The objective of this study was to evaluate cases of brought in dead
(BID) patients in the accident and emergency unit of Effia-Nkwanta Regional
Hospital through a retrospective study of a period
of 3 years. A retrospective descriptive
study of BID cases from the death register and patients’ records of the accident and emergency unit of the
hospital was carried out from January 2011 to December 2013. 31% (180/574) of BID cases were recorded over the study
period with the age range from below 1 y...

In this paper we construct conjugate spectral problem and the conditions of biorthogonality for distribution in extended plates of variable thickness of the problem considered. It describes the procedure of solving problems and a numerical result is on wave propagation in an infinitely large plate of variable thickness. Viscous properties of the material are taken into account by means of an integral operator Voltaire. Research is conducted in the framework of the spatial theory of visco elastic...

Abnormal application behavior in mobile can produce a number of
undesirable effects. An incorrect or insufficient implementation of application
lifecycle, memory related issues and malicious application might cause an
unexpected behavior of the application such as bad usability, not responding,
crashed and even data loss. Current analysis and detection of abnormal
applications behavior are still not comprehensive enough where behavior under
user visible failure category such as crash, “stopped u...

This paper focuses on the ionospheric anomalies observed in the F2 layer
at Tortosa in Ebre Observatory (40.8°N, 0.49°E), before and after a seismic
event in Morocco (Agadir). The data on optimal frequency of F2 layer (f0F2)
were acquired using ground based ionosonde. The median- based statistical
technique was applied to the data to examine the possible relationship between
the earthquake displacement field and the variation of the f0F2 in the
ionosphere. The results point to a variation charac...
