Chromosomal Aberration in Natural Populations of Isoetes coromandelina L. (f.)

Isoetes L. is a cosmopolitan genus of heterosporous lycopods which is worldwide in distribution. During the present research work, natural and crop field populations of Isoetes from Bilaigarh were compared for their. This has been done in order to study the effect of agricultural chemicals on the chromosomes of Isoetes taking the root mitosis as the biological assay system. No such study has been done in case of Isoetes as far as the available literature is concerned.

PSK Transciever designing using SystemVue

Since, the industrial electronics is trending towards more compact components and system integration, innovative products offering greater flexibility, quality, safety, reliability, energy savings, wide range of connectivity with long operating lifetime. Now, Electronics is widely used in information processing, telecommunication and signal processing. Due to the complex nature of electronics theory, laboratory experimentation is an important part of development of electronic devices. These experiments are used to test or verify the proposed design and detect errors. Historically, electronics labs have consisted of electronic devices and equipment located in the physical space. Although in more recent years, the trend has been towards electronics lab simulation softwares and SystemVue is also one of them. SystemVue is a focussed electronic design automation (EDA) environment for electronic system-level (ESL) design. It enables system architects and algorithm developers to innovate the physical layer (PHY) of wireless and aerospace/defence communication systems and provide unique value to RF, DSP and FPGA/ASIC implementers. As a dedicated platform for ESL design and signal processing realization, SystemVue replaces general-purpose digital, analog and math environments. SystemVue “speaks RF”, cuts PHY development and verification time in half and connects to your mainstream EDA flow.

Analysis of Microcalcifications Using Block Wise Local Binary Pattern and Independent component analysis in Mammograms

In India, the average age of developing a breast cancer has undergone a significant shift over last few decades. Most prominent features that indicate breast cancer are microcalcifications. Microcalcifications are tiny calcium deposits deposited on skin and non-palpable. Automatic analysis of microcalcification helps specialist in having more precise decision. The paper presents an approach that involves classification of microcalcifications into benign/malignant in mammograms. Texture features such LBP and statistical features are extracted from ROIs with microcalcification and independent component analysis is applied to reduce the feature set. These feature set is fed to artificial neural networks to classify the ROIs into malignant and benign calcifications.

Dog Tapeworm : Social Ignorance and Serious Health Issues

Since last 2-3 decades the trend of keeping dogs as pet in Indian homes is noticed as on increase. One of the reasons is the increasing in the number of nuclear family configuration. People find dogs as good domestic companion for the purpose of safety as well as entertainment. It is noticed that around 95% of these pet lovers are unaware about hazards associated with these pets. They do not follow the standard norms of pet raising and health considerations and remain ignorant about the safety of their family as well as the society. Most common and fatal disease associated with dogs are bladder worm disease i.e. Hydatidosis . This life threatening disease is caused by a tapeworm parasite Echinococus granulosus, which is a natural parasite of dogs and transmit due to unhygienic habits and handling. About 2-3 million people are suffering due to dog tapeworms through out the world , which lead to the monetary loss of $ 750,000,000=00 every year. In India due to lack of health education and awareness and very casual approach in handling such pets lead to increase in the disease incidence rate. Our regulatory norms are not rigid and because of that pet registry rate is very low. Besides we are not following strict compliance of medical guidelines to keep these animals free from such a dangerous infections. Unhygienic handling and unregulated disposal of dogs fecal content contributes for the spread of hydatid disease in innocent children and adults. In a recent discussion with medial experts it was noticed that the frequency of this disease is increasing day by day. Considering above facts it is necessary to frame very effective social and legal regulatory norms to control the un-noticed spread of the infection in society.

Beliefs, Perceptions and Barriers related to Cancer among Gynecologic Cervical Cancer (CaCx) Patients in Uttar Pradesh, India

The present paper is based upon the case studies which explore the psycho-social characteristics of Cervical Cancer (CaCx) patients being treated at RMLIMS, Lucknow. The beliefs and perceptions of the patients regarding causes, symptoms, treatment and its outcome, transmission, other’s perception, and recurrence have been analysed. The terms being used by the patients to refer to their disease, the symptoms they have experienced and the mechanism of disease manifestation according to them have also been presented. The demographic data of the patients (n=25) has been analysed and the relationship between age group, annual family income and education level of the patients and the beliefs has been studied. The correlation coefficient (r) and p-values thereof indicate that there is no significant relationship between the age group, annual family income and education of the patients with the beliefs they have. it can be concluded that there are certain other factors that influence the belief system of the Cervical Cancer (CaCx) patients.

Analysis of Physico-Chemical Parameter of Surface Water nearby Industrial Area of Balrampur City

Present investigation deals about the different water bodies occur nearby industrial area of Balrampur city. Industrial area of Balrampur city has one of the largest sugar factory of India i.e. Balrampur Chinimill with one distillery unit. Beside these, This area has some small scale industries also but the water bodies are affected mainly by sugar factory. The sampling has been done from different sites of containing mainly those area were effluents of the factory discharged regularly. The physico-chemical parameters of effluents containing water quality. The deterioration of industrial effluents with drainage water and untreated sewage also play very imp role to increase the pollution of surface water.

Image Processing for the Detection of Diabetic Retinopathy and Diabetic Macular Edema

Diabetic retinopathy (DR) and diabetic macular edema (DME) are common microvascular retinal diseases in patients with diabetes. The diabetic patients may have a sudden and devastating impact on visual acuity, in the long run leading to blindness. Advanced stages of DR are characterized by the growth of abnormal retinal blood vessels secondary to ischemia. These blood vessels grow in an attempt to supply oxygenated blood to the hypoxic retina. At any time during the progression of DR, patients with diabetes can also develop DME, which involves retinal thickening in the macular area. In the present paper, algorithms are developed to detect DR and DME. For detecting DR the abnormalities in the retina blood vessels are detected by classifying the common abnormalities namely microaneurisms, hard exudates, heammorages and cotton wool spots. DME is detected by finding the nearness of Hard exudate to macula. The macula and hard exudates are localized using image processing techniques. Severity of DME is assessed based on the nearest exudates, their area and color analysis. The algorithm is tested with 65 DR and DME images with severity index 0, 1 and 2 from MESSIDOR database.

Some New Existence Results for a Class of Four Point Nonlinear Boundary Value Problems

In this paper we consider the following class of four point boundary value problems—y"(x) = f (x, y), 0 less than x lessthan 1, y'(0) = 0, y(1) = 1y(1) + 2)7(2)’where 1, 2  0 lesstahn 1, 2 less than 1, and f (x, y), is continuous in one sided Lipschitz in y. We propose a monotone iterative scheme and show that under some sufficient conditions this scheme generates sequences which converges uniformly to solution of the nonlinear multipint boundary value problem.
