The outbreak of the Pandemic in last few months, rapid increase in the transmission of the virus and also the new emerging various strains of COVID-19 corona virus has led to complete Iockdown in the entire world. Meanwhile Iockdown imposed on various countries for longer duration has affected almost every sector of the society causing loss leading to hunger and poverty in the world. By considering all the situations and difficulties underwent by the human society a clear scenario where country not only needs Iockdown as it cannot be the effective solution in slowing down the rate of disease affecting people, So Society is Constantly looking for the alternatives that could help every sector in their business without loss is the topic of the hour. An alternative which could satisfy the above conditions is by Social Distancing and Wearing the Face mask. There by proposing our Real Time System which will detect whether required distance is maintained between two people and detect whether the face mask is worn or not by people with the aid of Web Camera using the most trending technologies Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning Algorithms, Deep Learning, CNN and few more.
8613 Background: Little guidance is available regarding the optimum placement and use of implantable venous access devices (VAD) in cancer treatment. We present herein 10 years of experience with VAD in a university hospital oncology clinic. Methods: Post hoc analysis of prospectively collected records of 346 cancer patients in whom 362 VAD (Port-a-Caths) were placed between January 1995 to December 2005. Primary end points included need for instillation of tissue plasminogen activator (TPA) to restore patency, need for an x-ray dye study to determine catheter salvageability, and premature removal because of VAD failure. We used Chi-square analysis to compare VAD placement by the Radiology service under fluoroscopy vs. placement by Surgery in the operating room (OR), placement in the right vs. left chest and internal jugular (IJ) vs. subclavian (SC) vein placement. Results: OR-placed VAD, more often than Radiology-placed VAD required TPA for patency (18.6% vs 8.07%, p<0.01), a dye study (11.7% vs 2.69%, p=0.001) or premature removal (14.7% vs 5.38%, p<0.01). Right- and left-sided VAD were equally likely to receive TPA (9.2% vs 16.1%, p=0.11) but left-sided VAD required more dye studies (3.3% vs 10.7%, p=0.013) and were prematurely removed more often (5.5% vs 15%, p=0.007). 29 (8%) of VAD were prematurely removed because of infection (n=11), thrombosis(n=6), pain (n=2), mechanical malfunction (n=6) and others (n=4). Gender, age (< vs. > 60 years), site of placement (IJ vs. SC) or body mass index (< vs. > 25) had no bearing on the primary endpoints. Intrathoracic cancer was associated with more TPA treatment of the VAD (16.8% vs. 8.4%, p<0.023) but not with dye studies (7.9% vs. 4%, p=0.191) or removal (6.1% vs. 8.8%, p=0.517). Conclusions: AVAD will usually last until completion of cancer therapy. Occlusion or premature removal is less likely in a VAD placed on the right side under fluoroscopic guidance by an experienced radiologist. Thoracic disease, site of placement, obesity, age or gender do not determine adverse outcomes for VAD. No significant financial relationships to disclose.
The Guillian Barré syndrome is an acute inflammatory disorder for which plasma exchange is effective treatment. Up to 10% relapse after plasma exchange suggesting that treatment sometimes finishes before disease activity has resolved. We studied whether plasma fibrinogen, an inflammatory marker, might be used to determine when to discontinue plasma exchange in patients with acute Guillain-Barré syndrome. We conducted a post-hoc analysis of apheresis database and hospital records of patients treated with plasma exchange for acute Guillain-Barré syndrome during 1999-2004. Data were analyzed from 28 patients who underwent a total of 29 courses of plasma exchange for acute Guillain-Barré syndrome. The mean (+/-SD) plasma fibrinogen concentration was 422.5 (+/-96.4) mg/dl at the time of presentation and, in 17 of the 29, it was above 400 mg/dl (reference range 200-400). Twenty of the 21 patients whose fibrinogen fell by more than 30% from baseline by the time of the final plasma exchange treatment had neurological improvement. There was improvement in only 3 of the 8 instances where fibrinogen decreased by less than 30% by the end of plasma exchange therapy. A > or =30% decrease in fibrinogen by the conclusion of plasma exchange was significantly associated with sustained neurological improvement (P = 0.0025). The plasma fibrinogen level appears to reflect disease activity in acute Guillain-Barré syndrome. A <30% fall in fibrinogen level despite plasma exchange may indicate the need to continue plasma exchange to maximize the benefit of treatment or minimize the risk of relapse. Therapeutic plasma exchange need not be extended when plasma fibrinogen remains > or =30% below its level at presentation by the time of the final planned plasma exchange procedure.
The challenge of identifying and categorizing fruit illnesses is extremely complex because different fruit varieties can have noticeable differences in their features. We use a feature vector technique to handle these difficulties since we know it works well for managing this kind of variability. Every fruit goes through picture pre-processing to improve its representation before features are extracted. Together with the fruit samples, we establish a classified training dataset that we use to build a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) model sorting fruits into fresh and rotting categories is the main goal. Important phases of the suggested model's development include feature creation, classifier learning, and pre-processing.
Tumor lysis syndrome (TLS) is the phenomenon of metabolic derangements that typically follows the initiation of cytotoxic chemotherapy. Metabolic disturbances include hyperphosphatemia, hyperkalemia, hyperuricemia and hypocalcemia. Hematological malignancies are associated with spontaneous TLS (STLS), which is cell lysis in the absence of chemotherapy. STLS is extremely rare in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). This has been documented only once in the medical literature, making this an extraordinarily uncommon case. We present here a 68-year-old male with a history of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) who is admitted for a two-week history of abdominal pain and three days of anuria, despite adequate fluid intake. Laboratory values yielded a greatly elevated leukocyte count with a lymphocytic predominance and smudge cells. Potassium, phosphorus, and uric acid were also significantly increased. EKG revealed peaked T-waves. Flow cytometry confirmed the presence of an abnormal B-cell population consistent with B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia, with the following markers: CD19+, CD20+, CD23+, CD5+, CD10-. He was diagnosed with CLL and treated with aggressive fluid resuscitation, allopurinol and rasburicase. The patient had another similar episode within one month. His CLL fluorescence in-situ hybridization (FISH) showed complex cytogenetics with unmutated IgVH and he was subsequently started on ibrutinib.
