UNSTRUCTURED DattaMeghe Institute of Medical Sciences has been declared as Deemed to be University [DMIMS (DU)] under section 3 of UGC Act, 1996 in the year 2005. The University examinations are conducted as per the rules, regulations and guidelines issued by the various Apical councils of India from time to time. The first University exam was conducted in the year 2006. DMIMS (DU) has initiated various reforms by its own in assessment and evaluation process based on needs. For any system to thrive, it needs to be constantly upgraded and critically evaluated. Therefore, a study is undertaken with this in mind and thereby aimed at evaluation and validation of the assessment and evaluation reforms formulated and implemented at DMIMS (DU) since its inception (year 2006).Need analysis for the assessment and evaluation reforms will be carried out on the basis of feedbacks and reports received from respective stakeholders (Students, Faculty and External examiners) from time to time. Outcome analysis of the Feedbacks and reports will be done subsequently after the implementation of the assessment and evaluation reforms. Further based on the outcome analysis, reforms will be validated into following parameters: Objectivity, Responsiveness, User friendliness, Residual component (not covered in above 3 parameters)and a satisfactory index will be derived. If satisfactory index for reform is 100%, it will be concluded that reforms are well received and good to excellent in nature. Total 33 assessment and evaluation reforms have beenimplemented since year 2006. These reforms will be categorised into Pre-Examination (n=18), On Site Examination (n=05) and Post Examination (n=10), and in each category, they will befurther classified into academic (Total =15) and administrative (Total = 18) on the basis of their domain for the ease of structuring and implementation.All the 33 reforms will be validated on the basis of defined parameters. They will be found satisfactory.

BACKGROUND Background: Prior studies have shown that meal composition is capable of effect on metabolic response and arterial stiffness indexes. OBJECTIVE Objective: A three-phase parallel study will design to investigate the effects of meal composition on metabolic parameters and arterial stiffness indexes among lean and obese adult. The planned study protocol is presented METHODS Methods/design: This is a parallel clinical trial targeting adults (aged 18–35 years, free from any diseases) selected by inclusion and exclusion criteria at Mashhad University Medical Sciences. Each subject will complete three interventions with a washout period of one week: high carbohydrate, high protein and high fat meal. The postprandial effect will be assessed during 360 minutes from each meal including energy expenditure component, pulse wave analysis and pulse wave velocity and blood sampling. RESULTS N/A CONCLUSIONS Metabolic Responses, Macronutrients Composition, Arterial Stiffness, Study Protocol: The differences in postprandial response due to different meal composition could affect of metabolic and vascular parameters. This could provide necessary information for the establishment of new strategies in terms of nutritional education and metabolic and vascular improvement.

Abstract Background Amblyopia, as a neurodevelopmental preventable visual disorder, affects approximately 1.1 % in Asia. A binocular approach to treating amblyopia has been recently proposed. Whether the binocular playing game treatment is comparable to patching treatment needs further randomized clinical trials. To address this, the present research, designs, develops, and evaluates a new binocular game to treat amblyopia. Methods This study has been designed as a non-inferiority, randomized, two parallel-group, controlled trial. Forty-four patients between 4 and 12 years diagnosed with amblyopia will be randomly assigned to the control and intervention groups. In the intervention group, amblyopia treatment is provided with red-green anaglyphic glasses and a red filter placed in front of the amblyopic eye, along with a game to be played for 30 min twice a day. Those in the control group will receive patch therapy according to amblyopia treatment study protocol. The primary outcome is to change visual acuity in the amblyopic eye from the baseline to 3 months after randomization. Ethics and dissemination The Ethics Committee of Mashhad University of Medical sciences’ approval date was February 28, 2018, with a reference code of IR.MUMS.fm.REC.1396.783. Thus far, the recruitment of participants has not been completed and is scheduled to end in September 2021. The results will be disseminated in a peer-reviewed journal. Trial registration Iranian Registry of Clinical Trials IRCT20180217038768N1. Registered on 22 April 2019.

Background: Accreditation forms chief platform to the fact that higher education should be accurately directed towards betterment, sharpening, honing and nourishing intellectual persona of learners. There is palpable need to critically analyze manuals embodying accrediting guidelines for Medical Sciences Universities / Institutions prescribed by NAAC as against guidelines in vogue in U.S. and U.K. with reference to any identifiable inadequacy pertaining to meaningful accreditation of Medical Sciences Universities / Institutions and proposing an ideal model towards meaningful accreditation . Aim and Objectives: To critically evaluate manuals of accreditation of Medical Sciences Universities / Institutions notified by National Accreditation and Assessment Council with reference to those in vogue in U.S. and U.K. and generate updated manual for accreditation of Medical Science Universities / Institutions in India. Methods: Type of study: Descriptive study. Duration of study: 2 years. Place of study: Jawaharlal Nehru Medical College, Sawangi Meghe, Wardha. Expected Results: Generation of upgraded manual of accreditation of Medical Universities / Institutions in India. Conclusion: Updated manual of accreditation of medical Sciences Universities / Institutions in India could be availed by National Assessment and Accreditation Council for its utilization as a basal / referral document towards the necessary policy frame.

IntroductioneHealth is critically important to build strong health systems, and accelerate the achievement of sustainable development goals, particularly universal health coverage. To support and strengthen the health system, the eHealth architecture needs to be formulated and established prior to the implementation and development of any national eHealth applications and services. The aim of this study is to design and validate a standard questionnaire to assess the current status of national eHealth architecture (NEHA) components.Methods and analysisThis study will use a mixed-methods design consisting of four phases: (1) item generation through review of evidences and experts’ opinions, (2) face and content validity of the questionnaire, (3) determination of a range of possible scenarios for each item included in the questionnaire and (4) evaluation of reliability. This questionnaire is expected to generate critical and important information about the status of NEHA components that will be useful for monitoring, formulating, developing, implementing and evaluating NEHA. Our paper will contribute, we envisage, to establishment of a socio-technical basis on which governments and other relevant sectors can compare the policy interventions that boost the availability and utilisation of eHealth services within their settings.Ethics and disseminationThe Ethics Committee for Research at the Tehran University of Medical Sciences approved the study protocol. We will obtain informed consent from each participant and collect data anonymously to maintain confidentiality. The translation of the findings into future policy planning will include the production of a series of peer-reviewed articles, presentation of the findings at relevant eHealth conferences and preparation of policy reports to the international organisations aiming to strengthen national capacity for better-informed eHealth architecture.
