Rice is an important staple cereal for many households in Ghana. This study examines the factors that influence consumers’ preference for rice. Using questionnaires, 300 rice consumers, who were sampled across the municipality, were interviewed. Descriptive statistics, factor analysis, and multinomial logistic regression model were used to analyze the obtained data. The rice-related attributes that showed marked influence on consumers’ preference for rice were packaging quality, swelling capacity, stickiness of grains after cooking, percentage of broken grains, market availability, price, and degree of whiteness. Therefore, the stakeholders should implement strategies to improve these rice-related attributes and enhance the rice post-harvest chain.

Retrofit method on flexural T shape wall of apartment is evaluated through an experimental work in this study. For two flexural walls damaged up to almost failure, reinforcements yielded and concrete cracked below height of Id are replaced with new reinforcements and concrete, respectively. Two retrofit method, one is attaching aramid sheet to the surface of specimen, the other placing additional reinforcements in the web and replacing hoop for boundary elements. Horizontal cyclic loads are applied to the top of the specimen with constant axial load. It was shown that the structural capacity of damaged walls could be recovered by placing additional reinforcement in the section of wall. However, in case of using aramid sheet as flexural reinforcement for retrofitting, it is necessary to consider the loss of structural capacity due to the anchor problem at the end of sheet.

Navigation, also known as discovering one’s direction, is a complex human activity. To produce effective routes, it relies on knowledge of the surroundings’ precise geometry and semantic information. Complex geometrical data can be precisely delineated with the improvement of 3D geometric models. A precise 3D geometric model containing a specifically built-in Building Information Modelling (BIM) environment can be integrated into the Geographical Information System platform for indoor path generation to satisfy the requirements of indoor location-based services. Therefore, this paper proposes an approach to evaluate a 3D indoor topology network called a lattice topology data model (LTDM) for the floor-level paths in a 3D multipatch-based model. The LTDM requires the geometric information of the integrated BIM model to identify the indoor space and bounding lines for indoor network generation. The novelty of this study is in the application of the replacement of cell values into vector length for pathfinding through a combination of the Poincaré duality theorem and Dijkstra’s algorithm. The Campus Infrastructure Building model was chosen to validate the proposed method. Multiple space centroid pairs within the floor level were randomly selected to identify the shortest path using the LTDM principle. Paths drawn from the Medial Axis Transformation were compared with LTDM-generated paths for availability testing. The average floor-level path availability was 112% due to the generation of extra paths reflecting real-life situations. The LTDM paths were compared with on-site measurements for accuracy tests, and the average error rate was 3.18%. The results show that the implementation of the LTDM generates an excellent topology data network.

The preparation of activated carbon from palm kernel shell for methane adsorption was studied. Taguchi orthogonal array design was employed to optimize the preparation of activated carbon. The statistical results show that the optimized conditions are the impregnation ratio of 0.55, the activation temperature of 900 oC and the activation time of 150min. The impregnation ratio has the most influence on methane adsorption based on S/N ratio analysis. The mathematical model was developed using regression analysis as a function of independent variables. The results of experiment using optimum conditions fall within the predicted value obtained from the developed model. Activated carbon prepared at optimum conditions which have the highest BET surface area of 1,548.0m2/g and the total pore volume of 1.0 cm3/g recorded the highest methane uptake compared to other conditions. The equilibrium data of the adsorption characteristic fitted favourably to the Freundlich isotherm.

Tuberculosis (TB) is a significant public health concern. Globally, TB is among the top 10 and the leading cause of death due to a single infectious agent. Providing standard anti-TB therapy for at least 6 months is recommended as one of the crucial strategies to control the TB epidemic. However, the long duration of TB treatment raised the issue of non-adherence. Non-adherence to TB therapy could negatively affect clinical and public health outcomes. Thus, directly observed therapy (DOT) has been introduced as a standard strategy to improve anti-TB medication adherence. Nonetheless, the DOT approach has been criticized due to inconvenience, stigma, reduced economic productivity, and reduced quality of life, which ultimately could complicate adherence issues. Apart from that, its effectiveness in improving anti-TB adherence is debatable. Therefore, digital technology could be an essential tool to enhance the implementation of DOT. Incorporating the health belief model (HBM) into digital technology can further increase its effectiveness in changing behavior and improving medication adherence. This article aimed to review the latest evidence regarding TB medication non-adherence, its associated factors, DOT’s efficacy and its alternatives, and the use of digital technology and HBM in improving medication adherence. This paper used the narrative review methodology to analyze related articles to address the study objectives. Conventional DOT has several disadvantages in TB management. Integrating HBM in digital technology development is potentially effective in improving medication adherence. Digital technology provides an opportunity to improve medication adherence to overcome various issues related to DOT implementation.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are the small noncoding RNA molecules which regulate target gene expression posttranscriptionally. They are known to regulate key cellular processes like inflammation, cell differentiation, cell proliferation, and cell apoptosis across various ocular diseases. Due to their easier access, recent focus has been laid on the investigation of miRNA expression and their involvement in several conjunctival diseases. The aim of this narrative review is to provide understanding of the miRNAs and describe the current role of miRNAs as the mediators of the various conjunctival diseases. A literature search was made using PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases for studies involving miRNAs in the conjunctival pathological conditions. Original articles in the last 10 years involving both human and animal models were included. Literature search retrieved 27 studies matching our criteria. Pertaining to the numerous literatures, there is a strong correlation between miRNA and the various pathological conditions that occur in the conjunctiva. miRNAs are involved in various physiological processes such as cell differentiation, proliferation, apoptosis, development, and inflammation by regulating various signaling pathways, genes, proteins, and mediators. Pterygium was the most studied conjunctival disease for miRNA involvement, whereas miRNA research in allergic conjunctivitis is still in its early stages. Our review provides deep insights into the various miRNAs playing an important role in the various conjunctival diseases. miRNAs do have the potential to serve as noninvasive biomarkers with diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic implications. However, multitudinous studies are required to validate miRNAs as the reliable biomarkers in conjunctival pathologies and its targeted therapy.
