Key influences include the child's natural temperament, with traits such as sensory sensitivity and food neophobia playing an important role. Parental eating practices, including modeling healthy eating behaviors and creating a positive mealtime environment, have a significant impact on children's eating patterns. Family dynamics, such as parental pressure or restrictions, can exacerbate selective eating behavior. In addition, early experiences with a variety of foods and repeated exposure to new foods are also important in shaping a child's acceptance of varied foods. Interventions that emphasize a non-coercive and supportive approach, encourage repeated exposure to a variety of foods, and foster a positive mealtime atmosphere are critical to reducing picky eating behavior. By understanding these factors, parents and caregivers can better address and manage picky eating, encourage healthier eating habits, and support preschoolers' overall growth and well-being.","PeriodicalId":14366,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Science and Research Archive","volume":"3 12","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141796257","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}

The condenser cooling system at Sebalang powerplant operates on an open cycle, where seawater taken from the intake enters the condenser to cool and condense steam, then exits through the outfall and returns to the sea. The discharge flow of residual condenser cooling water through the outfall is 1.18 m3/s and currently remains unutilized. With a head of 1.5 meters, this potential can be converted into electrical energy, generating a power potential of 10.4 kW.

Postoperative maxillary defects can be rehabilitated through surgical and prosthetic procedures. An obturator was utilized as a part of prosthetic management to facilitate efficient deglutition and articulation. It also provides support for the facial soft tissue to restore the midfacial contour in cases of palatal defects.

It is linked to the onset of hemolytic disease of the newborn (HDN) ranging from haemolytic anemia to hydrops fetalis and also related to maternal Rh sensitization. The disease incidence is currently declining globally, having dropped from 1.3%–1.7% in the 1980s to 0.17% in the 1990s1. Erythroblastosis foetalis is one of the most terrible consequences of an ABO incompatible or Rh incompatible pregnancy. About 10% of all Rh-negative pregnancies result in Rh incompatibility in the Rh-negative mother carrying a Rh-positive fetus. Methods: This observational study was carried out among 60 Rh negative pregnant women attending our antenatal clinic and delivered in our institution from October 2022 to March 2024.The Rh negative women were followed up with a series of investigations such as Indirect Coombs Test (ICT), MCA-PSV and with regular antenatal care (ANC). After birth neonates were followed up with blood grouping and Rh typing, direct coombs test (DCT), duration of phototherapy, duration of NICU stay , need for immunoglobulin and exchange transfusion were recorded to evaluate the maternal and neonatal outcomes.The data was collected and tabulated in Microsoft excel sheet and the percentages were calculated. Results: This study included a total of 60 Rh negative mothers ,where 48 (80%) of them were aged less than 30 years and 12 of them (20%) were more than 30 years of age. Antenatally, 51 (85%) women were ICT negative and received RAADP, 9(15%) women were ICT positive and anti D titres were less than 1:16 followed up with MCA-PSV which was normal/less than 1.5MoM. The total preterm births were 6(10%).The total admissions to NICU were 12(20%) in our study. All the 9 babies born to ICT positive mothers turned out to be Direct Coombs test (DCT) positive and were managed with double surface phototherapy. For 2(3.3%) babies, human immunoglobulin was given. Only 1(1.6%) baby required exchange transfusion. Conclusion: We conclude that, severe hyperbilirubinemia and hydrops foetalis, which were observed previously are drastically reduced with recent advances and the use of Routine antenatal Anti D prophylaxis (RAADP). Neonatal morbidity and mortality reduced drastically with newer advances like immunoglobulin reducing the need for exchange transfusion and better NICU care. ICT positivity of 15% despite of postnatal immunisation suggest that there is chances of silent fetomaternal haemorrhage during antenatal period, health care professionals should be more knowledgeble with prenatal screening, the value of blood grouping and Rh typing, anti-D immunisation following sensitising events like MTP, abortion, ectopic pregnancy, ECV and regular implementation of RAADP in clinical practice.","PeriodicalId":14366,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Science and Research Archive","volume":"12 26","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141795780","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}

Accurately identifying and evaluating the risk level is crucial for planning an efficient treatment strategy. However, this task is immensely challenging due to the varied and irregular shapes, textures, and sizes of IPMN cysts, as well as those of the pancreas itself. In this study, we introduce a new computer-aided diagnostic approach for classifying IPMN risk levels based on multi-contrast MRI scans. The proposed analysis framework comprises an efficient volumetric self-adapting segmentation strategy for delineating the pancreas, followed by a newly developed deep learning-based classification scheme incorporating a radiomics-based predictive approach. To evaluate the proposed decision-fusion model, we use multi-centre datasets and multi-contrast MRI scans, aiming to achieve superior performance compared to the current state of the art in this field. The ablation studies illustrate the importance of both radiomics and deep learning modules in achieving a new state-of-the-art (SOTA) performance compared to international guidelines and published studies (81.9% vs 61.3% in accuracy). These key findings carry significant implications for clinical decision-making, potentially revolutionizing the way IPMN risk levels are classified. Through a series of rigorous experiments on multi-centre datasets (involving more MRI scans from five centers), we attained unprecedented performance levels with moderate accuracy. The code will be made available upon publication.","PeriodicalId":14366,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Science and Research Archive","volume":"4 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141796094","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}
