, No.20, 2017 1 First-Line Anti-Tuberculosis Drug Susceptibility Patterns of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Complex Strains Responsible for New Cases of Human Pulmonary Tuberculosis in Kisumu County, Western Kenya
(Journal of Natural Sciences Research, 2017)Background: Tuberculosis (TB) remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, drug-resistant tuberculosis being a major public health problem. The emergence and spread of multidrug resistant (MDR) Mycobacterium ... -
Non-adherence to antiretroviral treatment among migrating fishermen in western Kenya’s islands: a rapid qualitative study
(Taylor & Francis, 2023-11-28)Fishing communities in many Sub-Saharan African countries are a high-risk population group disproportionately affected by the HIV epidemic. The association of migration with HIV and AIDS in sub-Saharan Africa is well ... -
Non-genetic sources of variation and temporal variability in growth and feed efficiency traits among phylogenetically distinct clusters of indigenous chicken in Kenya
(Springer Netherlands, 2016-12-01)This study aims to investigate the influence of non-genetic factors on feed efficiency in indigenous chicken. Residual feed intake (RFI), residual gain (RG) and residual intake and gain (RIG) were used as measures of ... -
NON-GENETIC SOURCES OF VARIATION IN LACTATION CURVE TRAITS OF DAIRY CATTLE IN KENYA
(2010)Lactation curves are a graphical representation of the milk production profile of a cow from parturition to drying up. They provide information about the productivity of the cow and offer a means of explaining features ... -
Non-host resistance to the finger millet blast pathogen Magnaporthe oryzae is modulated by a resistance response to PWL1 and PWL2 in Eragrostis curvula but not in related Chloridoid species
(2023-05-28)Magnaporthe oryzae, a devastating pathogen of finger millet (Eleusine coracana), secretes effector molecules during infection to manipulate host immunity. This study determined the presence of avirulence effector genes ... -
Non-Puerperal Uterine Inversion in a Young Woman: A Case Report, Brief Surgical Review, and Clinical Insights
(Clinical Medical Reviews and Case Reports, 2016-08) -
A non-synonymous polymorphism in IL-23R Gene (rs1884444) is associated with reduced risk to schistosomiasis-associated Immune Reconstitution Inflammatory S...
(BioMed Central, 2014-06-10)Background Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) and Schistosomiasis co-infection is common among residents at the shores of Lake Victoria in Kenya. About 36% of this population initiating antiretroviral therapy (ART) ... -
Non-tarriff barriers and the economic integration the East African community
(ZENITH International Research & Academic Foundation (ZIRAF) India, 2013)The key objective for the adoption of the East African Community (EAC) Customs Union in 2006 was to enhance the economic integration of the region through the elimination of tariffs and non-tariff barriers (NTBs). This ... -

Nonsynonymous amino acid changes in the α-chain of complement component 5 influence longitudinal susceptibility to Plasmodium falciparum infections and severe malarial anemia in kenyan children
(Frontiers, 2022)Severe malarial anemia (SMA; Hb < 5.0 g/dl) is a leading cause of childhood morbidity and mortality in holoendemic Plasmodium falciparum transmission regions such as western Kenya. -
Norm estimates for convexoid operators
(JOOUST, 2015-06-24)Hilbert space operators are important in formulation of principles of quantum mechanics and also in other fields of applied sciences. These operators include normal operators, hyponormal operators, normaloid operators, ... -
Norm of a derivation and hyponormal operators
(Int J Math Anal, 2010)We characterize when the norm of inner derivation on a norm ideal equals that on the quotient algebra. We further investigate norms of inner derivations implemented by normal and hyponormal operators on norm ... -
Norm Properties of S -Universal Operators
(Communications in Advanced Mathematical Sciences, 2020)We investigate the norm properties of a generalized derivation on a norm ideal J in B(H), the algebra of bounded linear operators on a Hilbert space H. Specifically, we extend the concept of S−universality from the inner ... -
Norms of Derivations Implemented by S-Universal Operators
(International Journal of Mathematical Analysis, 2011)Let H be a complex Hilbert space and B(H) the algebra of all bounded linear operators on H. For A, B ∈ B(H), we define inner derivations implemented by A,B respectively on B(H) by ΔA(X) = AX−XA, ΔB(X) = BX−XB and a ... -
Norms of Inner Derivations on Norm ideals
(Int. Journal of Math. Analysis, 2010)Let B(H) be the algebra of bounded linear operators on a Hilbert space H and J be a norm ideal in B(H). We investigate the relationship between the diameter of the numerical range of an operator A ∈ B(H) and the norm ... -
A note on momentum and energy conservation in dynamics under arbitrary forces in classical Newtonian and relativistic mechanics
(Research gate, 2018)In teaching mechanics course to first year undergraduate students, I have come across a simple, but very important, gap in the formulation of the principle of conservation of momentum and energy in the dynamics of a body ... -
NOTIONS OF CONTINUITY FOR FINITE RANK MAPS IN THE SPACE OF NORMAL OPERATORS
(2020)We show that a natural extension of a continuous finite rank operator to an arbitrary Hilbert space is continuous. We also give sufficient conditions to calculate delta- epsilon numbers in all the domains of T. In addition, we ... -
