The present study was conducted to assess the knowledge regarding Hepatitis A among adults in a selected community, Kottayam. The objectives of the study were to assess the knowledge regarding Hepatitis A among adults and to find the association between knowledge of adults regarding Hepatitis A and selected demographic variables. Convenience sampling technique was used to select 30 samples from the rural population of Athirampuzha Panchayat. The tools for data collection included semi structured questionnaire for collecting demographic data and a structured questionnaire to assess knowledge regarding Hepatitis A among adults. Pilot study was conducted to assess the feasibility of the study and followed by which data collection was analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. The result showed that among 30 subjects more than half of the subjects 26(86.6%) had average knowledge and there were equal number of subjects 2(6.7%) having good and poor knowledge regarding Hepatitis A respectively. The study findings revealed that there is no significant association between knowledge of adults regarding Hepatitis A and selected demographic variables. The study concluded that majority of the subjects have only average knowledge regarding Hepatitis A. The findings of the study have implications in nursing practice, nursing education, nursing administration and nursing research. The nurses, who are aware of this evidence, should explore new ways to assess more accurately and identify the problems of rural population who are not knowledgeable and take action to educate them.

The present study was conducted to assess the knowledge regarding ADHD among primary school teachers in selected schools, Kottayam. The objectives of the study were to assess the knowledge regarding attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) among primary school teachers and to find the association between knowledge of primary school teachers regarding ADHD and selected demographic variables. Convenience sampling technique was used to select 30 samples from the three primary schools of Kottayam district. The tools for data collection included semi structured questionnaire for collecting demographic data and a self- administered standardized questionnaire to assess knowledge regarding ADHD among primary school teachers. Pilot study was conducted to assess the feasibility of the study and followed by which data collection was analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. The result showed that among 30 subjects 6(20%) had poor level of knowledge, 24 (80%) had average level of knowledge and none of them had good level of knowledge regarding attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. The study findings revealed that there is significant association between level of knowledge of primary school teachers and selected demographic variables such as gender, type of job, and any special training in child psychology. Result indicated that teachers’ greatest area of knowledge dealt with general information of ADHD. Teachers had lower scores related to identifying the symptoms and diagnosis and knowledge of treatments for the disorder. In conclusion, teachers in Kottayam district needed training on identifying symptoms and diagnosis and treatment of ADHD. The study recommended that In-service training courses to teachers about attention deficit hyperactivity disorder enhance teachers, parents and community awareness about attention deficit hyperactivity disorder through mass media.

Chickpea is a crucial annual crop widely cultivated in semi-arid tropics. It is one of the most important pulse crops in India. Variability may be a greater need for initiating a breeding program for yield and yield contributing traits. A total of 30 lines, along with a check, were evaluated in Randomized Block Design (RBD) during Rabi 2020-21. Highest seed yield per plant was recorded by PHULE 4-5. All the traits showed significant variation among the lines. Number of seeds per plant, seed yield per plant, number of pods per plant showed high Genotypic Coefficient of Variation (GCV) and Phenotypic Coefficient of Variation (PCV), whereas seed index, number of pods per plant, number of seeds per pod, showed moderate GCV and PCV. Traits exhibiting high heritability coupled with genetic advance as percent of mean suggest that the traits are governed by additive gene action, equal contribution of additive and non-additive gene action respectively. Genotypic correlation coefficient analysis revealed that seed yield per plant showed highly significant and positive association with harvest index (0.930**). Phenotypic correlation coefficient analysis revealed that seed yield per plant showed significant and positive association with number of pods per plant (0.493**), biological yield (0.457**), seed index (0.425**) and harvest index (0.362**). The path analysis results showed that positive and direct on grain yield was exhibited by harvest index, days to maturity, number of secondary branches per plant, number of pods per plant, biological yield per plant, seed index, days to 50% pod setting and seed index.

Questions that come to mind about the true genetic origin of the novel coronavirus and its direct source. As it is likely that these questions will be answered through aspects of the relationship between science and intelligence, the results of which will converge together in the end to some evidence. Materials and methods: The 29 complete coronavirus and HIV genomes were collected from various countries at random and conducted various bioinformatics instruments in order to find connections between viral sequences from various sources. Results: The closest similarity between the SARS-CoV-2 genomes approximately (99.98%). The small difference between genome sequences is considered as weak mutations occur even at the present time. This study revealed that the novel coronavirus had a structure identical to the HIV virus which it reached approximately 46.33%. Conclusions: It is not possible for the SARS-CoV-2 to be related to HIV through mutation, manipulation, or laboratory artificial. Laboratory mutation occurred in the Wuhan lab and led to the outbreak of the epidemic, deliberately or accidentally, and this will be determined later.

Akilpur lake is surrounded by agricultural lands and cover about 1500 meter in length and 300 meter in width and connected occasionally with Ganga river in flooding period of the year. The agricultural and anthropogenic activities increasingly polluted the water quality of the lake. This research was carried out to monitor the water quality status of the lake on the monthly basis from January 2021 to December 2021. The water samples were collected from inlet, mid-lake, and outlet sites and analyzed for different physical and chemical parameters, following the standard American Public Health Organization methods. The results were compared with surface water quality standard given by Bureau of Indian Standards. It was observed that mid-lake water was not much affected by different pollution sources as compared to inlet and outlet waters. The lake water was observed increasingly polluted than earlier and there is need of care to monitor lake for sustainable perspective.

The Canadian Council of Ministers of the Environment method (CCME) and the Logarithmic Aggregation method proposed by Tiwari and Mishra (TM) were used to assess the groundwater quality for drinking in Garividi region (Gurla, Gajapatinagaram, Dattirajeru, Merakamuidam, Cheepurupalli and Garividi mandals) which occupy some central part of Vizianagaram district of Andhra Pradesh, India. The groundwater samples were collected during every month from November 2018 to October 2019 from 38 bore wells of selected sampling locations in the study area. Fourteen parameters such as pH, EC, TDS, TH, TA, Ca2+, Mg2+, Na+, CO32-, HCO3-, Cl-, SO42-, NO3-, F- of samples were analyzed using standard laboratory procedures. This paper describes the assessment of ground water quality for drinking purposes using CCME and TM water quality index methods and water quality parameters variation with regression correlation analysis during Post and Pre monsoons and monsoon. From CCME-WQI analysis, it is observed that quality of about 2.63% of the water samples is Excellent, about 28.95% of the water samples is Good, about 52.63% of the water samples is Fair, about 5.26% is Marginal and remaining 10.53% is Poor and from TM-WQI analysis, it is observed that quality of about 2.63% of the water samples is Excellent, quality of about 42.1% of the water samples is good, about 39.5% is Medium, about 13.2% is poor and remaining 2.63% is unsuitable for drinking purpose in the study area. From the correlation analysis, it is observed that EC and TDS are the important parameters, as they are significantly correlated with other parameters.
采用加拿大环境部长理事会方法(CCME)和Tiwari and Mishra (TM)提出的对数聚集法(Logarithmic Aggregation method)对印度安得拉邦Vizianagaram地区中部的Garividi地区(Gurla、Gajapatinagaram、Dattirajeru、Merakamuidam、Cheepurupalli和Garividi mandals)的饮用地下水水质进行了评价。2018年11月至2019年10月,在研究区选定采样点的38口井中每月采集地下水样本。采用标准实验室程序分析样品的pH、EC、TDS、TH、TA、Ca2+、Mg2+、Na+、CO32-、HCO3-、Cl-、SO42-、NO3-、F-等14项参数。本文介绍了利用CCME和TM水质指数法评价地下水饮用水质,并利用回归相关分析分析了季风前后和季风期间水质参数的变化。通过CCME-WQI分析可知,约2.63%的水样质量为优,约28.95%的水样质量为良,约52.63%的水样质量为一般,约5.26%的水样质量为一般,其余10.53%的水样质量为差。通过tcm - wqi分析可知,约2.63%的水样质量为优,约42.1%的水样质量为良,约39.5%的水样质量为中,在研究区内,约有13.2%水质较差,其余2.63%不适合饮用。从相关分析可以看出,EC和TDS是重要的参数,它们与其他参数显著相关。

Coronavirus disease also termed as covid-19 or SARS-COV-2 infection has been declared as global pandemic disease by World Health Organization (WHO). The first case of covid-19 is reported at the local Huanan Seafood wholesale market in Wuhan city in Hubei in central chain at last of 2019. Covid-19 is rapidly spread throughout the world since December – 2019 from Wuhan city of China. Covid-19 patient has various symptoms like fever, cough, sore throat, breathlessness, fatigue and others. It is very necessary to identify the cases of covid-19 as soon as possible and isolate the suspected people and confirmed cases of Covid-19 to prevent the infection to other peoples.
