Identification systems and selection criteria for small ruminants among pastoralist communities in northern Kenya: prospects for a breeding programme - Mbuku, S. M.; IS Kosgey; Kahi, A.K. (Tropical Animal Health and Production, 2010)
Data on animal identification systems and selection criteria for sheep and goats were collected from the Rendille and Gabra communities in northern Kenya. These were then analysed through computation of indices, which represented a weighted average of all rankings of a particular trait or identification system. The three most important records kept were castration (indexþinspace}=þinspace}0.224), dates of birth (0.188) and entries into the flock (0.185). Identification was done through ear notching (0.409), branding (0.248), and coat colour of the animals (0.150). Characteristics with index ≥0.200 were considered more important and included big body size (Rendille, 0.260; Gabra, 0.251) and milk yield (Rendille, 0.206) for the buck's dam. Big body size (Rendille, 0.264; Gabra, 0.245) and offspring quality (Rendille, 0.252; Gabra, 0.265) were considered important attributes for the buck's sire. Important qualities for the ram's dam were big body size (Rendille, 0.246; Gabra, 0.216), offspring quality (Rendille, 0.200; Gabra, 0.235), fat deposition (0.233) among the Rendille and drought tolerance (0.246) among the Gabra. For the rams' sire, big body size (Rendille, 0.235; Gabra, 0.233), offspring quality (Rendille, 0.200; Gabra, 0.235) and fat deposition (Rendille, 0.203; Gabra, 0.220) were considered important. The results from this study imply that pedigree and performance recording have been practiced through own intricate knowledge and that pastoralists have deliberate selection criteria. This information is the cornerstone in the establishment of appropriate breeding programmes in the slowly changing pastoral systems.

{Self-reported attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder symptoms among university students in Eldoret, Kenya.} - Atwoli, L.; Owiti, P; Manguro, G; Ndambuki, D. (East African medical journal, 2010)
To determine the prevalence of self-reported attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) symptoms among university students in Eldoret, Kenya. A cross-sectional descriptive study of all students who gave consent to participate in the study. Moi University's Town Campus, comprising the Schools of Medicine, Dentistry and Public Health. Four hundred and fifty eight undergraduate students, with a mean age of 23.7 years (17-46, S.D. 4.1), of whom 236 (51.5{%}) were male. Presence of ADHD symptoms as measured by the adult ADHD self-report scale (ASRS versus 1.1). The prevalence rate of self-reported ADHD symptoms was 21.8{%}. This was significantly associated with belonging to a younger age-group (17-20 years) compared to the older age-groups (p{<}0.05). The prevalence was higher among females (25.2{%}) than among males (18.6{%}), but this was not statistically significant. There was no significant association between a positive ASRS screen and course of study. Using a modification of ASRS full symptom checklist to approximate a DSM IV TR ADHD diagnosis yielded a prevalence of ADHD symptoms of 9.2{%} in this cohort. The prevalence rate of ADHD symptoms among university students in Eldoret, Kenya is significantly higher than that reported in other studies. Further studies are needed to generate more information about this condition in the low-income countries, especially in college and university populations.

Assessment of Drug Interactions Between Antiretroviral and Anthelminthic drugs - Kigen, Gabriel Kimutai; Prof Andrew Owen & Dr Geoffrey Edwards (Department of Molecular and Clinical Pharmacology, University of Liverpool, Liverpool L69 3GE, UK, 2009)
Background: Drug interactions are amongst the commonest cause of medication error and yet frequently unrecognised; especially in Sub-Saharan Africa where there is high prevalence of HIV and accompanying co-infections. Amongst these co-infections are systemic helminthic infections, lymphatic filariasis and schistosomiasis which together afflict over 250 million people annually people and over 1.5 billion at risk.Aims: The main aims of the research was to assess the prevalence of drug-drug interactions between antiretrovirals and co-administered drugs in a large outpatient programme in Eldoret, Kenya and to obtain data for the in vitro assessment of clinically significant drug-drug interactions between antiretrovirals and anthelminthic drugs; praziquantel (PZQ) and ivermectin (lVM).Methods: Retrospective audit of prescriptions for 1040 consecutive HIV positive patients enrolled into the programme between 4/0112006 and 19/04/07 was carried out. Records of age, gender, body weight, baseline CD4 counts, WHO staging, antiretrovirals and concomitant drugs were taken and the screening for interactions carried out using the Liverpool website (www.hiv-druginteractions.org). For the in vitro studies drug transporter mediated drug-drug interactions between antiretrovirals saquinavir (SQV), lopinavir (LPV), nevirapine (NVP) and efavirenz and PZQ/IVM were determined by investigating transport through Caco-2 cell monolayers and by accumulation experiments in cells that overexpress P-glycoprotein (P-gp), an efflux transporter. A high-pressure liquid chromatography method for simultaneous determination of PZQ and SQV was validated and the substrate specificity of PZQ in relation to P-gp determined. The ability of the anthelminthics (PZQIIVM) to induce ABCB I, CYP2B6 and CYP3A4 genes, and the effect of nanodispersion on the transport of SQV along the Caco-2 cell mono layers were also assessed.Results: Clinically significant drug-drug interactions were common (affecting over 1:3 patients), and 32% of these interactions could have resulted in lowering of plasma antiretroviral concentrations. NVP inhibited the uptake transport of IVM, LPV increased the uptake transport of IVM, IVM inhibited the efflux transport of SQV by a threefold margin and IVM significantly facilitated the uptake of LPV (eightfold margin). PZQ was neither a substrate nor inhibitor of P-gp and both anthelminthicsdid not induce the genes under study. Nanodispersion improved the intracellular accumulation of SQV.Conclusions: Clinically significant drug-drug interactions involving antiretrovirals are prevalent in Africa and are likely to impact on the therapy of HIV 1 AIDS. Urgent measures are required to address the problem so as not to compromise on the efficacy of antiretrovirals. IVM interacted with antiretrovirals and in vivo studies should be carried out to investigate clinical implications. Nanodispersion appears to circumvent the drug transporter efflux of SQV and thereby facilitating entry into the cells. Further research is required to determine in vivo effects.

Genetic and phenotypic parameters and annual trends for growth and fertility traits of Charolais and Hereford beef cattle breeds in Kenya - Orenge, J. S. K.; E.D. Ilatsia; IS Kosgey; Kahi, A.K. (Tropical Animal Health and Production, 2009)
This study estimated genetic and phenotypic parameters and annual trends for growth and fertility traits of Charolais and Hereford cattle in Kenya. Traits considered were birth weight (BW, kg), pre-weaning average daily gain (ADG, kg/day) and weaning weight (WW, kg); calving interval (CI, days) and age at first calving (AFC, days). Direct heritability estimates for growth traits were 0.36 and 0.21; 0.25 and 0.10; 0.23 and 0.13 for BW, ADG and WW in Charolais and Hereford, respectively. Maternal heritability estimates were 0.11 and 0.01; 0.18 and 0.00; 0.17 and 0.17 for BW, ADG and WW in Charolais and Hereford, respectively. Direct-maternal genetic correlations ranged between −0.46 and 1.00; −0.51 and −1.00; −0.47 and −0.39 for BW, ADG and WW in Charolais and Hereford, respectively. Genetic correlations ranged from −0.99 to unity and −1.00 to unity for growth and fertility traits respectively. Prospects for improvement of growth and fertility traits exist.

In this case, a thirty six year old patient on treatment for schizophrenia is described with severe tardive dyskinesia. The most likely cause is long term treatment with two highly potent typical antipsychotic medications. The patient was initially treated with Benzhexol, an anticholinergic agent with the potential to induce or aggravate the disorder. This case discusses the common presentation and management of neuroleptic induced tardive dyskinesia.

Realities in breed improvement programmes for dairy goats in East and Central Africa - Bett, R. C.; IS Kosgey; Kahi, A.K.; K.J. Peters (Small Ruminant Research, 2009)
Increasing population pressure, land scarcity and diminishing production resources are promoting goat production in the tropics. Dairy goat breeding (DGB) projects have been implemented by development agencies, governments and the private sector with the objective of improving the dairy merits genetically through crossbreeding with exotic genotypes. The performance of these projects is still a cause for concern. Therefore, sustainable dairy goat breeding forces various stakeholders to re-orient their breeding goals, strategies and design of breeding programmes towards a sustainability perspective. This paper highlights a set of key requirements for establishing sustainable dairy goat breeding programmes. Conclusions are drawn based on the lessons learnt from numerous examples of DGB projects in East and Central Africa keeping sustainability concerns insight to inform on-going and future projects.
Keywords: Breeding programmes; Dairy goat projects; East and Central Africa; Sustainability
