The adopted conceptual framework was based upon the Stress bucket model (2002) and\u0000represented in the Input-process-output model (1973). From government- aided school, convenience sample of 100 higher secondary students\u0000responded through paper-pencil test. The study ndings by using descriptive and inferential statistics revealed that 17% perceived high parental\u0000pressure and 68% perceived medium parental pressure; 22% students were extremely severe depressed, 35% were having extremely severe\u0000anxious and 11% were having extremely severe stress. Calculated 'r' of perceived parental pressure with three domain wise psychological problems\u0000i.e. depression/anxiety/stress were 0.553/0.495/0.582 respectively (moderate positive associations.) There are signicant associations between\u0000level of perceived parental pressure with father's educational status, mother's occupational status, number of siblings; all the three domain wise\u0000psychological problems were associated with father's occupational status and only anxiety domain with mother's educational status, mother's\u0000occupational status. Recommendations for future studies are large sample size, in different settings, comparative design, at least one intervention\u0000and evaluation.","PeriodicalId":14358,"journal":{"name":"International journal of scientific research","volume":"2008 23","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141027140","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It\u0000offers unique advantages in terms of safety, particularly in patients where exposure to radiation and contrast are of concern. Aims and objectives:\u0000The current study aims to evaluate the diagnostic value of SS-FSE and 3D-FSE techniques of MRU in identifying the varied etiology of obstructive\u0000uropathy (OU) and grading the level of obstruction. Materials and methods: A prospective cross-sectional study was conducted using\u0000demographic and clinical data of obstructive uropathy (OU) patients (n=30) who underwent Magnetic Resonance Urography (MRU) evaluation\u0000using SS-FSE and 3D-FSE sequences after informed consent was obtained. Individual case details documented included age, gender, complaint,\u0000location of lesion/obstruction, laterality, hydronephrosis grade, blood urea and serum creatinine, urinary pH, calcium, and oxalates levels.\u0000Statistical analysis of the data thus documented in a Microsoft Excel sheet was performed using Version 25 SPSS. Results: The study showed\u0000calculus obstruction as the leading cause of uropathy in the study population (76.7%, n=23 out of 30 patients) with distal ureter being the most\u0000commonly obstructed (39%, n=9 out of 23 patients). Our analysis revealed the overall diagnostic accuracy of SS-FSE (n=22, 95.7%) and 3D FSE\u0000(n=23,100%) sequences when used in conjunction to be very similar to that of CT (n=23,100%) in evaluating etiology. Conclusion: The study\u0000concludes that both the MRU sequences of single-shot fast echo and three-dimensional fast spin echo sequence have signicantly high diagnostic\u0000value in identifying etiology and grading obstructive uropathy (OU).

However,\u0000concerns regarding radiation exposure, particularly to radiosensitive organs like the thyroid, have prompted to estimate and evaluate the radiation\u0000dose to thyroid gland from head CT scans. The amount of radiation exposure varies depending on several factors including the specic type of CT\u0000scan, the settings used during the scan, and the individual's size and age. The results were compared with studies reporting thyroid doses from head\u0000CT scans, including dose measurements, dose estimation methods, and dose-reduction techniques. The estimated average thyroid dose from the\u0000OSLD measurements in the present study was 0.939+- 0.072 mGy.
