    Despite India witnessing an 88% decadal drop in the weighted price of solar installation, which is among the highest in the world, the share of Solar Roof Top installation has not grown proportionately compared to ground-mounted solar rooftop projects. As per Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) data, the overall installed capacity as of November 2021 was 6 GW, and it is likely to miss the target of 40GW set by the Government Of India by December 2022. One of the major areas for increasing the rooftop installation is the residential segment, given the incentives given by MNRE. The government has tried to do course correction by simplifying the solar installation process in January 2022. However, as previous studies have suggested, this is only one of the problem areas for the slow uptake of Residential Solar Power Plant. In our study, we focus on addressing the financing gap, which is one of the major hurdles in the adoption of solar through decision-based modelling with distribution companies as an aggregator.

    Most bacteria of medical interest grow and develop at pH values around neutrality (pH 7). However, many of these bacteria are also capable of maintaining themselves for long periods of time in acidic environments. The same goes for bacteria that thrive in the environment. Such is the case of some rhizobial bacteria associated with plants, where the acidic pH of the soil could represent a limiting aspect of their growth, however this is not the case because these bacteria can grow at low pH. These bacteria have different mechanisms to survive in acidic environments, which are presented in a general way in this work.

    The food preservatives play an important role in the food industry which increases the life of food and protecting them from spoiling cause by micro-organism. Several investigation have been found that the food preservatives have various health problems leading to liver, kidney, etc. damages, it has genetic effect also if consume long time. The present investigation is carried out to study the effect of food preservative (sodium benzoate) and its amelioration by fenugreek (Trigonella foenum graceum) seed extract in mice (Mus musculus) sperm morphology. Twenty four adult male mice with average weight 25-35 gm have been used. They have been divided into four groups (6 mice to each group).First group included control© with normal diet. The second group was treated with sodium benzoate at a concentration (1.125 mg/ml). The third group was treated with ameliorating agent fenugreek seed at a concentration (200 mg/kg) and the fourth concurrent (sodium benzoate + fenugreek) group with same concentration. After given the treatment of 35 days, the animals were sacrificed and samples were taken for the study of sperm head morphology. The result shows that the sperm abnormalities in sodium benzoate (E211) were significantly higher (11.08 %) than control (2.23%). The concurrent treatment of fenugreek seed extract with sodium benzoate (E211) has (2.28%) value. This value is highly significant then sodium benzoate treated group and almost equal to the control group. Different types of cytological abnormalities were observed in this investigation. The various abnormalities including pin-headed, funnel shaped, hook-less, club-headed, banana shaped, coiled tailed, double-headed, hammer shaped, spear shaped were observed.

    Purpose: To study the outcomes of various intervention in high risk preterm with retinopathy of prematurity along with its incidence and risk factors. Materials and Methods: High risk preterm infants with gestational age ≤ 34 weeks and birth weight ranging from 500 grams to 2.0 kg were examined for ROP. Neonates having unstable neonatal course along with risk factors were referred to ophthalmology department for screening and appropriate interventions were undertaken. Results: Amongst 208 high risk babies(102 female child, 106 male child) ROP was detected in 77.88% of babies. 29.62% had ROP with Zone I vascularization, 62.96% had ROP with Zone II vascularization and 07.40% had ROP with Zone III vascularization. After grouping and staging, 114 were kept under observation, 22 needed anti-VEGF (Vascular Endothelial Growth Factors) agents, 22 needed intervention with laser photocoagulation and 4 were referred after explaining the nil visual prognosis. Timing of intervention for anti-VEGFs: 12 of 22 were treated on presentation, 10 of 22 within 1 week. For laser treatment, 8 of 22 were treated on presentation, 4 of 22 between 1 to 2 weeks, 2 of 22 between 2 to 4 weeks and 8 of 22 after 4 weeks. Conclusion: Major risk factor in our study which contributed to high risk preterm were oxygen therapy, NICU admission with ventilation and multiple pregnancy which predisposed these babies to ROP. Favourable outcomes: Were noted in 87/114 babies under observation, 21/22 babies in anti VEGF treatment group and 18/22 in laser photocoagulation treated babies.

    The purpose of this research was toestablish the relationship between human capital as one of the key factors and performance of government aided primary schools in Isingiro district, Uganda. A cross sectional research design and post-positivist paradigm were used to collect data from 118 government aided primary schools in Isingiro district, Uganda where 475 respondents participated in the study. The study used closed-ended questionnaires, interview guide and checklists. The schools to be included were selected using simple random sampling and were considered as unit of analysis while the respondents who included District officials, head teachers, teachers and school management committee members formed the unit of enquiry, these were selected purposively based on the knowledge they had on the subject matter. Each school selected, provided the information from the respondents who in this case were the head teacher, two (2) teachers and a chairperson of school management committee member. The research was guided by the null hypothesis, Ho1: Human capital has no relationship with performance of government aided primary schools in Isingiro district, Uganda assuming other factors constant. The findings of the study revealed a positive significant relationship between human capital issues and performance of government aided primary school at 99% level of confidence (r=.385, p<.01), thus rejecting the null hypothesis (Ho1). The results signify that improvedhuman capital is highly associated with good performance of government aided primary schools in Isingiro district, Uganda. The Unique contribution of this studywas, to suggest to planners and managers of government aided primary schools that, since human capital is important for the improvement of primary school performance, it is advisable that the government should impose the human capital law for government aided primary school teachers which possibly caters for teachers’ productivity when given some due care and attention. In addition, the Ministry of Education & Sports should create social benefits for government aided primary school teachers as a means to enhance their wellbeing and motivate them. Moreover, it is also recommended that government aided primary schools’ teachers be given some training and professional workshops to increase their experience and productivity which could probably motivate them and hence perform better at schools.

    Diabetes Mellitus is a group of metabolic diseases in which defects in insulin secretion or action result in elevated blood glucose. It is a major public health issue that affects over 285 million people globally. Diabetes is sighted as one of the leading causes of blindness, kidney failure, cardiovascular events and lower limb. Data from the United Kingdom Prospective Diabetes Study (UKPDS) and the Diabetes Control and Complications Trial (DCCT) shows that controlling hyperglycemia is critical for the reduction of negative clinical outcomes in diabetic patients. AGEs, oxidative stress, low grade inflammation and neovascularization of vasa vasorum paves the way for developing diabetic complications. The aim of the article is to review the published studies that examine the complications of Type 2 diabetes and the role of pharmacists on diabetes prevention and care. Pharmacists should identify the patients having diabetes and patient education should be provided. Humanistic outcomes like quality of life must also be taken into account while considering the clinical outcomes of the diabetes patients.

    The root-bark of Dalbergia saxatilis (Fabaceae), a plant used traditionally in ethnomedicine in Nigeria, was extracted with 95% ethanol to give the crude extract. The crude extract was partitioned into acidic, basic and neutral polar and non-polar fractions. Preliminary phytochemical screening of D. saxatilis root bark crude extract revealed the presence of alkaloids, tannins, phenols, flavonoids, terpenoids, and glycosides. The antimicrobial screening was carried out on the crude extract and the fractions and all the samples were active against the test organisms: Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella .typhi, Escherichia coli, Bacillus substilis and Candida albicans .The basic fraction was the least active against S. typhi while the neutral non-polar (hexane) fraction was the most active against B. substilis. Column chromatographic separation of the biologically active hexane fraction gave fractions which on GC-MS analysis and by comparison with the standard library computer MS data led to the identification of two azulene-type sesquiterpenes,1, 2,3,5,6, 7,8,8a-octahydro-1,4-dimethyl-7-(1-methylethenyl)azulene,and1H-3a,7-methanoazulene,2,3,4,7,8,8a-hexahydro-3,6,8,8-tetramethyl-.The presence of these constituents in the plant extract may account for the antimicrobial properties of the plant. Thus, the root bark of D. saxatilis can be harnessed for anti-infective purposes.

    Restraint stress significantly prolonged immobility time in forced swim and tail suspension tests for mice, indicating that restraint stress causes depression-related behaviors. Moreover, restraint stress significantly prolonged the retention latency in the water maze test, indicating that restraint stress causes spatial memory impairment. Phosphorylation of glycogen synthase kinase 3β (GSK-3β) in the hippocampus and hypothalamus from mice with restraint stress was significantly reduced as compared with that for mice without restraint stress, indicating that GSK-3β is activated by restraint stress. In contrast, tau phosphorylation was not affected both in the hippocampus and hypothalamus from mice with restraint stress. Taken together, the results of the present study suggest that GSK-3β is a pivotal factor for stress-induced depression and dementia, independently of tau phosphorylation.

    The main objective of the study is to measure women's perceptions of women's empowerment strategies by promoting women's entrepreneurship in Côte d'Ivoire. It is the result of a quantitative study conducted with a sample of 380 women divided according to the quota method. The analysis of the data shows that the entrepreneurial impulse of women stumbles on sociocultural and structural constraints. At the level of socio-cultural barriers, their perceptions of the company, their different roles in society, their levels of education and the perception of the very management of activities by their family members or their communities are crucial in the success of their activities. Structurally, women's entrepreneurial initiatives are hindered by (i) lack of information on the financing procedures of banking institutions, (ii) ignorance of formalization procedures or statements by companies, (iii) low motivation in the desire to formalize or declare his business among women, (iv) the lack of follow-up of women by the rulers, and (v)the national communication strategy on inappropriate female entrepreneurship In order to stimulate the entrepreneurial dynamic among women, it is up to the various actors not to underestimate the importance of the socio-cultural dimension in the communication on women's entrepreneurship and to organize regular awareness-raising activities. Training in the field of women's entrepreneurship.

    Myocardial infraction is characterized by necrosis of heart cells because it doesn’t get enough blood flow to heart due to blockage of blood clots. Depression is one of the common, frequent complications occur after an attack of myocardial infraction, its impact affects long term quality of life to a higher incidence of mortality of myocardial infarction patients. Thus, the present consensus statement aims to provide an overview of the prevalence, risk factors associated with depression followed by a myocardial infarction, impact of depression in a myocardial infarction patient, diagnosis and its treatment options. Overall research studies show that patients with myocardial infarction have higher risk of all-cause mortality, cardiac mortality and recurrence of cardiac events if they have post-myocardial infraction depression. The patients with history of either myocardial infarction or depression, complication that occurs during hospitalization, patients with infirm social relationships, biological imbalance and physical illness are the contributing risk factors of depression among myocardial infarction patients. Future studies are required to find out the exact relationship between depression and myocardial infraction. Selective Serotonin Receptor Inhibitors are the better drug of choice among all anti-depressive drugs. Cardiac rehabilitation is also very effective. Early diagnosis and management of depression after myocardial infarction attack take the edge of future complications.

    Today, 3D printing is most commonly used in dentistry for the manufacture of drill guides for dental implants, study models for prosthodontics, orthodontics and surgery, and the fabrication of copings and frameworks for implant and dental restorations. However, we are yet to see forensic odontologists, lawyers, and expert witnesses appreciate the advantages of 3D printing for its use in court of law. The major application of 3D printing in forensic odontology includes bite mark analysis, 3D-computed tomography facial reconstruction, dental age estimation, sex determination, and physical models. The use of 3D digitizing systems such as laser scanners, structured light scanners, photogrammetry, etc. has revolutionized the field of forensic sciences. The application of these technologies also allows prompt collection of data with minimal degradation and reduction in human errors. Thus, these 3D digitizing technologies can be wisely adapted to advance forensic sciences. Though, the applications in this domain are in the stage of infancy, it definitely has a promising future

    Animated pedagogical content when combined with affective tactics aims to stimulate interest, if not enthusiasm, to the learning community. Asstudentscombine both formal learning systems and socio-cultural influences, pledging human figures as models for deploying human-computer interaction processes becomes a commitment strategy appealing to the senses. Therefore, learning objects in their transformational route to acquiring multiagent system characteristics, actively encourage autonomy, socialibility, student models that transfer their universe of discourse to the Internet, adaptability, and intelligent cognitive evaluation. As a result, interactive learning involves the transmutation of classic instructional structures to arrangements that provide incentives for cooperative action over computerized environments, for both special education and regular schooling.

    In this letter, millimeter wave attenuation by flat sea surface covered by foam is reported. This was achieved by developing an analytical model of foam-covered sea surface using the finite difference method (FDM) method, which is a solution to the Parabolic Wave Equation (PWE) method. The PWE has been widely used to solving Electromagnetic (EM) wave extinction and radio wave propagation in random media problems. The FDM method investigates attenuation of EM waves propagating through slices of sea foam layer as functions of frequency, foam layer thickness, polarization and angle of incidence. Results obtainedshowed that attenuation increases with the depth of sea foam layers and decreases with increase in propagation angle for various WindSat frequencies.

    We report a case of a 40-year-old man who had been seen for a sudden onset of a vertical binocular diplopia in the left lateral gaze. The patient had high blood pressure, was an active smoker and overweight. His clinical examination showed a complete paralysis of the left VI cranial nerve. Brain MRI in vascular sequence with injection showed a left pontine hypersignal in diffusion (left pontine stroke). Also the presence of mega-dolicho basilar artery associated with a fusiform aneurysm, with parietal thrombus measuring 20 mm in axial section with circulating lumen of 8 mm and a significant mass effect on the left protuberance, without any signs of rupture or bleeding. A surgical therapeutic abstention was decided, the patient was treated by antihypertensive and antiplatelet drugs. Brain MRI with angio-MRI sequence is important for the diagnosis and the search for mega-dolicho basilar artery complications (ischemia, hemorrhage and compression). Complex aneurysms of the basilar artery represent a therapeutic challenge, both neurosurgical and endovascular.

    BACKGROUND: General anesthesia is needed for caesarean section in situations such as obstetric emergencies (ecclampsia, acute fetal distress etc) or when spinal anesthesia is contraindicated (patient refusal, thrombocytopenia etc). Regardless of indication, it is desirable to keep dose of volatile anesthetics to a minimum so as to decrease their effects on the neonate without causing a risk of awareness in the mother. OBJECTIVES: To compare efficacy of Sevoflurane 1% and Isoflurane 0.5% as inhalational anesthetic for maintenance of general anaesthesia in cesarean section. PARTICIPANTS: 50 term parturients with ASA II and III planned for elective LSCS under general anesthesia. METHODS: Patients were divided into two groups. Group A received 1% sevoflurane with N2O for maintenance of anesthesia while group B received 0.5% isoflurane with N2O. Bispectral Index (BIS), HR, NIBP, SpO2, EtCO2 and Etsevo/ Etiso were recorded at 16 designated points throughout the procedure. Post-operatively patients were interviewed for any recall of intraoperative events. RESULTS: From the time of skin incision until uterine closure, average values for BIS were higher for group A (Sevoflurane 1%) than for group B (Isoflurane 0.5%) but values in both groups were below 60. From abdominal mopping till the end of procedure, values for group A continued to be higher than that for group B and values in group A reached above 60 in some patients. None of the patients had any intraoperative awareness as confirmed by post-operative interviews. CONCLUSIONS: Isoflurane 0.5% with N2O for maintenance of general anesthesia seems to be adequate for preventing intraoperative awareness during LSCS under while Sevoflurane 1% may be inadequate for maintenance of anesthesia in some patients.

    A supernumerary tooth is a development anomaly of number characterized by the presence of tooth in addition to the normal series. The prevalence of this anomaly varies between 0.15% and 1.9%. Clinical and radiological signs are constant. Surgial extraction is an unavoidable therapeutic step that can be associated to interceptive or orthodontic treatement. Methods: We performed a review of literature about diagnosis and management of supernumerary teeth in pediatric population. PubMed, Cochrane library and Google scholar were databases used. We reported 4 clinical cases of young patients with different types and numbers of supernumerary teeth, treated at the principal military hospital of Tunis. We noticed clinical signs, radiological ones and detailed treatment plan. Results: Thirteen articles (13) were reviewed. Boys were more affected than girls with sex ratio 2:1. Mean age at diagnosis was 9.76 YO. Clinical signs associated were respectively delayed dental eruption (N =) 61.53 %, swelling (N=4) 30.76 % , space loss (N=3) 23.07% and over-retained primary teeth (N=3) 23.07%. Besides , impacted tooth (N=5) 38.46% and radio-opaque images ( N=10) 76.92 % were the most radiological findings associated. Mean number of supernumerary teeth diagnosed per patient was 1.69. Mesiodens (N= 5) 38.46%, odontoma (N= 3)23.07% , dens invaginus (N=1)= 7.69% and tooth like appearence (N=1)7.69 % were most subtype described. Regular follow-up of 5.92 months, was mentionned in (N=9) 69.23% of the retained articles. Conclusion: Supernumerary teeth requires a multidisciplinary management Ideally, examination and treatment planning should be undertaken within pediatric dentist , oral surgeon and orthodonstist.

    Les attaques terroristes sont à l’évidence aujourd’hui, un des défis majeurs des institutions de sécurité publique en Côte d’Ivoire. En l’espace de quelques mois, la Côte d’Ivoire a été victime de plusieurs attaques terroristes dans les zones frontalières avec le Burkina Faso et le Mali faisant des morts de façon récurrente parmi les forces armées ivoiriennes. En dépit du système sécuritaire mis en place par les autorités pour prévenir ce phénomène, la menace devient de plus en plus persistante et insaisissable. La Côte d’Ivoire demeure pourtant, une plaque tournante du trafic international des drogues et stupéfiants depuis plusieurs décennies. Cette contribution scientifique a pour objectif d’analyser la corrélation entre le trafic illicite des drogues et stupéfiants et le développement du terrorisme en Côte d’Ivoire. La méthodologie comporte un guide d’entretien semi-structuré auprès des acteurs des systèmes sécuritaires de lutte contre le trafic illicite des stupéfiants et du terrorisme, les responsables administratifs, les leaders communautaires et religieux, les responsables d’organisations non gouvernementales nationales et internationales de promotion des droits humains et de prévention des conflits, les responsables d’organisations de jeunesses, vivant dans les villes deKorhogo, Ouangolodougou et Tengrela. Les résultats indiquent que le développement du terrorisme en Côte d’Ivoire est certes, lié à l’endémie du trafic illicite des drogues et stupéfiants, mais aussi, à la porosité des frontières et à la faiblesse du système sécuritaire, la pauvreté, le chômage, la récurrence des conflits communautaires et le phénomène de l’orpaillage clandestin qui sévissent dans ces zones frontalières.

    The well-being of building occupants depends primarily on their health, comfort and the safety conditions in which they can carry out their activities. The search for comfort by building occupants means that the building sector remains a major source of energy consumption and pollutant emissions worldwide. Countries in tropical regions, such as Benin, have a relatively warm climate, which requires appropriate technologies and comfort prediction models to provide the desired level of comfort for building users. It is commonly accepted that good comfort conditions require the coexistence of four main components: hygrothermal, acoustic, visual and olfactory. The simultaneous study of these four components proves to be complex due to the poor knowledge of the relationship between measurements and the subjective evaluation of physical and chemical parameters or the lack of consensus on certain indicators. This paper focuses on a literature review on the overall comfort of building occupants in the tropical climate. A synthesis of the different models and characteristics of comfort components was presented as well as approaches to global comfort indicators.

    Background: The action of sodium hypochlorite is to form an oxidative layer in radicular dentin. Antioxidant not only removes the oxygen species but also increase the bond strength of sealer. Aim: To compare and evaluate the push out bond strength of resin-based sealer to the radicular dentin treated with antioxidants and diode laser to decrease oxidizing effect of sodium hypochlorite. Methods: Sixty single rooted permanent teeth were selected and decoronated. All the teeth were prepared with ProTaper Universal rotary system up to F3 and canals were irrigated using 3 mL of 5.25% sodium hypochlorite during instrumentation. The canals were flushed with normal saline as a final irrigating solution. Then samples were treated with antioxidants and diode laser according to following group: Group I – Cocoa bean extract (CBE), Group II – 10% Sodium ascorbate, Group III – 1.5W Diode laser, Group IV – 5ml Saline. All samples were obturated with Gutta percha and AH Plus sealer. Samples were sectioned to obtaining disc thickness of 2mm. Push out bond strength was performed using universal testing machine. The data was analysed using one way ANOVA and post hoc Tukey test. Results: Cocoa bean extract and Diode laser showed significantly higher bond strength values compared to control group (P < 0.05) even so, sodium ascorbate showed equivalent bond strength. Adhesive failures were predominant in all groups. Conclusion: cocoa bean extract as an herbal antioxidant can give better treatment outcome when treated with resin based sealer.

    Este trabalho apresenta uma análise acerca da política de drogas adotada no Brasil e seus efeitos em diversos campos da sociedade, que a caracterizam como uma verdadeira guerra. Por meio de um apanhado histórico, verificou-se como essa ‘guerra às drogas’ surgiu, e como ela influenciou no aumento da violência, no encarceramento em massa, e na violação de direitos humanos. A metodologia de pesquisa foi quali-quantitativa, e sob uma perspectiva de direitos humanos, com levantamento de dados e análise de discursos. Tais resultados apontam o quanto os dispositivos proibicionistas são imprecisos, e dão margem a preconceitos sociais e racismo em sua aplicação, o que resultam em superlotação de pessoas selecionadas, nas penitenciárias. As drogas devem ser levadas apenas como um problema de saúde pública, que é o que elas são.

    Background: Reversal of ileostomy after surgery and chemoradiation creates a new group of patients with the potential for eventual postoperative complications. We aim to compare the postoperative morbidity of colorectal cancer patients with that of patients who underwent reversal of ileostomy for benign colorectal conditions. Methods: A retrospective analysis of patients undergoing ileostomy reversal was performed. Demographic, clinicopathologic features of patients, morbidity, initial diagnoses as well as rates of postoperative complications were analyzed. All complications after reversal of ileostomy were registered and classified according to Clavien-Dindo severity score. Results: 61 patients were divided in two groups; group A (21/61, 34.4%), included patients with benign colorectal diseases. The average time interval to reversal was 5.6±2.3 months and the in-hospital stay was 9.6±4.64 days. The overall complication rate was 33.3% (7/21) with wound infection rate at 14.3% (3/21). In group B (40/61, 65.6%), patients with malignancies maintained the ileostomy for an average of 8.2±3.3 months. In-hospital stay was 15.47±24 days and the overall complication rate was 65% (26/40). Wound infection was the most common complication with an incidence rate of 22.5%. The majority of complications in both groups was classified as Clavien-Dindo II and IIIa (14/61, 23%) while 9 patients (9/61,14.8%) had Clavien- Dindo score IIIb and IV. Conclusion: Reversal of ileostomy in cancer patients is correlated with a high complication rate. Wound infection and postoperative ileus were the most common complications. Cancer patients with reversal ileostomy had increased hospital in stay and delayed closure compared to patients with benign diseases.

    The plant microbiome (epiphytic, endophytic, and rhizospheric) is crucial for plant growth, development, and soil health. Plants and rhizospheric soil are rich natural resources that harbor microbial hotspots and play important roles in global nutrient balance and ecosystem function. The varied assemblage of microorganisms are important components of soil-plant systems, where they interact intensely in the rhizosphere/phyllosphere or as endophytes. Plant growth promoting (PGP) microorganisms have emerged as a valuable and promising tool for achieving long-term agricultural sustainability. Plant growth promoting (PGP) microorganisms are bacteria that promote plant growth,they have emerged as a vital and promising instrument for agriculture's long-term viability. PGP microbes promote plant growth and development directly or indirectly, either by releasing plant growth regulators/phytohormones, phosphorus, potassium, and zinc solubilization, biological nitrogen fixation, or by producing siderophore, ammonia, HCN, and other secondary metabolites that are antagonistic to pathogenic microbes.The PGP microbes belonged to different phylum of archaea (Euryarchaeota); bacteria (Acidobacteria, Actinobacteria, Bacteroidetes, Deinococcus-Thermus, Firmicutes and Proteobacteria) and fungi (Ascomycota and Basidiomycota), which include different genera namely Achromobacter, Acinetobacter, Agrobacterium, Alcaligenes, Arthrobacter, Aspergillus, Azoarcus, Azospirillum, Azotobacter, Bacillus, Beijerinckia, Brevibacterium, Burkholderia, Collimonas,Curtobacterium, Diplococcus, Enterobacter, Erwinia, Flavobacterium, Flexibacterium, Gluconoacetobacter, Haloarcula, Halobacterium, Halococcus, Haloferax, Herbaspirillum, Klebsiella, Methylobacterium, Microbiospora, Micrococcus, Micromomospora, Nocardioides, PaeniBacillus, Pantoea, Penicillium, Piriformospora, Planomonospora, Pseudomonas, Rhizobium, Serratia, Streptomyces, Thermomonospora and Xanthomonas. For sustainable agriculture, these PGP microorganisms might be utilized as biofertilizers/bioinoculants instead of chemical fertilizers.

    Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) affects 1% to 2% of primary arthroplasties and in 4% of revision arthroplasties.The frequency of PJI cases continues to climb in tandem with the increasing number of implantations. Complex treatment options, including numerous surgical modifications and long-term antibiotic treatment, arerequired to manage PJI. It’s crucial to have a correct diagnosis, which includes identifying the infecting microorganisms and their antibiotic susceptibility, before deciding on the best treatment method to get rid of the infection. When PJI is ignored or undertreated, it causes infection to persist and repeated surgical revisions, resulting in poor function or impairment and a significant reduction in quality of life. ¹ This review article provide an insight about the risk factors, diagnostic methods, treatment options for Periprosthetic infection.

    The Kollam coast in South India is a thickly populated area where the possibility of exploitation groundwater sources and contamination is high. The quality of groundwater is very important for various purposes. For the analysis of groundwater, fourteen dug wells in the seven coastal wards of Kollam Corporation were selected randomly and water samples were collected for the physico-chemical analysis. It was found that all physico-chemical parameters in the well water except total alkalinity, total hardness and, calcium are under permissible limits according to BIS (2012) drinking water quality. Based on the hardness values obtained, 42.9% of the wells are with moderately hard water and 35.7% of the wells in the coastal area are with hard water. Saltwater intrusion in groundwater sources was calculated using Base Exchange Index (BEX) and results show that 42% of wells are having saltwater intrusion. Irrigation suitability of the groundwater samples was measured by calculating magnesium hazard, sodium percent, and sodium adsorption ratio. Magnesium hazards of all well water are below 50%. Based on the sodium percent values obtained, 7% of the well water samples in the study area are under excellent class, 78% of the samples are under good class and 14% of the samples are under permissible class. The values of the Sodium adsorption ratio of all well water samples studied are under excellent class. It indicates that the groundwaters in the dug wells of the coastal area are suitable for irrigation purposes. The study shows that well water in the Kollam coastal area can be consumed after purification. Water purifiers with reverse a osmosis systems can be used to remove hardness and coliforms from the groundwater.

    A study related to different formulations of vegetative cell of Pseudomonas fluorescence (Pseu-4) and Bacillus polymyxa (B.pol-15) together with challenge inoculation of pyricularia oryzae in the enhancement of IRS in Rice. Pyricularia oryzae disease patho systems was studied under pot culture with ADT-36. “It was observed that the application of (Pseu-4), (B.pol-15) as co-aggregates altered the biochemical and physiological parameters viz., reducing sugar and non-reducing sugars, Phenol content and defence mechanism by means of producing enzymes such as perocidase, polyphenol oxidase, (PPO) of rice plant to a significant level followed by co-inoculation and vegetative cell applications of PGPR”. When compare to that the co-aggregates of PGPR was found to augment all enzymes for the defence enzymes of rice plant, where as reduction and non-reducing sugar level also recorded, there by leads to reduction in Pyricularia oryzae incidence in rice grown of Tanjore regions of Tamil Nadu. EPS biosynthesis of PGPR cells during co-aggregation process might act as the defense mechanism of ISR, pathosystem, where as vegetative forms and co-inoculation processes does not produced of EPS and also responded poorly for the ISR pathosystem.

    Uremic encephalopathy is a toxic metabolic disorder rarely associated with acute kidney injury or chronic kidney disease. It is more readily recognized when the onset of uremia is rapid as in acute kidney injury but it can also be severe in chronic kidney disease. Post renal azotemia is a common urological condition that presupposes prompt treatment. A 4.5 year old male Domestic short hair cat weighing around 5.2 kg was presented to Small animal Critical care unit of Madras Veterinary College Teaching Hospital with the history of vomiting, not voiding urine, and seizures. General clinical examination revealed reduced appetite, dull attitude,pale mucous membrane and normal temperature. On palpation of abdomen turgidurinary bladder was noticed. The blood sample was collected and sent for hematology and biochemistry profile evaluation which revealed relative neutrophilia, azotemia and hyperphosphatemia. On radiography, no cystic and urethral calculi were visualized. Tom cat catheter was fixed using standard protocol and urine was relieved. Urine sample was collected and sent for urine analysis which revealed proteinuria. Owner was advised to drain the urine frequently. The animal was treated with fluid therapy and broad spectrum antibiotics. On review the animal condition was improved.

    Media activism has been playing a significant role to bring forth several keys issues such as sexual abuse, rape, female feticide, communal riots, etc. in the recent past. Media deserves a fair share of appreciation for mirroring societal, cultural and political issues to the forefront of our society from time to time. Perhaps, in the absence of proactive media such issues may not have come to the cognizance of the public. However, there are instances of media over emphasizing less important issues or extending more publicity to trivial issues or ignoring verification of facts. The proposed chapter will focus on selected case studies to identify, understand and explain the significance, applicability and effect of different communication theories in respect to media activism. The chapter includes relevant and authentic secondary information available in public domain such as newspaper and magazine articles, blogs, social media posts, etc. The qualitative analysis technique incorporates 16 cases of media activism for discussion and result. The cases –Save Tigers (1973), Assam Movement (1979-1985), Sikh Riots (1984), Kargil War (1999) , Jessica Lal Murder (1999),Gujarat Riots (2002), Greenathon (2008), Anti-Corruption Movement by Anna Hazare(2011), Nirbhaya Movement (2012), Loksabha Elections (2014), #Selfie with daughter (2015), #Metoocampaign (2018, in India), Anti CAA-Protest (2019), #RightToBreathe (2020) ,SSR Case (2020) and Farmers Protest (2020) are included for the study. The outcome of the study is expected to throw some lights to comprehend the media strategies and techniques applied and the effect of dissemination of information on the targeted audience from the perspective of communication theories. The result of study may help to identify and understand the extent of the effectiveness of media to nourish the society.

    Background: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) has become the gold standard treatment for gallstone disease. Though mostly safe occasionally it can be difficult due to various problems faced during surgical procedure. Anticipation of likely difficulty can help in avoiding complications. Methods: With the aim of identifying various predictors of difficulty and their correlation with likely difficulty this prospective study on 50 adults undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy for symptomatic cholelithiasis was undertaken. Various clinical, radiological and biochemical predictors and frequency and type of intraoperative difficulty was recorded. Results: In present study adverse clinical factors only showed significant predictive value (p value - 0.005). Adverse radiological predictors although showing trend towards, did not achieve statistical significance (p value 0.065). In clinical predictors duration of symptoms >1yr, History of acute cholecystitis and BMI >30 showed statistically significant association. Age >50yrs, Male gender, radiological predictors (Thickened gall bladder wall, small contracted gall bladder, Single large impacted stone) and deranged LFT did not show significant predictive value. Conclusions: Clinical predictors are most reliable factors. Use of good clinical judgement regarding possibility of and likely difficulty along with understanding of available resources is important in making decision in each case.

    Arthropod-borne infectious viral diseases continue to plague mankind and are not causally treatable. The source of infection is often unknown, and the initial symptoms of patients may be vague, merely influenzalike, though progression to severe disease and, potentially, death may follow. This review selects and presents five such diseases, borne by mosquitoes: Dengue and yellow fever of the tropics and subtropics; West Nile virus disease, St. Louis encephalitis virus disease,and disease caused by encephalitic California serogroup viruses, which all three affect inhabitants of temperate zones (but not limited to). These currently relevant diseases are described regarding transmission highlights, viral reservoir animals and mosquito vectors, symptoms, and regions affected, aiming at raising the preventive and early clinical awareness.
