Enhancing Compassionate Care: Current Need & Process
Compassion is essential in providing good nursing care because the compassionate care benefits patients with regard to treatment, wound healing, satisfaction and well-being; it benefits physicians with regard to lowered depression rates, elevated meaning, lower burnout, and more diligent technical care; it benefits healthcare systems that establish reputational gains at no greater use of time or resources; it benefits medical students with regard to their diminished complaints of abusive clinical environments and maladaptive team interactions. Thus the compassionate care has many dimensions of beneficial impact.

Factors related to the design of urban systems Kermanshah (Iran)(Globalization, Modernism and Post Modernism)
Globalization and the rise of modern cities in the early twenty-first century, two important events in the history of human life. Globalization means the dense accumulation of knowledge about the world. In thinking and action are to measure one place .At the national societies, especially individual to accept as part of a larger set entity themselves. The modern city is a city that has global diffusion of power. Globalization and modernity and modernization of leading to Trends, changes in lifestyle and less Significant of native elements of architecture and urbanism and urban design affects. This study is descriptive and analytical that using a library research tool attempts to analyze the impact on the historic context of the cities that are global, in that order.

Formulation, standardization, organoleptic evaluation of natural galactogogue mix and it’s impact on prolactin levels
To assess the effectiveness of naturally prepared galactogogue mix on breast milk production and prolactin levels in postnatal mothers. Natural Fenugreek and Garlic based Galactogogue mixes were formulated and standardized. Organoleptic evaluation of the same mixes was also conducted by a ten panel members. Followed by this, 30 mother-infant pairs were assigned into 3 groups. Group I (n=10) consisted of mothers who were receiving galactagogue mix containing fenugreek every day, Group II (n=10) consisted of mothers who were receiving galactagogue mix containing garlic every day and Group 3 (n=10) were assigned as control group. The intervention was carried out for seven days, the baseline and post treatment serum prolactin levels of the mothers were determined using a standard protocol. Organoleptic scores of Garlic galactogogue mix was superior than Fenugreek galactogogue mix attributing to its bitter taste. The mean measured serum prolactin levels of the mothers who received galactagogue mixes were higher than the control group (p<0.05). Galactogogue mixes using natural ingredients especially fenugreek seeds were found be highly acceptable and supplementation of these galactagogue mixes seems to be useful for enhancing breast milk production.

Fruits and Vegetables Intake lowers the risk of Hypertension: Does It Really Work?
The association between fruit and vegetables (FVs) consumption and hypertension risk remains controversial. This study aims to validate a short screener of FVs intake on the Lebanese population. Based on the data collected, FVs consumption was analyzed accordingly to compare the intake between hypertensive and normotensive subjects.Cross-sectional study conducted in the greater area of Beirut. Subjects recruited were Lebanese citizens (N=300) aging 35 years old and above adjusted for age (N=150 participants < 65 years old and N= 150 participants ?65 years old) and gender (equally distributed between men and women). Descriptive Statistics, Chi Square test, Alpha Cronbach test, and Binary Logistic tests were conducted. FV consumption was high in subjects with hypertension compared to normotensive subjects who have low adherence to the 5 servings/day of FV recommendations. Also, there was no difference observed between genders concerning FV intake. The internal consistency test shows that the questions used in this questionnaire were not consistent thus; some modifications should be implemented to adjust this questionnaire appropriately to the population studied.High fruits and vegetables intake was associated with an increased risk of hypertension. While the mechanism of blood pressure variation via fruit and vegetable consumption is not yet clear, selective consumption of healthy foods and nutrients, maintaining a healthy body weight, and staying physically active may lead to prevention and treatment of hypertension. As for the questionnaire’s validity, more culturally adapted options should be added to the screener in a way that satisfies FV consumption of the Arabian world in general, and that of the Lebanese population specifically.

Genotoxic potentials of some medicinal plants on Drosophila melanogaster
Genotoxic potentials of three commonly used medicinal plants (Cola nitida, Ocimum gratissimum and Monodora myristica) were assessed on D. melanogaster. Eight generations of D. melanogaster were cultured on over-ripe banana paste with inclusion levels of 0, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10% (w/w) of the medicinal plants. Mutation rates both on the wing structure and body colouration were dose-dependent and generation-specific; as increase in the dose of treatment, increases the mutation rates as well as the higher the generations. The degree of effects on these structures was also plant-specific, with followed the trend; C. nitida > O. gratissimum > M. myristica. The result revealed that the medicinal plants have genotoxic potentials with C. nitida having the greatest effects; hence they should be consumed with caution.

Grouping strategies in Collaborative learning –An experimental Study
In a typical class room with students of different learning styles and influences due to cultural or social factors, monitoring the individual student can be enhanced by going through their interaction with each other through a collaborative learning approach. We propose a model of two types of collaborations. The first allows dynamical grouping driven by the students’ performance within heterogeneous (mixing high, medium, low marks achievers) or homogeneous (similar marks achievers). The second type consists of static groups (the students agreed to form fixed groups, not moving from one group to another group). We have applied the two types of model in constructing the knowledge for Java coding for application development through collaborative learning process in which each student has a more or less equal role in bringing out the outputs for the laboratory exercises. Our results prove that the static groups have significant effect in spite of the presence of extra encouragement for participating in dynamic grouping. This result establishes, especially in the context of rural learners in, the evidence of gaining educational benefits from the social interactions and cultural factors.

High Speed Railways: A Sustainable Option for Indian Urban Transport
This paper is aimed at understanding the critical issues like urbanization, population growth, transport demand, growth of vehicles, and air pollution in Urban India. The trends in urban growth are discussed along with the impact of high urban population growth rates on various facets like transport demand, GDP, and its impact on the urban society’s wellbeing. Rapid motorization and urbanization can bring many issues that can endanger the sustainability of Indian cities. This paper reviews the existing urban environmental problems, poor transport system and increasing accidents rate and suggests that High speed railways will be an efficient, economical and environmentally friendly transportation system which can make urban India more sustainable.

Identification and structural elucidation of linolenic acid in the ethanolic fruit extract of Cucumis Trigonus
The ethanolic fruit extract of Cucumis trigonus Roxb. of family Curcurbitaceae was subjected to isolation and identification of chemical constituents. The extract was purified and isolated by column chromatography and thin layer chromatography (TLC). The isolated compound was then subjected to Infra red spectroscopy (IR) for identification of functional groups, 1H NMR and 13C NMR for identification of protons and carbon atoms. LCMS and elemental analysis were done for identifying the molecular weight and elemental composition of the isolated compound. From the spectra obtained from IR, 1H NMR and 13C NMR, LCMS and elemental analysis, the isolated compound was found to be linolenic acid (C18H30O2) with a molecular weight of 278.43.
