Title
Role of Mettler's Release as an adjunct in the management of post-immobilization knee stiffness- A pilot study.
Objective
To determine the role of Mettler's Release Technique (MRT) as an adjunct on knee flexion range of motion in post immobilization knee stiffness
Methodology
Nine subjects who had knee stiffness following immobilization greater than three weeks were included and randomized into control and experimental groups. Five treatment sessions of MRT along with conventional therapy was given to the experimental group and only conventional therapy was given to the control group. Knee flexion range of motion was measured in sitting using standard goniometer pre and post treatment sessions.
Results
Improvements in knee flexion range of motion were noticed in both the groups, however the improvement was greater in experimental group (22.5±9.85 to 64.5±1.77) compared to control group (37±2.07 to 64.66±6.5).
Observation
Mettler's Release Technique (MRT) was an effective adjunct in improving knee flexion range of motion in post immobilization knee stiffness.

An attempt was made to analyze the structure and competitiveness of the maize market in Davanagere. The Lorenz co-efficient of inequality was found to be 0.206 which revealed that there existed a higher degree of competitiveness for maize in Davanagere as market concentration was less. The maize traders from Davanagere established linkage with the poultry feed manufacturers of the district. Among the three poultry feed units in the study area, Feeds India Private Limited stood first for price and procurement reasons and Pragathi Feeds was preferred for payment reasons.Keywords

ObjectiveTo compare the effectiveness of antero-posterior (AP) and postero-anterior (PA) glide mobilization on external rotation range of motion (ROM) in patients with adhesive capsulitis.
MethodologyPatients referred to the department of physiotherapy with the diagnosis of primary adhesive capsulitis were included in the study. Subjects were from both gender groups between 35 to 70 years of age, with capsular pattern of shoulder. Total of 15 participants were included in the study by convenience sampling and were randomized to 2 treatment groups (antero-posterior i.e. AP and postero-anterior i.e. PA) by block randomization. AP group consisted of 8 subjects & PA group consisted of 7 subjects. Out of 15 subjects 10 completed the study & 5 were lost to follow up. Kaltenborn grade III mobilizations were provided to both the groups, with direction of mobilizations directed anteriorly in one group & posteriorly in the other group.Improvement in shoulder external rotation range of motion at 45° of abduction was the primary outcome measure, with secondary outcome measures as Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) pain scores.
ResultsDescriptive analysis of 15 subjects using median and interquartile values revealed that there was improvement in the primary & secondary outcome measures in both the groups (AP & PA). There was no clinically significant difference between the 2 groups.
ObservationBoth the glides antero-posterior (AP) and postero-anterior (PA) showed to be effective on external rotation range of motion in patients with adhesive capsulitis.

India is the world's largest mango producer, growing nearly 1000 varieties of mango and contributing over 52 per cent of the world's total mango production of approximately 23 million metric tons. Mango (Mangifera indica L.), is the most economically important fruit of India. The main mango producing states in India are Andhra Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Karnataka, Bihar, Gujarat and Maharashtra. The total area under Mango in Karnataka is 1,30,000 ha and mango season in the state is from April to July. The major mango growing belts in Karnataka are Kolar-Chikkaballapur, Ramanagara-Tumkur, Haveri-Dharwad, Belgum districts. The Kolar district has about 47 per cent of the acreage under mango in the state. Srinivasapura farmed for virtually total mango growing taluka with 22,325 ha under the fruit. Srinivasapura is one of the biggest mango markets in south India on an average the market absorbs nearly 6 lakhs quintals of mango every year and these arrivals influenced be various factors. Quantity arrivals in the APMC in the starting seasons are very less (April). The peak season is from May 15th to June 15th, less quantity arrivals observed in the end of the season (August). Total arrivals differ from year to year indicates mango is a biannual bearing tree, one year will be higher yield and subsequent yield will be less and this is reflected in the arrivals in APMC also. The actual arrivals and prices presiding in the market are not reflected in the official records of APMC. The maximum arrivals of mango to the APMC were observed during the month of June which accounted for 180667.60 quintals. The minimum arrivals of mango to the APMC were observed during the month of April which accounted for 60 quintals. The liner trend model shows that as the time increases by one year arrival of mango was increases by 3750 quintals and the 454582 was the constant over years the linear trend. Mango fruit from Srinivasapura taluka moves towards different parts of the country mostly towards north Indian states.Keywords

Mango (Mangifera indica L.) is an important fruit crop in India and popularly called the 'king of fruits'. Approximately 50 per cent of all tropical fruits produced worldwide are mangoes. Mango is the most widely cultivated fruit in India. India is the major Mango growing country, contributing nearly 49.62 per cent of world's area and 42.06 per cent of world's production, respectively. Lack of suitable marketing avenues and channels decreases the margin for the mango growers. This study was undertaken to know the existing marketing channels and various reasons for farmers opting particular marketing channel for sale in the Srinivasapura taluk of Kolar district in Karnataka. A survey was conducted among 85 mango growers in Srinivasapura Taluk of Kolar district, Karnataka. The study revealed three marketing channels used by farmers, of which the pre-harvest contractor was the most prevalent, because it is more convenient and less risky. The mango growers were classified into small (<2.5 acres), MEDIUM (2.5 to 5 acres) and large (> 5 acres) based on total mango holding of the farmers and information was collected in different villages of the taluk and the total sample size is 85. Results show that 67.06 per cent of the farmers sold mango in APMC Srinivasapura, 30.97 per cent of farmers sold mango to pre-harvest contractors and only 2.35 per cent of the farmers sold mango in upcountry market. There are various reasons expressed by the farmers to opt particular channel of sale are convenient to sell in the village, better price for produce, less risky compared to other type of sales, marketing cost, immediate need for money, inadequate knowledge about marketing information, better price, orchard nearer to APMC yard, borrowed money from trader/commission agent, etc.Keywords

In urban street canyons, external noise environment is a critical restriction to the opening of building windows for natural ventilation. The high external noise intensities are often used to substantiate the utilization of air conditioning systems in residential and commercial buildings. Therefore, a systematic method of examining the noise levels in urban street canyons is essential if the potential for natural ventilation is to be estimated. The noise levels and natural ventilation in urban street canyons depend on many aspects such as existing street dimensions, height of buildings and traffic density. A study has been carried out in a street to examine the variation in noise levels vertically in order to provide technical inputs on natural ventilation potential in urban street canyons. In this study, a number of noise measurements were made in urban street canyons of Bengaluru City, in residential and commercial areas with respect to aspect ratio (height of building/street width) changing from 1.0 to 4.0. With the help of measured data, a statistical model was developed. A linear regression analysis has been used. The model can be used to predict variation of noise level in vertical direction in urban street canyons. The variation of noise level is found to be a function of street width and height of a building above the street level, but the highest level of reduction is almost entirely a function of the aspect ratio. The rate of attenuation of foreground noise (L10) is greater than the background noise (L90) with height.Keywords
