 Abstract

Background: A clinical evaluation tool that is frequently used in clinical trials and daily practice to assess stroke-related neurological impairments is the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS). English-written, 15-point evaluation form intended to measure neurological deficits in patients with recent strokes. Aim and Objectives: To determine the reliability and validity of the NIHSS with the Gujarati and Indian adaptation of item 9 and 10.Methodology: In this study, NIHSS items 9 and 10 were modified and culturally adapted were performed according to the guidelines. G-NIHSS was applied by seven independent investigators on 30 patients with stroke. Inter-observer agreement and intra-class correlation coefficients were calculated. The predictive validity of the G-NIHSS was calculated using functional outcome after three months in the form of Barthel Index (BI). Result: The G-NIHSS content validity index reached between 0.83 to 1.The G-NIHSS has a significantly negative correlation with both Glasgow Coma Scale (r = - 0.824, p< 0.001), and BI(r = -0.683, p < 0.008) is significant for p <0.01. And the Pearson's rho= 0.800, (p<0.001) was correlation with the BI at 90 days was significantly Positive. The ICC for the overall score on the G-NIHSS was 1 (95% CI, 1.0-1.0). The reliability of the G-NIHSS is significant. The Cronbach's ? coefficient of 0.96 for the G-NIHSS was considerate reliable. Conclusion: The G-NIHSS is reliable and valid Scale for the clinical assessment of neurological deficit in Gujarati acute stroke patients.

 Abstract

Participation of women in the political field and in various decision-making bodies is an important tool for empowerment. The participation of women at all levels of governance structures is the highest need of this hour for women's actual empowerment. Women's political empowerment, usually viewed as political involvement in government or elections which is essential to give women a voice in the policies that affect their lives. Political participation of women in India has been neglected even since independence. Political system and decision making process in seen clearly in the changes incorporated in the Panchayati Raj Institution. The 73rd Constitutional Amendment in 1992 gave them not less than one-third reservations in the PRIs at all the levels. This has been enhanced to 50 percent in some of the states in the recent years. Women's participation has been increasing rapidly but it is not satisfactory. Empowerment in any sphere plays an important role in molding the social, economic, and political life of people in all communities. As such, empowerment is a universal phenomenon. Unfortunately, women, who constitute about half of the total population, did not enjoy any political rights in the past in any society. In the Indian context, the political participation of women and ultimately their political empowerment have gained a lot of prominence.

 Abstract

The project proposes a solar-powered cell phone charging system that operates on a coin-based payment method. With the widespread use of mobile phones for personal and business communication, providing a public charging service has become a necessity. While some people argue that this may not be a profitable business since most individuals can charge their phones at home, office, or in their vehicles, it remains essential for individuals who forget their charger or are on the go. This is especially true for students, commuters, and people attending conferences. The charging system can be installed in various locations such as hotels, conference centers, leisure centers, shopping malls, internet cafes, colleges, airports, train terminals, etc., to cater to the needs of mobile phone users who require a quick recharge for a nominal fee of one rupee. The system is designed using a Raspberry Pi, which facilitates the countdown timings for a specified period while displaying the remaining time on an LCD screen. The system is equipped with a detector sensor and an LDR (Light Dependent Resistor) that enables solar tracking. This solar tracking system helps to optimize the charging efficiency of the system by continuously adjusting the solar panel to face the direction of maximum sunlight. Additionally, a relay output is latched during the timing period, indicating that the charging process is in progress.

 Abstract

In all major surgeries, providing a painfree procedure and giving the patient a correct amount of anaesthetic are vital. Failure to provide the patient an accurate dose could result in negative side effects and surgical problems. The full dosage of anesthesia cannot be given to the patient in a single dose in cases of lengthy surgeries since it could result in fatal complications. Less anesthesia is given, which causes the patient to awaken during the procedure.Providing a precise amount of anesthetic at regular periods is difficult for the anesthesiologist. To get through these challenges a computer-controlled anesthesia device is created to provide a precise amount of anesthetic at regular intervals with steady speed.As a result, the objective of this project is to implement a labview-based automatic control system.

 Abstract

The Dalit Movement in Telangana has a long history, dating back to the pre-Independence era. Dalits, also known as Scheduled Castes, have been marginalized and discriminated against in various aspects of life, including education, employment, and social status. The movement seeks to address these inequalities and create a more just and equal society. The movement gained momentum in the 1980s with the formation of various Dalit organizations and political parties, including the Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) and the Republican Party of India (RPI). These organizations focused on raising awareness about Dalit issues, organizing protests, and advocating for policies that would benefit Dalits. One of the major achievements of the Dalit movement in Telangana is the implementation of reservations for Dalits in education and employment. This has helped to increase the representation of Dalits in various fields and improve their socio-economic status. However, the movement continues to face challenges, including opposition from dominant caste groups and political parties, lack of adequate representation in decision-making bodies, and the persistence of caste-based discrimination and violence. Despite these challenges, the Dalit movement in Telangana remains a strong force for social justice and equality

 Abstract

Ever since the first cases of COVID-19 was reported in late December 2019 to early January 2020, protocols and regulations have been put in place to mitigate the spread of the virus. With protocols in place, this study aimed to investigate the level of adherence of senior high school students to COVID-19 safety protocols. Utilizing a quantitative descriptive research design, snowball sampling technique, and a survey questionnaire, 223 senior high school students answered the survey containing 15 COVID-19 safety protocols most commonly enforced upon schools extracted from the guidelines prepared by the World Health Organization (WHO), Ministry of Public Health (MPH), Ministry of Education and Higher Education (MOEHE), and Philippine School Doha. The results show that the female respondents highly adhered to COVID-19 safety protocols while male respondents moderately adhered. More so, the grade 11 respondents highly adhered to the COVID-19 safety protocols while the grade 12 respondents only moderately adhered. Lastly, the HUMSS Strand highly adhered to the COVID-19 safety protocols, followed by the ABM, STEM, and GAS strands respectively all with moderate adherence to COVID-19 safety protocols

 Abstract

The impact of Child Sexual Abuse has long-term and short-term effects on Adult Survivors especially Women Survivors. Adults who have experienced Sexual Abuse in their childhood are referred to as "survivors" of Child Sexual Abuse. The terminology "survivor" indicates the strength of the individual to survive such a traumatic event in life. The present study aims to explore some of the major components such as Stress Coping Skills and Subjective Well-Being of the Women Survivors of Child Sexual Abuse and the relationship between these components. These components were considered to play a major role in the psychological well-being of the individual. To achieve the purpose of the study, 100 women Survivors of Child Sexual Abuse were selected from Chennai City by using convenient sampling technique. Subjective Well-Being Scale developed by National Institute of Mental Health and Neuro Sciences (NIMHANS), Bangalore was used to measure the level of Subjective Well-Being. Stress Coping Scale developed by NIMHANS was used to measure the level of Stress Coping Skills, Problem focused and Emotional focused Stress Coping Strategies. An Interview Schedule was designed to collect the Demographic Profile and details about the experience of Sexual Abuse. The data collected using these tools were statistically analysed by t-test, correlation and ANOVA using SPSS software version 21. The results of the study revealed that the Women Survivors who were educated and working had better Subjective Well-Being than those who were less educated or illiterate and not working. Also Women Survivors who had better Stress Coping Strategies exhibited better Subjective Well-Being which indicated positive significant correlation between Subjective Well-Being and Stress Coping Skills. The study also suggested that there is a strong requirement for more empathetic understanding and therapeutic intervention for the psychological problems which these survivors are facing.

 Abstract

Monkeypox is caused by the Zoonotic Orthopoxvirus, which is related to both cowpox and smallpox and is a member of the Poxviridae family. (a member of the genus Orthopoxvirus). It is mostly spread by primates and rodents, but human-to-human transfer is also prevalent. Although the Monkeypox virus is not as lethal or infectious as COVID-19, new instances are recorded on a daily basis from all over the globe. As a result, it will come as no surprise if the world experiences another global epidemic due to a dearth of effective preventative measures. As a consequence, because the Monkeypox-related disease infected human skin, an image of the diseased skin can be recorded and used to further diagnosis the illness. We use the "Monkeypox2022" dataset, which is open source and can be obtained from the GitHub repository. Data collection and data enhancement techniques will be used. Deep Convolution Neural Network and VGG-16 is the method we are employing. Our concept is simple to execute because it is both cost-effective and time effective. There is no need for extensive PCR or microscopy work. As a result, our proposed model could be used to evaluate real-time monitoring of people for Monkeypox pox symptoms. In this case, we want to assess temporal complexity, sensitivity, and true positive rate, as well as accuracy.
