Recent rhetoric surrounding the contemporary aid relationship between donors and African states is couched in terms of a high level consensus between western and African political leaderships, a central pillar of which is adherence to liberal principles of governance and economic management. The paper argues that an analysis of the nature of this consensus and its prospects requires that we nee...

this study was conducted because of influence of prebiotics (alphamune) and symbiotic (biomin) on histometrical development of small intestine and lymphatic tissue of caecal tonsil have been not reported on broiler chicken. in this study, different parts of small intestine and caecal tonsil, which is a major area of gut associated lymphatic tissue (galt) in chicken were selected. one hundred an...

We take a layered approach to contextualise Information Communication Technology for Development (ICT4D) understand digital technologists’ motivations implement technologies address socio-economic issues based on their capabilities and kinship affiliations. adopt an interpretive conducting inductive qualitative study of technologists in South Africa. propose three mechanisms (emotional connecte...

Two main mechanisms are thought to affect the prevalence of endophyte-grass symbiosis in host populations: the mode of endophyte transmission, and the fitness differential between symbiotic and non-symbiotic plants. These mechanisms have mostly been studied in synthetic grass populations. If we are to improve our understanding of the ecological and evolutionary dynamics of such symbioses, we no...

background: regarding to the growing prevalence of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (nafld), concentrating on various strategies to its prevention and management seems necessary. the aim of this study was to determine the effects of symbiotic on c‑reactive protein (crp), liver enzymes, and ultrasound findings in patients with nafld. methods: eighty nafld patients were enrolled in this randomize...

This paper presents the results of a study focusing on dimensions object relations in people with autism spectrum disorder. An relation denotes relationship significant other, within which several identification processes take place through meaningful emotional exchange. is described by developmental process separation and individuation, primarily occurs children from birth to their third year ...

We deal with the statistical matching problem and in particular we study the problem related to the managing of inconsistencies. In fact, when logical relations among the variables are present incoherence can arise in the probability evaluations. The aim of this paper is to remove such incoherences by using different methods. Specific precise distances minimization or least committal imprecise ...

Nebulae around symbiotic Miras look very much like genuine planetary nebulae, although they are formed in a slightly different way. We present near infrared photometry of known and suspected symbiotic nebulae obtained with the Deep Near Infrared Southern Sky Survey (DENIS). We demonstrate that the near infrared colours are an excellent tool to distinguish symbiotic from genuine planetary nebula...

background: increase in prevalence of obesity and type 2 diabetes which are of the main risk factors of metabolic syndrome, is not only the result of changes in genetic, diet or physical activity, but also an imbalance of micro flora may play an important role. therefore, alteration of micro flora using pre/probiotic is considered as a new strategy for treatment of metabolic disorders.   method...
