Increased use digital services (DFS) is a that might help increase inclusion, which particularly important for developing countries. As income considered critical driver payments, this study aims determine whether there linear relationship between country's measur...

The Vitek GNI card was used to identify 212 isolates of 10 Yersinia species. Identification was correct for 96.3% of the isolates (156 of 162) to the genus level and for 57.4% of the isolates (93 of 162) to the species level for Yersinia spp. listed in the Vitek database. We recommend additional identification methods for isolates assigned to the genus Yersinia by the Vitek system.

We consider transformational programs, i.e. those which transform inputs into outputs, with two levels of confidentiality: high and low. Inspired by Giacobazzi and Mastroeni [GM04], we consider non-interference for the case that the low confidentiality user has only partial knowledge of low inputs and low outputs. We call such a user a weak observer. We first define a form of possibilistic non-...

Consanguineous marriage that defines as a union between biologically related persons has a variety of known deleterious correlations with factors that affect public health within human populations. To investigate the association between the mean of inbreeding coefficient (α) and incidence of leukemia, the present ecological study on 68 countries was carried out. Statistical analysis showed that...

Countries in Asia vary significantly in culture and socioeconomic status. Dialysis costs and reimbursement structures are significant factors in decisions about the rates and modalities of renal replacement therapy. From our survey of Asian nephrologists conducted in 2001, a number of observations can be made. In many developing countries, the annual cost of continuous ambulatory peritoneal dia...

Accurate estimates of the magnitude and spatial distribution of both formal and informal economic activity have many useful applications. Developing alternative methods for making estimates of these economic activities may prove to be useful when other measures are of suspect accuracy or unavailable. This research explores the potential for estimating the formal and informal economy for Mexico ...

Abstract The paper discusses ways to implement in Ukraine one of the important tasks sustainable development strategy - minimization and rational use waste. concept a circular economy is analyzed terms using material energy potential waste on example countries with high Gross National Income (GNI) per capita (Finland) lower middle GNI (Ukraine). features municipal solid management optimization ...

This paper explains and transmits a database summarises the results of Human Rights Measurement Initiative’s (HRMI’s) efforts to more fully integrate 21 Pacific countries (excluding New Zealand Australia) into HRMI’s economic social rights (ESR) metrics. It also explores extent bias in country scores when per capita Gross National Income (GNI) substantially exceeds Domestic Product (GDP) potent...

Nontyphoidal salmonellae are among the most common causes of bacterial gastroenteritis worldwide. They are also notable causes of extraintestinal infections, including bacteremia and vascular infections. Salmonella enterica serotype Choleraesuis is typically associated with invasive infections. We report a patient who had an infected intra-abdominal aortic aneurysm due to an unusually mucoid st...

The idea behind quasirandomness is that many random-like properties of combinatorial objects are equivalent, although they often do not appear to be so on first glance. We begin with the first class to which this notion was applied, and perhaps the most studied of combinatorial objects, graphs. It is easy to show that each of the following properties are true with probability 1 of a uniformly c...
