An Empirical Study: Automating e-Commerce Product Rating Through an Analysis of Customer Review

— e-Commerce today is a remarkable experience. However, finding and purchasing a right quality product based on numerous product reviews and manual rating in the e-commerce websites utilize much time among the consumers. This paper presents the problems faced by the consumers when buying products in e-commerce websites and a solution to solve the problems. Thus, the idea of an automated product rating system would be very useful for the consumers in which it rates the products automatically based on the reviews given by the buyers. To do this, a technique called Sentiment Analysis is used. It also ranks the products in order based on the product rating that is generated automatically. It would provide a way for the consumers to purchase their desired product within minutes. Surveys and interviews were conducted to find out the problems faced by consumers when purchasing a product online through e-commerce websites. There was also research conducted to study the product rating and product review section on the current e-commerce websites. To conclude, this automated product rating system eventually eases the consumers’ effort and time from reading numerous reviews and trusting inaccurate product rating to find a best quality product for them.
International Journal of Biological & Medical Research Iodine Content in Edible Salt and Drinking Water in Sub-himalayan Tarai Region of Eastern Uttar Pradesh, India a B C D E

Original Article Aims & Objectives : To evaluate distribution of iodine through edible salts and bioavailability of iodine in sub-Himalayan Tarai region of Eastern Uttar Pradesh. Methods & Design: The study has been conducted in all 14 Community development (CD) Blocks in the studied region. To measure the iodine content of salt and water samples ,a total of 490 edible salt samples and 112 drinking water samples were collected from 14 study areas taking 35 Salt sample and 8 water samples from each CD Block respectively. Results: The present study shows that 79.2% of salt samples had iodine level below 15ppm and 2.2% had no iodine,11.8% had iodine level above 15ppm but below 30ppm, whereas the mean iodine content in drinking water samples of the studied sub-Himalayan tarai region of Eastern Uttar Pradesh was 8.99±2.97 µg/l. Conclusion : Only 18.5% of households of the sub-Himalayan tarai region consume salts with recommended iodine level (>15ppm) and the rest 81.5% households consume salt with inadequate iodine level (<15ppm). Thus intake of iodine through edible salt is insufficient. The result of iodine content in drinking water shows that the studied region is moderately iodine deficient.
International Journal of Biological & Medical Research a Cross Sectional Study for the Evaluation of Autonomic Nervous System Functioning in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Patients

a b c Type 2 Diabetes mellitus cardiac autonomic neuropathy autonomic function tests Original Article AIM: Prevalence of Diabetes is increasing globally and India is no exception One of the most important complication of diabetes is Cardiac Autonomic Neuropathy (CAN)which results from damage to the autonomic nerve fibers that innervate heart and blood vessels The integrity of the autonomic system is studied with help of simple non-invasive cardiovascular reflex tests. Our aim was to study the pattern of autonomic neuropathy in newly detected diabetic patients. MATERIALS AND METHOD: This study involved 100, newly diagnosed type 2 diabetic patients and 50 normal individuals.A pretested structured proforma was used & then they were subjected to cardiovascular reflex tests like. Resting Heart Rate. Valsalva Maneuver. Heart Rate response to standing. Heart Rate Response to Deep Breathing& Blood Pressure response to standing . Statistical analysis was performed by using 't' test. P < 0.05 was considered significant. RESULTS: The resting heart rate was significantly higher and Valsalva ratio& Ratio of heart rate on standing (30:15) were decreased in diabetics as compared to normal. Significant decrease in diastolic blood pressure in standing position was also seen in diadetics as compared to controls. CONCLUSION: In our study newly detected type 2 diabetic patients who did not have any symptoms of autonomic dysfunction, had abnormal cardiovascular reflex tests due to the impairment of parasympathetic and sympathetic systems. But no single test alone is useful for detection of CAN, & for screening diabetic patients.
Outsourcing: a way to Improve the Responsiveness and Agility within the Organisation

Outsourcing or offshoring as it is now known has been around for many decades. In the beginning it was only very peripheral activities that were outsourced, blue collar (lower skilled) work but this is now all changing with the outsourcing of white-collar jobs. Historically, outsourcing was used when organisation could not perform to world-class excellence in all sectors of the organisation due to incompetence of staff and/or management, lack of capacity, financial pressures, and/or technological pressure. The research currently underway is initially focusing on a literature review of current outsourcing applications in the market place. From the literature review, a questionnaire has been developed to assess the impact outsourcing has on business performance. This research focuses on the Irish Market place. The paper will present the findings of the initial literature review, it will examine the main reasons companies outsource and the benefits they could accrue if gone about systematically and the associated problems. It will also discuss the methodology being followed to explore the Irish Industrial Sector. This is a working paper and as such, it is hoped that initial results from the survey will be available for presentation at the conference in September.
Foreign Direct Investment and Economic Growth in the Southern African Development Community

The Southern African Development Community (SADC) has continued to experience an unprecedented increase in foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows for the past three decades. Evidence of their quantitative impact on the economy is still quite mixed. We use panel data methods on data from the (SADC) for the 1980–2020 period, where our results show that FDI has a positive and statistically significant effect on economic growth; thus, agreeing with some work that has been done on the community and in Sub-Saharan Africa. Our study calls for the development of human capital, the promotion of market liberalization, the improvement of the financial sector and the need for policy measures that prioritize productive investment that is supportive of the local private and foreign sectors; the latter provides positive spillovers to other sectors.
(cid:1) (cid:1) Fibrinogen: Evaluation of a New Assay for Study of Associations with Cardiovascular Disease

BACKGROUND : Studies of disease associations with (cid:1) (cid:1) fibrinogen, a newly emerging risk factor for cardiovascular disease, have been hampered by the lack of a standardized and well-characterized assay. METHODS : Wedevelopedanimmunometrictechniqueto measure (cid:1) (cid:1) fibrinogen concentrations in plasma and studied the clinical utility of this test in samples from healthy individuals enrolled in the Framingham Offspring Study and in a separate case/control study of coronary artery disease (CAD). Monoclonal antibody 2.G2. H9, specific for the unique carboxyl terminal peptide of the fibrinogen (cid:1) (cid:1) chain, was used as capture antibody. Sheep antihuman fibrinogen/horseradish peroxidase conjugate was used for detection, with 3,3 (cid:1) ,5,5 (cid:1) tetramethylbenzidine as substrate. We evaluated the lin-earity, imprecision, analytical specificity, and lower limit of quantification of the assay. We determined the refer-enceintervalfor (cid:1) (cid:1) fibrinogeninhealthyindividualsfrom the Framingham Offspring Study (n (cid:2) 2879) and quan-tified associations between (cid:1) (cid:1) fibrinogen and cardiovascular disease risk factors. The sensitivity and specificity of (cid:1) (cid:1) fibrinogen in evaluating CAD patients (n (cid:2) 133) was determined with ROC curve analysis. RESULTS : The (cid:1) (cid:1) fibrinogen ELISA had within-run
Compact 3-D Printed Phase-Shifting Coupler With Decoupling Column and Defected Ground Structures for Millimeter Wave Applications

In this brief, employed with the selective laser melting (SLM) of three-dimensional (3-D) printing, a compact waveguide phase-shifting coupler (PSC) is proposed. The new structure has the same function as a 3 dB 90° (hybrid) coupler and a −45° phase shifter but a minimized size, which could decline the components of the conventional <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$4\times 4$ </tex-math></inline-formula> Butler Matrix from ten to four. The miniaturization is attained with a modified <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$TE_{201}$ </tex-math></inline-formula>-cavity and a tiny decoupling column (DC). The theory of circularly polarized components (CPC) and mass constructed by the periodic current in rectangular waveguide associates it with the primitive design of the transmission line model and explains the further miniaturization directed by DC. Besides, non-radiative DGSs are slotted as heat sinks with the propagating center routes of the current. The designed 45°/−135° PSC at 28 GHz has a good agreement between simulation and measurement.
Fiscal Spending Jobs Multipliers: Evidence from the 2009 American Recovery and Reinvestment Act

This paper estimates the “jobs multiplier” of fiscal spending using the state-level allocations of federal stimulus funds from the 2009 American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA). Specifically, I estimate the relationship between state-level federal ARRA spending and state employment outcomes from the time the Act was passed (February 2009) through the latest month of data (currently May 2010). Because actual state allocations of stimulus spending may be endogenous with respect to state economic outcomes, I instrument for stimulus spending using the state allocations that were anticipated immediately after the ARRA was passed, according to the Wall Street Journal and the Center for American Progress. To control for the counterfactual – what would have happened without the stimulus – I include several variables likely to be strong predictors of state employment growth. The results point to substantial heterogeneity in the impact of ARRA spending over time, across sectors, and across types of spending. The estimated jobs multiplier for total nonfarm employment is large and statistically significant for ARRA spending through March 2010, but falls considerably and becomes insignificant in April and May. The implied number of jobs created or saved by the spending is about 2.0 million as of March, but drops to 0.8 million as of May. Across sectors, the estimated impact of ARRA spending on construction employment is especially large, implying a 18.4% increase in employment (as of May 2010) relative to what it would have been without the ARRA. Lastly, I find that spending on infrastructure and other general purposes has a large positive impact, while spending on safety-net programs such as unemployment insurance and Medicaid reduces employment.
Status of coral reefs of the world: summary of threats and remedial action

INTRODUCTION While the history of active coral reef research stretches back over 100 years, the concern for the declining status of coral reefs is relatively recent, probably less than 25 years. The first major attempt to alert the global coral reef science community to the threats posed to coral reefs was in 1981 by Edgardo Gomez, who subtitled the 4th International Coral Reef Symposium in Manila, May 1981, as The Reef and Man (Gomez, 1982). Similarly Bernard Salvat and David Stoddart raised the alarm in 1982 (Salvat, 1980, 1982; Stoddart, 1982). At this time, most coral reef researchers worked from field stations during vacations; field stations specifically chosen that were adjacent to healthy and flourishing coral reefs seemingly not affected by human impacts. There was a small group of coral reef scientists who were working in developing countries, however, who were aware of an impending crisis for coral reefs. Since that 1981 Symposium, there has been a steady increase in the involvement of coral reef scientists in the applied aspects of coral reef management (summarized in Knowlton, this volume). A paper published by Don Kinsey in 1988succinctly summarized the stresses to coral reefs (Kinsey, 1988). Similarly there were other reports of localized damage to coral reefs by coral reef scientists (Brown, 1987; Gomez, 1988; Pauly and Chua, 1988; Grigg and Dollar, 1990), but it was not until 1992 that global attention was alerted to the threats facing coral reefs.
Design and Implementation of a Distributed Network Management System for a Multi-Branch University using GNS3

The rapid digitalization of communication necessitates continuous skill updates to keep pace with evolving technology. Network management involves multiple functionalities that play a crucial role in optimizing network performance and ensuring continuous availability. It is very important to ensure a proper network management system for a university that has multiple branches to effectively manage and monitor their network infrastructure. A proper network management system provides centralized control and visibility over the entire network infrastructure, allowing administrators to efficiently manage and monitor network devices, configurations, and performance from a single interface. this research has developed a network management system that facilitates real-time network monitoring and troubleshooting, enabling proactive identification and resolution of issues to ensure smooth operations across all branches. It simplifies configuration management, ensuring consistency and compliance in network settings and updates. Resource optimization is achieved through insights into network utilization and performance metrics, allowing administrators to allocate resources efficiently and plan for future expansion. Security and compliance measures can be enforced, protecting sensitive data and ensuring adherence to regulatory requirements. This study utilized GNS3 to create a network layout for a university with multiple branches, along with essential security configurations for the network design. A diverse range of protocols was implemented to safeguard and cater to the users of the secure university network. Furthermore, Switches, Data Routers, firewalls, and BGP Routers were incorporated into the network to enhance communication efficiency and streamline operations.

Cement hydration-based micromechanics modeling of the time-dependent small-strain stiffness of fly ash-stabilized soils.

AbstractA contact mechanics model, based on the Hertzian elastic contact theory and cementation coating development at particulate scale, was established to predict the time-dependent small-strain stiffness of Class C fly ash–stabilized soils during curing. The cementation coating development model was developed at particulate level based on the Arrhenius law to predict the contact radius growth. A hyperbolic time–temperature relationship was proposed to capture the temperature change of fly ash–stabilized soils and links the pozzolanic reaction rate with curing time. Model-predicted small-strain stiffness was evaluated through both published and experimental test results with good success. The micromechanics modeling indicated that the small-strain stiffness of fly ash–stabilized soil depends on the contact area between fly ash and soil particles and the soil particles’ shear modulus. Most of the small-strain stiffness of the stabilized soil was developed within the first 7 days of curing. In addition, a.
Citrus Limon Has the Potential to Reduce Oxidative Stress and Inflammation After Physical Activity/Exercise: Systematic Review

This study aims to analyze and highlight the potential of citrus limon in reducing inflammation and oxydatif stress after physical activity/exercise. This study uses a systematic review method by searching various journal databases such as Scopus, Web of Science, Pubmed, and Embase. The inclusion criteria in this study were articles published within the last 5 years and articles discussing Limon, Inflammation, Free Radicals, and physical exercise. Exclusion criteria in this study were articles published in disreputable journals. A total of 1665 articles from Scopus, Web of Science Pubmed and Embase databases were identified. A total of 7 articles that met the inclusion criteria were selected and analyzed for this systematic review. For standard operations, this study follows the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic review and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) assessment. The results of this systematic research review report that the flavanoid content found in citrus limon has anti-oxidant properties that can reduce oxidative stress. Furthermore, the anti-inflammatory properties of citrus limon can reduce uncontrolled inflammation due to physical activity and intense exercise. In this case, citrus limon works by inhibiting inflammation through NF-kB signaling and reducing inflammation by suppressing the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as TNF-a. Reducing inflammation can potentially reduce the intensity of muscle pain. We recommend that citrus limon be used in individuals to reduce oxidative stress and inflammation caused by physical activity and intense exercise.

Email: cicero@ufcspa.edu. br, cicerodias17@ gmail.com Abstract Objective: To evaluate culture‐independent procedures (immunochromatography and quantitative polymerase chain reaction [qPCR]) in the detection and susceptibility of Streptococcus pneumoniae directly from culture‐negative pleural fluid (PF) in children. Method: Detection of S. pneumoniae in PF of children with parapneumonic effusion and/or empyema by using two culture‐independent methods: an immunochromatographic membrane test (IMT) which identifies the pneumococcal C antigen, and a real‐time PCR test to detect pneumococcal genes lytA and pbp2b, a marker of susceptibility of β‐lactam agents, in PF samples. Results: We tested 36 PF specimens and recorded the previous use of antimicrobials. In the final analysis, 34 samples were included. IMT and qPCR presented positive results in 23 (67.6%) and 24 (70.6%) of the samples, respectively, showing a moderate agreement (K = 0.518) between the two methods. From the 36 children included, 34 (94.4%) had antibiotic data available by the time when PFs were collected. Thirty‐four (100%) children had been given treatment before PF sampling, with 33 (97%) receiving β‐lactam antibiotics administered empirically. Of the 24 lytA real‐time positive samples, 21 (87.5%) were also positive for pbp2b, a marker of β‐lactam susceptibility. Conclusion: The reduced sensitivity of culture for pneumococcal detection can be improved through the addition of IMT and qPCR analysis. The utility of qPCR combining detection of lytA and a marker of β‐lactam susceptibility should be explored further.

Numerical Wind Energy Atlas for Canada

A national map of wind resources is a prerequisite to consider the possibility of greater utilization of wind energy. In Canada, up to recently, the only wind resource map available for the whole country was generated by the interpolation of the major wind stations (10-year 1967-1976) observations at 10 m elevation (Walmsley and Morris, 1992). This map, based on a limited set of observations, does not have enough resolution to be useful for the wind industry. The growing need for the assessment of Canadian wind potential incited the Environment Canada to develop the Wind Energy Simulation Toolkit (WEST). This tool was recently used to create the Canadian Wind Energy Atlas. Its first version was released in October 2004 and is publicly available at http://www.windatlas. ca.

Post–Hip Fracture Mortality in Nursing Home Residents by Obesity Status

the V-GEAH study to follow-up. The control group did not change on any measures during the 9 months, except for ankle strength. Adherers maintained or improved in their fall risk status from posttest to follow-up in all 14 measures, whereas non-adherers significantly declined in four fall risk factors. Adherers improved significantly from pretest to follow-up in five risk factors: balance confidence, walking speed, stride length, strength of ankle plantar flexion and dorsiflexion, and hip extension. In addition, the use of a mobility device was reduced by 50%. In contrast, non-adherers improved significantly only in ankle plantar flexion strength.
