Dermatophilosis is a contagious zoonotic skin disease caused by Dermatophilus congolensis with wide host range and most commonly affects cattle, sheep and horse. The disease is characterized by exudative dermatitis with scab formation. Factors such as prolonged wetting by rain, high humidity, high temperature, mechanical injury to the skin, concurrent disease, stress and tick infestation that reduce or permeate the natural barrier of the integument influence the development, prevalence, seasonal incidence and transmission of Dermatophilosis. A cross sectional study on prevalence of Deramtophilosis was carried out and epidemiologic risk factors like age, breed, sex and seasonal coditions were corelated with the prevalence of Dermatophilosis. This study concludes that winter season, higher age group, female and jersey cross bred will be the risk factors for Dermatophilosis prevalence and oxytetracycline is the chioce of antibiotic for clinical management.","PeriodicalId":93074,"journal":{"name":"Annals of reviews and research","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-04-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48537900","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Net revenue per hectare will be reduced by USD 177.62 and 464.71 consequent to a unit increase in temperature during summer and winter seasons, respectively. Climate change is therefore a threat to the Ethiopian economy. The available option for Ethiopia to reduce the wide-ranging impacts of climate change is to develop mitigation strategy for resilience. Vulnerabilities are local and require location specific adaptation and mitigation measures. Ethiopia is expected to be hardest hit by climate change and the most vulnerable sectors are agriculture, water resources, and human health (C. Arndt et al., 2009, GEF, 2009). This can significantly reverse the progress towards poverty reduction and food security in Ethiopia. Analyzing and assessing the spatiotemporal climate change trends would help better understand impacts of climate change to formulate better strategies for climate change adaptation and mitigation in Ethiopia and encourage local proactive community participation and national efforts as a contribution to global climate change mitigation. Proactive approaches to managing climate risks within vulnerable rural communities and among institutions operating at community, sub-national, and national levels is a crucial step towards achieving the sustainable economic development [1-7].","PeriodicalId":93074,"journal":{"name":"Annals of reviews and research","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-04-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47812778","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Data points included demographics and antibody serology. Patients were excluded if they had a known hematologic disorder, known rheumatologic disorder or were on active chemotherapy. A positive ANA or RF were considered if titers were >1:80 or RF >14 IU/mL, respectively as these are institutional cutoffs. Complete blood counts were reviewed for patients who were not excluded based on above criteria. Hematology and rheumatology notes were reviewed looking for symptoms suggestive of autoimmune conditions or if an alternative diagnosis was made. Results: A total of 561 patients were seen in our outpatient clinic during the 10 year interval with an associated diagnostic code for leukopenia/neutropenia.199 were excluded due to incomplete data or inadequate follow up period, 35 patients for known malignancy, 14 for known rheumatologic disorder, and 122 for being on active chemotherapy. The remaining 191 patients were reviewed for data analysis. Patient demographics are summarized in table 1. A total of 116 patients (61%) were tested for ANA, of which 27 (23%) were positive. 22 of those 27 (81%) patients were referred to rheumatology, 6 of which were diagnosed with rheumatologic diseases (22%). RF was tested in 110 patients (58%), of which 15 were positive (14%) all were referred to rheumatology, and 5(42%) were diagnosed with rheumatologic diseases. Test results, referral rate and rheumatologic diagnosis are listed in table 2. The majority of patients who were diagnosed with rheumatologic disorders had associated findings suggestive of underlying disease (3 patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) had mild thrombocytopenia (100-150K/uL), 1 patient with mixed connective tissue disease had Raynaud9s phenomenon, 3 patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) had arthralgias and 1 had myalgias, all with correlating physical exam or radiographic findings). Other alternative diagnoses for leukopenia/neutropenia included drug induced, viral and bacterial infections, hematologic malignancies, ethnic neutropenia, transient leukopenia, and idiopathic. Conclusion: Ambulatory hematology consults for leukopenia/neutropenia are a common occurrence in practice. Our study showed that 11 patients out of 191 (6%) were found to have an associated rheumatologic disorder, with the majority having other signs/symptoms or associated lab abnormalities suggestive of autoimmune disease. This study shows that testing for ANA and RF in patients with leukopenia/neutropenia are of limited clinical utility in asymptomatic patients with no other lab abnormalities and it should not be part of a routine work up unless directed by symptoms. Primary care providers need to screen for other abnormalities (sympto","PeriodicalId":93074,"journal":{"name":"Annals of reviews and research","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-12-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47619954","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this formulation, a household is said to be experiencing monetary poverty if its annual per-capita consumption spending is less than the poverty line of 130,375 CFA Franc. The study uses the 2009 National Survey on Household Living Conditions administered by the National Institute for Statistics and demography (INSD), along with a Random Utility modeling framework to explain households' per-capita consumption choices and thus poverty status. We then specify multivariate probit and logit models to describe the choice probabilities, and uncover the parameters using Maximum Likelihood Methods. \u0000The results show that education, along with other covariates is a key determinant of households' spending choices and poverty status in Burkina Faso. In fact, compared to households with uneducated heads, those headed by someone with a primary, secondary, and higher education are respectively 1.45 times, 4.13 times, and 18.04 times more likely to spend a per-capita amount above the poverty threshold of 130,375 CFA franc. These results suggest that education could successfully be used as an effective policy tool to reduce the incidence of chronic poverty in Burkina Faso.","PeriodicalId":93074,"journal":{"name":"Annals of reviews and research","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-06-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46483044","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
