“Knowledge About Tuberculosis And Its Treatment Among Nursing Students At Selected Colleges, Kanpur U.P.”

Nurses play an important role in health sector. Tuberculosis is an infectious disease and spread from person to person via droplets, in order to prevent and control Tuberculosis, community participation is needed on priority basis. Health workers create awareness among people and motivate them to participate in national health programs run by government for prevention and control of various communicable, non-communicable diseases, welfare programs etc. TB control strategies will be successful when health workers will be well known about this disease, Direct Observation Therapy and administration of anti-tuberculosis medications, its side effects etc. The purpose of this study was to assess knowledge of nursing students about Tuberculosis and its treatment at selected colleges, UP. It was a descriptive cross-sectional study 160 nursing students were involved in this study. Data were collected through questionnaires, which include demographics variables and knowledge based questionnaires with yes–no options related to TB and its treatmen

Haemostasis in Open Carpal Tunnel Release: Tourniquet vs Local Anaesthetic and Adrenaline

Open carpal tunnel release is one of the commonest performed procedures in hand surgery. We performed a prospective randomised control trial to compare the efficacy and patient satisfaction of the traditional arm tourniquet versus infiltration of adrenaline and local anaesthetic solution to achieve haemostasis during the procedure. Using a combination of objective and subjective measures we concluded that infiltration of local anaesthetic and adrenaline not only provided adequate haemostasis but also provided a significantly more tolerable experience for the patient during the procedure

SARS-CoV-2 B.1.617.2 Delta variant replication and immune evasion

The B.1.617.2 (Delta) variant of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) was first identified in the state of Maharashtra in late 2020 and spread throughout India, outcompeting pre-existing lineages including B.1.617.1 (Kappa) and B.1.1.7 (Alpha)1. In vitro, B.1.617.2 is sixfold less sensitive to serum neutralizing antibodies from recovered individuals, and eightfold less sensitive to vaccine-elicited antibodies, compared with wild-type Wuhan-1 bearing D614G. Serum neutralizing titres against B.1.617.2 were lower in ChAdOx1 vaccinees than in BNT162b2 vaccinees. B.1.617.2 spike pseudotyped viruses exhibited compromised sensitivity to monoclonal antibodies to the receptor-binding domain and the amino-terminal domain. B.1.617.2 demonstrated higher replication efficiency than B.1.1.7 in both airway organoid and human airway epithelial systems, associated with B.1.617.2 spike being in a predominantly cleaved state compared with B.1.1.7 spike. The B.1.617.2 spike protein was able to mediate highly efficient syncytium formation that was less sensitive to inhibition by neutralizing antibody, compared with that of wild-type spike. We also observed that B.1.617.2 had higher replication and spike-mediated entry than B.1.617.1, potentially explaining the B.1.617.2 dominance. In an analysis of more than 130 SARS-CoV-2-infected health care workers across three centres in India during a period of mixed lineage circulation, we observed reduced ChAdOx1 vaccine effectiveness against B.1.617.2 relative to non-B.1.617.2, with the caveat of possible residual confounding. Compromised vaccine efficacy against the highly fit and immune-evasive B.1.617.2 Delta variant warrants continued infection control measures in the post-vaccination era

Project Tracking and Management System

Project Tracking and Management System is a software package to monitor the progress and status of projects undertaken by an organization. The package provides information on projects which include Management (Customer and General), Financial and Technical details. It also facilitates generation of textual and graphical reports as well. It is an intranet application that can be accessed from any desktop system

Computer Graphics

Computer Graphics is a multidisciplinary field that focuses on the generation, manipulation, and representation of visual images and animations using computers. It combines principles from mathematics, physics, and computer science to create visual content for applications in entertainment, design, simulation, education, and scientific visualization. The field encompasses a wide range of techniques, from rendering 2D and 3D images to modeling, texture mapping, and animation. Additionally, the paper highlights the role of computer graphics in various applications, from video games and movies to virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), and medical imaging. Emphasis is placed on the importance of graphics hardware, such as Graphics Processing Units (GPUs), and how advancements in hardware enable more complex and realistic visual experiences. In conclusion, computer graphics is a constantly evolving field with wide-reaching applications. It is a crucial component of modern media, technology, and scientific research, and continues to push the boundaries of how we create and interact with visual information.Publishe
