    Due to the limitation of energy and network lifetime, the routing protocols of wireless sensor network (WSN) must minimize energy consumption and thus extend the network lifetime. Systematic packet forwarding approach is the genuine classical routing protocol in WSN. A heterogeneous characteristics is introduced whileforwarding packet to the next node. During data transmission, we are using cooperative category routing to communicate with the sink node, so that it can utilize energy more effectively and evenly. By analysing the disadvantage of previous routing approach, this paper proposes an improved Systematic packet forwarding approach. The improved routing system can reduce energy consumption and thus prolong the network lifetime. In order to provide energy reduction concept to the improved routing system , this paper introduces energy pool it acts as a mediator for to control overall energy required for communication

    SAODV versus TAODV Technique using MANET routing Security

    Recent technology SAODV (Secure ADHOC on Demand Distance Vector) uses Cryptography to send the data from one node to another. The problem with SAODV is, it is required to enter the 8-bit security key to send and receive data. If the number of present in the network are more, the SAODV protocol fails to deliver the data in time as the 8-bit security key has to be entered again and again. Therefore this demands a study where we are designing a Protocol TAODV in which all the nodes present in the network should get registered. The use of 8-bit security key is not required as in our study we are designing a Trusted Centre which provides security for the nodes connected to it

    Naïve Bayes Model for Analysis of Voting Rate Failure in Election System

    These days several exercises are striking the engineering perspectives on non-engineering domain and it is major challenging too for the engineering community. One such non-engineering domain is prediction of the results in election system. So many factors like literacy, rainfall, population and so on may affect the results in election systems. Certainly there are some parameters which are relatively dependent on each other. In this connection, this paper tried to design a probabilistic model to analyze failure voting rates in election system by involving one of the strongest baye’s model called as Naïve Bayes Model

    Objective: The main aim of our research was to develop an Antifungal cream formulation consisting of Chlorphenesin for the treatment of Fungal infections. Topical route is the most suitable route for skin infections. Methods: The development of topical drug delivery systems designed to have systemic effects appears to be beneficial for a number of drugs on account of several advantages over conventional dosage forms(or) routes of drug administration. An Antifungal cream formulation consisting of Chlorphenesin was prepared. Results: The formulation was subjected to in vitro diffusion studies. Microbiological studies were performed to find out the safety of materials used in the formulation. Conclusion: The developed cream consisting of Cholrphnesin was found to be safe and effective for the treatment of fungal infection

    A nonradioactive restriction enzyme-mediated assay to detect DNA repair by Fe(II)/2-oxoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase

    The Escherichia coli DNA repair enzyme AlkB belongs to the Fe(II)/2-oxoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase family. It removes methyl groups from 1-methyl adenine (1-meA) and 3-methyl cytosine (3-meC) lesions present in single-stranded DNA by oxidative decarboxylation. In the current article, we describe an in vitro assay that permits rapid detection of AlkB activity. To achieve this, we generated methylated oligonucleotide using methyl methanesulfonate and then monitored DNA repair using a methylation-sensitive restriction enzyme and novel agarose gel electrophoresis system capable of resolving small oligonucleotides. Our approach overcomes several drawbacks of NAD+-dependent formaldehyde dehydrogenase-coupled assay and radioisotope-based assay for determining AlkB DNA repair activity

    Pattern of Injuries among Two or Four Wheeler Occupants in Fatal Road Traffic Injuries

    Background: Every day, we read, listen, or witness, injuries in our day to day lives. Over time, it has moved from 5th to 3rd to 1st page of our newspapers. Some days, it is not uncommon to see the entire page of our newspaper filled with news about injury and violence. On television channels, even on prime time, injury and violence has occupied the center stage. Many times, the ‘breaking news’ is only deaths due to road crashes, suicides, mass burns and blood loaded violence. The present study is aimed at analyzing the various types of injuries that occur in road traffic injuries and to take necessary actions by the concerned authority to prevent such incidents in the future.Methods: In this study, we studied the various patterns of injuries sustained by the occupants of two/four wheeler during fatal road traffic injuries. A total number of 238 cases (those who died in road traffic injuries) were included in the study for a period of 2 years from October 2010 to September 2012 in Department of Forensic Medicine and Toxicology, Bangalore Medical College and Research Institute, Bengaluru.Results: Among the cases studied in our study (n=238), majority of the victims were males constituting 94% of the cases and in age-wise distribution of cases, age group of 21-30 years (46.2%) followed by 31-40 years (21.4%) constitutes to about 2/3rd of the cases. Time of injury among the cases studied showed that highest incidence being during the night times (18:01-00:00) which constitutes 44.11%. Among the road user category, two wheeler riders (78.15%) formed the major contributors for road traffic injury.Conclusion: In the present study, it is very clear that the middle aged, male bike riders are more prone for fatal road traffic injuries. Hence, Government should take proper initiatives in the future to focus on these high risk individuals to prevent such fatalities.

    Probable autoimmune causal relationship between periodontitis and Hashimotos thyroidits: A systemic review

    Get PDF
    Periodontitis is a multifactorial disease with microbial dental plaque as the initiator of periodontal disease. However, the manifestation and progression of the disease is influenced by a wide variety of determinants and factors. The strongest type of causal relationship is the association of systemic and periodontal disease. Hashimotos thyroiditis has also been considered as one of the causes of periodontal disease. As a matter of fact, on an autoimmune basis, in Hashimotos disease and periodontal disease, we have made an attempt to derive the common mechanisms, with an evidence base. The need for this kind of review was due to the fact that the outcome of periodontal therapy did not give the expected results in patients with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis. Hence, a possible link between Hashimotos thyroiditis and periodontitis was considered

A total of 2,405 records were published over a period of ten years and have received 24,456 citations. The indicators used for the study are: the Degree of Collaboration; Collaborative Coefficient; Collaboration Index; Authorship & co-authorship pattern; various types of Collaboration patterns like: Institutional, National and International Collaboration; collaboration with other types of Institutions in India; most preferred collaborative Institutes and Countries etc. The findings of the study indicate that the NITK Surathkal has a tendency towards collaborated publications, but higher proclivity towards collaborations within the institutional authors. Publications with international collaboration have received the maximum average citations per paper compared with Institutional and national collaborations. The institute has the maximum number of collaborations with authors from colleges; MAHE Manipal was the most collaborative institute and Malaysia was the most preferred collaborating country during the period of study
