 Abstract

Ayurveda emphasizes the preservation of health and prevention of disease through a holistic approach that integrates physical and mental well-being. Skin complexion (Varna) is considered an important indicator of internal physiological balance, governed mainly by Bhrajaka Pitta and Rakta dhatu. Substances that maintain and enhance natural complexion are described as Varnya dravyas. Dhanvantari Nighantu, a classical Ayurvedic lexicon, provides detailed descriptions of several such drugs along with their pharmacological attributes.The present study aims to review and analyze the Varnya dravyas mentioned in Dhanvantari Nighantu and to correlate their classical properties with findings from modern scientific research, particularly melanin inhibitory activity. A literary review of Dhanvantari Nighantu, Ayurvedic Samhitas, and contemporary research articles was conducted. Eight Var?ya dravyas--Jatamansi, Gandhamansi, Vyaghranakh, Guggul, Rasanjan, Shirish, Shinshap, and Sarjak--were identified and evaluated.The study reveals that these dravyas predominantly possess Tikta-Kashaya rasa, Laghu-Ruksha guna, and Sheeta or Ushna veerya, contributing to Pitta-Rakta shaman and Tvak prasadana. Modern studies support their antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, tyrosinase inhibitory, and melanin inhibitory activities. The findings validate the relevance of classical Varnya dravyas in maintaining skin health and managing pigmentation disorders.

 Abstract

The identification of reliable, non-invasive biomarkers is a priority in pediatric healthcare, where early diagnosis and prevention play a decisive role in long-term outcomes. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small, non-coding RNA molecules that regulate gene expression and participate in multiple physiological and pathological processes. Recent studies have demonstrated that miRNAs are present in saliva in a stable form, making them attractive candidates for pediatric biomarkers, particularly where invasive sampling is ethically and practically challenging. This review summarizes the biological basis of microRNAs, their origin and stability in saliva, methodological considerations for salivary miRNA detection, and their potential applications in pediatric oral and systemic diseases. Ethical concerns, limitations, and future research directions are also discussed. Salivary microRNAs represent a promising tool for non-invasive pediatric diagnostics; however, further validation and standardization are required before routine clinical application.

 Abstract

Respiratory diseases constitute a major global health burden, contributing significantly to morbidity, mortality, and healthcare expenditure. Conditions such as bronchial asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), allergic rhinitis, upper and lower respiratory tract infections, and pulmonary tuberculosis continue to challenge modern healthcare systems due to their chronic nature, recurrent exacerbations, and adverse effects associated with long-term pharmacotherapy. Ayurveda, the traditional Indian system of medicine, offers a comprehensive approach to respiratory disease management through its unique principles of Tridosha, Pranavaha Srotas, Agni, and Ojas. Classical Ayurvedic texts including Charaka Samhita, Sushruta Samhita, and Ashtanga Hridaya describe respiratory disorders under conditions such as Shwasa, Kasa, Pratishaya, and Rajayakshma, along with detailed etiopathogenesis and treatment protocols. This systematic review aims to critically analyze classical Ayurvedic literature and contemporary research studies to evaluate the role of Ayurvedic management in respiratory diseases. Electronic databases such as PubMed, Google Scholar, AYUSH Research Portal, and peer-reviewed Ayurvedic journals were searched for relevant articles. Evidence suggests that Ayurvedic interventions including Shodhana, Shamana, Rasayana therapy, dietary regulations (Pathya Ahara), and yogic breathing practices (Pranayama) play a significant role in symptom control, disease prevention, and quality-of-life improvement. However, despite promising outcomes, the lack of large-scale randomized controlled trials highlights the need for further scientific validation. This review underscores the potential of Ayurveda as a complementary and integrative approach in respiratory disease management.

 Abstract

The digital era is fundamentally reshaping the global business ecosystem by replacing traditional organizational models with dynamic, agile, and adaptive systems. Digitalization, data-driven analytics, and interconnected ecosystems are redefining competitive structures, performance metrics, and value creation. This transformation extends beyond technology adoption to encompass cultural change, governance reconfiguration, and new modes of collaboration, enabling organizations to survive and compete in volatile and uncertain environments. Dynamic digital business models have become essential for sustaining competitive advantage and long-term organizational resilience. By fostering continuous learning, strategic agility, and innovation, these models allow firms to realign value propositions while integrating profitability with ethical, social, and environmental responsibility. Digital transformation thus acts as both a driver and framework for strategic evolution, encouraging inclusive innovation and sustainable practices. This study aims to examine how digital transformation reshapes organizational design, operations, and stakeholder collaboration to achieve performance excellence and sustainable outcomes. It explores the interplay between digital competencies and strategic agility, and analyses the role of data-driven decision-making, innovation systems, and ethical leadership in building competitive advantage and sustainable development. Grounded in the duality model, the study highlights that competitiveness and sustainability are interdependent, positioning digitalization as a catalyst for circular, inclusive, and adaptive growth in the future of enterprise sustainability.

 Abstract

Toni Morrison's fourth novel, Tar Baby, upon its publication, brought controversial critical views. It became a great commercial success and was an important contribution to the growth of her literary career. The novel centers around the tumultuous relationship between two lovers from extremely different and conflicting economic and social backgrounds and its ultimate dissolution. Morrison draws on the African American folktale in the Uncle Remus Tales written by the white American writer Joe Chandler Harris. In this version, the white farmer, Brown makes a tar doll in order to trap a mischievous rabbit 'B'rer rabbit' who ruins his cabbage garden. However, the rabbit outwits the farmer by tricking him into letting him throw him bade to the Brier patch and thus making his escape. In this novel, Morrison continues the pre-dominant concern of her earlier works - the search for identity. Here she focuses on the conflict between traditional black folk values and contemporary Euro-centric aspirations. However, this present novel marks a further step from the preceding works in the magnitude and complexity of Morrison's treatment of this quest theme.
