Perkash, A., Nair, A., Bhorchi, R., and Walia, B. N. S. (1971). Archives of Disease in Childhood, 46, 45. Haemolytic anaemia in Indian childhood cirrhosis. Fifty-five patients with Indian childhood cirrhosis were investigated for the occurrence of haemolysis and for its possible underlying mechanisms. Increased haemolysis was present in 76°/o of patients, and was severe in 12%. The degree of an...

• In the present work we propose a study of the proportional mean residual life model using quantile functions instead of distribution functions employed in the traditional approach. Through various quantile-based reliability concepts ageing properties of the model are discussed. We present characterizations of the proportional mean residual life model by properties of measures of uncertainty i...

Human respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a ubiquitous virus of worldwide distribution and is the leading cause of infant morbidity from respiratory infections. By the age of two years nearly all children have been infected and can cause severe bronchiolitis and pneumo‐ nia in this age group (Hall et al., 2009). Nearly 100% of children in the USA are infected with the virus by 2 to 3 years of ...

A discontinuous Galerkin shallow water model on the cubed sphere is developed, thereby extending the transport scheme developed by Nair et al. The continuous flux form nonlinear shallow water equations in curvilinear coordinates are employed. The spatial discretization employs a modal basis set consisting of Legendre polynomials. Fluxes along the element boundaries (internal interfaces) are app...

A mass-deformation of three euclidean dimensional N = 1 SYM theory is carried out. The gluons of the theory are made massive using a nonlocal gauge and Poincare invariant mass term due to Nair, while fermion masses are introduced using standard gaussian terms. The underlying supersymmetry algebra is shown to be a non-central extension of the Poincare algebra by the spacetime rotation group so(3...

AIM (1) To study the behavior disorders in children between 5 to 15 years. (2) To study the role of stress in causing behavior disorders. (3) To interpret the orofacial findings in children with behavior disorders. (4) Correlate the orofacial findings with behavior disorder. MATERIALS AND METHODS Ninty children with behavior problems between age of 5 to 15 years along with their parents who v...

Trichobezoars can rarely present with obstruction. This is usually due to collection of a hair ball in the stomach. We encountered an interesting case of small bowel obstruction due to a jejunal trichobezoar. The treatment generally is an enterotomy with removal of the hair ball. We report a case of a 29-year-old post partum female who presented to us with sub acute intestinal obstruction. Expl...
