The level of circulating blood platelets below which a prolonged bleeding time can be found, is somewhat dependent on the age of the platelets at hand. However, when studying the appearance of red cells in the lymph of animals during experimental thrombocytopenia, no such critical level could be found at all (I. Aursncs, Scand. J. Haemat. 13, 184-195). Thus very low levels of circulating blood platelets with markedly prolonged bleeding time can be seen in animals with no red cell leakage to their lymph.Those observations have now been somewhat extended by observing the same two-pmeters in rabbits soon after their production of blood platelets has been completely stopped by a more heavy dose of whole body irradiation. Abnormal leakage of red cells to lymph (drained from the ears which had been shielded during the irradiation) the often occurred at levels of 100-400,000 platelets per μl, whereas the bleeding times in the same animals were usually not significantly prolonged until the platelet concentration fell below 50,000 per μl blood.An explanation for the two described phenomena would be that the vascular supportive effect and the haemostatic effect of blood platelets are dependent on two different mechanisms.

Purpose: In a Teaching Personal and Social Responsibility (TPSR) program, Hellison noted that transferring responsibility values to areas beyond the gym was the most important aspect of a responsibility-based program. The purpose of this study was to examine how the use of guided discovery strategies in a TPSR program impacts and promotes how elementary students construct meaning and action related to responsibility values. Method: The participants were 12 second and third graders who attended an underserved public elementary school and were part of an after-school program. In the TPSR program, participants engaged in cooperative activities and researcher-led discussions, using the guided discovery teaching style, to promote transfer of life skills. Results: The findings indicate that the students better understood the meaning of responsible behaviors following an 8-week TPSR after-school program that included a heavy dose of the guided discovery teaching style. This, in turn, suggests that the guided discovery teaching style served to stimulate the transfer of these responsibility behaviors beyond the program. Discussion and Conclusion: Transfer is challenging to facilitate. Having a program that uses the scaffolded approach of guided discovery may be a key component in transferring responsible behaviors to areas outside of a physical activity program.

It is generally accepted at present that during cleavage in echinoderms, amphibians, and fishes, the nuclei do not have specific functions in regulating development, their role being at this time restricted to participation in the processes of cleavage (Schechtman & Nishihara, 1955). Eggs devoid of nuclei sometimes begin cleavage which may proceed up to the stage of the late blastula. Extirpation or inactivation of nuclei may be achieved through the separation of the nuclear region of the egg by means of centrifugation (Harvey, 1940); through extirpation of the female nucleus followed by fertilization with sperm inactivated by a heavy dose of radiation (Briggs, Green, & King, 1951); through spontaneous degeneration of the male nucleus during artificial androgenesis (Stauffer, 1945); and by means of other techniques. Exposure of early cleavage stages in amphibians (Mangold & Peters, 1956; Sanides, 1956) and fishes (Neyfakh, 1956a) to heavy doses of ionizing radiation also leads to arrest of development at the late blastula stage.

AbstractA new formation method for an ultra-low resistivity contact and structural analysis are discussed. In this study, a minimum contact resistivity of 6.9× 10−9 Ω·cm2 has been successfully obtained in an AlSi(lwt%)Cu(0.5wt%) alloy / Si system by using heavy dose ion implantations of Ge and B combined with low temperature annealing as low as 550°C. Structural analysis on the Si surface layer has been carried out. As a result, it was found that the crystal lattice was expanded in-plane by 6% in the Si layer near the surface because of the high concentration of Ge and no relaxation of lattice strain at such a low temperature. It was also found that super-saturation of B was stably formed in this system. An ultra-low resistivity contact is considered to be a result of these combined effects.

In December 2019 an outbreak of COVID19 occurred which is a severe acute respiratory disorder. Many succumbed to this global pandemic and many are still fighting the after effect of it. The virus directly affects the immune system especially of lungs. Therefore, the people who already have compromised immunity are at the very risk. The first symptoms to appear in COVID19 patients are ageusia and anosmia while treating the COVID19 patient’s certain practices are followed which aid in rapid oral health deterioration like oxygen mask, ventilators, heavy dose of medicines. Certain medicines used in treatment also precipitate poor oral health like bleeding gums, oral ulceration and dry mouth are the most common oral health problems faced after COVID19 recovery. COVID directly affects the immune system thereby making way for opportunistic infections like mucormycosis. Mucormycosis offers a severe burden on oral and general health affecting the standard of living and cause death in severe cases. Sinusitis, Periodontitis, black staining across the bridge of nose and sinus, localized discomfort and unbearable diplopia and refractive errors along with embolism and necrosis are seen in mucormycosis patients. Treatment of mucormycosis consists of surgery and replacement of lost structures Patients with compromised immunity need to take proper precautions during and after COVID.

Background: Alcoholism is a major threat to public health in both developed and developing countries. Alcohol has many effects on lipid profile, including inducing de novo fatty acid synthesis and inhibiting fatty acid oxidation in liver. Aim of this study was to study the effect of alcohol consumption on serum lipid profile in alcoholics and to compare with those of non-alcoholic controls.Methods: 100 cases and 100 age and sex matched controls were selected. These subjects were classified into, 1. Moderate alcoholics: Consuming ≤210 g per week 2. Heavy alcoholics: Consuming >210 g per week. Blood was taken in fasting state and lipids were estimated.Results: Among 200 subjects, 94% were male. 58.5% of the male and 83.3% of the female were heavy drinkers. Maximum number of alcoholics were seen in the age group of 41-50 years. The height correlated well with both control and study group. The moderate dose alcoholics had a higher weight when compared to control group and heavy dose alcoholics. The heavy dose alcoholics had a lower BMI when compared with the control group and moderate dose alcoholics. Heavy dose alcohol consumption was associated with a higher increase in triglyceride level. The total cholesterol level was significantly higher in the heavy dose alcoholics when compared with the control group. The HDL level was highest in the moderate dose alcoholics. The LDL level was highest in heavy dose alcoholics whereas, the moderate dose alcoholics had a lesser LDL level when compared with the control group. The VLDL level steadily increased with alcohol consumption.Conclusions: Patients with heavy alcohol consumption had significant increase in total cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL and VLDL. The moderate alcohol consumers had significantly increased HDL and decreased LDL. These protective effects declined after heavy alcohol consumption.

In the modern world, people need immediate remedies for their health problems. Without considering the future effects of the heavy dose medicines, people intake those medicines to get immediate relief. As a result, they forget the natural and side effects free home remedies. And there is no awareness among the current generation youngsters and kids. To overcome this problem, we are developing a mobile application in dart language using flutter framework [2]. It uses KMP Algorithm [4] to recommends the medicine based on their allergic conditions matching. By this our system recommends the natural homemade medicines for their temporary health issues. This will increase the acceptance of these homemade medicines among the people.

Owing to known historical reasons Britain's relations with India have been and continue to be multi-dimensional in that there is hardly a sphere of activity in this country, even domestic, which does not bear even now directly or indirectly the British impact. This, however, does not suggest that India has not adequately diversified its linkages (in the security and/or economic/industrial fields) with other major world powers. Rather it is despite the evolution of its significant linkages elsewhere that any social or economic occurrence in Britain gives rise to some commotion in India particularly at the elitist level. In any case, the two-way relationship is no more than a mix of a little cheer with a heavy dose of despair. That seems to have been the pattern ever since India's independence, often described in common parlance as one of a “love hate” variety.
