 Abstract

Women education is very important for the proper social and economic growth of the country. Nowadays, the importance of women's education is growing day by day. Education for women is the best way to improve the health, nutrition and economic status of a household that constitute a micro unit nation development. But position of girl's education is not improving according to determined parameter for women. Even though the Indian government has taken some measures such as the 'Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan', 'Beti Bachao, Beti Padhao', 'Sukanya Samriddhi Yojana' and also the government of West Bengal special scheme for girl child, i.e. 'Kanyashree Scheme', but the attitude towards girl child is very negative in our society even on today. Hence, this study is mainly framed to design to know the educational status of women along with the socio economic status, marital status, first baby gender preference, and mother's age at first baby born. The study has been conducted during the month of September to October 2023 in Moyna block under Purba Medinipur district of West Bengal. It has been found that about 42% women whose age during marriage was below 18 years in Moyna block of Purba Medinipur district. In the study area, 30% women under studied expressed their desire regarding first baby gender as 'boy'. In the study area, surprisingly no woman wants a baby girl as her first child. It has been found that 60.68% women's age were below 19 years when their first baby was born. Though there is no illiterate woman in the study area , but only 5.09%, 5.09%, 20.38% passed Class VIII, matriculation, and higher-secondary examination respectively. About 15.28% and 6.36% women passed B.A. and M.A. respectively, though their employment scenario is not good, most of them are housewife.

Intravenous fluid therapy is the fastest way to deliver fluids or medications directly into a vein. It is common aspect of therapy used for the dilution of medication and maintenance of body fluids, and widely used in hospital settings. Intravenous fluid administration practices are important and remain an essential part of patients' care during hospitalization. Globally, approximately 25 million people receive intravenous (IV) therapy by the use of an intravenous cannula. It is a routine but potentially harmful procedure in hospitals. Methodology- The current study was a descriptive hospital based cross-sectional study among the nursing staff at the Gwalior. The total sample size were consists of 50 study participants were selected by the using of purposive sampling technique. The data collection by the self-structured to collect the data and analysis by the using of SPSS. Results- The study revealed that the majority out of 50 study participants, highly majority 84% of staff nurses were have average knowledge, 12% of staff nurse were have excellent knowledge, and, least 4% were have inadequate knowledge regarding the Intravenous administration. Respectively in study results depicts that practice staff nurses is score 16(32%) in average range while 34(68%) nurses score in good range in administration of IV therapy. Discussion and conclusion- that there is a positive correlation between knowledge and practice of staff nurses regarding administration of IV therapy. Scores are (r = 0.165, p< 0.05) hence null hypothesis (H0) is rejected and research hypothesis (H1) was accepted. There is positive correlation between knowledge and practice of staff nurses that is knowledge increases there is slightly increases in practices also. There is no significant association between age and knowledge gender, professional qualification, total clinical experience, availability of IV therapy equipment's, attended in service educational programme, and, frequency of administering IV therapy per day (>0.05)

Secondary metabolites that organisms make and use for defense or adaptation are known as natural products. Throughout history, people have utilized plants and their parts extensively to treat a wide range of illnesses. Any phytochemical obtained from food and its byproducts offer an abundance of novel anti-cancer substances. Flavonoids like luteolin (3,4,5,7-tetrahydroxy flavone) are present in a variety of plants, including fruits, vegetables, and medicinal herbs. It functions as an anticancer agent against a variety of human cancers, including pancreatic, lung, breast, glioblastoma, prostate, and colon cancers. Additionally, it prevents the growth of cancer in vivo and in vitro by preventing the growth of tumor cells, shielding them from carcinogenic stimuli, triggering cell cycle arrest, and triggering apoptosis via various signaling pathways. Furthermore, luteolin can reverse the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) by downregulating the mesenchymal biomarkers vimentin, N-cadherin, and snail as well as inducing the expression of the epithelial biomarker E-cadherin through cytoskeleton shrinkage.

The Goods and Services Tax (GST), implemented in India in 2017, marked a significant reform in the indirect tax system. This study investigates the impact of GST on retailers, exploring both the positive and negative aspects of its implementation. Through a survey of retailers and analysis of secondary data, the research examines changes in tax burden, compliance procedures, and operational efficiency. The findings reveal that GST has streamlined the tax structure, reduced cascading effects, and facilitated easier inter-state transactions. However, challenges such as initial compliance complexity, technology adoption costs, and potential disruptions for smaller retailers were also identified. The study concludes that GST's impact on retailers is multifaceted, offering long-term benefits alongside initial hurdles.

Every year, several students apply to various universities for graduate admission. For the purpose of selecting applicants, each institution has its own set of selection criteria, which may include GRE scores, CGPAs, research experience, personal statements, letters of recommendation, and university rankings. The finest university can be suggested using web applications and consulting services based on a student's portfolio. These offer details on the colleges that applicants have to take into account. They are limited, nonetheless, by the reality that humans are unable to account for every institution and circumstance. Accuracy concerns might arise with web applications. We proposed a deep neural network (DNN) in this study to predict a student's chance of admission to a university based on their portfolio. Additionally, we offer a stacked ensemble model that projects

 Abstract

The antiquity of microlithic research in Odisha goes back to the pre-independence era. It has brought to light extensive evidence of lithic assemblages from the post-Pleistocene and early-Holocene deposits in different parts of the state. All these microlithic sites have been reported from three different types of geomorphologic contexts, viz. along the river banks and its tributaries of different orders, on the raised surfaces with massive exposure of rock outcrops, and the foothills. Some of these sites have also been found to be associated with rock shelter habitats. The present paper is based on the archaeological investigations conducted in the Keonjhar district, mainly in the Salandi and Baitarani River Basin, to understand the cultural landscape, site distribution pattern and nature of sites of this region. Since last year, my fieldwork around the middle tracts of the Salandi and Baitarani River basin, particularly in the Boula-Hadagarh Reserve Forest region, which resulted in the evidence of microlithic tool assemblages, has been found in Sujanapal area near the Chakartritha Hills in the Anandapur Taluk, surrounding areas of Batto village in the Ghasipura block, Gada Singidi and Gada Chandi Hill in the Hatadihi Taluk of Keonjhar district. The preliminary study on these microlithic sites situated in different geomorphological contexts gives some idea about the characteristic features of the lithic assemblages, composition, and different tool technologies used by prehistoric knappers during the time of tool production.

 Abstract

Protecting sensitive data from potential dangers is crucial in the current digital world. Since cloud computing has become widely used and data storage has been outsourced, it has become more difficult to safeguard information, especially from threats like memory leaks. This effort presents a novel cryptographic architecture called "Memory Leakage-Resilient Dynamic and Verifiable Multi-keyword Ranked Search on Encrypted" (MLRDV-MKRSE) in answer to these difficulties. The primary aim of this project is to design and implement a safe and effective solution that tackles vulnerabilities resulting from memory leaks. Additionally, this system need to provide multi-keyword ranked searches on encrypted data that may be verified and support dynamic data activities. In order to maintain data confidentiality, integrity, and availability even in the event of memory leakage occurrences, sophisticated cryptographic techniques will be utilized. Strong encryption algorithms to prevent unwanted access, flexible data management systems to meet changing data requirements, and verifiable search features that guarantee quick access to relevant data without sacrificing privacy are just a few of the essential components of the suggested plan. To assess the performance, security, and practicality of the suggested solution, extensive testing and assessment will be carried out. The goal of this research is to greatly improve safe data management methods by creating the Memory Leakage-Resilient Dynamic and Verifiable Multi-keyword Ranked Search on Encrypted scheme. In the end, it aims to provide a workable solution for safeguarding private data in cloud settings and other data outsourcing situations.

 Abstract

Clinical practice faces a significant diagnostic challenge with pulmonary lesions, spanning a wide spectrum of anomalies within the lung parenchyma, from benign nodules to malignant tumors. While traditional imaging methods like computed tomography (CT) are crucial for lesion detection, relying solely on qualitative assessment often leads to imprecise lesion definition. In contrast, quantitative CT analysis offers a sophisticated approach to obtaining accurate quantitative metrics from radiological images, enabling objective and consistent evaluation of lesion morphology, density, and texture. This study aims to explore the potential revolutionary benefits of quantitative CT analysis in characterizing pulmonary lesions, shedding light on their biology, prognosis, and treatment responsiveness. Through a comprehensive review of existing research and empirical data analysis, we elucidate the clinical implications and translational prospects of quantitative CT analysis in pulmonary medicine. Furthermore, we discuss the emerging role of radiomics, employing advanced machine learning techniques, including Attention U-Net, to unravel the molecular heterogeneity underlying pulmonary diseases. The integration of quantitative CT analysis into the diagnostic toolkit of pulmonary medicine heralds a new era of more accurate and individualized patient care. By leveraging quantitative measures beyond the constraints of qualitative assessment, we seek to revolutionize pulmonary lesion evaluation and push the boundaries of clinical practice, ultimately leading to improved patient outcomes.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: Postpartum haemorrhage (PPH) is commonly defined as blood loss exceeding 500 mL following vaginal birth and 1000 mL following caesarean section. As the effect of blood loss is more important rather than the amount of blood lost, the clinical definition, which is more practical states, "any amount of bleeding from or into the genital tract following birth of the baby up to the end of the puerperium, which adversely affects the general condition of the patient evidenced by a rise in pulse rate and falling blood pressure is called postpartum haemorrhage".1 WHO has also issued a guideline to provide a foundation for the implementation of interventions shown to have been effective in reducing the burden of PPH, while emphasizing that in the developed world, PPH is a largely preventable and manageable condition.2 OBJECTIVES: o To assess the pretest and posttest level of knowledge regarding PPH among Midwives working in selected health centres of Guwahati, Assam. o To determine the effectiveness of video assisted teaching program on knowledge regarding PPH among Midwives working in selected health centres of Guwahati, Assam. o To find out the association between the pretest level of knowledge of PPH among Midwives with the selected demographic variables in selected health centres of Guwahati, Assam. METHODS AND MATERIALS: The investigator conducted an evaluative study to identify the effectiveness of video assisted teaching program on knowledge regarding postpartum haemorrhage among midwives working in selected health centres of Guwahati, Assam in order to accomplish the objectives of the study. To obtain the adequate sample for the study, non-probability purposive sampling technique was used. The study was undertaken on 45 midwives who were working in selected health centres of Guwahati, Assam. Participants were selected on the basis of inclusion and exclusion criteria. Effectiveness of video assisted teaching program on knowledge regarding postpartum haemorrhage among midwives working in selected health centres were assessed by pre-test and posttest self structured questionnaire to the respondents. RESULT: Result showed that out of 45 respondents majority i.e., 24(53.3%) respondents were between the age group of 31-40 years, Majority i.e., 38(84.4%) were married, majority i.e., 45(100%) of the respondents were female, majority i.e., 36(80%) of respondents have passed out G.N.M, majority i.e., 23(51.1%) of respondents have 5-10 years experience, majority i.e., 17(37.8) of respondents have conducted 21-30 deliveries, majority i.e., 33(73.3%) did not have any exposure to cases related with Postpartum Haemorrhage and majority i.e., 42(93.3%) have not attend any specialized midwifery training related to Postpartum Haemorrhage. In the pre-test knowledge, majority i.e., 39(86.67%) had inadequate knowledge and 6(13.33%) had moderately adequate knowledge regarding PPH and none of the respondents have adequate knowledge. In post-test knowledge, majority i.e., 42(93.33%) had adequate knowledge and 3(6.67%) had moderate knowledge regarding PPH and none of the respondents have inadequate knowledge. In pretest, the mean score of knowledge was 4.36 and standard deviation 2.75 and the posttest mean score of knowledge was 21.11, standard deviation 3.421. The mean difference score was 16.75. The calculated paired "t" test value of value of t=21.945 was statistically significant at p<0.001 level. This clearly infers that after the administration of Video Assisted Teaching regarding postpartum haemorrhage among midwives was found to be effective and the midwives gained adequate knowledge in the posttest. The analysis depicted that the demographic variables- any exposure to cases related with Postpartum Haemorrhage (p=0.035) and any specialized midwifery training attended related to Postpartum Haemorrhage (p=0.043) had statistically significant association with pretest level of knowledge regarding postpartum haemorrhage among midwives at p<0.05 level. The other demographic variables did not show statistically significant association with pretest level of knowledge regarding postpartum haemorrhage among midwives at p<0.05 level. CONCLUSION: From this study, the investigator concluded that there was significant difference in the pretest and posttest knowledge score and therefore the video assisted teaching program among midwives working in selected health centres in Guwahati, Assam was effective.

 Abstract

The gig economy in India is witnessing significant growth, fuelled by platforms like Ola, Zomato, and BigBasket. Despite providing flexibility, gig workers face challenges such as job insecurity and lack of benefits. With 7.7 million engaged in gig work in 2020-21, comprising 2.6% of the non-agricultural workforce, the sector is expected to create 23.5 million jobs by 2029-30. However, issues like unfair pay and poor working conditions persist. While the government has introduced measures like the Code on Social Security, implementation challenges remain. This paper explores the implications of the gig economy on India's economic goals, emphasising the need for policies ensuring worker well-being and sustainable growth.
