The kidney disturbances pathogenesis from COVID-19 is not well understood yet. A recent study showed abnormal kidney function was related to death in patients with COVID-19. It is suggested that immunopathology has an important role in this mechanism of kidney problems. Recent works of literature show no well-established therapy for the disease and supportive strategies were the best we can do. Many experimental drugs were investigated, and the most appropriate strategy was to prevent the worsening of outbreak and infection control. The investigational drugs give us some hope to cure the disease although it is still a long way to go. Kidney involvement in COVID-19 should be considered to get the best treatment in the population. Further study is needed to get better mechanisms, management, and prevention of COVID-19, especially in kidney diseases.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 80 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -It is the conventional wisdom of the academic community to conclude that the U.S. missionaries¿ stance toward Japanese imperialism during the Japanese occupation of Korea (1910-1945) did not stand on either side of Korea or Japan, but exposed their non-political inclinations by maintaining neutrality. This conventional wisdom is not wrong, but it is not entirely true. Almost all U.S. missionaries maintained apolitical attitude that did not intervene into Koreäs political situation. The purpose of this study is to find out the nature of Japanese imperialism by studying an American missionary who resisted Japanese imperialism in his own political way and to enrich the discussions on non-political stance of missionaries.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 76 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -In this book states that due to special thermal cyclic treatment (TCT) performed in the range of relatively low annealing temperatures it is possible to modify morphology and space distribution of carbides phase, thus, to eliminate or considerably reduce carbide inhomogeneity in tool steels. As a result there is a structural condition of metal built up, with optimum allocation of carbides by morphology and sizes that favorably influences during further hot and cold plastic deformation, hardening heat treatment.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 52 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Children spend on average 2.4 hours per day in front of a screen during a school week and 3 hours per day over the weekend. The WHO warns that children under the age of two should not use electronic devices with screens. In this publication we will present clinical examples from mental health practice. We would like to raise awareness about the dangers of the internet and mobile phones to use at a young age and point to the lack of rules regarding their use in the family. It is important to raise greater awareness about the dangers of internet use to minimize the exposure of young children and adolescents to asocial and inappropriate content which may be detrimental to their health and, in some instances, life-threatening. The technology and its applications are undeniably important in the education and development of young people, but the risks associated with their use must be pointed out, emphasizing family cohesion as a factor that may reduce exposure to hazardous situations. The negative impact can be prevented by carefully introducing digital technology to children, controlling the use and setting good examples of the appropriate use of these technologies by adults.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 52 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Scientists of the ZNU Chemistry Department have developed a new software called QuS (abbrv. for QSAR Server), that is designed to integrate and coordinate the work of other software that performs certain stages of QSAR-analysis. QuS is defined by the application of the concept of in silico latest chemometric technologies for drug search. The formation of databases plays a vital role in revealling the laws of SAR / QSAR. The database is a new and necessary connection in solving the problem of predicting the biological activity and toxicity of chemical compounds. Various quinoline derivatives are used as synthons in organic synthesis and molecular design, as well as effective biologically active compounds. In addition, for a significant number of biologically active derivatives of nitrogen-containing heterocycles, there are limited or no systematic studies of 'structure-activity-toxicity', which was the main reason for studying the quinoline derivatives' databases, finding descriptors of their structure which are important for QSAR models as systems for assessing the biological effects of compounds and obtaining promising lead-compoundsBooks on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 72 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Sometimes in real life cases, it is very difficult to obtain samples from a continuous distribution. The observed values are generally discrete due to the fact that they are not measured in continuum. In some cases, it may be possible to measure the observations via a continuous scale, however, they may be recorded in a manner in which a discrete model seems more suitable. Consequently, the discrete models are appearing quite frequently in applied Fields and have attracted the attention of many researchers in the applied fields. An investigator will be vitally interested to know if their model fits the requirements of a particular distribution. To this end, one will depend on the characterizations of this distribution which provide conditions under which the underlying distribution is indeed that particular distribution. This monograph is the continuation of our (2016) monograph which presents further characterizations of many recently introduced important discrete distributions.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 92 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Religious-based violence is provoking worldwide anxiety and terror. States around the world, especially in Middle East and North Africa and Sub-Saharan Africa, are facing violent extremism. Violent extremism has become a key security issue and is perceived as an existential security threat to states and individuals. That is the case of Cameroon, Niger, Nigeria and Chad in the Chad Basin area. The Lake Chad basin is facing a major conflict due to the threats of Boko Haram, which claims radical Islam, and identifies with the ISL. This movement appears a threat to the stability of States and the security of a part of their population. Thus, the management of the conflict and the stabilization of the region is about containing the insurgency by convincing the population with an adoption of exceptional measures and a military option discourse. But after three years of military operation conducted through the Multinational Joint Task Force (MNJTF), the conflict is not ending and needs a new approach. This work analyze the choice made by the countries in the Lake Chad Basin for the resolution of the conflict in an environment of security and development challenges.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 56 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Despite the current acceleration of human globalization and mobility, and a growing de-territorialization in the production of subjectivities, the most recent trend of legal immigration administration in Europe has been the implementation and strengthening of national language and civic integration courses and tests for all types of non European adult migrant newcomers. After a mandatory, state-financed standard educational path lasting up to the length of one year, the candidates to immigration have to attend to classes scrupulously and pass the tests successfully in order to receive the right to durably settle on a given national territory, thus attesting of their knowledge of the official idiom and nationally defined cultural norms, values, history, symbols and political institutions. Drawing from an ethnographic immersion in a german integration school named 'Heimat e.V.', this anthropological analysis retraces the genealogy and studies the anatomy of such a dispositiv, before restituting the elements of a subjective resistance shaped by adult migrants confronted to it, when the institutionalization of integration processes could turn into the production of strangers.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 108 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -We all know that lead content is considered to be toxic and hazardous to us. Usage of pigments containing lead in printing inks is widespread and is a common practice. The coloured pages of almost all newspapers and magazines contain high levels of lead. Even small amount of lead in the body is harmful. So there arises a need for having lead-free pigments in inks. Nanoparticles have more amplified properties than bulk solids. BY making use of these properties in the ink industry we can make inks having more enhanced properties than that are available today. This book explains the preparation of Cobalt Ferrite and Barium Titanate nano inks which are lead free and cost-effective.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 56 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -In this book, the behavior of two-layer soil (Sand-silt Soil) that were reinforced with some geosynthetics is investigated. Large-scale California Bearing Ratio tests are to be performed by some scientists on unreinforced and reinforced samples with different geosynthetics. The results show that depending on the characteristics of the geosynthetics, the inclusion of these materials may increase or decrease the shear strength parameters of the interface of two-layered soils. It implies that the geosynthetic-reinforced soils in the sub-base layer of roads are so sensitive to the characteristics of geosynthetics and will perform better than non-reinforced soils and consequently the load-carrying capacity of the basement will improve only if the appropriate geosynthetics are used. However, geosynthetics show more reinforcement efficiency under higher vertical stresses. Increasing the relative density of the sub-grade would also cause the geosynthetic (geotextiles and geonets) reinforcement to be more effective.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 68 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -This study examined the productivity of the smallholders¿ farms in bread wheat based farming system of Hetosa plain in Arsi Zone of Oromiya regional state in southeastern part of Ethiopia. The study was based on the cross sectional data collected from 26 farmers selected using simple random sampling method in 2017. The wheat production efficiencies were estimated using stochastic frontier production function in which inefficiency is assumed as a function of different productivity factors. The general low level of efficiency of farmers is an indication of high potential that exists to improve the productivity of farmers through improving the efficiency level of those less efficient farmers. More farmers operate at lower efficiency level for wheat relative to barley. Whereas the opposite is true for higher efficiency level indicating that more farmers' approached the frontier for barley production relative to wheat production; possibly due to the traditional nature of the barley technologies. In the analysis of causes of inefficiencies, it has been found that average education level and proximity to development center are important factors that affect the production inefficiency.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 68 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Study about Hookah at Koilandy: 'the project' that has been completed here, and in result I have realised certain factors of inadequate scenario of subject. In the present days, Hookah business is facing a very serious crisis. I am being studious on the subject, preferred to choose Hookah business as subject for my project. To begin, I had visited three leading Hookah manufacturing factories out of five of this nature located and functioning in Koilandy Taluk. As part of my visit, I interacted with several workers of various caliber, including Mr. Ramdas who is President of the concern society. My keen observation reveals following conclusions: few foreign countries have offered their demand for hookah and supply could not be materialised, since production processes were stuck due to various adverse reasons. Lack of initiation from the part of government machinery as well slackness of relevant association is solely responsible for it. In view to maintain the factories dynamically live and healthy, the government would have taken the major part of the share of the company and also by exploring fresh job opportunites.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 56 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -This book evaluates this controversial work. His breakdown of society as social structure, polity and culture is discussed. And it considers the idea of social identity and how Bourdieu sees this developed and maintained with the ideas of social capital and cultural capital. In The Cultural Contradictions of Capitalism (1976), Bell contends that the developments of twentieth-century capitalism have led to a contradiction between the cultural sphere of consumerist instant self-gratification and the demand, in the economic sphere, for hard-working, productive individuals. Bell articulates this through his 'three realms' methodology, which divides modern society into the cultural, economic, and political spheres. Bell's concern is that, with the growth of the welfare state throughout the post-war years, the population is beginning to demand that the state fulfill the hedonistic desires that the cultural sphere is encouraging. That dovetails with the ongoing requirement for the state to maintain the kind of strong economic environment conducive to continual growth.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 60 pp. Englisch.

So far, we create our data sheet and analyze it by using several econometrics tests to clear the regression from any mistakes and achieve the goal in which it's a complete multiple regression formula that contains all the variables that affect the public debt.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 68 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -A high efficiency, low profile and high step-up dc-dc converter is proposed for low dc voltage renewable energy system. Generally, the power source such as photovoltaic array and the fuel cell stack have low voltage output because of that a high voltage step-up converter is required to boost the voltage much higher than the voltage level for front-end application. The efficiency and voltage gain of conventional dc-dc converter are limit due to the parasitic components. In order to solve the above mentioned problem, the proposed converter is based on active clamp technique and the converter is the combination of a forward converter and a flyback converter. Multiple secondary windings can be employed for low profile design and help to reduce high transformer copper loss and high output rectifiers conduction losses. The proposed converter is confirmed with experiments on 250-W prototype and the maximum efficiency of 94% was measured at full load.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 72 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -On May 25, 1969, several young officers calling themselves the Free Officers Movement seized power in Sudan and started the Nimeiri era in the history of Sudan. At the conspiracy's core were nine officers led by Colonel Jaafar an Nimeiri, who had been implicated in plots against the Abboud regime. Nimeiri's coup preempted plots by other groups, most of which involved army factions supported by the Sudanese Communist Party (SCP), Arab nationalists, or conservative religious groups. He justified the coup on the grounds that civilian politicians had paralyzed the decision making process, had failed to deal with the country's economic and regional problems, and had left Sudan without a permanent constitution. The coup leaders, joined by Babiker Awadallah, the former chief justice, who had been privy to the coup, constituted themselves as the ten-member Revolutionary Command Council (RCC), which possessed collective executive authority under Nimeiri's chairmanship. On assuming control, the RCC proclaimed the establishment of a 'democratic republic' dedicated to advancing independent 'Sudanese socialism'.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 56 pp. Englisch.
