Syphilis is an infectious disease caused by treponema pallidum. still a health problem in the world and even syphilis major cause of perinatal morbidity mortality many countries. infects around 12 million people worldwide every year. The prevalence female population sex workers (WPS) infected with HIV 16.7 percent while WPS that not 9.47 percent. purpose this study was to analyze effect number ...

Agricultural pesticide exposure has potential adverse health effects for farmworkers that may be reduced by pesticide protective behaviors (PPBs). The Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) Worker Protection Standard (WPS) requires PPBs be taught to farmworkers prior to field work. Studies to date have not utilized observational methods to evaluate the degree to which PPBs are practiced by Lat...

Compliance with U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) composition-based labeling standards often has been regarded as evidence of the shelf stability of ready-to-eat (RTE) meats. However, the USDA now requires further proof of shelf stability. Our previous work included development of equations for predicting the probability of Staphylococcus aureus growth based on the pH and a(w) of an RTE pro...

In standard quantum theory the momentum and position operators are on equal footing and wave functions in momentum and coordinate representations are related to each other by the Fourier transform. However, while the momentum operator is unambiguously defined as one of the operators of the symmetry algebra, the position operator has a physical meaning only in semiclassical approximation and sho...

Many efficient algorithms and architectures have been proposed for the design of low complexity fir filter. In order to design the filter a bit-parallel multiple constant multiplication (MCM) operation which dominates the complexity of the digital signal processing ,where the most importance is given to digitserial MCM design which also offers the low complexity MCM operations instead of increa...

OBJECTIVE Although extensive work has been done on cigarette smoking and its effects on pulmonary function, there are limited number of studies on water-pipe smoking. The effects of water-pipe smoking on health are not widely investigated. The aim of this study was to determine the effects of water-pipe smoking on pulmonary permeability. METHODS Technetium-99m DTPA inhalation scintigraphy was...

Distributed geospatial data and services can be used to form Spatial Data Infrastructures (SDI). Current technological developments enable SDI to process large amounts of geospatial data. In this context, Web Processing Services (WPS) can be used as an open interface standard for accessing and executing geospatial processes. Since many SDI are based on Service-Oriented Architectures (SOA), the ...

Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) is a well-known technique to improve the discrimination among classes or reduce the dimensionality with minimum loss of discrimination. It is generally used as a part of the front-end of speech recognizer with the classes defined on phone or subphone level. LDA with subphone-level classes (such as tied states or individual Gaussian densities) shows superior pe...

Latar Belakang: Salah satu populasi yang berisiko tinggi HIV/AIDS adalah Wanita Pekerja Seks (WPS) dikarenakan perilaku seks tidak aman yakni berganti-ganti pasangan. Penggunaan kondom merupakan salah inisiatif untuk mencegah penularan HIV/AIDS, dan penggunaannya dapat dipengaruhi oleh berbagai variabel. Tujuan: Menganalisis faktor berhubungan dengan penggunaan pada WPS sebagai upaya pencegahan...
