This study analyzed patient demographics in the ophthalmology department at Indira Gandhi Medical College and Hospital (IGMCH) to assess relationships between age, sex, and eye conditions. While the overall sex distribution was equal, individual conditions varied, with cataracts and retinal disorders more common in males and conjunctival conditions slightly more prevalent in females, though none were statistically significant (p > 0.05) except for cataract patients aged 50–89 (p < 0.001). Understanding these trends can help medical facilities allocate resources more effectively for improved patient care.

The impact of timing and magnitude of the El Niño- Southern Oscillation on local precipitation levels and temperatures in the Bay Area

Understanding the relationships between temperature, MEI, SPI, and CO2 concentration is important as they measure the major influencers of California’s regional climate: temperature, ENSO, precipitation, and atmospheric CO2. In this article, the authors analyzed temperature, Multivariate El Niño-Southern Oscillation Index (MEI), and Standard Precipitation Index (SPI) data from the San Francisco Bay Area from 1971 to 2016. They also analyzed CO2 records from Mauna Loa, HI for the same time period, along with the annual temperature anomalies for the Bay Area.

The Effect of School Climate and Parenting Style on Academic Achievement
