N-(3-Bromophenyl)-3,4,5-trimethoxybenzamide
No full textIn the title compound, C16H16BrNO4, the dihedral between the planes of the aromatic rings is 7.74 (18)°. The amide group is tilted with respect to the bromo- and methoxy-substituted aromatic rings by 36.3 (8) and 35.2 (8)°, respectively. The meta-methoxy groups are essentially in-plane with the aromatic ring [dihedral angles CH3-O-C-C = -4.6 (4) and -2.5 (4)°]. The para-methoxy group is markedly displaced from the ring plane [dihedral angle CH3-O-C-C = -72.5 (4)°]. The crystal packing is stabilized by N-H...O hydrogen bonds linking the molecules into chains running along the b axis. Key indicators: single-crystal X-ray study; T = 173 K; mean σ(C–C) = 0.004 Å; R factor = 0.033; wR factor = 0.076; data-to-parameter ratio = 14.6
4-Chloro-N-m-tolylbenzamide
No full textIn the title compound, C14H12ClNO, the dihedral angle between the two aromatic rings is 11.29 (15)°. The crystal packing is stabilized by N-H...O hydrogen bonds linking the molecules into chains running along the c axis. Key indicators: single-crystal X-ray study; T = 173 K; mean σ(C–C) = 0.004 Å; R factor = 0.066; wR factor = 0.178; data-to-parameter ratio = 13.7
Impact of Web technologies on student-lecturer expert power relationship
No full textExpert power is “the power that comes from having knowledge and expertise in a particular area” (Nazarko, 2004). In the history of the development of higher education, the relationship between the lecturer and the students has changed because of many different factors. Before the internet and web revolution, the lecturer used to be the main information source for his/her students. The web as a modern source of knowledge is now used universally and this spreading trend might affect the relationship between the lecturer and his students. Understanding the impact of this change appears to be important as it would be employed in improving teaching techniques. In this area, many studies have focused on the impact of using the internet and web applications on students and lecturers. These studies have widely investigated this impact on student’s achievements, attitude and also have shown how the role and performance of the faculty have changed. This paper aims to investigate the impact of using web resources as a source of knowledge on the student-lecturer relationship from students’ perspectives. The investigation focuses on how students’ knowledge gained from using websites has impacted on the relationship with their lecturer as a knowledgeable person which theoretically means Expert power. 1661 students from 30 universities/ educational institutions participated in this research
Comparison between turnaround time and cost of herpes simplex virus testing by cell culture and polymerase chain reaction from genital swabs
No full textClinical diagnosis of genital herpes simplex virus (HSV) (GH) infection is insensitive and non-specific and requires laboratory confirmation. In this study we compared viral culture and the amplification of HSV DNA by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) with respect to turnaround time and cost. We compared 182 swabs submitted to our laboratory between March and May 2005, which were tested using MRC-5 cell culture, with 168 genital swabs submitted during the same months in 2006, and were tested by PCR. We concluded that PCR testing in our laboratory has significantly improved the turnaround time, with 68.4% of tests having been reported in less than 24 hours. This in turn significantly improved the service provided for the diagnosis of genital herpes without additional costs.</p

<p><span>The purpose of the investigation was to confirm the Causes of unhygienic conditions of primary school in District Kotli AJ&K. The study was descriptive in nature and survey method was used to collect the data. The total population consisted of 312 primary school teachers of tehsil Kotli and Kohiratta. Simple random sampling technique was used to draw the sample from the population. The researcher selected (175) teachers as a sample from whole population. A self-developed questionnaire based on Five Point Likert Scale was used for the collection of data. The researcher personally collected the data after evaluating its validity and reliability. Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) was used to analyze the data by using frequency and percentage. It is concluded that primary schools’ classroom is cleaned on a daily basis and students are aware of the importance of cleanliness. Classroom teacher may actively address hygiene condition. Moreover, proper sanitation is available in the classroom and classrooms are organized sufficiently for all students.<span> </span></span></p>

Diagnostics in prosthetic joint infections
No full textProsthetic joint infection (PJI) poses a significant burden on patients, clinicians and the healthcare economy. Although various tests have been established for the diagnosis of PJI, the diagnosis remains challenging. In this review, established and potential future diagnostic tests are presented, some of which could provide stepping stones towards improved diagnosis, identification of aetiological agents and efficacious therapeutic options for the management of PJI
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
