“EVALUATION OF CORD BLOOD TO SCREEN FOR NEONATAL ANEMIA AND ITS CORRELATION WITH MATERNAL ANEMIA IN A TERTIARY MEDICAL COLLEGE IN EASTERN INDIA”
Authors: Biswas Soumika , Biswas Lekha
Published: November 2022

An estimated 87% of pregnant women in India suffers from iron deciency anemia in some point in their pregnancy. Maternal anemia has been found to be associated with low birth weight babies, asphyxia, preterm delivery and neurological decits & the neonatal iron stores are solely dependent on the transplacental iron transport, about 1gm in term newborns. The transfer of iron from the mother to the foetus is tightly regulated by factors such as transferrin, coelomic uid and hepcidin. This study aims to nd whether maternal anemia has a correlation with neonatal anemia. Also, it aims to screen for neonatal anemia based on cord blood evaluation.The parameters used for comparison from cord blood are serum iron, ferritin and total iron binding capacity (TIBC) and blood hemoglobin concentration. This study was conducted over a period of two months, from July 22 nd 2021 to September 21 , 2021, in Medical College & Hospital , Kolkata and a total of 124 mother-infant pairs were taken out of which 62 were anemic mothers (Hb<11g/dl) and 62 non anemic. The cord Hb, iron and ferritin levels were signicantly (p<0.05) lower in the anemic mothers than in the non anemic ones. The cord TIBC in the anemic group was higher but it was not signicant (p=0.083). There was a moderate positive correlation between mother's Hb and cord iron levels, r= 0.46, p< 0.00001, a slight negative correlation between mother's Hb and cord TIBC was observed but the values were not signicant, r= -0.13, p=0.31, serum ferritin in cord blood was found to have moderate positive correlation with maternal Hb, r= 0.40, p < 0.00001. This study was able to establish a correlation between maternal Hb and cord Hb, iron and ferritin thus showing that maternal iron status affects the iron prole of the neonate. This emphasises the need for proper iron and folic acid supplementation during the course of the pregnancy.

INDIA'S FOREIGN POLICY ON ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES: CHALLENGES AND WAYFORWARD
Authors: Kumar Naveen
Published: November 2022

Not so long ago,many believed that the pursuit of clean air,clean water,and healthy forests was a worthy goal,but not part
of our national security.Today environmental issues are part of the mainstream of Indian foreign policy.Environmental
policy is aimed at balancing environmental protection and the conservation of natural resources with other policy goals,
such as affordable energy as well as economic growth and employment.In the Directive Principles of State Policy,Article
48 says "the state shall endeavor to protect and improve the environment and to safeguard the forests and wildlife of the
country"; Article 51-A states that "it shall be the duty of every citizen of India to protect and improve the natural
environment including forests, lakes, rivers and wildlife and to have compassion for living creatures." At the
international level, environmental protection is embedded in wider policy concerns and is being woven into broader
foreign policy strategy of climate policy, while domestically; it is being shaped to serve national and sub-national
development interests.India is emerging as a key player in climate negotiations,while at the national and sub-national
levels; the environmental protection policy scene is becoming more active and more determined. It is essential to
unravel this complex landscape if we are to understand why policy looks the way it does, and the extent to which India
might contribute to a future international framework for tackling environmental degradation as well as how international
parties might cooperate with and support India's domestic efforts.
A Dynamic Time-Bound Access Control for Secure Hierarchical Content Sharing
Authors: Odelu Vanga
Published: November 2022

With rapid growth of mobile users, protecting content from unauthorized users become a complex problem. The concept of temporal role-based access control reduces complexity of user management and restricts access to specified time-slots. But, content privacy is still questionable in case of system resources compromise unexpectedly. Therefore, cryptographic solution for time-bound hierarchical content management is an emerging problem. Most of the related schemes focused on individual user keys and/or revocation, but not on time-bound keys. Hence, these are not well suitable for subscription-based services like pay-TV and newspaper. In this paper, we propose a cryptographic time-bound access control with constant size time-bound keys. In our scheme, subscribed time-slots embed into individual user keys to avoid periodical broadcasting of temporal keys. We prove that our scheme is selectively secure under chosen-ciphertext attack. We then discuss cloud-based application to show the strategies of efficient revocation and reduce user computational overheads. 
Sparse reconstruction methods for wideband source localization in spherical harmonics domain
Authors: Goel Dr Arun , Hegde Dr Rajesh
Published: November 2022

Wideband acoustic source localization is a challenging task especially in the presence of noise. Generally wideband source localization is done by averaging the Direction of Arrival (DOA) estimates obtained over multiple frequencies or narrow subbands by the method of frequency smoothing. Localization of multiple wideband sources which are correlated is even more challenging. In this work acoustic source localization under these challenging conditions is addressed. A sparse reconstruction framework is developed for wideband source localization in the Spherical Harmonics (SH) domain. The proposed framework jointly computes both the azimuth and elevation. In contrast to earlier methods of source localization in SH domain this work utilizes the expression for the SH coefficients of the amplitude density of the plane wave, to develop the sparse reconstruction framework. An expression for Cramer Rao Lower Bound (CRLB) on the DOA using this framework is also derived for the wideband sources. This CRLB is shown to easily generalize for narrowband sources as well. The performance of the proposed method is compared with MUltiple Signal Classification in SH domain (MUSIC-SH) and Steered Response Power in SH domain (SRP-SH). The performance is evaluated for correlated narrowband and wideband sources through simulations, conducting experiments in an anechoic chamber and under reverberant conditions. Using the proposed framework, it is shown that correlated narrowband and wideband sources can be resolved reasonably well when compared to conventional methods of acoustic source localization in SH domain.

Designing value creation. Towards a transformation of peripheral neighbourhoods
Authors: Quaglio Caterina , Todella Elena , Lami Isabella
Published: November 2022

This article proposes an integration of methods and sources from the field of architectural design, on the one hand, and evaluation disciplines, on the other. By analysing some emerging trends in the residential demand, highlighted by the COVID-19 pandemic but referable to phenomena characterised by much longer trajectories, the research aims to highlight certain criticalities and shortcomings in the current design and evaluation practices and to shed new light on the potential value of spaces that are typically underused – and underestimated – but highly transformable. The text thus introduces a critical-methodological reflection, which offers a new perspective for the study of neighbourhoods characterised by a high level of “peripheralisation”.

The worsening of climate risks means climate adaptation measures and the acceleration of transition towards carbon neutrality need to be strengthened according to international Building renovation guidelines. The vulnerability to climate impacts and the inadequate performance of the built environment in the suburbs of cities determine the urgency required to intervene on these contexts through regenerative processes oriented to achieve the objectives of Green Transition. This paper presents the results of the research carried out by the Federico II University “PER_CENT/ PERIPHERIES AT THE CENTRE”. The research develops a methodology for the ecosystem-based renewal of the projects of the post-earthquake PSER (Programma Sperimentale di Edilizia Residenziale) in North Naples.
Building the “Earth City”. A vision for the suburbs in Reggio Calabria
Authors: Tornatora Marina , Crupi Maria Lorenza
Published: November 2022

The state of decay of the Italian social housing heritage built in the second half of the 20th century calls for a reflection on the prospects of contemporary housing. After a rapid examination of some pivotal regeneration interventions developed in the European context, two suburban districts of the city of Reggio Calabria, Archi CEEP and Arghillà, are taken as emblematic case studies. Here, a design hypothesis is proposed for them: following a reinterpretation of some modern and contemporary theories on the city, this proposal brings the attention back to the land, based on the idea of an expanded house that welcomes the landscape, ,that is, an “earth city”, a formal unity of city and countryside, city and nature, which outlines a possible research perspective on the theme of living in a new urbanity.
From the building refurbishment to the urban regeneration of the Quartiere Cogne of Aosta. A multidisciplinary approach
Authors: Berta Mauro , Caneparo Luca
Published: November 2022

The Quartiere Cogne was erected at the beginning of the last century to house workers and managers employed at the new steel works. The whole neighbourhood is now affected by a wide-ranging transformation project which combines the features of aspects which really pertain to architectural building refurbishment within a broader framework of urban regeneration. Part of this project is financed by the National Programme for the Quality of Living. The design develops dwelling models aimed at strengthening the social structure at various levels (family, block, community, neighbourhood, local associations), making the most of local features. It includes initiatives to foster inclusion based on a broad network of infrastructures and services. An important feature is transition spaces, semi-private and semi-public, in which the idea and the quality of community is challenged. The aim is to give more natural and sustainable responses to instances of sharing and common use for collective housing in the Alpine area.

Authors: Bano Saeeda , Iqbal Samina , Abbasi Kanwal , Siddiqui Kauser , Aman A.
Published: November 2022

The Catalase (H2O2 oxidoreductase, EC.1.11.1.6) is an enzyme that catalyses the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide to oxygen and water to protect the cell against oxidative stress. The aim of current study is to observe the effect of increasing oxidative stress on the catalase synthesis. Results of the study shows that the increase in oxidative stress by adding 0.1 % cholesterol in medium raises the catalase production by B. Subtilis KIBGE HAS 1. The molecular mass of this partially purified catalase was found to be 210 kDa by native PAGE. The enzyme was purified up to 8.9 %. The enzyme exhibits high thermal stability and retain 80.2 % of its original activity when stored at 50°C for 120 min. with Km and Vmax of 41.89 mM and 77.97 U/mg of protein respectively. Among various metal ions, Na+, Ca+ and Ba+ ions enhance the catalase activity however; Hg+ causes an inhibitory effect. The findings of this study give advantage to industries regarding augmentation of catalase production by generating the oxidative stress and therefore indirectly increase the production of enzyme.
