    Cancer screening is a means to detect cancer early with the goal of decreasing morbidity and mortality. At present, there is a reasonable consensus regarding screening for breast, cervical and colorectal cances and the role of screening is under trial in case of cancers of the lung,  ovaries and prostate. On the other hand, good screening tests are not available for some of the commonest cancers in India like the oral, pharyngeal, esophageal and stomach cancers

    Get PDF
    This paper discusses various multicast routing protocols which are proposed in the recent past each having its own unique characteristic, with a motive of providing a complete understanding of these multicast routing protocols and present the scope of future research in this field. Further, the paper specifically discusses the current development in the development of mesh based and hybrid multicasting routing protocols. The study of this paper addresses the solution of most difficult task in Multicast routing protocols for MANETs under host mobility which causes multi-hop routing which is even more severe with bandwidth limitations. The Multicast routing plays a substantial part in MANETs

    Big Data has got more importance in various industries over the last couple of years, which is applied on various huge and large data sets because it cannot be stored and process through traditional databases. Big data has huge potential to store and process such huge and large datasets in several ways because, during processing, we are analyzing the large datasets in required time. Text analysis is still somewhat in its infancy but is very promising. Because in most of the companies 80% of data is in unstructured form, while most types of analysis only work with structured data. In this paper, we are discussing some visualization techniques available for Big data. Finally, R package is used to analyze unstructured text because R is freely available and it comes with lots of free packages and powerful tools through which we can easily analyze the large data sets in a sufficient time

    Get PDF
    Kasa /cough is one of the most common respiratory condition that afflict every human being at some point in their life. Ayurveda classics have described five types of Kasa. The mode of administration of Oushadha in this Vyadhi is told as Muhurmuhu i.e. frequent administration of medicine. Certain Oushadha Yogas when administered in this Kala may hamper the Agni and Ahara Kala. So, a Yoga which when administered once, act as a sustained release medicament, without hampering the Agni and Ahara Kala would fit the requirement for this way of administration. Such a dosage form that we could find in our classics was Lehya in the form of Candy. In this study, one such Yoga mentioned for Pittaja Kasa Chikitsa in Ashtanga Hridaya, containing Draksha, Pippali, Sharkara was modified into the form of candy. Prepared candies served the purpose of providing sustained release of medicine, repeated administration without altering the Agni and Ahara Kala and finally relief from Kasa. It can be concluded that modified dosage forms that do not adulterate the classical concepts, but are suitable for the current times is the need of hour. Ayurveda practitioners need to look into this aspect of Chikitsa and come up with such novel methods

    Get PDF
    Sneha Kalka is the by-product formed due to addition of Kalka and Drava Dravya to Sneha (oil or ghee) during Snehapaka which is considered as waste and discarded. Sneha Kalpana is a type of dosage form which is extensively used in clinical practice and prepared on large scale production leading to formation of huge quantity of Sneha Kalka. This study is an attempt to convert this Sneha Kalka into a new dosage form i.e., Granules. In this study, the Sneha Kalka of Ashwagandha Ghrita was converted into Ashwagandha Granules. The resultant product was highly palatable and can act as a substitute to expensive malt based health drink powders
