 Abstract

Background Coronavirus or COVID-19 is a highly infectious diseases which was first reported in Hubei province of Wuhan city, China and subsequently spread to other countries of world. There were limited studies available in the database on risk of mortality was not well summarized. Current review of observational studies was done to summarize the findings on the association between age, gender, comorbidities and laboratory investigations and risk of death from COVID-19 infection. Methodology PubMed, PubMed Central, EMBASE, MEDLINE were searched for the studies in English language and date specified to after 2020. Results In total, 10 studies were included in this review. A total of 1469 patients included in Non-survivor group, while 22675 patients were included in survivor group. In meta-analysis, significant associations were found between Age (p-value <0.0001), comorbidities like Diabetes (p-value <0.00001), Hypertension (p-value 0.05), Cardiovascular diseases (p-value <0.00001) and risk of death from COVID 19. Additionally, it was also observed that those patients included in non-survivor had elevated levels of D-dimer (MD, -2.73, 95% CI, -5.73 to 0.28), CRP (MD, -66.10, 95% CI, -97.01 to -35.20), Interleukin-6 (MD, -4.70, 95% CI, -7.59 to -1.81), WBC count (MD, -3.88, 95% CI, -5.80 to -1.96) and decreased Albumin levels Albumin (MD, 3.98, 95% CI, 1.66 to 6.29) compared to survivor group. Conclusion Elder age more than 65 years, Hypertension, Diabetes, Cardiovascular diseases, elevated D-dimer, Interleukin-6, WBC count and CRP were mostly associated with mortality in patients with COVID-19. Keywords COVID-19, Mortality, D-dimer, Interleukin-6, CRP.

 Abstract

Synthesis of silver and gold nanoparticles from the biomedical plant, Rotula aquatica, using microwave irradiation is reported here. Confirmations of nanoparticles formation were executed using UV-vis. spectroscopy, identification of the functional groups in the plant chemicals responsible for reduction and capping of the nanoparticles were done by FTIR spectroscopy. Confirmation of crystalline character of the synthesized nanoparticles was conducted by XRD analysis. Investigation of catalytic activity of the synthesized nanoparticles on the degradation of the congo red dye. The antibacterial activities of the plant extract, silver and gold nanoparticles were performed in reference to a standard antibiotic by well diffusion pathway.

The key difference between traditional teaching techniques and new-age smart learning education is the use of tools and equal participation of teachers and students. Smart learning education system attempts at developing quick learning skills where teachers participate with students via learning tools and techniques. The present study reveals the awareness and attitudes of high school students of backward district Bellary in Karnataka State. The results says that the English medium students were got more awareness of smart class than that of Kannada medium students. This is because all most all English medium schools were providing opportunity to their student attained smart classes.

 Abstract

Alphonso is a mango cultivar that is considered by numerous individuals to be truly outstanding as far as pleasantness, lavishness and flavor. It has extensive timeframe of realistic usability of seven days after it is ready making it exportable. It is additionally quite possibly the most costly sorts of mango and is filled primarily in Kokan district of western India. It is in season April through May and the natural product weigh somewhere in the range of 150g and 300g each. Non circulated air through Mango drinks like Frooti (Parle Agro Co.), Jumpin (Godrej Industries Ltd), Maaza (Coca Cola Co.), Dukes Mangola and Slice (PepsiCo Inc.) are mainstream in India. Numerous other nearby brands are likewise accessible. Alphonso mangoes are generally traded from Ratnagiri and sindhudurg regions of Maharashtra. Here fundamental three mango drinks monsters Coca Cola, PepsiCo and Parle Agro showcased their mango drinks for example Maaza, Slice and Frooti separately. India's mango fixation may be similarly old as the organic product yet the business openings it is making for food handling area is something that has never occurred. While mango drink brands like Coca-Cola (Maaza), Pepsi (Slice), Dabur (Real Mango juice) and Parle Agro (Frooti) are advancing the classification with new promoting and publicizing efforts. New limits, driven by the mango squeeze and drink section, are being added even as the business combines itself. The all out homegrown handling limit with regards to the ruler of organic products has gone up ordinarily in the previous two years and now is assessed at 15,000 tons for each day during the season. The interest for prepared Indian mango items is developing by about 25% in both the homegrown and the fare markets. The coordinated refreshment market in India is administered by mango juices, nectars and beverages that have about 85% of the piece of the overall industry; around 38 million instances of mango-based beverages are devoured by Indians consistently. Also Coca-Cola, whose item 'Maaza' is said to have over 35% piece of the pie for mango drinks in India. The interest for this mango all over India is anomalous. Anyone can't estimate the specific interest and development of this mango drinks looking at on market. India is the world's biggest mango maker, representing more than 50% of the world's yield in 2019.

 Abstract

. Abstract Nanoparticles are very small particles that have at least one of their dimensions less than 100nm and have distinctive physical and chemical properties. Due to the fast development and widespread use of various engineered nanoparticles in different fields of science, there is a need for understanding their toxic effects on the growth, development, and physiology of non-targeted organisms. Nanoparticles are very commonly used in the field of pest management of insects. In insects, nanoparticles lead to DNA damage, cell death, oxidative strain, genotoxicity, and neurotoxicity. Oxidative strain is one of the most fundamental causes of nanoparticles persuaded toxicity in insects. Although the studies on the toxic effects of nanoparticles on insects are very few, there is a great need to evaluate their harmful effect on insect species as insects are a very diverse group of organisms and by evaluating the toxicity of nanoparticles on insects, provide a better understanding not only about invertebrate immune response but also about the human immune system as insect and human immune response exhibit several functional similarities. Moreover, as nanoparticles are very widely used in the field of pest management of insects, hence it is very important to determine their adverse effects on them. This review summarizes the current knowledge available on the toxic effects of nanoparticles on insects.
