vaccination considered as one of the most cost-effective health interventions worldwide  through prevention and control of many serious childhood diseases (1). it is estimated  global coverage of  dose 3 of diphtheria, tetanus, and pertussis (dtp3)among children one year old has been 86% in 2014 (by range from 77% to 96%  in african region and western pacific region; respectively) (2). globally...

this paper deals with the threshold radius that warrants the use of single restraining rail for transit and railroads. different railways use different threshold radius from 91m to 365m to provide restraining rail. these threshold figures are probably experience driven choices. the need for restraining rail may be related to a so-called derailment alarm coefficient of 1.2 sustained over 2m leng...

Tropical secondary forests are widespread in the anthropogenically modified landscapes. Because tropical were known to show a steady rate of above-ground biomass (AGB) recovery, they expected play crucial role carbon sequestration. However, preliminary survey logged-over Borneo, some patches covered with ferns and vines do not seem recover steadily despite fact that several decades have passed ...

background: considering the importance of an early diagnosis and proper decision-making in regards to the treatment of pediatric distal radius and elbow fractures, this study examines emergency medicine specialists’ accuracy in the diagnosis and treatment of these patients. methods: from 2012 and 2013, children less than 14 years old who were referred to an academic hospital emergency departmen...

in 1974, the world health organization (who) established the expanded program on immunization (epi) to ensure that all children have access to routinely recommended vaccines. since then, global coverage with the four core vaccines (bacille calmette guérin vaccine [for protection against tuberculosis], diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis vaccine [dtp], polio vaccine, and measles vaccine) has increased ...

the determination of gyration radius is a strong research for configuration of a macromolecule. italso reflects molecular compactness shape. in this work, to characterize the behavior of theprotein, we observe quantities such as the radius of gyration and the average energy. we studiedthe changes of these factors as a function of temperature for acetylcholine receptor protein in gasphase with n...

adequate coverage is one of the main problems for distributed wireless sensor networks and the effectiveness of that highly depends on the sensor deployment scheme. given a finite number of sensors, optimizing the sensor deployment will provide sufficient sensor coverage and save power of sensors for movement to target location to adequate coverage. in this paper, we apply fuzzy logic system to...

Context. Recent observations of brown dwarf spectroscopic variability in the infrared infer the presence of patchy cloud cover. Aims. This paper proposes a mechanism for producing inhomogeneous cloud coverage due to the depletion of cloud particles through the Coulomb explosion of dust in atmospheric plasma regions. Charged dust grains Coulomb-explode when the electrostatic stress of the grain ...

This paper reports on field measurements of point-to-point indoor high-speed (10 Mbit/s to 30 Mbit/s at 5 Mbaud) wireless communications realized using a flexible multilevel quadrature amplitude modulation (M-QAM) testbed that features real-time equalization and smart antenna-array technology. The results from an extensive set of measurements, 59 262 trials in all, performed without cochannel i...
