THE MULTIVARIATE REGRESSION MODELS SUGGESTED AS STANDARDISING TOOLS FOR CATEGORISING SOLITARIOUS AND GREGARIOUS GROUPS OF THE MAIN PEST LOCUST, SCHISTOCERCA GREGARIA, PRODUCE REPRODUCIBLE RESULTS

Outbreaks of the desert locust Schistocerca gregaria affect some of the poorest parts of Africa, with devastating outcomes.The key to understanding and dealing with this problematic adaptation to environmental changes is comparing gregarious and solitarious locusts, either in nature or in laboratories.Categorising locusts and detecting changes in t

Abstract This study investigated the experiences of stigma and somatization among middle-aged adults with mental health issues.Using frameworks of public stigma, self-stigma, affiliate stigma, and somatization (both presenting and functional), the study explores how individuals navigate the stigma associated with mental health.Interviews were condu

Use of chlorhexidine in clinical settings has led to concerns that repeated exposure of bacteria to sub-lethal doses of chlorhexidine might result in chlorhexidine resistance and cross resistance with other cationic antimicrobials including colistin, endogenous antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) and their mimics, ceragenins.We have previously shown that

Background and Aim: Exercise aerobic is associated with increased creatine kinase and blood lactate immediately after exercise, leading to increased muscle damage and undesirable changes in many cellular markers including serum creatine kinase.In such situations, consuming nutrients and supplements such as coenzyme Q10 may prevent metabolic stress

In this paper different scenarios were compared for the numerical modeling of electromagnetic wave exposure to beamforming antennas.These scenarios range from the simplest Womens dress-shirts (using an average radiation pattern) to an almost realistic one (MU-MIMO beamforming taking into account user locations) with intermediate.The results underli
