LabVIEW based Virtual Instrument for Simulation of Doppler Blood Flow Velocimetry of Umbilical Artery
Abstract: Doppler blood flow velocimetry has become a routine practice for fetal surveillance in high-risk pregnancies. Doppler assessment of various fetal vascular beds helps in determining the relationship between fetal circulation and associated fetal conditions like hypoxia, brain-sparing effect and growth restriction. The umbilical artery, uterine artery and middle cerebral artery are three most studied vascular beds for fetal surveillance. In our research we are focused only on the umbilical artery …

Design of Novel Antiviral agents against Japanese Encephalitis virus NS3Helicase/NTPase Computational approach
Abstract: Pathogenic protozoa are commonly transmitted to food in developing countries, but food-borne outbreaks of infection are relatively rare in developed countries. The main protozoa of concern in developed countries are Toxoplasma, Cryptosporidium and Giardia, and these can be a problem in immune-compromised people. Other protozoa such as Entamoeba histolytica, Cyclosporacayetanensis and Sarcocystis can be a food-borne problem in non-industrialised countries. C. cayetanensis has emerged as a food-borne pathogen in foods …

Obstetric Risks and Complications for Pregnant Women with Epilepsy: A Review
Abstract: Although epilepsy is a prevalent neurological condition, pregnant women with epilepsy face additional problems. A woman's risk of preeclampsia/eclampsia increases if she has epilepsy, as do other obstetrical issues such as premature labour and delivery, foetal loss due to ectopic pregnancy, induced abortion, caesarean section, stillbirth, and low birth weight kids. Epileptic mothers' babies are particularly vulnerable to serious birth defects and long-term neurological problems. For pregnant women with epilepsy, …

Magnitude and Risk Factors of Ante-partum Hemorrhage in Lemlem Karl Hospital, Tigray, Northern Ethiopia
Abstract: Antepartum Hemorrhage (APH) is a grave obstetrical emergency. APH continues to be a major cause of maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality even in modern obstetrics. It is one of the most frequent emergencies. Vaginal bleeding in the third trimester complicates 2–5% of all pregnancies. It is considered an obstetric emergency because hemorrhage remains the most frequent cause of maternal and fetal deaths. It is a critical for the well-being …
