    The present paper studies the effects of Soret and Dufour on MHD boundary layer slip flow over a flat plate. The governing partial differential equations are converted to a set of nonlinear ordinary differential equations by using similarity transformations. Then, these equations are solved numerically by implicit Finite Difference Scheme. The numerical solutions for Velocity, Temperature and Concentration profiles for the related essential physical parameters are visualized through graphs and discussed. Results show that the velocity rises whereas the temperature and concentration reduces with the respective slip parameters. The increase in Soret number or decrease in Dufour number reduces the temperature and enhances the concentration of the fluid

    Background: The knowledge of fetal human Kidney morphology and developmental anatomy is very important for prenatal diagnosis of disorders such as Wilm’s tumor, hydronephroses and congenital malformation etc.Methods: The study was carried out on 40 kidneys procured from 20 spontaneously aborted fetuses (11males and 9 females) ranging from 14wks-36wks of gestation, after confirming their age through  CRL they were grouped and then processed to form slides and stained with haemtoxylin and eosin and seen under light microscope.Results: All kidneys were lobulated at early gestational age and became fused by 36 wks. Corticomedullary junction and preformed collecting tubules were seen clearly by 18wks. Well differentiated PCT and DCT were formed by 19-23 wks. Well-formed pyramids by 28 wks and medullary rays by 29 weeks were clearly distinguished. Loop of Henle developed and distinguished by 28 wks. Increased vascularity was seen by 32-36 wks. Nephrogenic zone and undifferentiated mesenchyme decreased and matured glomeruli increased by 36 wks.Conclusions: The present study gave emphasis to the development of each component in medulla and cortex of kidney.

    Get PDF
    This paper aims to study the Geometric properties of analytic function in the open unit disk. In the present investigation, we obtain some geometric properties of Pascal distribution involving Kamali type related to leaf like domain. In this paper, we find coefficient inequality, Radii Properties, convolution product, partial sum of the class Σ(δ,Φ,β,s,t,m) \Sigma(\delta, \Phi, \beta, s, t, m) . Furthermore, we examine the distortion bounds belonging to the same class

    Prune belly syndrome (sequenze): a case report

    Get PDF
    The Prune Belly syndrome (PBS) also known as Eagle Barret syndrome is a rare disorder. It is an abdominal muscles deficiency syndrome characterized by a Triad syndrome i.e. deficiency of abdominal wall muscles, failure of testicular descent and dilation of the urinary tract. This syndrome has derived its name from the wrinkled prune appearance of the abdominal wall. Prune Belly syndrome is a rare anomaly seen in one in 35,000-50,000 live births. It occurs in all races. Prune Belly syndrome almost exclusively occurs in males (M:F, 20:1). The diagnosis can be made in utero by ultrasonography at 21 weeks of gestation or in the Neonate with characteristic clinical findings.                                                                                 The present case was a dead male fetus of 20 weeks of gestation sent to Anatomy department after Medical termination of pregnancy, due to congenital anomalies identified in routine ultrasound examination during antenatal checkup

    Impact of dietary and lifestyle choices on menstrual patterns in medical students

    Get PDF
    Background: The aim of the study was to evaluate average age of menarche, the pattern and types of menstrual disorders and their relation with BMI, dietary habits, physical exercise and stress.Methods: A cross sectional prospective study was conducted on female medical students during the academic year 2018-2019 at Mallareddy medical college for women, Suraram, Hyderabad, India. The various life style factors including BMI, junk food consumption and physical exercise were factored. Prevalence of each different menstrual abnormality were identified and analyzed by Chi-squire test and p value <0.005 was considered as statistically significant.Results: Study included 255 medical students who had attained menarche without known medical problems. Mean age of menarche was 12.81years. The most frequent menstrual disorders were premenstrual syndrome 192 (75 %), dysmenorrhoea 146 (57 %), and irregular cycle 97(38%). Statistically significant association of Body mass index (BMI) related to premenstrual syndrome (PMS) and dysmenorrhoea was reported (both p<0.05). Similarly, statistically significant association of lack of physical activity had greater risk of premenstrual syndrome and dysmenorrhoea (both p<0.0001). Unhealthy dietary patterns had statistically significant higher risk for dysmenorrhoea (p<0.0001).Conclusions: In conclusion premenstrual symptoms, dysmenorrhoea and menstrual irregularities were more prevalent. Majority of symptoms were stress, pain abdomen, irritability, mood swings. Comprehensive education programs on lifestyle modifications like regular physical activities, promoting healthy eating habits should be emphasised to prevent menstrual abnormalities of young students as early as at school level

    The present paper deals with the development and validation of reverse phase HPLC method for the determination of Nifedipine on Nucleosil 100, 5 μm, C8, 250 x 4.0 mm column. A mobile phase consisting of 40 ml 2-propanol: 60 ml phosphoric acid 0.85% was employed in this study. The flow rate was kept at 0.8 ml/min and the injection volume was 10 µl. The separation was performed at 40°C. Eluents were monitored by UV detector set at 237 nm. The developed method was statistically validated for the linearity, precision, robustness, specificity and solution stability. The specificity of the method was ascertained by force degradation studies by acid and alkali hydrolysis, oxidation, heat and photo degradation. The degraded products were well resolved from the analyte peak with significant differences in their retention time values

    Full text link
    Numerous reports by the United Nations and the World Health Organization have indicated a significant worldwide problem with water pollution and inaccessibility to potable drinking water. Due to technological and economical barriers, the problem with water pollution is particularly more serious for under-developed and developing countries. The present study is aimed at designing, constructing and evaluating a cost-effective biosand filter was undertaken. Results indicated the removal of up to 80% total hardness, 86% chlorides, 96% turbidity and 90% colour. Moreover, the filter's performance was appraised by the absence of E. coli in the filtered sample. The filter describes the proven bioremediation technology and its ability to empower at-risk populations to use naturally occurring biology and readily available materials as a sustainable way to achieve the health benefits of safe drinking water
