OUTCOME BASED PHYSICAL EDUCATION STANDARDS: A META ANALYSIS
The present review is a push to recognize a bearing toward result based training with the support of the current writing in physical instruction. The review tries to survey articles identified with physical training appraisal, examine papers with guidelines advancement and shows curricular viewpoints secured by existing curricular structures. This is planned to give a course toward the result based training for the Indian physical instruction. A thorough writing pursuit of research articles from the year 1995 to 2016 (31 year time frame) utilizing the Google researcher, Academia, Books, National and International Journals was the system embraced to separate the current data.

Analyzing the Performance of Different Classifier for Detecting Polarity of Customer Reviews
To determine an author's emotional state from their written words is the focus of sentiment analysis, a subfield of NLP. This study focuses on the many techniques used to categorize the text reviews written in natural language according to the viewpoints expressed therein, in order to determine if the widespread behavior is positive, negative, or neutral. Streaming of thoughts and expression of opinion have been facilitated by the proliferation of debate forums, Weblogs, product review sites, e-commerce, and social networking sites. A lot of people's feelings, reviews, and assessments of others' opinions can be found on social media. This research ranks the top classifier for feelings using data derived from online product reviews posted to Twitter. Experimental work on polarity classification with well-known classifiers such as Naive byes, Support vector machine, and Logistic regression for anticipating testimonials was addressed
Comparative evaluation of itopride and domperidone in gastroesophageal reflux disease
Background: Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) presents in various ways in terms of symptoms and severity. This study was conducted to assess the severity of GERD patients and to evaluate the effect of itopride and domperidone on symptoms and severity of GERD.Methods: A single-blind study was carried out in 70 patients. Group A (n=35) patients were kept on itopride therapy, 50 mg thrice a day before meal. Group B (n=35) patients were kept on domperidone therapy, 10 mg thrice a day before meal. Patients of both groups were given rabeprazole, 20 mg once a day for hyperacidity. Patients served their own control. Each patient was followed-up at 2 weeks interval up to 8 weeks.Results: The most common symptom was heartburn, present in 95.71% patients. Regurgitation was the next most common symptom (65.71%). The most common lesion seen endoscopically (according to Savary Miller classification) was grade I (38.57%). In 24.29% patient, only symptoms of GERD were present without any endoscopically visible mucosal injury. At the end of 2, 4, 6, and 8 weeks, relief of symptoms was more with a combination of itopride and rabeprazole in comparison to the combination of domperidane and rabeprazole, but the difference was statistically insignificant. Healing rate at the end of 4th and 8th week was slight better with a combination of itopride and rabeprazole, but the difference again was statistically insignificant.Conclusion: Combination of itopride and rabeprazole showed insignificantly better results, both symptomatically and endoscopically in comparison to the combination of domperidone and rabeprazole
Synthesizing and Reviewing Research Trends in Automation
The objective of this paper is to develop a thorough understanding of the evolution of automation techniques throughout its time span. To achieve this, a literature review followed by classification schemes and simple Meta analysis have been presented in this paper. The literature review was based on journals collected for the study. A total of 234 articles were selected for the study. The study yielded 37 variables which formed the basis of classification schemes. The first classification scheme was conceptual while the second was functional. The entire study was grouped into these classification schemes. The classification schemes were the foundations for performing simple Meta analysis. The analysis was done under three categories, according to classification schemes, according to year of publication and according to journals. The results show various trends of automation throughout the years. In the end, the results are discussed in detail and future areas of research are identified. Keywords: Automation techniques, Classification schemes, Meta analysis, Primary dimension
Nilpotent Graph
In this article, we introduce the concept of nilpotent graph of a finite commutative ring. The set of all non nilpotent elements of a ring is taken as the vertex set and two vertices are adjacent if and only if their sum is nilpotent. We discuss some graph theoretic properties of nilpotent graph
A prospective study on surgical fixation of complex supracondylar femur fracture with distal femoral locking compression plate: our experiences at a tertiary care centre
Background: The optimal treatment of complex supracondylar femur fractures remains always challenging and controversial. the purpose of this prospective study was to evaluate the efficacy of distal femoral locking compression plate (DF-LCP) in terms of functional outcome and union rate for highly unstable complex supracondylar femur fractures and to determine the influencing factors of an unfavourable outcome.Methods: After obtaining approval from institutional ethics committee, 45 patients with complex supracondylar femur fractures were managed by open reduction and internal fixation with DF-LCP through lateral approach and as per standard protocol. The follow-up results were analysed clinically and radiologically, using the “Schatzker and Lambert criteria” at once in a month for first three months, once in three months up to one year and once in six months thereafter up to 2 years post-operatively.Results: In the present study, average duration of radiological union was 16 (range 12-22) weeks. The average range of motion of knee joint was 105 degrees. Out of 45 patients, clinical results were excellent in 48.9%, good in 17.8%, fair in 22.2% and poor in 11.1% patients according to Schatzker and Lambert criteria. Knee stiffness (7 cases), secondary arthritis (5 cases), and non-union (4 cases) were the main complications observed in this study, which were treated accordingly.Conclusions: DF-LCP holds the metaphyseal bone strongly and prevents metaphyseal collapse and mal-rotation in complex or highly unstable supracondylar femur fractures and simultaneously, it provides stable fixation to promote fracture union and allows early rehabilitation with acceptable complications
Physico-Chemical and Microbiological Assessment of Surface Water Quality of a Himalayan Wetland Deoria Tal, India
The Water Quality Index (WQI) is considered as an important method to assess the water quality of a water body for its users. This study was carried out to assess the water quality of a Himalayan wetland Deoria Tal. Deoria Tal is one of the most important wetlands of the Garhwal Himalaya, India. It is the major destination for tourists, trekkers and local inhabitants. The water samples were collected for a period of one year during April, 2014 to March, 2015. In order to develop the water quality index samples were subjected to a comprehensive physico-chemical analysis of 20 parameters which include air temperature, water temperature, pH, conductivity, turbidity, dissolved oxygen, free CO2, biochemical oxygen demand, total dissolved solids, transparency, total alkalinity, hardness, chlorides, sulphates, phosphates, nitrates, Calcium, Magnesium, Potassium and Sodium. The WQI was calculated and the value was obtained as 76.15. Most of the values of physico-chemical parameters are within the prescribed limits of WHO/BIS for drinking water. Water Quality Index (WQI) calculated based on the weight values of these parameters also revealed the ‘good’ quality of lake water. The α-diversity of microbes was found to be 18 in the water of Deoria Tal. The water of the lake is fit for human consumption. Keeping in view the importance of the lake and to provide the sustainable water quality for users its conservation and management is priority in the Himalayan region.
