Preparation and characterization of tb, n co-doped titania nanocomposites

In this paper, Tb-N-TiO2 nanocomposites with different calcined temperature were synthesized through a facile step by sol-gel method. Besides, structural characteristics, morphology and photochemical properties of the nanocomposites were characterizedby X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photo-electron spectroscopy (XPS), UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) and Scanning electron microscope (SEM). The results showed that the Tb-N-TiO2 composites were existed in the form of anatase.

Effect of paranyama exercises on functional capacity in patient with interstitial lung disease

Background: Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by a common presentation of cough (mostly dry), breathlessness, and related symptoms with a systemic disorder when present. ILD is also recognized as diffuse parenchymal lung disease (DPLD) and is divided into two categories: idiopathic interstitial pneumonia (IIP) and other than IIP. Interstitial lung disease and pulmonary fibrosis are two types of lung diseases that involve inflammation and fibrosis of the lung parenchyma.

Effect of aerobic exercise versus yoga on depression among women with breast cancer: a randomized controlled trial

Introduction: To compare between the effect of aerobic exercise and yoga on depression in breast cancer women. Methods: Overall, 40 breast cancer women suffering from depression, aged 25-45 years, were divided randomly into two groups equal in number. Group A (n=20) received aerobic exercise, while group B (n=20) received yoga. Both groups received 24 sessions over an eight weeks’ period. Depression was evaluated pre and 8 weeks post intervention for all participants with Zung Self-Rating depression Scale.

Idiopathic pulmonary vein thrombosis: clot picks vein instead of artery

Pulmonary vein thrombosis (PVT) is an uncommon disease with a very similar clinical presentation as pulmonary artery embolism. We present a case of a 53 year old female patient who presented with chest pain and shortness of breath and was later found to have pulmonary vein thrombosis. The diagnoses was established with a CT scan of chest which showed a filling defect in a right segmental pulmonary vein. Patient was started on heparin drip and later discharged on oral apixiban. Three month later, CT scan showed resolution of thrombus.
