Abstract:
Literacy has been considered as one of the prime determinants of the socio-economic development. In this context, education has become an important gateway for upgrading the socio-economic status of the people of a region. From a geographical point of view, literacy rate varies from region to region and with the passage of time, it assumes spatio-temporal characteristic. According to the census of India 2011, the overall rate of literacy of the country is 74% with the male literacy rate being 81% against 64.40% of female literacy. So, a large gap can be seen between male-female literacy rate.

Abstract:
The property tax is the major source of own revenues for most city and county governments, yet economists have had very little definitive information to share with policymakers about the burden that it imposes on local citizens. This is because most previous studies of property taxes have used a Suits index analysis which does not allow for any independent variables other than income. We estimate a regression model using current income and various socio-demographic variables in order to take a more fine grained approach.

Abstract:
e18600 Background: Allogeneic stem cell transplant (allo SCT) is a potentially curative therapy for hematological malignancies but is associated with high treatment related non-relapse mortality (NRM). Post-transplant care requires large amount of healthcare and patient resources, imposing higher burden on patients with lower socio-economic status (SES). Adverse health outcomes have been noted in males from lower SES background. We analyzed the effects of social factors on post-transplant survival and NRM in the diverse patient population treated at our institution. Methods: We retrospectively

The present study used nationally representative data from the U.S. Panel Study of Income Dynamics (PSID) merged with census-track data from the American Community Survey (ACS) to model race-ethnic disparities in overweight, obesity, and obesity-related disease among children and adolescents as a function of neighborhood race-ethnic segregation, socio-economic status, household size and structure, family history of obesity, and other important predictors. Results indicate that African American and Hispanic children and adolescents are more likely to suffer from obesity and obesity-related dise

The Gomti River originates in eastern Tripura, India, and flows westward into Bangladesh, supporting a variety of fish species along its course. This study focused on evaluating the fish diversity and the socio-economic status of fishermen in the Gomti River at Cumilla Sadar Upazila, Cumilla, Bangladesh. Researchers identified 37 fish species from 5 orders and 15 families, with most species belonging to the Cypriniformes and Siluriformes orders. According to the IUCN Bangladesh (2015), 9 species were classified as near threatened, 3 as endangered, and 4 as vulnerable. The data included metrics
