Soil-Transmitted Helminths (STH) merupakan parasit yang paling sering ditemukan pada manusia, infeksi STH menyebabkan morbiditas namun kerap terabaikan sehingga di kategorikan oleh WHO sebagai neglegted tropical disease , penelitian ini memiliki tujuan untuk mengidentifikasi orang dewasa sehat. Penelitian deskriptif kategorik, dengan metode pengambilan sampel multi stage random sampling . dilak...

Tropical cyclonesis remains as one of the most challenging problems in atmospheric sciences, and is still subject to lively debate. Some argue that the tropical cyclogenesis is mostly controlled by large-scale circulations, and therefore, possesses a high degree of predictability. Others argue that the large-scale circulations only provides a favorable environment, the actual cyclogenesis is si...

Abiotic filtering is a major driver of gradients in the structure and functioning of ecosystems from the tropics to the poles. It is thus likely that environmental filtering is an important assembly process at the transition of biogeographical zones where many species occur at their range limits. Shifts in species abundances and association patterns along environmental gradients can be indicati...

Biogeochemical processes are driven jointly by mass flux and metabolism, but biogeochemical contrasts across latitude are more strongly related to metabolism than to mass flux. Metabolism can be expressed in terms of metabolic potential, which is regulated by temperature, irradiance, and chemical feedstocks (nutrients, electron acceptors, organic matter). Metabolic potential of autotrophs in tr...

Torpor, the most effective means of energy conservation available to endotherms, is still widely viewed as a specific adaptation in a few high-latitude, cold-climate endotherms with no adaptive function in warm regions. Nevertheless, a growing number of diverse terrestrial mammals and birds from low latitudes (0-30°), including species from tropical and subtropical regions, are heterothermic an...

This paper aims to extend the results by Ross [15] and by Modica and Scarsini [13] to stochastic dominance of degree 4 and over. Specifically, it is shown that Ross’ approach can be extended to any order of risk attitude beyond the generalization proposed by Modica and Scarsini by means of sth degree increase in risk defined by Ekern [8].

Soil-transmitted helminths and schistosomiasis are among seventeen WHO prioritized neglected tropical diseases that infect humans. These parasitic infections can be treated using single-dose, safe and often donated drugs. Ethiopia successfully mapped the distribution of these infections nationwide. According to the mapping there are an estimated 38.3 million people living in schistosomiasis end...

During one year period from 2010 to 2011 the samples from pneumonic animals were taken and transported to the laboratory. Pasteurella multocida were identified in 16.6% of animal by biochemical test. The high incidence of P. multocida was obtained in the south of Fars province, where the area was warm region. The Mean Death Time between the isolates was 12-18 and 19-24 hours. Only the capsular ...

BACKGROUND Honduras is endemic for soil-transmitted helminth (STH) infections, but critical information gaps still remain on the prevalence and intensity of these infections as well as on their spatial distribution at subnational levels. OBJECTIVES Firstly, to review the research activity on STH infections in Honduras and secondly, to carry out a national prevalence analysis and map the geogr...
