Obesity, Unhygienic condition, prolong sitting, Repeated irritation due to hair, may increase the risk of occurrence of Fistula. In Ayurveda Fistula in ano is correlated with Bhagandara. Acharya Sushruta classified Bhagandara as five types.

A study on water conservation through atmospheric air extraction of water

In arid and semi-arid areas with little rainfall, access to fresh water is a significant challenge. A possible solution to this issue is the extraction of water from atmospheric air. In this paper, recent research on the removal of water from atmospheric air in arid regions is reviewed. The review discusses a variety of methods, including hybrid systems that combine condensation, absorption, and adsorption. Due to its simplicity and efficiency, condensation is the technology for atmospheric water collection that is most frequently utilised.

Study of 4-chlorophenoxyacetic acidadsorption on coconut shell biochar

The adsorption of 4-chlorophenoxyacetic acid (4-CPA) by coconut shell biochar (CSB) was investigated. The effect of sample solution pH was studied. The optimum solution pH value was1. This suggested that the strong interaction of 4-CPA with the CSB.Therefore, CSB, as a green, environmental-friendly adsorbent, can be applied to the adsorption of contaminants in environment.

Understanding the effects of the pandemic on food consumption becomes essential for industries, policymakers, researchers, and interested people. This paper investigates how the early stage of COVID-19 pandemic changed the consumption of dairy products in Brazil. Estimates show that the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on dairy consumption in Brazil are aligned with the most recent Brazilian food classification (NOVA).

Epidemiological analysis on tibial plateau fractures in patients treatment at a trauma hospital in the State of Rio de Janeiro

Tibial plateau fractures pose a risk to the functional integrity of the knee, in addition to having a wide variation in bone healing time, ranging from 10 weeks to 10 months, and having a high incidence of nonunion. Objectives: To analyze the epidemiological profile of tibial plateau fractures in patients treated at the orthopedics department of Hospital Geral de Nova Iguaçu. Methods: A retrospective, analytical and observational study was carried out at the General Hospital of Nova Iguaçu. Data were collected through the analysis of 70 medical records from July 2021 to July 2022.

Food supply chain traceability using hyperledger

With the advent of globalization, supply chain systems in all domains have become highly complex due to the ever-growing networking and change of approach towards automation which have at times been limited in traditional supply chains. One of the key aspects to be targeted in conventional methodologies is the centralized nature of the supply chain. Due to this factor, there is deterioration in the quality, contamination and tampering of the food product that is delivered to the end user.

Origin, distribution, taxonomy, botanical description, cytogenetics, genetic diversity and breeding of Okra (Abelmoschus esculentus (L.) Moench.)

Okra, (Abelmoschus esculentus), herbaceous hairy annual plant of the family Malvaceae. Okra originated somewhere around the Ethiopia, and was cultivated by the ancient Egyptians by the 12th century B.C. Its cultivation spread throughout Middle East and North Africa. There are two hypotheses concerning the geographical origin of A. esculentus. Some authors argue that one putative ancestor (A.tuberculatus) is native to Uttar Pradesh in northern India, suggesting that the species originated from this geographic area.

Avaliação da assistência domiciliar desempenhadapor cuidadores formais e informais para pacientes em terapia nutricional enteral

O uso de terapia nutricional enteral domiciliar é uma estratégia de intervenção nutricional com o intuito de aumentar a qualidade de vida dos indivíduos dependentes da sonda, porém nem sempre gera o resultado esperado, devido a intercorrências durante a assistência domiciliar. O projeto propõe a análise das técnicas desempenhadas em relação à administração e manipulação das dietas, e as estratégias e comportamentos doscuidadores durante a TNED.
