    An m−m-polar fuzzy set and soft sets are two different tools for representing uncertainty and vagueness. An m−m-polar soft fuzzy set is a mapping from parameter set to the m−m-polar fuzzy subsets of the universe. An m−m-polar soft fuzzy set theory provides a parameterized point of view for uncertainty modeling and soft computing model. In this paper, we have introduced the notions of m−m-polar soft fuzzy bipartite graph, size and degree of m−m-polar soft fuzzy bi-partite graph as well as an investigation on buying of residence by considering various parameters. People, while buying residence, have many options. So, to choose the best one, they have to consider many parameters. m−m-polar soft fuzzy graph is one of the major areas of graph theory, which finds a solution to this proble

    An experimental program was conducted to quantify instability-induced imbedded delamination growth. Static tests on double cantilever beam (DCB) specimens yielded the critical mode 1 strain energy release rate (G sub 1 C) for T300/5208 graphite/epoxy. Static tests on mixed mode cracked lap shear (CLS) specimens, and a nonlinear finite element analysis (NFEA) of the CLS specimen to separate mode 1 and mode 2 effects, yielded the critical mode 2 strain energy release rate (G sub 2 C) for T300/5208. Constant amplitude fatigue tests on DCB and CLS specimens, along with the NFEA results on CLS specimens, quantified mode 1 and mode 2 contributions to delamination growth rate. Fatigue tests were conducted at a frequency (omega) of 10 Hertz, maintaining the minimum to maximum cyclic load ratio (R) at 0.05. Static compression and constant amplitude compression fatigue tests were also conducted on specimens with imbedded through the width (ITTW) delaminations. Kapton imbeddments were located below 3, 4 or 6 plies in a 64-ply laminate, during layup, to simulate ITTW delaminations

    Background: Medical students today are subject to a variety of stress; academic, social, emotional or stress in the form of affliction of health during their stay at medical school. The physiological response to these depends on various factors including their inherent coping abilities. This study was designed to examine the coping ability of medical and nursing students at the time of admission to medical school. Materials and Methods: 42 medical and 34 nursing students volunteered for the study. They were administered the BAI questionnaire and classified as good and poor adjusters based on their score. Results: The study revealed an unsatisfactory overall coping ability to be prevalent among medical and nursing students. Conclusion: This study showed that there is a need for orientation and counselling of medical and nursing students at the start of college

    The mol­ecular structure of the title compound, C14H18Br2N2O2, has one half-mol­ecule in the asymmetric unit. The mol­ecule has a crystallographic inversion centre in the middle of the benzene ring. The C—C—N—C torsion angle between the benzene ring and the bromo­amide group is 149.2 (7)°. The crystal is stabilized by a strong inter­molecular N—H⋯O bond and weak C—H⋯O inter­actions. These contacts give rise to a three-dimensional network

    The common and uncommon cestodal infestation encountered in routine histopathological practice from a semi-urban population in south India and their public health importance.

    Parasites are encountered uncommonly in routine histopathologic practice. Among them, cestodes form a major bulk. Cysticercosis heads the list forming the bulk of cases followed by Hydatidosis and Sparganosis. Microscopic identification of inflammation with surrounding reactions along with other morphological features forms the mainstay of diagnosis of parasitic diseases on histopathology. Identification of the parasites on histopathological examination would reduce the cost-diagnosis ratio avoiding expensive serological investigation

    A Study on Thrombolytic Effect of Streptokinase Infusion between Diabetic and Non-Diabetic Myocardial Infarction Patients with ECG as a Tool

    INTRODUCTION: Diabetes Mellitus, being a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease is associated with myocardial infarction (MI) and sudden death at a higher level. In diabetic patients, morbidity and mortality are higher following MI than non-diabetic subjects, with one-year mortality as equal to 50%. The rate of re-infarction is also higher. Diabetes has its impact on the short term as well as long term morbidity of myocardial infarction patients. Platelet activation is enhanced; Diabetes is associated with a procoagulant state. The likelihood of thrombotic events is increased. Thrombus propagation is encouraged; the efficacy of thrombolytic drugs is impaired. The chance of re-occlusion is also increased. Measures which are simple as well as inexpensive are needed to assess the thrombolytic efficacy both in clinical practice as well as in clinical trials. Several studies have shown the utility of ST segment monitoring as a simple and rapid means of assessing reperfusion status in patients receiving fibrinolytic therapy for acute ST elevation myocardial infarction. It is necessary to achieve successful recanalization of the epicardial vessel but microvascular flow strongly correlates with outcome. ST-segment changes are better than coronary angiogram in assessing myocardial perfusion. AIMS AND OBJECTIVES: To study the thrombolytic effect of streptokinase infusion between diabetic and non-diabetic myocardial infarction patients with ECG as a tool. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Selection of Study Population: This study is to be conducted among patients, admitted in coronary care unit with the diagnosis of ST elevation myocardial infarction. Study Population: 100 patients. Study Protocol: Patients who are diagnosed with ST elevation myocardial infarction are included in the study. Random blood sugar values are obtained on admission. Electrocardiogram is obtained on admission and 90 min after streptokinase infusion. Fasting and post prandial glucose values are recorded from all patients, in the morning of day following admission, or once the patients are stable. The results are then analysed. RESULTS: On comparing the ST segment resolution among Diabetic and non-diabetic myocardial infarction patients, by using Chi square test, it is found that failed thrombolysis (70% resolution) is more in non-diabetics than diabetics ( p value is 0.020; significant). In diabetic MI patients (n=60), the number of people with successful thrombolysis (>70% ST resolution) is 11 (18%), whereas failed thrombolysis (< 30% ST resolution) is 40 (67%). p value is 0.001, which is significant. In non-diabetic MI patients (n=40), the number of people with successful thrombolysis (>70% ST resolution) is 21 (52%), whereas failed thrombolysis (<30% ST resolution) is 7 (17.5%). p value is 0.038 which is also significant. CONCLUSION: On comparing the thrombolytic effect of Streptokinase, it is observed that failed thrombolysis (70% ST resolution) is more in non-diabetic than diabetic STEMI patients. Among diabetics, failed thrombolysis (67%) is more than successful thrombolysis (18%). Among non-diabetics, successful thrombolysis (52.5%) is more than failed thrombolysis (17.5%). So, the outcome of thrombolysis of acute ST elevation myocardial infarction patients is affected by type 2 diabetes mellitus
