Evaluation of Risk Factors Affecting the Chance of Survival/Death Status among HIV Positive People Under the Anti Retroviral Treatment Program: The Case of Ottona Hospital

Back ground:HIV/AIDS is one of the most dangerous diseases of the developing and developed country. Therefore this research strives to the evaluation of a factor affecting the chance of survival/death status among HIV positive people under the anti-retroviral treatment program, in the cause of Ottona hospital. The objective of this senior research was to evaluate the pattern of HIV/AIDS diseases on the age difference, to determine the effect of HIV/AIDS on sex difference and to see the pattern of the distribution of HIV/AIDS diseases on marital status. Methods:The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics; bar chart, chi-square and binary logistic regression analysis. Throughout the study I have used Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) to analyze the data. Results: The results of statistics showed that among the whole sample (87) patients, 27were died. From the chance of survival/death status among HIV positive people under the anti-retroviral treatment program is affected by marital status, WHO’s Stage, Functional status, CD4, TB. Whereas the other independent variables sex, age and weight have no risk on the chance of survival/death status among HIV positive people under the anti-retroviral treatment program by this research. Conclusion:I conclude that many of the patient’s in this study registered are following up ART program. Following ART is the necessary to control the influence of HIV/AIDS and it necessary to survive for a patient who is HIV/AIDS positive. Keywords: ART, Variables. SPSS, Binary logistic regression, Odd

Survival Analysis for the Recurrence of Cervical Cancer Among Patients Under Follows up Since 2012 to 2015

Background: Cancer is one of the leading causes of death in the world and represents a tremendous burden on patients, families and societies. The aim of the study was intended to identify the determinant risk factors for the recurrence of cervical cancer and model the recurrence rate of cervical cancer for patients who have already got their first treatment. Methods: A Sample of 371 cervical cancer patients who start their treatment in 2012 G.C was included. To identify risk factors of recurrence of cervical cancer and examine the association between the recurrence time with different demographic and medical variables, the proportional hazard Cox regression and the Weibull regression models were applied. Result: Among 371, 83(22.4%) of them experienced recurrence.  The mean recurring survival time was 20.68months. Most recurrence is occurred at the beginning up to the tenth month after entry and then after the recurrence decreases. The cox model is hi(t, xi, )= ho(t) exp

Spontaneous evaluations: similarities and differences between the affect heuristic and implicit attitudes

The affect heuristic and implicit attitudes are two separate concepts that have arisen within different literatures but that have a number of similarities. This paper compares these two constructs with the aim of clarifying exactly what they are and how these relate to one another. By comparing and contrasting the affect heuristic and implicit attitudes we conclude that the ‘affect pool’ of images tagged with feelings referred to within the affect heuristic literature may be equivalent to the construct of implicit attitudes. Further to this, the affect heuristic itself could be considered as a specific sub-type of spontaneous process that is driven by implicit attitudes. We propose that each of the implicit attitude and affect heuristic constructs could be further developed through the examination and comparison of existing literatures surrounding the other. Implications for future research are outlined

Disposable Electrodes for Capacitive Immunosensor

Disposable electrodes were fabricated by coating chromium (5 nm) and gold (200 nm) on glass strips (5.0 mm x 25.4 mm) and used in a label-free immunosensor. Human Serum albumin (HSA) and its antigen (anti-HSA) were used as a model system. Electropolymerization of o-phenylenediamine was used for the immobilization of anti-HSA by covalent binding. A linear relationship was obtained in the range from 1.0 x 10-(14) to 1.0 x 10-(19) M with a limit of detection of 8.0 x 10(-15) M. Each modified electrode can be reused up to 30 times. The developed system was applied for human serum samples and compared to Albumin BCG method
