Sleep Duration of Inpatients with a Depressive Disorder: Associations with Age, Subjective Sleep Quality, and Cognitive Complaints
Abstract: Sleep complaints and sleep disturbances are common characteristics of depression; however, the association between sleep duration and subjective sleep quality has not been investigated thoroughly. Thus, subjective sleep quality and sleep duration were analyzed in depressed inpatients. Questionnaire data consists of clinical and sleep-related questions were sampled over a one-year period from adult inpatients with depressive syndromes. Sleep duration and items related to sleep quality were analyzed by means of …

Simulation of Sediment Deposit and Maintenance Requirements for Sani- Abacha Road Culvert, Rivers State, Nigeria
Abstract: Empirical model of sediment yield equation was applied to develop the sediment deposit monitoring equation of the Sani-Abacha road culvert. The culverts were selected based on field observation of continuous overflow, road overtopping and channel contraction in the course of heavy storm due to sediment built up within and inside the culvert barrel. The result of the assessment shows that the way sediment load varies with discharge is consistent and …

Millard Reaction: The Chemical Reaction of Browning, Flavoring and Aroma Through the Science of Cooking.
Abstract: The Maillard reaction is a step in the formation of advanced glycation endproducts (AGEs). It is tracked by measuring pentosidine. Even though the Maillard reaction has been studied most extensively in food science, it has also displayed and shown correlation in many different diseases in the body of human being, especially in degenerative eye diseases. In normal conditions, these diseases are due to the accumulation of advanced glycation endproducts (AGEs) …
