Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) and Coronary artery heart Disease (CAD) isa critical condition occurring in ill patients. Our proposed system is to predict ARDS and CAD in hospitalized patients using only physiological signals as heart rate and breathing rate. This based on hypothesis testing is developed to detect whether subjects signals deviate from their initial states. The approach is applied on mechanically ventilated subjects in the MIMIC II database. Hybrid method for CAD diagnosis, including risk factor identification using correlation based feature subset selection with particle swam optimization search method and K-Means clustering algorithms. This proposed system is increasing the efficiency and accuracy of predicting the ARDS and CAD diseases.

Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) is an investment made by an foreign resident of an country to take the advantage of local befits such as lost cost labors, subsidies, etc.,. Developing countries like India need more FDIs to boost the economic activities of a country. Food Processing Industries has a special bench mark in FDI in India because it has a significant role nation's economic growth. Food Processing Industry connects Indian villagers who are the back bone of India and national and international investors in the market. Thus Food Processing Industry is emerged as a sunrise sector for FDI in India. This research study has been divided into three folds. First, analyze the contribution of Food Processing Industry in GVA (proxy for Economic Growth) in India, second analyze the share of Food Processing Industry in FDI in India and the third analyze share of Food Processing Industry total exports in India.

The Indian financial market and global markets experienced volatility due to pandemic. Estimations of volatility helps to measure the performance of the share price of the company. This paper studies about the impact of pandemic on the food processing companies listed in NSE. The objective of the paper is to examine the level of volatility prevailing in the selected food processing companies share returns. The daily returns of the companies are collected from January 1, 2019 to November 27, 2020.the returns of the selected period is considered for this purpose. GARCH model is used to capture the volatility of the returns. Findings reveal that the high volatility is experienced during the Covid period observations. While comparing the returns of the stock, the returns are positive during the Covid period than the Pre-Covid period. Thus reflecting the bounce back from the unprecedented Covid shocks in the market.

Entropy is used to address the concept of uncertainty or average level of information. Entropy is also known as “information entropy” which was introduced by Claude Shannon in 1948.

This paper aims to investigate the different basic services identified with food delivery system and investigating the chance of coordinating extra services that improve the food delivery services to guarantee on-time food supply. The fundamental linkage in the entire food supply chain is the delivery system where the delivery agents play a key role. Data was collected randomly through a survey to get an overall view of the food service delivery system. The relationship between the various factors that affect the food delivery process has been analyzed. The objective of the study is about to determine the factors affect online food delivery, relationship between customer and the delivery agent and factors responsible for on-time delivery of food. The methodology used here is, random sampling method and the primary data is about questionnaire and data was collected from 120 members in Erode. From the result, approximately having 50-75% of good relation with customers overall in all aspects.

A correlation coefficient is one of the statistical measures that helps to find the degree of changes to the value of one variable predict change to the value of another. Quadripartitioned single valued neutrosophic sets is an improvization of Wang's single valued neutrosophic sets. This chapter deals the improved correlation coefficients of quadripartitioned single valued neutrosophic sets, interval quadripartitioned neutrosophic sets, and investigates its properties. And this concept is also applied in multiple-attribute decision-making methods with quadripartitioned single valued neutrosophic environment and interval quadripartitioned neutrosophic environment. Finally an illustrated example is given in the proposed method to the multiple-attribute decision-making problems.

The present study has been evaluated the neuroprotective effect of Hypericum perforatum extract on the reaction of astrocytes in mice brain treated with an intraperitoneal injection of 1-Methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) (20 mg/kg with 2 hr intervals). Treatment with Hypericum perforatum extract (HPE) resulted in an inhibition of monoamine oxidase-B (MAO-B) activity and reduced astrocyte activation in striatal area induced by MPTP. The results show that HPE has neuromodulating effect against MPTP induced Parkinson's disease in mice.

The present study has been designed to evaluate the combined effect of bromocriptine (BRC) and Hypericum perforatum extract (HPE) on 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP)-induced Parkinson's disease in male Swiss Albino mice, which were randomly divided into seven groups of six animals each. Group I served as control. Groups II and III were given 300 mg/kg HPE (po) and 10 mg/kg BRC (i.p.) respectively, once daily for 7 days. The four doses of MPTP (20 mg/kg) were administered intraperitoneally with an interval of 2 h to the groups IV, V, VI and VII. The drug treatment was given to fifth group (10 mg/kg BRC; i.p), sixth group (300 mg/kg HPE; po) and seventh group (300 mg/kg HPE; po and 10 mg/kg BRC; i.p.) once in a day for 7 days and the dose on the first day was given 30 min prior to first MPTP injection. The rotarod test, hang test and forepaw stride length revealed significant improvement by the combined treatment. Dopamine and DOPAC levels were significantly improved (p0.05). There was a significant reduction in lipid peroxidation after the combined treatment (p0.05) and the antioxidant status was improved. These findings suggest that the combined effect of BRC and HPE was more pronounced than BRC or HPE alone. So it is concluded that the combined treatment might be preferable to either BRC (or) HPE alone in the effective clinical management of Parkinson's disease.

Grape seed extract treatment in ethylene glycol (EG) induced nephrotoxic mice improved antioxidant status and significantly decreased urinary lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and lipid peroxidation. The extract rendered antioxidant protection against oxidative stress induced by EG and may help in protecting renal tissue against EG toxicity.

Objective: Hypericum perforatum extract (HPE), known for its antidepressant effect, has been explored in the present study for its protective role against MPTP induced neurotoxicity. Materials and Methods: Mice were treated with 20 mg/kg of MPTP, four injections i.p., at 2 h intervals within 24 h. HPE was administered at different doses of 100, 200 and 300 mg/kg (p.o) in different groups once a day for seven days and the dose on the first day was given 30 min prior to first MPTP injection. Striatal dopamine (DA) and its metabolites, antioxidant status were analysed. The behavioural changes were studied using the rotarod test, hang test and narrow beam test. Results: HPE significantly ( P Conclusion: HPE possesses significant antioxidant activity and renders neuroprotection which was more pronounced at the dose of 300 mg/kg against MPTP induced neurotoxicity.
