The soil and groundwater of Asanpara village (Bhagobangola I block) of Murshidabad district are contaminated with non-permissible limit of arsenic and other elements that co-exist with arsenic in various chemical compounds like arsenopyrite, ferrous arsenate, ferric arsenate, etc. Arsenic resistant bacteria (ARB) were isolated from arsenic contaminated soil of Asanpara and biochemically characterized. These bacteria were identified as Lysinibacillus sp. and Bacillus safensis by 16S rDNA sequencing and subsequent phylogenetic analysis. Isolated strains could grow in 76.98 mM and 88.53 mM of arsenite, and 560.88 mM and 721.13 mM of arsenate, respectively. ARB also show hypertolerance to other toxic metals like copper (Cu2+), cobalt (Co2+) and chromium (Cr3+). The level of arsenic and other heavy metal tolerance is unprecedented. Based on the inhibition of urease activity of isolated ARB by cadmium, the bacteria can be used to detect the presence of cadmium. These bacteria could biotransform arsenite into arsenate, which explains its uninhibited growth at very high arsenic concentration. The change in size of these bacteria depicted by scanning electron microscopy is a defence mechanism against arsenic stress Lysinibacillus sp. shows 32.33%, 31.29% and 31.20% bioremediation, whereas Bacillus safensis shows 37.54%, 35.26% and 35.24% bioremediation in the presence of 0.027 mM (2 ppm), 0.133 mM (10 ppm) and 0.667 mM (50 ppm) arsenic, respectively. Also, these bacteria could bioaccumulate or bioadsorb arsenic. The bioremediation potential of isolated ARB could be exploited for removal of arsenic from soil, groundwater and wastewater.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Spiral MR imaging has several advantages compared with Cartesian MR imaging that can be leveraged for added clinical value. A multicenter multireader study was designed to compare spiral with standard-of-care Cartesian postcontrast structural brain MR imaging on the basis of relative performance in 10 metrics of image quality, artifact prevalence, and diagnostic benefit. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Seven clinical sites acquired 88 total subjects. For each subject, sites acquired 2 postcontrast MR imaging scans: a spiral 2D T1 spin-echo, and 1 of 4 routine Cartesian 2D T1 spin-echo/TSE scans (fully sampled spin-echo at 3T, 1.5T, partial Fourier, TSE). The spiral acquisition matched the Cartesian scan for scan time, geometry, and contrast. Nine neuroradiologists independently reviewed each subject, with the matching pair of spiral and Cartesian scans compared side-by-side, and scored on 10 image-quality metrics (5-point Likert scale) focused on intracranial assessment. The Wilcoxon signed rank test evaluated relative performance of spiral versus Cartesian, while the Kruskal-Wallis test assessed interprotocol differences. RESULTS: Spiral was superior to Cartesian in 7 of 10 metrics (flow artifact mitigation, SNR, GM/WM contrast, image sharpness, lesion conspicuity, preference for diagnosing abnormal enhancement, and overall intracranial image quality), comparable in 1 of 10 metrics (motion artifacts), and inferior in 2 of 10 metrics (susceptibility artifacts, overall extracranial image quality) related to magnetic susceptibility (P < .05). Interprotocol comparison confirmed relatively higher SNR and GM/WM contrast for partial Fourier and TSE protocol groups, respectively (P < .05). CONCLUSIONS: Spiral 2D T1 spin-echo for routine structural brain MR imaging is feasible in the clinic with conventional scanners and was preferred by neuroradiologists for overall postcontrast intracranial evaluation.

High Energy Physics::Experiment ,Nuclear Experiment ,lcsh:Physics ,lcsh:QC1-999 - Abstract
A measurement of dijet correlations in p–Pb collisions at sNN=5.02 TeV with the ALICE detector is presented. Jets are reconstructed from charged particles measured in the central tracking detectors and neutral energy deposited in the electromagnetic calorimeter. The transverse momentum of the full jet (clustered from charged and neutral constituents) and charged jet (clustered from charged particles only) is corrected event-by-event for the contribution of the underlying event, while corrections for underlying event fluctuations and finite detector resolution are applied on an inclusive basis. A projection of the dijet transverse momentum, kTy=pT,jetch+nesin(Δφdijet) with Δφdijet the azimuthal angle between a full and charged jet and pT,jetch+ne the transverse momentum of the full jet, is used to study nuclear matter effects in p–Pb collisions. This observable is sensitive to the acoplanarity of dijet production and its potential modification in p–Pb collisions with respect to pp collisions. Measurements of the dijet kTy as a function of the transverse momentum of the full and recoil charged jet, and the event multiplicity are presented. No significant modification of kTy due to nuclear matter effects in p–Pb collisions with respect to the event multiplicity or a PYTHIA8 reference is observed.

The aim of this work is to detect and estimate the level of selected heavy metals (copper and lead) in milk and milk products in Chittagong City Corporation Areas of Bangladesh. The most important milk and milk products that are likely to be an important contributor to heavy metal exposure was selected. Total 30 samples of milk and milk products were analyzed among these 20 raw milk samples was collected from 20 dairy farms around industrial area in Chittagong City and 10 milk product samples were collected from market in Chittagong City. Detection and estimation of the level of copper and lead were carried out by using “Analytikjena Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer, model: ZEEnit700P, Germany”. It was found that, most of all milk samples contain copper and lead copper and lead. The content of copper in most of all raw milk and milk products were in the range from 0.02 mg/kg to 0.25 mg/kg. The highest level of copper was found 0.244 mg/kg in milk products. The concentration of lead in milk and milk products were in the range from 0.007 mg/kg to 0.02 mg/kg. The highest concentration of lead was found 0.019 mg/kg in raw milk. These values were compared with standard allowable limit and also with the corresponding values of different countries available in literature.

The water quality and chemistry of the groundwater of the fluvial Bengal plains have been investigated. It has been found that shallow aquifers (< 50 m bgl) are contaminated in a few pockets, surrounded by areas with low arsenic (As)/As-free groundwater, while the deeper aquifer (> 100 m bgl) is generally free from As (< 10μg/L). It also reveals that multiple As mobilization processes are occurring simultaneously, rather than any single geochemical process. An attempt has been made to demonstrate the degree of As heterogeneity with groundwater quality, and this has been followed by a few local conditions. The study further suggests that the As distribution (spatio-vertical) helps to identify safe shallow aquifers, and several signatures (colour of the sediments/land use pattern/geomorphological features/local recharge events) are apparent that can be useful for formulating long-term mitigation options.

A critical analysis has been made on the long-term yearly and seasonal variations of ozone concentration at Varanasi (25°N, 83°E), India and Halley Bay (76°S, 27°W), a British Antarctic Service Station. The effect of O 3 depletion on night airglow emission of Li 6708 A line at Varanasi and Halley Bay has been studied. Calculations based on chemical kinetics show that the airglow intensity of Li 6708 A line has also been affected due to the depletion of O 3 concentration. The yearly variations and seasonal variations of intensities of Li 6708 A line for the above two stations are shown and compared. It has been shown that the rate of decrease of intensity of Li 6708 A line was comparatively more at Halley Bay due to dramatic decrease of Antarctic O 3 concentration.

We describe a ‘Design of Experiment’ (DOE) technique used to optimize the process parameters of a new commercially available emitter clean solution aimed to enhance the output efficiency of the cell. Emitter etch solutions are known to substantially improve efficiency by reducing surface recombination of charge carriers and increasing the short circuit current of the cell. We have used a full factorial design of experiment with three variables kept at two levels. Appropriate randomization of the run order and three centre points were chosen in order to reduce experimental errors. Adjacent multicrystalline wafers chosen for this experiment were subjected to acid texturization, phosphorus doping, diffusion and phosphosilicate glass etching before the emitter clean step. We chose mean emitter sheet resistance (Rsheet) (average over 25 positions on each wafer) as the response of this experiment. The aim was to achieve an increment of 10% on Rsheet after emitter clean. Voc scan of the wafers were done to validate the Rsheet increments observed. The results showed that H2O2 concentration and temperature had statistically significant effects on change of Rsheet. Regression analysis was used to predict the optimized parameters that may achieve a 10% increase of Rsheet. A validation run was carried out with this recipe in an automated production line and solar cells fabricated from this run showed a 0.18% (absolute) increase in efficiency and 15% (relative) reduction of recombination current density (Jo2) compared to standard reference cells processed without emitter clean.

To study the incidence, clinical presentation, and the response of anti-fungals in cases of fungal endophthalmitis following open globe injury.This is a prospective study of eight cases of post-traumatic fungal endophthalmitis among 110 patients who presented to us with open globe injury between August 2003 and January 2005. Patients with panophthalmitis were eviscerated and rest received intravitreal amphotericin B. Pars plana vitrectomy along with intravitreal miconazole was given in patients with inadequate response to intravitreal amphotericin.Two patients had panophthalmitis at the time of presentation and were eviscerated. Six different organisms were isolated from the culture of intraocular specimen of eight patients. The yield of vitreous aspirate was 87.5% and that of aqueous aspirate was 66.6%. Aspergillus sp. and Fusarium sp. were isolated in 62.5% of cases. Minimum inhibitory concentration of amphotericin B and miconazole was less than 3 microg/ml for all organisms except for Paecilomyces lilacinus and Fusarium solani, respectively. In total, 37.5% of patient had final visual acuity of 20/400 or better.Fungal endophthalmitis is a relatively rare complication of open globe injury. The final visual outcome after fungal endophthalmitis is dismal. Aspergillus fumigatus was found to be the most virulent organism. All organisms were found to be sensitive to amphotericin B, except P. lilacinus, which was sensitive to miconazole. Repeated intravitreal injection may be required to control the infection. The virulence of the organism and the site of injury are the main determinants of final visual outcome.

The Hutti–Maski schist belt is an important gold producing Archean greenstone belt in India. Mesothermal gold mineralization occurs within smoky quartz–sulfide veins occupying brittle–ductile shear zones. Principal ore minerals observed are arsenopyrite, pyrite, pyrrhotite, chalcopyrite, sphalerite, loellingite and gold. Although most of the gold occurs in native form, a substantial amount of gold is also present in the sulfides, especially within arsenopyrite in invisible form. Two stages of gold deposition occur in this area: (1) lattice bound invisible gold within sulfides, restricted to the shear fractures, a part of the primary gold depositional history; (2) native gold within sulfides as inclusions and as separate grains which may belong to another phase of hydrothermal fluid influx. Remobilization, reconstitution and concentration of the early phase might have formed the later phase. The substitution of Fe by Au within the sulfidic sites, adsorption–reduction and fluid rock interaction/phase immiscibility may be the plausible mechanisms for the invisible gold, microscopic substrates and visible gold respectively.

This paper presents the application of a genetic algorithm (GA) to the design and optimization of a nonplanar dipole array in light of its application at a cell-site antenna for mobile communication. Cell-site antennas demand widely different radiation patterns depending upon the geographical location, terrain, and interference conditions of the cell site. The theoretical analysis for the radiation characteristics of the array is developed first, and subsequently, the GA is applied for obtaining the optimized parameters of the array to obtain the desired pattern as needed in different application areas of the cell site. © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

The impedance and radiation properties of an electromagnetically fed concentric microstrip ring antenna using log-periodic principle is investigated experimentally and compared with those of two single ring resonators. The experimental result is verified numerically by Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) method. The variation of voltage standing wave ratio with frequency is also measured and computed numerically for both the single rings and concentric structure. The comparison between numerical and experimental results shows good agreement over a wide frequency range. The results indicate a considerable improvement of 1:2 VSWR bandwidth for the concentric structure.

The management of recurrent pleural effusion or pneumothorax has always been a cause for serious concern among chest physicians. Among the wide variety of agents that are available for pleurodesis, povidone iodine is now perhaps the most sought after agent as it is cheap, easily available, effective and safe. This study was conducted to establish the efficacy and safety of povidone iodine as an agent for pleurodesis in patients with recurrent pleural effusion and pneumothorax.A total of 38 consecutive patients with symptomatic malignant or recurrent pleural effusion and pneumothorax received povidone iodine for pleurodesis over a period of 18 months. The mean follow-up period was 10.2 months, with a standard deviation of 2.9 months.Out of the 38 patients, 29 had malignant pleural effusion, eight had recurrent pneumothorax and one had tubercular pleural effusion which was nonresponsive to antitubercular therapy. A complete response with no recurrence during follow-up was obtained in 34 (89.5 percent) patients. All the cases of failure had malignant pleural effusion. Three (7.9 percent) patients experienced intense chest pains after the installation of sclerosing agent, but they recovered with immediate symptomatic management.Recurrent pleural effusion or pneumothorax due to any cause may be managed effectively and safely by chemical pleurodesis with povidone iodine. It may be considered as the agent of choice to achieve pleurodesis, especially in resource constrained countries like India, as it is inexpensive and easily available.

This community-based cross-sectional study was carried out to determine the prevalence of hypertension and variation of blood pressure with age among adolescents in an urban slum of Chetla, Kolkata, India. A total of 1081 adolescents aged 10-19 years were involved in the study. The prevalence of hypertension was 2.9% (31) and highest prevalence (5.6%) was observed in the age group of 18-19 years. The mean systolic and diastolic blood pressure was higher in males than females. Among males and females, average increase of mean systolic blood pressure was found to be 2.26mmHg and 1.95mmHg per year respectively. The mean diastolic blood pressure increased by 1.55 mmHg and 1.42mmHg per year, respectively. The age spurt of rise in mean systolic blood pressure in males was found at 10-11, 13-14, and 16-17 years age groups, whereas in females it was observed in 12-13, and 17-18 years age groups. The age spurt of rise in mean diastolic blood pressure in males was observed in the age group 16-17 years and in females it was noted in the age group 11-12, and 17-18 years. In conclusion, blood pressure measurement should be done routinely during health check up of adolescents to initiate secondary level of prevention at the earliest.

Wireless distributed sensor networks (WDSN) consists of numerous sensors, deployed at high density in regions requiring surveillance and monitoring. Researchers are currently resolving different technical aspects such as energy efficiency, network lifetime, scalability, load balancing etc. of this distributed network based on different applications. Clustering sensor nodes is an effective technique to achieve these goals rather than conventional routing protocols like direct transmission, minimum transmission energy routing or other relevant protocols applicable for static networks. Adapting this approach, in this paper we propose an enhanced energy efficient adaptive clustering (EEEAC) protocol based on the residual energy of each node within the network. This protocol achieves fairly uniform clusterhead distribution over the entire network. With a careful selection of clustering parameters, the simulation results demonstrate that EEEAC is able to distribute energy dissipation more effectively among the sensors. So, this protocol enhances the system lifetime over the previous protocols.

Handoff has the prime importance in cellular wireless systems. With the development of 3G cellular communications there is a need of efficient and faster handoff algorithm with minimum delay and minimum call dropping probability. As the number of mobile user increases with the demand of both voice and multimedia data services, the demand for efficient handoff algorithms also increase. In this paper, we have focused on preemptive priority handoff scheme for voice handoff request calls with higher priority. From the performance analysis, it is observed that preemptive handoff scheme is better than non-preemptive priority handoff scheme.

Anisotropic etching of (100) single crystal silicon (SCS) in potassium hydroxide (KOH) -- water solutions and Ethylene diamine pyrocatechol (EDP) -- water solutions has been investigated for fabrication of a seismic mass -- spring structure used in inertial accelerometers. The vertical anisotropic etching rate and lateral undercut rates have been experimentally determined in both the cases. For EDP the effect of temperature on the etching rates have been found to follow an Arrhenius type of temperature dependence. The activation energies vary from 0.17 eV to 0.58 eV for EDP solutions of varying concentration. The effect of addition of iso-propyl alcohol to KOH have resulted in reduction of etching rates. The basic design rules for etching a seismic mass structure with vertical end walls on (100) silicon wafer are highlighted.

Routine UIP coverage status in the state of West Bengal and three selected Municipal Corporation areas (Calcutta, Howrah and Siliguri) were studied during 1997-98 and 1998-99. Also, UIP coverage status in the 'high risk' areas of the State (areas which reported Polio cases during 1998) was studied during 1998-99. UIP coverage in the state of West Bengal was only 54.3% in 1997-98, which further declined to 48.1% in 1998-99. In the three urban areas, UIP coverage ranged between 57.3%-70.9% in 1997-98, which further declined to 29.6%-47.1% in 1998-99. Antigenwise coverage revealed very poor performance with DPT3, OPV3, and Measles in 1997-98 and further decline in 1998-99. Dropout rate was also very high. In 1998-99 drop-out rate ranged between 30.1% to 54.2% in different studied areas. Some other studies suggested that PPI activities, which are very visible and targetted programme, may adversely affect routine UIP services. There is urgent need for further probing to identify the reasons for such poor state of affairs, keeping PPI angle in mind and to initiate remedial measure urgently.

In third generation personal communication system a significant amount of signaling load will have to be carried by the finite capacity radio bandwidth owing to the diverse functions of the huge number of the mobile terminals. Here, we propose and analyze an intelligent paging method that reduces considerable amount of paging signaling load and cost of locating an MT subject to a predefined delay constraint. The price to be paid for this saving of radio bandwidth is the extra processing power. An analytical model is developed so as to describe the performance for different CMR. The performance of our proposed scheme is compared with [1] and it is shown that the method operates well under different delay bounds.

Accelerometers are key components of various motion control systems ranging in use from inertial guidance of rockets and satellite launch vehicles to safety applications in the automotive industry. The accelerometers that are used for spare inertial systems are characterized by high resolution, small bandwidth, large working range and excellent linearity. Current advances in this field are based on silicon micromachining. Silicon bulk and surface micromachined accelerometers offer advantages of reduced size and weight, less power consumption and the use of a fabrication process derived form an already well established semiconductor fab technology. Of the various approaches to silicon micromachined accelerometers, two are in a well advanced state of development. The first is the capacitive force balanced type and the second the piezoresistive type. The capacitive approach has the advantage of higher stability and resolution and lower temperature coefficients. But it requires proximal detection circuitry to prevent parasitics to overwhelm the circuit. A new approach reported recently uses a silicon micromachined cantilever beam which acts as a Fabry Perot interferometer when light form an optical fiber is impinged on it. In this paper we overview all the approaches and try to select a suitable candidate for use in space borne inertial systems.© (1999) COPYRIGHT SPIE--The International Society for Optical Engineering.

An evaluation of the Pulse Polio Immunisation Programme (PPI), 1995-96 in West Bengal was undertaken. It was observed that the PPI coverage (with two rounds) was 84.1%. Variations in the PPI coverage level were documented in relation to age, sex, residential status and parental literacy status of the beneficiaries. However, significantly lower PPI coverage was observed among Muslims (p0.001) and Scheduled Tribes (p0.01). The principal agency responsible for disseminating information about PPI was identified to be the multipurpose health workers. Some of the major reasons for non-acceptance of PPI were lack of information, illness of the child, absence of the child on the "PPI day", lack of faith in immunisation and fear of adverse reaction.

A 5 year sentinel surveillance (1989-93) of paralytic poliomyelitis and neonatal tetanus was undertaken at a rural Medical College Hospital at Burdwan, West Bengal. Poliomyelitis incidence showed an overall declining trend, which corroborated with the increased OPV coverage over the years. Incidence was more in males than females. Male:female ratio varied between 2.31:1 to 1.2:1. From 1989 to 1992, age-shift in poliomyelitis was observed when more cases were occurring above 1 year subjects. Cases were reported to be high during the months June to September every year. Incidence of neonatal tetanus (NNT) also showed a declining trend during the 5 year study period. A male preponderance was observed. NNT cases were more prevalent during the months between August and November. In an attempt for eradication of paralytic poliomyelitis and elimination of NNT, containment and other public health measures were undertaken a part of surveillance activities. The obstacles encountered in the surveillance system, as well as lacunae identified in undertaking appropriate health measures was discussed.The authors report on the 5-year sentinel surveillance (1989-93) of paralytic poliomyelitis and neonatal tetanus (NNT) undertaken at the rural Medical College Hospital at Burdwan, West Bengal. Overall, the incidence of poliomyelitis showed a declining trend in relation to increased OPV coverage over the years. From 1989 to 1992, an age shift in poliomyelitis was observed among children over 1 year old. Similarly to poliomyelitis, NNT also showed a declining trend during the 5-year study period. The NNT cases were observed to increased during the months from August to November. While performing the surveillance activities, a number of obstacles were encountered in data collection, data recording, and data transmission. Some of these problems include lack of motivation with concerned personnel, shortage of manpower particularly in the pediatric department and erroneous recording of address, nonrecording of immunization status and final diagnosis in the admission registry. As part of the surveillance activities, public health measures were undertaken to eliminate paralytic poliomyelitis and NNT.

The performance of the Diarrhoeal Training cum Treatment Unit (DTTU) of NRS Medical College and Hospital, Calcutta, in a 2-year period was evaluated by record analysis. The study revealed that 73.6% cases out of a total 4349 could be successfully managed at the oral rehydration therapy (ORT) area and only 16.5% cases required indoor admission. Rest of the cases (9.9%) with "no dehydration" were sent home with advice. There were 84.7% cases out 3919 dehydration cases who could be successfully treated by ORT and only 15.3% required intravenous (i.v.) therapy. A definite decline was also evident in the proportion of diarrhoea cases requiring antibiotic therapy (13.5% in 1991 to 6.8% in 1992). The case fatality rate due to diarrhoea was 1.7% in 1992. Had all cases of diarrhoea with dehydration being admitted and treated with i.v. fluids and antibiotics, the estimated cost would have been Rs 14.2 lakhs, which with ORT, actually cost Rs 2.4 lakhs. Thus estimated total cost reduction was to the extent of Rs 11.8 lakhs in a 2-year period.The Diarrheal Training with Treatment Unit (DTTU) was established in the Department of Pediatrics, NRS Medical College and Hospital, in Calcutta, India, in 1990, to promote use of oral rehydration therapy (ORT) in diarrhea in children 0-5 years of age. To evaluate the success of this effort, a retrospective review was conducted of the 4349 child diarrhea cases presenting to DTTU in 1991-92. 3919 children (90.1%) were dehydrated at admission; the nondehydrated cases received counseling only and were discharged. 3202 children (73.6%) with diarrhea-related dehydration were successfully treated with ORT; intravenous fluids were administered in 598 (15.3%) of these cases. 717 children (16.5%) required hospital admission; 83.4% of these children received intravenous fluids. The proportion of diarrhea cases requiring antibiotics decreased from 13.5% in 1991 to 6.8% in 1992. Case fatality was 1.8% in 1991 and 1.7% in 1992. The actual cost of treatment was Rs. 1,50,048 in 1991 and Rs. 91,178 in 1992. These amounts represent savings of Rs. 6,00,912 and 5,77,867, respectively, over what would have been the costs if all cases had been treated on an inpatient basis with intravenous fluids and antibiotics. These findings confirm the effectiveness of DTTU's strategy of ORT management of children with diarrheal dehydration combined with proper training and motivation of both mothers and health workers.

A 5-year sentinel surveillance of diphtheria from 1989 to 1993 was undertaken at a rural medical college hospital. No significant change in the number of diphtheria cases was observed in spite of sustained high level of diphtheria, pertussis, tetanus vaccine-3 doses (DPT3) coverage. Most of the diphtheria cases occurred during July to November. Age distribution of diphtheria cases showed that more than 75% occurred above 2 years age (except in 1989) and around 65% cases above 3 years age. The age shift in diphtheria signified success of primary diphtheria immunisation, as well as indicated the lack of coverage with booster doses at appropriate ages. Because of high coverage with primary diphtheria immunisation there was decrease in circulating toxigenic C diphtheriae resulting in less natural boosting of antibody titre. Thus, in absence of booster immunisation, the older children and adults were more vulnerable to diphtheria. The findings of the study justified the need of emphasising importance of booster diphtheria immunisation at appropriate ages for effective control of diphtheria.

The incidence of stillbirths in "one year period" was studied by record analysis in a teaching hospital. A stillbirth rate of 38.4 per 1000 live births was observed. On admission 96.3% cases had some adverse foetal conditions detected readily. Leading factor detected was intra-uterine growth retardation (45.4%). Other major conditions observed were intra-uterine hypoxia (18.4%), malpresentation (11.9%), multiple pregnancy (8.3%). Birth weight was below 2000 g in 53.1% cases. Records showed 78.5% mothers had not received antenatal care.The Government of India has set the goal of reducing perinatal mortality from its present level of 46/1000 live births to under 35/1000 by the year 2000. This study investigated the characteristics of stillbirths at a teaching hospital in Calcutta, India, in 1993. During the 12-month study period, there were 8488 live births and 326 stillbirths (38.4/1000 live births). In 314 stillbirths (96.3%), there was some adverse fetal condition at hospital admission. These included intrauterine growth retardation (45.4%), fetal distress and intrauterine hypoxia (18.4%), malpresentation or malposition (11.9%), and multiple pregnancy (8.3%). Of the 309 stillborns in whom birth weight was recorded, 79.5% were below 2500 g and 53.1% were below 2000 g. Finally, in 218 (78.5%) of the 278 cases for which records were available, women received no antenatal care. These findings suggest that more widely accessible antenatal care, with special emphasis on intrauterine growth retardation, is essential to a reduction in the incidence of perinatal mortality in India.

Study of perinatal mortality in a Medical College Hospital revealed stillbirth rate as 38.4, early neonatal death rate as 29.3 and overall perinatal morality rate as 67.7 per 1000 live births. More than half (53.6%) of the perinatal deaths were in primipara and another 22.8% in mothers of parity more than 3. Most mothers (85.9%) did not receive adequate antenatal care services. On admission 35.1% mothers presented with some risk factors. The major risk factors identified were toxaemia of pregnancy (14.8%), severe anaemia (13%) and antepartum haemorrhage (2.6%).A study conducted at the NRS Medical College in Calcutta, India, reviewed all perinatal deaths recorded in 1993. There were 575 such deaths in 8488 live births, for a perinatal mortality rate of 67.7 per 1000 live births. This is substantially higher than the all-India perinatal mortality ratio of 42.3, because the Calcutta hospital serves as a major referral center for complicated pregnancies. There were 326 stillbirths (38.4 per 1000 live births) and 249 early neonatal deaths (29.3 per 1000 live births). 53.6% of the perinatal deaths involved primiparas and 22.8% involved mothers of parities above 3. 35.1% of mothers in perinatal mortality cases presented with pregnancy-related risk factors, including toxemia (14.8%), severe anemia (13%), and antepartum hemorrhage (2.6%). In 494 (85.9%) of the 575 deaths, antenatal care was absent or inadequate. Improved antenatal coverage is essential to the early detection and treatment of risk factors for perinatal mortality.

Use of ORT is saving 1 million diarrhoeal deaths each year among children. C.S.S.M. programme aims at preventing 70% diarrhoeal deaths, through widespread use of ORT. The present study was carried out to find out the extent of the problem of diarrhoea and utilisation of ORT in three districts of West Bengal. The results showed that the utilisation of ORT was 80.8%, 70.7% and 65% in Howrah, Hooghly and 24-Parganas (South) respectively, during attacks of diarrhoea. The continuing feeding rates were 60.1%, 62.7% and 55.5% in Howrah, Hooghly and 24-Parganas (South) respectively.In the early 1990s, a baseline survey was conducted in 3 districts of West Bengal, India, to determine the magnitude of diarrhea among children less than 5 years old and the rates of oral rehydration therapy (ORT) use and continuing feeding rate. The districts included Howrah, Hooghly, and 24-Parganas (South). Diarrhea prevalence was much lower in Hooghly than in Howrah and 24-Parganas (S) (5.9% vs. 14.2% and 14.5%, respectively; p 0.05). Since the survey was conducted during the non-monsoon season in Hooghly when diarrhea incidence tends to be low, the difference was likely due to seasonal variation. ORT use rates were 80.8% in Howrah, 70.7% in Hooghly, and 65% in 24-Parganas (S) which were much higher than those in Hibar (13%), Orissa (27%), and Assam (10%) in 1987 (p 0.05). Children in Howrah were much more likely to receive WHO recommended ORS than those in Hooghly and 24-Parganas(S) (40.9% vs. 28% and 29.6%, respectively; p 0.05). ORS access rates ranged from 24.9% in 24-Parganas(S) to 36.3% in Howrah, which are lower than the WHO targeted access rate of oral rehydration salts (ORS) (80%). The continuing feeding rates were 60.1% in Howrah, 62.7% in Hooghly, and 55.5% in 24-Parganas (S). The proportion of children who received either less food or no food during a diarrheal episode were still rather high (38.9% in Howrah, 37.3% in Hooghly, and 42.4% in 24-Parganas(S) but lower than those in other Indian districts (57-66%) in 1987. These findings show that India's Child Survival and Safe Mother Programme has much to accomplish to reach the goal of 70% reduction of deaths and 25% reduction of cases by the year 2000.
