The word diabetes has been derived from two words, diabetes (Greek) which means ‘siphon through’ and mellitus (Latin)which means ‘sweetened with honey’. Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder, i.e. it is caused due to the malfunctioning of the pancreas, which is responsible for the production of the hormone insulin. Diabetes mellitus has the world’s largest silent killer. India has been projected by WHO as the country with the fastest growing population of Diabetic patients. It is estimated that between 1995 to 2025 diabetic patients in India will increase by 195%.

The Brazilian legislation for organic compost type A allows a maximum of 50% moisture for commercialization. Thus, the use of dryers may be an alternative to reach this percentage. The objective of this work was to evaluate the effect of the continuous dryer on physical-chemical, microbiological and phytotoxicological characteristics of organic compost. The compost was elaborated with sludge from a poultry and pork slaughtering treatment plant and sawdust. Continuous counter-flow cylindrical dryer was used, with collections before, during and after the dryer.

In modern era a print server is a device that connects printers to client computers over a network. Print server supports a variety of industry standard or proprietary printing protocols including Internet printing protocol, line printer daemon protocol, Netware, NetBIOS/NetBEUI or Jet Direct. When the clients are in network and the printer does not support the network connection then we use the Print Server software where all the clients are connected to a single server and the server is connected to the printer. Print server is to build upon the windows application.

Foreign investment, specifically foreign direct investment (FDI), has found a special status in many countries around the world. The third world countries, including developed and developing countries make extensive efforts to lead these financial resources toward their own countries.

Haricot beans (Phaseolus vulgaris l.) is among the food crop grown in Cameroon for food security due to its high nutritional value and income earning abilities. Moreover, it is also a tradable as its value chain extend from Cameroon to neighboring countries thus an important foreign exchange earner. However, most rural farmers have not exploited its full potential due to some supply side constraints such as production and agronomic shortcomings as well as demand side constraints such as suboptimal markets and sales conditions.

Climate change stimulates food shortages, especially in developing countries and sub Saharan Africa in particular, where agriculture is largely subsistence. That gender affects access to resources is a truism. However, how gender influences food shortages in climate-dependent, rain-fed agricultural systems is still largely unknown. We explore gender-related vulnerability to food shortages amongst 320 subsistence agricultural households in Cameroon, using both quantitative and qualitative methods.

The present investigation was carried out to study the effect of different growth regulators on propagation of China rose (Hibiscus rosa-sinensis) in subtropical zone of West Bengal under natural ventilated polyhouse at Jaguli farm of Bidhan Chandra Krishi Viswavidyalaya, Mohanpur, Nadia, West Bengal, during 2014-15 and 2015-16. All parameters were significantly varied among the treatments during investigation (T1:IAA @1000ppm, T2:IAA@2000ppm, T3:IAA @3000ppm, T4:IBA @1000ppm, T5:IBA @2000ppm, T6:IBA @3000ppm, T7:NAA @1000ppm, T8:NAA @2000ppm, T9:NAA @3000ppm, T10:Rootex, T11:Control ).

The aim of the study was to evaluate the influence of photopolymerization,time of composite resin of the sorption and solubility properties of the material. It was used the Filtek, Z350 XT resin, shade A2B, the study was evaluated in four different timing of light curing (10s, 20s, 40s and 60s). Five resin discs were made per group, of 8mm x 1mm and prepared in accordance with ISO 4049. The water sorption and solubility were calculated using the formulas according to ISO 4049.

For unilateral cervical dislocation, skull traction is one of the standard first treatment protocol and most effective treatments, but it is usually unsuccessful for the bilateral cervical dislocation because of the more tightly locked articular processes. In this situation, we have to unlock the vertebra joints by a posterior cervical approach operation, then roll the patient over and take another operation of fusion and fixation by the anterior cervical approach.

The study examines media violence against women and their impact on the construction of gender role and narrative in the society. In doing so, it employed the content analysis research method in analyzing media violence and how it affects women’s position in the society. The study argues that violence against women seems to be a growing phenomenon despite the fact that international treaties acknowledges women’s rights as human rights, and prohibit all forms of gender based violence and discrimination.
