Statistics in Healthcare Over time, statistics have been an integral tool in the healthcare sector. One of the contributions that the statistics have played in the healthcare sector is research. Healthcare research cannot be a success if statistics do not come into play. Through research, statistics has made it possible for healthcare professionals to improve quality, carry out clinical trials, and calculate morbidity and mortality rates. Statistics equally makes it possible for healthcare professionals to do laboratory analysis (Kim & Mallory, 2014). It is essential to note that the utilization of statistics started in the 19th Century. Apart from the contribution of Florence Nightingale, statistics have been used by various researchers to ensure that there is significant progress in the healthcare field. In the year 1918, for example, the US government managed to come up with a figure on the number of people who were killed in the influenza pandemic (Worobey, Han & Rambaut, 2014). The population was estimated to be fifty million. The contribution of Louis Pasteur is still felt today. The biologist applied statistics in his study of…
Pakistan’s media Introduction Pakistan’s media is one of the most dynamic ones in the South Asian region. The country has a broad and diverse media representation, especially in recent years. The television and radio houses, print media, and other digital platforms have revolutionized the political, social, and economic environment in the country. The country has over 300 privately owned newspaper companies, with a combined sale of over 6 million copies. A study done by FBS found that these newspaper companies had sold over 6 million copies in 2009 alone. The number of television viewers has also been increasing rapidly in the country, which is another boost for the media. The country has not achieved total democracy, which puts a lot of pressure on the liberal press within its borders. The government has been using indirect methods to shut down and silence popular media companies. Pakistan Electronic Media Regulatory Authority (PEMRA) uses the excuse of “unfriendly media to suspend licenses, which indirectly limits the actions of various television, radio and print companies. Reporters without borders ranked the country the second last…
Thermal Analysis of Metal-Organic Precursors for Functional Cu-ΝiOx Metal Oxide as Hole Transporting Layer in Inverted Perovskite Solar Cells: Role of Combustion Chemistry in Thin Films versus Powders Introduction Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have witnessed significant progress related to improved efficiency within the last decade. For example, the energy of PVCs rose from 3.8% in 2009 to more than 24% in the year 2019. According to many experts, many of the most currently used electron transport layers in perovskite solar cells, such as require considerably high temperatures during synthesis. This has significantly limited their potential commercial applications. Consequently, the emerging development of inverted perovskite solar cells based on the use of p-type NiOx as the primary hole transport layer (HTL) on the electrodes has received significant attention in recent years due to its immense potential benefits. Cu doped nickel oxide (Cu-NiOx) films are important nanoparticles which have recently demonstrated significant promise as hole transporting layer (HTL) for modern perovskite solar cells (PVSCs) due to their unique properties such as intrinsic p-type semiconducting properties and enhanced electrical conductivity[1]. Besides,…
The Connection between Science of Biology, Evolution, Biotechnology, and Farming Science of biology is essential in day to day activities of man. Through the study of the science of biology, scientist and the general population can learn and access information on how to better their existence. It is through the study of biological science that concepts such as biotechnology and the evolutionary development were created and materialized. Evolution development in biology is a vast area of biological sciences that primarily deals with the comparison of the development process in different living organisms over time. The evolution in biology considers the relationships of ancestral origin within organisms. Biotechnology generally it is a process that concentrates mostly with the manipulation of genetic composition within a microorganism by biologist and scientist intending to achieve a particular ending. Through the science of biology, biologists around the world have a more in-depth understanding of properties and evolution of microorganisms, and therefore the information is vital in biotechnology and genetic engineering. In real-world situation science of biology, evolution development of biology, and biotechnology can be applied…
Quality in nursing science Introduction Nursing care should be geared toward ensuring that the patient, family, and community are working towards achieving a common quality outcomes. Measures should be put in place to ensure that all the stakeholders can get health services and get the best out of the service. Standardization standards should be geared toward ensuring that quality and safety in nursing science should be examined to determine the impact on the nursing staff, health care organization, quality of patient care, and the outcomes expected as a result of safety measures. Quality in nursing science refers to the degree in which services on health care are given to the different populations and the efforts of ensuring that the outcomes on health are consistent enough with the professional knowledge in nursing. On the other hand, safety measures in nursing science refers to the efforts made to lower the risk of adverse effects concerning medical care due to the different diagnosis conditions. The relationship between health quality and safety is that the amount of protection is determined by the quality of…

Epidemiologic Methods 1. Introduction Epidemiology refers to the study of diseases in a population. The various public health professionals, and veterinarians involved in the multiple types of research for preventive medicines use the epidemiological methods for disease outbreak investigations, and surveillance to identify the various risk factors, which influence both the animal and human populations. Further research and inquiries can thus be carried because of the knowledge from the risk factors assessed. The principal purpose of epidemiology is to understand what risk factors are specific to which type of a disease, and the possible preventive measures for the disease in groups of individuals. Epidemiology is observational. Regarding this aspect, this study can tell what caused a condition to a specific individual. Epidemiological studies can be categorized into four types. These include the cohort study, occupational epidemiological study, case-control study, and cross-sectional study. The epidemiologists use statistical approaches to determine whether the differences in the research results are real or instigated by chance fluctuations. Epidemiological studies can be used in various ways to estimate the disease frequency, and find the correlations…

Critical Discourse Analysis of President Donald Trump’s First White House Interview 1.0 INTRODUCTION Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) exercises are meant to understand the processes of social practice from the perspective of discourse. Communication has a big role in many aspects of social practice through the establishment of societal power relations (Baranov, Mamychev and Ovchinnikov, 2015). CDAs are an important aspect of identifying the underlying impact of political speeches and interviews other than looking them at face value. Politicians are trained or themselves skilled in manipulating communications to suit their agendas. Unfortunately, some of these agendas might not be in the best interests of their electorate. This CDA exercise targets one of the most studied presidents in the world in recent history. United States President Donald Trump has been the focus of various CDA and communication-oriented studies based on his reckless communication practices. He is rude, sometimes outright abusive, divisive, and prejudicial in terms of race and gender. The transcript from which this CDA exercise borrows shall be his first interview in the White House with famed ABC journalist David Muir.…
