(2023)malaria and its subsequent eradication, the disease remains a major public health concern. Of the deaths due to the malaria scourge, Sub-Saharan Africa accounted for 92% with children under 5 years old accounting for 61% ... -
Environmental impact assessment of risk associated with groundwater overdraft remediation in cone of depression, Jining, China
(Environmental Geology, 2007-03-21)In this paper, a simple scenario and probabilistic approach is used to assess the potential groundwater risk due to proposed overdraft remedial actions in cone of depression, Jining City, China. Focusing on the concentrations ... -
Environmental impact assessment using FORM and groundwater system reliability concept
(Environmental Geology, 2007-09-20)In this paper, fist-order reliability method (FORM) is used to evaluate the impacts of uncertainties posed by traditional deterministic models on the environment in Jining, China. Because of groundwater contamination in ... -
EPIDEMIOLOGY AND CHARACTERISATION OF Groundnut Ringspot Virus (GRSV) INFECTING GROUNDNUTS AND OTHER PLANTS IN WESTERN KENYA
(2023)Groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) is an annual oilseed legume crop grown by small holder farmers in Kenya for its economic and nutritive value. However, its yield has declined upto 680 kg ha-1 than its genetic potential of ... -
EQUITY IN BURSARY ALLOCATION IN RELATION TO INTERNAL EFFICIENCY OF SECONDARY SCHOOLS IN BUNGOMA COUNTY, KENYA
(MMUST, 2020-08-24)Basic education is very critical in any education system because of the crucial role it plays in catalyzing national development. Consequently, maintaining a high student enrolment at this level should be a priority for ... -
Erratum to: Hepatitis B virus sero-profiles and genotypes in HIV-1 infected and uninfected injection and Non-injection drug users from coastal Kenya
(BMC Infectious Diseases, 2015-09-03)Erratum After publication of [1] it came to the authors’ attention that Mark K. Webale’s name was displayed incorrectly. The correct spelling of their name has been updated in the original article and is included in this erratum. -
Erythrocyte indices, anaemia levels and types in Kenyan injection and non-injection substance users
(Europe PMC plus, 2018-10-03)The impact of injection and non-injection substance use in HIV infections is an area of great public importance especially with respect to hematologic and immune profiles. Evaluations of hematologic and immune status are ... -
Escherichia coli pathotypes and Shigella sero-groups in diarrheic children in Nairobi city, Kenya
(Gastroenterology and Hepatology From Bed to Bench, 2017-06-29)m: In the present study, we investigated the prevalence of E. coli pathotypes and Shigella sero-groups and their antimicrobial profiles among diarrheic children in Nairobi city, Kenya. Background: Although diarrheagenic ... -
Estimating Average Variation About the Population Mean Using Geometric Measure of Variation
(International Journal of Statistical Distributions and Applications, 2020-08-25)Measures of dispersion are important statistical tool used to illustrate the distribution of datasets. These measures have allowed researchers to define the distribution of various datasets especially the measures of ... -
ESTIMATION FOR DOMAINS PARAMETERS IN DOUBLE SAMPLING FOR STRATIFICATION WITH NON-LINEAR COST FUNCTION IN THE PRESENCE OF NON RESPONSE
(MMUST, 2016-03)In sample surveys separate estimates of a parameter maybe required for sub-populations into which a population is subdivided without separately sampling from these sub- populations. Such sub-populations are called domains ... -

The estimation of broiler respiration rate based on the semantic segmentation and video amplification
(Frontiers in Physics, 2022-12-21)Respiratory rate is an indicator of a broilers’ stress and health status, thus, it is essential to detect respiratory rate contactless and stress-freely. This study proposed an estimation method of broiler respiratory rate ... -
Estimation of Risk Factors Affecting Screening Outcomes of Prostate Cancer Using the Bayesian Ordinal Logistic Model
(Journal of Probability and Statistics, 2023-03-16)Prostate cancer occurs when cells in the prostate gland grow out of control. Almost all prostate cancers are adenocarcinomas. The survival rate for prostate cancer patients depends on the screening outcome, which can be ... -
Estimation of Spatially Varying Parameters with Application to Hyperbolic SPDES
(Journal of Applied Mathematics, 2023-01-10)Parameter estimation is a growing area of interest in statistical signal processing. Some parameters in real-life applications vary in space as opposed to those that are static. Most common methods in estimating parameters ... -
