ThesisItem Open Access Nutritional Status, Dietary Modification and Lifestyle Pattern of Post COVID-19 Patients(COLLEGE OF HOME SCIENCE SWAMI KESHWANAND RAJASTHAN AGRICULTURAL UNIVERSITY BIKANER (RAJASTHAN), 2021) REKHA YADAV; Dr. (Mrs.) Mamta SinghThe Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an acute and contagious disease characterized by pneumonia and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The pandemic caused by a novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) recently reclassified and named severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) which belongs to the family of Coronaviridae. The first coronavirus that caused severe disease was severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), which originated in Foshan, China, and resulted in the 2002, SARS-CoV pandemic. The second was the coronavirus-caused Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS), which originated from the Arabian Peninsula in 2012. SARS-CoV-2 is the third coronavirus that caused severe disease in humans to spread globally in the past 2 decades (Wiersinga et al., 2020). Coronaviruses are large, enveloped, single-stranded RNA viruses found in humans and other mammals, such as dogs, cats, chicken, cattle, pigs, and birds. The first human coronavirus was identified in 1960 and to date seven human coronaviruses have been recognized. CoVs are divided into four genera: alpha, beta, gamma and delta-CoV. CoVs currently known to cause diseases in humans belong to the alpha or the beta-CoV. The average incubation period of SARS-CoV-2 is 5–6 days, but it can be up to 14 days. The routes from human to human of SARS-CoV-2 transmission can be direct, droplet inhalation, contact, through saliva, and via fecal–oral routes (Khan et al., 2020). Human-to-human transmission of SARS-CoV-2 occurs mainly between family members, including relatives and friends who intimately contacted with patients or incubation carriers (Guo et al., 2020).The clinical outcomes of Covid-19 can vary from asymptomatic to a mild to severe state. Common symptoms of Covid-19 include headache, breathlessness, fever, cough, fatigue, dyspnea, diarrhea, and even conjunctivitis, occasionally leading to severe SARS-like viral pneumonia, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), multi-organ dysfunction, and even death (Balasubramanian and Ramalingam, 2020). Asymptomatic patients have infection (SARS-CoV-2) but never show any signs and symptoms while pre asymptomatic patients have no symptoms but when 1detected they were positive for SARS-CoV-2 and later develop symptoms. Older people and people with pre-existing medical conditions such as diabetes and heart disease are more vulnerable to the virus to become seriously ill (Syangatan et al., 2020).ThesisItem Open Access Nutritional Composition and Product Development using Dragon Fruit (Hylocereus undatus)(COLLEGE OF HOME SCIENCE SWAMI KESHWANAND RAJASTHAN AGRICULTURAL UNIVERSITY BIKANER (RAJASTHAN), 2020) VISHAKHA; Dr. (Mrs.) Mamta SinghDragon fruit is a savoury fruit with juicy pulp of creamy and attractive texture having lots of small brittle seeds embedded in it. The presence of tiny and edible black crunchy seeds gives it the resemblance of kiwi fruit. It is a flowering cactus of Cactaceae family which has numerous nomenclatures like ‘pitaya’, ‘pitahaya’, ‘night blooming cereus’, ‘belle of the night’, ‘conderella plant’ and ‘queen of the night’. But it is mainly famous as ‘dragon fruit’ all over Asia because of its skin covered with bracts (scales) similar to those of a dragon. It has two variants namely Stenocereus (sour variety) and Hylocereus (sweet variety). Furthermore, sweet dragon fruits are available in three varieties having common characteristics in terms of shape (round or oval) and texture of skin (leathery and leafy): · Hylocereus undatus (Pitaya blanca or white dragon fruit) is the most abundant variety having white fleshed fruit with pink skin. · Hylocereus costaricensis (Pitaya roja or red dragon fruit, also called Hylocereus polyrhizus) is red fleshed fruit with red skin. · Hylocereus megalanthus (Pitaya amarilla or yellow dragon fruit, also called Selenicereus megalanthus) is white fleshed fruit with yellow skin.ThesisItem Open Access Assessment of Nutritional Knowledge of Primary School Teachers in M id Day Meal Perspective(COLLEGE OF COMMUNITY SCIENCE, SWAMI KESHWANAND RAJASTHAN AGRICULTURAL UNIVERSITY, BIKANER (Raj.), 2023) SALONI; Mamta SinghChildhood starts at the time when relative dependency of infancy ends, which is starts around two years and lasts until the kid reaches sexual maturity, which happens at around thirteen for girls and fourteen for boys on average. The majority of people view childhood as a very lengthy period of time during life, a time when the person is largely dependent on others and vulnerable. Childhood is a crucial time in a person's life and it has an impact on adulthood. Early, middle and late childhood are the three distinct phases. Early childhood expand from two to five years, middle childhood from six to eight years and late childhood lasts from nine to eleven years (Hurlock 2006). According to UNICEF (2020), “child survival has dramatically improved over the past three decades and millions of kids now have a higher chance of living than they had in 1990. Compared to 1 in 11 in 1990, 1 in 27 children in 2020 will pass away before reaching five”. Additionally, compared to the 1990s, progress in reducing child mortality rates has accelerated in the 2000s with the global under-five mortality rate declining at an annual pace of (1.9% to 3.6%).Children begin to think of themselves as having a bigger responsibility for how they act around their families, other children and siblings in their early years. Once kids start school and leave the house, their social context broadens.ThesisItem Open Access Assessment of Nutritional Knowledge of Primary School Teachers in M id Day Meal Perspective(COLLEGE OF COMMUNITY SCIENCE, SWAMI KESHWANAND RAJASTHAN AGRICULTURAL UNIVERSITY, BIKANER (Raj.), 2023) SALONI; Dr. (Mrs.) Mamta SinghChildhood starts at the time when relative dependency of infancy ends, which is starts around two years and lasts until the kid reaches sexual maturity, which happens at around thirteen for girls and fourteen for boys on average.

Once kids start school and leave the house, their social context broadens. New connections are made with friends, teachers, caregivers and others in the social setting. As children get older, they experience significant changes in their gender identification, social interactions and relationship dynamics, mostly as a result of their environment and societal expectations. The children develop their own beliefs about their personal identities, commitments and duties. The sign of growing independence largely 1affects the child's personal, academic and social adaptations. Every child has the right to life, according to UNCRC Article 6. Every kid has the right to access to clean water, wholesome food and medical care (UNICEF, 1990). According to the (WHO,1997)“The long-term success of a nation rests on the balanced growth and development of school-age children. Children start school during a time of rapid physical growth and development".ThesisItem Open Access Nutritional Status Of Primary School Children ( 7-12 Years) Residing In Rural And Urban Areas Of Bikaner District (Rajasthan)(COLLEGE OF HOME SCIENCE, BIKANER SWAMI KESHWANAND RAJASTHAN AGRICULTURAL UNIVERSITY, BIKANER (Raj.), 2021) RITA MISHRA; Dr. (Mrs.) Vimla DukwalThe primary school - age of a child is roughly equivalent to the time scale from kindergarten to junior high school; it begins after the pre-school period with a high risk of mortality and resumes consecutive eminently of the adolescent maturing and sexual maturity until adulthood (Bulatoa and Stephens 1990).Young children are extremely vulnerable to various infections due to unhygienic and poor quality meal. Children must be granted their right to education and nutritious food for comprehensive development. Children are descendants of the country. Appropriate engrossment must be reimbursed to their quality education and nutritious healthy food. School-age children make up a significant proportion of the world’s population, about 24 per cent of the population in the less developed world and about 15 per cent of the industrialized world respectively. In primary school, children receive primary education at the age of about 6 to 12 years, coming to pre-school and middle school. In most regions of the world, primary education is the first stage of compulsory education and it can be provided free or at a paid private school (http://search.eb.com/eb).ThesisItem Open Access Development and Quality Evaluation of Kachri Powder - A Convenient Arid Souring Agent(Department of Food and Nutrition College of Home Science Rajasthan Agricultural University, Bikaner, 2008) Sonal Bhargava; (Mrs.) Vimla DunkwalThe arid fruit kachri (Cucumis callosus) was studied to develop technology for its powder and to study standardized powders for nutritional composition, shelf life and acceptability for different culinary uses.
