Abstract: Literature on health and diseases indicate that people perceive diseases variously. People develop their own views and beliefs about the causes, symptoms, modes of transmission and therapy choices, which then influence their health seeking behaviour. The main objective of this study was to explore health seeking behaviour in relation to malaria among the fishermen on Rusinga Island on Lake Victoria Kenya. This study which focused on the fishermen on Rusinga Island on Lake Victoria ...
Abstract: This review paper presents and analyzes previous studies on wingtip devices mainly to reduce induced drag on fixed-wing aircraft and drones. Some of the parameters discussed are the different types of winglets, cant angles, and adjustable wing structures. And these are compared against performance measures including reduced drag, fuel consumption, and improved endurance. This study aims to explore the optimized design of a wing that will give maximum drag reduction for fixed-wing d...

ABSTRACT Child Abuse in Nigeria is an age long plague which has over the years left traumatic effects on the victims of its harshness on the one hand; and oh the other has become a menace which seeks to seriously threaten the sanctity and stability of a credible future for Nigeria.
Abstract: Antibiotic resistance has been a growing worldwide public health issue. The World Health Organization (WHO) has stated that the search for new antibiotics is slow, while antibiotic resistance is growing. WHO has also declared that antibiotic resistance is one of the top 10 global public health threats facing humanity in the 21st century. Therefore, this review discusses the potential of metal-based drugs as antibacterial agents from the period of the early 2000s to date. The review...
ABSTRACT Malaria is entirely preventable and treatable vector-borne disease which account for an estimated 219 million cases globally, killing about 660,000 people, mostly children under five years of age. The synergistic effects of nutrition in malaria infection were observed in mice fed with different nutrients (protein, carbohydrate, and grower mash) compounded diets for eight weeks prior to infection. All the experimental mice were infected with plasmodium berghei....

TB is still a major global health burden with sub-Saharan Africa being worst hit. Non-compliance to treatment, contributed upon by so many factors, have increased the danger of development of TB strains that are resistant to treatment. Development of drug resistance puts into jeopardy the global efforts of eradicating TB from the face of the earth. With the increase in treatment defaulters, and the risk of MDR-and XDR-TB, the study aimed to look into the factors contributing to this non-adher...
ABSTRACT The protective and antioxidant properties of Aqueous Anti-ulcer Drug (AQAUD) against Aspirin-induced gastric ulcers in albino rats were investigated. In this study, thirty male albino rats were divided into five groups. Rats in group I served as normal control and received food and water. Animals in group II received food and water in addition to aspirin 400mg/kg.b.wt orally on the 14th day. Rats in groups III, IV and V received “AQAUD” 250mg/kg.b.wt, 500mg/kg.b.wt and Omeprazo...

ABSTRACT The research sought to explain the impact of occupational stress related factors on employees’ mental health. The research is guided by four research questions which aim to explore the impact of occupational stress related factors, manifestations of mental health problems, coping strategies used by employees and measures that can be taken to minimize the impact of occupational stress related factors. The research was enriched with the transactional theory of stress and the person-e...
