Abstract:

<em>The primary objective of this project is to conduct a study on the design and analysis of a G+4 boys hostel building using ETABS software. This project involves the planning, design, and structural analysis of a four-storied special residential building that will accommodate 100 students. The building is designed to include various facilities, such as five attached rooms, shared rooms, washrooms (WC), bath areas, kitchen, and a common mess. The structural design is performed using the limit state method, adhering to relevant codes and standards to ensure safety, stability, and functionalit

Abstract:

In animal studies, the combination of in utero fluoride exposure and low iodine has greater negative effects on offspring learning and memory than either alone, but this has not been studied in children. We evaluated whether the maternal urinary iodine concentration (MUIC) modifies the association between maternal urinary fluoride (MUF) and boys’ and girls’ intelligence. We used data from 366 mother–child dyads in the Maternal–Infant Research on Environmental Chemicals Study. We corrected trimester-specific MUF and MUIC for creatinine, and averaged them to yield our exposure variables (MUFCRE,

In the July 2011 Gazette Paseau [1] considers a population in which each birth is an independent event with probability g of being a girl and b of being a boy (b + g = 1). He supposes that, due to a preference for girls, all couples stop after producing k girls, where k is an integer greater or equal to 1. Each new birth will, even after some couples have stopped producing, still have the probability g of being a girl and b of being a boy. Paseau correctly states and shows that this will mean that the ratioExpected number of girl births : Expected number of boy births is g : b.So it is the sam

Abstract. The availability of iodinated salt containing 20 mg of iodine as iodate/kg salt consumed on a voluntary basis enabled us to investigate its effect on goitre prevalence and iodine excretion in urine in a longitudinal, prospective, randomized study over 4 years. With this salt, under the assumption of a consumption of 5 g salt per day and person, an additional intake of 100 μg of iodine can be achieved. The study was performed on initially 334 children (168 boys, 166 girls) at the age of 10 years living in an area of iodine deficiency. After 4 years, 286 children still participated in
