A study of growth of private hospital
There were so many private hospitals, charitable hospitals, government hospitals are working in India as well as other countries. Amazing facilities, best services are offered to the patients. But patient’s demand is also increasing day by day and also it is reasonable. This research paper tries to focus on the expectations of the patient in nowadays. From this research paper hospitals must want to pay full attention on the demands and expectations of the patients and hospitals should try to fulfill all demands of the patient
A study to assess the effect of pomegranate skin decoction on diarrhoea and dehydration among children in selected hospital, alappuzha, kerala
A study to assess the effect of pomegranate skin decoction on diarrhoea among children in selected Hospital, Alappuzha, Kerala was under taken by 30083612 as a partial
fulfillment of the requirement for the Degree of Master of Science in nursing at Annai JKK Sampoorani Ammal College of nursing, under the Tamilnadu Dr.MGR Medical University
during the year 2008-2010.
The objectives of the study were; to assess diarrhoea and dehydration before and after administration of pomegranate skin decoction in experimental group, to compare mean
difference in diarrhoea and dehydration among children in experimental and control group, to find the association between mean difference in diarrhoea, dehydration and selected factors among children in experimental group.
The research hypothesis formulated were ; H1-There will be a significant difference in diarrhoea before and after administration of pomegranate skin decoction in experimental group, H2- There will be a significant difference in dehydration before and after administration of pomegranate skin decoction in experimental group, H3- There will be a significant difference in the mean difference in diarrhoea among children in experimental and control group, H4- There
will be a significant difference in the mean difference in dehydration among children in experimental and control group, H5- There will be a significant association between the mean difference in diarrhoea and selected factors among children in experimental group, H6- There will be a significant association between the mean difference in dehydration and selected factors among children in experimental group.
The investigator organized the review of literature under four section as follows, Studies related to diarrhoea, dehydration and management, Studies related to effect of
pomegranate and Studies related to effect of pomegranate on diarrhoea and dehydration.
The conceptual framework for this study was based on Nursing Process model developed by ANA (1991). The research design used was a quasi experimental design. Study was conducted among 40 children, 20 in experimental group and 20 in control group admitted with moderate diarrhoea and dehydration who were selected by purposive sampling technique in CBM Homeo Hospital, Alappuzha.
The tool developed and used for data collection was an Interview\Observation schedule .Reliability was established by interrater reliability. Pilot study was conducted among
8 children with moderate diarrhoea and dehydration in CBM Homeo Hospital, Alappuzha.
Main study was conducted in CBM Homeo Hospital, Alappuzha. Preparation of pomegranate skin decoction was explained to experimental group. Data obtained were edited, organized, analyzed by using SPSS (version 10) and interpreted by descriptive and inferential statistics. The findings revealed the effectiveness of pomegranate skin decoction.
The findings of the study showed that there was a significant (p<0.05) reduction in diarrhoea and dehydration after pomegranate skin decoction administration among children in experimental group. There was no significant association between mean difference in diarrhoea, dehydration and selected factors among children in experimental group. The conclusion of the study was that pomegranate skin decoction was an effective technique for
reducing diarrhoea and dehydration among children.
The limitations, implications and recommendations were adequately spelt
Mouse Apolipoprotein B Editing Complex 3 (APOBEC3) Is Expressed in Germ Cells and Interacts with Dead-End (DND1)
encoded protein, DND1, is able to bind to the 3′-untranslated region (UTR) of messenger RNAs (mRNAs) to displace micro-RNA (miRNA) interaction with mRNA. Thus, one function of DND1 is to prevent miRNA mediated repression of mRNA. We report that DND1 interacts specifically with APOBEC3. APOBEC3 is a multi-functional protein. It inhibits retroviral replication. In addition, recent studies show that APOBEC3 interacts with cellular RNA-binding proteins and to mRNA to inhibit miRNA-mediated repression of mRNA.Here we show that DND1 specifically interacts with another cellular protein, APOBEC3. We present our data which shows that DND1 co-immunoprecipitates APOBEC3 from mammalian cells and also endogenous APOBEC3 from mouse gonads. Whether the two proteins interact directly remains to be elucidated. We show that both DND1 and APOBEC3 are expressed in germ cells and in the early gonads of mouse embryo. Expression of fluorescently-tagged DND1 and APOBEC3 indicate they localize to the cytoplasm and when DND1 and APOBEC3 are expressed together in cells, they sequester near peri-nuclear sites.The 3′-UTR of mRNAs generally encode multiple miRNA binding sites as well as binding sites for a variety of RNA binding proteins. In light of our findings of DND1-APOBEC3 interaction and taking into consideration reports that DND1 and APOBEC3 bind to mRNA to inhibit miRNA mediated repression, our studies implicate a possible role of DND1-APOBEC3 interaction in modulating miRNA-mediated mRNA repression. The interaction of DND1 and APOBEC3 could be one mechanism for maintaining viability of germ cells and for preventing germ cell tumor development
Diversity, Succession and Seasonal Variation of Phylloplane Mycoflora of Leucaena leucocephala in Relation to Its Leaf Litter Decomposition
To address international food security concerns and sustain a growing global population, global agricultural output needs to increase by 70% by the year 2050. Current agricultural techniques to increase crop yields, specifically the application of chemicals, have resulted in a wide range of negative impacts on the environment and human health. The maintenance of good quality soil organic matter, a key concern in tropical countries such as India, requires a steady input of organic residues to maintain soil fertility. A tree with many uses, Leucaena leucocephala, has attracted much attention over the past decades. As per our literature review, no research has been conducted examining Leucaena leucocephala leaves for their fungal decomposition and their use as green manure. A study of the fungal colonization of Leucaena leucocephala leaves at various stages of decomposition was conducted to get an insight into which fungi play a critical role in the decomposition process. In total, fifty-two different species of fungi were isolated. There was an increase in the percentage of fungus occurrences as the leaves senesced and then finally decomposed. Almost all decomposition stages were characterized by a higher percentage occurrence of Deuteromycetes (75.47%) and by a lower rate of Ascomycetes (9.43%). A gradual increase of basidiomycetes such as unidentified sclerotia and Rhizoctonia solani was seen as the leaves senesced and finally decomposed. In the moist chamber, Didymium nigripes was the only Myxomycete isolated from completely decomposed leaves. In the present study, on average, there were more fungi in wet seasons than in the dry seasons
