Indeed the said judgement has recognized the Cameroon's sovereignty over Bakassi peninsula after a border dispute with Nigeria, which led to a peaceful resolution before the International Court of Justice (ICJ). However rather than to definitively restore the peace, this peaceful settlement on an interstate dispute led to an internal conflict in Anglophone regions of Cameroon. To carry out this study, we used the qualitative method combined to a constructivist approach to analyse the ongoing crisis. The products of our work come from books, articles, newspapers, videos and reports on this issue. At the end of our research, we observe that economic stake over the Bakassi peninsula is one of the catalyst which led to the outbreak of the Anglophone crisis, however under control in the past, between Anglophone community and the Government. This crisis, started by a social claim, has gradually politicized and finally transformed in an armed conflict motivated by secessionist claims. In this respect, its resolution of this crisis should integrate actions both at domestic as well international levels, through the promotion of a peaceful settlement organized around, not only a frank dialogue and reciprocal concessions among the different belligerents, but especially in view to guarantee policies for a fair and equitable redistribution of the country's wealth.CHAPTER ONE: GENERAL INTRODUCTION 1 1.1.

    The main purpose of the study was to evaluate the patterns of the developed ground reaction forces in the two – legged countermovement jumping, performed by persons affected by tetraparesis with ataxia, tetraparesis with athetosis, tetraparesis with spasticity, diplegia with spasticity, right and left hemiplegia and, finally, right and left hemiparesis. After twenty subjects jumped on the surface of a force plate analysis of the ground reaction force – time trend took place. The obtained results confirm the accomplishment of the biomechanical principle of the initial force as in the case of persons not affected by neurological disorders. Finally the calculated ratio between the breaking impulse and the acceleration impulse is very near to optimum values (.3 to .4)

    Get PDF
    En este trabajo de investigación se ha analizado la manipulación manual de cargas utilizando los sistemas electrónicos y tecnologías desarrolladas en el Laboratorio de Biomecánica del Movimiento Humano y Ergonomía de la Universidad de Extremadura que han permitido medir la geometría del movimiento y el nivel de esfuerzo que suponen estas tareas. Los resultados obtenidos corroboran todas las hipótesis establecidas respecto de la intervención de los músculos analizados y su relación con el problema de control de los movimientos Además los resultados sugieren una discusión científica sobre la fiabilidad del protocolo NIOSH que tendría que tener en cuenta la calidad de control postural en la manipulación manual de cargas y de la técnica en la determinación del nivel de riesgo de padecer problemas músculo – esqueléticos. Concluyendo se puede afirmar que en Extremadura se dispone de una metodología científica altamente fiable que permite analizar y evaluar tareas que incluyen manipulación manual de cargas que puede ser de mucha utilidad tanto para la prevención de riesgos laborales como para la formación de los prevencionistas

    A methodological proposal and tool support for the HL7 standards compliance in the development of health information systems

    Get PDF
    Health information systems are increasingly complex, and their development is presented as a challenge for software development companies offering quality, maintainable and interoperable products. HL7 (Health level 7) International, an international non-profit organization, defines and maintains standards related to health information systems. However, the modelling languages proposed by HL7 are far removed from standard languages and widely known by software engineers. In these lines, NDT is a software development methodology that has a support tool called NDT-Suite and is based, on the one hand, on the paradigm of model-driven engineering and, on the other hand, in UML that is a widely recognized standard language. This paper proposes an extension of the NDT methodology called MoDHE (Model Driven Health Engineering) to offer software engineers a methodology capable of modelling health information systems conforming to HL7 using UML domain models

    Forty-seven castrated male Duroc x (Landrace x Large White) pigs were used to determine fatty acids compositions from different adipose tissues. The outer subcutaneous backfat layer had a lower proportion of saturated and higher monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids than the inner laver. Liver fat had the highest proportion of poiyunsaturated fatty acids. Intramuscular fat followed by subcutaneous backfat had the highest monounsaturation indexes. Moreover, omental and hepatic fat had the highest amount of n-3 fatty acids. In conclusion, the fatty acid profile was depended on fat location, with intramuscular and outer backfat the most beneficial from the point of view of nutrition and health

    The Cost of Accumulating Evidence in Perceptual Decision Making

    Get PDF
    Decision making often involves the accumulation of information over time, but acquiring information typically comes at a cost. Little is known about the cost incurred by animals and humans for acquiring additional information from sensory variables due, for instance, to attentional efforts. Through a novel integration of diffusion models and dynamic programming, we were able to estimate the cost of making additional observations per unit of time from two monkeys and six humans in a reaction time (RT) random-dot motion discrimination task. Surprisingly, we find that the cost is neither zero nor constant over time, but for the animals and humans features a brief period in which it is constant but increases thereafter. In addition, we show that our theory accurately matches the observed reaction time distributions for each stimulus condition, the time-dependent choice accuracy both conditional on stimulus strength and independent of it, and choice accuracy and mean reaction times as a function of stimulus strength. The theory also correctly predicts that urgency signals in the brain should be independent of the difficulty, or stimulus strength, at each trial
