The authors
report a rare case of a young man of 20 who presented following an accident of
the public highway a protrusive neglected fracture dislocation of the hip
without impaired function. This is an observation describing frequent lesion
entity in our context in the absence
of major functional impact and the old character of the lesion. The abstention
was the therapeutic adopted choice. We will discuss the mechanisms, our
therapeutic attitude and evolution of this clinical entity through the...

Background: Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is one of the most common reasons
of hospitalization in western countries. The rate of early mortality (the first
30 days) caused by AMI is about 30%. Many studies have introduced the infection
with Helicobacter pylori and mycoplasma
pneumonia as causes of AMI. However, some other studies on the effect of mycoplasma
pneumonia, Helicobacter pylori, and blood
group on the incidence of heart attack showed contradictions that might be due t...

The primary objective of the research was to assess the impact of
Atlantic Ocean on limited arable land on the inhabitants of Escravos metropolis
in Warri South-West Local Government Area (LGA), Delta State. The primary data
used for the investigation were obtained using structured questionnaire given
to 140 respondents. Anthropological methods of data collected (participants,
observation) were also employed. Simple statistical tools (percentage) were
used to analyze the acquired data. The resul...

Taxonomic audit was carried out on three varieties of sweet potato ( Ipomoea batata) in north central part of
Nigeria. Ten (10) tubers of the representative samples of
three varieties of sweet potato (Purple, Yellow and White varieties) were
collected from different locations within the north central part of Nigeria and
planted in the research farm of the University of Agriculture, Makurdi,
Nigeria. At full maturity, they were characterized using gross macro- and micromorphological feature...

This essay considers “the other” in Section
2— Levinas with Confucius and Section 3— The Other, to conclude with a wrap-up.
Section 2 is Confucius critically dialoguing with Levinas. Section 3 develops
“the other.” The wrap-up stresses how important such intercultural dialogue is.
Section 2 has five themes: “face” as the other; “ethics” as human cosmology;
the “other” as respect-dialogues; reasoning as logic-playing; and failure as
success persistent. Section 3 has five more t...

Background and aims: Nowadays, artificial insulators such as fiberglass
and rock wool are used as sound absorbers in developing countries. The present
study is performed to introduce new sound absorbing materials used in developed
countries and discuss their acoustical characteristics. It also aims to look at
the efficiency of sound absorber natural materials (green materials) as an alternative
to commercial materials with a synthetic base used in different places.
Methods: In order to identify ...

Economic and social development has been one
of the major concerns for modernization and progress. Human development
includes three factors: life expectancy, GDP and knowledge (education).
Education is an important condition for human development. In the 1960s, human capital
theorists reported that small developing nations in the Caribbean spent as much
as 60 percent of GDP on education in an attempt to produce a highly trained and
skilled labor force. The main objective of this paper is to deco...

In order to get a better understanding of diphthongs, as Deterding (2000)
and Salbrina (2006) stated, the formant movement can be studied using the rate
of change (ROC). Current research has considered the ROC of diphthongs in
Kermanshahi Kurdish dialect. In this research, 840 tokens have been considered
from speech samples of 20 male/female speakers in word/sentence context. The
ROC of the first formant frequency (F1) and the second formant frequency (F2) is
studied using Praat version 5.2.34. ...

Based on the mechanism of vacuum polarization, we here establish a set of
new electromagnetic field equations (EFEs) in 5-dimensional Minkowski
coordinate system, which can be used to consider some physical implications, such
as the dispersion, the polarized states and the Hubble redshift
of massive photon. It shows that, the effective mass of photon is related to
the Hubble constant H, and finally determined
by its unit spin h. Importantly,
these obtained equations, working...

Perception is the interpretation of the sensory stimuli received from the
environment. Visual, auditory, and tactile senses are collected and interpreted
in the “General Interpretation Area” (Wernicke’s area). This area alone plays a
much more active role than all other regions of the cortex in the comprehension
of the brain called intelligence. We comprehend the events as a whole with the
combination of the visual, auditory, and tactile perceptions in the Wernicke’s
area; the events remain long...
