Clinical and radiological recurrence after childhood arterial ischemic stroke
Background: Data on rates and risk factors for clinical and radiological recurrence of childhood arterial ischemic stroke (AIS) might inform secondary prevention strategies.
Methods and Results: Consecutive Great Ormond Street Hospital patients with first AIS were identified retrospectively (1978–1990) and prospectively (1990–2000). Patients underwent repeat neuroimaging at the time of clinical recurrence or, if asymptomatic, at least 1 year after AIS. Cox and logistic regression analyses were used to explore the relationships between risk factors and clinical and radiological recurrence, respectively. A total of 212 patients were identified, of whom 97 had another prior diagnosis. Seventy-nine children had a clinical recurrence (29 strokes, 46 transient ischemic attacks [TIAs], 4 deaths with reinfarction 1 day to 11.5 years (median 267 days) later); after 5 years, 59% (95% confidence interval, 51% to 67%) were recurrence free. Moyamoya on angiography and low birth weight were independently associated with clinical recurrence in the whole group. Genetic thrombophilia was associated with clinical recurrence in previously healthy patients, independent of the presence of moyamoya. Sixty of 179 patients who had repeat neuroimaging had radiological reinfarction, which was clinically silent in 20. Previous TIA, bilateral infarction, prior diagnosis (specifically immunodeficiency), and leukocytosis were independently associated with reinfarction. Previous TIA and leukocytosis were also independently associated with clinically silent reinfarction.
Conclusions: Clinical and radiological recurrence are common after childhood AIS. The risk of clinical recurrence is increased in children with moyamoya and, in previously healthy patients, in those with genetic thrombophilia. Preexisting pathology, including immunodeficiency, and persistent leukocytosis are risk factors for radiological recurrence, which suggests a potential role for chronic infection
Female Language in Poet Uma Maheshwari’s Poems
In this article, we can learn about the female language style in the poems of poet Uma Maheshwari. The thought of style cannot go beyond grammar, and it is felt that knowledge of style is necessary to belied and absorb modern poetry. The poet, who was so high as to receive the Katha award for the poems written and preserved in the note, could identify the life forms and quest for knowledge he had encountered. His life and reading also understood how the content of poetry and techniques changed. The poet's poems show what is the need for the elements of the exposition to bring down his consciousness in the word poem, and how the reading of poetry unfolds by identifying them. The existence of the word in poetry and how poets exert creativity on that word can be understood. It is felt that in modern poetry too, tradition is interwoven, belie the claim that our traditional grammar has weakened since the development of linguistics. At the same time, it was possible to review the society in the word and the patriarchy hidden in it with modern thinking. Uma Maheshwari's poems also show how female consciousness can be constructed with female central words in such words
Social Status in Proverb Four Hundred
A writer of literature with his profound versatility can create imaginary beings and through them he can reveal the society and culture of his time. By showing so. From the literature created by him, we are able to know about the life of the author, the environment and the cultural norms of the society
Quantm Magnetoresistance of the PrFeAsO oxypnictides
We report the observation of an unusual dependence of transverse
magnetoresistance (MR) in the PrFeAsO, one of the parent compound of pnictide
superconductors. Below the spin density wave transition, MR is large, positive
and increases with decreasing temperature. At low temperatures, MR increases
linearly with up to 14 T. For 40 K, MR vs curve develops a
weak curvature in the low-field region which indicates a crossover from
linear to dependence as 0. The linear MR originates
from the Dirac cone states and has been explained by the quantum mechanical
model proposed by Abrikosov.Comment: accepted for publication in Appl. Phys. Let
Development of Android Based Real Time Monitoring System for Fire-fighters
Fire-fighters are trained rescuers especially in extinguishing hazardous fires and saving lives from dangerous situations however they tend to put their lives at risk while on the job. Statistic shows the number of deaths of fire-fighters while on the job are still high up to this year and a higher percentage of rapid fire progress and exertion are dedicated to the cause of death of fire-fighters while on the job. Therefore, a real-time monitoring on the physiological state for fire-fighters is something crucial to be done. However, the Fire and Rescue Department of Malaysia practices the traditional communication method which is by communicating via walkie-talkie. The practice of real-time assessment should be carried out by Fire and Rescue Department of Malaysia in order to avoid having a fire-fighter’s live at risk. This could be achieved by using the ARMOR (Android Based Real Time Monitoring System) whereby it can transmit voice data and physiological data such as heart rate, respirator rate, peak acceleration and posture. Based on the research and critical analysis, an android platform have been found to be a suitable selection as it supports Bluetooth Wi-Fi and Radio Frequency, accessible from any android devices and it is user friendly. As a result, a real-time intelligent monitoring system was successfully developed on an android platform. The physiological data for heart rate, respiration rate, posture, and peak acceleration was successfully transmitted and monitored on an android device at real-time
Azhvarkal Kanda Manudam
World natural history is based on anthropology. Man grows little by little and becomes civilized and sets his course of life. He lives based on the elements of that life. He needs the truth of the best scholars to shine in that life. There are many ideas that Alvars have taken for human development to fulfill that need. The purpose of this study is to examine the pride and culture of non-caste life, instability of life, admiration, racial unity, hospitality, love, and chastity
Predicting Malicious Node Behavior in Wireless Network Using DSR Protocol and Network Metrics
This paper describes a set of network metrics are helpful to predict behavior of malicious node in wireless network. The Network and internet is the device in which multiple people can communicate with each other through the wired or wireless media. Nowadays, Internet of Things, Mobile, vehicular, and wireless ad hoc networks all merge into one shared network. These networks are often used to send receive confidential data and information. The unauthorized or malicious node misuse these secrete information. With a rise in rogue nodes, network performance will suffer. A rogue node in the network can cause variations in network metrics including the packet dropping percentage, throughput, latency, energy consumption, and average queue duration. This behavior used to identify the malicious node
