The incidence of oral squamous cell carcinoma remains high in India due to the social and cultural habit of tobacco, it accounts for about 5%of total cancer of the body. Despite evolution in management,the overall survival of patients has not been improved significantly during the past 20 years. Several clinicopathological parameters have been implicated in the prognosis, recurrence and survival, following oral cancer. This retrospective study aims at the study of clinicopathological parameters including regional lymph nodes and distant metastasis and its correlation with recurrence and death rates in patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma. In this retrospective study data collected from the registry of cancer ward, Victoria hospital and Government dental college, Bangalore from 2007-2014(8 years) in total, 283 patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma were included. The clinical staging and histopathological reports were analysed and chest X ray, MRI was used to assess the distant metastasis and these findings were correlated with recurrence and death rates of the patients.Statistical analysis was carried out using chi square test. Among 283 patients 159 were males (56.2%) and 124 were females (43.8%). Most of the identified squamous cell carcinomas were T4 (42%) and N2 (40.6%). Recurrence was identified in 40 patients, 85(30%) had regional nodal metastasis and 9 had distant metastasis, and 40 patients died out of 283.Squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity has a poor overall prognosis with a high tendency to recur at the primary site and extend to involve the cervical lymph nodes.

Shipbuilding was once a flourishing trade along the coast of Bengal 400 years ago. Countries flocked to her shipyards to get the best wooden commercial and military ships available at the time. However, with the advent of the industrial revolution, the shipbuilders of Bengal lagged behind in the fabrication of the primary new construction material that was sweeping the world, namely steel. As a result of this lack of skill, Bengal rapidly lost her position amongst the great shipbuilders in the world. Today, Bangladesh has resumed the process of inheriting that lost heritage of shipbuilding. Being a young shipbuilding country of only 2 decades, Bangladesh has already started making ripples in the international shipbuilding market by fetching handsome orders from as far away as Europe and Africa. The prospects for future growth, based on industry analysis of the key forecasting variables, can only be labelled as positive. However, a lack of skilled shipbuilding personnel is hindering Bangladesh‟s chances in the global industry. This policy paper has presented numerous recommendations spanning the provision of „specialised training to foster the development of local human resource‟ to „recruitment of foreign skilled personnel‟ as means for supplying the local demand for skills. Additionally, joint industry action in areas such as training centres, university course development and labour supply forecasting has been promoted.

Medical devices can be categorized into two categories which is invasive and non-invasive method. Invasive method needs medical device to be inserted into patient body regarding to check or do the treatment on the patients. However, the non-invasive method is a way to check the health condition from the outside of the body. A common non-invasive medical device is Heart rate monitor. The function of the Heart rate monitor is determining heart rate (i.e.) beats per minute. The main aim of this work is to develop a portable device which helps to record heart rate of a person. The heart rate also referred as pulse rate, has been recognized as a vital parameter since beginning of medicine, and is directly related to person’s cardiovascular health. Heart rate or pulse recording is the most important vital parameter which helps the individual as well as doctor to spot out developing health problems. Using Heart Rate Monitor (HRM) is a more accurate way to monitor heart rate than manually taking your pulse at carotid of radial pulse. A HRM detects the electronic signal of heart and automatically computes the heart rate in BPM. Infrared light emitting diode (LED) is used to transmit the light and phototransistor works as a receiver. The Infrared (IR) sensors used uses the principle reflectance plethysmography (PPG) to sense the pulse signal from finger tip. The sensor output is read from the Arduino board, computes the BPM and display the instantaneous heart rate on LCD display module. Based on the above principle, a portable heart rate device using Arduino microcontroller is developed.

In the present work, two simple and sensitive UV spectrophotometric methods have been developed for the quantitative estimation of Metformin Hydrochloride and Benfotiamine in combination using bulk and pharmaceutical dosage forms. Method A is Simultaneous equation method which involves measurement of absorbance at selected wavelength and solving the simultaneous equation to calculate the amount of drug present. Distilled water was used as the solvent for the analysis of both drugs. Two wavelengths 230 and 246 nm were selected for the estimation of Metformin Hydrochloride and Benfotiamine. LOD for Metformin Hydrochloride and Benfotiamine were found to be 0.03µg/ml and 0.27µg/ml respectively. Method validation was done as per ICH guidelines. Method B is Absorbance ratio method which involves, formation of Q-Absorbance equation at 239 nm (isoabsorptive point) and 246 nm (λmax of Benfotiamine) in distilled water. The Linearity lies between 2-16 µg/ml for Metformin Hydrochloride and 2-18 µg/ml for Benfotiamine with r2=0.999 and 0.998 respectively. LOD for both drugs were found to be 0.16 µg/ml and 0.3 µg/ml respectively. Method validation was done as per ICH guidelines

Hearing plays a key role in learning to talk. Early screening of newborns for hearing impairment is essential as treatment is most successful when identified early. The study assessed the challenges associated with screening and early detection of hearing impairment among children in the Kumasi metropolis and focused on the services available for screening of hearing impairment among children and the effects of the challenges of screening and early detection of hearing impairment. The study employed a qualitative approach. Purposive and convenience sampling were used to select 15 participants. An interview guide was adopted to capture the responses of participants on voice recorder. Thematic content analysis was used to analyse themes generated from the data according to the objectives. The study found that, hearing screening services for children included OAEs, pure tone testing, behavioral assessment and school outreach programs but health personnel are faced with challenges in undertaking these services. Challenges such as lack of enough funds, insufficient tools and equipment, few numbers of health personnel and low patronage of hearing screening services limited health personnel’s ability to provide effective hearing screening services to children. The study therefore recommends that the ministry of health constructs audiology units in every region in Ghana and supply the units with the tools and equipment needed for work. The study further recommends that, the ministry of health in collaboration with ministry of education should assist in training more audiologists and make school screening programs a long term national policy.

Single Cell Protein (SCP) can be obtained from various microorganisms by growing them on a number of types of substrates, including industrial products waste. This work focuses on non-conventional yeast Yarrowia lipolytica, and its application in the process of production of valuable components like SCP and amino acids. It also analyses the possibility of using obtained biomass as a dietary supplement for humans. Y. lipolytica is nonpathogenic to humans and has been approved for use in several industrial processes as it is generally recognized as safe (GRAS). The results of our analyses suggest that the Y. lipolytica A-101 – a strain growing in biofuel production waste is a good candidate for a source of high-quality yeast protein (40-50% of dried biomass) and exogenous amino acids (phenylalanine 3.9 g, isoleucine 4.4 g, leucine 6.8 g, lysine 7.0 g, methionine 1.2 g, threonine 4.8 g, tryptophan 4.7 g, valine 5.3 g/100 g of protein). Y. lipolytica A-101 biomass has also very low nucleic acids concentration (below 1%) due to activation of endogenous nucleases in the final stage of the stationary phase. These enzymes reduce the amount of nucleic acids in this biomass from a high level to one acceptable for human consumption. Moreover, Y. lipolytica A-101 biomass is safe and digestible since the yeast cells get killed in the drying process and has no leavening powder with destroyed cell wall. Y. lipolytica A-101 can be used as a nutritional supplement in human diet when an increased intake of amino-acids and SCP is required.
