THE COMBINED EFFECT OF VARABHRIHATYADI KASHAYA AND SARAPUNKHA LEPA IN CHRONIC TONSILLITIS IN CHILDREN
Children with the clinical features of Chronic Tonsillitis coming under the age group 3-12 years were included in the study. The patients were randomly allocated in to the study group and control group using simple random sampling technique. In the study group the dose of Varabrihatyadi Kashaya was fixed as follows, in the age group 3-6 years: 10ml bd before food, in the age group 6-9 years: 20ml bd before food, in the age group 9-12 years: 30ml bd before food. Sarapunkha lepa was applied around the neck where enlarged lymph nodes were found. Frequency of paste was fixed as two times daily and at each time, it is kept until it becomes dry. At the same time those in the control group were subjected to external application of Sarapunkha lepa only. Both the groups were followed for a period of 1 month after the scheduled course of intervention. Routine blood investigations were also carried out before and after the study. The data were analyzed using the most appropriate statistical tests. Significant changes were obtained in the clinical parameters in the study group used for assessment such as recurrent attacks of sore throat, pain in the throat, pain on swallowing, difficulty in swallowing, halitosis, mouth breathing, hoarseness of voice, chocking spells at night, size of the tonsil, congestion of pillars, oedema of the uvula, deviation of the uvula and lymph node enlargement. There was a significant change in the routine blood investigations also. Moreover the trial drug sustained its potential action even during the follow up period. The effect of control drug was insignificant. The final evaluation proved that combination of Varabhrihathyadi Kashaya and Sarapunkha lepa was effective in reducing the signs and symptoms of Chronic Tonsillitis in children of 3-12 yrs age group
AYURVEDIC MANAGEMENT OF UNEXPLAINED INFERTILITY- A CASE STUDY
Infertility is a condition in which successful pregnancy has not occurred, despite normal intercourse over 12 months. The cause of female infertility is multifactorial. Ayurveda assures normal pregnancy by proper maintenance of Garbha Samgraha samagris and normalcy of mind. All the causes of female infertility come under the imbalance of Garbha Samgraha Samagri and mind factors. In this case report patient suffered from primary infertility since six years, after allopathic consultation came for ayurvedic treatment. From detailed history involvement of vitiated Vatha, Agnimandhya and stressful mind was noticed. She was treated with Chiruvilwadi kashayam, Dhanwantharam gulika, Jeerakarishtam, Kumaryasavam and Manasamithravatakam for one month. Took follicular study on next cycle and revealed post ovulatory status on 16th day of cycle. Advised Phalasarpis, Dhanwantharam Gulika and Manasamithravatakam for two weeks. Patient came with positive urine pregnancy test after one week of missed period. The line of treatment followed in this case was to maintain Agni, normalize Vatha and assure proper health to mind. During the second half of the cycle Garbhasthapana medicines were administered. Patient took Dhanwantharam gulika and phalasarpis throughout the first trimester along with regular ante natal check up. Continued Dhanwantharam gulika up to 36 weeks and started Sukhaprasavagritham upto delivery from 36 weeks onwards. She delivered a female baby on 06.05.2018
Synthesis and Humidity Sensing Properties of Sn-Doped Nano- T
Nanostructured Sn-doped TiO2 have been prepared by ball milling using SnO2 and TiO2 as raw materials. The as-prepared powders are characterized by XRD, SEMs and EDAX to identify the structural phases, surface morphology, and composition of the materials. The materials are prepared with the addition of tin of different molar ratios (0, 0.05, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20, 0.25, and 1.0) to TiO2 and sintered at
800ยฐC for 3โh. They are subjected to dc resistance measurements as a function of relative humidity (RH) in the range of
30%โ97% in a self-designed humidity chamber, and the results revealed that the sensitivity factor increased with an increase in tin molar ratio. Among them, TiO2โ20โwt% of SnO2 possessed the highest humidity sensitivity, while the pure TiO2 and SnO2 composite possessed a low sensitivity
Ayurvedic management of idiopathic granulomatous mastitis (Sthanavidradhi): A case study
Idiopathic Granulomatous Mastitis (IGM) is described as an uncommon, benign inflammatory breast disease of unknown etiology. Although its exact prevalence is unknown, IGM is considered to be very rare. Here, we report the case of a 36-year-old female who came to our hospital with complaints of pain and lump in the right breast since 2 months. We diagnosed the case as Sthana Vidradhi and vathakaphasamana chikithsa was administered. The wound was managed with vranaropakalepa and kashaya. After treatment, the wound was healed. Pain and tenderness were reduced and the lump was disappeared after two months of medication. The medication continued and complete recovery was noted after 6 months of treatment. The patient was monitored for six months after the complete cure. 
Mussel Farming: A Glimpse
Mariculture of bivalves is of great importance in meeting the
increasing protein demands of the human population. Bivalve
groups such as oyster, mussel and clam are the most important
cultivable organisms all over the world. Mussels are sedentary
bivalves attaching to rocky substrata by byssus threads and they are filter feeders. Among them, Perna viridis (Green Mussel) and Perna perna (Brown mussel) form the most dominant cultivable mussel species
Pen Culture
Pen culture is defined as the raising of fish in a volume of water enclosed on all sides except the bottom, permitting the free circulation of water at least from one side. The bottom of the water body forms the bottom of the pen. This system can be considered a hybrid between pond culture and cage culture. They are usually constructed along the shallow regions of potential water bodies including the banks of the lakes as well as reservoirs

Polyaniline/Pillared Montmorillonite Clay Composite Nanofibers
In situ polymerization of aniline is done
inside the pillared clay matrix. The nonswellable pillared
clay confined matrix allows efficient polymerization that
leads to nanofibrous morphology. As a result high polymer
order and crystallinity is attained and is evident from
XRD patterns. The strong interaction between the clay
layers and polyaniline (PANI) is understood from FTIR and DRS spectra. Additionally these analytical results suggest that the prepared PANI is in the doped state. The
PANI/pillared clay nanocomposite formation gives additional
thermal stability to the polymer backbone and is clear from the DTG curves
Data Flows Mapping in Fog Computing Infrastructures Using Evolutionary Inspired Heuristic
The need for scalable and low-latency architectures that can process large amount of data from geographically distributed sensors and smart devices is a main driver for the popularity of the fog computing paradigm. A typical scenario to explain the fog success is a smart city where monitoring applications collect and process a huge amount of data from a plethora of sensing devices located in streets and buildings. The classical cloud paradigm may provide poor scalability as the amount of data transferred risks the congestion on the data center links, while the high latency, due to the distance of the data center from the sensors, may create problems to latency critical applications (such as the support for autonomous driving). A fog node can act as an intermediary in the sensor-to-cloud communications where pre-processing may be used to reduce the amount of data transferred to the cloud data center and to perform latency-sensitive operations. In this book chapter we address the problem of mapping sensors over the fog nodes with a twofold contribution. First, we introduce a formal model for the mapping model that aims to minimize response time considering both network latency and processing time. Second, we present an evolutionary-inspired heuristic (using Genetic Algorithms) for a fast and accurate resolution of this problem. A thorough experimental evaluation, based on a realistic scenario, provides an insight on the nature of the problem, confirms the viability of the GAs to solve the problem, and evaluates the sensitivity of such heuristic with respect to its main parameters
