Background: COVID-19 pandemic has put all of us in astonishment and concern about its management and survival of human being since there is a great risk of human to human transmission. Teleophthalmology can play a great role to overcome this situation. Earlier teleophthalmology was mainly limited to diagnoistic reachout camps for diabetic eye disease mainly without treatment benefit to the patient. Now with advancement in media technology and availability of good quality smart phones, it is possible to extend scope of teleophthalmlogy for the treatment of superficial ailments of an eye. Our aim of the study was to analyse the eye disease pattern and impact of teleophthalmology on its management in one of the hot centre of India, i.e. Indore, during pandemic period. Materials and Methods: This study is a retrospective, interventional data analysis of patients seen in one month of Lockdown in India, from 26 th March to 25 th April 2020. All the patients were given teleconsultation with the help of voice calls and still pictures; video call was used wherever it was feasible. In our study, we have divided patients in two groups, first is Tele OSD (Tele Ocular Surface Disorders) where diagnosis on 2D image or video was possible and second group were OED (Other Eye Disease) where in-person consultation was required before making diagnosis or offering treatment. Results: We have done analysis of total 119 patients records who made a call for eye problems between 26 th March2020 to 25 th April 2020. Out of 119 patients, 107 patients (89.91%) were in Tele OSD and 12 patients (10.08%) were in OED group. Telemedicine was prescribed in 103 patients (103/107, of tele OSD group-96.26%), of which 102 patients (95.32%) showed marked improvement or are cured on followup. Among the Tele OSD group who received the treatment (103 patients), 79 patients (76.99%) were of conjunctivitis, varying from infectious to allergic origin who responded very well to treatment offered. Conclusion: COVID-19 pandemic has changed the understanding of medical science. Previously telemedicine (more precisely teleophthalmology) used to be a tool for outreach patient diagnosis mainly in rural or suburb area, but now with the advancement of digital media and easy availability of smart phones, it can also be used in the management of common eye diseases, even in urban population.
Article InfoPteridophyta is a phylum of plants which is commonly known as ferns. About more than 12,000 different species of ferns are distributed worldwide. They are distinguished from flowering plants by not producing seeds & fruit. The members of Pteridophyta reproduce through spores. Ferns were some of the Earth"s first land plants. They are vascular and have true leaves. In evolutionary history, the advent of vascular plants changed the way the world looked. Prior to the spread of vascular plants, the land had only plants that were no more than a few centimeters tall; the origin of the vascular system made it possible for plants to be much taller. As it became possible for plants to grow taller, it also became necessary -otherwise, they would get shaded by their taller neighbors. With the advent of vascular plants, the competition for light became intense, and forests started to cover the earth. (A forest is simply a crowd of plants competing for light). The earliest forests were composed of vascular non-seed plant, though modern forests are dominant by seed plant.
Ethnobotany is the branches of the sciences which are concerned with the utilization of the plants by the tribal peoples; tribes are living with the plants from the centuries, so they know the planned and the sustainable utilization of the plants. A number of the work has been done in the ethnobotany of the different part of the world, in this case we have try to work on the one of the area of the Alwar district of Rajasthan, that is complex vegetation area of the silisarh lake area. This area is very fertile and from time to time a number of the vegetation pattern (seasonal succession) can be seen, well we have collected the data of some 50 plants over the entire region which are important form the ethno-pharmacologically point of view. These kinds of the studies promote the conservation of the vegetation or the biodiversity of the area so that biodiversity can be conserved over the area for the planned utilization for the coming generation.
Traditional medicines is the very large term and in includes the Varity of the topics from the herbs to the several other combinations, TK the traditional knowledge is the wide term and it includes the Varity of the topic from the art and the agricultures, it is also known as the indigenous knowledge, the TK has its existence in the local communities, where the TK Passes from one generation to the another by the oral transmission of the knowledge from one generation to the another which was based on the long term experiences . TM is the term which is used for the locally available flora's for the treatment of the many kinds of the disorders, they includes the Ayvervedic medicines, Chinese and japanned medicines and Korean medicines, siddha and the other unani and the homeopathic medicines. Here in this research article we are presenting some of the aspects of the genus Anemone pulsitilla. The species is belonging to the family Ranunculaceae, the genus is also known as the wind flower, Anemone word is taken from the Greek language and meaning of the genus is the wind flower. The plant grows in the windy places. The genus grows in the alpine Himalayas, in the European country in the England and Siberia, the plant parts that is used is the flowering herb.
Gymnosperms are the plants of the great evolutionary and the economic values. They have the long fossil history. The Mesozoic era has been termed as the age of the cycads. However in the recent era coniferales are the only representative of the wholes of the group. Cycadales shows the relict lines of the evolution. In conifer also Pseudotsuga Pis the plant of the great interest. In America, the northern belt of the plants is the dominant part of the vegetation. In India Pseudotsuga can be found in the Himalayan belt. Pseudotsuga is the main theme of the paper. In this articles we have try to involve the main features of the Pseudotsuga. Conservation of the plant lines should be the utmost work of the many governments in India as well as the other part of the globe. The forest of the Pseudotsuga sustains the long belt of the forest ecosystem. Degradation of the keystone species leads to the disappearances of the whole ecosystem.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
