Abstract:
G. K. Gwassa states that research institutes in Africa constitute one critical factor of development in that they have to undertake the twin problems of research which involve the search for and the discovery of the process of social development. They also undertake purposeful functional research by (especially) studying and analyzing internal economic and social conditions in order to determine the characteristics, variables, and criteria for rational economic and political actions within a given country. These have become the functions of many social science research institutions in sub-Saha

The article aims to show in the first works of St. Augustine the convergence of philosophy and wisdom on Trinitarian knowledge, and how the latter, despite the small number of references, occupies an important place among the theoretical objectives of the neoconvert.

This implies an attentive analysis of the relationship between faith and reason, as it appears in the Dialogues, and therefore of the relationship between Christian faith and Neoplatonic philosophy, from the perspective of

The usual methods of conduct and analysis of randomised controlled trials implicitly assume that the taking of measurements has no effect on research participants. Changes in measured behaviour and other outcomes due to measurement reactivity may therefore introduce bias in otherwise well-conducted randomised controlled trials, yielding incorrect estimates of intervention effects, including underestimates.

Abstract Objectives Craniovertebral junction (CVJ) is a unique, mobile and complicated component of our spine which necessitates specific study pertaining to its structure as well as pathologies. This study aims to report the normative data detailing the CVJ anatomy among the rural population of Central India which would help us in understanding the joint dynamics. Materials and Methods A retrospective observational study was undertaken in the Department of Neurosurgery and Radiology, Mahatma Gandhi Institute of Medical Sciences, Sewagram, Maharashtra, from December 2018 to May 2019.

Abstract:
Background: Bleeding time is a laboratory test to assess the platelet function. It is dependent on various factors like function of platelets and pathway of coagulation. Clotting time is the time required for a sample of blood to clot in vitro under standard conditions. It is known from previous studies that there is a difference in the bleeding time and clotting time among males and females. The exact reasons for such differences have been postulated, but are insufficient. Therefore the aim of this study is to study and compare the gender differences in bleeding time and clotting time in youn

Red wheat, compared to white wheat, may reduce CC risk, as measured by reductions in colonic preneoplastic lesions (aberrant crypt foci; ACF). Rodent studies typically use a purified diet (AIN-93G) as the background diet, but due to its optimal nutritional composition, it may mask some effects of chemopreventive bioactives.
