Poor feeding habits are one of the most serious barriers to achieving and preserving health of children under the age of five, as they pose a significant challenge to social and economic growth. To know the socio-demographic profile and to study the prevalence of Infant and young child feeding practices of mothers A cross-sectional study in rural areas of Navsari district, Gujarat, included 243 women, who had one child aged 12 to 23 months preceding data collection. Data were analyzed using statistical software Epi Info 6. About 32% of the infants had received pre-lacteals feeds, most common feed was Gripe water (44.9%). The colostrum was fed by 90 % mothers. Half of mothers had initiated breast-feeding within 1 hour after delivery. Only 88 mothers (36.2%) had given exclusive breast-feeding for 6 months. About half of children had received complementary feeding during 6–9 months of age. Most of the mothers (96.7%) were washing their hands before each feeding of the child whereas 61.7 % were cooking special meal for the child. Majority of mothers (93.8%) think that breast-feeding should be continued for 1 to 2 years. Continuing to emphasise nutrition education could go a long way toward empowering mothers to avoid using pre-lacteal feeds, to sustain exclusive breastfeeding for a prescribed period, to incorporate complementary foods at the appropriate time, and to enhance overall child-care through optimum use of community health workers.

Epidural analgesia using local anaesthetic agent is popular simple, effective & economical way of providing postoperative analgesia. In few previous study opioids were added with local anaesthetics, so that even small doses can provide profound analgesia of longer duration with less side effects. We compared the efficacy of epidural butophanol with tramadol as adjuvant with bupivacaine, for postoperative analgesia in view of safety profile among opioids. Sixty patients undergoing pelvi-acetabular surgery were randomly assigned into two groups B & T in double blinded fashion. Group B received 2ml Butorphanol (2mg) & group T received 2ml of tramadol(100mg) as adjuvant with 8ml Bupivacaine (0.125%) as first does. 1ml Butorphanol (1mg) in group B & 1 ml Tramadol(50mg) in group T as adjuvant with 9ml Bupivacaine (0.125%) as subsequent does when VAS&#62;4. Quality of analgesia assessed using VAS for 24hours. Duration of analgesia calculated by time of first analgesia request. Post-operative nausea vomiting & sedation compared. Both butorphanol group & tramadol group provide adequate analgesia but significantly lesser requirement of analgesic doses was observed in the group T compared to Group B. Duration of analgesia in Group B was about 6-7 hour & in Group T was about 8-9 hours. More PONV in Group T & more sedation in group B seen. Therefore, it suggests that epidural bupivacaine with butorphanol has better quality of analgesia in comparison with bupivacaine with tramadol. Although bupivacaine with tramadol has longer duration of analgesia but causes significant nausea & vomiting.

Benign Breast Diseases, though more frequently responsible for bringing the patient to the doctor, have not found many places in good recent researches. Benign lesions of the breast have assumed increasing importance in recent years because of the public awareness of breast cancer. These benign lumps are a recognized important risk factor for later breast cancer.To study the surgical profile of patient with benign breast diseaseThis retrospective study was conducted at ESIC medical college and Hospital Gulbarga, India. Study conducted after approval of Scientific committee and Ethical committee. Records of all patients undergoing breast surgery from the period March 2016 to March 2021 were analysed, and age, sex, laterality, diagnosis and surgery performed were noted.The most common type of benign breast disease was fibroadenoma in 58.4% of the cases. The most common age group affected was 21-30 years seen in 60.3% of the cases. Right side was most commonly affected in 57.3% of the cases. Benign breast disease as expected is more common in females (98.7%) compared to males who had only eight cases. Most common type of surgery performed was excision in all cases except for duct ectasia in which case microdochtecomy was performed. Circumareolar type of incision was most commonly used in all cases.Fibroadenoma was most common type of benign breast disease affecting 21-30 years of age commonly and right side. Excision remains the most commonly performed surgery for benign breast disease. Most of benign breast lumps surgery was done using circumareolar incision.

Non-resolving pneumonia are not so infrequent with a clinical scenario where multiple diagnostic modalities are required to arrive at a diagnosis. We aimed to assess the role of fiberoptic bronchoscopy in early diagnosis of non-resolving pneumonia. This is a prospective observational study done in department of pulmonary medicine from January 2020 to December 2020. 90 cases of non-resolving pneumonia cases attending the department of pulmonary medicine, AMC were selected after applying inclusion and exclusion criteria. These cases were subjected to fiber optic bronchoscopy. BAL, bronchial brushings and washings were collected and analyzed. Among 90 cases of non-resolving pneumonia studied, 50 to 60 years age group were commonly affected accounting to 33%. Male predominance was observed with 73.3%. Smoking was common observation accounting to 51%. Bacterial pneumonias were found to be commonest etiology followed by tuberculosis, bronchogenic carcinoma and fungal infection accounting to 46.6%; 22.2%; 17.7%; 1.1% respectively. Diagnosis was indeterminate in 12.2% of cases. Fiberoptic bronchoscopy is an excellent aid in diagnosis of non-resolving pneumonia thus enabling to differentiate bacterial pneumonias as well as fungal infection and pulmonary tuberculosis. It also helps to rule out bronchogenic carcinoma.

The purpose of the study was to understand the molecular changes that happen in human cancer, P53 gene mutation. Here, with respect to P53 immunohistochemical staining were taken into consideration as the surrogate for the mutational analysis. This was used for the diagnosis of ovarian cancer. The main aim of the study was to evaluate the immunohistochemical frequency of the P53 and to correlate its expression with the prognosis. In the current study 107 cases associated with ovarian cancer were studied. The samples received were hysterectomy as well as unilateral and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy specimens, which were fixed in 10% neutral buffer formalin and processed routinely. 68.7% of the patients showed P53 malignant ovarian tumours. In the benign, it was considered as negative or in the position of borderline tumour. No statistically significant correlation was shown between the age and P53 expression. There was statistically significant difference between borderline, benign and the malignant tumors. It was also assessed that there was a statistically significant difference between P53 expression and serous carcinoma in the current study. The present study concludes that P53 tumor gene was found to be mutated in more than the 50% of the human cancer and was expressed as the aberrant form of protein. The study also concludes that in borderline tumor, P53 rarely mutates and is results in poor prognosis.

Paenibacillus larvae and their phages; a community science approach to discovery and initial testing of prophylactic phage cocktails against American Foulbrood in New Zealand
Authors: Kok Danielle N. , Zhou Diana , Tsourkas Philippos K. , Hendrickson Heather L. 
Published: July 2023

Background: American foulbrood (AFB) is a devastating disease of the European honey bee (Apis mellifera ) and is found throughout the world. AFB is caused by the bacterium Paenibacillus larvae (P. larvae ). Treatment with antibiotics is strictly forbidden in many regions, including New Zealand. Safe and natural prophylactic solutions to protect honey bees from AFB are needed. Bacteriophages are a well-studied alternative to antibiotics and have been shown to be effective against P. larvae in other countries.
Methods: We employed a community science approach to obtaining samples from around New Zealand to discover novel bacteriophages. Standard isolation approaches were employed for both bacteria and bacteriophages. Host range testing was performed by agar overlay spot tests, and cocktail formulation and in vitro testing were performed in 96-well plate assays, followed by sub-sampling and CFU visualization on agar plates.
Results: Herein, we describe the discovery and isolation of eight P. larvae bacterial isolates and 26 P. larvae bacteriophages that are novel and native to New Zealand. The phage genomes were sequenced and annotated, and their genomes were compared to extant sequenced P. larvae phage genomes. We test the host ranges of the bacteriophages and formulate cocktails to undertake in vitro testing on a set of representative bacterial strains. These results form the basis of a promising solution for protecting honey bees in New Zealand from AFB.
Accumulation of thick fluvial sediments in the Shinano River incised-valley fills: implications for sequence stratigraphy and alluvial architecture
Authors: Hori Kazuaki , Tanabe Susumu , Urabe Atsushi 
Published: July 2023

ABSTRACTThe relationship between fluvial systems and base-level changes, controlled mainly by sea-level fluctuations and tectonic activity, on time scales of 103–104 years, is important for evaluating and improving nonmarine sequence stratigraphy and numerical and physical alluvial architecture models. However, there are not enough quantitative data available from field studies, especially for periods of rapid base-level rise. The Echigo Plain, Japan, is a fluvial–coastal lowland where the tidal range is very small and where a very deep valley was incised by the Shinano River during the latest Pleistocene. The depth of the incised valley near the shoreline, 160 m below mean sea level, is greater than the amount of sea-level fall during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) because of tectonic subsidence. We studied an approximately 100-m-long borehole sediment core obtained from the landward part of the plain, where thick fluvial deposits have accumulated since the LGM. Sediment facies, diatom assemblages, sulfur content, carbon to sulfur ratios, and radiocarbon age dates indicate that most of the core sediments were deposited in a fluvial environment during the past 12 kyr. Sediment accumulation rates were 10–15 m/kyr between 12 and 8 cal kyr BP, and relatively low (less than 5 m/kyr) subsequently, mainly because of glacio-eustatic sea-level rise. The timing of the reduction in the accumulation rate is one possible indicator of the position of the maximum-flooding surface in a sequence composed only of fluvial sediments. The presence of many thin layers of very fine to fine-grained sand (20–80 cm thick), interpreted as crevasse-splay deposits, that formed between 11 and 8 cal kyr BP, when the base level was rising rapidly, implies that crevasse-splay deposits are characteristic of aggrading fluvial sediments and the transgressive systems tract in nonmarine sequence stratigraphy. Tectonic subsidence at approximately 2 m/kyr has contributed markedly to the larger accumulation rate of fluvial sediments of the highstand systems tract on the Echigo Plain, compared with rates in other fluvial–coastal lowlands, since 5–6 cal kyr BP, when the eustatic sea-level rise had mostly ceased.

Published: July 2023

Abstract
The transition to low-carbon systems in Nigeria raises questions about energy security based on the 4As. Energy security not having a universal definition but being defined based on location and situation becomes imperative to analyze as Nigeria plans to achieve her NDC goals of carbon emission and journey towards net zero. This research looks at publicly available literature to analyze the energy security of Nigeria based on availability, affordability, accessibility, and acceptability, presenting the Nigeria energy security of both PRE-NDC and POST-NDC, the literature on related energy securities of other developing countries, the methodology was centered around key indicators for each of the 4A's putting into consideration the NDC target and how it affects the 4A's to improve energy security. The results consider the deviation from business-as-usual to NDC targets by 2030 and net-zero by 2060, looking at subsidy policies, import dependency, energy mix diversity, CO2e, oil price, and energy access statistics as key indicators. The trade-offs that Nigeria would experience in the low-carbon system journey and recommendations on ending the subsidy regime to pave the way for clean energy technology were also recommended. This work is limited to publicly available data in this research study.

Abstract

The serial remote sensing images allow us to view how a certain area has changed and grown across period. Even though these raw images have fewer opportunities to generate information and additional insight, serial remote sensing images (SRSI) offer a significant opportunity to generate clusters and patterns. The implementation of SRSI aggregation is supported by the developments of patterns in a variety of circumstances, which include urbanization, the spread of native vegetation, and farming. We propose a novel outlook to mining sequence patterns that makes use of Ant Colony Optimization and Empirical Mode Decomposition. The newly created Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) and Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) approach is integrated to extract the most important characteristics features of significantly accurate performance from serial remote sensing images based on distinct criteria. The outcomes demonstrate that the accuracy of projected sequence patterns can be greatly improved by combining a new hybrid method with EMD and ACO feature selection. Because of this, the method is appealing for employing a farmland dataset based on serial remote sensing images to create ground-based stream-flow for strategically extracting spatially sequential patterns despite requesting less computational mining time and cost.
