Development of a Quality Manual for a Research and Educational Centre: A Case Study
Pun Kit Fai,Ellis Ruel L.A.,Chan, Laverne The Korean Society for Quality Management 2005 The Asian Journal on Quality Vol.6 No.3
There have been growing concerns about whether proper measures are in place to ensure the delivery of quality services and the operations in research and educational institutions. This paper describes various quality models and discusses their relevance into the total quality concepts and quality management systems (QMS) in education. It then illustrates how a QMS and the accompanied quality manual be developed in a research and educational institution using the Centre for Enterprise Research Integration (ERI) at The University of the West Indies, Trinidad as a case. Through personal interviews with the $Centre{\square}s$ personnel, views on the operations and determinants of the QMS were acquired. Results showed that the people's resistance to changes, conflicts on academic freedom, and difficulties on measuring performance were the obstacles to QMS implementation. People involvement and proper communication are determinants of QMS implementation. The system also rests on having a tailored quality manual that entails the documentation of processes and procedures for ascertaining the delivery of quality services and operations in the Centre. The development of quality manual is briefly described in the paper.

In Nepal, while no population based cancer registry program exists to assess the incidence, prevalence, morbidity and mortality of cancer, at the national level a number of hospital based cancer registries are cooperating to provide relevant data. Seven major cancer diagnosis and treatment hospitals are involved, including the BP Koirala Memorial Cancer hospital, supported by WHO-Nepal since 2003. The present retrospective analysis of cancer patients of all age groups was conducted to assess the frequencies of different types of cancer presenting from January 1st to December 31st 2012. A total of 7,212 cancer cases were registered, the mean age of the patients being 51.9 years. The most prevalent age group in males was 60-64 yrs (13.6%), while in females it was 50-54 yrs (12.8%). The commonest forms of cancer in males were bronchus and lung (17.6%) followed by stomach (7.3%), larynx (5.2%) and non Hodgkins lymphoma (4.5%). In females, cervix uteri (19.1%) and breast (16.3%), were the top ranking cancer sites followed by bronchus and lung (10.2%), ovary (6.1%) and stomach (3.8%). The present data provide an update of the cancer burden in Nepal and highlight the relatively young age of breast and cervical cancer patients.
Ethnic Variation in Consumption of Traditional Tobacco Products and Lung Cancer Risk in Nepal
Raspanti, Greg A,Hashibe, Mia,Siwakoti, Bhola,Wei, Mei,Thakur, Binay Kumar,Pun, Chin Bahadur,Milrod, Charles,Adhikari, Subodh,Lee, Yuan-Chin Amy,Sapkota, Amir Asian Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention 2015 Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention Vol.16 No.14
Lung cancer is the leading contributor to cancer deaths in the developing world. Within countries, significant variability exists in the prevalence of lung cancer risk, yet limited information is available whether some of the observed variability is associated with differences in the consumption pattern of local tobacco products with differing potency. We recruited 606 lung cancer cases and 606 controls from the B.P. Koirala Memorial Cancer Hospital in Nepal from 2009-2012. We estimated odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for lung cancer risk associated with different tobacco products, using unconditional logistic regression. Unfiltered cigarettes tended to be the most frequently used products across ethnic subgroup with about 53.7% of Brahmins, 60.1% of Chettris, and 52.3% of Rai/Limbu/Magar/others. In contrast, about 39.9% of Madishe/Tharu smokers reported using bidi compared with only 27.7% who smoked unfiltered cigarettes. Among those who only smoked one type of product, choor/kankat smokers had the highest lung cancer risk (OR 10.2; 95% CI 6.2-16.6), followed by bidi smokers (OR 5.6; 95% CI 3.6-8.7), unfiltered cigarettes (OR 4.9; 95% CI 3.4-7.2), and filtered cigarettes (OR 3.4; 95% CI 2.2-5.3). A clear dose-response relationship was observed between increased frequency of smoking and lung cancer risk across all ethnic subgroups. These results highlight the important role of traditional tobacco products on lung cancer risk in the low income countries.
Analysis of heteroepitaxial germanium on gallium arsenide grown by pulsed laser deposition
S. M. Durbin,J. P. Zheng,A. Markwitz,V. J. Kennedy,A. Pun 한국물리학회 2004 Current Applied Physics Vol.4 No.2-4
Interest in the pulsed laser deposition (PLD) technique now extends far beyond growth of multiple component oxides, the area inwhich it rst proved itself. In particular, it shows promise as a viable technique for high-quality crystalline thin lms on substrates with low thermal tolerance. In this paper, we report the PLD growth of single-crystal Ge on (10) GaAs substrates in the tem-perature range of 150550.C. In situ reection high-energy electron diraction shows the formation of a reconstructed surface afteras few as two laser pulses, corresponding to approximately 4% monolayer coverage. Transmission electron microscopy conrms heteroepitaxial growth with good quality interfaces and smooth surfaces, despite the presence of oxygen and carbon impurities.
