Background/Objectives: Current research has identified direct victimization at home as one of the main predictors child-to-parent violence (CPV). However, mechanisms involved in this relationship have not been studied. Thus, we first analyze differences between CPV offenders and who committed other types offenses, well two offenders: specialists (those only CPV) generalists addition to offenses...

Abstract This paper draws upon the first national study of local responses to child-to-parent violence (CPV) in England and Wales examine emergent representations CPV consider their implications for children families. Central amongst these is Government’s depiction as a form ‘domestic abuse’. For many individuals organizations, that term synonymous with intimate partner violence. We contend res...

We report for the first time a successful fabrication and operation of an InAs/GaAs quantum dot based intermediate band solar cell concentrator photovoltaic (QD-IBSC-CPV) module to the IEC62108 standard with recorded power conversion efficiency of 15.3%. Combining the measured experimental results at Underwriters Laboratory (UL®) licensed testing laboratory with theoretical simulations, we conf...

Some integral identities for the fttndamental solutions of potential and elastostatic problems are established in this paper. With these identities it is shown that the conventional boundary integral equation (BIE), which is generally expressed in terms of singularintegrals in the sense of the Cauchy principal value (CPV), and the derivative BIE, which is similarly expressed in terms of hypersi...

Design-pattern driven ontology construction, whether manual or (partially) automated, relies on the availability of curated repositories of Ontology Design Patterns (ODPs) adequately characterized. In order to consistently apply a given ODP, not only it is important to characterize it in full, but also examine its alignment or deviation to other relevant ODPs in relation to it. Otherwise, possi...

Canine parvovirus (CPV) enteritis is a highly contagious enteric disease of young dogs. Limited studies have been done in Zambia to investigate the prevalence of CPV in dogs. Blood was collected from dogs from three veterinary clinics (clinic samples, n = 174) and one township of Lusaka (field samples, n = 56). Each dog's age, sex, breed, and vaccination status were recorded. A haemagglutinatio...

A growing body of literature has been published indicating that the current practice of annual vaccination of dogs may not be beneficial and in some cases may even be harmful. A number of publications have proposed assessing the immune status of dogs before annual revaccination. In this study the usefulness of a commercially available dot-ELISA kit was evaluated to determine the duration IgG an...

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the central effects of the phytotherapeutic product-CPV (dry extract of Crataegus oxyacantha, Passiflora incarnata and Valeriana officinalis) in animals models. In order to investigate the psychopharmacological profile of CPV extract, an evaluation toward anxiolytic effect of this extract on the elevated plus-maze (EPM) was carried out. Other effects...

Parvovirus enteritis is one of canine dangerous diseases which poses a particular concern for practitioners and dog owners around the world. type 2 (CPV-2) can affect dogs at any age, but puppies between 6 weeks months old are most susceptible to infection. One main biological properties parvovirus its continuous genetic evolution, led replacement original virus by new antigenic variants – CPV-...
