Identifying the most influential factors affecting the student’s performance plays a vital role in improvising student’s academic results. The conventional counseling is a time consuming process to understand students’ performance. Machine Learning techniques play a major role in educational institutions to estimate the students, performance leading to better performance in placements. The major objective is to find behavior patterns of students in a timely and accurate manner. We find out the groups of students who need to be counseled in time. The system uses parameters such as attendance status, extra circular activities, grade, technical skills, previous semester results, grasping capability, aptitude grade, interaction with lecturers etc. This also helps faculty members to identify the most influential factors affecting the students’ performance. Analyzing student mental issues for low academic performances is a complex task in the current education sector. The system uses data science technique called as "Association Learning" to find the patterns. The Eclat algorithm is used to find patterns. The proposed system builds as real time application useful to educational institutions to understand students’ behavioral patterns. The system helps faculty to identify the most influential factors affecting the students’ performance. A web browser in the future can be developed and used as an application. More number of parameters can be added to predict the students’ performance.

Introduction: Congenital anomalies are structural, behavioral, functional, or metabolic defects that occur before the birth of a baby, and their nature and type are highly dependent on the causative agent. It refers to changes in embryonic or fetal development caused by genetic, environmental, or unknown factors that result in physical and/or mental impairment. This study aims to evaluate the various types of abnormalities in newborns with congenital anomalies. Methods: This prospective observational study was conducted at the Pediatric Medicine and Pediatric Surgery departments of Dhaka Shishu Hospital, Dhaka, Bangladesh. Eighty (80) newborns were included in the study using a purposive sampling method. The study was conducted during the time from April 2012 to September 2012. The aim of the study was to evaluate the various types of abnormalities in newborns with congenital anomalies. A pre-designed questionnaire was completed for every neonate including H/O regular maternal antenatal care with the taking of TT and MMR vaccine, any maternal disease or fever with rash, taking any offending drug, use of abortifacient, exposure to radiation or industrial hazards, feeding habit including smoking or use of alcohol and clinical and anthropological examination. Results: Eighty neonates were presented with congenital anomalies. Male infants were 52(65.0%) and female infants were 28(35.0%). Among congenital heart diseases TGA found in 4(5.0%), TOF 2(2.5%), VSD 4(5.0%), PDA 5(6.3) cases. According to the patient’s abnormalities, hydrocephalus was found in 14(17.5%), encephalocele in 4(5.0%) & meningocele, myelomeningocele was found in 13(16.3%) cases. Club foot in 8(10.0%) syndactyly, polydactyly was in 6(7.5%) and cleft lip and palate were in 16(20.0%) cases. Anorectal malformations were observed in 11(13.8%) cases. Ambiguous genitalia were 11(13.8%) cases. Previous maternal history of abnormal delivery shows Encephalocele, meningocele, myelomeningocele, club foot was 9(11.4%), IUGR 3(3.8%), preterm birth 7(8.8%), stillbirth 3(3.8%) and infants death was 3(3.8%). Conclusion: Most frequent birth defect was cleft lip and/or palate followed by congenital heart diseases, hydrocephalus, myelomeningocele, ambiguous genitalia, and anorectal malformations. The study of birth defects in underdeveloped countries should continue.

Sporting performance is dependent upon the athlete’s readiness to act, which facilitates the strengthening of the bond between stimulus and response. Thus, an athlete is highly motivated and eager to exhibit the best performance in the modern sporting world under tremendous load. For elevating the performance in the main competition it is extremely necessary to prepare the physical, physiological, and psychological condition of an athlete before the mega- events. That is the core concept of warming up. At the end of any sporting event, it is highly recommended to maintain homeostasis by lowering the intensity and volume of the work stimulus. This is termed as cool-down in sports training. The present research article discussed various research-based scientific innovations for promoting better warming up and cool-down protocols of sports training. The means and methods of warming up and cool-down are critically discussed for the promotion of modern sports training.

Ovarian pregnancy is a rare entity among ectopic pregnancies where the ovary is the site of implantation. Its diagnosis requires a well codified approach. The particularities of the determining factors, histopathological and evolutionary characteristics of ovarian pregnancies led us to take an interest in this form of ectopic pregnancy. We report a case of ovarian pregnancy treated during our shift. It concerns a 42 year old woman, multiparous, with a notion of delay of menstruation of 3 weeks. She presented to the gynecological emergency room with acute pelvic pain complicated by shock. On examination, the diagnosis of ampullary ectopic pregnancy was made. The patient was resuscitated and underwent emergency surgery. The diagnosis of ovarian pregnancy was made intraoperatively, for which a salpingectomy was performed. The postoperative course was simple. Indeed, the diagnosis of ovarian pregnancy is difficult and is based on intraoperative findings. The presence of the ovarian nidation zone on histopathological examination is optimal to confirm the diagnosis. Treatment is based on surgery with the development of conservative techniques by laparoscopy when the patient's hemodynamic state allows it.

The wind turbine is a device that is used to harness one of the most abundant renewable energy sources on the planet: wind. It works on the concept of converting wind kinetic energy to electrical energy. Wind turbines are becoming increasingly popular in today's globe since they provide numerous environmental benefits as well as the ability to create enough power for users. A wind turbine's main functioning principle is that it creates electricity when the wind blows. The wind turbine creates more power when the wind velocity is higher. However, regardless of wind speed variations, the goal of this article is to achieve a consistent or controlled output. The goal is to have a controlled output regardless of how quickly the wind blows. This idea is made possible with the help of a converter that is installed within the wind turbine and converts whatever input it receives into a steady, constant, or controlled output. Numerous tests and simulations back up the methods used for this project. The final results that meet the design specifications are compiled and displayed in figures throughout this publication.

Staphylococcus aureus is a common hospital and community-acquired pathogen known to be frequently associated with wound infections. Therefore, the aim of the research was to determine the incidence of Staphylococcus aureus in patients with wound infection at University of Port Harcourt Teaching Hospital, Rivers State, Nigeria. A total of 150 specimens from different types of wounds (traumatic wound, caesarean section, scrotal wound, surgical wounds, burns, diabetic foot, and plastic surgery) were collected from the Hospital for a period of six months and processed for isolation of S. aureus, following standard microbiological procedures. Samples were cultured on sterile mannitol salt agar (MSA) plates and characterized phenotypically based on cultural and biochemical identities. Data obtained showed 38.7% of the wound cases were contaminated with Staphylococcus aureus isolates. It was observed that the organism mainly occurred in burns (52.63%), while the lowest incidence was related to plastic surgery (18.2%) contamination. The study showed that 10.3% of isolates were associated with biofilm formation, while gamma hemolysis and beta-hemolysis was observed in 93.1% and 6.9% of isolates, respectively. The results of this study represent serious public health concerns, thus emphasizing the need for proper wound management.

We analyse the acceleration of integrated public transportation management in DKI Jakarta. Here we focus on the case of Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) or called TransJakarta. In this study the qualitative research methods are used through post-positivism paradigm. We collect the data through observation, interviews, and literature studies. We found that the acceleration of BRT-based integrated public transportation management in DKI Jakarta can be well carried out if each stakeholder understands and implements the transportation management system that has been approved whether it is for planning, organizing, or supervising. Meanwhile, there are several components that are needed for accelerating BRT-based integrated public transportation management: route restructuring, transportation integration, single bus operators, and fair law enforcement. It is also important to realize the collaboration among Indonesian regional-own enterprises (BUMD), Indonesian state-own-enterprises (BUMN), and all stakeholders for creating sustainable and equitable bus-based public transportation in DKI Jakarta.

In this research article, Cobalt nanoparticles were green synthesized, Characterized and applied in antimicrobial study of some selected pathogens. The formation of cobalt nanoparticles was confirmed by first, its colour change from light brown to dark brown within 10 minutes. From the UV-Vis spectral analysis, it was observed that highest absorption peak appeared at 400nm reflecting the surface Plasmon resonance of Cobalt NPs from Parkia biglobosa stem which is characteristic of Cobalt Nanoparticles. From the FT-IR studies, the absorption peaks were seen at 3787.71 cm-1, 3660.31 cm-1, 3436.44 cm-1, 1638.75 cm-1, 1384.50 cm-1, 1090.80 cm-1and 798 cm-1. Investigation revealed a medium sharp peak absorption at 1090.80 cm-1which may be attributed to the stretching of aliphatic hydrocarbon (C–H). A peak at 1384.50 cm-1corresponds to C=C stretching while the absorption bands at 1638.75 cm-1and 3436.44 cm-1may be assigned to N-H and O-H stretching vibration modes respectively. Similarly, peaks were seen at 3787.71 cm-1 and 3660.31 cm-1 corresponding to O-H belonging to water and alcohol respectively. Furthermore, the very strong band at 798 cm-1emanates from C-O-C symmetric stretching and C-O-H bending vibrations of protein in the Cobalt nanoparticles. The surface morphology of the bio fabricated Cobalt nanoparticles, has revealed by SEM image, is spherical in shape having smooth surface and well dispersed with close compact arrangement. From the microbial study carried out, the surfaces of the cobalt nanoparticles might have interacted directly with the bacterial outer membrane, causing the membrane to rupture thereby killing the microbes. The antibacterial activity demonstrated by the cobalt nanoparticles in this study could be attributed to their small size and high surface to volume ratio, which therefore enables them to interact closely with bacterial membranes. From the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) study conducted, it showed clearly that the green synthesized cobalt nanoparticles inhibited the growth of the pathogens investigated.

Instructive approaches for testing emerging malaria vaccine candidates could potentially have a lot of translational value. The potential of genetically altered Plasmodium species that do not grow beyond the liver stages, in triggering a protective immunity. Giardia-lamblia, Ascaris-lumbricoides, Trichuris-trichiura, Schistosoma species and Entamoeba-histolytica are most intestinal worm parasites around worldwide. Amebiasis is caused by Entamoeba histolytica invading the intestinal mucosa and causing severe mortality and morbidity. Babesiosis is tick borne infectious disease which causes anaemia, fever, haemoglobinuria, and frailty in the animals. Various bacterial species have been found in fish’s natural habitats. Bacterial colonies can be seen on fish’s gills and skin as a result of persistent contact to unclean water, whereas polluted water or food might harm the gastrointestinal tract. Salmonella nontyphoidalis is the most common zoonotic bacterial food borne infection in humans. Salmonellae are common around the world, and they are the most common pathogenic bacteria in both humans and animals. Engineering the genes which code for pathogenicity effectors and host adaptability could be the key to completely identifying the causal relationship among a gene deficiency and infections in organoids.

Developing wound infection in type Ⅰ or Ⅱ diabetic people had risk complications like gangrene. Although there are enough antibiotic ointments or creams, still it needs physician dressing and continuous monitoring of wound. So, to make it simple and more effective, a combination of transdermal drug delivery route with herbal usage contribute in controlled release of medication with minimum undesirable side effects. And also help to treat wound infections by self-medication. This work is focused, to formulate wound healing transdermal patch for diabetics with Momordica cymbalaria tuber extract. A sequence of techniques was performed to analyse antioxidant content then Starch assay was performed In vitro to evaluate its healing efficacy, determine cytotoxicity using zebra fish embryos and artemia salina using hexane extract of tuber. Optimized combination is used to prepare Patch by solvent evaporation method then evaluated the patch by organoleptic and physico-chemical properties. The result proofs, the tuber extract had Strong Antioxidant activity whereas weak cytotoxicity showed in two concentration (25 and 50µg/ml) towards brine shrimp lethality assay and fish embryo toxicity. High migration rate found in 25µg/ml and 50µg/ml in scratch assay using Human Epidermal Keratinocytes. Evaluated the patch for its organoleptic and physico-chemical properties, it shows good result. As a final observation of the study, bio compounds present in tuber extract proved to enhance wound healing and could pave way as alternate to the synthetic wound healing patches owing to its ecofriendly, economical and herbal nature be natural replacement to hasten wound healing especially in diabetic patients.

Rasa Shastra and Bhaishajya Kalpana has evolved as a separate branch of Ayurveda, where different formulations prepared using different dravyas can be used for curing different diseases. This is called as Formulation Development. These formulations are prepared on the basis of Disease, Dose, and mainly Rasa Panchaka. While formulating different medicines, Acharyas have framed the dravyas in such a way that the end product will be having the same properties of the drug and its action which it is intended to perform. One such formulation is Hinguleshwara rasa quoted in Rasa tarangini, Vishopavishadivignyaneeya. The medicine is prepared in such a way that, half ratti i.e., 62.5mg dose is enough for curing Vataja Jwara and Ama Vata. The aim of this present article is to focus on its probable mode of action in reference to Jwara, which can be assessed on the basis of Rasa Panchaka of the drugs individually.

A nano-metallic drug called Bhasma is created from metal and minerals. It has long been regarded in Ayurveda as a trustworthy and quick-acting dose type. The following procedures—Shodhana, Bhavana, Mardana, and Marana—are used to prepare Bhasma. These processes assist in breaking down particles into their smallest components, get rid of undesirable traits, and give the substance new properties that make them more palatable to the body's tissues and organs. In the classic, various Bhasma Parikshas, such as Varitaratwa, Unnama, Rekha purnatwa, Nirutha, and Apunarbhava, are mentioned. However, these tests are insufficient to determine the safety and efficacy of Bhasma. For the examination of Bhasma, various contemporary factors are used to ensure its acceptance on a global scale like physical evaluation, chemical analysis, and instrumental analysis. Bhasma efficiency is reliant on its homogenous chemical composition, nanocrystalline structure, and biological activity. These highly sophisticated analytical tools, including XRD, SEM, TEM, NTA, ICP-MS, XRF, AAS, and FTIR, are required for the detection of crystal size, particle size, shape, surface area, dispersion state, and morphological features, in addition to chemical and physical properties like reactivity, optical behaviour, magnetism, zeta potential, and others. To understand the toxicity, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of Bhasma, all of these methods are employed. As a result, the current paper's main focus is on characterizing Bhasma using modern sophisticated instrumental techniques.
