Objectives: Fetomaternal hemorrhage (FMH) refers to the passage of fetal blood into the maternal circulation before or during delivery. Besides the deleterious effects of anemia in the fetus, allo sensitization of the mother to red cell particularly Rh antigens may result in significant mortality/morbidity in the current fetus or in future gestations. HbF resist acid-elution to a greater extent than do normal cells and it can be detected by Kleihauer Betke method. The objective is to study the importance of Von Kleihauer Betke test and its application in identifying the red cells containing fetal hemoglobin (HbF) and to calculate its percentage of existence in mothers during labor, at Trichy SRM Medical College Hospital & Research Centre. Materials and Methods: To study the importance of Von Kleihauer Betke test and its application in assessing fetomaternal haemorrhage, intravenous blood samples were collected from all the mothers, who got admitted for labor at Trichy SRM Medical College Hospital & Research Centre during July 2017 – Sep 2017. Thin blood smears were prepared and stained by acid elusion method. The stained slides were examined for red cells containing HbF fewer than 100x oil immersion microscope by the investigators separately to reduce subjective variation. To calculate the number of red blood cells containing HbF in mother, Von Kleihauer Betke test formula has been used. Blood grouping test of the entire mother and their neonates also was done to identify the Rh typing. Von Kleihauer Betke test has been implicated to calculate the dosage of RhIG to be given in Rh negative mothers with Rh positive babies. Observation and result: Among 215 mothers involved in the study, HbF % range was observed to be within 0-2.0%. No significant percentage of fetomaternal haemorrhage exceeding 2% was observed in our study during the study period. Among the samples of 215 mothers studied, HbF range was lowest (0-0.5%) in 40% (n=88), mid-range (0.6-1.5%) in 42% (n=89) and higher range (1.6-2%) in 17% (n=38) only.

Reading is an important part of language learning. We can detect the vocabulary and grammar abilities of English learners through reading, cultivate their senses of English language, and deepen their understandings of English readings. When students learn English at college, they need to memorize 4000-6000 words. In addition to memorizing words in daily life, reading is one of the important ways to improve students' vocabularies. However, most college students do not really understand the main purpose of an article. In view of the current status of English reading, foreign journal intensive reading apps have created convenient conditions for students to learn English anytime and anywhere, so that students can choose their own learning content and adopt multiple forms of listening, speaking, reading and writing. Learning methods are mainly divided into two types, learning through audio materials in the apps and self-reading. This article explores the two different methods hoping for a little contribution to their English learning.

Forest conservation is the practice of planting and maintaining forested areas for the benefit and sustainability of future generations. Forest conservation involves the upkeep of the natural resources within a forest that are beneficial to both humans and the environment. This paper attempts an insightful look at the contributions of forest conservation in Ngongbaa on agricultural land use change and how it affects crop production and subsequently the population. This approach considers forest as an important asset to the entire rural community and forest conservation as an obstacle to their development. The methodology used consisted of data collection through interviews, questionnaire administration, participant observation and on-the-spot appraisal. The findings revealed that forest conservation is hindering crop production which directly affects the provision of basic needs like food, clothing and home heating. There is the need for creating an enabling environment which will assist indigenes without making them become miserable such as; encouraging indigenes to carryout apicultural activities in and out of the forest, promote and encourage farmers to carry out agroforestry activities, as well as encouraging indigenes through financial aid to carry out small and medium size trade. This will help to boost their income and diversify their rural activities.

Taiwan's medical system has the function of connecting the whole Taiwan on the construction, so doctors can observe and seek medical treatment immediately. Such a process can be helpful for real-time information of patients. The main concern behind this system is that hackers may leak patients' personal information, leading to patients' personal privacy rights. In the case of COVID-19 in 2020, Taiwan began to introduce a medical tracking system, which includes the patient's medical records and data uploaded to the health insurance system database; so that doctors can visit the patient's medical records related to the patient's medical treatment and the relevant prescription records. Is this a good system for patient rights? Is there a problem with the patient's right to privacy? Our study found a positive correlation between health system privacy, information sharing, physician prescribing decisions, and consumer satisfaction. The number of samples investigated in this paper was N=270, and the main responses were 253, with a recovery rate of 97%.

Metal ion contamination in the environment causes hazardous effects on plant growth, yield production, and also led to physical and chemical changes. Sunflower(Helianthus annus L.) plant is added to be one of the most edible seed crop growing in harsh climatic regions.it also have good water use efficiency. The study remains unclear about the physiological growth of sunflower with treatment of Zinc. A pot experiment was conducted in the old Botanical Garden at University of Agriculture, Faisalabad to analyze and check the impact of heavy metal zinc sulphat stress on sunflower (Heliantuus annuus) two hybrids FH687 and FH674. After three weeks varying concentration of zinc sulphate (0mM, 20mM and 40mM) along with 250ml tap water was applied in rooting medium. Every day 250ml water were applied to each pots .The crop was harvested after 45 days and morphological parameters were studied such as root length, shoot length, root weight, shoot weight and number of leaves. Zn stress significantly reduced the growth attributes. A marked drop in all morphophysiological attributes such as root length, leaf number and shoot length was recorded. Maximum reduction of growth, biochemical and physiological parameters was noted at 40mM concentration of zinc. Zinc toxicity involve in inhibition of cytoplasmic enzymes and damage to cell structures due to oxidative stress.it alter the catalytic function of enzymes which damage the cellular membranes and inhibit root growth. Zinc stress cause maximum effect on hybrid FH674 as compared to other hybrid FH687.

General and hand hygienic practices are cost-effective methods to prevent the transmission of nosocomial infections. Hand hygiene practices are faulty in most healthcare settings. This study is designed to assess the general and hand hygiene practices among medical and nursing students of the University of Hail in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. This is a cross-sectional study conducted among medical and nursing students. A detailed questionnaire was prepared and piloted before the final interview. The participation of students was voluntary and the questionnaires were kept anonymous. The majority of the medical and nursing students, who participated in this study, were males (88%), with 94% in the college of medicine and 82% in the college of nursing. The majority of both medical and nursing students had good hygienic and good hand washing practices. Hand washing practices were almost similar (p>0.05) in both male and female students. This study showed a higher percentage of general and handwashing hygienic practices among medical and nursing students. However, multifaceted and dedicated efforts must be undertaken to rectify this practice from early on.
