Study Design: Pre test Post test Study Design
Objectives: To evaluate the effect of dual task training under fixed and variable priority instructions set in institutionalized elder adults with balance impairment.
Background: Previous trials have investigated the effect of dual task training in community dwelling elderly population. No clinical trial examining the effect of this type of training under fixed and variable priority instructions set in institutionalized elder adults with balance impairment has been reported in the literature.
Method: 30 Institutionalized elderly patients with balance impairment were assigned in to 2 groups. The group A received Dual Task Training with fixed priority Instruction set while group B received Dual Task Training with Variable priority Instruction set. Both groups received the selected treatment over a 4 week periods. Outcome measures were evaluated at baseline, 2nd week and 4th week.
Results: The study shows significant improvement in balance of the elderly population following dual task training under fixed and variable priority instruction set. But improvement is more marked under variable priority instruction set.
Conclusion: The research hypothesis which states that there will be more improvement in balance trained with variable priority instruction set than fixed priority in elderly population with balance impairment has been accepted.

The present investigation entitled 'Temporal Stability analysis of resin yield of natural regenerated Chir pine (Pinus roxburghii Sargent) in Himachal Pradesh.' was carried out during the year 2012-13 with the aim to identify the stable diameter classes with respect to resin yield obtained from Pinus roxburghii. Secondary data on resin yield for 145 trees for seven years w.e.f. year 2005 to year 2011 were taken from the Department of Forest Products, Dr. Y. S. Parmar University of Horticulture and Forestry, Nauni, Solan, Himachal Pradesh. The tree set of 145 trees remain same for all the years. These trees were divided into seven diameter classes i.e. 30-35 cm, 35-40 cm, 40-45 cm, 45-50 cm, 50-55 cm, 55-60 cm and 60-65 cm depending upon the variability among data. Two stability models viz. Finlay and Wilkinson's model (1963) and Eberhart and Russell's model (1966) were used to identify the stable diameter class for the production of resin. Pooled analysis of variance was performed to detect the presence of diameter class (D) × year (Y) interaction. The effects due to Y, D and D × Y interaction were found to be significant. Finlay and Wilkinson's model suggested that the diameter class 40-45 cm had the mean (D) greater than the overall mean and regression coefficient bi was nearly equal to one. Eberhart and Russel's model indicated that the diameter class 40-45 cm had (0.35) which 2 was greater than zero, regression coefficient bi (0.872) which was nearly equal to one and low (s d). Thus, diameter i class 40-45 cm was identified as stable diameter class with respect to resin yield obtained from Pinus roxburghii. Therefore, it may be concluded that diameter class 40-45 cm was most stable for resin yield.Keywords

Tobacco use is today's major public health concern in our country, which can be largely reduced by primordial and primary prevention. According to NFHS III, 57% of men and 10.8% of women use any kind of tobacco in India. To determine the prevalence and correlates of tobacco use among the rural community of block Beri, district Jhajjar, Haryana. This cross-sectional study was carried out during the period of September 2012 to August 2013.Multistage random sampling was used in this study. A sample size of 1080 was included in the study Appropriate statistical tests were used for analysis. The overall prevalence of current tobacco use was found to be 26.9% (tobacco-smoking: 26.4%; tobacco-smokeless: 2.7%) and it was found to be higher among males as 46.7% (tobacco-smoking: 46.3%; tobacco-smokeless: 4.4%) than7.2% in females (tobacco-smoking: 6.5%; tobacco-smokeless: 0.9%). Our study confirmed the high burden of tobacco use in rural areas and reiterated the need to address these issues comprehensively as a part of NCD prevention and control strategy.Keywords

Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks within the networks must be prevented or handled if it happens, as early as possible and before reaching the victim. Handling ddos attack is want of associated degree hour thus on avoid depletion of the network resources such as network bandwidth, data structures, CPU time, Disk Space, network connections, as they' re threats not just for the direct targets however also for the core of the network. Dealing with DDoS attacks is tough because of their properties like dynamic attack rates, varied forms of targets, huge scale of botnets , etc. Multifaceted nature of DDoS attacks defines the need for multifaceted defence. Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks are hard to deal with because it is difficult to distinguish legitimate traffic from malicious traffic, especially when the traffic is cuming at a different rate from distributed sources. But ddos attack become more difficult to handle if it occurs in wireless network because of the properties of ad hoc network such as dynamic topologies, low battery life, Unicast routing, Multicast routing, scalability, Frequency of updates or network overhead, power aware routing, mobile agent based routing etc. So it is better to prevent the distributed denial of service attack instead of than permitting it to occur and so taking the required steps to handle it.Keywords

Nutritional anemia is a worldwide problem with the highest prevalence in developing countries. It is found especially among women of child-bearing age, young children and during pregnancy and lactation. It is estimated to affect nearly two-thirds of pregnant and one-half of non pregnant women in developing countries. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), there are two billion people with anemia in the world and half of the anemia is due to iron deficiency. Anemia is a late indicator of iron deficiency, so it is estimated that the prevalence of iron deficiency is 2.5 times that of anemia. The estimated prevalence of anemia in developing countries is 39% in children <5 years, 48% in children 5-14 years, 42% in women 15-59 years, 30% in men 15-59 years, and 45% in adults >60 years It is a major public health problem in India. Although nearly three quarters of the Indian population live in rural areas, the epidemiology of anemia in rural settings is not well known. According to National Family Health Survey (2005-06), the prevalence of anemia was 70% in children aged 6-59 months, 55% in females aged 15-49 years, and 24% in males aged 15-49 years. Iron deficiency is believed to be the most important cause of anemia among children in India and is attributable to poor nutritional iron intake and low iron bioavailability. Other factors, including folate and vitamin B12 and Vitamin A deficiencies, malaria infection, hookworm infestation, and hemoglobin apathies, are also associated with childhood anemia. To our knowledge, no previous report in the published literature has described the relative contribution of these factors to anemia in rural Indian children. To effectively control this problem, health care providers must have a comprehensive understanding of the etiologic factors associated with anemia.- Development of Blended Yarns and Fabric Using Chokla Wool and Camel Hair

The present study was conducted to investigate the effect of blending camel hair and chokla wool in different ratios and study the properties of fibres, yarn and fabric along with the acceptability of blended fabrics. Camel hair and chokla wool fibres were blended together in the proportion of 25:75, 50:50 and 75:25, respectively. Yarn of 100 per cent wool and camel fibre were also made for base reference. Different properties of blended yarn and fabric were evaluated. The study indicated that fabric sample of camel hair and chokla wool of 50:50 was a good blended fabric which showed good warmth, texture, luster and aesthetic appearance. So, it was concluded that camel hair can be successfully blended with chokla wool. Blending improves certain properties of chokla wool and camel hair.Keywords

Apple crop is the predominant temperate fruit in the high hills of Himachal Pradesh (HP), India, primarily due to the ideal temperate climate of the region characterized by high altitude and significant snowfall. This study aims to examine the marketing aspects of apple crops in the high hills of HP, taking into account the complex nature of its marketing patterns. It emphasizes the importance of maintaining a cautious approach within the marketing channel, as any oversight can reduce prices and profits. Additionally, the study examines the arrival trends of apples in the Agricultural Produce Marketing Committee of HP. The findings reveal that the retail channel demonstrated the highest marketing efficiency, followed by the commission agent’s channel, suggesting that reducing the intermediaries in the channel contributes to enhanced marketing efficiency.Keywords
