ABSTRACT
Air pollution is the largest environmental and public health challenge in the world today. It leads to adverse effects on human health, climate, and ecosystem. Air is getting polluted because of the release of Toxic gases by industries, vehicular emissions, and increased concentration of harmful gases, this necessitates a proper real-time measurement and analysis of air quality so that appropriate decisions can be taken in a timely period. In this work a system of measuring air quality index for Mogadishu city is proposed and implemented using IoT technology, C++ programming language and mobile programming. Evaluation and measurement of the air pollution were performed according to WHO guidelines with each level categorized by symbolized colors. To get the results of this investigation, we used some devices such as MQ3 for smoke sensors and air quality level for real- for the mobile e, NodeMCU send data to cloud firebase and data are shown in mobile application.

Introduction: Several studies suggest increasing rates of antibiotic resistance among adult populations with Urinary tract infections (UTI). Escherichia coli (E. coli), is the predominant bacterium both in the community and in hospital environments causing uropathogenic infections. This study aimed to estimate the common uropathogen bacteria that cause UTI among outpatients as well as to determine the antibiotic resistance pattern of E. coli isolates among outpatients with UTI infections at Shaafi hospital, Mogadishu, Somalia.
Methodology: A cross-sectional study was conducted at Shaafi Hospital, Mogadishu, Somalia. A total of 128 samples were collected from outpatients suspected of UTI and tested through bacteriological investigations and antimicrobial susceptibility tests following the Kirby-Bauer agar disc diffusion method.
Results: E. coli was isolated in 34 (41%) out of the total 83 samples that showed growth followed by Staphylococcus aureus 22 (26.5%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa, 13 (15.7%), Klebsiella pneumoniae 8 (9.6 %) and Proteus spp. 6 (7.2%). E. coli was highly sensitive to nitrofurantoin, 29 (85.3%), and ciprofloxacin (n = 23, 67.6%), and had the highest resistance rate of ceftriaxone, 33 (97.1%). The odds of having UTI were higher in patients with a history of UTI (Odds ratio OR = 0.211, 95% confidence interval CI: 0.080, 0.553) and history of antibiotic use (OR = 0.322, 95% CI: 0.113, 0.917). Increased resistance rate of E. coli against cephalosporins could be due to its excessive use as empirical therapy.
Conclusion: The study indicates that outpatients with UTI could be at high risk of antibiotic resistance, suggesting regular surveillance and monitoring of antibiotics.

Abstract
People with disabilities, specially the blind have major difficulties in moving alone so they usually depend on others. The primary tools they used for movement is the traditional walking stick to detect objects on their ways. Smart sticks, also known as walking canes, or ultra-cane came as a proposed solution to enable blind to identify the world around them more conveniently. Somali people with disabilities suffer more than their worldwide counterparts because of the scarcity of smart mobility aids that they can easily adopt and understand.
In this work, we propose and implement a Somali language speaking smart stick for the visually impaired people to improve their mobility and independence in their daily life. This tool is especially useful for those who have difficulty in comprehending vibration features provided by some smart sticks. The stick can detect objects in the range of between 2 cm to 200 cm. When an object is detected, a sound from the SD Card Module through the airphone will alert the user (in Somali Language), about the object to safely avoid it. A moisture sensor to detect the water and LDR to detect light and dark situations are also provided. C++ programming language was used to implement features in the stick. Our new mobility aid was tested by blind and showed their appreciation and recommended it development to commercial or full usage stage.

Abstract
Background: Wound infection is one of the public health problems worldwide associated with the colonization of bacterial pathogens and resistance to commonly used antibiotics. The study aimed to identify the most common bacterial pathogens that cause wound infections and their antimicrobial susceptibility of isolates from patients at shaafi Hospital in Mogadishu, Somalia. Methods: This study was a descriptive cross-sectional design conducted from January to June - 2020 at shaafi Hospital in Mogadishu –Somalia. A total of 80 patients were taken from wound swab; all specimens were directly cultured on standard media, then Gram stain and Biochemical tests were also done antimicrobial susceptibility test was performed following Standards guidelines and procedures of (CLSI). Results: A total of 80 patients were taken from the wound swab; of these, 25 samples shown significant growth, isolating 38 bacteria strains. The most bacteria that isolated was Staphylococcus aureus 15 (39.47%), followed by Escherichia coli 12 (32%), Klebsiella pneumonia 8 (21%), Proteus Vulgaris 2 (5%), and Pseudomonas aeruginosa 1(3%). Staphylococcus aureus was entirely resistant to penicillin G, Ampicillin, and Methicillin, less sensitive to amoxicillin, and strongly sensitive to gentamicin. Moreover, All isolates of Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumonia, Proteus Vulgaris were sensitive to gentamicin and norfloxacin. In contrast, all isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa were resistant to gentamicin and norfloxacin. Conclusions: The study revealed that bacterial pathogens of wound infection were resistant to commonly used antibiotics in Mogadishu, Somalia, showing an increasing trend of antibiotic-resistant. The study suggested that timely diagnosis with antimicrobial susceptibility is necessary before prescribing appropriate antibiotics. Keywords: Antimicrobial susceptibility test; Antibiotic resistance, Wound infection; Bacteria, Somalia

Abstract
LPG gas in Somalia is the cause of many fires, a factor that often causes fires that claims life and property. Therefore, prevention and safety measures are needed to minimize risks. Seeing this and given the technological developments, this work proposes an intelligent fire alarm and gas leakage detector using Arduino-based and GSM module. This tool is equipped with MQ5, SIM800, and buzzer gas sensors. In an embedded device the system that can convert input data received from the sensor Mq-5 sensor works to detect propane and butane gas, then the system will send an (SMS) alarm to the registered mobile number. Besides being able to send SMS the system also emits a sound that is generated from the buzzer to alert the house occupants. Tests conducted show that the system works as intended.

Abstract
Proper managing of electricity and monitoring its status has become increasingly common in the world over the past few years with the advent of Internet of Things (IoT). To eliminate the inconveniences or drawbacks of the existing approaches of energy management, in this work we propose a centralized management system that remotely controls and monitors electric appliances through a mobile application using IoT and mobile technologies. The most significant feature of this system is the mode-based operation, such that when the user activates the auto-mode, lights and fans will remain turned off if there is enough light in an area of the house.
With the proposed system, the user gets both the option to control or monitor the electrical appliances remotely over the internet through a web portal or through smartphone (Both Android and iOS). The system is developed to fulfill three specific objectives: User-comfort, cost-effectiveness, and real-life implementation. The system was implemented using C programming language and was successfully tested.

Abstract
Communicating with potential candidates of a university or a college is traditionally conducted manually, and it is a highly time and resources consuming. To communicate with candidates on a one-to-one basis is highly appreciated but that would require members of the academic staff to spend several hours to deal with individual students. So, it would be useful to reduce these costs and time. This paper aims to reduce the burden on the admission offices by developing a convincing chatbot that would interact and communicate with candidates in Somali language. Furthermore, Users interact with a social media account. Machine learning algorithms have been developed for the purpose and thousands of question and answer pairs have been gathered as a training set for the system with the consultation of the top admission staffers at JUST. The proposed system has been tested and set up for running on the Heroku Cloud Server and telegram bot is serving as an interface for the users to interact with.

Abstract
Technology innovation has introduced big improvements to enhance career selection processes nowadays. With more tools developed, companies have adopted tools that help them recruit talents more efficiently. This paper proposes a resume parser called pyresparser, which is a python package that is used to extract the relevant information from resumes and analyze it based on the different attributes. Once the resume is uploaded it is saved into a PostgreSQL database ready to show itself to the employers. With the identification of the attributes, the proposed system is directed to adopt a word similarity algorithm for PostgreSQL trigram module to match the skills of the job seekers against the requirements of the job posted by the prospect employers. The system helps the human resource team to find suitable candidates for a particular job and make more informed final decisions or use it as a shortlisting means for ultimate interview sessions.

Abstract
Background: Cancer ranks the leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, with approximately 19.3 million new cases and 10 million deaths. The most common causes of cancer death were cancers of the lung (1.69 million deaths), liver (788,000 deaths), colorectal (774,000 deaths), stomach (754,000 deaths), and breast (571 000 deaths). Cancer rates in Somalia are underreported, national population-based cancer registry in the country is missing to conduct a nationwide prevalence study. The study aimed to estimate the prevalence of cancer and determine the most common organ affected and the existence of Benign or Metastasis among cancer patients. Methods: The study undertook a retrospective cross-sectional design using a quantitative approach. Secondary data from patient records between January 2014 to November 2017, clinically diagnosed with cancer and referred from other hospitals to Kamil diagnostic center for radiological analysis were selected for this study in Mogadishu, Somalia. Results: 583 registered cancer patients, 60.2% (351) were reported in men and 39.8% (232) in women. The primary cancer types were hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) which was diagnosed among 151 (26%) patients, of which 124 (82%) were male, and 27(18%) were female. HCC followed by esophageal carcinoma (EC), which was diagnosed among 97 (17%) patients, of which 50 (52%) were female, in comparison to 47 (48%) were male, followed by renal cell carcinoma (RCC), which was diagnosed among 56 (10%) patients of which 31 (55.4%) were male while 25 (44.6%) were female. Lymphoma was diagnosed in 40 (7%) patients, of which 20 (50%) were male, and 20 (50%) were female. It was also established that metastatic cancer was found among 152 (26%) patients, which is little compared to 431 (73.9%) patients whose cancer was not metastatic. The major organs of metastatic were lymph node 48 (8.2%), pulmonary and hepatic with lymph node each 22 (3.8%), and bones 20 (3.4%). Conclusion: The study reveals an increasing trend of cancer prevalence in Somalia. HCC was found to be the major type, followed by EC. The study recommends that people take timely screening and diagnosis of cancer to stand higher chances of preventing and surviving cancer death. Healthy lifestyles such as a healthy diet, avoiding tobacco, alcohol, risky behaviors, maintaining a healthy weight, vaccination (HBV and HPV), and public health efforts could stem this trend. Keywords: Distribution, Cancer, Metastatic, Organ of metastatic, Somalia.

Abstract
Hepatitis B (HBV) causes potentially fatal liver infection and associated significant morbidity and mortality. It is a public health problem that increases the risk of liver and bile duct carcinoma. This study aimed to assess knowledge and attitude regarding HBV infection among nurses working in Benadir hospital Mogadishu, Somalia Methods: Descriptive hospital-based cross-sectional study design was conducted on nurses working at Benadir Hospital, Mogadishu, Somalia. A representative sample of 92 nurses working in Benadir hospital was recruited for this study during 2020, and a structured questionnaire was used to obtain and collect in-depth information on the nurse's knowledge and attitude towards HBV infection. Results: Of the 92 total respondents, the majority, 66 (72%), were females, and 47 (51%) were young and between the age of 21-30 years. Regarding the educational level, about 51 (55.4%) had a bachelor's degree. The study found that most nurses, 76 (82%), had good knowledge about HBV infection and a positive attitude 78 (85%) towards this infection. Conclusion: The study concluded that most of the nurses working at Benadir hospital had average knowledge of hepatitis Virus infection, mode of transmission, and a positive attitude. The study recommends a further in-depth study on how healthcare provider's knowledge, atttitute, and practice impact tackling the spread of this highly prevalent virus infection in Somalia. Keywords: Knowledge, Attitude, Hepatitis B virus, HBV, Benadir hospital, Somalia.

Abstract
Background: Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH) is generally a challenge in Somalia, particularly in IDP settlements where access to water and sanitation facilities is limited. Children, particularly those under the age of 5 years, mostly fall victim to diseases caused by poor sanitation and hygiene practices. The objective of this study was to evaluate the availability of safe water and sanitation facilities in internally displaced (IDP) camps in kahda district Mogadishu Somalia. Methods: This study was a descriptive cross-sectional baseline assessment. The study areas included 4 IDP camps in Kahda district with a sample size of 163 households, drawn from 270 households from selected 4IDPs. Closed-ended questionnaires and observational checklists were used as data collection tools, and the study employed descriptive statistics with frequencies and percent in tables. Results: Of the total 163 households, about 84 (51.5%) household's water sources were hand-dug well with pump, and Most of the households 100 (61.3%); spent 3km walk to obtain water from their nearest point source. Regarding water consumption per day, about 66(40.5%) households had consumed 120 liters per day and 39 (23.9%) of households with 61-90 liters of water per day, and 38 (23.3%) households with 40 -60 liters. Besides, more than half of respondents, 113 (69.3%), did not have enough water, with a considerable number of households 105 (64.4%) do not perform water treatment to improve the quality of their drinking water. Many households did not have latrines, with the majority of them sharing latrines with neighbors. Those who had latrines were unhygienic, and a majority of the respondents admitted they do not wash their hands after using toilets. Conclusion: The study reveals the low availability of water and sanitation facilities among IDPs in kahda districts. Though they were low socio-economic status groups, health promotion related to infection control measures and maintenance of personal hygiene should be provided

Abstract
In modern days, finding a parking space in a busy city center is often a confusing task and many driver's time and fuel are wasted in the exploration for a vacant spot. This paper describes a prototype for a smart parking system which enables drivers to explore the parking area remotely, spot vacant parking spaces, reserve it for a period, and pay the service through mobile payment system. The smart car parking System (SCPS) is implemented using the ultrasonic and IR sensors, in combination with the usage of the Internet of Things. The drivers can see which parking slot is empty and where to park by sending the data of ultrasonic and IR sensors through a Wi-Fi module that is ESP8266, and NODMCU to any open source easy to use the IoT platform (Google Firebase). The system has been tested and showed that it is a promising solution for parking problems in Mogadishu booming business areas.
