Organisms that live in waters are sensitive to changes in the water quality in which they live. The quality of the water in the Cikaniki River is threatened by the gold mining industry, illegal mining, agricultural activities, and settlements. One of the organisms that will be affected by these environmental changes is fish. This research aims to obtain a diversity index of fish species and to determine the content of heavy metals Mercury (Hg), Arsenic (As) on the water, and fish. Research on the diversity of fish in Cikaniki River, Bogor Regency, was carried out in January–March 2020. The research was conducted at five selected stations, and each station carried out three times the sampling of fish and water. The metal content test process is carried out at the Chemical Laboratory of the University of Nusa Bangsa. The research instrument used was the observation sheet for fish identification and heavy metal content. Fish identification was carried out at the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences Laboratory, University of Nusa Bangsa. Identification use characteristics observed included body shape, body length height, color pattern, muzzle shape, fin shape, number of fins, and tail shape. Calculation of heavy metals using an ICP–OES (Inductively Coupled Plasma) tool. This research found seven fish species in the Cikaniki river; based on its dominance, four types of fish dominate: Nemacheilus chrysolaimos, Puntius bionotatus, Channa striata, and Glyptothorax platypogonides. The content of heavy metal mercury (Hg) in water is still below the standard quality threshold, while the Hg content in fish is above the quality standard with a value range of 0.5 - 1.09 mg/kg. The content of heavy metal Arsenic (As) in water ranges from 0.02 - 0.6 mg/L, with the highest value found at stations 4 (irrigation canals), As in the highest fish at stations 1 and 2 with a value range of 1-1.1 mg/kg. The conclusion of this research is that there are seven species of fish and fish in the Cikaniki river which contain high Hg and As heavy metals.

evaluating and disposing of produces, service and
ideas which they expect to satisfy their needs”. Thus,
the study of consumer behavior is the study of how an
individual makes decision to spend their available
resources-money, time and effort on consumption
related items. However, it may be noted that consumer
behavior research today goes far beyond “what, why,
how, when, where, and how often” fact of consumer
behavior and also consider the use of goods they buy
and evaluations after use there may be many
repercussions after the consumer make a purchase.

ALK INHIBITORS AND POSSIBLE SMALL MOLECULES OF NON-SMALL CELL LUNG CANCER: A LITERATURE REVIEW
Authors: Paul Utpalendu , Banerjee Subhadeep
Published: June 2021

Lung cancer is among the deadliest cancers for
humans and makes up about 13% of all diagnosed cancer.
NSCLC, which accounts for 85% of all lung cancer is
epithelial lung cancer and consists of four stages. Many
proteins can cause NSCLC, among them is Anaplastic
Lymphoma Kinase (ALK). ALK-EML-4 fusion form
causes tumorigenesis. Patients with NSCLC having EML4-
ALK gene rearrangements are not associated with
ethnicity, smoking or sex. According to this factor, many
available small molecules have been developed which can
inhibit ALK and therefore decreases the progression of
NSCLC in patients but certain limitations of these drugs
have led to the discovery of more potent small molecules.
Treatment with small molecules has provided effective
clinical benefit with very little toxicity. This study aims at
finding potent small molecules using BindingDB according
to their IC50 values to overcome the resistance of preexisting drug molecules.
BUILDING CRACKS: CAUSES AND PREVENTIONS
Authors: Zanke Anitya S
Published: June 2021

Generally, there is no building construction with
zero cracks. It’s a very common and unavoidable problem
in any concrete construction structure. Cracks affect
structural safety as well as the beautiful and artistic
appearance of any construction. Everyone wishes their
construction or building to be crack free, but it is not an
easy task or almost impossible. Various types of cracks
start to appear on the non-structural and structural part
of any construction. These cracks are the result of some
unwanted or faulty steps taken during construction.
Sometimes, cracks can be a serious concern about the
safety of any construction. Cracks do not risk the safety
directly, but they encourage some acts which cause major
safety problems. Therefore, it is very important to detect
cracks before they create any serious safety issue and take
preventive measures. However, cracks cannot be
completely prevented, but can be controlled by using
adequate materials and techniques. The present paper
analyses reasons of cracks formation and provides some
techniques and measures that can prevent cracks and related issues.

Authors: Venkatesh Surya , Mohanty Smruti Rekha , Pal Vijay Singh , Sharma Himani , Mathpal Sakshi , Yadav Nikita
Published: June 2021

Epigenetics, essentially, is the study of chemical
reactions that influence gene expression at specific times
and locations or shed light on how environmental
interactions lead to a differential change in gene
expression. Some of the epigenetic mechanisms like
methylation might affect individual susceptibility to a
range of diseases. Thus, these discoveries pave the way
for exploring fundamental science research that has
illuminated how does a gain or loss of epigenetic “methyl
marks” affects not only disease development and
progression, but also phenotypic expression. In the
studies conducted in the last twenty years, it has been
discovered that a number of signalling pathways
associated with different cancers can be activated by
proteins of viruses. Patients suffering from varied
cancers were detected with Human Lymphoma Virus-1,
a causative agent of T-cell Lymphoma and Adult T-cell
Leukemia. Initiation and expansion of cancers usually
pertain to several factors and causes starting with the
actuation of the first genetic alteration in the cell during
mitosis directing augmentation of several somatic
mutations with specific times for each one.

Authors: Popat Yogesh
Published: June 2021

This paper depicts the utilization of
microteaching session for the analysis of attitude and
perception of teachers towards microteaching to
enhance their core competencies in teaching skill. The
session was conducted for three days at one of the day
schools in Indore, The Delhi Public Elementary
School. The qualitative and quantitative methods were
used and the presentation session was conducted for
the teachers to analyse the skills of group of 30
teachers. The finding of the study reflects that there is
a drastic build in confidence, attitude and perception
of the teacher before and after the micro teaching
session was conducted. A questionnaire and an
interview session was also conducted at the end of
every presentation and the finding shows that teachers
believed that this session gives a chance to understand
their weakness and strength related to their
professional teaching. The results also reflect that the
teachers were able to establish the skills of: planning,
demonstration, explaining learning outcomes,
assessment and management of student’s behaviours.
At the end of the session teachers also agreed to
common conclusion that the microteaching session
must be the part of the routine process of every school,
which not helped them to build confidence and
improve their skill but it also helped to share the
teaching methodology among each other.

WORK-LIFE BALANCE: A CASE STUDY ANALYSIS ON GOOGLE AND A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF PRACTICES FOLLOWED IN NORWAY AND INDIA
Authors: Singh Deepa
Published: June 2021

The concept of work life balance emerged
during the Industrial Revolution. In those days
Industrialists agreed upon labour union’s demand of
‘One day off’. Later on, this is converted into ‘two day off’
which is followed in all the western countries. Grady et al
(2008) stated that the term’ work-life balance’ is more
comprehensive and includes “family, community,
recreation and personal time.”
The objectives of the research are to study the impact of
practices followed in Norway and India on work-life
balance, to gain insight on Google company’s work-life
balance practices, to identify and suggest vital work-life
balance practices that can be applied in Indian context.
The research is descriptive in nature. The data has been
collected mainly from secondary sources – research
papers, annual report of companies (employee
engagement) and articles.
The tools used for achieving objectives and analysing are
comparison method, case study analysis and survey
method. The comparative and case study analysis shows
that the education system, job security, income inequality
are some of the factors which hinder the work-life balance
in India. Flexi hours, time for creativity, family
participation in workplace boost the enthusiasm and
morale of the employees.
The research is based on secondary sources. The primary
data would more effectively convey the problems faced in
work life balance. The work-life balance practices
followed by only one company is taken into the study due
to time constraint. The comparative analysis of work-life
balance practices of big films would give better insight
and would help in deriving dynamic solution. The sector
centred, institution centred or gender centred study will
give broader overview of the work-life balance. The
search acts a base for comparative analysis.
DESIGN AND SIMULATION OF TORSION BAR(ARB) FOR FSAE USING MATLAB
Authors: Pavan Jonnada Parimala , Dondapati Dr. Sreekanth
Published: June 2021

Formula SAE is a student design
competition organized by SAE
International (previously known as the Society of
Automotive Engineers, SAE). The concept
behind Formula SAE is that a fictional
manufacturing company has contracted a
student design team to develop a small Formulastyle race car. The prototype race car is to be
evaluated for its potential as a production item.
Each student team designs, builds and tests a
prototype based on a series of rules, whose
purpose is both ensuring on-track safety and
promoting clever problem solving. An anti-roll
bar is a part of automobile suspensions that helps
reduce the body roll of a vehicle during fast
cornering or over road irregularities. It connects
opposite wheels together through
short lever arms linked by a torsion spring. A
sway bar increases the
suspension's roll stiffness—its resistance to roll
in turns, independent of its spring rate in the
vertical direction. In this research paper,
calculation for the anti-roll bar mechanism will
be simpler, and more accurate than hand
calculations. Calculation was done using
MATLAB and further analysis using FEA in
ANSYS.
MITIGATION OF CROP RESIDUE BURNING INDUCED AIR POLLUTION IN NEW DELHI – A REVIEW
Authors: Srinivasan Gopalakrishnan , Abirami Arumugam
Published: June 2021

The atmosphere of New Delhi during
the months of October to the January next year
(every year) remains critical due to factors such as
stubble burning in the nearby state of Punjab, air
pollution rising out of Diwali fireworks and the
smog during December and January. Stubble
burning is the intentional incineration of paddy /
any other field stubbles by farmers after the
harvest. It is usually done to eliminate pests such
as rats, crickets and hoppers. The availability of
short time between rice harvesting and sowing of
wheat is the most important reason for burning of
crop residues. Also yield and quality of wheat gets
severely affected if there is delay in sowing. Since
the time gap is very limited (about 3 – 4 weeks)
between rice and wheat, burning of crop residues
is preferred since it is the quickest and easiest
solution for the farmers. According to reports,
New Delhi, Noida and Ghaziabad recorded a peak
Air Quality Index (AQI) of around 480 – 490 in
the month of November 2019. Health effects of air
pollution include respiratory diseases, skin and
eye irritation and other ailments. An important
factor is shortage of labor contributing to burning
of rice straw. Apart from stubble burning,
farmers burn wood for domestic cooking, removal
of municipal solid wastes and accidental /
intentional wildfires. Use of combined harvester –
Happy Seeder machine is a profitable and less
labour-intensive management of rice residue. Yet
many farmers still have the perception that there
are no alternative solutions for crop residue
management. Besides Happy Seeder machine,
there are other machines such as rotavator,
reaper binder and no-till seed drill that can be
alternatives for crop residue burning. In 2019 –
20, the Punjab government disbursed a certain
amount to farmers for not burning stubble as
compensation, yet many farmers adopted the
stubble burning process. Other measures such as
adoption of villages by Confederation of Indian
Industries, MoU with institutes for wast

Published: June 2021

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a specific form of chronic progressive fibrosing interstitial pneumonia of unknown etiology that affects only the lungs and is associated with the histological and / or radiological pattern of common interstitial pneumonia. The clinical substrate for IPF is progressive dyspnea and dry cough. The characteristic auscultatory sign of IPF is inspiratory crepitus. Fibrosis is an important morphological component of IPF. The leading CT sign of IPF is a “honeycomb” lung (local air cysts located subpleurally and having similar sizes from 2–3 to 10 mm with clearly delineated walls). Mostly people over 60 years old are ill, often smokers, or with a history of smoking. In 60% of patients, the course of IPF is progressive, death within 5 years in 40% of cases. In 30–50% of cases, IPF requires the exclusion of other forms of interstitial lung disease. To date, it has been established that the basic drugs in the treatment of IPF with proven efficacy are nintedanib and pirfenidone. This article presents a clinical case of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis in a 63-year-old patient who was hospitalized in the pulmonology department. The given example justifies the need for increased vigilance among pulmonologists and general practitioners when interpreting the clinical manifestations of the disease.

Review of nutritional guidelines "Nutrition First" for adolescent, pregravid and postpartum periods by International Federation of Gynaecology and Obstetrics
Authors: Gromova O. A.
Published: June 2021

Nutrition during adolescence, pregravid and postpartum is a major public health challenge, as it affects not only the health of adolescents and women, but also the health of future generations. Therefore, the International Federation of Gynaecology and Obstetrics' guidelines aim to address a number of nutritional concerns for adolescents and young women before, during and after pregnancy. Health care providers should think about nutrition first, with a focus on optimizing the nutrition and health of adolescents and mothers from the pre-conception period. This approach will help to achieve significant positive results in ensuring the health of women and their children, as well as in ensuring the health, life expectancy and well-being of future generations. The main findings on the use of micronutrients (vitamins and minerals) are presented. It is known that the number of calories required for the development of a child during pregnancy does not increase significantly, while the requirements for vitamins and minerals increase significantly. Therefore, pregnant women should focus on increasing their micronutrient intake and try to limit their intake of empty calorie foods.

Published: June 2021

The purpose: to consider modern concepts of epidemiology, biological characteristics, pathogenesis, clinical manifestations, principles of therapy and prevention of human papillomavirus infection.

Basic provisions. In the last decade, there has been a steady increase in diseases associated with the human papillomavirus (HPV). The prevalence of human papillomavirus infection of the genitals in the world has increased more than 10 times, it is found in 13 % of the population. Cervical cancer remains one of the most common forms of HPV-associated malignancy in women. About 570 thousand new cases of cervical cancer are diagnosed in the world every year, while the increase in incidence over the past 10 years was 7.8 %, and mortality was 13.1 %. In recent years, scientists have paid close attention to the study of assessing the effect of HPV on the endometrium and the degree of its participation in the development of GGE. From the standpoint of the latest scientific data, the generality of the influence of HPV on any epithelium should be considered through the prism of squamous cell metaplasia. Currently, there are still many unsolved scientific and practical issues, primarily related to the regional characteristics of the prevalence of various types of HPV, which determines the direction of cervical screening, as well as clinical manifestations during coinfection, dictating the need for a differentiated approach to patient management tactics.

Conclusion. A review of modern literature data indicates that most studies on various aspects of the influence of HPV on the reproductive health of women remain the subject of discussion, which dictates the need for further research.
