Abstract:
Tegalweru Village is chili center production in Malang. This demand has led to the cultivation of chili plants across three growing seasons to meet the needs of partner companies. Conventional agricultural practices have reduced soil organic matter, resulting in degraded soil properties despite high yields, and have negatively impacted the agricultural ecosystem and surrounding environment. Research indicates that land in Tegalweru Village with slopes below 10% exhibits better quality in terms of water availability, pH, and soil organic matter compared to land with slopes above 30%, regardless of terracing.

Abstract:
Background: The tibial plateau is the upper most surface of the tibia bone which forms the knee joint together with femoral condyles. It has a medial and lateral condyle. There are increasing cases of osteoarthritis of the knee with increasing age and trauma, hence the need for knee arthroplasty to restore functional anatomy of the knee. Arthroplasty requires accurate sizing of implants to the damaged knee, which will be guided by knowing morphometric measurements of Kenyan tibial plateaus which are unique to those of other populations.

Abstract:
Fractures of the femur due to increased road traffic accidents are on the rise and lead among orthopedic trauma conditions at Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital (MTRH). The best treatment is open surgery with fixation and stabilization using implants, mostly because fractures are either old or due to lack of equipment for closed or percutaneous surgery, leading to blood loss necessitating transfusion. MTRH experiences excessive blood cross-match relative to actual transfusion, wasting reagents and blood.

Abstract:
Mechanical energy is a versatile and accessible green energy source, increasingly harnessed to power small-scale devices via innovative flexible piezoelectric nanogenerators (F-PNGs). These devices convert mechanical energy into electricity using lightweight materials such as Barium Titanate (BaTiO3), poly dimethyl siloxane (PDMS), and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs). In this design, BaTiO3 nanoparticles were embedded in a composite film with PDMS and MWCNTs, sandwiched between two copper electrodes. The BaTiO3/PDMS/MWCNT composite PENGs, synthesized for this study, produce an output voltage of ∼8 V through periodic cyclic beating.

Abstract:
Health service delivery data ought to be collected regularly to not only enhance the health services quality and care itself, but also inform constant changes that are less costly to the government and consumers of health services. The World Health Organization stipulates that the provision or delivery of health services is an external output of the inputs into the health system, including procurement and supplies, the health workforce, as well as financing. Although an increase in such inputs ought to translate into enhanced service delivery and access to services, this is not always the case necessitating WHO to call for regular collection of data on health service delivery to not only promote the availability of health services, but also guarantee adequate access to such services.
