  • SURRA. THIS Short Notice of Surra Is Written in Order to Induce R.A.M.C
    J R Army Med Corps: first published as 10.1136/jramc-02-01-10 on 1 January 1904. Downloaded from 64 SURRA. THIS short notice of surra is written in order to induce R.A.M.C. officers living in surra districts to assist in filling up a few gaps in our knowledge of this disease. It is true that surra is not a human disease, but it is none the less of very great importance from an Army point of view; as a force which has to operate in a surra district may lose the greater part, if not all, its transport and riding animals, with disastrous results .. Surra generally occurs in hot climates and in low-lying, damp localities, hence a large number of sick men may be expected coincidently with the appearance of surra, and the question of trans­ port is certain to furnish a good deal of anxiety for the medical officer. In this way surra may closely concern us. Moreover, Leishman's recent observations on the spleens of men dying of Dum Dum fever suggest the possibility of another trypanosome Protected by copyright. disease, in addition to sleeping sickness, occurring in man, so that any fresh information as to the method of spread of trypanosome diseases in general will be of value. \ The disease is a parasitic one caused by the Trypanosoma Evansi. The characteristics of the disease are, progressive wasting and muscular weakness, associated with irregular fever. The disease has been known in India for centuries, but its actual cause was only discovered in 1880 by Evans, a veterinary surgeon.

It advances a recent scholarly emphasis to re-assert the centrality of African societies to the history of the early modern trade diasporas that shaped developments around the Atlantic Ocean.

  • PRSP II) for Guinea and the Public Disclosure Authorized Joint IDA-IMF Staff Advisory Note (JSAN) on the PRSP II
    OFFICIAL USE ONLY IDA/SecM2007-0684 December 12, 2007 Public Disclosure Authorized For meeting of Board: Tuesday, January 8, 2008 FROM: Vice President and Corporate Secretary Guinea: Second Poverty Reduction Strategy Paper and Joint IDA-IMF Staff Advisory Note 1. Attached is the Second Poverty Reduction Strategy Paper (PRSP II) for Guinea and the Public Disclosure Authorized Joint IDA-IMF Staff Advisory Note (JSAN) on the PRSP II. The IMF is currently scheduled to discuss this document on December 21, 2007. 2. The PRSP II was prepared by the Government of Guinea. The paper acknowledges the disappointing outcome of the first PRSP, which covered the period 2002-2006. The political, social and economic environment in which the implementation of PRSP I took place was characterized by poor governance, political instability, and low growth which led to an increase in poverty from 49 percent in 2002 to an estimated 54 percent in 2005. Overall, public service delivery deteriorated in terms of both quality and access and the living conditions for most Guineans worsened. Public Disclosure Authorized 3. PRSP II aims at recapturing lost ground over the past five years. The overall strategy is based on three pillars: (i) improving governance; (ii) accelerating growth and increasing employment opportunities; and (iii) improving access to basic services. It focuses on restoring macroeconomic stability, institutional and structural reforms, and mechanisms to strengthen the democratic process implementation capacity. 4. As approved by the Board on August 6, 2007, the pilot Board Technical Questions and Answer Database (http://boardqa.worldbank.org or from the EDs' portal) is now open for questions.

  • Surra Importance Surra, Caused by Trypanosoma Evansi, Is One of the Most Important Diseases of Animals in Tropical and Semitropical Regions
    Surra Importance Surra, caused by Trypanosoma evansi, is one of the most important diseases of animals in tropical and semitropical regions. While surra is particularly serious in Murrina, Mal de Caderas, equids and camels, infections and clinical cases have been reported in most Derrengadera, Trypanosomosis, domesticated mammals and some wild species. T. evansi is transmitted mechanically El Debab, El Gafar, Tabourit by various tabanids and other flies, and it can readily become endemic when introduced into a new area. The morbidity and mortality rates in a population with no immunity can be high. In the early 1900s, an outbreak in Mauritius killed almost all Last Updated: September 2015 of the Equidae on the island. More recently, severe outbreaks have been reported in the Philippines, Indonesia and Vietnam. In addition to illness and deaths, surra causes economic losses from decreased productivity in working animals, reduced weight gain, decreased milk yield, reproductive losses and the cost of treatment. Etiology Surra is caused by the protozoal parasite Trypanosoma evansi. This organism belongs to the subgenus Trypanozoon and the Salivarian section of the genus Trypanosoma. Two genetic types of T. evansi, type A and type B, have been recognized. Most isolates worldwide belong to type A. Type B, which is not recognized by some diagnostic tests, has only been detected in parts of Africa as of 2015. Whether T. evansi should be considered a distinct species, separate from T. brucei, is controversial. Species Affected The principal hosts and reservoirs for T. evansi are reported to differ between regions; however, camels, equids, water buffalo and cattle are generally considered to be the major hosts among domesticated animals.

  • Guinea: Poverty Reduction Strategy Paper
    REPUBLIC OF GUINEA Work – Justice – Solidarity Ministry of the Economy, Finances and Planning Poverty Reduction Strategy Paper PRSP–2 (2007–2010) Conakry, August 2007 Permanent Secretariat for the Poverty Reduction Strategy (SP-SRP) Website: www.srp-guinee.org.Telephone: (00224) 30 43 10 80. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This document is the fruit of a collective effort that has involved many development stakeholders: executives of regionalized and decentralized structures, civil society organizations, development partners, etc. Warm thanks to all of them. The government would particularly like to acknowledge the grassroots organizations and civil society actors who, despite the difficulties that affected the implementation of the PRSP-I, have renewed their confidence in its action. The lessons learned from the implementation of the PRSP-I have helped in the design and preparation of the document. For this, the government again thanks the development partners who have accompanied it in this exercise and provided technical and financial contributions (EU, GTZ, SCAC, Canadian Cooperation), as well as the team of national experts who carried out field work with dedication and professionalism. Furthermore, without the painstaking work carried out in 2005 and 2006 as part of the process of refining the regional PRSPs, it certainly would not have been possible to prepare this document. The same is true of the work done, mainly in 2006, to evaluate needs aimed at reaching the MDGs. In this regard, we thank the United Nations System, and in particular the UNDP, for its exceptional contribution. Finally, the government extends its most sincere thanks to all those, both named and unnamed, who participated in this collective work.

The symptoms were first noted during a journey through Thailand and were associated with intermittent fever. The patient also had a previous travel history to Spain and Brazil. In Thailand trypanosomiasis was suspected and therapy was initiated with diminazene aceturate (Berenil®), iron supplementation and doxycycline. The clinical signs improved but lethargy persisted. Upon return to Germany the patient showed lethargy, weight loss, cough and clinical examination by the referring veterinarian revealed pale mucous membranes. Routine hematological and biochemistry profiles revealed moderate non‐regenerative normocytic normochromic anemia (Hct: 29%, reticulocytes: 14000/μl), moderate thrombocytopenia (platelets: 89x109/l), marked leukopenia (leukocytes: 1.1x109/l) and mild hyperglobulinemia (globulin: 61g/l). Therapy with allopurinol, itraconazol and amoxicillin/clavulanic acid was initiated. Serological testing for infectious diseases was performed. Serological results were negative for Babesia sp. and Ehrlichia canis, and doubtful for Leishmania infantum. Direct Coomb’s test was negative.

  • Report on the Final Evaluation for Adra's
    REPORT ON THE FINAL EVALUATION FOR ADRA’S PROJET D’AUGMENTATION DES RESSOURCE ALIMENTAIRES DE SIGUIRI (PADRAS) March 2005 External Consultants Dr Joseph F Dorsey, Jr. (Agricultural Economist/Credit Expert) and Dr Joseph J Adu-Gyamfi (Agronomist//Natural Resources Management Expert) Transfer Authorization Award No. FFP-A-00-00-00085-00 SO2: Increased effectiveness of FFP’s PVO and Mission partners in carrying out Title II development activities with measurable results related to food security, with a primary focus on household nutrition and agricultural productivity. Foreword The purpose of the final evaluation is to assess ADRA’s achievements toward the goal of improving food security in the Siguiri prefecture of northeastern Guinea. ADRA has approached food security with a two-pronged strategy of increasing food availability through a set of agricultural technologies appropriate to the region and of increasing food access through increased incomes of participants in project activities.
