I’ve been haunting every post and comments of group….and found that most of hav perplexity btn with
whom to contact MOE,NMC,MOH….
MOE & NMC have been playing the role of villain since past…ani MOE can’t forward its works unless it
receive letter from NMC….so our rage activities should focus towards NMC & MOH…hunata MOE is
the highest rank office of education tara pani nmc ko letter ko lagi pressurize dinu parne ho….yedi MOE
personal harulai benefits hunthyo vane dashain aghi nai hamro procedure suru hunthyo…hamro
procedure suru vayeni navayeni MOE personal haru ko TA/DA ma boost hudaina….. so numb baseka
hun MOE personal haru….ani NMC personal harule pani private colz ma admission vayepaxi sth budget
pauxan hola tesaile MOH le admission impede garda pani private medical colz ma admission vakai
xa….aaja ta ajai dhulikhel ma orientation class xa vanne sune ko xu…..
So MOH is portraying the role of anti-hero, hamilai sahayog gare jasto ta gareko xa….seat plan ramro
vayena vanera ani last yr ko moe stds lai aftharo hunxa vanne kura raise garera notice nikaleko xa tara
scholarship le matrai padhna napaune aru donation wala harule majjale padhne yo ta partiality vayo ni
direct….
Yedi hamile donation wala haru ko class start huna nadine ho vane we should seek help from
CIAA/Media….MOE/NMC lai ta bani pareko xa media ma aune MOH aauxa ahele ta…tesaile khei huna
sakxa….Let’s be optimistic….
Be candid and express ur rage toward nmc, moe, moh through any activities u can afford like daily calling
@ office or hav frequent visit…
Share the condition u r going through to ur parents without hesitation ki seat ma nikai fluctuation aauna
pani sakxa……especially focus about hamro padhhai fix 1-2months xutxa…
If ur relatives koi moh, nmc, moe affiliated office ma hunuhunxa vane u should contact to them, so that
they can give u idea whom to contact…
Hamile ta yo past 8months ma ta kasari padhne pani bhuli sakexam hola except few the then moe fresher

In an unexpected twist, a family of proteins that have been found to promote HIV-1 entry into cells
also potently block viral release. Interestingly, these proteins were also found to inhibit the release of
other viruses, including Ebola virus. These intriguing new findings provide us with novel insights into
both viral infection and the development of AIDS, which could ultimately lead to new antiviral
strategies. The study has been published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. Viruses
are unable to replicate by themselves and thus must hijack a host cell’s machinery in order to do so.
To get inside host cells, HIV, or human immunodeficiency virus, needs to bind to receptors found on
target cells. This triggers a series of events that ultimately lead to viral entry; once inside, HIV
converts the cell into a factory for making more viruses. Recent studies have identified a family of
proteins, called TIM proteins, which play critical roles in facilitating the entry of various viruses
including Ebola, West Nile and dengue viruses. Intriguingly, University of Missouri researchers have now
discovered that these proteins not only promote HIV-1 entry into host cells, but they also prevent viral
release. For the study, scientists investigated the interactions between HIV-1 and TIM proteins using
various molecular, biochemical and microscopic techniques. They found that as HIV-1 begins to bud
from, or escape, the host cell, TIM proteins become incorporated into the virions and tether the
particles to the cellular membrane. This is mediated through interactions with a lipid called
phosphatidylserine (PS) that is found both on the cell membrane and the outside of the virus particles.
Usually, PS is expressed on the inside of the cell, but viral infection causes it to flip to the outside,
meaning that both PS and TIM are now present on the cell and viral surface. TIM and PS then bind to
one another as HIV-1 attempts to escape from the cell, causing the particles to be retained at the cell
surface. Interestingly, the team also discovered that TIM proteins inhibited the release of other viruses
including a mouse virus belonging to the same family as HIV (murine leukemia virus), and also Ebola
virus. While these discoveries extend our understanding of viral infection, lead researcher Shan-Lu Liu
points out that it is not clear at this stage whether HIV’s interaction with TIM proteins is a positive or
negative factor. “However, this discovery furthers our ultimate goal of understanding the biology of
TIM-family proteins and potentially developing applications for future antivirus therapies,” he says.
Life is a race if you won’t run fast you’ll be lost in the field of darkness. It is like a
cafeteria through which we can get any sorts of things or like a chocolate box never knows what
comes after. Every individual can enjoy the fruits of success, but they’ll never get it if they wait
for someone to bring for them. We have to get it up and get it ourselves. Most of people think
success is nothing but it’s just the situation of having power and money. The way most of us
look at success is in being happy and contented not for instants but for consistently and it is
verity too.
Success is the way which can be achieve just after a little splat. We have failed many
times, although we may not remember. We fell down the first time when we tried to walk. We
almost drowned the first time when we tried to swim. But we don’t worries about failure be
consistent all the time. If we fail, it doesn’t mean we are a failure. It does mean we are getting to
our success. Failure doesn’t mean that we’ll never make it again. It does mean that we need
more patience. Failure doesn’t mean that we have accomplished nothing it does mean we have
learned something through which we get fail. For this we can take an example of one well
known great scientist Thomas Alva Edison whose works has inspired that we shouldn’t lose our
hope unless we achieve our destination. Success isn’t a big deal but it is just a way of
expressing your hidden art inside within you and it totally depends upon you how, when, where
you expose i.e. between illiterate people if you present your speech using proverbs, idioms,
phrases using wearisome vocabulary it has no meaning just lost of precious time but when you
present such speech between literate, scholarly qualified personality it definitely works and you
will be ample of eye among those person.
The secret of success can be achieved by two words i.e. Right decisions (at right place).
And we make right decisions by our experience and we get that experience by two words i.e.
prolong efforts. Believe, dream, dare and attitude are the key for success. We should believe
ourselves and dare to achieve our dream with positive attitude through which we can get fruits
of success. The long we live the more we realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude is more
important facts. We grow by dreams. All big men are dreamers. Also people are different in their
lifestyle, attitude, art, dream and destination so success also hugs; gives kisses to their
footsteps in different ways completely differ from others.
Some people work well under pressure while others just fail under it. Decide what you
want to be. The courage most comes from the soul within but be sure that you should be candid
you aren’t cheating your heart and soul through presenting your fake impression & personality
among your colleagues. The only work ethic that works is listening to our heart as much as
possible. Our heart suggests what to do and how to do, not somebody else or something else.
Our heart and mind are those vital organs that provide directions to all our daily activities in
order to achieve successful life so we should take right decision from mind and keeping heart
bold using 3D i.e. dedication, determination and devotion. After that do you work accordingly,
present your key art and achieve your first steps of success.
Say I can, follow your heart, focus at work, use your power of thought, forget your
wandering ideas, realize the importance of time, believe yourself and dare to achieve your
destiny with positive attitude through which you can get your success in your right hand by
closing yours eyes. And remember that Success can’t be buy or bargain it should be procure
through mind, effort and dare i.e. Success never hunt on you but we have to be silky forever
and make success to kiss your every footstep ever………….

*But we are surrounded by real world and real people…so enjoy the fullest life as it is
short and do right deed without hampering the soul of “compassion as great virtue”
Daydreams have been commencing with the positive hope .the aroma of hope can be
smelt over my surrounding
A long voyage without avail is just a worst nothing else….. feeling vexation
Finally getting sunder from the 7 months of hibernation. The aroma of daydreams is
commencing and smelling with positive hope after the rays of sunlight bleached eyesight,
discerned skin and fresh & cool air palpated nose. The torture & glee felt over this period was
really breathtaking…so yearning such havoc period never hunt within…” A long voyage without
avail is just a worst nothing else”
& here it ends: “A long voyage without
avail”
Nov
Dear one,
Finally heading towards a red letter day, and I’m going to recount my hibernation period
so that the glee, pain, pleasure and torture felt over that period will be equally shared between
you and me. Hope you won’t underestimate my feeling and provide me right directions,
suggestions & courage for the upcoming life events.
The aroma of daydreams is commencing and smelling with positive hope through this
very day. Finally the rays of sunlight bleached eyesight, discerned skin and fresh & cool air
palpated nose. The 7months long lasting hibernation moments were memorable and never want
to wipe out from my memory. That period was like a bad nightmare which had been hunting for
last few months. For me the hibernation period was yearn which was fulfilled after a long linger.
I used to carved before as if there were no school/colleges’ period so that I can have leisure at
any time; but my wish was fulfilled with lots of chaos, huddles, tortuous, sang veiled inside
within it which created havoc life.
The 1st month was full of revelation and joy which can be felt over my lips, eyes, gesture
and deeds but as the time abated the recurring daily routine started creating chaos in my daily
life. I was expecting such situation in my life which will bring lots of glee & pleasure so that I can
also be the part of my close & dearest friends circle; but when it happen it totally differ from the
novel one as I used to dream earlier before such period. If it had happened before 1year such
situation won’t have this much impact on me so that I’ll seat in front of the laptop sharing it to
you through putting down black and white. Why, when & how such winsome period transformed
into hibernation period can’t remember the literal date & time. The madness of the glee and joy
lost within 1month and depression, torture, pain took its way. That vary duration was like a
prodigy gift for me afterwards which will never hunt on my life back again but also can’t enjoy to
the fullest extent. Some part of my unconscious mind had strong feeling that either the decision
I had gone through will head towards dark venture or something like white feathers may hunt on
me; which kept me under hibernation all day & night.
I was in such situation where I didn’t have answer of when, where & which type of
questions done by relatives & friends; such filthy things were hunting on my mind since last few
months. So in order to get rid of such question I had decided for hibernation. Sometime I used
to be numb in front of such question but when such situation moves towards the climax I used to
take fake support and deal with those people. How could I present my answer to them which I
didn’t know…Afterwards, these people started looking at me as I was giving them false info and
hope. Since then gossip started moving around me and making my life like a desert. So to get
purge from these situations, I made plan to hibernate inside my own house neglecting relative
voices as their voices were becoming throne in flesh. Sometime I used to welled during night
recalling the past avail life and used to wipe out face through shirts sleeves. After all I started to
natter with books, mirror & sometime with myself expressing the rage roaming over my blood
through writing & walking throughout the house.
Such bad moments were moving around me & making my memory full; fading
knowledge, data, information that were gathered during last few years. I had gone through
completely bothered & uptight circumstances. I was getting duller, weaker & alone although I
used to have some fun on social networking site but those joys didn’t used to long last; that
were only for limited period. Joys used to fade up as soon as I go for sleep and again such
where, when & which types of question used to hunt on me. Since my mind wasn’t with me it
was lost for seeking something at virtual world. Form last few months I hadn’t gone through
sound sleep as I always used to think about how to get rid of such disaster situation.
In-between such bad aspect I suddenly met fairy like elf. It was my one & only great
achievement ever during that period. It was really astonishing experience that my life had also
gone through such blissful experience. Elf used to hunt me on my dream and I made a plan for
friendship. Our friendship last for 3-4months which had changed my daily routine pattern. We
started sharing our life moments. The joy & sorrow we had gone through were equally shared
between us as well we started to understand each other’s feelings. I was amazed that elf had
similar life like ours and some parts were quite harmonizing with my life. I used to have my
dinner early so that I can squander more time with elf. Sometime my mind had burly feeling why
I was so much fascinated to that elf & how can I do this/that but anyway same elf hunted me on
my dream again & again which had transferred my deserted life into savanna. I started going
through daydreaming and enjoying the glee, gratification moments with elf. The date with elf
was Shangri-La for me where I was completely lost in the fantasy world of adore, warmth,
friendliness, affairs & clout which had totally changed my life. Suddenly one day elf halted
hunting on me. I got edgy but handle my mind as that was only imaginary elf. Form that day elf
never hunted; 2-3days after disappearance of elf I had same routine so that same elf could
again come on and plant some flowers in my desert full life. But I hardly met; my act of finding
elf was crazy like searching needle in the hay stack. Having elf on my dreams & daydreams was
just all agog but moments that I had spent with elf were just like a flash in the pan.
In-between this and that I was in touch with my childhood friends with whom I was
contactless and it had been more or less 11 years. I felt glad to them as they had still my image
on their memory. But I couldn’t gather enough courage to address any of them since they were
enjoying their own life, studying but me struggling and going through hibernation period. If I had
have conversation such question where, when, which will arise which had already created mess
on my life. So I decided to stay a bit far from them. I used to seat in front of laptop and go
through social networking site but my inbox, notification used to be empty; nevertheless I used
to enjoy myself through surfing friends profile, pic where I used to smell the fragrance of love
and friendship; which used to cajole me again & again to visit their profile. I felt pleased that my
childhood friends having such status, successful life where they were enjoying with one another.
Although my inbox used to be empty but when I mesg to one of those friends I used to receive
either instant mesg or a day after that use to make me fell more happy that they haven’t
forgotten me. And with great hope & daydreaming that someday my friends will also go through
my profile and glad on me…….
The fake glee can be felt over my face but actual pain and torture were running along
with my blood all over the body. My life was similar to dusk in a thunderstorm; in which huddles,
chaos, sang were like a snake in the grass. Today I’m finally getting sunder from the 7 months
of hibernation. The torture & glee felt over this period was really breathtaking. So yearning such
havoc period (except 1st few months) never hunt within…….
Yours victim

Joining a MBBS course is a jolt of fresh enthusiasm and
eagerness about what shall come ahead and feeling of security
and pride over the profession one has ensued. At the same time
the enumerable queries about whether the course is within own
capability and the fear of the Hearsay can make days bit of
turmoil. So a good counselling is what you people need at this
time.
Necessary of pacemaker:
The normal electrical conduction in the heart allows the impulse that is generated by
the sinoatrial node (SA node) of the heart to be propagated to (and stimulate) the cardiac
muscle (myocardium). The myocardium contracts after stimulation. It is the ordered stimulation
of the myocardium that allows efficient contraction of the heart, thereby allowing blood to be
pumped throughout the body. Signals arising in the SA node stimulate the atria to contract and
travel to the AV node. After a delay, the stimulus is conducted through the bundle of His to
the Purkinje fibers and the endocardium at the apex of the heart, then finally to the ventricular
epicardium, which result the normal resting adult human heart rate ranges from 60–100 bpm.
Cardiac dysrhythmia (arrhythmia/irregular heartbeat) is any of a group of conditions in
which the electrical activity of the heart is irregular or is faster or slower than
normal. The heartbeat may be too fast (over 100 beats per minute) or too slow (less than 60 beats
per minute), and may be regular or irregular. A heart beat that is too fast is called tachycardia and
a heart beat that is too slow is called bradycardia. So during an arrhythmia, the heart can beat too
fast, too slow, or with an irregular rhythm. Pacemakers can relieve some arrhythmia symptoms,
such as fatigue (tiredness) and fainting. A pacemaker also can help a person who has abnormal
heart rhythms resume a more active lifestyle.
Function:
Modern pacemakers usually have multiple functions. The most basic form monitors the
heart's native electrical rhythm. When the pacemaker does not detect a heartbeat within a normal
beat-to-beat time period, it will stimulate the ventricle of the heart with a short low voltage pulse.
This sensing and stimulating activity continues on a beat by beat basis.
The equivalent atrial pacing mode is AAI or AAIR which is the mode of choice when
atrioventricular conduction is intact but the natural pacemaker the sinoatrial node is unreliable -
sinus node disease (SND) or sick sinus syndrome. Where the problem is atrioventricular
block (AVB) the pacemaker is required to detect (sense) the atrial beat and after a normal delay
(0.1-0.2 seconds) trigger a ventricular beat, unless it has already happened - this is VDD mode
and can be achieved with a single pacing lead with electrodes in the right atrium (to sense) and
ventricle (to sense and pace). These modes AAIR and VDD are unusual in the US but widely
used in Latin America and Europe. The DDDR mode is most commonly used as it covers all the
options though the pacemakers require separate atrial and ventricular leads and are more
complex, requiring careful programming of their functions for optimal results.
Advancement:
A major step forward in pacemaker function has been to attempt to mimic nature by
utilizing various inputs to produce a rate-responsive pacemaker using parameters such as the QT
interval, pO2 - pCO2 (dissolved oxygenor carbon dioxide levels) in the arterial-venous system,
physical activity as determined by an accelerometer, body temperature, ATP levels, adrenaline,
etc. Instead of producing a static, predetermined heart rate, or intermittent control, such a
pacemaker, a 'Dynamic Pacemaker', could compensate for both actual respiratory loading and
potentially anticipated respiratory loading. The first dynamic pacemaker was invented by
Anthony Rickards of the National Heart Hospital, London, UK, in 1982.
Dynamic pacemaking technology could also be applied to future artificial hearts.
Advances in transitional tissue welding would support this and other artificial organ/joint/tissue
replacement efforts. Stem cells may or may not be of interest to transitional tissue welding.
Many advancements have been made to improve the control of the pacemaker once
implanted. Many of these have been made possible by the transition to microprocessor controlled
pacemakers. Pacemakers that control not only the ventricles but the atria as well have become
common. Pacemakers that control both the atria and ventricles are called dual-chamber
pacemakers. Although these dual-chamber models are usually more expensive, timing the
contractions of the atria to precede that of the ventricles improves the pumping efficiency of the
heart and can be useful in congestive heart failure.
Insertion:
A pacemaker is typically inserted into the patient
through a simple surgery using either local anesthetic or
a general anesthetic. The patient may be given a drug for
relaxation before the surgery as well. An antibiotic is
typically administered to prevent infection. In most cases
the pacemaker is inserted in the left shoulder area where
an incision is made below the collar bone creating a
small pocket where the pacemaker is actually housed in
the patient's body. The lead or leads (the number of leads
varies depending on the type of pacemaker) are fed into
the heart through a large vein using a fluoroscope to
monitor the progress of lead insertion. The Right
Ventricular lead would be positioned away from the apex
(tip) of the right ventricle and up on the interventricular
septum, below the outflow tract, to prevent deterioration
of the strength of the heart. The actual surgery may take
about 30 to 90 minutes.
Following surgery the patient should exercise reasonable care about the wound as it
heals. There is a follow-up session during which the pacemaker is checked using a "programmer"
that can communicate with the device and allows a health care professional to evaluate the
system's integrity and determine the settings such as pacing voltage output. The patient should
have the strength of his or her heart analyzed frequently with echocardiography, every 1 or 2
years, to make sure the that placement of the right ventricular lead has not led to weakening of
the left ventricle.
Since a pacemaker uses batteries, the device itself will need replacement as the batteries
lose power. Device replacement is usually a simpler procedure than the original insertion as it
does not normally require leads to be implanted. The typical replacement requires a surgery in
which an incision is made to remove the existing device, the leads are removed from the existing
device, the leads are attached to the new device, and the new device is inserted into the patient's
body replacing the previous device.

International pacemaker patient identification cards carry information such as patient data
(among others, symptom primary, ECG, aetiology), pacemaker center (doctor,
hospital), IPG (rate, mode, date of implantation,manufacturer, type) and lead type.
Periodic pacemaker checkups:
Two types of remote monitoring devices used by pacemaker patients:
Periodic
Routine
Once the pacemaker is implanted, it is periodically checked to ensure the device is
operational and performing appropriately. Depending on the frequency set by the following
physician, the device can be checked as often as is necessary. Routine pacemaker checks are
typically done in-office every six (6) months, though will vary depending upon patient/device
status and remote monitoring availability.
As modern pacemakers are "on-demand", meaning that they only pace when necessary,
device longevity is affected by how much it is utilized. Other factors affecting device longevity
include programmed output and algorithms (features) causing a higher level of current drain
from the battery.
Lifestyle considerations of user & safety measure:
A patient's lifestyle is usually not modified to any great degree after insertion of a
pacemaker. There are a few activities that are unwise such as full contact sports and activities
that involve intense magnetic fields.
The pacemaker patient may find that some types of everyday actions need to be modified. For
instance, the shoulder harness of a vehicle seatbelt may be uncomfortable if the harness should
fall across the pacemaker insertion site.
Any kind of an activity that involves intense magnetic fields should be avoided. This
includes activities such as arc welding possibly, with certain types of equipment, or maintaining
heavy equipment that may generate intense magnetic fields (such as a magnetic resonance
imaging (MRI) machine).
Some medical procedures may require the use of antibiotics to be administered before the
procedure. The patient should inform all medical personnel that he or she has a pacemaker. Some
standard medical procedures such as the use of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) may be ruled
out by the patient having a pacemaker.
Complications:
A possible complication of dual-chamber artificial pacemakers is pacemaker-mediated
tachycardia (PMT), a form of reentrant tachycardia. In PMT, the artificial pacemaker forms the
anterograde (atrium to ventricle) limb of the circuit and the atrioventricular (AV) node forms the
retrograde limb (ventricle to atrium) of the circuit. Treatment of PMT typically involves
reprogramming the pacemaker.
Another possible complication is "pacemaker-tracked tachycardia," where
a supraventricular tachycardia is tracked by the pacemaker and produces beats from a ventricular
lead. This is becoming exceedingly rare as newer devices are often programmed to recognize
supraventricular tachycardias and switch to non-tracking modes.
