    Infective liver diseases are more than 18% of total Chronic Liver Diseases and been ranked as the fifth most common cause of death worldwide. Krimi can create systemic infection like - Jvara, Vibarnata (skin rash), Shula (Pain), Bhaktadwesa (anorexia), Krimija Pandu (Anaemia) etc. to organ specific disorders like - Krimi Danta, Krimi Karna, Asadhya Pratisyaya, Krimi Granthi, Krimija Hrudroga, Krimija Shira Roga But Krimijayakrit Vikara/Roga is not found in classical literature. A considerable number of Infectious liver disease patients came to various Ayurveda Hospital and expert Ayurveda physicians either feed up with conventional treatment or cannot bear the expenses of conventional therapy. Therefore, it is an attempt to establish the role of Krimi in Aupasarkika Yakrit Vikara through reviewing Ayurveda and modern literature with some experience-based inputs. Virus, bacteria, protozoa can be Adrisya Krimi (not visible in necked eye), Anu (minute) and Suksma and Nematodes and fungus are Drisya (Visible) Krimis. Purisaja and Raktaja Krimi can produce Krimija Yakrit Roga as near to Liver and through gut - liver axis and rich circulation of liver. Jvara (Fever), Shula (abdominal pain), Mandagni (low digestive power), Pita Netrata (Jaundice) are cardinal symptom of Krimija Yakrit Roga. In three dosas, Kapha Dosa is more aggravated in Krimija Yakrit Roga. Rakta Vaha Srotas and Purisha Vaha are mostly affected Srotas in Krimija Yakrit Roga. Sahaja Krimi or Avaikarik Krimi are said to be gut microbiota which are more than 100 trillion microorganisms in the gut show high metabolic activity and are continuously helping with the host immune system through gut-liver axis. Krimija Yakrit Roga can be a type of Yakrit Roga which clinically manifested as Yakritdalludara (Hepato megaly) and Yakrit Kshyaya (Cirrhosis of Liver). Successful diagnosis of type of Krimi can be possible though careful history and appropriate microbial and radiological studies for proper treatment of liver diseases

    Review of Some Transaction Models used in Mobile Databases

    Mobile computing is presently experiencing a period of unprecedented growth with the convergence of communication and computing capabilities of mobile phones and personal digital assistant. However, mobile computing presents many inherent problems that lead to poor network connectivity. To overcome poor connectivity and reduce cost, mobile clients are forced to operate in disconnected and partially connected modes. One of the main goals of mobile data access is to reach the ubiquity inherent to the mobile systems: to access information regardless of time and place. Due to mobile systems restrictions such as, for instance, limited memory and narrow bandwidth, it is only natural that researchers expend efforts to soothe such issues. This work approaches the issues regarding the cache management in mobile databases, with emphasis in techniques to reduce cache faults while the mobile device is either connected, or with a narrow bandwidth, or disconnected at all. Thus, it is expected improve data availability while a disconnection. Here in the paper, we try to describe various mobile transaction models, focusing on versatile data sharing mechanisms in volatile mobile environments

    Pathya & Apathya (Wholesome & Unwholesome diet and regimen) in Yakrit Kshaya (Liver Cirrhosis) : A Narrative Review

    Get PDF
    Yakrit Kshaya (Liver Cirrhosis) is associated with vitiated Agni (digestive power), production of Ama (Undigested food) and Anuloma and Pratilomakshyaya (forward and backward depletion of Dhatu). Approximate 20% compensated cirrhosis patients and 65-95% decompensated cirrhosis patient have either Anuloma Dhatu Kshaya (forward depletion) or Pratilomana Dhatu Kshaya (backward depletion) or both types of malnutrition. Pathya (wholesome diet and regimen) is defined as the Ahara (Diet) and Vihara (regimen) that give proper nutrition to body and mind, clear the micro channels of Body (Pantha/Marga/Srotas), and provide happiness; that opposite is Apathya(unwholesome diet and regimen). A Pathya and Apathya chart for Yakrit Kshaya (Liver Cirrhosis) is prepared and presented. Chinta (anxiety), Shoka (depression), Krotha (anger), Duhkha (sorrow), Dukkha Shaiya (uncomforted bed) and Ratrijagarana (insomnia) can contribute for the indigestion even if a small quantity of Pathyaahara (wholesome diet). Normal diet with Goghruta (ghee) prepared from curd (Emulsified fat), Mamsa Rasa, milk can balance the protein. The Yakrit Kshaya patients should eat 6-8 times in small quantity (snax, mini meal ) as their Agni is low to very low. Mid night meal is also advisable for reduce protein breakdown. Restriction of water, sour and salty foods, fast foods are very crucial for the treatment outcome as it create Ama. More research on Pathya (Ayurveda diet) in Yakritkshaya (Liver cirrhosis) is encouraged

    Effect of plasma treatment on crease recovery finish of linen with carboxylic acid

    Get PDF
    470-474The effect of helium plasma treatment has been investigated on crease recovery finish of linen fabric using carboxylic acid as crosslinker. After the plasma treatment, 5% increase in wet pickup is observed compared to the control fabric. This plasma treated sample is crosslinked with butyl tetracarboxylic acid (BTCA). The significant increase in crease recovery angle is found as compared to the untreated crosslinked fabric. However, significant reduction in tearing is also observed in both the cases. Tearing strength could be improved to acceptable range by adding silicone softener during cross-linking process. The untreated and plasma-treated fabrics are analyzed by scanning electron microscope and ATR-FTIR spectroscopy to investigate the changes in surface morphology and surface functional groups

    In this work, polyacrylonitrile (PAN) and polylactic acid (PLA) blended polymers have been used to prepare a flexible and partially biodegradable electrospun nanofibre sheet suitable for filtration application. Also, acetone has been used as a replacement of dimethyl formamide (DMF) during spinning and a needleless (wire electrode) electrospinning machine has been used for filament preparation. Initially, PAN fibre is spun with DMF and various parameters, such as polymer concentration, voltage, distance between electrodes and RH%, are standardised. With these standard parameters, PLA is then added with PAN, and PLA concentration is optimised without affecting the desired fibre diameter. Further, the amount of acetone with DMF is also standardised without affecting the fibre diameter. Finally, polymer concentration of 2.5% PAN with 0.5% of PLA, a potential difference of 55 kV, electrode distance of 125mm at 35% RH and 10% acetone are found suitable for getting the desired nanofibre with minimum diameter.

    Links of balancing and cobalancing numbers with Pell and associated Pell numbers are established. It is proved that the n th balancing number is product of the n th Pell number and the n th associated Pell number. It is further observed that the sequences of balancing and cobalancing numbers are very closely related to the Pell sequence whereas, the sequences of Lucas-balancing and Lucas-cobalancing numbers constitute the associated Pell sequence. The solutions of some Diophantine equations including Pythagorean and Pythagorean-type equations are obtained in terms of these numbers. 1
