A Study to Find the Relation Between School Bag Weight and Musculoskeletal Discomfort in School Going Children
Abstract: Background: School bags are one of the several forms of manual load carriage used by school children. Carrying school bags that exceed 10% of body weight can lead to heightened energy expenditure, causing increased forward lean of the neck and trunk, reduced lung capacity, and elevated cardio-respiratory measures. Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) are characterized by injuries or disorders affecting muscles, tendons, ligaments, cartilage, or spinal discs, as diagnosed by healthcare providers, …

Pulmonary Function Status in Underweight Adults: A Literature Review
Abstract: Pulmonary functions are generally determined by respiratory muscle strength, compliance of the lung, thoracic cavity, airway resistance and elastic recoil of the lungs. Vital capacity depends on age, sex, height, mass, activity status and ethnicity. Underweight status represents depleted body fat and lean tissue stores. Recent researches, meta analysis and clinical oriented literatures were taken in the study to establish evidence-based efficacy of pulmonary function status in underweight young adults. …

Lung Function Decline Among Brick Kiln Workers in Haryana Due to Chronic Particulate Matter Exposure
Abstract: In Haryana, India, brick kiln workers are subjected to high levels of Particulate Matter (PM) which has been shown to deteriorate respiratory health. This study looks into the effect sustained exposure to particulate pollution has on lung function among workers in the brick kilns. The objective of the study was to assess the impact of chronic exposure to particulate matter on lung function among brick kiln workers in Haryana. A …

Axial Load Carrying Capacity of RCC Column Jacketed with Steel Angels and Steel Strips
Abstract: An The Purpose of this research is to study & analyze the existing structures of Factory shed which is almost 32 years old which is deteriorated and not in working from 20 years. Due to non-working condition of factory shed, steel truss and other structural parts are not maintained time to time as results the structural members are corroded and RCC members are deteriorated. Hence the existing column is retrofitted …

Protective Role of Sulforaphane against Multiorgan Toxicity in Rats: An In-vivo and In-vitro Review Study
Abstract: Sulforaphane [1-isothiocyanate-(4R) -(methylsulfinyl) butane] is a natural dietary isothiocyanate produced by the enzymatic accomplishment of the myrosinase on glucopharanin, a 4-methylsulfinylbutyl glucosinolate contained in cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli, brussel sprouts, and cabbage. Exploring of this compound against various oxidative degenerative diseases such as hepatic, nephro and cardiac diseases is growing because of its anticarcinogenic and cytoprotective properties. In several invivo and invitro experimental paradigms proved SFN and its compounds …

Pneumonia Detection and Classification Using Deep Learning
Abstract: Pneumonia, an infectious lung disease primarily caused by bacteria, often exacerbated by environmental factors, leads to the accumulation of pus in the lung’s alveoli. Accurate diagnosis through chest X-rays, ultrasounds, or lung biopsies is crucial to avoid misdiagnosis and ensure proper treatment, crucial for patients’ quality of life. Diagnostic capacities have been greatly improved by deep learning advances, especially with convolutional neural networks (CNNs). This research presents a robust CNN-based …

Pulmonary Effects of Cement Exposure in Construction Workers Correlating Lung Function Parameters with Workplace Hygiene
Abstract: Construction workers are routinely exposed to cement dust, a recognized occupational hazard known to adversely affect respiratory health. This study investigates the pulmonary effects of cement exposure in construction workers by evaluating lung function parameters and examining the role of workplace hygiene practices. A cross-sectional analysis was conducted on a sample of construction workers with varying durations of exposure to cement dust. Spirometric assessments, including forced vital capacity (FVC), forced …

Menstrual Blood Banking: A Future Need and Scope
Abstract: Stem cells abundant in menstrual blood possess the capacity to develop and differentiate into various cell types. The regenerative capacity of these stem cells derived from menstrual blood is comparable to that observed in stem cells present in umbilical cord blood and bone marrow. Every healthy woman experiences menstruation on average once every 28 to 30 days from the time of menstruation till menopausal. Menstrual blood banking involves storing menstrual …

Effectiveness of Abdominal Muscle Exercise in Improving Peak Expiratory Flow in Normal Individuals
Abstract: In health the human cardiopulmonary system has enormous reserve capacity to cope with the demands of exercise (or) illness. Expiration is usually normally a passive process with active muscle contraction being used during more forceful activities such as cough (or) sneezing. The abdominal muscles are the major muscle of the diaphragm. So it improves the efficiency of expiration. The objective is that the person with partial (or) complete weakness of …
