In Mathematic, student’s reading comprehension ability can be seen in their ability to change contextual Math problems into Math models. The ability of student changing a text which contain Math problems into Math models must have connection with their ability in understanding geometry problems. Considering that rigor level, the highest level of geometry thinking ability, a deep understanding and high rigor for student to understand the text. There must be a correlation between students’ reading comprehension ability and geometry thinking levels. The subjects of this research are 31 students of 10th grade in science class. They were given van Hiele Test to check their geometry thinking levels. The result of this research shows that the result of students’ thinking level test and reading comprehension test has 0.466 as coefficient of correlation which means that there is a positive correlation between both abilities, the correlation is not strong.

L'objectif de ce document est d'analyser l'évolution des déterminants de la demande de soins pendant le processus de décentralisation au Cameroun. À cette fin, une analyse des statistiques de résidus et de phi normalisées ajustées a été réalisée à l'aide des données des trois premières enquêtes sur les ménages camerounais (ECAM).

Les résultats montrent que, dans le processus de décentralisation, les individus se sont éloignés des soins de santé traditionnels au profit des vendeurs de drogue informels, dont la fréquentation a régulièrement augmenté; la demande de soins modernes publics et privés a d'abord diminué entre 1996 et 2001, puis augmenté de 2001 à 2007. En outre, une augmentation, puis une diminution du nombre de déterminants significatifs de la demande de soins peuvent être observées au cours de la période.

Deux recommandations principales peuvent donc être formulées en vue d’améliorer la demande de soins: i) améliorer l’offre de soins grâce à une véritable organisation de la médecine traditionnelle, une lutte sans relâche contre la vente informelle de médicaments, une amélioration de la qualité des services et les ressources humaines dans le secteur public, ainsi que la collaboration et la synergie d'actions entre les différents prestataires de soins; (ii) améliorer l'accès aux soins des ménages pauvres et des femmes par le biais de programmes spécifiques pour ces ménages.

Introduction : Specimen transport network system is a major tool in getting quick turnaround time for patient results in general and for tuberculosis (TB) diagnosis in particular given that TB is an airborne disease and any mismanagement of its specimens, sputum in particular, can lead to generation of aerosols, hence spread and infection of the persons transporting the specimens and the health care personnel receiving the specimens and the delay in the diagnosis leading to more spread of the bacilli and up to the death of the patient. It is therefore of great essence to establish a reliable specimen transport network system which is essential for effective TB patient care, allowing for rapid diagnosis, initiation of treatment and patient follow up in the West Region of Cameroon and Cameroon as a whole. This article is therefore aimed at establishing a better specimen transport network system to better the turn- around time for TB specimens in the West Region of Cameroon.

Method: A descriptive retrospective study by means of secondary data collection was carried from January 2016 to July 2017 on 1,130 specimens requested by clinicians before the GeneXpert instruments were introduced in the West Region of Cameroon and from October 2017 to July 2018 when two GeneXpert instruments were introduced in the West region. Request forms with date of test requested at the health facilities in the West region and results registers in which date results from the Reference Laboratory were communicated to health facility in the West Region, were used as the data sources to calculate the turn- around time (TAT).  TAT was analyzed in hours and converted to days using excel.

Results : Results from this study shows an average decrease in turnaround time of patient’s results from 26 days when the specimens were tested only at the Reference laboratory in Bamenda to 7 days when two GeneXpert instruments were introduced in the West region with a total of 2 platforms where tests could possibly be done.

Conclusion : Re designing a better specimen transport network system and increasing the number of Xpert platforms not only in the West region but in all other regions of Cameroon, will reduce TAT for TB results to only 01 to 02 days, thus increase quality of prevention and treatment programs, thereby reducing costs and live savings of the population.

A logo is one of the basic components in a corporate identity or brand identity. It is the graphic representation of what an organisation is. A logo would manage to evoke the consumers’ memories. In this paper, Recognisable Logo Design Specification Guideline (RLDSG) is introduced as a process to establish the recognisable logo design that is incorporated with consumers’ emotions evaluation through the logo design perceptions for startup bramds. The RLDSG is a design guideline attempt to establish Recognisable Logo Design (RLD) towards the contribution to sustainability and successful brand logo perceptions. The investigation was conducted involving an existing brand logo design from Pos Malaysia to elaborate a logo criteria and recognisable factors of the logo. Logo design from Pos Malaysia showed that the entire element were significant to reach the recognisable logo design requirement.  The verification signified from this process increases the ability of graphic designers and marketers to introduce a new logo based on design requirements and preferences.

We have proposed a simple technique for extracting high frequency material complex relative permittivity from 0.1 GHz up to beyond 5.1 GHz despite the test fixture’s discontinuities along with the characteristic impedance. The frequency range limitation depends on the test fixture’s sizes. Based on the S-parameter measurements, the overall technique associates the test fixture in which the sample to characterize is inserted and the technique for altering the propagation constant of the considered region. Mathematics concepts, through their formulations, allow extracting material complex relative permittivity. The technique foundation is primarily based on the fixture calibration when there is a filling up of vacuum. A coaxial test cell is used to validate the extraction procedure. That fixture is suitable for measuring material electric parameters used in medical and civil engineering, telecommunications, and oil and gas domains. We have presented results ensuing from measures of spring water and biological materials: human tissue and liquid 900 MHz. Both biological materials are liquids and react as a muscle subjected to an electromagnetic wave. The technique is broadband, making it easy to fill up the test cell with the sample to be tested.

This study aims to find out and analyze the validity of the execution of Fiduciary Assurance by the Debt Collector in the form of objects of motor vehicle Fiduciary Assurance associated with the Fiduciary Guarantee Act and Financial Services Authority Regulations and legal protection against Debtors in the execution of the Fiduciary Guarantee by the Debt Collector.

The results showed that: The validity of the execution of the Fiduciary Guarantee by the Debt Collector on motor vehicle Fiduciary Assurance objects was associated with the Fiduciary Guarantee Act and Financial Services Authority Regulation, namely: Dept. Colecctor who did not fulfill formal juridical Article 50 Regulation of the Financial Services Authority Number 29/POJK.05/2014 concerning Business Management of Financing Companies is formal juridical disability, so that all actions taken by the Debt Collector in carrying out its duties as long as it is about the execution of fiduciary guarantees have an unauthorized or irrevocable effect. Whereas if the fiduciary guarantee is not registered then it is null and void because the fiduciary deed has a time limit for registration, null and void considered never existing. It is considered never existed because it involves object certainty, and legal protection against debtors in the execution of Fiduciary Guarantees by the Debt Collector, namely: in the form of preventive legal protection including the obligation of financial institutions to register fiduciary collateral objects and employ Debt Collectors who fulfill formal juridical requirements in accordance 50 Regulation of the Financial Services Authority Number 29/POJK.05/2014 concerning Business Operations of Financing Companies. Whereas Repressive legal protection can be in the form of errors committed by the Colector Dept. can be in the form of a matter, firstly, the business license of the Financing Company can be revoked, the second is civilly the Business Entity of the Financing Company can be compensated and the third is Criminal Debt Collector can be imposed Article 365 The Criminal Code as long as the criminal elements are fulfilled have the ability to be responsible.
