Hepatitis B (HB) virus (HBV) remains a major risk factor for safe blood use. Compulsory pre-transfusion screening for HB core antibody (anti-HBc) to detect occult HBV infection (OHBVI) in HB surface antigen (HBsAg-)negative persons and prevent post-transfusion HBV infection in the target area is an unmet need. This study aimed to evaluate the presence of HBsAg and anti-HBc in prospective blood donors in Abuja, Nigeria and determine their association with age, gender, marital status (MS) and education.

Critical Considerations of Peri-Parturient Period (PPP) Management of Livestock
RK Singh, Avijit Dey*, Mala Singh and SS Dahiya
India is considered as one of the highly populated country of
livestock. This tremendous population is managed by our marginally
educated and poor farmers, those having lower assets and lesser
skills of animals rearing. During entire course of animal’s rearing,
transition period may consider as one of the most devastating life
span which ultimately reflects the gross output potential through
livestock. Thus, cross over such a devastating period is deciding
factor of future benefits through livestock rearing. The transition
period in dairy cows lies within last three weeks before parturition
to three weeks after parturition [1].

Substance Abuse Treatment: The Case for Adaptive Interventions
Keith K*, Theresa M and Emma P
The call for investigators is to develop flexible substance abuse treatments, which can be modified, based on clients/couples presenting issues or concerns, in contrast to the one-size-
fits-all approach typically developed and tested in clinical trials. Unfortunately, dissemination has become a major obstacle for researchers and treatment developers alike in that empirically
supported models are not being widely adopted in community settings. Thus, there is a need to identify strategies for modifying and delivering these interventions to allow for easier and more widespread implementation into community practice, while not comprising the integrity of these treatments.

PNPLA3 Polymorphism Directly Affects the Susceptibility of Genotype 4-Induced HCV Infection and Its Progression to Liver Fibrosis Among the Egyptian Patients
Introduction: Chronic Hepatitis C (CHC) infection is associated with liver fibrosis, cirrhosis, hepatocellular carcinoma, and eventually death. Genetic risk factors have been casted as predictors of the severity and progression of several CHC-associated liver diseases. PNPLA3 (rs738409), a novel genetic marker strongly associated with increased fat content in the liver. Nonetheless, recognition of an association between PNPLA3 rs73409 (C>G) and the severity of fibrosis in CHC has been inadequately studied.
Aim: To investigate the impact of PNPLA3 rs73409 (C>G) polymorphism on susceptibility to HCV infection and on liver fibrosis progression.
Methods: 351 individuals were genotyped for rs73409 (C>G) by TaqMan allelic discrimination assay, among them 175 were HCV patients and 176 healthy c.....

3D Laparoscopy: A Potential Cutting Edge in Minimal Invasive Digestive Surgery
Simone Sibio*, Sara di Carlo and Giuseppe S Sica
Laparoscopic surgery has changed surgical landscape, providing reduced surgical trauma, shorter hospital stays, less postoperative pain and better outcomes than open surgery. Since its first development in the 90’s, 3D technology applied to laparoscopic surgery has had several technical
improvements and now it represents, together with high definition technology, the best option in minimal invasive digestive surgery, providing shorter operative times and lower blood loss, making easier to perform surgical tasks both for trainees than for skilled surgeons. It remains a little bit more expensive than standard 2D laparoscopic devices but even cheaper than robotic equipment.

Poor Communication Skills and Inadequate Knowledge of Early Medical Officer
Mosab Nouraldein Mohammed Hamad*
During evening hours in winter, I felt with severe headache, fever and nausea, my brother advised me to go with him to visit the nearest hospital, when we arrived, two young females’ doctors set on one table, so two patients will present and discuss about their suffering without any confidentiality and maintenance of their personality. Before I was entered the medical officer co-office my brother advised me again to avoid one of those young doctors because he failed to treat his wife last weeks, then I went to another one which ask me about my medical problems and then write request form to the laboratory to examine my blood for malaria parasite (BFFM) without measuring my blood pressure or my body temperature.

Value-Based Algorithms-The Key to Improving Patient Care
Sanjit R Konda*, Ariana Lott and Kenneth A Egol
Health Care costs in the United States are increasing exponentially with spending reaching 3.3 trillion dollars in 2016. Estimates show that the total spending on musculoskeletal care for patients over the age of 65 increased from $153 billion between 1996 to 1998 to $294 billion between 2009 and 2011. In light of these rising health care costs, many are developing strategies to improve quality by reducing the financial burden of these patients on the health care system while improving outcomes.

A Review on Kinetic Study of Thermal Degradation of Plastic
Pyrolysis is thermal decomposition or degradation of material in the absence of oxygen which includes heating of plastic from ambient temperature
to 900 C in generally presence of nitrogen. Isothermal decomposition of plastic consists of decomposition of plastic from ambient temperature to
required temperature at constant heating rate, whereas non-isothermal decomposition of plastic includes decomposition of plastic implied at different
heating rates. Different types of waste plastics can be categorized as are Polyethylene (PE), Polypropylene (PP), Polyvinylchloride (PVC), Polystyrene
(PS), Polyethylene terephthalate (PET), etc. This paper includes a mini review on kinetic study on thermal degradation of plastic

using the Ferromagnetic
Resonance (FMR) technique. The FMR spectra were studied as functions of temperature (T) manganese concentration (x) and magnetic field orientation.
The samples were synthesized by direct fusion of the stoichiometric mixture of the elements, with Mn composition from x=0.05 to 0.25. The data were
interpreted in the framework of a phenomenological model for single domain uniaxial grains. The temperature variation of the resonance field shows a
critical point at about 230K, which is associated with a transition from the ferromagnetic to paramagnetic state. This behaviour is explained assuming
an effective magnetization following th.....

Review Article
What is the Reliability of the Reliability Function?
According to Knezevic [1] the purpose of existence of any functionable system is to do function ability work, which is considered to be done
when the expected measurable function is performed through time. However, experience teaches us that in-service life of functionable systems is
frequently beset by undesirable in-service disturbances resulting from a variety of physical mechanisms (overstress, wear out, natural phenomena and
human interventions), some of which result in hazardous consequences to: the users; the natural environment; the general population and businesses.
During the last sixty years, Reliability Theory has been used in an effort to predict these occurrences of undesirable in-service disturbances (frequently
called fa.....

Combustion of Mechanoactivated Mixtures of Aluminum and Copper Oxide
The optimization of parameters of mechanoactivation of powder mixture of Al+CuO for the purpose of realization of the most powerful energy
release at chemical interaction of components was performed. Vibration and planetary type of the ball mills were used. The results of mechanoactivation
on burning rate were controlled by means of high-speed photography of burning process of samples. Initiation of burning was carried out in the
electro spark way with control of a current impulse. The non-stationary mode of propagation of chemical interaction of mixture components was
recorded under low level spark. The influence of parameters of mixture porosity and current amplitude of a spark for induction period and the speed of
distribution of the reaction front of was defined. Results of resear.....

Ordered Defects: A Path to High-Temperature Superconductivity and Magnetic Order
Defects in the atomic lattice of solids are sometimes desired.
For example, atomic vacancies, single ones or more elaborated
defective structures, can generate localized magnetic moments in
a non-magnetic crystal lattice. Increasing their density to a few
percent, magnetic order appears. Furthermore, certain interfaces
can give rise to localized two-dimensional superconductivity with
a broad range of critical temperatures. Old and new experimental
facts emphasize the need to join e orts to start using systematically/
ordered defects in solids to achieve room temperature
superconductivity and magnetic order.

What Could Be the Concept of Time in Relation to Behavior in the Virtual World?
By questioning several people, when asked to define time, they all have a different approach. Their notion of time is specific to their vision,
their interpretation of the speed of events in response to their needs and emotions. Many scientists have their own theory of time, which sometimes
contradict others. If Galileo [1] has quantified time by mathematical measures, time measurement implicitly presupposes an orientation of time from
the past to the future. The speed of the elements movement in space can be constant or not. A measure that allows us to know or even predict the time
it will take to do this or that act. Added to the physical aspect, without obscuring Albert Einsteins theory of Relativity [2], the perception of the human
being deserves to be integrated. Depending.....

Decision-Making Model Proposed in Use of Extra/ A-shi Acupoints with Traditional Acupoints
Pattern identification is derived from the Yin-Yang theory, which plays a key to the successful treatment outcomes. However, it is hard for
acupuncturists to make a right choice when it comes to use of extra/A-shi acupoints alone, traditional acupoints only, or the combination of these
acupoints in clinic. This model proposed is based on the Yin-Yang and conducted with palpation, which may make patients feel better in diagnosis and
treatment.

Learning from 35 Years of Community Child Health Services in the United Kingdom: Reflections for Community Geriatricians
Fiona Finlay* and Simon Lenton
This article reviews the development of community child health services in the UK over the last 35 years and the role of the community paediatrician and reflects on the issues that had to be addressed to enable the specialty to evolve to the service that it is today. The article considers three areas-clinical practice, local service delivery and the national issues of leadership and policy, all of which may be relevant when developing community geriatric services. Community paediatrics and community geriatrics share many common aspects including increasing numbers of patients, the complexity of
providing care for patients with multiple comorbidities, the issues of consent and confidentiality and the involvement of the extended family in care plans.
