Abstract: Prebiotics are widely used nowadays commercially in poultry industry, they are not digested inside bird gut but are metabolized by specific members of normally inhabitant microflora resulting in many beneficial effects for host body including induce unfevrable condition for pathogenic bacteria and improve overall productivity. Fermentable oligosaccharides considered one of the best widly used prebiotics in poultry production, work through many mechanisms including their neutrient value for host cell, preventing pathogenic bacteria adherence to intestinal cell, stimulation host non-specific immune response and finally improve intestinal histological structure such as crypts length – depth for better digestibility. Recently it was proved that prebiotic's become an antibiotic alternative inorder to produce what's is called green food through enhancing normal inhabitant microflora activities resulting in control of many pathological pathogens either by interference on active side or production of many metabolites producing unfevrable media for those pathogenic bacteria.Our review will give a sight on role of prebiotics on broiler productivity and their way of working inside bird body in order to improve chicken gut health. Also their effect on normal inhabitant microorganism, their effect on bird immunity, together with effect of prebiotics on histological appearance of intestinal tract which will support nutrient digestibility which will reflected on poultry performance and better carcass quality.

Abstract: During 2016 and 2017 seasons, nine materials namely ethrel, gibberellic acid, abscisic acid, manitol, chitosan salicylic acid, silicon, selenium and proline each at 50 ppm were tested for their effects on counteracting the adverse effects of soil and irrigation water salinity on fruiting of Early sweet grapevines grown under Minia region conditions. The vines received three sprays, the first spray at growth start, the second one was performed just after berry setting and the third one was conducted at one month later. Treating the vines with any one of the nine materials namely ethrel, gibberellic acid, abscisic acid, manitol, chitosan salicylic acid, silicon, selenium and proline each at 50 ppm was responsible for enhancing all growth aspects, photosynthetic pigments, N, P, K and Mg, proline, yield and both physical and chemical characteristics of the berries compared to the control treatment. An obvious differences were recorded on the investigated parameters among the nine tested materials. The effectiveness of these materials on controlling salinity could be arranged on follows, in ascending order ethrel, gibberellic acid, abscisic acid, manitol, chitosan, salicylic acid, silicon, selenium and proline. For counteracting the harmful effects of soil and water salinity on growth, vine nutritional status, yield and fruit quality of Early sweet grapevines grown in saline stress, it is recommended to spray the vines three times with proline or selenium acid each at 50 ppm.

Abstract: Background: Asthma is a chronic inflammatory condition of the lung air ways resulting in episodic air flow obstruction and it is a global health problem affecting an estimated 330 million individuals worldwide with a reported prevalence of 5-20% in children aged between 6-15 years. Calcium is the fifth most abundant element in the human body and is essential for life. It has a key role in many physiological processes including skeletal mineralization, muscle contraction, nerve impulse transmission, blood clotting, and hormone secretion. Objective: Assess the calcium status in preschool asthmatic children. Patients and method: It was a cross sectional study, which conducted at Al-Azhar University Hospital, New Damietta City, in the period from April 2017 to April 2018. Results: The prevalence of asthma in our cases was more frequent among rural (60%) than urban (40%) areas. There were no statistically significant difference in total and ionized calcium regarding severity of asthma. There was positive correlation at total calcium regards heart rate and white blood cells. There was positive correlation at ionized calcium regards white blood cells, but there was negative correlation regards potassium. There was positive correlation at eosinophils regards heart rate and white blood cells. Conclusion: Hypocalcaemia appears to be a risk factor for development of asthma in children. Severity of asthma was not related to the serum calcium level.

Abstract: Objectives: To compare the accuracy of both 2D‐transvaginal ultrasound, saline infusion sonography and hysteroscopy with endometrial samples in the detection of endometrial pathology in women with postmenopausal bleeding and to know the most sensitive method in diagnosis. Methods: A prospective, comparative study included 100 patients with postmenopausal bleeding were subjected to transvaginal ultrasound, saline infusion sonography, diagnostic hysteroscopy and curettage followed by the histopathological examination of the specimens. Results: Overall sensitivity rates were 88% for TVS, 91% for SIS and 98% for HS, while overall specificity rates were 67%, 80% and 83%, respectively. HS had PPV of 88% and NPV of 97%, whereas PPV was determined to be 85 versus 87% and NPV was 70 versus 89% for TVS and SIS, respectively. Conclusion: Measurement of endometrial thickness using ultrasound is of limited value. saline infusion sonography is superior to ultrasound & very close to hysteroscopy, especially with intra‐cavitary lesions. Hysteroscopy remains the gold standard for assessment of the uterine cavity, but cannot replace the histopathology.

Abstract: Background: endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) is the mainstay of surgical management for sinus pathology in the modern age. The most common reason for performing ESS is for chronic rhinosinusitis, with or without polyps. However, the extended applications of ESS include closure of CSF leaks, resection of sinonasal tumors, nasolacrimal duct surgery, orbital decompression, and a means of approach to the skull base and intracranial cavity. Aim of the Work: the aim of this study is to compare different types of nasal packing and non- packing after endoscopic sinus surgery. Patients and Methods: in this study, forty patients with sinus pathology presented to police hospital, Nasr city. Patients presented during the period from September 2016 to April 2018, seeking for management of their problem. (40) patients that had been diagnosed before as chronic rhino-sinusitis according to history, symptoms and examination (naked eye and endoscopic) were randomly divided into (4) equal groups: Group (A): 10 patients not packed (control group), Group (B): 10 patients packed with non absorbable tampon, Group (C): 10 patients packed with absorbable gel foam, Group (D): 10 patients packed with absorbable nasopore. Patients examined post-operatively for pain, bleeding, crustaion, and synechia. Results: no significant difference in subjective assessment of pain and headache, crustations and nasal blockage between absorbable nasal pack group and the unpacked one. Also no significant difference between endoscopic assessment of postoperative edema, nasal secretions and presence of granulation tissue in the middle meatus. Conclusion: the use of absorbable nasal pack after functional endoscopic sinus surgery resulted in less bleeding, less crustations, decreasing the incidence of lateralization of middle turbinate and adhesions on long term and better mucosal healing.

Abstract: The occurrence of mycotoxins has become a problem to be discussed, due to its harmfulness to humans, animal’s health and consider an obstacle to the poultry economy. Mycotoxins are toxic metabolites produced by certain species of fungi and may contaminate food. The fungi can grow in incorrectly stored feeds especially which stored under unfavourable environmental conditions (high relative humidity and elevated temperature). Aflatoxins are mainly produced by Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus parasiticus, and B1, B2, G1 and G2 are its best known types. Fumonisin, with its B1, B2 or B3 types, are produced by Fusarium, while ochratoxin A is produced by Penicillium and Aspergillus. The main trichothecenes mycotoxins are T-2 toxin, deoxynivalenol and diacetoxyscirpenol. Zearalenone, produced by different species of Fusarium fungi affects chickens only when they are exposed to extremely high levels of contamination. Generally, immunosuppression, hepatotoxicity and nephrotoxicity as a decrease in performance and production gains are the most observed effects. There are several laboratory methods that can be used for the determination of mycotoxins. In order to control the contamination, it is necessary to adopt proper farming practices which prevent fungi growth.

Abstract: Nigerian brand of Federalism has been described as ‘Pseudo Federalism’ as a result of the fact that its structure and workings negate the principles and tenets of true federalism as practiced by well established and successful democracies in other parts of the world, like United States of America, Australia, Canada, among others. In this effort, we shall examine the concept of federalism with particular reference to the instrument of fiscal federalism which is the bedrock of federal practice and principles. The study of Nigerian federalism has shown that the country since after the collapse of the first Republic has rather operated fiscal Centralism, which is the core tenet and bedrock of Unitary System of Government, making the Nigerian Federalism a ‘Pseudo Federalism’. It is alleged that fiscal centralism has been the instrument with which the Nigerian State, both military and civilian have used to appropriate resources of all the federating units especially the oil bearing communities through various dispossessional laws. This situation has led to the enduing agitations and restiveness for restructuring and resource control. The paper shall be concluded with our well conceived recommendations, for socio-economic and political development of the fledgling democracy in Nigeria.

Abstract: The study examined the impact of Pencom Scheme on civil servants’ productivity in Rivers State, Nigeria. The research design adopted was the survey approach through the use of structured questionnaire. The population of the study consisted of all the servants in Rivers State which is given as 2,794 employees. A sample of 350 staff selected from Rivers State civil servants in Port Harcourt was drawn for the study. The analysis was done through descriptive and inferential statistical tools. The findings among others revealed that majority of the respondents prefer to save outside any pension scheme while others do not know bow to calculate how much they need to save for retirement. The study also found that dependence on budgetary provisions, bribery and corruption, tedious payment procedures, poor staffing, poor record keeping, lack of adequate and timely budgetary provisions and increases in salaries constitute the key limitations to effective and efficient implementation of Contributory Pension Scheme (CPS) in Rivets State. It revealed that the main policy options open to government to ensure efficiency of the CPS in Rivers State included: Maintaining of discipline in pension administration and management, ensuring seamless funding of the retirement scheme, establishing a uniform set of rules, regulations and standards for the administration and payments of retirement benefits and improving the living standard of the elderly people through prompt payment of their retirement benefits. In conclusion, it is clear and evident in the study that: there is positive/significant relationship between the deductible-saving of worker’s salary and the efficiency of workers in Rivers State civil service and there is positive/significant relationship between the deductible- saving of workers’ salary and the efficiency in Rivers State civil service. Therefore, it is recommended that Pension Fund Administrators (PFAs) should be transparent and accountable in their dealings with their clients through regular update of their customers account status.

Abstract: In recent science Nanotechnology is a burning field for the researchers. Nanotechnology deals with the Nanoparticles having a size of 1-100 nm in one dimension used significantly concerning medical chemistry, atomic physics, and all other known fields. Nanoparticles are used immensely due to its small size, orientation, physical properties, which are reportedly shown to change the performance of any other material which is in contact with these tiny particles. These particles can be prepared easily by different chemical, physical, and biological approaches. But the biological approach is the most emerging approach of preparation, because, this method is easier than the other methods, ecofriendly and less time consuming. The Green synthesis was done by using the aqueous solution of Ocimum tenuiflorum (Tulsi) leaf extract and AgNO3. Silver was of a particular interest for this process due to its evocative physical and chemical properties. A fixed ratio of plant extract to metal ion was prepared and the color change was observed which proved the formation of nanoparticles. The nanoparticles were characterized by UV-vis Spectrophotometer and its action on bacterial growth.
