Hypertension is regarded as a major public health problem worldwide. The World Health Report identifies blood pressure as one of the five important risk factors for non communicable disease worldwide. Average prevalence in India is 25 per cent in urban and 10 per cent in rural populations. Changing lifestyle factors has documented efficacy in the primary prevention and control of hypertension.

In wireless ad hoc networks a node having many packets waiting in its queue for delivery to different neighbours, may choose a candidate receiver with good channel condition through scheduling. In the existing distributed opportunistic scheduling, transmission of packets is allowed when the channel quality is good, whereas methods for packet transmission during bad channel quality is not considered. In the proposed work an improved method which includes a link state estimation mechanism to estimate the quality of the link and a method for adjusting the service rate, when the channel quality is poor is considered through which end-to-end compensation is achieved , ultimately improving throughput.Keywords

The present study reveals the presence of substantial levels of oligosaccharides, verbascose, stachyose and raffinose,in all the investigated seven germplasm seed materials of the tribal pulses, Canavalia ensiformis DC and Canavalia gladiata (Jacq.). The oligosaccharides are implicated in flatus production. Therefore the differential processing methods like soaking followed by cooking and treatment with crude α – galactosidase (enzyme) are undertaken. Between these two processing methods, treatment with crude enzyme (α – galactosidase) appears to be more effective in significant reduction in levels of oligosaccharides, raffinose ranging from 77.94% to 82.72%, stachyose ranging from 67.57% to 73.56% and verbascose ranging from 78.67% to 81.40% .
