The metabolic syndrome: Its prevalence and risk factors among policemen of Patiala, Punjab
Metabolic syndrome is characterized by a cluster of conditions, including hyperglycaemia, abdominal obesity, dyslipidaemia, and high blood pressure. The prevalence of this syndrome has varied markedly between different studies because of the lack of internationally agreed-upon criteria for its definition. Definitions of the syndrome have been proposed by the World Health Organization (WHO) in 1999, the U.S. IIIrd Report of National Cholesterol Education Program, Adult Treatment Panel (ATP III) in 2001, and the International Diabetes Federation in 2005 (IDF). Objectives of this paper include: To determine the prevalence of Metabolic Syndrome and risk factors in the policemen. To find out the association of sociodemographic variables with risk factors and Metabolic Syndrome. To find out the association between the risk factors and Metabolic Syndrome. Material and Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted amongst 155 policemen of Patiala; two types of data collection were done based on annual health reports (2017-18) and Structured Questionnaire. A Non-Probability Quota sampling was used to select respondents based on three criteria: Population group was Policemen, more than 40years of males having their Annual health reports (2017-18). Results: The prevalence of Metabolic Syndrome was 71%, abdominal obesity (97%), high triglycerides (66.5%), low HDL cholesterol (33.5%), high BP (73%), Fasting glucose more than >110mg/dl (31.60%), alcohol consumption (84%), non-vegetarian (93.5%) and severe stress (73%) among the policemen. The binary logistic analysis showed the significant relationship between the risk factors and metabolic syndrome, risk factors including clinical parameters, individual medical history of low HDL cholesterol; diabetes; food preference, physical activity during working hours. The current study found that the majority of the policemen are vulnerable to metabolic syndrome and associated risk factors were responsible for developing it.

Design and manufacturing of Valve lapping machine
Automobile maintenance could be a major space within the trade of automobile and additionally a significant financial gain to the business. In present, combustion engine maintenance is explicit as an important section in automobile maintenance and also the Valve Lapping method that's subjected during this thesis is finished throughout IC engine maintenance. this way employed in most automobile maintenance businesses for Valve lapping method aren't effective and consume heaps of operating hours.’ Valve lapping Machine’ for combustion Engine could be a machine designed to beat these issues by minimizing the human involvement within the method. The thesis consists of the background in coming up with the machine, methodologies used, results obtained by knowledge analysis so as to optimize the planning and style of the valve lapping machine. lapping is a ma-chinning method within which 2 surfaces area unit rubbed alongside associate abrasive between them, by hand movement or employing a machine. this could take 2 forms. the primary style of lapping(traditionally referred to as grinding), involves rubbing a brittle material like glass against a surface like iron or glass itself (also referred to as the "lap" or grinding tool) with associate abrasive like aluminium oxide, jeweller's ,rouge, optician's rouge, emery, carbide, diamond, etc., between them. The lapping machine Stellite as associate abrasive has been developed and it's been determined that the time needed for getting a particular surface compared to standard methodology is a smaller amount. A lapping machine with suction is developed the suction is connected to the valve manifold that's in grips with the cylinder seat because of the mechanism of rotation in the dextral and anticlockwise direction the operation of lapping is performed. The rotation motion is provided by the utilization of Cam and Follower. A programming board referred to as Arduino is employed to realize the required motion at a specific measure. a correct comparison is formed with manual operations and it's been found that the machine becomes profitable once a breakeven purpose of forty-eight days. The time needed for the lapping of 3-cylinder head Stellite as abrasive is concerning forty-five minutes wherever because it takes concerning an hour for lapping while not using Stellite. roughly ten Cylinder heads are lapped. so, productivity is improved by Stellite as abrasive.

Analytical method validation of Cypermethrin and Quinalphos Emulsion Concentrate (EC) Formulation by Reverse Phase High Performance Liquid Chromatography (R-HPLC)
The Quinalphos and Cypermethrin molecules are being used alone and a combination as an effective insecticide successfully in the agriculture and domestic area of application. Both the molecules (Quinalphos and Cypermethrin) being used large quantity in the environmental application and the residue of these insecticide has to be controlled by applying a required quantity with in dissipation time of these molecules. These molecules are also toxic to humans and animals hence the lowest concentration also has to be detected for monitoring and controlling purpose. A simple HPLC analytical method; in a single run both the molecule was detected at 0.4mg/L concentration. With the Apollo Silica 5µ (250 mm × 4.6 mm) HPLC column; acetonitrile and water as a mobile phase with ration of 80:20 (volume/volume) at 1.5 ml/min. flow rate. The detection wavelength is 316 nm for Quinalphos and 278nm for Cypermethrin were detected by the PDA detector of Shimadzu LC2030 model HPLC. The results of the analysis deliver that the proposed RP-HPLC method is simple, rapid, precise and accurate, which is useful for the identification and quantifications of these molecules interims of validation parameters viz., separation, system suitability, System Precision and linearity in a simple HPLC analysis.

Just In Time (JIT) system in Supply Chain Management and Toyota production
the theme of this paper is to justify the effectiveness of Just in time system in supply chain management and how the company can benefit from this strategy for its supply chain operations. The automobile company Toyota tried to understand the limitations and drawbacks of Henry’s just in time system with more focus given on the company employees. The effectiveness and success of this inventory management system are influenced by the companies which have implemented this strategy in their supply chain operations. HP has proved to be one of the leading companies which have benefitted a lot from the Just in time strategy by sticking to its employee-based objectives. The research paper has given us an insight about the effective uses of this strategy and we have studied about a lot of companies which have really benefitted from Just in Time system and conclude that to manage your supply chain operations a company must consider Just in time in their future operations.

Comparison between image encryption algorithms for wireless sensor
Devices used in the Wireless Sensor Network are very small and compact in size, and this technology is expected to connect billions of devices in the future. Wireless Sensor Network used in IoT is expected to generate heaps of data and security can be a great threat. Due to its compactness, resource constraints and low powered it is difficult to use conventional encryption algorithms because of expensive computation, complexity and power used in encryption and it also requires many rounds to encrypt, leads to wasting of constrained energy of the WSN devices. In this paper, a comparison is proposed between two lightweight encryption algorithms based on Feistel structure named Secure Force (SF) and Secure Internet of Things (SIT) implemented by using a simple architecture that only consists of simple mathematical operation (AND, OR, XOR, XNOR, Shifting, Swapping). This can reduce the load on encoder because complex key expansion process is only carried at the decoder. Confusion and diffusion of the image matrix, and different substitution and permutation techniques are also included to increase the complexity of the cipher. The proposed comparison helps us to evaluate which algorithm is better in terms of architecture, time complexity, flexibility, and security.
