilla and mandible provides decreased support, retention and stability. In order to decrease the leverage, reduction in the weight of the dentures is recommended. This article describes a case report of an edentulous patient with severely resorbed maxillary ridge in which a simplified technique for fabricating a light weight hollow maxillary complete denture was used.

This study was conducted to identify any possible association between the different microorganisms within
oral cavity of smokers and oral cancer patients. Isolates were collected from 30 volunteers; smokers and oral cancer
patients during August and October 2013 in Khartoum Dental Hospital, Sudan. Swabs were obtained from both patients
and smokers who were not diagnosed as diabetics or immunosuppressed. Administration of antibiotic, steroid or other
treatment were taken in concern as well as age, gender beside smoking history. Each specimen was aseptically cultured
on nonselective media under both aerobic and anaerobic conditions, then the conventional methods for identification
were done. A total number of 45 bacterial isolates were represented by 6 genera of bacteria; (37.7%) Staphylococcus
spp, (26.6%) Bacillus spp , (22.2%) Streptococcus spp , (8.8%) Peptococcus spp., Aerococcus spp and Micrococcus spp
(2.2%), whereas 25 yeast isolates were represented by Candida albicans. In the smokers group; Peptococcus spp was
detected only in subjects who is being smoking. Moreover, the study showed significant(r = 0.563) correlation between
oral cancer and smoking. In patients group; Streptococcus spp and C. albicans were detected only in individuals without
treatment. Counts of C. albicans were elevated in smokers group than patients, while, Micrococcus spp and Aerococcus
spp were detected in patients but not in smokers. Study concludes that both of Micrococcus spp and Aerococcus spp may
be considered as diagnostic indicators of oral cancer.

The seeming non autonomy of work in the studied organization necessitated this study. The study examined
the type of relationship between job enrichment and employee commitment in selected brewing firms in Anambra State.
A survey research design was adopted. A sample of 156 respondents was selected from the population size of 543 using
Taro Yamani Formula. A 12-item questionnaire with close ended questions was used for data collection. Pearson Product
Moment Correlation Coefficient was used for data analysis. Finding showed that there is a significant positive
relationship between job autonomy and affective commitment among the employees in the selected brewing firms. It was
also found that when the jobs of the employees are enriched, their commitment level would increase positively and that
would ultimately increases their productivity level in the organization. The study recommended that organizations should
focus on giving employees a considerable level of job autonomy, this would enable them to utilize their skills and ability
to complete assigned tasks and take responsibility for their actions, as well as maintaining strong loyalty and commitment
level to the organization.

Recent developments in computer and web technology have prompted new revolutionary ways of using
Information Technology in English language teaching. While there is evidence of the usefulness of ICT in the Moroccan
language classroom, a wide range of factors and challenges still inhibit the widespread introduction and use of the new
technologies as basic tools of teaching, and deter EFL teachers from adopting them to maximize targeted learning
outcomes. The findings from the research suggest that there is no clear link between independent variables (teachers‟
socio-demographic and substantive variables) and the frequency of ICT use in the Moroccan English language
classroom. However, and though they are not statistically significant, gender and computer literacy show some effect.

Intraventricular neoplasms of the central nervous system are rare and arise from periventricular structures such
as the walls of the ventricular system, the septum pellucidum, and the choroid plexus. Many tumour types arise from, or
can bulge into the ventricular system, although there are certain lesions that are relatively restricted to ventricles. A
number of factors assist in defining the differential diagnosis, both radiological and clinical, including where the lesion is
positioned within the ventricle as well as age and any associated conditions. A total of 30 cases of primary
intraventricular tumors were studied. Study included both the left over squash and regular tumor tissue specimen.
Duration of the study was 2 years. In this study, the overall incidence of the intraventricular tumors was 5.47 %, 30 cases
among the total 548 intracranial lesions. Out of the 30 cases, 19 were males and 11 were females. Most of the cases were
seen in the age group of 11 to 20 years and least tumors were seen in the age group 51 to 70 years. Intraventricular
tumors are rare tumors and they closely mimic various other tumors of the CNS on imaging. Squash cytology and
Histopathological examination (HPE) usually confirms the diagnosis.

10.21276/sjbms
Institutions of higher learning in Kenya are faced with a multiplicity of challenges due to policy shifts that
have led to massification of education. The structural adjustment programmes (SAPS) together with other neoliberal
policies introduced by Britton wood institutions has had major implications for the education sector in Kenya. The
greatest effect has been on the human resource working in institutions of higher learning that have been faced by various
challenges including career stagnation. These has led to a pool of demotivated staff which has a spiral effect on the
quality of service provision thus leading to frequent and persistent strikes by both the staff and the students. All these are
linked to organizational politics and specifically its subset the politics of information. Therefore, the purpose of the study
is to examine the influence of information power on career development among administrative staff in public
universities: a case of University of Eldoret (UOE) in Eldoret, Kenya. The specific objective of the study was to
determine the influence of Information power on career development among administrative staff in public universities
.The research design employed was a case study to enhance collection of extensive and detailed information on the
research objective. The target population comprised of 134 permanent administrative employees of University of Eldoret.
This also formed the sample size since the population was not big enough the researcher employed a census technique in
the selection of respondents for the study. However only 130 respondents were able to fill their questionnaires and return.
Closed ended questionnaires with the aid of likert scales were employed as the data collection instrument for the study.
Data was analysed with the aid of both descriptive and inferential statistics specifically correlation to test the effect of
information power on career development. This data was then presented using tables, charts and graphs to enhance
analysis of data. This study is of great significance to policy makers, Human resource practitioners in universities, as well
as the University management who are able to make clear and effective policies on the issue of information power and
career development.

10.21276/sjbms
The purpose of this paper is to explore the best practice of small medium enterprises (SMEs) from Japan.
Japan has been proven to be successful lesson to be followed by Malaysia. Japan’s SMEs began after World War II in
1945. Thus, it has shown that the development process has intricacies and can be studied by Malaysian SMEs, which
began in the 1970s due to the revolution of new economic policies. This paper provides the understanding of the
development of SMEs between Japan and Malaysia. Further, we identify a gap between SMEs in Malaysia and SMEs in
Japan as best practice. The challenges SMEs face might be different in their respective countries—it might be from the
perspective of cultural aspects, market environments, and more, but with the initiative measures, pro and cons of both
countries’ SMEs can enhance their duty as the backbone of a country’s economy.
