Implementing Policy Based Routing Technique and Providing Security In IPv6 Network

Many organizations are in a process to adopt IPv6 addressing scheme. In order to make the network more efficient Policy Based Routing technique is implemented and security is provided. Normally routing is done based on the destination address present in the routing table. While implementing PBR the packets are delivered to the destination in the path as specified by the network admin. Here, the PBR overwrites the normal routing procedures and these packets choose the path as directed by the network admin. The network can be made more efficient by providing security scheme to secure the packets from the hackers. This process will minimize the network collision and by implementing security schemes in IPv6 network, the IP packets are delivered securely and also take the path as desired by network administrator

Cord Blood Bilirubin as a Predictive Marker of Neonatal Hyperbilirubinemia in ABO and Rh Incompatible Babies: A Prospective study

INTRODUCTION: Hyperbilirubinemia is the most common clinical problem in the neonatal period requiring evaluation and treatment. It is also a common cause of readmission to the hospital. Although it is mostly due to physiological process, few newborns develop potentially high bilirubin value posing serious damage to the brain. Over the past few years, routine hospital stay for mothers and newborns has been reduced. This practice of early hospital discharge has led to increased rate of readmission to hospitals due to the conditions attributed by jaundice, which usually may not be evident in first 2-3 days of life. Thus early prediction of newborns at risk of NH is a good option. AIMS AND OBJECTIVE: Of the study is to predict the usefulness of cord blood bilirubin in identifying subsequent hyperbilirubinemia in ABO and Rh incompatible babies requiring therapeutic intervention so that early postpartum discharge of both mother and those newborns can be planned. METHODOLOGY: prospective study conducted over a period of 1 year. 100 healthy term neonates were selected based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Cord blood was collected at birth and sent for serum total bilirubin analysis. Babies were examined daily and looked for the evidence of jaundice. Serum blood was drawn at 72 hours of life for all babies. Blood for evaluation of total bilirubin was also drawn at less than 72 hours of life from babies who showed clinical evidence of jaundice. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: the UCSB level >2.3mg/dl was considered to predict the postnatal significant hyperbilirubinemia with sensitivity and specificity of 95.35% and 100% respectively suggesting that these high risk babies should be monitored very closely and frequently and warrants early discharge

Intelligent recognition of colorectal cancer combining application of computer-assisted diagnosis with deep learning approaches

The malignancy of the colorectal testing methods has been exposed triumph to decrease the occurrence and death rate; this cancer is the relatively sluggish rising and has an extremely peculiar to develop the premalignant lesions. Now, many patients are not going to colorectal cancer screening, and people who do, are able to diagnose existing tests and screening methods. The most important concept of this motivation for this research idea is to evaluate the recognized data from the immediately available colorectal cancer screening methods. The data provided to laboratory technologists is important in the formulation of appropriate recommendations that will reduce colorectal cancer. With all standard colon cancer tests can be recognized agitatedly, the treatment of colorectal cancer is more efficient. The intelligent computer assisted diagnosis (CAD) is the most powerful technique for recognition of colorectal cancer in recent advances. It is a lot to reduce the level of interference nature has contributed considerably to the advancement of the quality of cancer treatment. To enhance diagnostic accuracy intelligent CAD has a research always active, ongoing with the deep learning and machine learning approaches with the associated convolutional neural network (CNN) scheme

Incidence and Clinicopathological features of Neurocutaneous Disorders.

INTRODUCTION ; Neurocutaneous disorders are genetically determined disorders showing both cutaneous and neurologic involvement. The definition includes both hereditary and nonhereditary phenotypes but excludes acquired disorders. Either they follow the established Mendelian modes of inheritance or they represent lethal mutations surviving by mosaicism, or they belong to the group of chromosomal disorders. Some clinicians still use phacomatosis to categorize particular neurocutaneous diseases characterized by patchy lesions involving the skin and the nervous system. Unfortunately, this term has diminished rather than increased our understanding of these disorders because the group of phacomatoses has never been well defined. Today, this term should no longer be used for the classification of neurocutaneous diseases but may be applied, together with a specifying adjective, to some genetically determined diseases characterized by the presence of multiple nevi, such as phacomatosis pigmentovascularis. AIM OF THE STUDY : 1. To study the incidence of Neurocutaneous disorders in the outpatients attending the Department of Dermatology in Government General Hospital, Chennai, from July 2006 to September 2008. 2. To determine the age and sexwise distribution of Neurocutaneous disorders. 3. To study the clinical morphology and distribution of lesions. 4. To correlate the morphological lesions with the histopathological freatures. 5. To evaluate incidence of associated systemic abnormalities. 6. To determine the involvement in other family members. CONCLUSION 1. In the study of 109 cases of Neurocutaneous syndromes, Neurofibromatosis topped the list followed by Tuberous sclerosis complex. 2. NF – Type –I accounted for the maximum number of Neurofibromatosis. 3. The most common clinical sign in NF was CALM followed by mollusca fibrosa. 4. Axillary, inguinal, palmar and plantar freckling were the notable pigmentary changes in NF. 5. Lisch nodules accounted for 81.3% of the cases in NF. 6. Skeletal abnormalities in the form of kyphoscoliosis, local gigantism and facial asymmetry were reported. 7. One case of sarcoma complicating NF was observed. 8. A case of NF-II with multiple intracranial tumours in MRI was detected. 9. Tuberous sclerosis complex is the second most common neurocutaneous disorder. 10. Angiofibroma was observed in 100% cases followed by ash leaf macules (85%). 11. Few patients had sub-ependymal nodules and cortical tubers. 12. One patient with astrocytoma and one patient with renal angiomyolipoma were observed. 13. Classical features of XP were observed in a patient who also had cutaneous malignancies – BCC over the nose and SCC over the cheek. 14. Sturge – Weber syndrome with unilateral port wine stain with seizures was reported in our study. 15. One case of unilateral naevus comedonicus was reported. 16. Two cases of Waardenburg syndrome ( mother and child ) was observed in our study. Both had white forelock, heterochromia iridis and deafness. 17. Two cases of epidermal naevus syndrome with extensive involvement and seizures were noted. 18. Two cases of giant congential melanocytic naevus were reported. 19. A case of Elejalde syndrome with typical clinical manifestations was observed. 20. One case of oculocutaneous albinism was reported. 21. One case of Adams Oliver syndrome with Dandy Walker malformation has been reported

Bilateral superficial ulnar artery with high origin from the axillary artery: its anatomy and clinical significance

The superficial ulnar artery (SUA) is a rare anatomical variant that usually arises either in the axilla or the arm and runs a superficial course in the forearm, enters the hand, and participates in the formation of superficial palmar arch. During the routine dissection of cadavers in the department of anatomy, whilst preparing the specimen for medical students, an unusual bilateral branch of the axillary artery was found in one of the cadavers: a rare variant of the artery known as SUA, which originates from the 2nd part of the axillary arteries of both sides. The SUA is a known anatomical variant, but the bilateral high origin from the 2nd part of the axillary artery is extremely unusual. Its occurrence is of great clinical importance to the surgical and radiological departments

SSN_NLP@SardiStance : Stance Detection from Italian Tweets using RNN and Transformers

Stance detection refers to the detection of one’s opinion about the target from their statements. The aim of sardistance task is to classify the Italian tweets into classes of favor, against or no feeling towards the target. The task has two sub-tasks : in Task A, the classification has to be done by considering only the textual meaning whereas in Task B the tweets must be classified by considering the contextual information along with the textual meaning. We have presented our solution to detect the stance utilizing only the textual meaning (Task A) using encoder-decoder model and transformers. Among these two approaches, simple transformers have performed better than the encoder-decoder model with an average F1-score of 0.4707

Proposed classification for interproximal contacts of primary molars using CBCT: a pilot study [version 2; referees: 2 approved]

Background: Interproximal contact areas in primary teeth are known to be broader, flatter, and situated more gingivally than in permanent teeth. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the different types of intact interproximal contact areas in primary teeth using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) among children. Methods: A cross-sectional study was designed with 74 contacts from 28 existing CBCT images of children aged between 3 and 14 years, obtained from the Indian Dental Education Academy, Chennai, India. The shape of the contact area was observed at three levels, the coronal, middle, and apical thirds, in three different sections of CBCT. Prevalence of the types of contact areas was expressed in the form of numbers and percentages. Results: The weighted Cohen’s kappa values for inter-examiner reliability was 0.893 at baseline. Results exhibited four different types of contact areas between the primary molars, namely, O type, X type, I type, and S type, based on the shapes observed; hence, the proposed classification is referred to as OXIS. The most common pattern seen was I (66.2%), followed by X (21.6%), O (9.4%) and the least common was S (2.7%). Conclusion: The three-dimensional evaluation of intact interproximal contact areas between primary molars are of four types, O,X, I and S
