Authors: Sreedevi Ch. , Shrimali Manish , Leela R , Murthy Mantripragada Yaswanth Bhanu , Selvaraj D.
Published: July 2022

The widespread use of electric vehicles (EVs) is viewed as a turning point for lower emissions of co2 and much more advanced driver assistance systems. It is time-consuming to predict the battery capacity of the electric vehicle using the endurance and dependability of battery systems. Because battery deterioration is typically non-linear, predicting the capacity of the battery of charge estimation with significantly less deterioration is incredibly time-consuming. As a result of this complexity, real-time control of battery storage has proven difficult. Nevertheless, using the latest advancements in battery deterioration comprehension, simulation techniques, and testing, there is a potential to combine this expertise with new machine learning (ML) approaches to find a potential solution for this complexity. In this study, the battery life is predicted using three different regression models Linear Regression, Ridge Regression, and Ensemble Regression. The model's error analysis is conducted to improve the battery's performance characteristics. Finally, the three ML algorithms are compared using performance parameters. Out of the three regression models, the Ensemble regression model is found to be the best model which has an accuracy of 94.8%.

Published: July 2022

Background: Global Longitudinal Strain (GLS) measured by 2D speckle-tracking strain echocardiography (2D-STE) can detect impaired longitudinal left ventricle (LV) function at rest which is associated with significant coronary artery stenosis. Objective: Global longitudinal strain (GLS) may be used to predict the presence, extent and severity of CAD according to coronary angiographic findings in patients with chronic stable angina. Methods: 2D-STE and coronary angiography were performed on 100 individuals with suspected stable angina pectoris who had normal resting conventional echocardiography. Global longitudinal strain were assessed and were correlated with coronary angiography for each patient. Results: Statistically significant difference was found when comparing the mean GLS among patients with normal coronaries and different degrees of coronary artery disease (CAD).Mean GLS was – 20.76±1.39, -17.66±0.65, - 16.05±0.58 and -14.22±0.65 for normal/minor, single vessel, two vessels and  three vessels  respectively(p<0.001).  Patients with significant left main (LM) stenosis had GLS of 14.41±1.27 compared with GLS of 17.1±1.91in patients without LM stenosis (p=<0.001). In our study cutoff value for detection of single vessel disease was -18.300 with good sensitivity and specificity (100% and 96.6%, respectively) with AUC (Area Under the Curve) 0.996 and p value< 0.001.

Aim: The study's main objective was to see whether the well-known probiotic Bifidobacterium lactis might aid in the development of children. Method: A nine-week clinical study involving 400 children aged between 5 to 10 years, was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of food supplementation. Stage 1 participants took 150 ml of low-fat milk twice a day for three weeks as a baseline diet control. Probiotics (Bifidobacterium lactis) were added to milk during stage 2 in a usual dosage (4×1010 organisms /d) or a low dose (4×109 organisms /d) for 3 weeks. During stage 3, for three weeks, they took low-fat milk. Peripheral blood samples were used to examine changes in the ratios of tumor-cell-killing and leukocyte phagocytic activities. Result: The level of NK cells and T lymphocytes were found to be increased in the blood of the individuals. NK cell’s tumoricidal activity was also increased following B. lactis intake, as were the phagocytic capacities of mononuclear and polymorphonuclear phagocytes. Subjects with weak pretreatment immune responses had the highest improvement in immunity. Conclusion: Supplementing the diets of children with B. lactis (a probiotic) may help improve their cellular immunity and physical development.

Authors: Pandey Ganesh Shanker , Pandey Aditya Nath
Published: July 2022

Traditional oral dosage forms prone to first pass metabolism and degra­dation due to enzymes but mucoadhesive dosage form able to bypass first pass metabolism and related degradation. It also offers more patient compliance without risk of chocking in case of paediatric and geriatric patients. Buccal mucosa is considered as a convenient and easily accessible site for the drug administration for both local and systemic delivery. Mucoadhesion is a process involving chemical interactions between mucin and polymers. The use of mucoadhesive polymers in buccal drug delivery has gained a great attention. Various mucoadhesive dosage forms, including tablets, patches, disks, wafers, ointments and gels have recently been developed. Amongst them, buccal patches offer greater flexibility and comfort than the other forms. Smart materials such as stimuli-responsive hydrogels, liposome-based patches, polymeric micelles, etc. play a vital role in the development of these drug delivery systems by their efficient carrier capacity, prolonging the residence time of the drug at the site of absorption, improved drug bioavailability, reduced dosing frequency and improved patience compliance.

Authors: Muliyil Monisha , Dhiksha J
Published: July 2022

In the present day, the most common issue that parents and teachers face with children is poor attention and memory, which lead to poor academic performance. To ensure healthy cognitive development with primary focus on attention and working memory, we need genuine techniques crafted with passion and precision to help children learn and develop. The Indian education system mainly tests memory of students. Techniques that improve attention and working memory would enable children to perform better in examinations and in turn improve their self-esteem and overall well-being. Research shows that music training improves attention and working memory. This paper examines the literature on the effect of music training on attention and working memory and suggests that it plays a vital role in improving attention and consequently working memory. In this paper, the researcher has provided a detailed analysis of the specific areas of attention and working memory that need to be sharpened, with structured activities to enhance each area during learning sessions in order to accelerate academic progress.

Published: July 2022

With over 720,000 cases and 33,000 confirmed deaths reported to far, the COVID-19 pandemic is a severe health disaster affecting multiple countries. Widespread breakouts have been linked to negative mental health repercussions. With this in mind, existing material on the COVID-19 outbreak that was relevant to mental health was found using the PubMed database. The overall themes of published papers were classified and summarized. According to preliminary research, anxiety, and sadness (16–28%), as well as self-reported stress (8%) are prevalent psychological reactions to the COVID-19 pandemic and may be linked to sleep disturbances. This risk is moderated by a number of individual and systemic factors. Both the requirements of the people concerned and the essential preventive recommendations must be considered when preparing services for such populations. The existing material comes from only a few of the countries affected, and it may not reflect the experiences of people in other areas of the world. Finally, a common response to the COVID-19 pandemic is sub-syndromal mental health disorders. More representative research from other affected nations is needed, especially in disadvantaged groups.

Published: July 2022

INTRODUÇÃO: As medidas protetivas contra a COVID-19, como o isolamento social, são eficazes no controle da disseminação do vírus, porém possuem consequências negativas do ponto de vista psicológico. Embora o Transtorno do Espectro Autista (TEA) não seja um fator de risco para COVID-19, ele acaba sendo exacerbado pelo isolamento social, devido à interrupção da rotina imposta pelas restrições. O objetivo desse trabalho é avaliar, por meio de uma revisão narrativa, os principais desafios encontrados pelas crianças e adolescentes com TEA e seus responsáveis durante a pandemia da COVID-19, tendo como finalidade a abordagem dos impactos negativos na saúde mental dessas pessoas. MÉTODOS: Revisão bibliográfica feita nas principais bases de dados como Scielo, Pubmed e Lilacs, sendo selecionados artigos em inglês, espanhol e português, com tema central relacionando isolamento social, TEA e danos na saúde mental. RESULTADOS E DISCUSSÃO: Estudos apontam que a resistência às modificações da rotina e a interrupção das atividades impostas pela pandemia da COVID-19 são desafiadoras para pacientes com TEA, afetando a saúde mental destes, o que pode exacerbar os sintomas do transtorno e agravar os problemas de comportamento. Pais de crianças com TEA relataram predominantemente mudanças no comportamento de seus filhos (72,1%), sendo as principais causas da mudança de comportamento ansiedade (41,7%), irritabilidade (16,7%), obsessão (11,1%), hostilidade (5,6%) e impulsividade.(2,8%). Pais e/ou cuidadores de pessoas com TEA também são afetados, já que para eles manter o isolamento social, estabelecer a nova rotina e explicar a falta de convívio com outras crianças são grandes desafios. CONCLUSÃO: A pandemia da COVID-19 afeta desproporcionalmente crianças e adolescentes com TEA bem como seus responsáveis. A suspensão da educação presencial, atividades extracurriculares e sociais ameaçam o bem-estar físico e mental dessas pessoas. Os pais e cuidadores estão sendo convidados a reorganizarem suas vidas diante das medidas de restrição social.

Yapılan regresyon analizi neticesinde ülke menşe faktörünün marka sadakatini etkilemediği, öz saygı faktörünün marka imajı ve marka sadakatini etkilediği, marka imajının da marka sadakati üzerinde etkisi olduğu sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Pozitif öz saygı faktörünün de marka sadakatine etkisinde marka imajının aracılık rolü olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Sonuç: Genel olarak akademisyenlerde ve öğrencilerde ülke menşenin marka sadakati üzerinde etkisi olmadığı fakat öz saygının marka imajı ve marka sadakatini etkilediği söylenebilir. Ülke menşenin marka sadakati ve marka imajını etkilememesi, küreselleşmenin teknoloji ve bilimi tüm dünyaya yayması ile bireylerin belirli ülke ürünlerine olan bağlılığının azalması şeklinde izah edilebilir. Pozitif öz saygı faktörünün marka sadakatine etkisinde marka imajının aracılık rolünün olması; öz saygının marka sadakatine etkisi, marka imaj algısının etkisi ile gerçekleşmektedir. Çünkü, pozitif öz saygısı yüksek kişiler, marka imajı yüksek ürünler kullanmaktadır. Dolayısıyla öz saygılarından çok marka imaj algılarından dolayı markalara sadakat gösterdikleri söylenebilir.

Published: July 2022

The chemical composition of waters of the Arzni-Shamiram and Lower Hrazdan canals fed by the Hrazdan River, as well as Hrazdan River water in that area, was studied, and their suitability for irrigation was assessed. Water samples were collected from 7 sampling points and the total amount of salts, electrical conductivity (EC), pH, bicarbonates as well as some toxic microelements (Al, As, Be, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Li, Mn, Mo, Zn, Ni, Pb, Se, V) were determined. It has been shown that waters of the Arzni-Shamiram canal are suitable for irrigation. The water pollution processes in the Lower Hrazdan Canal is observed. Despite the fact that the concentrations of some heavy metals and hydrocarbonates don't exceed the MPC for irrigation, depending on amount and composition of wastewater discharging this system, there is a high probability that their concentrations in the canal exceeds the permissible limit in the near future.

Based on insecticidal strains of Bacillus thuringiensis, highly active melanin-synthesizing producer strains were obtained. A waste-free technology has been developed that provides the simultaneous production of biologically active substances - melanin and insecticidal toxins in one production process, which increases the profitability of their production. Due to the photoprotective property of the synthesized pigment, the insecticidal activity of melaninogenic strains was increased. The biostimulating effect of bacterial water-soluble melanin has been shown on a number of different (including important agricultural) plants.

Effects of Vetiver Grass Strips Technology (Vgt) Adoption on Poverty of Crop Farmers in Nigeria
Authors: John Jonah Ikoku , Samuel Folarin Kehinde , Aderemi Fadare Mudasiru
Published: July 2022

Abia state faces severe soil erosion problem which affects agricultural production and poverty of crop farmers. The use of vetiver grass strips technology (Vgt) helps control soil erosion, enhance crop yield, increase farmers’ income and reduce poverty. However, there is a dearth of information on the effect of adoption of Vgt. on poverty in Abia State. Therefore, the poverty status of crop farmers’ adopters in Abia State was investigated. 250 farming households were randomly selected proportionate to the size of the cells. Data on socio-economics of the farmers, awareness and adoption of Vgt, inputs and outputs of crops, expenditure on food and non-food items were collected using a structured questionnaire. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics, Foster, Greer and Thorbecke model, and probit regression at α0.05. The results showed that the average age of the respondents was 48 years. The household size and farm-size were 6 members and 2ha. 59.2% of the respondents were aware of Vgt but 49.6% adopted. Most of the adopters of Vgt were females with farm size of 1.57 ha, and 42.7% of them had tertiary education. Adoption of Vgt reduced poverty incidence by 21.0% for the adopters. The study recommends effective extension services for  farmers. Vgt being low-cost help to reduce the poverty level of the farmers and hence government should invest more resources on this technology. Further research should be on poverty reduction and involving of government intervention programme in the study area.
