Local storage in web application through HTML 5

In recent years a number of sophisticated mechanisms for storing and managing data on web clients have emerged. These client-side storage mechanisms bring along several benefits, including faster websites and improved user experience. In the conventional model all data stored on the server side storage. When a user requests new data, a request is made by the client to the server and the data is retrieved from the database residing on the server. In this interaction model transferring of data is done between the client and server so takes more time and thus slows down the website leading poor user experience. In Modern Interaction Model, there is a provision of client-side storage that is local storage. The first mechanism used for local storage was HTTP cookie, which enabled the web application to store data on web clients. However, cookies do not meet the requirements of the modern web application. There are several techniques evolved for local storage like HTTP Cookie, Flash Cookie, and Google Gears. Nowadays HTML5 plays a major role in local storage.

Effectiveness of nurse led intervention on Quality of Life (QoL) among patients with Tuberculosis

Each year about 2.2 million people develop TB in India and an estimated 220,000 die from the disease. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), it’s the most deadly infectious disease in the world, killing 1.5 million people in 2014. TB is most common in developing countries. Tuberculosis is usually preventable and curable under the right conditions. To assess the effectiveness of the nurse-led intervention on Quality of Life (QoL) among patients with tuberculosis. A Quasi-experimental study with time series design with a comparison group was conducted in two selected Hospitals of Kanpur 50 active tuberculosis patients( 25 experimental and 25 in the comparison group) formed the sample for the study The researcher used structured questionnaire to elicit demographic data and WHO QoL BREF scale to assess Quality of life. The nurse-led interventions were individualized teaching on tuberculosis to patients and family education in the prevention and management of tuberculosis. To experimental group the comparison group followed ward routine, The post-intervention and assessment of the quality of life were done at 15 days and 60 days for both the group. There was a significant difference in the quality of life in 15 days and 60 days at p.<001 level The Mean difference was high in all domains of quality of life in the experimental group except physical domain. The highest mean difference in QoL was found in environmental health and the lowest in physical domain with 95% Cl after an intervention that infers the nurse-led intervention was effective whereas the Mean difference in all domains in the comparison group was very low. The Association of pre-intervention level of QOL among subjects with their selected clinical characteristics in the comparison group showed that extension of tuberculosis and the zone affected by tuberculosis in the social domain and symptoms of tuberculosis in environmental Te domain is influenced at p <0.05 level of significance There was no significant association of QoL with demographic variables. The intervention was effective in improving QoL among Tuberculosis patients.

To study the effect of meditation in mental health promotion

Today stressful and busy life has indulged every individual in the problems related to physical and mental health, social isolation and financial crunch which leads to psychosomatic disturbances. The present study aims to evaluate the efficacy of Meditation in promoting mental health in the professional population. This was a prospective, randomized, case-control study on 55 subjects who were administered for a training module for 4 months. Individual measurements were carried out at the baseline and after 4 months of practice in almost similar conditions. Two standard psychological evaluation tools were used i.e. WHO Quality of Life. Following 4 months practice of PM, there was an improvement in all domains of WHOQOL ranging from 3 points to 5.7 that is physical health (42.1%) There was an improvement in depression in 7 of 12 subjects. Meditation is a cost-effective, non-invasive intervention with minimal risk of adverse effects and can be safely recommended for the promotion of mental health in Individuals.

Advanced detection of spam and email filtering using natural language processing algorithms

Unsolicited bulk emails from random email addresses sent to a user's inbox are generally called junk or spam emails. 45% of all emails sent are spam and 14.5 billion spam emails are sent every single day. Around 36% of spam emails is content related to sales, advertising, and promotions that the recipient explicitly did not opt to receive. However, not all spam emails are used for this purpose. Spam emails are also sent for phishing purposes that deceive users and lead the recipients to malicious websites with unethical intentions. Numerous techniques have been developed to block such spam emails but a majority of users still receive them. This is because of the ability of the spammers to manipulate the filters. Spam costs businesses a whopping $20.5 billion every year. Even worse is that the cost of spam is likely to continue rising. Data indicates that losses to business will grow to $257 billion annually within a few years if the current rate of spam email is not decreased. To curb this problem, we present a method based on Natural Language Processing (NLP) for the filtration of spam emails in order to enhance online security. The technique proposed in this research paper is an approach which stepwise blocks spam mail based on the sender's email address along with the content of the email. This paper presents a proposed NLP system using N-gram model, Word Stemming algorithm and Bayesian Classification algorithm for detection of spam content and effectively filtering it.

Research perspectives in Siddha Varmam therapy

Siddha system is one of the oldest medical systems in the world. Siddhars, the fore-runners of this medical system served the community with many special therapies and Varmam is one among them. Varmam is the vital life energy points located in the human body. 108 main points have been identified by the Siddhars. The term Varmam also indicates the therapeutic manipulation of specific points in which the pranic energy is found concentrated. Even though Varmam therapy has been in existence for centuries, research in Varmam is still in the toddler stage. Central Council for Research in Siddha has the mandate to do research in Varmam. Standardization is the foremost component in any research. There are no specific guidelines to standardize the Varmam therapy. Just as a therapeutic interventional pre-clinical study, the standardization of Varmam is considered a pre-clinical one. Standardization of Varmam is comprised of mapping of Varmam points, the establishment of a relationship with Nadi, standardization of pressure given to Varmam points, standardization of techniques of applying pressure, physiological correlation of Varmam, standardization with respect to bioenergy field and therapeutic grouping of Varmam points. This paper deals with the research perspective of Varmam.
