Background: The prevalence of diabetes is increasing all over the world and it is associated with different genetic factors as well as environmental factors. The increasing prevalence of type 2 diabetes among young people has led to an increase in number of pregnancies with this complication. As the incidence of diabetes is more in Kerala, the present study was undertaken to compare the socio-demographic determinants among pregnant mothers with normal gestation and mothers with GDM.Methods: A hospital based cross-sectional study was carried out and sample size was calculated using the formulae of (Zα + Zβ) 2 × 2 × P × Q/d2. The calculated sample size was 108 and consecutive sampling technique was used for data collection. A semi-structured questionnaire containing socio-demographic and obstetrics details were used as a study tool and an interview schedule was used for data collection.Results: Out of total 111 postnatal mothers, majority 80 (72.1%) belongs to the age group of 21-30 years, and more than half 64(57.66%) of mothers belongs to Hindu religion. When the socio-demographic and obstetrics details of mothers were compared among GDM and normal mothers it was found that there was statistically significant difference between religion, family history of diabetes and occurrence of GDM (p=0.001). Among obstetric details history of abortion, BMI of mothers and birth weight show statistically significant difference among two groups (p<0.001).Conclusions: The study reveals that the socio demographic factors and obstetric factors influence the occurrence of GDM.

Authors: Rajan Xavier C. , . Ravishankar
Published: May 2019

Background: Globally, malnutrition among school age children is a major public health concern. The objectives of the study were to determine the prevalence of under nutrition (thinness and stunting) among children aged 6 to 14 years in a rural area of Coimbatore district; to determine the socio-demographic factors influencing under nutrition (thinness and stunting) among these children.Methods: A community based- cross sectional study was conducted from December 2015 to July 2016 in the field practice area of PSG Rural Health Training Center Vedapatti. Out of the 14 villages in this area, five villages (clusters) were selected by cluster sampling. Data was collected from 702 children aged 6 to 14 years in these five villages using a structured questionnaire. Z score was used to calculate nutritional status. Thinness is defined as the BMI for age (BAZ) <-2SD.Stunting is defined as the Height-for-age (HAZ) <-2SD.The association of Thinness with socio-demographic factors were studied by univariate analysis. The association of Stunting with socio-demographic factors were studied by univariate analysis and logistic regression analysis.Results: The prevalence of Thinness was 15.5% (95%CI: 12.82% to 18.18%) and that of stunting was 18.8% (95%CI: 15.91% to 21.69%). In univariate analysis there was no statistically significant association between thinness and socio-demographic factors. Stunting showed statistically significant association with educational status (illiteracy) of mothers and working mothers in logistic regression analysis.Conclusions: The current study revealed that undernutrition as indicated by thinness and stunting was prevalent to some extent among these children. Stunting was significantly higher among those children whose mothers were illiterate and working. Health education and encouraging working mothers will help to solve this.

Authors: Kumar Parepalli Vinay , Jothula Kishore Y.
Published: May 2019

Background: The change of disease pattern from communicable to non communicable or chronic diseases leading to end stage organ damage has led to the increase in the requirement of organ transplantation. Though the quality of organ transplantation has improved, the organ transplantation rate in India is 0.26 per million. Such a low rate is due to the lack of knowledge and misconception about organ donation.Methods: A pre-tested, semi-structured questionnaire was prepared, participants were chosen at random from the study population, they were interviewed with the questionnaire and their responses were computed and analysed.Results: In this study population, all of them knew about organ donation. The study shows that 62.7% of the students have adequate knowledge about organ donation. 67% of them would like to donate organs in future and 85% were willing to motivate their family to be an organ donor.Conclusions: The present rate of organ transplantation would be improved only when the society is educated with the knowledge, uncover the myths and misconceptions. It is also important that the organizations as to where and how to approach for the donation is known to all. Media being a powerful weapon of the generation can be a great tool to reach the society.

Authors: Jadhav Ashwini P. , Dharmapuri Venu M. , Shyam Ashok K. , Sancheti Parag K.
Published: May 2019

Background: Backache is a common cause of morbidity among doctors and 50% of the obstetricians and gynaecologists suffering from this attribute it to working posture. Occupational injuries are poorly analyzed amongst these professionals. Work related injuries have adverse effect on health and work performance due to discomfort caused by pain. Awareness of ergonomics, correct posture and strategical assessment of risk factors is needed for the prevention of work related musculoskeletal injuries amongst obstetricians and gynaecologists.Methods: A survey based study was performed. Informed consent was taken for participation. The questionnaire included 16 questions categorised into: demographics; injury data; impact of injury; and general mental health. Hard copy of the questionnaire and online forms of the questionnaire were used to complete the data collection.Results: The response rate for the survey was 85% of the doctors who reported to have experienced pain in the last year. The most common site was back, which was followed by the neck and knees. 71.4% of doctors reported injuries attributed to work.Conclusions: The result demonstrates the prevalence of work related musculoskeletal injuries and their effects. These injuries are highly underreported. Ergonomics and work related injury prevention in this profession is a suggestion for solution as more data is needed regarding the analysis and risk factor assessment.

Authors: Suryawanshi Sudam R. , Sonawane Sharon S.
Published: May 2019

Background: Life-style related risk factors are mainly implicated for increased burden of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) globally. In India, 21.1% total deaths in 2010 were due to CVDs. Compelling evidence shows that India stands to lose $2.17 trillion (of 2010 dollars) between 2012- 2030 due to CVDs. A study related to cardiovascular risk behaviour among medical students is essential, considering their role as future physicians and role models in public health intervention programs. There are very few studies among the budding physicians, especially in India.Methods: This cross sectional study was carried out among 240 undergraduate MBBS medical students in a metropolitan city. Data was collected by using a semi-structured questionnaire consisting of close and open ended questions. Assessment of demographic profile, medical profile, alcohol use, dietary habits, physical activity and stress (PSS-10) was done. The data was entered in Microsoft Excel and analysed using SPSS 20 statistical software. Descriptive statistical measures like percentage, mean and standard deviations were calculated. An inferential statistical measure like Chi square was applied.Results: Out of total 9 risk factors, the prevalence of ≤3 risk factors was 56.7% and ˃3 risk factors were 43.3%. 100% medical students had unhealthy dietary habits, 90.8% had stress, 59.6% had pre-hypertension/hypertension and 43.3% had insufficient physical activity.

The effects of N fertilization on soybean (Glycine max L. Merrill) yield and quality under different drought stress levels
Authors: Basal Oqba , Szabó András
Published: May 2019

As a result to continuous exploitation in agriculture, soil nutrients decrease, and one way of re-fertilizing is by mineral fertilization. However, applying mineral fertilizers should be controlled and pre-evaluated in terms of quantity to be added, as the excessive amounts could negatively affect both plants and soil. Fertilization is very important under abiotic stress conditions, like drought stress which has negative effects on both quantity (yield) and quality (seed content) of crops, especially drought-sensitive crops such as soybean; it is a very important legume with high content of both protein and oil. In order to study the influence of both nitrogen fertilization and drought stress on the yield and the seed quality of two soybean cultivars, an experiment was conducted in Debrecen, Hungary in 2017. Three N fertilization rates; 0, 35 and 105 kg ha-1 were applied under three irrigation regimes; severe drought (SD), moderate drought (MD) and no drought (ND). The results showed drought stress to negatively affect the yield of both cultivars by different extents; it also manipulated both protein and oil concentrations. (N) fertilization could enhance the yield of (MD) and (ND), but not (SD) treatment when applied in a relatively-low rate, whereas it negatively affected the yield when high rate was applied to (ND) treatment. The protein concentration increased as the (N) fertilization rate increased, whereas the oil concentration was not affected by (N) fertilization, but rather by drought. It was concluded that the high-rate application of nitrogen is not always recommended for soybean, especially when water is available for plants. (N) fertilization has a noticeable effect on the protein but not on the oil concentration. Further studies on the best N rate when drought stress is applied at certain growth-stage will help to better understand the combined effects of both traits on soybean yield and quality.

Authors: Bodor Péter , Szekszárdi Andrea , Varga Zsuzsanna , Baló Borbála
Published: May 2019

Grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) leaves show high morphological diversity alongside the shoot. This variability has been investigated in this study to explore the change in leaf size, leaf thickness, stomata density and stomata size among the 1st, 5th and 10th leaves on the main shoots and leaves on the laterals. Results showed that leaf size altered from the basal abaxial leaves to the middle of the shoot, while the laterals had the smallest leaves. Number of stomata also varied significantly regarding the different levels of the canopy. First leaves on the shoots had the least stomata per unit leaf area while this number increased above. In contrast with this the size, i.e. length and width of the stomata did not differ. Leaf thickness was the lowest on the leaves of the lateral shoots, while the values decreased from the 1st to the 10th nodes. These results raised the question about the ontogeny and heteroblasty of the grapevine foliage.

In Mathematic, student’s reading comprehension ability can be seen in their ability to change contextual Math problems into Math models. The ability of student changing a text which contain Math problems into Math models must have connection with their ability in understanding geometry problems. Considering that rigor level, the highest level of geometry thinking ability, a deep understanding and high rigor for student to understand the text. There must be a correlation between students’ reading comprehension ability and geometry thinking levels. The subjects of this research are 31 students of 10th grade in science class. They were given van Hiele Test to check their geometry thinking levels. The result of this research shows that the result of students’ thinking level test and reading comprehension test has 0.466 as coefficient of correlation which means that there is a positive correlation between both abilities, the correlation is not strong.
Electric Parameter Extractions Using a Broadband Technique from Coaxial Line Discontinuities
Authors: MOUKANDA MBANGO Franck , Ndagijimana Fabien
Published: May 2019

We have proposed a simple technique for extracting high frequency material complex relative permittivity from 0.1 GHz up to beyond 5.1 GHz despite the test fixture’s discontinuities along with the characteristic impedance. The frequency range limitation depends on the test fixture’s sizes. Based on the S-parameter measurements, the overall technique associates the test fixture in which the sample to characterize is inserted and the technique for altering the propagation constant of the considered region. Mathematics concepts, through their formulations, allow extracting material complex relative permittivity. The technique foundation is primarily based on the fixture calibration when there is a filling up of vacuum. A coaxial test cell is used to validate the extraction procedure. That fixture is suitable for measuring material electric parameters used in medical and civil engineering, telecommunications, and oil and gas domains. We have presented results ensuing from measures of spring water and biological materials: human tissue and liquid 900 MHz. Both biological materials are liquids and react as a muscle subjected to an electromagnetic wave. The technique is broadband, making it easy to fill up the test cell with the sample to be tested.
