For the University of Hawaii at Hilo, the Kaʻipualei model of student advising has halved the dropout rate.

Background Consuming diversified food during the adolescent period is essential to build a healthy and active mind for their later life. Food prices increased in the local market due to fewer production of crops. Thus, exploring the dietary diversity of adolescents in this area is crucial to estimate diet quality. So the aim of the study was to identify determinant factors of dietary diversity. Methods An institution-based cross-sectional study was conducted among adolescent students in Woldia town. A total of four hundred eleven students were included in the study. A simple random sampling t...

10 Another study noted that E. coli were 90%, 16.7%, 10% and 13.3% resistant to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, nitrofurantoin, gentamicin and ceftriaxone, respectively. The resistance rates for K. pneumoniae were 72.7%, 33.3% and 0% for trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, nitrofurantoin and ceftriaxone respectively. 8 The prevalence of asymptomatic UTI and its resistance pattern in non-pregnant PLHIV in this context is not well known. According to the Tanzanian standard treatment guideline of 2017, UTI in the general population is treated by ciprofloxacin with the exception of pregnant women and...

−1), which is consistent with the results in HepG2 cells (0.2–2 mg·mL −1), 55 but promoted cell proliferation at low concentrations in vitro. Notably, the cell viability was greater than 60% when the CS-CD concentration was less than 4.5 µg•mL −1, which may be desired (regeneration, neurogenesis, etc.) or undesired (tumours and cancers) cell proliferation. Because the type of cell proliferation is unknown, it is difficult to determine whether toxicity is high or low. Further study on cell proliferation is required. However, the results only indicated that the cytotoxicity of CS-CD...
