The Effect Of Botulinum Toxin Type A On Chronic Neck-Shoulder Pain: A Casereport, Sin-Hao Ho, Shih-Chung Chang, Yao-Jen Chen, Amy I-Hui Lin, Su-Ju Tsai
The Effect Of Botulinum Toxin Type A On Chronic Neck-Shoulder Pain: A Casereport, Sin-Hao Ho, Shih-Chung Chang, Yao-Jen Chen, Amy I-Hui Lin, Su-Ju Tsai
Rehabilitation Practice and Science
Neck and shoulder pain is a common clinical complaint. However, the associated mechanism of this condition is thought to be multifactorial and is not yet fully understood. Various studies and multiple clinical experiences have shown the effectiveness of treatment with botulinum toxin type A in the improvement of dystonia and muscle spasticity. The mechanism of the analgesic effect of botulinum toxin type A has also been widely investigated. Many studies have addressed the use of botulinum toxin type A in the treatment of myofascial pain, but its effectiveness and side effects remain controversial. This casereport describes a young woman with …

An Approach To Improve International Maritime Security Through The Coordination Between The Imo Instruments And The Proliferation Security Initiative (Psi) Regime, Song Y. Yi
World Maritime University Dissertations
This dissertation is a study on the Proliferation Security Initiative (PSI) which is a global effort through which nations deliberately interdict carriage of illicit WMD-related substances commuting States and non-States actors. Given its flexibility as an “activity” rather than an organization, the initiative has gained supports from more than 102 countries since its interception in 2003. Now, in its 10th year, and despite boasting over 100 participants, the PSI continues to face legal, political and structural challenges. By looking into the realities of PSI activities, the paper attempts to explore some of the key challenges, with its practical means of …

How Exclusive Is The Exclusive Economic Zone : Contemporary Analysis Of The United Nations Convention On The Law Of The Sea 1982, Oscar Garrido-Lecca Hoyle
World Maritime University Dissertations
International agreements as maritime international laws are the main tool for the sustainable development of the protection and employment of the oceans and seas. Dealing with maritime issues that arise every day, requires a highly focused analysis and establishment of principles and rules to prevent these problems. Globalization provides the opportunity to carry out business around the world and its development has created transnational companies. Technological advances have allowed extended opportunities to explore and exploit the natural resources of the seas, with the resulting risk of these resources becoming extinct if such activities are not controlled. In this scenario, the …

Radar Based Navigation In Unknown Terrain, Kyle J. Kauffman
Radar Based Navigation In Unknown Terrain, Kyle J. Kauffman
Theses and Dissertations
There is a great need to develop non-GPS based methods for positioning and navigation in situations where GPS is not available. This research focuses on the development of an Ultra-Wideband Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexed (UWB-OFDM) radar as a navigation sensor in GPS-denied environments. A side-looking vehicle-fixed UWB-OFDM radar is mounted to a ground or aerial vehicle continuously collecting data. A set of signal processing algorithms and methods are developed which use the raw radar data to aide in calculating the vehicle position and velocity via a simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) approach. The radar processing algorithms detect strong, persistent, and …

Comparison Of Chemical Nano Structure, Rheological And Mechanical Properties Of Long Oil Alkyd Resin Synthesized Using Polybasic Acids Catalyst, Ar Ilkhani
Tanzania Journal of Science
In this research, chemical nano structures, rheological and mechanical properties of long oil alkyd resin which was synthesized using different polybasic acid catalysts have been studied. These catalyst were phosphoric acid, 1,2,4-benzene tricarboxylic acid and succinic acid. The new compounds were compared with reference formula of long oil alkyd resin. For this idea, same formula of clear air drying varnishes were prepared based on different long oil resins which have been synthesized using different catalysts and reference long oil alkyd resin.

Computational Chemistry Capacity Building In An Underprivileged Context: Challenges, Outcomes And Perspectives, L Mammino
Tanzania Journal of Science
Computational chemistry is a fast developing branch of modern chemistry, focusing on the study of molecules to enable better understanding of the properties of substances. Its applications comprise a variety of fields, from drug design to the design of compounds with desired properties (e.g., catalysts with specific actions) and to ample overlaps with nanotechnology. However, despite its relevance, the presence of computational chemistry research in Sub-Saharan Africa is still scarce, practically absent in many institutions. Bridging the gap with the other continents requires the identification of capacity building options that may enable a rapid growth. The recent experience at the …
Status Of Pesticides And Degradation Products In Soil After Clean-Up Of Stockpiles And Treatment With Sodium Hydroxide At A Former Storage Site In Korogwe, Tanzania, Jam Mahugija
Tanzania Journal of Science
The status of pesticide residues in soil samples collected from a former storage site one year after clean-up of stockpiles and treatment with NaOH was investigated. The analytes were extracted from samples by pressurized fluid extraction using n-hexane:acetone (75:25) mixture. Clean-up of extracts was conducted by using silica gel and alumina with 3% H2O and the extracts were eluted with hexane:dichloromethane (1:1). Extra clean-up was performed through C18 SPE cartridges using acetonitrile as the eluting solvent. Labelled internal standards were used for identification and quantification. Analysis of the analytes was performed using a high resolution GC–MS. The dominant contaminants detected …
Effects Of Temperature On The Physicochemical Properties Of Traditionally Processed Vegetable Oils And Their Blends, Fn Ngassapa, Ss Nyandoroa, Tr Mwaisaka
Effects Of Temperature On The Physicochemical Properties Of Traditionally Processed Vegetable Oils And Their Blends, Fn Ngassapa, Ss Nyandoroa, Tr Mwaisaka
Tanzania Journal of Science
The quality and stability of traditionally processed palm, sunflower and sesame oils and their blends as affected by temperature were evaluated by analyzing their physicochemical properties which included acid, saponification, peroxide, iodine values and refractive indices.. The initial quality of traditionally processed oils studied was found to be within the specifications of TZS and Codex requirements. The results further indicate that the quality of both unblended and blended traditionally processed vegetable oils deteriorate significantly at elevated temperatures (p < 0.05). However, the blends showed relatively better quality and stability than the unblended ones whereby the formulations of palm oil (PO) and sesame oil (SSO) appeared to be more stable than those of PO and sunflower oil (SO). This work suggests that blending of traditionally processed PO, SO and SSO improves the quality and stability of these oils.
Evaluation Of Patterns And Spatial Trends Of Pesticide Residues From Vikuge Farm, Coast Region, Tanzania By Principal Components Analysis, Kf Kilulya, Gs Mhinzi
Evaluation Of Patterns And Spatial Trends Of Pesticide Residues From Vikuge Farm, Coast Region, Tanzania By Principal Components Analysis, Kf Kilulya, Gs Mhinzi
Tanzania Journal of Science
This paper reports on the analysis of organochlorine pesticides pollution data obtained from samples collected from Vikuge farm, Coast Region, Tanzania between 2000 and 2003 by principal component analysis (PCA). PCA of the data sets for pesticide residues in water, soil and sediments samples from Vikuge has shown that the obsolete pesticides dumped at Vikuge pasture farm for a number of years undergo degradation with time and the distribution pattern of the pesticides in the three environments is similar. Strong outliers were also identified in the data by the use of PCA score plots. Further analysis of the data by …

Participatory Budgeting: Diffusion And Outcomes Across The World, Brian Wampler, Janette Hartz-Karp
Political Science Faculty Publications and Presentations
In this special issue of the Journal of Public Deliberation, multiple faces of Participatory Budgeting programs are revealed. The articles demonstrate that there is no standardized set of “best practices” that governments are adopting, but there are a broader set of principles that are adapted by local governments to meet local circumstances. Adopt and adapt appears to be the logic behind many PB programs.
