Background: Obtaining early intervention services is crucial for improving outcomes in children with neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) such as Autism or Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder. Identifying barriers accessing the healthcare system necessary to optimize Patient and Family-Centered Care approach. Methods: Parents of an NDD co-occurring attention deficits were recruited from Neu...

The present study was conducted to know the prevalence of Salmonella and E.coli serovars in pigs at different localities of Andhra Pradesh as non typhoidal Salmonella strains and E.coli are important causes of reportable food borne infection. Among 101 faecal samples screened six isolates of Salmonella ie. S. derby (3) , S.typhimurium (2) and S.typhisuis (1) and twenty isolates of E.coli viz. 0...

l. Standard metabolic rate of western plumed pigeons (Lophophups femginea) averages 088 ml 0, (g hr)-’ during summer. This rate and the rate of evaporative water loss by these birds at 25°C are well below levels anticipated for birds of comparable size (81 g). 2. Summer and late fall birds did not have significantly different minimal thermal conductances, the means for both approximating l-8 kc...

In this study, flapwise bending vibration analysis of a tapered Timoshenko beam mounted on the periphery of a rotating rigid hub is performed. The governing differential equations of motion for pure bending are derived using the Hamilton’s principle and solved using the Differential Transform Method, DTM. During the derivation of the equations, effects of rotary inertia, shear deformation and h...

The modified Mallampati score is used to predict difficult tracheal intubation. We have conducted a meta-analysis of published studies to evaluate the Mallampati score as a prognostic test. A total of 55 studies involving 177 088 patients were included after comprehensive electronic and manual searches. The pooled estimates from the meta-analyses were calculated based on a random-effects model ...
