Cross-border entrepreneurs in small business are increasingly redefining and reshaping nations. Comparative evidence in the literature of cross border entrepreneurs has been almost non-existent hence filling a significant vacuum in the literature. The purpose of this research is firstly, to compare and contrast the effects of business issues on bus

Immigrant entrepreneurs are widely perceived as being highly sought after for innovation and economic growth. This view is commonly shared by many developed countries where immigration policies favourably reflect special visas and entry programmes to attract immigrant entrepreneurs. It is also widely acknowledged that business ownership is not only

We reviewed our result of banding procedures for steal syndrome identied from theatre lists and cross referenced with the theatre log book. We performed 8 banding procedures in 8 patients, between June 2012 and April 2014. All presented with grade II–III steal syndrome. Complete symptoms resolution and salvage access occurred in all cases except

Degeneration or defect of articular cartilage is a major predicament and if it is left untreated, it may lead to progressive damage and disability affecting every one disregard of their age. Although nonsurgical management of articular cartilage injury has remained largely the same over many years, surgical treatment keeps on evolving. Restorative

Modern advances in biochemistry, cell and molecular biology, genetics, biomedical engineering and material sciences, have contributed to the development of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine (TERM). Although TERM is still in its initial phases, significant breakthrough in this cross- disciplinary area has clearly marked the way for the es

This paper discusses the notion of graduate competencies; issues around the competencies of graduates. It also discusses the Changing Workplace vis a vis expected graduate competencies/ employability. It also outlines the way forward in setting the roles of workforce development Institutions, including higher education institutions.10/20/2020 IPRC2

This study aims to assess follicle preservation in mature female mice with the provision of Nigella Sativa oil against effects of cyclophosphamide which can cause ovarian follicular loss. Forty-eight ICR mice aged 18 weeks were divided into 3 groups: group I = control, group II = cyclophosphamide-alone (50mg/kg) for 5, 10, 15 and 20 days; and group

The aim of the current study was to investigate changes in the reproductive parameters during stress and the impact of thymoquinone during the period. The effects of stress were measured through immobilisation stress on mice. Group I was administered normal saline daily via intraperitoneal injection while Groups II and III were subjected to 2 and 6

Articular cartilage tissue is known to have poor capability of self-repair. Therefore, tissue engineering has significantly emerged as an alternative solution for articular cartilage restoration. Poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) and fibrin have been widely used as biocompatible scaffolds materials to regenerate tissue. In this study, bone marro

Articular cartilage is a unique tissue with limited self-repair ability. The field of articular cartilage tissue engineering has emerged as a significant complementary solution that involves multidisciplinary field and refers to the practice of combining scaffolds, cells, and signalling molecules into functional tissues. The main goal of tissue eng
