To Asses the Self- Help Skills in Mentally Challenged Students. Skilled deficiency is an inevitable and widespread problem in mentally challenged population. It's very important to asses their self help skills (i.e. adaptive behaviour) to know the magnitude of the burden they put on parents and society. Institutional based cross sectional study was earned out with 165 mentally challenged students of Nandanwan School, Nagpur from March -May 2005 Mentally challenged children were lagging behind in all areas like eating, dressing toileting, communication, locomotion, money matters (self direction) as their means in all age groups and in all areas were less. Means social quotient did not increase as per the chronological ages of children. Mentally challenged children faced difficulties m activities of daily living. As the age of children increased their mean social ages increased but their mean social quotient didn't increase with their age hence there is need of special education and training.Keywords

Background and Aims: Maintenance of a patient airway is a fundamental responsibility of the anaesthesiologist and tracheal intubation remains one of the commonest means of establishing definitive airway. The Sniffing Position (SP) is traditionally recommended as the standard head position for optimal glottic exposure. However, intubation is sometimes easier with just simple cervical extension without inducing neck flexion. So, we conducted this study to evaluate the glottic visualisation and ease of intubation using sniffing position and simple head extension during laryngoscopy. Methods: Two hundred American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical grade I and II patients scheduled for surgery under general anaesthesia were randomly allocated to be intubated in sniffing position (Group I) or simple head extension (Group II). Glottic visualization and ease of intubation were assessed. Results: The baseline demographic variables and haemodynamic parameters were statistically comparable between the two groups. In Group I, there were more number of patients (62%) with Cormack and Lehane grade I as compared to Group II (40%) suggesting that glottic visualization was significantly better in sniffing position (p<0.05). On comparison of various intubation difficulty scale parameters in both the groups it was observed that intubation was easier in sniffing position as compared to simple head extension. The total Intubation Difficulty Scale score indicated that ease of tracheal intubation was significantly lower (p<0.05) in Group I as compared to Group II. Conclusion: sniffing position provides better glottic visualization and ease of intubation as compared to simple head extension during direct laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation.Keywords

Ten parents of wide phenotypic differences and their 45F1S and 45F2S progenies were studied to assess the genetic variability among the parents and progenies for seed yield and oil content attributes for improvement in Indian mustard. The seed yield and oil content related to days to flowering, number of primary and secondary branches / plant, 1000 grain weight, length of main fruiting branches, harvest index exhibited significant differences among parents and the progenies but 1000 grain weight did not show any significant difference among F1S and F2S. Therefore, the direct and indirect selection efficiency through desirable characters is to be fixed for high yield. The range and variability are the measurements of parents and progenies, which will be supporting analogs for selection.Keywords
