 Abstract

Introduction: The use of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) models has brought about a significant transformation in the way periodontists gather information, evaluate associated risks, develop different treatment alternatives, predict and diagnose dental conditions that threaten periodontal health. The main objective of this prospective study was to investigate how periodontists understand and accept the application of AI in periodontology. Materials and methods: This observational study was conducted on 273 participants grounded on questionnaire using Google Forms. These forms were pre-validated and latterly circulated among dental professionals (DP) and postgraduate students(PG's) via various social media platforms. The study comprised 15 closed-ended questions which were presented to the participants in English. These questions aimed to assess the awareness on operation of artificial intelligence in dental professionals and post-graduate students in the field of periodontology. To assay the collected data, experimenters employed the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 28.0. Result: Almost all of the participants (93.0%) were aware of artificial intelligence (AI) and around 85% had an opinion that AI can simplify the effort of dental professionals. The responses of to the questionnaire are represented the table1. 44.7 % agreed that AI applications should be part of undergraduate and postgraduate dental training and 100% of them presumed that AI can aid patient management and dental assistance in the near future. Conclusion: Most dental professionals and post-graduate students had a reasonable level of understanding regarding the use of artificial intelligence in periodontics and expressed a desire to incorporate it into their periodontal disease diagnostic and treatment planning. Further efforts are needed to increase the awareness among dental professionals about the effective implementation of AI in their professional practice to facilitate individualized treatment planning for their respective patients. The integration of AI is expected to increase the likelihood of achieving favourable outcomes in DPs and PG's.

 Abstract

Forensic audit is defined as an investigation of evidence pertaining to a case to ascertain if it complies with predetermined standards, conducted in a way that is appropriate for the court. In his study, Cressy (2012) clarified that particular steps are taken in forensic auditing to generate evidence. Recent years have seen a number of banking collapses and scandals in India, jeopardizing the economy and shattering investor faith. There are several instances of banks failing as a result of money being siphoned off and diverted into dubious ventures that ultimately harm consumers and the banking sector. This paper aims in finding the significance of forensic audit in the banking sector by understanding the data from RBI annual reports.

Psychological well-being plays a pivotal role in the academic performance of a student's career. Academic performance refers to the measurable results that reflect how an individual has successfully attained specific goals in educational settings, particularly in schools, colleges, and universities. This research aims to find out the relationship between Academic Performance and the Psychological Well-being of trainee teachers. In this research, the descriptive survey method was used to collect data. The Psychological Well-being Scale (PWBS-AA) developed by Anjum Ahmed (2021) was used to evaluate Psychological Well-being, and for academic performance, the previous year's mark sheet percentage was collected.Simple random sampling technique, the total data of 234 trainee teachers were collected from Aligarh Muslim University, Aligarh. This study used statistical mean, standard deviation, independent sample t-test and correlation coefficient to analyse the data. The results shows a significant difference in academic performance and psychological well-being of rural and urban trainee teachers, but no significant difference was found between male and female students.

 Abstract

The maintenance, rehabilitation and upgrading of structural members, is one of the most important (crucial) problems in civil engineering applications. A structure is designed for a specific period and depending on the nature of the structure, its design life varies. For domestic building, this design life could be twenty-five years, whereas for a public building it could be fifty years. Deterioration in concrete structures is a major challenge faced by the infrastructure and bridge industries worldwide. The deterioration can be mainly due to environmental effects. In these effects, corrosion of steel, gradual loss of strength with aging, repeated high intensity loading, variation in temperature, freeze and thaw cycles and contact with chemical & saline water. Since replacement of such deficient elements of structures will be costly, strengthening has become the acceptable way of improving their load carrying capacity and extending their service life. One of the challenges in strengthening of concrete structures is selection of a strengthening method that will enhance the strength and serviceability of the structure.
