Introduction: Appropriate knowledge, attitude and practice against any infectious disease improve perception consequently adopt preventive practices toward transmission. Good is the key to prevent like COVID-19. Objective: To assess protective behaviour COVID-19 among members of Shaheed Salahuddin Cantonment, Ghatail. Materials Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted at Cantonment fro...

Aim The aim of this study was to determine the treatments and their outcomes in horses with colic in Nairobi County, Kenya. Materials and Methods This is a retrospective study to determine the occurrence, treatments, pain management, and outcomes of colic in horses in Nairobi County. Association between pain management protocols and the outcomes of colic with regard to recovery or death was a...

There is a distinct lack of tools that provide a comprehensive measure of the similarity between corpora. Finding similar corpora is necessary for the design of certain user studies investigating text processing. It is also useful for ensuring comparability between studies on document analysis conducted across classified and unclassified domains. In this study, human judgements of corpora simil...

We present an analysis of prototype code designed to fit point-spread functions to point-like astronomical objects appearing in images taken by DECam, or the Dark Energy Camera. We test three methods, each of which yields a maximum likelihood estimate for a different likelihood function. We call these methods Poisson likelihood, χ2 with background error, and χ2 with data error, and describe the...

We propose a new method for the extraction of Rotation Measure from spectral polarization data. The method is based on maximum likelihood analysis and takes into account the circular nature of the polarization data. The method is unbiased and statistically more efficient than the standard χ2 procedure. We also find that the method is computationally much faster than the standard χ2 procedure if...

We provide an overview on superstatistical techniques applied to complex systems with time scale separation. Three examples of recent applications are dealt with in somewhat more detail: the statistics of small-scale velocity differences in Lagrangian turbulence experiments, train delay statistics on the British rail network, and survival statistics of cancer patients once diagnosed with cancer...

About half (50.2 %) of the analyzed Myspace-members consider themselves as singles (55% male vs. 45% female). Among this group 27.9% of the female and 48.8 % of the male users stated to be interested in dating (χ2[231] = 10.5, p < .01). A serious relationship was in the interest of 25.0% of the female and 37.8% of the male singles (χ2[231] = 4.3, p < .05) Thus the gender difference for interest...
