ABSTRACT: Fish is a limbless cold blooded vertebrae animal with gills and fins, living wholly in water. Fish farming is practiced in different parts of the World including Ethiopia. It is concentrated in Lake Tana and Rift valley lakes of the country. Even though Ethiopia has a beautiful water bodies with total surface area of 13,637 km² that have a potential to produce 94,541 tons annually, but the country only produce 45,610 tons of fish per year from both capture and Aquaculture fisheries, because of many constraints like: post harvest loss, poor infrastructure, less access to fishing materials, lack of market chain, over fishing, urbanization, agricultural expansion, wet land degradation, water hyacinth, climate change and fish disease, just like all other animals fish also suffer from various diseases and effects of pollutants. Fish disease such as:- viral, bacterial, fungal and parasitic fish diseases have a significant effect on fish production.

ABSTRACT: Geriatric dysmobility syndrome (DMS) is a public health concern for the elderly. However, a comprehensive self-rated assessment of exercise in the elderly with DMS has rarely been validated. Using a simple effective self-rated dichotomous EQ-5D questionnaire, we aimed to assess the impact of line dancing exercise on older adults with DMS. Via line dancing training exercise, we did survey to investigate the customer value on loyalty included 199 older adults living in an elderly community with a mean age of 68±2 years, of whom 76 diagnosed with DMS. According to their wishes, we arranged the participants either into line dancing group (IG) or control group (CG) via the estimation of self-rated EQ-5D questionnaire, Cox and Logistic regression models to assess the impact of line dancing exercise on older adults with DMS. We calculated odds ratio, predicted probability, hazard ratio (HR), and recovery rate (RR) in comparison between the IG and CG. In crosstabulation analysis, the hazard ratio for DMS in IG compared to CG was (HR, 0.836, 95% C.I., 0.687-1.018, p<0.005). Within 24 weeks, the hazard ratio changed significantly (HR, 5.365, 95% C.I., 3.478-8.275, p<0.005). Through a binary logistic regression model, DMS was considered as the outcome and self-rated dichotomous EQ-5D total score as a predictor, at baseline, the odds ratio was (OR, 1.269, 95% C.I., 0.707-2.278, P>0.05). After 24 weeks of follow-up, in IG, exercise impact described by (OR, 0.05, 95% C.I., 0.6-0.079, P<0.001). The Cox regression model predicted that the elderly with an EQ-5D total score of 7 had a 99% rehabilitation from DMS after 18 weeks and a 45% in 6 weeks. Relapse rate was low to 0.1% in these short-term 24 weeks study and neglected. This study revealed the impact of the line dancing exercise on the older adults with dysmobility syndrome in 24 weeks via the simple effective self-rated EQ-5D analysis as well as Cox and Logistic regression models.
