Abstract: Currently, all SARS-CoV-2 detection measures make use of RT-PCR test, and its results are generally reported as either positive or negative, which tells us if a person is infected. However, to contain the pandemic, what we need to know is whether that person is infectious or in other words, 'can he spread the disease?' It's critical to know that the RT-PCR test does give an extra degree of the viral load within the test. This perusing is called the cycle threshold (Ct) value. [1] Prove recommends that detailing this Ct value (calculated viral load) can help in a higher elucidation of the condition, additionally in taking clinical choices. The conclusion, screening, and reconnaissance depend on an extremely intense respiratory disorder coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) reverse transcriptase polymerase chain response (RT-qPCR) tests, and comes about being for the most part detailed to the requesting physician as positive or negative. [2] In any case, the test does give a degree of the viral load within the test, in what is called the cycle threshold (Ct) value. Through this article we suggest guidelines which announcing this Ct value, or a calculated viral load, can help in the elucidation and clinical choices in conjunction with its importance and interference.

Abstract: Syndactyly is a Greek word meaning fused digits, may involve fusion of the soft tissues with or without bony fusion. It is regarded as the most common congenital defect of the hand, detected in 1 out of every 2000 live births, twice as common in males, and more among the Caucasians. This is a 10-month-old male infant that was referred for plain radiograph of the right hand on account of completely fused 2nd to 5th digits and an incompletely fused 1st digit with medial deviation since birth. The plain radiograph showed soft tissue fusion of the 2nd to 4th web spaces completely with a partially fused 1st web space. There is associated fusion of the distal phalanges of the 4th and 5th digit, foreshortening of the 3rd and 4th metacarpals with the middle phalanges of the 2nd and 5th digits. There is flexion of the interphalangeal joint and medial deviation of the 1st digit. There is also haphazard arrangement of the metacarpals and phalanges most especially the 3rd and 4th digits. Prominence of the thenar and hypothenar eminences with mild ulnar deviation of the entire right hand were also demonstrated. The contralateral left hand appears within normal limits, a complementary ultrasound showed normal abdominal organ situs. A diagnosis of congenital syndactyly most likely the complex-complicated form in a 10-month-old infant was established. The surgical repair to establish function and achieve excellent aesthetics was deferred until the child clocks about 24-months of age. We report a case of congenital syndactyly of the right hand due to its radiographic form of presentation in this 10-month-old infant.

The essential target of this examination is to make a similar investigation (Simple normal) on the Share Price Movement of TATA Motor Ltd and TVS Motor Ltd in India. India turned into the fourth-biggest auto showcase in 2018 with deals expanding 8.3 per cent year-on-year to 3.99 million units. It was the seventh biggest producer of business vehicles in 2018.

Abstract: Spinal osteochondroma are basically of two forms, these are spinal osteochondromas in patients with multiple osteochondromas and solitary osteochondromas occurring in the spine. Osteochondromas are more prevalent among the male gender and has an age of onset between 20-30 years. This is a 27-year-old lady that was referred for plain radiograph of the cervical region on account of a hard mass on the left aspect of the neck that was slowly growing for two years duration. He patient also complained of occasional left shoulder, forearm, wrist and hand pain with occasional numbness. The plain radiography was done in both anterior-posterior and lateral projection, showed a soft tissue density fullness and an expansile missed sclerotic and lucent lesion/mass involving the spinous processes of the second to sixth cervical vertebrae. The expansile, and mixed sclerotic and lucent appearance of this area proffered the differential of a solitary cervical spinal osteochondroma. The patient had surgical excision of the tumor, and histopathologic assessment of the tumor confirmed osteochondroma. We report the radiologic finding of a case of Solitary cervical spine osteochondroma in a 27-year-old lady due to its rare nature and presentation.

Abstract: This paper deals with the analysis of family factors that influence the educational and therefore professional decisions of adolescents. The educational-professional decisions of adolescents are products of complex and parallel processes and the influence of parents on them is internationally diachronic and important. Initially, a presentation and analysis of the conceptual approaches of decision-making is attempted and then a historical presentation of research data concerning the parental connection and influence on the educational-vocational decisions of adolescents is made. The influencial factors that are being considered are those of the parents’ professions, the grammatical knowledge and the educational background of the family, the family’s economic situation, the gender of adolescents and the expectations and unfulfilled wishes of the parents. It is also required to mention the crucial role of functional-authoritative parenting and the negative influence of parental over-involvement.

Abstract: The study investigated the contributions of Teachers’ variables- qualification and subject specialization, to the academic achievement of students in basic science in selected secondary schools. The population of the study comprised all the students and all the science teachers from all the public secondary schools. A sample of 200 students and 100 teachers was selected from the population, using the proportionate stratified random sampling techniques. Two research questions were raised to guide the study, while two null hypotheses were formulated and tested at 0.05 levels of significances. The study used two validated instruments to collect data. The mean and standard deviation were used to answer the research questions while the null hypotheses were tested using ANOVA. The findings revealed that: teachers’ higher academic qualification significantly influenced students’ achievement; teachers’ subject major significantly contributed to students achievement in basic science; the findings also revealed no significant difference in the mean achievement scores of students taught by teachers with different educational qualifications, The study shows both positive and negative effects of interaction of teacher background variables on students ‘academic achievement. Based on the findings, it was recommended that employment of basic science teachers should be based on qualification and subject specialization, basic science teacher should be encouraged by government to attend professional training regularly, and Government agencies saddled with the recruitment of teachers should step up recruitment efforts by hiring teachers who have high academic qualification so that students’ academic achievement and interest can be sustained.

Abstract: This paper, based on an empirical study, analyses the scopes, forms and nature of people’s participation in the urban local governance process in Bangladesh. It provides insight into why and how representative democracy has failed to ensure active citizen participation. In doing so, it explores the underlying socio-political, institutional and legal factors that should be taken into account when implementing interventions aimed at encouraging more inclusive participatory local governance practices. This paper argues that the institutional design of the urban local government system largely follows the political elites’ intention of consolidating political power bases. This in turn severely narrows down the scope for citizen’s participation in the governance process.
