To prevent new cancers from starting, scientists look at risk factors and protective factors. Anything that increases chance of developing cancer is called a cancer risk factor; anything that decreases your chance of developing cancer is called a cancer protective factor. The survival rates of breast cancer in India are low because the detection takes place late. The only way to change these numbers is by increasing awarenessSome risk factors for cancer can be avoided, but many cannot. Avoiding risk factors and increasing protective factors may lower risk for breast cancer.

The present study was undertaken to determine the effectiveness of facilitated tucking on pain and physiological parameters during heel lancing among neonates. A quantitative research approach with quasi experimental research design was used for the study. The framework, Katherine Kolcaba’s theory of holistic comfort theoretically supported the study. The study was conducted among 70 (35 control and 35 experimental) neonates admitted in the nicu, selected by non-probability purposive sampling technique. Clinical data sheet, neonatal pain assessment scale and physiological parameters assessment scale were used for data collection. Content validity of the tools were established by validating ten experts in the field of pediatric nursing and medicine. The data were collected over a period of six weeks and were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. Results of the study revealed that, facilitated tucking had a significant effect in reducing pain during heel lancing among neonates at 0.001 level. The results also revealed that facilitated tucking had a significant effect in maintaining heart rate and respiratory rate at 0.001 level, but could not find significant effects on SpO2.

The National Rosacea Society (NRS) designates April as Rosacea Awareness Month to educate the public on the impact of the chronic and widespread facial disorder that is estimated to affect more than 16 million Americans1. The goal of Rosacea Awareness Month is to spread public education on this disease so that more people who may have rosacea seek medical help before it gets worse, and so those whose lives are affected can find greater public acceptance and understanding.1 Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory skin condition that usually affects the face and fortunately there is a range of medical therapies that may effectively address each individual case2. Through habit, many patients may unknowingly continue with therapy that is not as effective as it could be, when there may be newer medications that achieve more successful results as well as therapy combinations that offer excellent synergistic effects.2

Background of The Study: A man’s life is normally divided into five stages namely: infancy, childhood, adolescence, adulthood and old age. Every stage has its significance in terms of biological and psychological transition which in-turn influences the behavior, among these stages the pivotal transformation occurs between childhood to adolescence, which is also termed as biological stress. Hormone for the first time appear and change the internal environment and in- turn influence psychological composure of an individual, this influence can be in positive or in negative way. Aim: Aim of study is to assess and compare emotional intelligence between boys and girls nursing students form selected nursing colleges of latur. Method: In the study 60 samples were chosen using non probability convenient sampling, structured Emotional intelligence scale was administered to assess emotional intelligence among boys and girls of nursing college. Result: The findings of the present study, revealed that among Boys the highest percentage (86%) had high emotional intelligence and remaining (13.33%) had low Emotional intelligence scores. While In case of Girls, Highest percentage (95%) had high emotional intelligence scores and remaining (5%) had low emotional intelligence scores. To find the significance of difference in mean emotional intelligence scores between Boys and Girls Nursing students, Independent ‘t’-test was computed obtained value of Independent ‘t’(58)= 6.553 , which was found to be significant at 0.05 level of significance. Hence Null hypothesis is rejected interpreting Girls had significantly higher emotional intelligence compared to Boys. To find association with level of Emotional intelligence and their selected personal demographical variables Chi-Square was computed, results reveal that no personal variables of samples were found to be statistically significant at 0.05 level of significance. Conclusion: The study revealed the emotional intelligence is having a profound impact on boys and girls Nursing students and it further revels that girls had higher emotionally intelligence in comparison to boys. The result demonstrated that the Questionnaire was effective for comparing the emotional maturity in between boys and girls among the nursing student M.I.N.S college latur.

Early detection of neonatal illness is an important step towards improving newborn survival. Neonates and young infants often present with non-specific symptoms and signs that indicate severe illness. These signs might be present at or after delivery or in a newborn presenting to hospital or develop during hospital stay.3 Objectives of the study were to assess awareness of mothers regarding neonatal danger signs and to develop an information booklet. A descriptive research design was adopted for the study. Data was collected from a total of 147 mothers at district hospital, Udhampur, J&K. Purposive sampling technique was used to collect data. The tool used for data collection was checklist to assess knowledge regarding neonatal danger signs. The data collected was analyzed by using descriptive statistics. Result revealed that majority (56.4%) of the mothers are in the age group of 21-25 years have no formal education (58.5%). Most of the mothers (72.7%) are housewife and (52.3%) had 2 children in the family. Majority of the mothers (96.5%) are from Hindu religion. Most of the mothers (65.3%) had source of information as Family/ Friends. Researcher found that majority of the mothers (61.9%) have poor knowledge and only 38.1 % of mothers have good knowledge regarding neonatal danger signs. The overall mean of the knowledge of mothers regarding neonatal danger signs is 3.65±1.46. At 5% of level of significance, selected demographic variables i.e., mother’s age, education, Occupation, no. of children and source of information were found significantly associated with the knowledge of mothers regarding neonatal danger signs. The researcher concluded that majority of the post natal mothers are not aware of neonatal danger signs and required to get knowledge regarding same. All of the participants were provided with information booklet to make them aware of neonatal danger signs.

Breakfast is widely acknowledged to be the most important meal of the day. Children who habitually consume Breakfast are more likely to have favourable nutrient intakes including higher intake of dietary fibre, total carbohydrate and lower total fat and cholesterol. Main aim of the study was to evaluate the Effectiveness of Power Point Assisted Teaching regarding Breakfast Skipping among School Children. A Quasi Experimental one group pre-test post-test research design was considered appropriate for the study. 100 School Children were selected through random sampling technique. The data was collected by using Structured Knowledge Questionnaire. The major findings of the study revealed that pre-test mean Knowledge score (6.86), post-test mean Knowledge score (20.86) and the calculated ‘t’ value (60.37) was found to be significant at 0.05 levels. Hence it indicates that the Power Point Assisted Teaching was highly effective in improving Knowledge regarding Breakfast Skipping among School Children. The Chi-square test showed that there was significant association found with variables of Age, Educational status of Students, Occupational status of Father and Mother and Family income per month, rest of the variables were not significantly associated at 0.05 levels of significance. Hence research hypothesis (H2) was accepted. Education Programme using motivating interventions like Power Point Assisted Teaching for School Children was essential to sensitize them about the problems faced by Breakfast Skipping among School Children and the intervention that can be taken to render help to such Children.
