Abstract: We consider a mathematical model of drug therapy for chronic myelogenous leukemia for an individual patient over a fixed time horizon. The disease dynamics are given by a system of ordinary differential equations that describe the interaction between naive T cells, effector T cells and leukemic cancer cells in a hypothetical patient. We introduce two drug therapies into this model, one a targeted therapy, and the other a broad cytotoxic therapy. Our goal is to find treatment regimens that minimize the cancer cell count and the deleterious effects of the drugs for a given patient. We examine the control setting analytically, and include numerical solutions to illustrate the optimal regimens under various assumptions. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

AbstractThe present study ‘Effect of after school care on psycho - social development of young children’ was conducted on 160 children (80 boys, 80 girls) aged 3 to 6 years drawn from Ludhiana city. The sample was evenly distributed between purposely selected four settings namely mother care, grand parent care, domestic aid care and day care with 40 respondents in each setting. Early intervention developmental profile scale was used to gather the relevant information. Results of the study revealed that psycho-social development (perceptual, cognitive, social, speech and language) of children under mother care was the best followed by the grand parent care which was almost at par with care given in good quality day care setting. Of all the developments social development scored the maximum among the respondents in all the four after school care settings.
