Craniofacial morphology of 10 years rural residential school children of Suttur

Craniofacial growth is a complex and beautiful phenomenon. Growth has been described in so many terms. Todd defines growth as “increase in size”. Meredith defines growth as the entire series of anatomic and physiologic changes taking place between the beginning of prenatal life and close of senility. Growth is quantitative, i.e., it is a measurable aspect of biologic life. Objective: The present study was designed to describe the craniofacial dimensions of rural residential free school children of Suttur at 10 years. Material and Methods: In order to study the changes in Cephalometric measurements 10 Males & 10 Females of 10 years old children were selected and Lateral Cephalograms were taken. On each Lateral Cephalogram, 21 skeletal cephalometric landmarks were identified. From the cephalometric landmarks and reference lines, 31 angular and linear measurements were analyzed, which were grouped as JSS Craniofacial analysis. Results & Discussion: Mean Sagittal Measurements of 10 years old, when compared between males and females, the females showed higher values than males for the variables SNA, ANB, A-Npog, A:ss-n-pg. Mean Basal Vertical measurements of 10 years old when compared between Males and females for values of PFH, PFH/AFH, Jaw relation, Maxillary Inclination, Jaw angle, Mandibular Inclination, SN-PoOr & ANS: Gn there was no statistically significant difference between Males and Females. Mean Mandibular length measurements Go-Co and Co-Gn of 10 years old when compared between males and females, the males had higher Mean values than the females for both the parameters. The Mean cranial base measurements of 10 years old when compared between Males and females, the males had higher Mean values than the females for S:Ba, PCB & ACB, but females had higher mean values than males for n-s-ar & n-s-ba. Conclusion: Craniofacial dimensions seen in this study is very useful data on Craniofacial changes of Rural Residential School children of Suttur, but needs to be done on a larger sample.

Context-aware middleware in QRCS System

In the times of a disaster, there is a need for coordination of resources and quick response in order to minimize and rectify the damage done. Quick Response Co-ordination System (QRCS) provides a robust, mobile web application architecture to locate, allocate and track resources. It concentrates on quick communication and coordination between the disaster management team and resource handlers for better managing and mapping of resources for faster aid and rescue. A context-aware infrastructure manages the context model representing contextual information and provides appropriate information. In this paper, we introduce Context-Aware Middleware for QRCS as a context-aware infrastructure for a distributed intelligent QRCS and discuss the JSON-based context modeling and reasoning approach which will be used in the infrastructure.

Comparison of modified sleeper stretch with and without taping on glenohumeral internal rotation deficit in overhead throwers- A randomized clinical trial

As GIRD and posterior shoulder tightness is interrelated with each other and well documented in overhead athletes. Many studies have been reported to evaluate the acute effects of sleeper stretch in overhead throwers but no studies till now have been reported to evaluate the long-term effect in overhead throwers. And many studies also have shown that kinesiology tape also improving IR ROM of dominant shoulder to check the long-term effect of kinesiology tape. The present study is to compare the effect of sleeper stretch with and without Kinesio tape to improve the GIRD in overhead throwers. Methodology: 60 overhead throwers, no age limitation(male and female) were recruited from Nehru ground and Mangala stadium (Mangalore), and cricket academy in Vadodara(Gujarat) and SAI (sports authority of India) in Gandhinagar (Gujarat). 60 overhead throwers randomly divided into two groups. Group 1 (n=30) was received only sleeper stretch and group 2 (n=30) was received sleeper stretch and kinesiology tape. The modified sleeper stretch, per¬formed with the patient inside lying on the throwing side to stabilize the scapula against the table and both the shoulder and elbow flexed to 90°. In this position, passive IR is applied to the dominant arm by using the opposite hand. The immediate effects of the sleeper stretch, performed 3 times for 30 seconds, found an in¬crease IR ROM of the shoulder joint. Taping is done in sitting position. The first piece of the tape was applied from the anterior aspect of the humeral head, just lateral to the acromion process to finish at the inferior angle of the scapula. The second piece of tape commenced on the anterior aspect of the humeral head over the acromion. The opposite hand lifted the humeral head up and back during the application of the tape. Result: GIRD in overhead throwers between the group was analyzed using unpaired t-test comparison between the grips.by using the unpaired t-test. The mean diff between the 1st day to 1st week is 1.70 and t value is3.668, the mean diff between the 1st day to 2nd week is 4.56 and t value is 6.757, the mean diff between 1st day to 3rd week is 6.60 and t value is 7.51, the mean diff between 1st day to4th week is 6.96 and t value is 6.99,the mean diff between 1st week to 2nd week is 2.86 and t value is 7.05, the mean diff between 1st week to 3rd week is 4.90 and t value is 7.92,the mean diff between 1week to 4th week is 5.26 and t value is 6.69, the mean diff between 2nd week to 3rd week is 2.03 and t value is 4.92, the mean diff between 2nd week to 4th week is 2.40 and t value is 3.35, all above p<0.001means this is highly significant but the mean diff between 3rd week to 4th week is 0.367 and t value is 0.609,p<0.545 which is not highly significant. Conclusion: We concluded that the long-term effect of modified sleeper stretch showed improvement in IR ROM of the shoulder in the dominant side which is beneficial for athletes regular rehabilitation to prevent the injuries. The immediate effect of Kinesiology taping is better than long-term effect.

Effect on strength of concrete by partial replacement of natural aggregates with recycled aggregates

India is surging ahead with a renewed focus on urbanization & industrialization to maintain a sustainable growth & development. However, with the ever-increasing population, rapid urbanization & industrialization the waste generation, as a result, natural resource consumption is also rising at the equal pace. The construction industry has gained fast growth in the recent decade due to above-mentioned sectors, which is directly proportional to Increase in demand for construction materials are huge for the construction activities which results in the generation of huge amount of construction waste. The production of waste due to the demolition of the structures is 10 times more than construction waste generated. So, there is a need for management of construction and demolition waste, as it is distinct from municipal solid waste. Construction and demolition waste to be considered as high volume, high risk since lakes, open lands, dumping yards, rivers and roads are being encroached. That waste can be considered as a resource, either for reuse in its original form or recycling or energy recovery and public concerns about the environment, it is desirable to recycle materials from building demolition. Building material account for about half of the solid waste generated they have an environmental impact at every step of the building process. Despite this, most Construction and Demolition waste end up in Prodigious landfills happening in India. So, this study/survey limited to know strength of mixes in which natural aggregates are partially replaced with recycled aggregates in 0% , 20% 35% ,50% and 100%, cement and concrete consumed by Hyderabad, present methodology of handling construction and demolition waste and amount of c&d waste generated in Hyderabad.
