Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Alcoholism and the recreational use of cannabis are two of the most common addictions in the European Union. The consumption of these substances plays a significant role in chronic and acute health conditions, namely oral health. While the patterns of use and effects on the body are different over the long term, there are similar effects of these two addictions when it comes to oral health.Alcohol consumption contributes to tooth erosion and periodontitis, and there are studies that also associate it with an increased risk of oral cancer. Cannabis causes periodontal disease, xerostomia and oral candidiasis, and is also associated with head and neck cancer, although there are conflicting studies on the latter effect.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 60 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Aggregation in colloidal suspensions depends on Brownian motion which exists between colloidal particles constantly in collision. The DLVO theory is a cornerstone in the analysis of aggregation of particles it is the foundation in understanding stability (on which aggregate formation is dependent) in colloidal dispersions. Electrostatic double layer forces and van der Waals forces are the major interacting forces that influence the formation of aggregates. In this project the factors that are considered to influence aggregate formation in colloidal dispersions among which are pH, salt concentration, particle size distribution and viscosity. The influence of these factors mentioned is investigated in this book. I hope the knowledge shared is beneficial in understanding interfacial forces.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 56 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -This book aims to investigate the contributing factors that impact the performance of IGCSE (International General Certificate of Secondary Examination), Cambridge University, ESL Learners in Northern Region Schools, and The Capital Schools of Maldives. This research explores the situational differences among the secondary learners in the rural Northern Region and the Capital City of Maldives in terms of teacher qualification, availability of resources, students¿ learning styles and motivation, parent involvement, and support in ESL learning. The findings indicate that the students in the capital are at a greater advantage geographically as they are more exposed to the resources and are susceptible to greater exposure to the communicative and proper use of language. They are rich in vocabulary and intrinsic motivation for better performance in ESL. This study provides imperative details that could bring profound and proliferating changes to the development of curriculum and syllabi for Secondary learners to mitigate the disparity between the island schools and capital city schools.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 80 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -The objective of this book was to establish if Zimbabwe has the potential and Information Communication Technology (ICT) capacity to implement e-voting methods in the country's often discredited electoral process. The study adopted qualitative methods and secondary data collected from relevant reports, questionnaires randomly distributed to the general populace as well as interviews with Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC) and the Postal and Telecommunications Regulatory Authority of Zimbabwe (POTRAZ) officials. The book highlights the global and national status of ICT adoption in Zimbabwe which is the key driver to the successful implementation of e-voting, internet coverage, and use in the country. The research also investigated how Zimbabwe citizens in the diaspora, through new Internet platforms, can exercise their right to participate in the country's political discourse and vote using the e-voting model. The findings indicate that though it can be done, it is not being practiced. Hence citizens in the diaspora are being excluded from the electoral process.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 52 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -This work discusses the global governance of health through different governing frameworks such as legal, economic, and/ or technological governance. However, the focus of this paper lies on the governance of global health through the concept of securitisation. It therefore examines what securitisation is as a social-legal health governance tool and its implications on governing infectious and non-infectious diseases, which are considered threats to the security of health. Despite many forms of governance, it will be demonstrated that a relationship exists between them, which ultimately helps to holistically govern global health. In other words, this work explores how legal governance and securitisation interact, and are mutually dependent on one another.Also, securitisation prioritises the attention being paid to particular threats to health, depending on the assertion of the degree of threat a disease may pose. This prioritisation may lead to the neglect towards the active provision of health amenities and the responsivity to abide by Human Rights such as the right to health. Several case studies are discussed to understand the role of securitisation and its implications.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 88 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -This research seeks to determine how credit risk ratings affect the firm value of Kenya's publicly traded commercial banks. A descriptive research approach and secondary data from the Central Bank of Kenya (CBK) and other public financial reports will be utilized to analyze the banks. A multivariate panel regression model will be employed to examine the data, while charts and frequency tables will illustrate the findings. The results will likely demonstrate that capital sufficiency has a marginally positive influence on company value, earning potential has a negligible positive impact, liquidity has a negligible negative effect, and asset quality has a negligible positive influence. The report proposes that domestically produced equity capital should be used to improve credit risk ratings, as well as preserve the highest levels of liquidity and ensure that the business has high-quality assets and consistent earnings to increase its value.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 68 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -An antioxidant is a chemical that can slow down or stop other molecules from oxidising. Oxidation reactions can be harmful even though they are essential for existence. Free radicals can be created during oxidation events and harm cells. Antioxidants stop these reactions by eliminating the free radical intermediates, and they also prevent other oxidation reactions by going through the process of oxidation.The oral cavity is a special region. An important protective barrier between internal and exterior surroundings is the oral mucosa.Antioxidants play a role in the later stages of cancer development. DNA damage is considered to be one of the most important contributors to cancer. Much of this damage is oxidative in nature. Antioxidants may be able to cause the regression of premalignant lesions or inhibit their development into cancer.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 68 pp. Englisch.
