Climate Change and Increasing Flood Frequency in Kashmir [1815-2015 A.D.]| Chapter 8 | Current Advances in Geography, Environment and Earth Sciences Vol. 6

 In Kashmir, flooding has been a constant since the region's creation. Since the 1890s, the frequency has dramatically grown. Several scientists today assert that climate change has increased the chance of disasters. The researcher looked at the primary sources of Kashmir history from the previous 200 years to assess whether there had been any climate change in Kashmir over this time and, if so, whether it had affected the frequency of floods in Kashmir. The researcher also investigated post-flood disorders to determine whether there was a connection between these diseases and climate change. Consequently, expanding telecommunication infrastructure necessitates more electricity to run, which is why we believe the topic of our discussion is pertinent. This essay explores how energy and environmental auditing, along with an effective energy management system, pave the way for green telecom in terms of green telecom networks, equipment maintenance, building design, and trash disposal. The talk focused on the use of solar power in telecom towers as well as research using case studies and governmental directives to satisfy the requirements of strategic fit compliances for environmental protection.

Immunoglobulin-E levels, Interleukin Genes and Atopy | Chapter 5 | Research Aspects in Biological Science Vol. 7

 The goal of the current study was to investigate the relationships between various types of allergies and the genes immunoglobulin-E (IgE), interleukin-4 (IL-4), and interleukin-13 (IL-13), as well as their various variants. An expert team used a pre-tested questionnaire to compile data on diet, way of life, and clinical conditions. A 2ml blood sample from each was taken using coagulation and anticoagulation vials. Serum and DNA samples were taken and saved for further use. In contrast to ELISA, which was utilised to measure serum IgE, PCR-RFLP techniques were used for the genotypic investigation. Between patients and controls, there was a statistically significant difference in the serum IgE levels (P 0.05). Subjects with different genotypes of the IL-4 and IL-13 genes retained the observed difference in serum IgE levels (P 0.05). Furthermore, the aforementioned genetic variations significantly changed the risk of allergy when allergy risk was stratified based on different clinical traits. In conclusion, our results show that elevated IgE levels are substantially related with a range of allergies in the study group, along with variant forms of the IL-4 and IL-13 genes.
