 Abstract

Background: Vaya is a fundamental Ayurvedic concept describing the sequential stages of human life based on growth, maturation, and ageing. This review examines these classical descriptions in the light of contemporary anatomical and developmental science. Objective: To correlate the Ayurvedic classification of Vaya with modern age classification and interpret its anatomical significance across the human lifespan. This review analyzes the classical descriptions of Garbhavastha, Bala Vaya, Madhyama Vaya, and Vruddha Vaya and compares them with current concepts of prenatal development, childhood, adulthood, and ageing. The study demonstrates that Ayurvedic features such as Dhatu maturation, Kapha, Pitta, and Vata predominance, and progressive changes in strength and tissue integrity closely correspond with modern anatomical, physiological, and developmental processes. Despite minor variations in age limits among different Acharyas, the functional characteristics of each stage show remarkable agreement with contemporary scientific knowledge. Integrating Ayurvedic principles with modern anatomy provides a comprehensive understanding of human growth, development, maturation, and senescence, highlighting the enduring scientific relevance of the concept of Vaya.

 Abstract

Floristic surveys play a vital role in documenting plant diversity and providing baseline information for biodiversity conservation, ecological studies, and environmental management. The present study was conducted at the Telangana Tribal Welfare Residential Degree College (Girls) campus, Asifabad, Kumuram Bheem Asifabad District, Telangana, India, to document the floristic diversity of the campus. Repeated field surveys were carried out during the study period covering different seasons, and all vascular plant species occurring within the campus were recorded through direct field observations. Plant specimens were identified using standard regional floras and authenticated taxonomic literature. A total of 185 plant species belonging to different families and genera were documented, representing trees, shrubs, herbs, climbers, grasses, sedges, and aquatic plants. The checklist includes several medicinally important, economically valuable, ornamental, and ecologically significant species. The study provides the first comprehensive floristic inventory of the college campus and establishes a valuable baseline database for future taxonomic, ecological, conservation, and educational studies. The documented flora will serve as an important reference for plant identification, biodiversity monitoring, and botanical education, particularly for undergraduate students, while also contributing to the regional floristic knowledge of Kumuram Bheem Asifabad District, Telangana.

 Abstract

Background Pseudomonas aeruginosa is one of the most important opportunistic pathogens responsible for hospital-acquired infections. Its remarkable ability to produce biofilms significantly contributes to antimicrobial resistance, persistent infections, prolonged hospitalization, and increased mortality. Biofilm-associated genes such as algD, pelA, pslA, and lasB play a vital role in biofilm formation and bacterial virulence. Understanding the association between biofilm production, biofilm-forming genes, and antimicrobial resistance is essential for improving infection control strategies and therapeutic outcomes. Objectives 1. To isolate and identify Pseudomonas aeruginosa from various clinical specimens. 2. To detect biofilm production using the Tissue Culture Plate (TCP) method. 3. To identify biofilm-forming genes using Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR). 4. To evaluate antimicrobial susceptibility patterns. 5. To determine the association between biofilm formation, biofilm genes, and multidrug resistance. Materials and Methods A hospital-based cross-sectional study was conducted over 12 months in the Department of Microbiology of a tertiary care hospital in Indore, Madhya Pradesh. A total of 180 non-duplicate clinical isolates of P. aeruginosa were recovered from urine, pus, wound swabs, respiratory secretions, blood, and other clinical specimens. Identification was performed using standard microbiological methods and biochemical tests. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was carried out according to CLSI guidelines using the Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion method. Biofilm production was assessed by the microtiter plate assay, and PCR was used to detect algD, pelA, pslA, and lasB genes. Results Among the 180 isolates, 112 (62.2%) were biofilm producers, including 41 (22.8%) strong, 46 (25.6%) moderate, and 25 (13.9%) weak producers. The prevalence of biofilm-associated genes was algD (90.2%), pslA (84.8%), pelA (79.5%), and lasB (92.0%) among biofilm-producing isolates. Biofilm producers demonstrated significantly higher resistance to ceftazidime (74.1%), ciprofloxacin (68.8%), meropenem (57.1%), imipenem (54.5%), and gentamicin (63.4%) compared with non-biofilm producers (p<0.001). Multidrug resistance was observed in 61.6% of biofilm producers compared with 23.5% of non-biofilm producers. Conclusion Biofilm formation is highly prevalent among clinical isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and is strongly associated with multidrug resistance. Detection of biofilm-associated genes provides valuable information regarding bacterial virulence and antimicrobial resistance, emphasizing the need for routine surveillance and effective antibiotic stewardship in tertiary care hospitals.

 Abstract

Enterprise Resource Planning, ERP systems are now a pretty central thing for modern organizations since they tie together multiple business functions , and in a way make daily operations run more smoothly. In India, the ERP scene seems to be changing fast, mostly because cloud computing is getting more popular, plus artificial intelligence, automation, data analytics, and these broader digital transformation programs that keep appearing. Many organizations, across sectors , are putting in ERP systems so that business processes get streamlined , decisions become easier to make , and overall organizational performance gets a boost. In this study, the main purpose is to look at what current ERP trends look like , and also to think about where ERP could realistically go next in India's business setting. For the research method, a qualitative approach was used, and the evidence came from semi-structured interviews. Participants included ERP consultants, project managers, IT professionals, business owners , and also ERP users. After the interviews, the data were processed using thematic analysis, so major patterns, opportunities, and obstacles around adopting ERP could be identified. The results suggest that cloud-based ERP options, AI integration, automation, and analytics-led decision-making are actively shaping what ERP will look like in India moving forward. At the same time, some stumbling blocks still show up--like implementation costs that can climb, employee resistance, training needs that take time, and cybersecurity worries that are not really going away. The study, overall , ends by saying that ERP systems will likely keep being important for digital transformation and for business growth across India.

 Abstract

Abstract This study examine how far Artificial Intelligence (AI) has actually been built into the Library Management Systems (LMS) of university libraries in Jammu and Kashmir. Rather than taking AI adoption for granted, the research checks, library by library, which automation and AI features can be verified from public documentary evidence. A descriptive design was used, centred on structured content analysis of the official websites, published facilities pages, institutional circulars, and recent institutional news items of five purposively chosen university libraries: the Allama Iqbal Library (University of Kashmir), Dhanvantri Library (University of Jammu), the Central Library at the Central University of Kashmir, the library of the Central University of Jammu, and the Rumi Library (Islamic University of Science and Technology, Awantipora). For each library, publicly available material was checked against a fixed checklist covering OPAC or integrated library management software, RFID-based self-check facilities, remote or off-campus access, institutional repositories, and any service explicitly branded as AI, such as a chatbot or recommendation engine. The results show that conventional automation is already well established at three of the five libraries: a functioning, documented OPAC or integrated library system (Virtua, LibSys-10, or a Koha-based platform) together with RFID-based self-check is confirmed for the University of Kashmir, the University of Jammu, and IUST, the last of which rolled out RFID as recently as April 2026. Only one library, however, has a genuinely AI-branded service in place: an official circular dated April 27, 2026, confirms that Allama Iqbal Library, University of Kashmir, launched its "AIL Chatbot" on April 23, 2026, inaugurated by the Vice Chancellor and described by the library itself as the first AI-powered chatbot introduced by any university library in Jammu and Kashmir. None of the remaining four libraries had any publicly documented AI-branded facility, whether chatbot or recommendation engine, at the time of writing. For the Central University of Kashmir and Central University of Jammu libraries specifically, even basic OPAC and RFID status could not be verified from official sources -- a public-documentation gap that is itself treated here as a substantive finding, distinct from the underlying technology gap. The study concludes that university libraries in the region have made real, verifiable progress on conventional automation, that one institution has now crossed into genuine AI-branded service delivery, and that the rest of the sample has yet to do so; it recommends fuller public disclosure of technology infrastructure alongside continued investment in staff training and AI-specific tools, with the Kashmir University case offered as a regional reference point.
