An Improvement in Congestion Control Using Multipath Routing in MANET
The ad hoc connections, which opens many opportunities for MANET applications. In ad hoc network nodes are movable and there is no centralised management. Routing is an important factor in mobile ad hoc network which not only works well with a small network, but also it can also work well if network get expanded dynamically. Routing in Manets is a main factor considered among all the issues. Mobile nodes in Manet have limited transmission capacity, they intercommunicate by multi hop relay. Multi hop routing have many challenges such as limited wireless bandwidth, low device power, dynamically changing network topology, and high vulnerability to Failure. To answer those challenges, many routing algorithms in Manets were proposed. But one of the problems in routing algorithm is congestion which decreases the overall performance of the network so in this paper we are trying to identify the best routing algorithm which will improve the congestion control mechanism among all the Multipath routing protocols.

Node Disjoint Multipath Routing Approach for Controlling Congestion in MANETs
Mobile Ad hoc Networks are highly dynamic networks. Quality of Service (QoS) routing in such networks is usually limited by the network breakage due to either node mobility or energy depletion of the mobile nodes. Nodedisjoint routing becomes inessential technique in communication of packets among various nodes in networks. Meanwhile AODV (Ad Hoc On-demand Multipath Distance Vector) creates single-path route between a pair of source and destination nodes. Some researches has done so far to make multipath node-disjoint routing based on AODV protocol. But however their overhead and end-to-end delay are relatively high, while the detail of their code is not available too. In an ad hoc network, identification of all node-disjoint paths between a given pair of nodes is a challenging task. The phenomena that a protocol is not able to identify all node-disjoint paths that exist between a given pair of nodes is called path diminution. In this paper, we discuss that path diminution is unavoidable when a protocol discovers multiple node-disjoint paths in a single route discovery and working of node disjoint multipath protocol

An Efficient Technique for mining Association rules using Enhanced Apriori Algorithm
There are Various mining algorithms of association rules. One of the most popular algorithm is Apriori that extracts frequent itemset from large database and getting the association rule for discovering the knowledge. this paper pitfalls the limitation of the original Apriori algorithm for wasting time for scanning the whole database searching on to the frequent itemsets, and presents an technique on Apriori by reducing that wasted time depending on scanning only some transactions whose support value is bigger than 25% of minimum Support is taken as frequent item set and is added to the frequent item sets and then rules are formed. An enhanced Apriori algorithm may find the tendency of a customer on the basis of frequently purchased item-sets The proposed algorithm is useful as a frequent item sets predictor with lower number of scans.

An Efficient Technique for mining Association rules using Enhanced Apriori Algorithm A Literature survey
At present Data mining has a lot of e-Commerce applications. The key problem in this is how to find useful hidden patterns for better business applications in the retail sector. For the solution of those problems, The Apriori algorithm is the most popular data mining approach for finding frequent item sets from a transaction dataset and derives association rules. Association Rules are the discovered knowledge from the data base. Finding frequent item set (item sets with frequency larger than or equal to a user specified minimum support) is not trivial because of its combinatorial explosion. Once item sets are obtained, it is straightforward approach to generate association rules with confidence value larger than or equal to a user specified minimum confidence value. Apriori uses bottom up strategy. It is the most famous and classical algorithm for mining frequent patterns. Apriori algorithm works on categorical attributes. Apriori uses breadth first searc
Direct superior vena cava puncture for inferior vena cava filter retrieval
Most inferior vena cava (IVC) filters are designed for retrieval from a superior approach. Retrieval becomes technically challenging when the central veins in the chest are occluded. In a patient with thrombosis of the bilateral brachiocephalic veins, the authors describe direct puncture of the superior vena cava (SVC) under fluoroscopy, followed by the successful retrieval of a fractured IVC filter using forceps. A snare inserted into the SVC via the common femoral vein was used as a radiopaque target for direct SVC puncture from the lower neck. Cone beam computed tomography and pullback tractography were used to confirm a safe access trajectory. Thus, direct SVC access may be used for filter retrieval in similar clinical scenarios
Whole genome expression and biochemical correlates of extreme constitutional types defined in Ayurveda
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Ayurveda is an ancient system of personalized medicine documented and practiced in India since 1500 B.C. According to this system an individual's basic constitution to a large extent determines predisposition and prognosis to diseases as well as therapy and life-style regime. Ayurveda describes seven broad constitution types (<it>Prakriti</it>s) each with a varying degree of predisposition to different diseases. Amongst these, three most contrasting types, <it>Vata</it>, <it>Pitta</it>, <it>Kapha</it>, are the most vulnerable to diseases. In the realm of modern predictive medicine, efforts are being directed towards capturing disease phenotypes with greater precision for successful identification of markers for prospective disease conditions. In this study, we explore whether the different constitution types as described in Ayurveda has molecular correlates.</p> <p>Methods</p> <p>Normal individuals of the three most contrasting constitutional types were identified following phenotyping criteria described in Ayurveda in Indian population of Indo-European origin. The peripheral blood samples of these individuals were analysed for genome wide expression levels, biochemical and hematological parameters. Gene Ontology (GO) and pathway based analysis was carried out on differentially expressed genes to explore if there were significant enrichments of functional categories among <it>Prakriti </it>types.</p> <p>Results</p> <p>Individuals from the three most contrasting constitutional types exhibit striking differences with respect to biochemical and hematological parameters and at genome wide expression levels. Biochemical profiles like liver function tests, lipid profiles, and hematological parameters like haemoglobin exhibited differences between <it>Prakriti </it>types. Functional categories of genes showing differential expression among <it>Prakriti </it>types were significantly enriched in core biological processes like transport, regulation of cyclin dependent protein kinase activity, immune response and regulation of blood coagulation. A significant enrichment of housekeeping, disease related and hub genes were observed in these extreme constitution types.</p> <p>Conclusion</p> <p>Ayurveda based method of phenotypic classification of extreme constitutional types allows us to uncover genes that may contribute to system level differences in normal individuals which could lead to differential disease predisposition. This is a first attempt towards unraveling the clinical phenotyping principle of a traditional system of medicine in terms of modern biology. An integration of Ayurveda with genomics holds potential and promise for future predictive medicine.</p
Interhospital Transfer Before Thrombectomy Is Associated With Delayed Treatment and Worse Outcome in the STRATIS Registry (Systematic Evaluation of Patients Treated With Neurothrombectomy Devices for Acute Ischemic Stroke).
BACKGROUND: Endovascular treatment with mechanical thrombectomy (MT) is beneficial for patients with acute stroke suffering a large-vessel occlusion, although treatment efficacy is highly time-dependent. We hypothesized that interhospital transfer to endovascular-capable centers would result in treatment delays and worse clinical outcomes compared with direct presentation.
METHODS: STRATIS (Systematic Evaluation of Patients Treated With Neurothrombectomy Devices for Acute Ischemic Stroke) was a prospective, multicenter, observational, single-arm study of real-world MT for acute stroke because of anterior-circulation large-vessel occlusion performed at 55 sites over 2 years, including 1000 patients with severe stroke and treated within 8 hours. Patients underwent MT with or without intravenous tissue plasminogen activator and were admitted to endovascular-capable centers via either interhospital transfer or direct presentation. The primary clinical outcome was functional independence (modified Rankin Score 0-2) at 90 days. We assessed (1) real-world time metrics of stroke care delivery, (2) outcome differences between direct and transfer patients undergoing MT, and (3) the potential impact of local hospital bypass.
RESULTS: A total of 984 patients were analyzed. Median onset-to-revascularization time was 202.0 minutes for direct versus 311.5 minutes for transfer patients (
CONCLUSIONS: In this large, real-world study, interhospital transfer was associated with significant treatment delays and lower chance of good outcome. Strategies to facilitate more rapid identification of large-vessel occlusion and direct routing to endovascular-capable centers for patients with severe stroke may improve outcomes.
