Improve IT Business Process Performance Using AI and Deep Learning
Perfection is an ambitious goal. However, it’s right to say that in-Service Management we aspire to do the best we possibly can. We improve our performance through practice, but for real acceleration, we need to take a fresh approach. “IT is the backbone of the modern enterprise”—if this is the case and we demand a consistently high level of performance from our IT staff now is the time to think about how best to achieve this. With the use of AI powered autonomous micro-learning coupled with machine learning, employees can now be evaluated and coached by providing instance learning and feedback in real time so as to improve process performance
A Rare Early Complication of Tracheostomy
A polytrauma patient on ventilator was admitted to ICU with open tracheostomy, GCS 8/15 and unequal pupils. After 10 days, he was weaned from the ventilator. The patient had respiratory problems i.e. expiratory stridor, shortness of breath, dysphonia and dyspnea on closing tracheostomy. It was diagnosed as a case of asthma, and the patient responded to salbutamol nebulization and intravenous steroid therapy. However, after some time, he desaturated and a plan for rapid sequence intubation was made. Endotracheal tube could not be negotiated beyond vocal cords, so an unprepared tracheostomy without proper equipment had to be immediately done by an anesthetist to save the patient’s life. CT scan revealed tracheal stenosis. This case demonstrates that patients with a short 15-days history of previous tracheostomy may have tracheal stenosis
Founding properties on non-ferrous liquid metals
ALTHOUGH the liquid state is the first step of all founding operations no fundamental measure is available
to evaluate the capacity of liquid metals to flow adeq-uately into intricate moulds. Whilst a consideration of viscosity & surface tension is natural in any discussion of the flow of liquid metals, it is not adequate to describe their founding characteristics.In this paper an attempt has been made to evolve a fundamental basis of viscosity and surface tension and their impact on casting fluidity
Modulation of impact of obesity in pathological and physiological cardiac hypertrophy by orlistat
High fat diet (30 % fat) was used to induce obesity in rats. Male wistar rats were kept at high
fat diet for 90 days and subjected to partial abdominal aortic constriction (PAAC) at 62nd day and continued
upto 90th day. Similarly rats were kept at high fat diet for 90 days and subjected to chronic swimming
training (CST) at 46th day and continued upto 90th day. Obesity was assessed by measuring body weight,
WHR ratio, obesity index and adiposity index. Cardiac hypertrophy was assessed by measuring left ventricular
weight, left ventricular weight to body weight, left ventricular wall thickness, cardiomyocyte diameter,
left ventricular protein content and left ventricular collagen content. Mean arterial blood pressure
(MABP) was also recorded. Oxidative stress was assessed in terms of thiobarbituric acid reactive species
(TBARS) level, superoxide anion generation level and reduced glutathione level in left ventricular tissue.
Obesity, cardiac hypertrophy and oxidative stress were increased in high fat diet groups. Orlistat, lipase
inhibitor, significantly attenuated the impact of obesity in experimental cardiac hypertrophy. Furthermore
orlistat significantly attenuated the oxidative stress. So it can be concluded that by decreasing the
impact of obesity, orlistat significantly attenuated the extent of cardiac hypertrophy.Colegio de Farmacéuticos de la Provincia de Buenos Aire
Single Valued Neutrosophic Signedgraphs
Motivated by the notion of single valued neutrosophic graphs defined by Broumi, Talea, Bakali and Smarandache[2] and notion of intuitionistic fuzzy signed graphs defined by Mishra and Pal[8], we introduce the concept of single valued neutrosophic signed graphs and examine the properties of this new concept and examples

Effect of sodium tungstate on obesity induced cardiac hypertrophy and oxidative stress
Obesity was induced by high fat diet (30 % fat by weight). Wistar rats of 225-250 g were kept
on high fat diet to induce obesity for 90 days. Sodium tungstate (2 mg/ml, in drinking water) was administered
for 90 days. Obesity was assessed by measuring % age change in body weight, WHR ratio, adiposity
index and obesity index. Left ventricular cardiac hypertrophy was assessed in terms of left ventricular
weight, left ventricular wall thickness, left ventricular protein content and left ventricular collagen content.
Oxidative stress was measured in terms of levels of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS),
superoxide anion generation (SAG) and level of reduced glutathione. Sodium tungstate significantly attenuated
the increase in body weight adiposity index, obesity index, TBARS, SAG and reduced glutathione,
whereas no significant change was observed the parameters of cardiac hypertrophy. So, it can be concluded
that sodium tungstate significantly attenuated high fat diet induced obesity and oxidative stress but no
significant decrease was observed in the parameters of cardiac hypertrophy.Colegio de Farmacéuticos de la Provincia de Buenos Aire
