Material Management: A Sustainable Way to Reduce the Wastage

In today’s world construction work are going at unexpected speed in all area like building, bridge, high-rise and so on. As we know there are two side of coin same way there are some disadvantage of this speedy construction which leads towards a wastage, like Material, Money, Time, and so on. One of the most important part of wastage is due to Improper Material Management. If we not prepare good management technic of material management than it convert in to wastage. It shall be very hard to manage wastage rather than managing the material. So if we want to manage the waste we need to manage the material in Proper Way. For that first of all we need to find out the importance of Phases of Material Management and Crucial Factors which affects the material management

An observational case control study: study of preterm labour- risk factors and its outcome

Background: Preterm birth is considered as the most significant risk in infant morbidity and mortality. The number of preterm births can be reduced significantly if all of the risk factors for predicting preterm births were eliminated to maximum extent. The aim of this study was analysis of risk factors of preterm labour and its outcome through case control study.Methods: It was an observational case control study of 200 pregnant women divided into study group of 100 pregnant women who were admitted with signs and symptoms of preterm labour with gestational age between 28-36 weeks. Control group of 100 pregnant women having gestational age above 36 weeks and with spontaneous onset of active labour. Risk factors and other parameters of both the groups were analyzed along with their neonatal outcome.Results: It was found that premature rupture of membrane, previous abortion, previous preterm delivery, anemia and impaired body mass index (BMI) are significantly higher in cases with preterm labour (p value <0.05). Hyperbilirubinemia, birth asphyxia and respiratory distress syndrome are significantly higher in cases with preterm labour (p value <0.05).Conclusions: Preterm labour is a multifactorial problem. Preterm labour and delivery require early and prolonged hospitalization causing great financial and psychological burden on the society and the number of preterm births can be reduced significantly if all of the risk factors for predicting preterm births were eliminated to maximum extent

Background: Intrauterine devices are an effective and increasingly popular from of reversible contraception and are most effective method of long-term contraception. Post placental intrauterine contraceptive devices insertion is done within 48 hours of birth which is ideal period ass women are strongly motivated to do so at this time. Aim was to understand knowledge, acceptance and complication of post placental intrauterine contractive device insertion.Methods: This was a prospective observational study conducted in obstetrics and gynecology department of a tertiary care centre from 1st September 2021 to 28th February 2022.Results: Total 84 patient were counselled out which 50 were willing for PPIUCD out of which 48 (58%) patients PPIUCD was inserted and 2 patients were deferred.Conclusions: PPIUCD was accepted in 50 (60%) of counselled total patients out which most of the patient were 20-29 years having graduate degrees and were mutipara most common cause of acceptance was that it is long term method of contraception most of the patient were counselled intrapartum and had vaginal method of delivery patient were minimum complications with most common complication of missing threads and expulsion

Mixed connective tissue disease presenting with isolated pulmonary hypertension, and limited cutaneous sclerosis

Mixed connective tissue disease (MCTD) was first recognized by Sharp and Colleagues in 1972 among a group of patients with overlapping clinical features of systemic lupus erythematosis (SLE), scleroderma and myositis, with the presence of distinctive antibodies against, what now is known to be U1ribonucleoprotein (RNP). We report an unusual case of a 29-year old female with MCTD characterized by the coexistence of signs, symptoms and immunological features of 3 defined autoimmune diseases isolated PHT, cutaneous sclerosis (SSc), hypothyroidism

Epidemiology report:Trends in sex-specific cerebrovascular disease mortality in Europe based on WHO mortality data

Aims: There have been substantial declines in cerebrovascular disease mortality across much of Europe, mirroring trends in deaths from cardiovascular disease as a whole. No study has investigated trends in cerebrovascular disease, and its subtypes within all European countries. This study aimed to examine sex-specific trends in cerebrovascular disease, and three of its sub-types: ischaemic stroke, haemorrhagic stroke, and subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH), in Europe between 1980 and 2016. Methods and results: Sex-specific mortality data for each country of the World Health Organization (WHO) Europe region were extracted from the WHO global mortality database and analysed using Joinpoint software to examine trends. The number and location of significant joinpoints for each country by sex and subtype was determined using a log-linear model. The annual percentage change within each segment was calculated along with the average annual percentage change over the duration of all available data. The last 35 years have seen large overall declines in cerebrovascular disease mortality rates in the majority of European countries. While these declines have continued steadily in more than half of countries, this analysis has revealed evidence of recent plateauing and even increases in stroke mortality in a number of countries, in both sexes, and in all four geographical sub-regions of Europe. Analysis by stroke sub-type revealed that recent plateauing was most common for haemorraghic stroke and increases were most common for ischaemic stroke. Conclusion: These findings highlight the need for continued research into the inequalities in both current stroke mortality outcomes and trends across Europe, as well as the causes behind any recent plateauing of total cerebrovascular disease or its subtypes

Dislocation engineering in InAlGaAs/SiGe alloy systems for heteroepitaxial integration

Thesis: Ph. D., Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Department of Materials Science and Engineering, 2019Cataloged from PDF version of thesis.Includes bibliographical references (pages 87-92).Semiconductor devices based on GaAs substrates use III-V alloy systems like Inx(AlyGa₁₋y)₁₋xAs for optoelectronic devices and high frequency communication applications. Heteroepitaxial integration of such devices with Si has generated a lot of interest because it has the potential of combining the desired material properties with the low cost of the Si manufacturing platform and enabling monolithic integration with Si CMOS, creating novel integrated circuits. However, heteroepitaxial integration introduces challenges related to detrimental crystal defects like dislocations that are created in the process and require buffer layers to accommodate such defects and minimize their impact on device performance. One buffer layer scheme that is receiving widespread adoption involves the direct growth of Ge on Si. It produces a threading dislocation density ~2x10⁷ cm⁻² but this density is too high for applications like high efficiency GaAs solar cells.In this work, we aim to study two methods that can reduce this defect density. One involves developing a similar procedure to Ge on Si growth, for growing Ge on Si₅₀Ge₅₀. We find that despite the lower lattice mismatch and availability of pre-existing mobile dislocations in this approach, the Ge film retains a high metastable strain that generates a high density of crystal defects. The second method involves the use of low x Inx(A1yGa₁₋y)₁₋xAs buffer layers that use compressive strain to encourage dislocation reactions and drive dislocations to sinks (mesa sidewalls). Filtering effects lead to a reduced threading dislocation density, the lowest measured in this study is 7x10⁶cm⁻² , but these effects do not scale with x, showing that dislocation sources are active and play an important role. These films have residual tension due to differences in coefficient of thermal expansion with Si substrates.Recombination enhanced dislocation glide effects permit direct visualization of processes that operate to relive this residual strain at room temperature, in cathodoluminescence imagining conditions. This provides a first estimate of density of dislocation sources and interaction probability between dislocations under residual strain conditions. Unexpected dark line defects were observed in cathodoluminescence imaging and the use of "overshoot layer" was demonstrated to be critical in reducing their density. Preliminary work towards processing photovoltaic cells and a layer transfer method that involves wafer bonding for reuse of buffer layers is also discussed.by Rushabh Shah.Ph.

Enhancing Services to Develop an Effective Loyalty Program for IKANO Financial Services

The purpose of this project is to investigate loyalty market in the UK, to give IKANO Financial Services an understanding of their current position compared to competitors and to enhance IKANO‟s loyalty program services to gain a competitive edge in the market. Based upon literature review, new versions of competitor analysis and service analysis have been developed. The competitor analysis model helps in understanding what type of loyalty services are offered by Loyalty providers in the UK and gives a snapshot of IKANO‟s current position in the market. The service analysis model gives a snapshot of all the services that IKANO offers at present. It breaks down the services into different levels which can be further analysed to define a Unique Selling Point and gain a competitive edge in the market. Competitor analysis showed that IKANO lags behind the loyalty market and the major players in the UK majorly because the company does not provide key services like Real Time services and Mobile Apps services. Service Analysis model effectively points out the services that are automated/standardized by IKANO at present and what are the areas which can be automated/standardized upto a certain extent to effectively use resources available. Analysis of both the models collectively gives a picture of loyalty services in the UK and gives an idea of how IKANO can enhance their service offerings
