Nurses are the only frontline professionals of the healthcare team that spend maximum time at the patient bedside. As a part of the nursing process, nurses generate and record pertinent patient information which primarily forms the basis for the decisions made by the healthcare team. Continued commitment to maintaining nursing excellence and quality nursing documentation remains crucial. Quality nursing documentation isa prerequisite for a safe and effective nursing care. Substandard nursing documentation poses risk to evaluation and outcomes of patient care.

Background: During and after pregnancy, many women experience an increase in the inter-recti abdominal muscle distance due to increased uterine volume as well as stretching and thinning of the linea alba. This condition, on average, affects 66% of women and is associated with spinal pain and instability, pelvic floor muscle weakness, abdominal muscle weakness and increase Waist circumference. Objective: To assess the effect of Kinesiotaping (KT) on the Waist circumference in postnatal women.

The therapeutic efficacy of Jurinea dolomiaea (root) was selected to analyse the anti-diabetic and anti-oxidant activities of their crude plant extract. The plant samples were extracted from polar solvents viz. n-hexane, ethyl acetate, methanol and water. Further crude extracts were screened for the presence of phytochemicals such as alkaloids, flavonoids, phenols etc. The quantitative analysis of phenols, flavonoids, alkaloids was performed by spectrophotometrically. The evaluation of anti-oxidant activity was determined by DPPH and ABTS methods.

Aim: Find alternatives for the control of the fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda J. E. Smith (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), in Togo, through mineral fertilization of maize. Methods: A completely random block design of four treatments repeated four times was used at the agronomic station of Tchitchao. Three doses of fertilizer, NPK15-15-15 at 200 kg/ha, NPK20-10-10 at 200 kg/ha and the combination 100 kg/ha NPK15-15-15 +100 kg/ha NPK20-10-10; were tested in comparison with the absolute control from November 2019 to March 2020.

In this paper are described studies of the team of Prince Prof. Momchil Dobrev and Princess Prof. Mariola Garibova proving the truth about depression as a mental disorder based on THEORY OF THE UNIVERSE developed by Prof. Mariola Gariova and Prof. Lord Momtchil Döbrev - Halachev in the Year 2005, Basics of Zero Point Theory based on the fundamental power discovered 1991 by Pro Momtchil DObrev , unity of corpuscular and wave theory, field geometric structure of ether based on structure of light and fourth fundamental force 1991 discoveredby Prof.

In the past few years, there have been significant initiatives to increase low - income people's access tofinancial services, first with microfinance and then moving on to micro-insurance. Insurance businessesincur inherent risks in serving the low-end market due to the complexity of insurance and the fragility ofthe target population. This study identifies these risks, explains the measures used by Nigerian insurance companies to mitigate them, and suggests innovative ways to reduce them.

In this study, the photocatalytic performance of Tb, N co-doped titania nanocomposites was evaluated by degradation of methylene blue. The effects of calcination temperature and N doping amount on the catalytic activity were analyzed. In addition, the photocatalytic reaction kinetics of the nanocomposites was also discussed. The results showed that Tb-N-TiO2 exhibites the highest photocatalytic performance when the calcination temperature is 600 °C and the optimal doping amount of N is 6 %.

The aim of this study was to assess the occurrence of bacterial contaminants in fingernails of food vendors in three selected markets of Gboko Local Government Area, Benue State, Nigeria. A total of thirty (30) nail samples were collected from food vendors, 10 samples from each market using new razor blade for each subject. Standard laboratory procedures were carried out on nail samples including inoculation, cultural characterization, microbial count and biochemical identification of bacteria.

Background and Objectives: Man’s health is determined by some factors which play a leading role in making man what he is, these conditions are social, economic, political, natural, manmade and environmental factors. The main aim of this research was to investigate people’s access to quality water supply and the common bacteria found in the stored drinking water of household in the study area. Methods: To achieve these objectives an Experimental Design (laboratory study) was adopted, water samples were collected from 100 households in target communities.

Aim: The central aim of this research was to investigate people’s practice of sanitation and personal hygiene, prevalence of diarrheal diseases and to suggest ways of reducing the incidence of these diseases in the community. Methods: To achieve these objectives two methods (interview and observation) were used to study the problem so that the strength of each method could conquer the deficiencies of a single method studies. The entire study was conducted between May and July 2017.
