 Abstract

A major percentage of upper - limb amputations involve partial hand loss including one or more fingers. This sort of limb amputation has been treated with basic design that leverage the movement of the remaining digit to grip against a stationary device. Nonetheless, scientific advancements and the adoption of advanced computer-aided tools for the formation and functional design of mechanisms have led to the creation of relatively smaller, more comprehensive approaches that are gradually improving body-powered and electrically-powered prototypes in recent years. This study examines economically feasible options offered in research or available on the market for single finger or partial hand prosthetics. First, the primary design criteria are identified. The underlying advantages and disadvantages of a large number of prototypes are then discussed. The ultimate objective is to provide a strong foundation for the study and development of the forthcoming generations of prostheses that can be built in an economically feasible manner to surpass the existing state-of-the-art prosthesis.

 Abstract

This study aims to explore the relationship between self-concept and life satisfaction among the youth. The research focuses on examining whether the two variables are correlated and if each of them has an impact on the other. The study collected data from 100 college-going students in India, aged between 18-25 years, with an equal representation of both genders. Self- Concept Questionnaire and Life Satisfaction Scale were used as instruments to measure the two variables. The results indicated that the average self-concept score is higher than the average life satisfaction score, and there was less variability in self-concept scores than life satisfaction scores. The study also found significant gender differences in the levels of self- concept and life satisfaction among the youth. The findings provided insights into how self- concept influences life satisfaction and how different factors affect them, which can help in developing interventions to improve the well-being of the youth.

 Abstract

Major risk factors for lifestyle diseases are present with priest's lifestyle. Daily responsibility of priests includes, sitting mostly for long working hours & taking high calorie diet in form of Prasad. Predisposition to these may give rise to lifestyle diseases. The need of study is find prevalence of obesity in Hindu Priests who endure long hours of duty while seated cross-legged and motionless so that a best exercise schedule can be followed by them regularly to prevent the onset of all the mentioned diseases at an early age. Method - - The study consist of 101 participants chosen according to inclusion and exclusion criteria ,BMI and WHR was measured and finding was noted, Acquired data was entered into statistical software. Result - There is high risk of CVD in this population. Conclusion - This study concluded that there is high prevalence of obesity that is 55% among these population by using BMI and 90% were having risk of developing lifestyle diseases by using WHR.

 Abstract

This research paper examines the relationship between social support and self-esteem in dancers. The study aimed to investigate the influence of social support on dancers' self-esteem, an area that has received limited attention in the existing literature. A sample of 100 professional dancers aged between 18 and 35 was recruited through purposeful and snowball sampling techniques. Two inventories, the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale and the Oslo Social Support Scale, were used to assess self-esteem and social support, respectively. Descriptive and correlation analyses were conducted to analyze the data. The results revealed a positive correlation between social support and self-esteem (r = 0.267, p < 0.01), supporting the hypothesis and previous research findings. Dancers who perceived higher levels of social support reported higher self-esteem. The implications of the study suggest that social support plays a significant role in strengthening dancers' self-perceptions and overall well-being. The dance community provides dancers with a sense of acceptance, belongingness, and validation, which contribute to positive self-perceptions and increased self-esteem. However, the study has certain limitations, including a specific sample from a particular region and reliance on self-report measures. Future research should aim to include a more diverse and representative sample to enhance the generalizability of the findings. Additionally, the use of objective measures and a combination of methodologies could provide a deeper understanding of emotional regulation, social support, and self-esteem in dance. Longitudinal studies could explore temporal dynamics and causal relationships between these variables over time. Qualitative research methods may provide a more nuanced understanding of dancers' experiences with emotional regulation, social support, and self-esteem. In conclusion, this study highlights the positive relationship between social support and self-esteem in dancers. The findings emphasize the importance of social support within the dance community in shaping dancers' self-perceptions and overall well-being. The research contributes to the existing knowledge on the psychological aspects of dance and calls for further investigation into the complex interplay between emotional regulation, social support, and self-esteem in dancers.

Abstract: Scrotal cystocele, commonly known as a complete herniation of the urine bladder into the scrotum. Most of the people who have had it reported are older, and they frequently have obstructive symptoms. Scrotal cystocele, or inguino-scrotal herniation of the bladder, is extremely an uncommon yet clinically significant disease that if ignored preoperatively. We discuss the characteristics of scrotal cystocele on computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging, as well as the radiologic findings of this uncommon condition that have been reported in the literature.

 Abstract

Background- The use of spiral computed tomography (CT) for the diagnosis of pulmonary embolism has been compared to angiography, the current gold standard. However, the accuracy of CT has never been evaluated against an independent gold standard. The aim of this study was to compare contrast-enhanced spiral CT to pulmonary angiography for the detection of sub segmental sized pulmonary emboli. Methods and materials- this is a retrospective observational study. Based on case records, 20 patients with acute pulmonary embolism were selected. After routine investigations, only if haemodynamically stable, Spiral CT was performed, followed by pulmonary angiography. Spiral CT and angiography were interpreted independently by two radiologists. Results- Majority of the patients presented with dyspnoea. Spiral CT was performed, and 16/20 patients had evidence of acute pulmonary embolus in the sub segmental vessels. It was sub-optimal in 4 patients. Sensitivity and specificity for CT and angiography, respectively, were: 88% vs 93.33%, 75% vs 82.42% respectively. Accuracy of CT and angiography was comparable; 75.09% vs 76.14%. Conclusion- There was no difference between spiral CT and angiography for detection of sub-segmental-sized pulmonary emboli. We conclude that spiral CT is comparable to angiography for detection of pulmonary emboli.

 Abstract

The present century is known as the Century of skills. Generally speaking, the 21st century skills concept is motivated by the belief that teaching students the most relevant, useful, in-demand, and universally applicable skills should be prioritized in today's schools, and by the related belief that many schools may not sufficiently prioritize such skills or effectively teach them to students. Transferable skills are skills that are relevant and helpful across different situations and areas of life. Such skills are often seen as a crucial factor adding to the employability of individuals. The current piece of investigation is delineate the transferable skills among teachers in post-COVID period. It is based on a phenomenological approach, descriptive in nature. Nealy 140 teachers were selected ,out of which 137 responses were recorded. The results of the study revealed that there was no stark difference in their transferable skills but a majority of them are good at working with technology. Further, female teachers found to be more creative and male teachers in working with technology. Implications along with directions for future research were also portrayed.
