Effect of Deck-Pylon Connection in Extradosed Bridges
Abstract: An extradosed bridge is characterized by very less values of the ratio of pylon height to main span of cablestayed bridges. The obvious advantages of extradosed bridges with span length less than 250 m compel to studyvarious parameters in detail. In the present paper, an attempt has been made to study the effects of havingdifferent types of connections between pylon and deck girders. Effects of structural response such as pylonmoment, …

Comparative Analysis of a Lie Detector using Support Vector Machine, Naive Bayes, and Random Forest Algorithm with Speech to Text Conversion
Abstract: Lie detection, additionally known as deception detection, uses questioning techniques to determine truth and falsehood in response. Physiological responses like vital sign, blood pressure, heartbeat, and respiratory rate are used to discriminate between truth and lie. Once we lie, our blood pressure goes up, our heart beats quicker, we have a tendency to breathe faster (and our breathing slows once the lie has been told), and changes occur in our …

Physiological and Psychological Changes in Aging
Abstract: Aging is a normal process accompanied by a progressive alteration of the body’s homeostatic adaptive responses. It produces observable changes in structure and function and increases vulnerability to environmental stress and disease. Among the elderly population the dependency due to physical and mental disabilities is the major factors responsible for adverse quality of life and health care. Dementia, delirium, anxiety, depression including various cardiovascular functions rapidly deteriorates due to ageing …

The Contextual Effect of Vowels on Correct Production of Retroflex in Kannada Speaking Children with Speech Sound Disorder: A Case Study
Abstract: Contextual based interaction of speech sounds, coarticulation, is the main component of intelligible continuous speech. This interaction between speech sounds within and across the words is affected in children with speech sound disorders (SSD). Literature reports on certain contexts facilitating the production of different speech sounds. Thus, these contextual considerations are vital for the selection of target stimuli during articulation therapy for faster learning. As phonotactics and coarticulation are language …

Proper Case Selection to Ensure Judicious Use of Antimicrobial Agents in the Treatment of Periodontal Disease
Abstract: It is now well-known that dental plaque exists as a biofilm, and specific plaque bacteria such as A. actinomycetemcomitans and P. gingivalis are responsible for the initiation and progression of periodontitis. Plaque bacteria within the biofilm are partially protected from antibiotics and host immune reactions. The strategy of periodontal treatment should include a break-up of the biofilm and subsequent elimination of periodontal pathogens. Plaque biofilms cannot be eliminated by daily …

Immunomodulation in Viral Infections
Abstract: Several studies conducted over a period of two decades established that hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenocortical axis is activated during systemic viral diseases. Modulation of the Th1/Th2 balance may affect the susceptibility to or the course of infections. Reduction of T and B lymphocytes are reported during influenza virus infection. This modulation leads to limited immune response. The brain areas involved in the regulation of hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenocortical axis are affected during viral infection. Human immunodeficiency …
