Study Design: Cross-sectional study Place and Time of Study: Port Harcourt, Rivers state, Nigeria. January 2021 – July 2021. Method: A comparative assessment of 100 subjects were carried out in the course of this study with 50 been the fish mongers and the other 50 non fish mongers. The Forced expiratory volume (FEV), the force vital capacity (FVC), the FEV1/ FVC Ratio among fish mongers and non-fish mongers were determined. Results: The mean ages of both categories of the subjects indicated 39 years for fishmongers and 20.89 for non-fishmongers. This study found out that there were elevated levels of systolic and diastolic blood pressures in the fishmonger subjects compared to their non-fishmonger. The FVC, FEV1 and FEV6 mean values were found to be non-significantly reduced in the fishmonger group compared to their counterparts. Conclusion: These findings suggest that it is import...

It leads to the endangered pollution of lagoon water aquatic system. The prime reason is the lack of knowledge among stakeholders and researchers regarding the influential parameters in establishing the lagoon water quality. The optimal quality for lagoon water is critical for the longevity of aquatic ecosystem. This study focuses on using bibliographic references to find the most influential factors determining the water quality in lagoons for deriving a comprehensive long-term water quality monitoring plan to ensure the sustainability of the lagoon water ecosystem. The lagoon water quality was classified in this study into biological, physical, and chemical parameters and studied for their importance upon enhancing the water quality. Experiments were conducted on selected parameters using the water samples from the selected Sri Lanka...

A dimple, also called a gelasin (from Latin gelasinus) is a small natural indentation in the skin on a part of the human body, most notably in the cheek. Cheek dimples when present, show up when a person makes a facial expression, such as smiling, whereas a chin dimple is a small line on the chin that stays on the chin without making any specific facial expressions. The presence or absence of dimple is an important anthropological feature of the human face that can be used as a means of identification on the living, for a family, group of people, and tribes. The paucity of literature on the prevalence /distribution of dimple among the Idoma people and the other tribes in Benue State informed this study. Results and discussions: The survey showed that 60.3% of the indigenous tribes had dimple. Again, the distribution of the dimple among the population showed that 59.9% had cheek dimple, while 40.1% had chin dimple. The...

Assertiveness is the ability to express our thoughts and feelings openly in an Honest, Appropriate, Respectful and Direct way. Methodology: The participants were students of 2nd - 5th levels at the Department of Nursing, University of Port Harcourt with a total of 205 participants. The study was a cross sectional descriptive survey design with an adapted structured questionnaire using Rathus Assertiveness schedule instrument with a four point Likert scale of strongly Agree, Agree, Disagree and Strongly Disagree. All statistical analysis was performed using statistical package for social Science (SPSS). Findings: The finding...

This study aims to evaluate the impact of hydro-alcohol extract of mistletoe leaves on changes in body-weight, uterus-weight, ovary and liver of female Wistar rats.Methods: Forty-nine female rats were randomly selected into nine groups with five rats per group. Group 1 received 5 ml/kg of water, group 2 received mono sodium glutamate (MSG) 800 mg/kg, group 3 received extract 100 mg/kg, group 4 received extract 200 mg/kg, group 5 received extract 400 mg/kg, group 6 received extract 100 mg/kgand MSG 800 mg/kg, group 7 received extract 200 mg/kgand MSG 800vmg/kg, group 8 received extract 400 mg/kg and MSG 800 mg/kg and group 9 received letrozole 0.6 mg/kg and MSG 800 mg/kg. Administration of extract was done for 28 days.Results: Findings from the study revealed significance decreased in the final weight of the animals. When treated groups received extract “100 mg/kg, ex...

Globally, it has contributed significantly to reducing the workforce as well as increasing the family expenditure on preventable health conditions. It is grossly underreported with no clear data on annual death reports, especially in most developing countries. Objectives: To determine the rate of death from a head injury due to road traffic accidents, risk factors; the commonly injured anatomical regions and immediate cause of death from autopsy examination of victims. Methods: This was a prospective longitudinal study in which 86 victims with CORONER FORM D were sampled recruited for the study. Primary data were obtained using the Crash Report Form (CRF) from the Federal Road Safety Corps, oral interviews from deceased relatives and security personnel who brought the victims, and subsequently, Coroner form D was ...

Although the dopamine agonists have been helpful in ameliorating some disease conditions, it could also cause an adverse effect on the reproductive hormones and other organs of the body. Objective: This study comparatively evaluated the effect of Bromocriptine and Cabergoline on some female reproductive hormones. Methodology: This study was carried out using twenty-five rats grouped into five groups of five rats in each. Group one was the control group, Group 2 and 3 were low and high dose of Bromocriptine, while Group 4 and 5 were low and high dose Cabergoline. The drugs were administered twenty-four hourly and lasted for 21 days. Blood samples were collected for hormonal...

Results and discussions: The survey showed that 60.3% of the indigenous tribes had dimple. Again, the distribution of the dimple among the population showed that 59.9% had cheek dimple, while 40.1% had chin dimple. The most dominant age group was 33-47 years, the most common religion was Christianity, participants who had tertiary education were more predominant, for marital status, the dominant group were married/cohabiting. The comparison of dimple distribution and the sociodemographic characteristics showed that only level of education significantly (p=0.04) associated with dimple distribution. Conclusion: The survey showed that 60.3% of the indigenous tribes had dimple. The distribution of the dimple among the population showed that 59.9% had cheek dimple, while 40.1% had chin dimple. The survey shows that three in five persons had dimple in the population, one in four persons had chin dimple, and three in eight persons had cheek dimple. The result of this study could be used as a baseline data for the Idoma people.
