 Abstract

The present study deals with the stree shakti groups in Karnataka, Stree Shakthi Groups (SSGs) are formed at the village level to inculcate the savings habit in the members empowering the women economically. About 15 to 20 women members who are from below poverty line families, landless agricultural labourers. The aim of the present paper is reviewing the growth and commenting on the present status of the government sponsored SHGs in Karnataka. The data is compiled from the Statistical Abstracts of Karnataka and Karnataka at a Glance for various years. The data is analyzed using simple statistical tools like growth rates, percentage shares, and ratios. Principal component analysis is employed to construct composite indices of SHG development. The state had formed 1.40 lakh SSGs with a membership of more than 20 lakh women members, the coverage of members was hardly 14% of the eligible population in the state.

 Abstract

The speech signal conduct information about the identity of the speaker. The area of speaker information cares with extract the identity of the person express the utterance. The utility of automatically identifying a speaker is predicated solely on vocal characteristic. This emphasizes on text dependent talker identification, which deals with detecting a specific speaker from a known region. System identifies the user by comparing the code book of speech utterance with those of the stored within the database and lists, which contain the foremost likely speakers, could have given that speech utterance. The speech signal is recorded for number of speakers further the features are extracted. Feature extraction is completed by means of LPC coefficients, calculating AMDF, and DFT. The neural network is train by applying these features as input parameters. The train network corresponds to the output, the input is that the extracted features of the speaker to be identified. The network does the weight adapting and the best match is found to identify the speaker of the region.

 Abstract

The Rights of Persons with Disabilities (RPWD) Act is enacted from 15 June 2017. The Act has many guidelines, and for persons with disabilities in India, its introduction will be a huge improvement. After three and a half years of implementation by the Government of India, this article aims to look at the functioning of the Act. There is a need to do more on the part of the government, even though the RPWD Act is fine, only if this is applied in its true sense can the same be secured. Just by passing a rule, equal opportunities for all will not be accomplished. In providing those opportunities, the entire community needs to contribute.

 Abstract

Background: Ca breast is the most common malignancy among women in the world. The receptor status of breast cancer including ER, PR and HER-2 Neu play a crucial role in planning the management of the disease. Aims: Assessment of the hormone receptor (ER, PR and HER-2-Neu) expression in carcinoma breast is the primary aim and comparison of receptors with clinicopathological parameters: Age, histological type, grade of tumor and lymph node metastasis is also being focused in this study. Methods: All the patients of breast cancer with known hormone receptors status were included in the study from Nov.2018-Oct.2019. Results: Amongst 90 cases, 84.4% belong to invasive carcinoma of no special type (NST). The percentage of ER, PR and Her-2 Neu expression were 57.7%, 37.7%and 25.5% respectively. Mean age for HER-2Neu (+) and Her-2 Neu (-) were 53.4 and 52.04 respectively. Mean age for ER + and ER- were 56.42 and 47.56 respectively. Mean age for PR+ and PR- were 53.6 and 54.29 respectively. Patients with ER+, PR+ usually have lower grade1 tumor whereas patients with HER-2 Neu expression presented with higher grade tumor. There was an inverse relationship between ER, PR expression and HER-2 Neu expression (p-value<0.05). There was significant association between lymph node metastasis and Her-2 Neu and PR positivity. Conclusion: ER and PR expression were inversely related to Her-2 Neu receptor expression. Elder patients (age>45 years) have more ER and PR positivity than younger patients (age<45 years). Her-2 Neu expression is associated with higher tumor grade (Grade 2 and 3) and probability of metastasis to the axilla is more in cases with HER-2 Neu overexpression .

 Abstract

In a modern technology the vehicle tracking system is designed and implemented for tracking the movement of any equipped vehicle from any location at any time. This device system made good use of a popular technology that combines a Smartphone application with a micro controller. This will be easy to make and also the cost is inexpensive compared to others. The designed device in vehicle device works using Global system for mobile communication, General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) technology that is one of the most common ways for vehicle tracking. The vehicle tracking system IS uses the GPS module to get Latitude and Longitude coordinates at regular time of intervals. The GSM/GPRS module is used to transmit the vehicle and update the vehicle location to a database. A Smartphone application is also developed for continuously monitoring the vehicle location in any place.

 Abstract

Background: An analgesic regimen is required which meets the goal of providing safe and effective postoperative analgesia for the mother, simultaneously ensuring minimal side effects for both the mother and neonate after Caesarean section. Objective: This prospective study was undertaken to observe the Degree of postoperative pain relief via Visual Analogue Score (VAS) {time frame: 48 hours}, Duration of postoperative analgesia and Time of request for first rescue analgesia and total consumption of rescue analgesia in first 48 hours. Methods: we observed 100 patients over a period of twenty months who had received either TAP block or QL Block. The patients enrolled in the study were clinically assessed, evaluated and investigated as per the normal hospital protocol and proforma. The patients who had received TAP block were assigned group A and the patients who had received QL block were assigned group B. Group A: This group consisted of the patients who had received ultrasound guided TAP block with 20 ml of 0.2% ropivacaine. Group B: This group consisted of the patients who had received ultrasound guided QL block with 20 ml of 0.2% ropivacaine. Results: In our study, the mean duration of analgesia for Ultrasound guided transversus abdominis plane block was 8.5 hours and for Quadratus Lumborum Block it was 16.5 hours. Total dose of rescue analgesia consumption was greatly reduced in QLB (group B) compared to TAPB (group A). The difference was statistically significant (p<0.05). No systemic complications were reported from either of the two groups. Conclusion: From the present study it can be concluded that Ultrasound Guided nerve blocks (TAP block and QL block) can be used as a part of multimodal analgesia for better postoperative pain relief in lower abdominal surgeries like LSCS especially when given before the resolution of spinal anaesthesia. As QLB provides good quality analgesia for longer duration without side effects but proper understanding of the sono-anatomy and technical aspects of quadratuslumborum block are essential for its effective and safe use.
