Aerobic Fitness in Basketball Player- An Experimental Study in Central India

Introduction: Aerobic fitness expresses the abilities of both cardiorespiratory and muscular systems to transport and utilize oxygen for energy. Fitness level of an individual depends on oxygen which can be transported by the body to working muscles to use that oxygen, hence maximum oxygen uptake capacity VO2 max is widely considered to be reliable indicator of fitness. Aim and Objectives: To assess the aerobic fitness and physiological parameters in young male basket ball players. Methodology: Present study was conducted on 60 young adult male within the age group of 18-20 yrs. Group-A consisted of thirty male participants who played basket ball at least five times per week, for six month duration and Group-B consisted of thirty male participants who were control group and not engaged in any type of exercise. Parameters like VO2 Max, Pulse Rate, Blood Pressure and BMI were analysed before and after six months in both the groups. Results: Student’s paired ‘t’ test was used to compare results before and after six months in both the groups while Student’s unpaired ‘t’ test was used to compare results of basket ball players with that of control group. VO2 max was increased while BMI, pulse rate and blood pressure was decreased in basket ball player group as compared to control group. P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Conclusion: Basket ball players had increased values of VO2 max, decreased pulse rate, blood pressure and BMI as compared to control group. This positive aerobic fitness and physiological outcomes of playing basket ball needs to be popularized among younger generations.
A REVIEW OF MAJOR FREQUENT ITEM SET MINING TEHNIQUES

: Data Mining extracts knowledge from large databases to discover existing and newer patterns. Data mining is the technique of automatic finding of hidden valuable patterns and relationships from huge volume of data stored in databases in order to help make better business decisions. Discovering useful patterns hidden in a database plays an essential role in several data mining tasks. Frequent item sets find application in a number of real-life contexts. Buying a PC first, then a digital camera, and then a memory card, if it occurs frequently in a shopping history database, is a frequent pattern. The market basket analysis is one of the applications of the frequent itemset mining . It analyses customer buying habits by finding associations between the different items that customers place in their shopping baskets. Most of the past work has been on finding frequent item sets, but also infrequent itemset mining has demonstrated its utility in different areas.
Metformin Attenuates Cognitive Deficits in Experimentally Induced Alzheimer’s Disease

A study was undertaken to evaluate the effect of metformin on learning memory in experimentally induced Alzheimer’s disease in Wistar rats. A total of 30 Wistar rats were divided in to five groups of six rats each. Group 1 served as control. In Group 2,3 and 4 Alzheimer’s disease was induced by administering aluminum chloride (17 mg/kg) orally to the animals for a period of 4 weeks once daily. Group 1and 2 received distilled water, group 3 received rivastigmine (0.3mg/kg) and group 4 and five received metformin 100mg/kg. All the rats were subjected to passive avoidance test. At the end of the experiment the rats were sacrificed and brain acetylcholinesterase level was estimated. Administration of aluminium chloride resulted in poor learning and memory and this was significantly reversed by rivastigmine and metformin. In conclusion, the memory impairment induced by aluminum chloride was revered significantly by both rivastigmine and metformin. Keywords: Alzheimer’s disease, Metformin, Rivastigmine, Passive avoidance test, Acetylcholinesterase.

Teaching Proposal in Advanced Agronomy Students for Agricultural Environmental Management

The sustainable development approach in an agronomic career needs to have several tools for the sustainable managment. For this reason, the subject Environmental Impact on Agrosystems, exclusive of the degree in Agronomic Engineering, in the Facultad de Agronomía of the Universidad de Buenos Aires allows us to provide several perspectives to the agricultural reality with a focus on the implications of working with natural resources in a social environment. The study aims are make students capable of contextualize the environmental implications of agricultural and agro-industrial productions and apply an environmental management tool to describe a real problem. The methodology chosen is a variation of problem-based learning. This teaching methodology focuses on the learning process and makes it possible to solve complex problems from multiple perspectives. The teaching work is divided in three instances: one for the theoretical explanation of the discipline, another for the explanation of the new model of evaluation and the last as a guide in spaces of reflexion and analysis of the written work and research, in addition to correction’s spaces and feedback from periodic written examinations. This proposal has had better results that the traditional examination methodology in which the group of students were conducting their examinations of each discipline separately.
Designing evaluations to provide evidence to inform action in new settings

Policy and interventions should be informed by the best available evidence, but evaluations are not always optimally designed to inform decisions about policies and interventions in new contexts. Learning the most possible from evaluations is important; evaluating is expensive and policy makers should be confident about their decisions. Using evidence from previous studies can lead to better policy decisions, but there have been cases where doing so has led to interventions that have not worked. Learning from evaluations for decisions elsewhere has generally been more successful for interventions that are simple and are less context dependent (or context-dependent in a simple way, such as depending on the severity of the problem). With increasing focus on complex, context-dependent interventions, we need to ensure that evaluations can offer as much information as possible to guide decisions in other contexts. Consultation with DIFD to inform this paper underscored the points above. Examples where DIFD wants to learn more include: What has been learned from the recent outbreak of Ebola in West Africa that could inform future outbreaks, outbreaks of other diseases, or more generally about how health promotion can be reconciled quickly with cultural norms and expectations (such as to attend funerals and lay hands on deceased relatives)? What can be learned from the peace-process in Northern Ireland that could be applicable in South Sudan? What can be learned across evaluations of programmes that use mobile phone technology to change behaviours, both for future mobile-based interventions but also as a platform for understanding how habits can be changed efficiently? Large-scale, multi-component initiatives to improve the education system in a single country — what can the evaluation say about efforts to improve educational outcomes in other countries, and for engaging with public/private organisational cultures to affect change? The aim of this paper is to suggest possible ways to address the issue of learning more from evaluations and make recommendations for how CEDIL could advance this area in the programme of work. To achieve this aim, we conducted consultations with experts from a range of disciplines to identify key concepts and developed a framework for possible approaches. We summarised and contrasted the approaches and reflected on their potential to address DFID’s needs.
EFFECT OF THE METHANOLIC EXTRACT OF POROPHYLLUM TAGETOIDES ON DIABETIC NEPHROPATHY

Diabetes mellitus is a global health problem. Persistent hyperglycemia is associated with several functional and structural complications, including kidney damage. Hyperglycemia-induced oxidative stress plays a critical role in diabetic nephropathy pathogenesis. Antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties have been reported for Porophyllum tagetoides, Kunth DC (Asteraceae). The aim of this study was to investigate the antioxidant effect of a methanolic extract of P. tagetoides (PT) leaves on kidney damage in diabetic rats. Diabetes was induced to male Wistar rats by streptozotocin injection. The animals were divided in six groups. After six weeks of treatment diabetic rats developed hyperglycemia, decreased body weight, increased renal weight, proteinuria, and decreased activity of antioxidant enzymes. Treatment with PT at a dose of 200 mg/kg, but not at a dose of 100 mg/kg, prevented the increased expression of angiotensin II receptor type 1 (AT1R), and transforming growth factor β1 (TGFβ1). The treatment also partially reduced the proteinuria developed by the diabetic animals, but did not restore the activity of the renal antioxidant enzymes. Hyperglycemia and kidney weight/total body weight ratio were similar to those of untreated diabetic rats. The DPPH radical scavenging capacity showed by PT may be due to the presence of flavonoids. Captopril and vitamin E used as controls, decreased the proteinuria and restored the activity of antioxidant enzymes. These data show that the methanolic extract of P. tagetoides (PT) did not restore the antioxidant enzymatic activity but inhibited TGF-β and AT1 receptor expression; both TGF-β and angiotensin II are considered key factors for the development of diabetic nephropathy.
Correlation between blood glucose level and self-management level in patients with type II diabetes mellitus

Objective: To explore the correlation of blood glucose level with self-management level in patients with type II diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and the nursing of the patients. Methods: One hundred patients with T2DM were selected and randomized into a control group and a study group (n=50) according to random number table. Patients in the control group received routine nursing, while patients in the study group received routine nursing combined with comprehensive nursing on self-management behaviors. Patients in the two groups were compared in terms of the effects on blood glucose control and self-management level before and after nursing. According to the selfmanagement scores after nursing, patients in the study group were divided into a low self-management score group (<75 points) and a high self-management score group with a score (≥75 points). The effects on blood glucose control were compared between the two groups. Pearson correlation and logistic regression were used to analyze the diagnostic values of indexes and the correlation of blood glucose level with self-management level. Results: After nursing, the scores for each dimension of self-management behaviors in the study group were significantly higher than those in the control group (all P<0.001). After nursing, the levels of serum fasting plasma glucose (FPG), 2-hour postprandial blood glucose (2hPBG) and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) in the study group were significantly lower than those in the control group (all P<0.001), and the levels in the high self-management score group were significantly lower than those in the low self-management score group (all P<0.001). Pearson correlation analysis showed that the scores for each dimension and the total score of self-management behaviors were negatively correlated with blood glucose level in patients with T2DM (all P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that the scores for each dimension and the total score were negatively correlated with blood glucose level in T2DM patients (all P<0.05). Conclusion: The blood glucose control is significantly correlated with the self-management level of patients with T2DM. Comprehensive nursing on self-management behaviors significantly improves the patients’ self-management level and blood glucose control, so it is worthy of clinical promotion.
Urban Water Management in India: A Community Perspective

The relationship between water and society has come to the forefront of critical inquiry in recent years. Water in the global era has acquired more meanings than simply a natural resource and the key to water management not only revolves around the need to deal with the scarcity of the resource, but also the complex interactions on the different aspects of water’s social, cultural, political and ecological significance (Fontein,2008). Political ecologists, sociologists and geographers have attempted to understand water in its varied dimensions, and more broadly, as a key ingredient of the production of cities. They have brought in a critical dimension to the social production of space through water. This paper based on research of a community water intervention in Cuttack, Odisha, attempts an analysis of water management in rapidly growing urban areas in an effort to provide safe water to all. The paper illustrates the idea of community water interventions in urban areas as a way of not only providing safe water but also understanding the relationship of water from a social, political and economic perspective. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Date of Submission: 10-07-2017 Date of acceptance: 20-07-2017 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ice Sheet Mass Balance and Sea Level ( ISMASS ) : A Science Plan

The dynamic response of ice sheets is currently understood to be due to the coupling of four component processes, each corresponding to a specific region of an ice sheet. They are surface mass balance, ice shelf, basal, and englacial processes. Of these four, only englacial processes have the capacity to transmit stress from one area to another, and as such will play the pivotal role in determining how sea level rise can result from grounded ice moving seaward. The two least well understood scientific issues relating to englacial processes are presently 1) how horizontal stresses are transferred within ice, and what level of detail in the stress balance is required to adequately capture the transfer, and 2) how well must the ice rheology be represented to predict the dynamical evolution of ice with the desired precision. It should also be noted that description of englacial boundary conditions requires advances in understanding of surface, basal, and shelf processes. Hence model uncertainty will remain high until advances in all four processes are made. The importance of ice sheet modeling efforts has been magnified by recent reports suggesting that sea level rise remains the most poorly constrained and potentially catastrophic impact of climate change. As such, this document has been prepared to coordinate and focus scientific inquiry in the coming years. First, three scientific questions of great significance are posed. Englacial processes and the closely related numerical schemes for addressing them will be pivotal to advancement on the questions, but the other three component processes will play a role as well. The questions are: 1. Will climate change lead to irreversible (non-linear, rapid) ice-sheet response? 2. Does a rapid change lead to a large mass change? 3. Are observed rapid changes “natural variability” or responses to warming? In this contribution, the scientific background for each of the questions is presented. This is followed with a “roadmap” for studying the questions that is consistent with the best available data.
Aluminium trihydrate-filled poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA/ATH) waste powder utilization in wood-plastic composite boards bonded by MUF resin

An alternative approach to producing a wood-plastic composite (WPC) from wood particles, aluminium trihydrate-filled poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA/ATH) waste powder, and melamine-urea-formaldehyde (MUF) resin is described. The surface of PMMA/ATH powder was modified with ureido- and amino-functional silane coupling agents at four different degrees of modification: 0.3%, 0.5%, 1.0%, and 2.0%. An X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis was executed on a silane-modified PMMA/ATH material, and the results revealed the presence of chemically bonded silanes on the PMMA/ATH surface. Contact angle measurements were also performed to calculate the surface free energies of the modified powders. Water contact angles of modified powders slightly decreased as surface free energy increased with the degree of surface modification. Mechanical tests of the composites showed that different degrees of surface modification had a significant influence on modulus of elasticity (MOE) and modulus of rupture (MOR) of the composite boards. However, there were no significant differences between the silanes used.
Recommendations for Physiotherapy Intervention after Stroke

Stroke is the leading cause of disability and one of the leading causes of death in the world. The number of stroke survivors is projected to increase by 25%, which is a major financial challenge for society given that stroke survivors are living with major and long-lasting consequences including immobility. Physiotherapy plays a significant role in the rehabilitation of patients' functional movement after the stroke occurs. Neurophysiotherapy divides into acute phase, subacute phase and chronic phase according to the time of recovery. The aim of the paper is to review those interventions based on expertly and scientifically proven effects by reviewing available physiotherapy interventions and methods. The complex field of Neurophysiotherapy needs to be directed towards specific and scientifically effective methods of treating patients affected by a stroke. For the problem reasoning approach of physiotherapy treatment of patients affected by a stroke it is recommended: early mobilization, treatment of shoulder pain and subluxation, mobilization of the feet, treatment of somatosensory functions, balance, muscling from sitting to standing, muscle strengthening and endurance exercises, cyclic bilateral arm and leg training, gait training, mirror therapy, CIMT, application of robotics and virtual reality, hydrotherapy, electrotherapy, and education and social activation of the patient and his or her family. Conclusion: It is necessary to constantly monitor and research new methods of treatment and evidence of the effectiveness of individual methods. Specific recommendations for physiotherapy treatment of a patient after a stroke can assist the physiotherapist in day-to-day clinical practice and standardize effective treatment methods. Recommendations for physiotherapy treatment for a patient with disabilities after a stroke allow the physiotherapist to develop a creative approach in treating the patient within physiotherapy based on scientifically proven methods.
Direct Comparison of Data Encoded With Hard Systematic Error Correcting Codes with Low Latency and Low Complexity

: In current scenario, there are situations in a computing system where incoming information needs to be compared with a piece of stored data to locate the matching entry, e.g., cache tag array lookup and translation look-aside buffer matching. In this paper, a new architecture to reduce complexity and latency for matching the data protected with an error-correcting code (ECC). It is based on the fact that the codeword of an ECC generated by encoding is usually represented in a systematic form, and it consists of the raw data and the parity information. The proposed architecture parallelizes the comparison of the data and that of the parity information. To further reduce the latency and complexity, in addition, a modified butterfly formed weight accumulator (BWA) is proposed for the efficient computation of the Hamming distance. The proposed architecture examines whether the incoming data matches the stored data if a certain number of erroneous bits are correct.
