Abstract:
Prions are infectious proteins that cause disease in variable
species of animals, including human being. The normal, cellular
protein PrP (PrPC) is converted into PrPSc through a post
translational process during which it acquires a high β-sheet
content which made the protein resistant to degradation by
proteinase K due to its PrP 27-30 domain that increase its
half-life to >48 hours as compared to that of the normal 3-6
hours, its stay leads to self-propagation and toxicity. The
disease pathology is associated with many disturbances mainly in
central nervous system which resulted from increased oxidative
stress and mitochondrial dysfunction, disturbance of iron
metabolism, alteration of calcium metabolism, increases of
inflammatory cytokines, chemokine’s and nuclear factor-kappa β
activity. The entire process creates a spongy hole inside the
nervous system which leads to condition called encephalopathy.
The agent cause scrapie in sheep and goats, bovine spongiform
encephalopathy (BSE) in cattle (known as mad cow disease),
transmissible mink encephalopathy (TME) in mink, chronic wasting
disease (CWD) in white tailed deer, elk, mule deer and moose,
feline spongiform encephalopathy in cats, exotic ungulate
encephalopathy (EUE) in Nyala and Oryx. In humans it causes
Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) and its varieties,
Gerstmann-Sträussler-Scheinker syndrome (GSS), fatal familial
insomnia (sFI) and Kuru. Prion diseases have zoonotic and
interspecies transmission. Banning Meat bone meal and culling
infected animals are recommended.

Abstract:
Background:
Jumper's knee also called patellar tendinopathy is a painful
condition of the knee caused by small tears in the patellar
tendon that mainly occurs in sports requiring strenuous jumping.
Purpose: This study was conducted to investigate and
compare the prevalence of jumper’s knee among different ages of
volleyball players in Cairo, Egypt. Methods: Cross
sectional survey study was conducted on 861 volleyball players
from 18 clubs in Cairo. All participants signed a consent form
prior to participation in the study. The participants were the
tallest players in the court and do repeated vertical jumps.
They were assigned into two groups based on their gender and
then each group was divided into 5 groups according to their
age. Weight, height and VISA score was recorded for each
participant, Results: it showed that in male volleyball
players, the mean value of age was 18.96 ±4.58 year and mean
value of BMI was 22.32 ±1.98 kg/m2. while In female
volleyball players, the mean value of age was 17.21 ±3.73 year,
and mean value of BMI was 21.68±1.89kg/m2 The
statistical analysis by Chi-square test revealed that there were
significant differences in incidence of jumper’s knee among
groups of male volleyball players (P=0.0001; P<0.05) and female
volleyball players (P=0.0001; P<0.05). Conclusion: There
were statistically significant differences in the prevalence of
jumper’s knee among different ages of volleyball players in
Cairo, Egypt.

Abstract:
Spatial
variability in soils is inherent and dependent on several
environmental factors. The degree of variability also impacts
great on effectiveness of the use and management of agricultural
fields. The morphological and physical properties of soils in
Ekwusigo area of Anambra State were assessed in ten minipedons
sampled at four predetermined depths of 0 cm – 20 cm, 20 cm – 40
cm, 40 cm – 60 cm and 60 cm – 80 cm and three representative
profiles sampled according to genetic horizons. Both undisturbed
core samples as well as disturbed bulk samples were collected
from the minipedons and soil profiles and taken to the
laboratory for physical analysis. K.sat with a range of (23.01
cm/hr – 98.91 cm/hr) was the most variable soil property in the
area with CV value of 294.8 (minipedon 2) while sand content
(77.20 % – 95.20 %) was the least variable with CV value of 1.8
(minipedon 9). The order of degree of variability of the various
soil properties in the area was K.sat > clay > silt > bulk
density > porosity > Sand, while the graduation in variability
of the minipedons was in the order MP 2 > MP 10 > MP 8 > MP 3 >
MP 9 > MP 4 > MP 6 > MP7 > MP 1 > MP 5. Most
soil nutrients significantly increased down the slope due to
translocation of materials and its deposition at the foot slope.

and unified filed theory based on bipolar particle

Technical Campus, Tehran University, Tehran, Iran
z.kefayati0@gmail.com
Abstract:
In this theory, all subatomic
particles are formed from a magnetic bipolar particle. In fact,
this particle is the smallest magnet in the universe. In this
article, we describe the structure of quarks, anti-quarks,
leptons, photons… and dark matter. This small magnetic particle
is called particle “KFA”. We even describe the place where
antimatter exists and why matter and antimatter do not destroy
each other.

Abstract:
Daily solar radiation reaching
the land surface is one of the most common parameters used in
modeling and projects of hydrology, agriculture, meteorology and
climatology. Most estimating models of radiation reaching the
land surface using satellite data are based on the land surface
temperature. In this study, the accuracy of solar radiation
estimation was studied using artificial neural network models
and M5 model tree, with the inputs including land surface
temperature and water vapor of MODIS sensor in combination with
extraterrestrial radiation. The solar radiation data were
collected from six stations in three consecutive years (2003-
2005) and used as actual data. The stations include (Bojnoord,
Isfahan, Hamadan, Kermanshah, Khurobiabanak and Tabriz). Based
on the results, the neural network model of Khurobiabanak
station with R 2 0 /97and Hamadan station with the R
2 0/71, have the highest and the lowest accuracy in
estimating solar radiation, respectively. The results showed
that both models estimate the radiation reaching the Earth's
surface with good accuracy and provide almost identical results.

Abstract:
A cross sectional study was carried out in pawe special district
of Benishangul Gumuz Regional
State, North West Ethiopia from
January to March 2019 to determine the prevalence of
trypanosomosis, prevailing species of
trypanosomes, associated risks and its vector density. Blood
samples collected from 384
randomly sampled cattle (Bos indicus) was examined using
parasitological (buffy coat technique) and
haematological (Measurement of packed
cell volume) procedures. An overall, 10.94% (42/384)
prevalence of
trypanosomosis was recorded. The
infection was caused mainly by Trypanosoma congolense
31/42 (73.8%), Trypanosoma vivax
11/42 (26.8%),
and the infection rate was
statistically significant among
different trypanosome species (P<0.05). Mean packed cell volume
(PCV) value of infected animals
was lower (19.4 ± 1.3) than non-infected animals (22.03 ± 1.73)
and the variation was found
statistically significant (P<0.05). Similarly, higher prevalence
(17.8%) of trypanosomosis infection was
registered in animals with poor body
condition when compared to animals with medium (13.46%)
and good
(4.76%)
body condition and the difference was
statistically significant (P<0.05). In contrast, prevalence of
trypanosomosis was not statistically
significant among study sites, age categories and sex groups of
study animals (P> 0.05).
Glossina morsitans submorsitans, and Glossina tachinoedes were
the tsetse fly species caught
and their mean apparent density measured as flies/trap/day was
0.78. In addition, other
mechanical vectors such as stomoxy and tabanids were captured
with flies/trap/day 0.12 and 0.8,
respectively. To wrap up, the result
of the current finding reveals moderately high prevalence of
trypanosomosis in the study district
signaling the need for strategic and participatory approach to
control the vector and to
minimize the impact of the disease in the study district.
