In Egypt, trachoma is hyper endemic and one of the causes of blindness, which still a serious
public health problem in Rural Egypt. The purpose of this study was to detect the prevalence
of trachoma among children from one to six years in Shobrament village at Giza Governorate.
The research design for this project was a descriptive design which describes the prevalence
of trachoma as well as assesses the demographic data, environmental condition and hygienic
measures. All children between 1-6 years who were available at their homes or in the
nurseries during the time of data collection were included in this study. This project was done
through three phases , initial phase (training for data collectors about detection of signs ,
symptoms and complications of trachoma )administrative phase ,intervention phase (data
collectors examined children eyes for trachoma , referral was done for all trachomatous and
the interviewing ques onnaire was completed). Total of 1802 out of them were detected with
trachoma. As well as 24.4% of trachoma prevalence among children was in nursery schools
while 75% of children were examined at home. Results denoted that the environmental
variables were highly significance and correlated with the prevalence of trachoma. Negative
correla on was detected between trachoma and hygienic measures (P<0.oo1). Based upon
projects findings; increasing of mothers of mothers' awareness through a recommended
program regarding prevention and control of trachoma are needed , also fathers training is
essential for nurses on the three levels of trachoma prevention to promote community
awareness.

This paper is concerned with the evaluation of perfOrmance indicators of
Information Systems Project Management (IS-PM). It clarifies the relationships
between IS-I’M domains, performance metrics. quality metrics, and performance
indicators. This paper presents an elaborated list of quality metrics for IS-PM. Based
on. these IS-PM quality metrics and a combination of statistical techniques, we built a
model for calculating IS-PM performance indicators. The quality reviewers can use
this model to evaluate and track the performance of IS projects managers.
