Despite the government’s effort to scale up the distribution of long lasting insecticide-treated bed nets (LLINs), full ownership and optimal use is still limited. In 2021, over a million LLINs were made available for distribution in the South West Region. However, the current situation of malaria has not yet been ascertained following the 2021 mass distribution campaign (MDC). Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine LLIN ownership, coverage, usage and the prevalence of malaria following the 2021 MDC in the Tiko Health District (THD), South West Region of Cameroon. A cross-sectional study was carried from May 1 to 27, 2022 in which a multi-stage sampling technique was used to enroll eligible participants. Data were collected from household heads using questionnaires and capillary blood samples collected from consented household members were used to test for malaria. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 25 at 0.05 significance level. From the 150 households surveyed, 96 (64.0%) owned a mosquito net before the recent MDC. There was an overall significant increase (p p = 0.644) in LLINs ownership between areas where door-to-door (79.5%) and fixed “Hit and Run” (75.8%) strategies were used in the distribution of LLINs in THD. The prevalence of malaria was 10.2%. The regular use of LLINs was significantly associated (p = 0.007) with low malaria prevalence. The 2021 MDC had an impact on malaria prevalence in those who properly used them.展开更多

Corresponding to its lowest optical absorption transition at 240 nm, phosphor emits a bluish-green light at 485 nm, which yields the Stokes shift about 20000 cm -1. The unusual optical properties of Zr 4+ ion are ascribed to its uncommon coordination environment. In addition it shows intensive bluish-green long lasting phosphorescence (LLP) due to the existence of electron trap, which is generated by aliovalent substitution of Zr 4+ ion for the cation site in the matrix as shown in thermoluminescence (TL) spectrum.展开更多

The methods of photoluminescence, thermoluminescence and phosphorescence were used to study the samples, and possible mechanism was suggested. The co-doping of Ce3+ ions poisoned the phosphorescence emission of Eu2+ because of the competition to obtain the trapped electron. The phosphorescence of Ce3+ in the sample decays more quickly than that of Eu2+, which is suggested for the reason that the emission energy of Ce3+ is higher or the distance between Ce3+ and electron traps of the glasses is longer.展开更多

We performed asteroseismic analysis on six solar-like stars observed by the Kepler mission: KIC 6064910, KIC 6766513, KIC 7107778, KIC 10079226, KIC 10147635 and KIC 12069127. The extraction of seismic information includes two parts. First, we obtained two global asteroseismic parameters, mean large separation ?_ν and frequency of maximum power ν_(max),with autocorrelation function and collapsed autocorrelation function. Second, we extracted individual oscillation modes ν_(nl) with low-l degree using a least-squares fit. Stellar grid models were built with Yale Rotating Stellar Evolution Code(YREC) to analyze stellar properties. They covered the range of M = 0.8 ~ 1.8 M_⊙with a step of 0.02 M_⊙ and [Fe/H] =-0.3 ~ 0.4 dex with a step of 0.1 dex.We used a Bayesian approach to estimate stellar fundamental parameters of the six stars, under the constraints of asteroseismic parameters(?_ν, ν_(max)) and non-asteroseismic parameters(Teff, [Fe/H]). We discover that the six targets include five sub-giant stars with 1.2 ~1.5 M_⊙ and one main-sequence star with 1.08 M_⊙, and with ages in the range of 3 ~5 Gyr.展开更多

X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electronic microscopy (SEM), integrated thermal analyzer (TG), and photoluminescence spectra (PL) as well as the ST-900PM weak light photometer were used to study the synthesis conditions, morphology, luminescence properties, and the decay time of the phosphor. The XRD results show that the products synthesized at 1400~C for 4 h have good crystallization without any detectable impurity phases. Based on the PL spectra, the optimal conditions are as the following. The molar ratios of Y3+ to Gd3+ and Eu3+ to Sm3+ are 2:8 and 3:1, respectively, and the contents of Mg2+ and SiO2 are 5mol% and 3mol%, respectively. The decay time monitored by the ST-900PM weak light photometer is 7200 s, increasing 44% and 100%, respectively, compared with the Eu3+ and Sm3+ single-doped phosphors. The results indicate that the energy transfer is from Sm3+ to Eu3+ ion, and Sm3+ is a good sensitizer to Eu3+.展开更多

The results of TL show that two intrinsic defects associated with peaks at 346 and 418 K appear in the undoped CdSiO3 phosphor; whereas only one strong cadmium vacancy VCd^11 defect associated with peak at 348 K appears in the Cd1-xInxSiO3 phosphor due to the chemical nonequivalent substitutions of Cd^2+ ions by In^3+ ions. This chemical nonequivalent substitution of In^3+ ions into the CdSiO3 host produced the highly dense cadmium vacancy VCd^11 trap level at 348 K, which resulted in the origin of the long afterglow phenomenon. The findings has enlarged the family of non-rare-earth doped long afterglow phosphors available, and offers a promising approach for searching long afterglow phosphor.展开更多

Under synchrotron radiation excitation at 305 nm,only the characteristic emission from Eu (2+) was excited. But the characteristic emission from Dy (3+) was also found under 175 nm excitation,besides the characteristic emission of Eu (2+). The characteristic emission from Dy (3+) was detected in the Eu (2+) and Dy (3+) codoped long lasting phosphorescence materials,which indicates that Dy (3+) is still existed in the phosphors under continue excitation at 175 nm.展开更多

The green phosphorescence arises fromf-f transitions of Tb^3+ and can be observed with naked eyes in the dark for up to 10 hours after the irradiation with a UV lamp (λmax =254 nm) for 30 min at room temperature. The glass could re-emit LLP under the stimulation of a UV lamp (λmax=366 rim) for 60 seconds after the LLP disappeared. The re-emitted LLP is called PSLLP. The glass sample was characterized by the fluorescence and thermoluminescence spectra, respectively. The possible mechanism of the LLP and PSLLP was also discussed.展开更多

Moreover, glass samples exhibit bright red long lasting phosphorescence (LLP) when the mole percent of ZnO are more than 60%. After turnoff the irradiation source of UV lamp peaking at 254 nm, the red phosphorescence can be observed for about 6 h in the limit of light perception for naked eyes (0.32 mcd/m^2). Photoluminescence (PL) spectra, LLP emission spectra and decay curves were detected. Increasing MnO or ZnO content, the phosphorescence intensity can be improved distinctly and the emission wavelength can be also adjusted from 595 nm to 628 nm. According to the structural characteristic of zinc phosphates glasses, we suggest that non-bridge oxygen (NBO) is probably related with the arising of LLE Meantime, the variation of crystal field intensity induced that the LLP emission wavelength red shifts.展开更多

Conversely, inadequate levels of ownership, utilization and durability invariably compromise their efficacy. Operational performance of the KO-Tab 1-2-3 Long Lasting Insecticidal Nets (LLINs) was assessed using the World Health Organization (WHO) standard entomological and epidemiological procedures, and a pretested structured questionnaire. The median knock down time for Anopheles funestus s.l. was 30 minutes (95% CI 26.3 - 34.0). Post exposure mean mortality rates were 34% at one hour and 80.0% at 24 hours (OR = 0.13, P = 0.00002). Children between the ages of 1 - 4 years old exhibited higher false positives as compared to the 5 - 15 years age groups (OR = 0.10, P = 0.0006). Parasite prevalence varied between rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) (40.4%) and microscopy (31.3%) (OR = 0.67, P = 0.2825) with 9.2% discordant RDT false positives. All malaria positive children were Plasmodium falciparum mono-infections. Hospital admissions reduced by 28% between 2005 and 2008, with case fatality rates reducing by 19% between 2006 and2007 inchildren under five years. No marked heterogeneity between LLINs ownership (66%) and utilization (48.3%) was observed (OR = 0.49, P = 0.0978). There was complete (100%) community level knowledge of KO-Tab 1-2-3 LLINs. The study provides evidence of potential of KO-Tab 1-2-3 LLINs for operational scale distribution, and substantiates the need for further longitudinal studies to monitor their insecticidal and physical durability.展开更多

We monitored the trend of long lasting insecticide net (LLIN) ownership and use and its impact on malaria and anaemia among children under five over the past decade in an area of intense, prolonged and seasonal malaria transmission. Methods: A total of 1717, 2155 and 1915 children were surveyed in June and 1717, 2155 and 1697 in November in 30 communities of the Hohoe Municipality in 2006, 2010 and 2015 respectively. The primary outcomes monitored were the trend of LLIN ownership, use and prevalence of malaria and anaemia through cross-sectional surveys. Findings: Results showed a significantly positive trend (p Interpretation: Ownership of LLIN and its use together with other indicators of malaria prevalence generally improved five years after the implementation of a malaria control programme. Ten years after programme implementation, consistent improvement was only in LLIN ownership and use. Also malaria prevalence indicators improved in the post as compared to the pre-rainy season in the study communities.展开更多

We monitored the trend of long lasting insecticide net (LLIN) ownership and use and its impact on malaria and anaemia among children under five over the past decade in an area of intense, prolonged and seasonal malaria transmission. Methods: A total of 1717, 2155 and 1915 children were surveyed in June and 1717, 2155 and 1697 in November in 30 communities of the Hohoe Municipality in 2006, 2010 and 2015 respectively. The primary outcomes monitored were the trend of LLIN ownership, use and prevalence of malaria and anaemia through cross-sectional surveys. Findings: Results showed a significantly positive trend (p Interpretation: Ownership of LLIN and its use together with other indicators of malaria prevalence generally improved five years after the implementation of a malaria control programme. Ten years after programme implementation, consistent improvement was only in LLIN ownership and use. Also malaria prevalence indicators improved in the post as compared to the pre-rainy season in the study communities.
