1. A sociological study on changing family structure in Baramullah Kashmir

Globalization as a process is the outcome of various factors like technological, educational, economic, political and socio-cultural etc. It is a process of conversion of local or provincial things into global ones. With modern ways of life, our traditional values and norms lose their importance and new ideas, values and practices were added to society. Almost every institution in our social structure is affected by modernization and its agents. Change in the organ of society results in changing other institutions as well. Family as a fundamental unit witnessed dramatic changes over a period of time. The change in the rural settlement resulted in the change of the joint family system in our country. Family structure, size, the authority has been changing due to the impact of liberalization, privatization, and globalization in the entire world. In our country, the majority population still resides in the countryside but the family system has changed both in urban as well as rural areas of the country. The present paper will highlight the major alterations in the family system in Kashmir.

2. Terrorism and role of the United Nations

The purpose of this paper is to lay emphasis on the remarkable role of the United Nations in combating the global issue of terrorism. The United Nations Charter, 1945 aims to maintain international peace and security. To achieve this tremendous goal, the United Nations along with the peaceful partnership of Member States needs to address the alarming issue of terrorism. This work significantly takes into considerations the various attempts of the United Nations to combat terrorism. This includes the legal instruments to prevent terrorist acts, various resolutions passed by the United Nations Security Council and the United Nations General Assembly, UN Global Counter-Terrorism Strategy and Counter-Terrorism Implementation Task Force. The four pillars included in the UN Global Counter-Terrorism Strategy have been dealt with in detail. Counter-Terrorism Implementation Task Force and its thematic Working Groups work for implementation of the Counter-Terrorism Strategy. These attempts by the United Nations are fruitful in knitting all nations together. In report A/71/858, released in 2017, the Secretary-General, António Guterres explores the outstanding role of the United Nations. The United Nations’ approach to addressing terrorism is very thorough and noteworthy. But, there is an urgent need for a comprehensive Convention to develop to clearly give a clear pathway to fight against terrorism. Terrorism, is an international problem cannot be solely solved by the United Nations. For this, all nations need to come together and develop strong judicial machinery. They should join hands with the United Nations system to support education, equality, human rights, and awareness.

3. A recent case reports on unfamiliar Kikuchi-Fujimoto disease

Kikuchi-Fujimoto Disease (KFD) also known by a name called Histiocytic Necrotizing Lymphadenitis. It is very rare, non-cancerous and self-limiting Auto-Immune disease but most suspected as to be cancer, tuberculosis and systemic lupus erythematosus. It has symptoms such as cervical lymphadenopathy (enlargement of lymph nodes), low fever, headache, fatigue, night sweats, and muscles pain. It typically affects young females aged between 20-35 years and it mostly affects Asian populations. The correct identification of KFD is characterized by Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology by taking a blood sample from the swollen lymph node. Diagnosis is also possible with Fine Needle Aspiration Biopsy. Treatment for this disease has not been established. Non-steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs or steroids are in use to ease tenderness of lymph node and fever.

4. An effective approach of semantic analysis to natural language translation system (English-Myanmar language)

English is one of the most widely spoken languages in the world these days. Most of the commercial websites are also being designed in English language. So, we need a language translation system to understand all websites and all information from the internet. This paper is one part of the English-Myanmar Machine Translation system. In our system, tagged English text is accepted as input. Firstly, these tags are tokenized. Each phrase is tokenized. The structure is basically a list of tokens. The linguistics clues are normalized. And then dictionary look up is performed. The guessing process is applied. Since the files are sorted according to alphabetically, required information can be searched quickly with a binary search. The dictionary-based translation technique produces one or more translation terms in the target language for each term in the source language. We propose a method called word sense disambiguation to solve the ambiguity of words. By using this technique and bilingual lexicon, the system may retrieve correct translated words.

6. Observation on vascular malformation in respect of sclerotherapy as a treatment of choice

Vascular malformations are a vast group of congenital malformations that are present at birth and can affect any type of vessels like artery, vein, and lymphatics. These malformations can cause pain, pressure, and cosmetic annoyance as well as downturn growth and development in a child in the case of high flow. Sclerotherapy has become an important tool in the treatment of vascular malformations. However, little is known about the success rate of sclerotherapy. In this study, the efficiency of sclerotherapy in the treatment of vascular anomalies was investigated retrospectively in 36 patients treated at Patna Medical College and Hospital, Patna between May 2017 to December 2018. Results: Out of the 36 patients investigated, 94% (34) had Venous Malformations (VMs) and 6% (2) were defined as having arteriovenous malformations (AVMs). Out of all VMs cases 2(6%) VMs patients were operated. Hence 88% (32) of patients with a VMs received significant relief solely from sclerotherapy. The duration of treatment for the 6 % of the VM patients that needed a surgical procedure was prolonged by 5-7months. Sclerotherapy is an effective treatment modality for VMs with a satisfactory clinical response in 88% of cases.

9. Effectiveness of Helfer skin tap technique on pain reduction during intramuscular injection among infants

Pain is a major source of distress for children and their families as well as health care providers. Skin tapping (Helfer skin tap technique) is one of the methods which keeps the muscles relaxed and thus reduce pain while administering IM injection. The objectives of the study are to assess the pain level among infants during intramuscular injection both control and experimental group. To find out the effectiveness of Helfer skin tap technique in the experimental group and to associate the pain score with demographic variables. Methods Quasi-experimental design used in this study Comprised of 60 infants selected by purposive sampling technique, 30 in experimental & 30 in the control group came in Immunization clinic in IGMC & hospital, Shimla. HSTT used in experimental group & routine technique in the control group. The pain was assessed by the FLACC pain scale. Results: The result revealed that 66.7 % of the infants in the experimental group had mild pain, only 23.3% perceived moderate and no any one perceive severe pain during IM injection by using Helfer skin tap technique. 40 % of the infants in the control group had severe pain, 46.7% perceived moderate pain, only 13.3% perceived mild pain during IM injection by using a routine technique. The present study findings supported that there is a significant difference in pain score in the IM administration with Helfer skin tap technique. The conclusion of the study proved that Helfer Skin Tap Technique was effective than the Routine Technique in administering IM Injections. It was concluded that the perception of pain intensity is less when intra muscular injection is administered by using Helfer Skin Tap Technique. It works on a theoretical basis such as gate control theory.

10. Study on water table contour map and hydrological study on Erode using GIS

Water table contour lines (or flow lines) are similar to topographic lines on a map. They essentially represent "elevations" in the subsurface. These elevations are known as the hydraulic head. Water table contour lines can be used to tell which way groundwater will flow in a given region. Lots of wells are drilled and the hydraulic head is measured in each one. Water table contours are drawn that join areas of the equal head. These water table contours lines are also called equipotential lines. The map of contour lines is called a flow net. Groundwater always moves from an area of the higher hydraulic head to an area of the lower hydraulic head, and perpendicular to equipotential lines. In our project, we implement the concept of water table contour map and hydrological studies on Erode district using GIS software which plays a vital role in the latest technology.

11. Study of carbon capture and sequestration techniques-modelling

Carbon dioxide is the primary anthropogenic greenhouse gas. India’s CO2 emissions are expected to extend 70% by 2025. Geologic carbon storage (GCS) offers a way to reduce CO2 emission. Global climate change results in an urgent need for countries governments to reduce their carbon footprints by adopting sustainable development methods. To mitigate this devastating effect of global warming, the CO2 is captured from industrial utility and compressed either in supercritical form or sub-cooled liquid form for underground storage. We have adopted an air contactor design model with some modifications. Air capture plant is fabricated using heat resistance glass. Based on the experimental studies, chemical solutions are used to capture the CO2. The basic reaction of these solutions with the CO2 present in the air is discussed in our study. The reaction of hydrated oxide with air captures the CO2 as carbonate resolution by scouring techniques. Then the combined reaction of hydrated oxide and slaked lime leaves precipitates of carbonate. NaOH is redirected to air-contactor for any production of carbonate resolution. The comparative efficiency of Carbon dioxide capture will be analyzed using primarily based chemicals like sodium hydroxide (NaOH), calcium hydroxide (CaoH2).

13. Creating agricultural climatic condition

Nowadays food production is a major concern. The prices of off-season vegetables & fruits are increasing day by day just because of storage & poor production due to which quality also degrades. This project comes with an idea of the production of vegetation during the off-season. We are offering all the required factors for proper agriculture even in the off-season. It will be a revolution in agriculture which can serve the increasing population with quality assurance at cheaper rates. As it is very clear from the title i.e. “CREATING AGRICULTURAL CLIMATIC CONDITION”, we are dealing with the climatic condition which is not favorable for the desired crop. Such an environment will be created which helps the crop to grow naturally even in the off-season. Mainly work has been done on three factors, those are moisture content in the soil, temperature & light. The whole setup is fully automated which is useful as well as eco-friendly.

14. Going an extra mile for a perfect aesthetic smile – A case report

Traumatic injuries to the anterior tooth are the most common finding in the day to day practice with the incidence of complicated crown fractures ranging from 2% to 13% of all dental injuries. The most commonly involved tooth is maxillary central incisor leading to damage of the crowns. Different treatment approaches are indicated for the management of fractured teeth, depending on their location. More difficulties are always faced when the fracture line extends below the bone level, orthodontic extrusion or surgical extrusion remains as a treatment option. Though orthodontic extrusion is an ideal approach, sometimes due to limitations of time or unavailability of the patient for a longer period of time, we have to opt for the surgical extrusion. So here is the case with traumatic anterior tooth managed with surgical extrusion.

15. Effective performance of hidden Markov model for epidemiologic surveillance

The public health surveillance system is one of the most important for the detection of the seasonal influenza epidemic. We introduced different kinds of surveillance data for early detection of a disease outbreak. Hidden Markov model has been recognized as an appropriate method to model disease surveillance data. In this work, we proposed a hidden Markov model (HMM) to characterize epidemic and non-epidemic dynamic in a time series of influenza-like illness incidence rates and presents a method of influenza detection in an epidemic. ILI is defined as an illness marked by the presence of a fever ( 100.5℉ or greater ) and either a cough or sore throat within 72 hours of ILI symptom onset, or physician-diagnosed ILI. ILI incidence rate is based on surveillance data and activity state. HMMs have been used in many areas, including automatic speech recognition, electrocardiographic signal analysis, the modeling of neuron firing and meteorology. A two-state HMM is applied on incidence time series assuming that those observations are generated from a mixture of Gaussian distribution. Bayesian inference method is calculated to obtain the probability of an epidemic state and non-epidemic state every week. The various influenza dataset applied the methodology.

17. Impact of educational debt on students and their career choices

Nearly all the developed and developing economies worldwide are experiencing an all-time in educationally related debts. College debt is taken for undergraduate and postgraduate courses. The problem at hand was the impact of the educational debt of a graduate on his/her career options. There existed a gap between why and should students be forced to work halfway through education to repay the debt acquired for the previous course. As per the analysis students scoring 75%-90% marks in school as it is believed that students who score exceptionally well get scholarships as to attract them to a particular university, thus reducing the need to finance a college education. Three types of courses were considered under the boundary of research that are management courses, technical/engineering courses, Medical/doctorate courses This is a big problem in America, 44 million American students hold nearly $1.5 trillion education debt that amounts to $37157 per student while on the contrary a total of Rs. 48416 Crore is what Indian students hold over a spread of 2481000 accounts and do this ever increasing figure the repayments are also getting affected

18. Implementation of fuzzy and PID Controller to water level system using LabVIEW

The paper is about the water level control system which is required in many industrial processes like water treatment plant, the idea of the process is to keep the tank water level at the desired set point. First, we implemented the conventional Proportional – Integral Derivative (PID) controller to eliminate the steady state error, then it was used Fuzzy logic controllers which gives more performance and stability. It is noted from the results that the Fuzzy Logic controller is more enhanced than PID controller in which its no overshoot, faster settling time, better-set point tracking and produced lower performances like Integral of Time and Absolute Error (ITAE) integral of Time and Squared Error (ITSE), and Integral Absolute Error (IAE), Integral Squared Error (ISE). Both PID and fuzzy controller are implemented using LabView software
