Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSequence Stratigraphic Analysis from Well Logs of an X-Field, Niger Delta, NigeriaGodwin Omokenu Emujakporue, Alphonsus Joseph EyoThe sequence stratigraphic analysis of the area was studied using well log information in order to determine the lithostratigraphy, chronostratigraphy, possible reservoir sands, age and depositional environment of the study area for opportunities that will support exploration program. The depositional environment penetrated by the wells interpreted from log signatures gave three major facies association. The blocky and coarsening upward (funnel … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 11 Jul 2016 · 13,979 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsHealthcare Associated Infections in Intensive Care Units HIV Positive PatientsLisandra Serra Damasceno, Evelyne Santana Girao, Rafael Fonseca de Queiroz et al.Problem statement: Healthcare Associated Infections (HAI) are frequent and important complications, most commonly affecting hospitalized patients in intensive care units. Hospital average length of stay is usually 5-10 days higher in these patients. In HIV positive/Aids patients HAI vary from 8,7 and 15% in prevalence.
