Unusual Large Sporadic Angiomyolipoma Co-existing with Huge Simple Renal Cyst
Renal Angiomyolipoma (AML) is an unusual benign mesenchymal tumor with no malignant potential. It is composed of adipose tissue, smooth muscle and abnormal thick walled blood vessels. It can occur sporadically or may be associated with tuberous sclerosis. Sporadic angiomyolipoma (AML) coexisting with simple renal cyst is extremely rare and only one case report is available in the literature. In our case, unique combination of sporadic AML along with simple renal cyst with huge size and weight was noted. To the best of our knowledge, ours is the second such case and first case from India. Due to its large size, complete nephrectomy was performed to avoid chances of rupture and retroperitoneal hemorrhage. Post-operative period was uneventful and the patient ahs been on regular follow-up
DataHub: Collaborative Data Science & Dataset Version Management at Scale
Relational databases have limited support for data collaboration, where teams
collaboratively curate and analyze large datasets. Inspired by software version
control systems like git, we propose (a) a dataset version control system,
giving users the ability to create, branch, merge, difference and search large,
divergent collections of datasets, and (b) a platform, DataHub, that gives
users the ability to perform collaborative data analysis building on this
version control system. We outline the challenges in providing dataset version
control at scale.Comment: 7 page
Comparative study of pap smear and microbiological pattern in bacterial vaginosis
Background: Bacterial vaginosis is the most common cause of vaginal discharge among women in reproductive age group. It is characterized by an increased vaginal pH and loss of normal lactobacilli and overgrowth of anaerobes like Gardnerella vaginalis and other gram-negative rods. Purpose of this study is to compare the characteristics of pap smear and microbiological pattern in patients with abnormal vaginal discharge.Methods: The study was conducted in the Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics of Rajarajeswari Medical College and Hospital (RRMCH) Bangalore, India. All patients with vaginal discharge were included in the study. Vaginal discharge samples were sent to gram staining, culture and pap smear examination.Results: Of the 52 patients, 18 patients (34.6%) showed positive for bacterial vaginosis according to Nugent’s score. Of the 18 patients with positive Gram stains, 8 of them were positive for bacterial vaginosis according to pap’s smear (44%) and 10 had negative pap smears. In our study, of the 18 patients with positive Gram stains, 14 (77%) of them were positive for bacterial vaginosis according to culture.Conclusions: In the present study we found out that correlation of gram stain and pap smear was 44% whereas correlation of gram stain and culture was 77%. Hence, we conclude that gram stain and culture are preferred for the diagnosis of bacterial vaginosis rather than the pap smear evaluation
A Novel method for user authentication by CaRP And Login History
Cyber security is the main challenge nowadays. Many authentication techniques are available for these, for unwanted access for more secure data is prohibited. Graphical and text password are used for user authentication process. Sometimes text passwords are not secured and graphical password are more secure but vulnerable to shoulders surfing attack. The click event on various points for user friend-lines and protection from various security attacks. In system, login history image file combined CaRP for user authentication to enhancing the more security level primitives .The image file contain details of login and logout for date, time all related information. The file is encrypted by DES algorithm and send that file on mail. It is higher security primitives for the user. online guessing attack, relay attacks and if combined with dual technology for shoulder surfing attack are new concepts are available.

Login History and CaRP for User Authentication
Password is main vulnerability in computer security. Passwords are commonly guessed by machine programs running dictionary attacks. Passwords main used for the authentication method in spite of security weaknesses. User authentication obviously practical issue. According to the view of a service provider this problem needs to be resolved within real-world constraints such as the available hardware and software infrastructures. According to user’s view user friendliness is a basic requirement Click based graphical password scheme provides a different approach to address the familiar image hotspot problem. Graphical password systems such as PassPoints, that frequently leads to weak password choices. So to provide user friend-liness and also the protection from various security attacks. In this, graphical password scheme, the click event is performed on various points on same or different images.

Length-weight relationship of green mussel Perna viridis (Linnaeus, 1758) from Versova creek, Mumbai
Malabar coast is well known for oilsardine and
mackerel fishery. The oilsardine fishery along the
coast is characterised by annual fluctuations in
landings. Mangalore and Malpe fisheries
harbours are the major oilsardine landing centres of
Karnataka. Malpe Fisheries Harbour contributes
40-65% to the total oilsardine landings in Karnataka

Psycho-social study of adolescent girls of rural Konkan region (Maharashtra)
Background: Konkan area in Maharashtra, India is rich in Biodiversity and known for its Natural Beauty. At the same time geographical difficulties, poor socio-economical status, superstitial and religious beliefs are some important factors contributing to more Psycho-social problems in this area including Physical Health. We focused in this Study to find out Psychological Problems, Health issues and planning future activities for School going adolescent girls.Methods: The Study was carried out on total no. Of 1290 School going adolescent girls of age group 11-20 years, over the period of six months. The following Psychological and Physical parameters were considered. Mental Status Examination, Higher Mental Functions, Personality, Decision Making capacity. Hemoglobin status, Body Mass Index and Health related factors of Adolescent girls.Results: According to Psychological assessment78.46% had abnormal expression, poor hygiene, low decision making. 72.47% were underweight and 47.22% were anemic.Conclusions: More Active measures need to be taken for care of Psychological and Physical health. Awareness Programme needs to implement for Students, Parents, Teachers and Public.
Ankle brachial pressure index to assess atherosclerotic risk in hypertensive subjects
Background: This research was planned to study correlation of ankle brachial pressure index (ABPI) with clinical features, laboratory investigations and anthropometric measurements in patients of essential hypertension and to establish association of atherosclerosis risk in hypertensive subject.Methods: This prospective observational year-long study was conducted after the institutional ethics committee approval in outpatient department of a tertiary care hospital. 153 adult non-pregnant patients were enrolled after written informed consent. Out of these, 51 patients each were of stage I hypertension, stage II hypertension and normal blood pressure. The ABPI were measured in the posterior tibial arteries using a Doppler ultrasound probe. The detailed demographic and anthropometric data was entered in proforma and data statistically analyzed.Results: In our study 28 (55%) out of 51 patients in stage II Hypertension had low ABPI as compared to 23 (45%) out of 51 patients in stage I Hypertension. No patients with normal blood pressure had low ABPI. There is significant correlation of stage of hypertension and ABPI (p <0.001). Mean ABPI (0.9102) in stage II hypertensive was low as compared to stage I hypertensive (0.9124) and normotensive subjects (1.0263). ABPI was inversely correlated with lipid profile. The hypertensive subjects with duration of hypertension for more than 5 years, the mean ABPI was significantly lower (0.8773) than those hypertensive subjects who had duration of hypertension less than 5 years (0.9526) (p 0.001).Conclusions: ABPI proves to be a non-invasive, bed side modality to assess the atherosclerotic risk in hypertensive patients.
