Intestinal protozoa infections and associated factors among diarrheal under-five children in Borena district, central Ethiopia by Alebie Mesfin, Woynshet Gelaye, Getaneh Alemu

“…These findings revealed that Giardia lamblia and Entamoeba histolytica are public health problems causing diarrhea among under-five children in the study area, and their transmission is associated with the illiteracy of mothers/guardians, the absence of functional toilets, not using soap/ash during hand washing, and frequent contact with domestic animals. Therefore, when diagnosing, treating, and educating patients about diarrhea, healthcare professionals should take these protozoans into account.…”

Price tag of glaucoma care is minor compared with the total direct and indirect costs of glaucoma: Results from nationwide survey and register data. by Petri K M Purola, Joonas Taipale, Saku Väätäinen, Mika Harju, Seppo V P Koskinen, Hannu M T Uusitalo

“…<h4>Conclusion</h4>Glaucoma is associated with an increased health care consumption mainly due to non-eye-related health care, which can be explained by the vision loss as well as increased number of co-morbidities among glaucoma patients. Therefore, glaucoma constitutes a major economic burden for the health care system and society, highlighting the importance of early glaucoma interventions. …”

Influence of Microscopic Parameters on the Stress-Strain Relation in Rocks by Yanhui Cheng, Weijun Yang

“…The particle contact stiffness has less influence on the elastic modulus of the simulated specimens than kn/ks. (2) Before the failure of the specimen, the axial strain corresponding to the peak compressive strength increases with the increase in the stiffness ratio kn¯/ks¯ of the parallel bond. (3) The particle contact modulus Ec has a great influence on the elastic modulus of sandstone and is characterized by the increase in the particle contact modulus Ec, corresponding axial strain for the peak compressive strength decreases, and the slope of the stress-strain relationship curves before damage increases. (4) The elastic modulus of the parallel bond greatly influences the uniaxial compressive strength, and the relationship between them is proportional.…”
