As the Internet becomes increasingly popular, the number of users connected to it grows significantly. Consequently, the packet processing speed of network systems, such as routers, must be enhanced. IP lookup is a critical task used to find the next hop address by searching for the longest prefix match in the forwarding information base (FIB).

Background Estimation of time since death/postmortem interval (PMI) forms a crucial component for all autopsy surgeons. With the subjectivity that is prevalent with conventional morphological and physical signs of death, newer-age modalities such as chemical analysis provide better precision. The easy accessibility and the resistance to putrefaction make vitreous humor the best choice for such chemical analysis.

Background: Canavan disease (CD) is an autosomal recessively inherited leukodystrophy. It affects one in 6,400 to 13,500 people in the Jewish population. However, prevalence and presentation of the disease in India is largely unknown; hence, we are reporting this series.

Objective: To study the prevalence and spectrum of self-reported childhood sexual abuse (CSA) in a sample of medical students from a medical college in Southern India.

Methods: A self-administered questionnaire was distributed to consenting students of a medical college located at Puducherry. Those students who could not be contacted despite three attempts were excluded.

Objectives: The study attempts to characterize the clinical, demographic, risk factors, electroencephalographical, and neuroimaging features of hot-water epilepsy (HWE) in children.

Methods: This is a hospital-based observational study in the pediatric neurology clinic and who met the clinical definition of hot-water epilepsy were studied from January 2017 to October 2018. Clinical history, demographic data, and examination findings were recorded in a pre-structured proforma.

Gangliosidoses are progressive neurodegenerative disorders caused by the deficiency of enzymes involved in the breakdown of glycosphingolipids. There are not much data about gangliosidosis in India; hence, this study was planned. The aim is to study the clinical, biochemical, and molecular profile of gangliosidosis.

Objective: Obesity is a growing problem in India, the dietary determinants of which have been studied using an 'individual food/nutrient' approach. Examining dietary patterns may provide more coherent findings, but few studies in developing countries have adopted this approach. The present study aimed to identify dietary patterns in an Indian population and assess their relationship with anthropometric risk factors.

We present the results of synchrotron X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements on powdered single-crystal samples of BaFe(2-x)Ru(x)As2, as a function of Ru content, and as a function of temperature, across the spin-density wave transition in BaFe(1.9)Ru(0.1)As2.

Background. Food frequency questionnaires (FFQs) have been used in epidemiological studies across the world to capture the usual food intake of individuals. As food habits vary in different population groups, FFQs should be validated before use.

The evolution of the ground state properties of FeSb(2) has been investigated via temperature (4.2-300 K), magnetic field (0-12 T) and pressure (0-8.8 GPa) dependent electrical resistivity studies.

Temperature- and pressure-dependent electrical resistivity studies have been carried out on RuIn(3) single crystal in the 4-300 K range at various pressures between 0 and 5 GPa. While intrinsic semiconducting behaviour is inferred at higher temperatures above 275 K, the low temperature resistivity is primarily dictated by impurity effects. An insulator to metal transition is observed in the low temperature regime around ∼ 1.
