Mobile Tower Exposure affects on memory and Motor Co-ordination on Mice

Mobile is now become as an integral part of our daily life and mobile users have been increasing day by day globally. In India, mobile base stations and their installation are irregular and unregulated. Result from STM (Short term memory) and LTM (Long term memory) test, sowed significant change in Mobile Tower Radiation Treated Mice (MTRTM) as compared with without MTR treated mice. The numbers of mistakes done by MTR-TM group of mice were higher than the control. After measuring the muscular strength by using rotating hanging wire test, the result revealed that calculated time of fall from wire and compare this time with control and radiated set of mouse. Three trials were done with same set of mouse at one week intervals. In all the three trials, the average difference between control and radiated mice for muscular strength was significant (p < 0.05). Path movement was more random in MTR-TM and also observed less activity than without treated control mice

Coronary angiographic profile characteristics in young patients with acute coronary syndrome and comparison with older patients with acute coronary syndrome

Background: CAD is a major cause of death worldwide. Indians are prone as a community to CAD at much younger age. This study examined the coronary angiographic profile characteristic in young (60 year).Methods: 192 patients with ACS aged less than 40 year and 200 patients with ACS aged more than 60 year were included in this study. Coronary angiographic profile characteristics were evaluated in young ACS patients and compared with that in older patients.Results: Young ACS patients often had angiographically normal coronary arteries, nonobstructive disease and single vessel disease than older patients (p value<0.05).Conclusions: Angiographically normal coronary arteries, nonobstructive disease, single vessel disease are more frequent in younger patients

Measurement of the Higgs boson production rate in association with top quarks in final states with electrons, muons, and hadronically decaying tau leptons at s√=13TeV

The rate for Higgs (H) bosons production in association with either one (tH) or two (tt¯H) top quarks is measured in final states containing multiple electrons, muons, or tau leptons decaying to hadrons and a neutrino, using proton–proton collisions recorded at a center-of-mass energy of 13TeV by the CMS experiment. The analyzed data correspond to an integrated luminosity of 137fb−1. The analysis is aimed at events that contain H→WW, H→ττ, or H→ZZ decays and each of the top quark(s) decays either to lepton+jets or all-jet channels. Sensitivity to signal is maximized by including ten signatures in the analysis, depending on the lepton multiplicity. The separation among tH, tt¯H, and the backgrounds is enhanced through machine-learning techniques and matrix-element methods. The measured production rates for the tt¯H and tH signals correspond to 0.92±0.19(stat)+0.17−0.13(syst) and 5.7±2.7(stat)±3.0(syst) of their respective standard model (SM) expectations. The corresponding observed (expected) significance amounts to 4.7 (5.2) standard deviations for tt¯H, and to 1.4 (0.3) for tH production. Assuming that the Higgs boson coupling to the tau lepton is equal in strength to its expectation in the SM, the coupling yt of the Higgs boson to the top quark divided by its SM expectation, κt=yt/ySMt, is constrained to be within −0.9<κt<−0.7 or 0.7<κt<1.1, at 95% confidence level. This result is the most sensitive measurement of the tt¯H production rate to date.SCOAP

Surface wettability of an atomically heterogeneous system and the resulting intermolecular forces

We present the effect of 0.5 keV Ar+ beam irradiation on the wetting properties of metallic thin films. Observations reveal a transition from hydrophilic to hydrophobic nature at higher beam fluences which can be attributed to a reduction in net surface free energy. In this low-energy regime, ion beams do not induce significant surface roughness and chemical heterogeneity. However, they cause implantation of atomic impurities in the near surface region of the target and thus form a heterogeneous system at atomic length scales. Interestingly, the presence of implanted Ar atoms in the near surface region modifies the dispersive intermolecular interaction near the surface but induces no chemical modification due to their inert nature. On this basis, we have developed a theoretical model consistent with the experimental observations that reproduces the effective Hamaker constant with a reasonable accuracy

Facile synthesis, structural evaluation, antimicrobial activity and synergistic effects of novel imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine based organoselenium compounds

A simple and efficient method has been described to synthesize the hitherto unknown imidazo[1,2-a] pyridine selenides (5a-1) by reaction of 2-chloroimidazo [1,2-a]pyridines with aryl/heteroaryl selenols, generated in situ by reduction of various diselenides with hypophosphorous acid. The crystal structures of 3-nitro-2-(phenylselanyl)-imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine (5a), 2-(mesitylselanyl)-3-nitro-imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine (5d) and 3-nitro-2-(pyridin-2-ylselanyl)-imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine (5e) were confirmed by X-ray crystallography and the DFT calculations were performed to determine various structural parameters which were correlated with the X-ray crystal structures. The synthesized compounds were subjected to antimicrobial evaluation and it was found that compounds 5a and 5j were active against gram negative bacterium Escherichia coli whereas compound 5e was active against different fungal strains. Time kill assay was performed to understand the microbial activity of synthesized organoselenium compounds and the toxicity of these compounds was evaluated against human cell lines. Synergistic effects of active compounds 5a and 5e were tested with existing antibiotic drugs which exhibited that the antibiotic combination with synthesized organoselenium compounds efficiently enhanced the antimicrobial activity.
