The present study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of vaccines in preventing case fatality in hospitalized COVID-19 patients in a tertiary care centre. Methods: A hospital based cross-sectional study was done in all COVID-19 patients admitted in a tertiary care centre in Aurangabad from February 2021 to May 2022. 1275 patients vaccination status was known and outcome of these patients were studied. Unadjusted Odds ratios for each variable were estimated and logistic regression was used for multivariate analysis. Results: 360 study participants (28.24%) had taken at least 1 dose of vaccine, while 915 (71.76%) were not vaccinated. 441 (34.59%) participants had unfavourable outcome (death). The mortality in vaccinated was 24.17% (87/360) while it was 38.69% (354/915) in unvaccinated. In logistic regres...

But very few studies are conducted on memory retention amongst students with traditional study methods and this newer study method. So, this research is aimed to compare the effectiveness of video modules and conventional text reading methods on medical students memory consolidation. Objectives:To compare the effectiveness of video lectures against reading materials in memory retention among medical students. Material & Methods:100 medical students after obtaining their consent were included and randomized into two comparable groups. The groups were given either a video or text-based learning module on the demographic cycle. A test was held immediately, consisting of ten multiple-choice. The test was repeated in the second and fourth week. Both descriptive and inferential statistics were utilized. The mean score difference between the video and control g...

Aim of this study was to assess the self-esteem of girls staying in an orphanage home and to find out the relation of self-esteem and age. Materials and Methods: The study was conducted in an orphanage of Aurangabad city after taking permission from concerned authorities. Cross sectional Study design was used. 240 orphan girls of age group 9 to 15 were selected and interviewed. For assessing self-esteem Rosenberg's self-esteem scale was used. Questions on socio demographic data were also included. Data were analysed using both descriptive (percentage, mean) and inferential statistical methods. Results: Among total 240 girls, 54 was found to have low self-esteem. Mean self-esteem score was observed to be 19. Mean age of children was 12.75. One way ANOVA test was used to analyse relationship between age and Self-esteem score and it was found to be significant (p value 0.025) and relationship between years spent in institution and self-esteem score was found to be significant (p value 0.002). Conclusion: The study revealed that 75% children were found to have good self-esteem. Statistical test revealed that there is significant relation with years spent in institution, age and self-esteem.
