Objectives: Stent length is an important predictor of adverse events after PCI. The study was aimed to evaluate the clinical outcome of long stent length. Methodology: The present one year prospective study included 660 consecutive patients who underwent long segment elective coronary artery stenting from April 2012 and March 2013. The patients were divided into three cohorts depending upon the stent length 24-28 mm, 29-32 mm and more than 32 mm. Study endpoint was Major Adverse Cardiac Events (MACE) including cardiac death, myocardial infarction, repeat revascularization and stent thrombosis. Results: The commonest age group was 51 to 60 years (45.91%) of the 660 patients, 211 (31.97%) had stent length between 24 to 28 mm, 198 (30%) had 29 to 32 mm and 251 (38.03%) had > 32 mm. Risk factors including hypertension, diabetes mellitus, smoking, dislipidemia, obesity, family history and cerebrovascular accident were comparable in patients with different stent lengths (p>0.050). Significantly higher number of patients with 32 mm stent length had overlapping, dissection and direct stenting (p<0.050). Overall MACE was significantly high in patients with stent length >32 mm (p=0.045) but no statistically significant difference was observed on comparison of individual variables (p>0.050). Also comparable outcomes were noted in patients with diabetes mellitus and without diabetes mellitus (p>0.050). Conclusion and Interpretation: Use of more than 32mm Drug Eluting Stent (DES) for the treatment of long lesions results in overall high MACE rate.Keywords

This paper aims at exploring the usefulness of social science and it's teaching as critical pedagogy and transaction of values in Indian classrooms. It gives a brief background of social science pedagogy and its linkages with value education in critical manner. In modern times, the responsibility of socializing a child lays to a great extent, outside the community with school also. School successfully socializes the child and enculture them into the value system of society and value education acts as one of the tools. Value Education is often criticized of preaching prescribed and fixed norms. Hence, arise the pressing need to re-contextualize and reframe the basics of Value Education using Social Science as a pedagogic tool for inculcating Values. Values embedded in society have deep impact on life of a community. Social Science, as a discipline, provides a socio-cultural, political, economic and environmental lens to understand various dimensions of society contextualized in its past as well as present. Social Science asks students to critically reflect and assess the practices embedded in societal structures and processes. The questions that this study aimed to explore were: Are we really investing in children a critical moral and mental energy to make them alert to the social forces that threaten these values? Is there a contrast in our aims and our current practices in the name of Social Science pedagogy or is it successfully inculcating 'desired values'.Keywords

In this paper, a review of dynamic means partition based clustering algorithm for time series data is purposed in which a set of unlabeled time-series are partitioned into groups or clusters where all the objects grouped in the same cluster should be coherent or homogeneous. The proposed system is a prediction system to predict the gold market rates based on the history data set. These systems divide the data set in small fragments and process on each data block separately and conclude them as a single unit. Finally a layered neural network is implemented to filter the data and to derive the conclusion.

Multimedia databases have attracted academic and industrial interest, and systems such as QBIC (Content Based Image Retrieval system from IBM) have been released. Such systems are essential to effectively and efficiently use the existing large collections of image data in the modem computing environment. The aim of such systems is to enable retrieval of images based on their contents. There have been a lot of fuzzy database papers published. Since then, some new research results in, for example, fuzzy object-oriented databases come out. To investigate these issues and more importantly serve as identifying the direction of fuzzy database study.Keywords

Privacy Preserving Data Mining (PPDM) in a broad sense has been an area of research since 1991 both in the public and private sector and has also been discussed at numerous workshops and international conferences. Currently the research is mainly directed towards development of technical methods, such as application of cryptography or the development of specialized algorithms to meet security and privacy requirements for different data mining methods, such as classification or categorisation. So far PPDM has found application in only a few cases. One example is documented in medical research to protect patients' privacy In all cases when data mining is applied in the context of personal data, basic data and data mining results have to be collected, stored and processed in compliance with data protection legislation. This results in responsibilities for data controllers, technical operators and others involved in those business or governmental processes where data mining plays a role.Keywords
