 Abstract

Mukha is one of the important parts in Urdwajatru. It works as a reflection of health of GI tract as it is the gateway of alimentary canal. Smoking, unhealthy food habits, improper oral hygiene cause adverse effect on health of human body . These are the prime causative factors which leads to Mukha ,Danta and Dantamoolagata Rogas. Sitada is one among the Dantamoolagata Rogas. There is a vitiation of Kapha and Rakta resulting in Raktasraava from the gums. Gums becomes Krishna ,Mrudu, Jeerna further leads to Prakledana and Durgandhatwa of oral cavity. Gingivitis if neglected and left untreated, further progress to its later stage known as periodontitis which involves deeper structures of the periodontium. Modern management is not satisfactory as their treatment of repeated scaling is harmful for teeth and is mildly painful. Mechanical removal of plaque and debris by scaling causes trauma to the gums. The current research was carried out while taking into account effectiveness, cost, convenience in utilization, and routine application. ? 60 patients fulfilling the diagnostic and inclusion criteria irrespective of gender, religion, occupation, marital status, socio economic status, educational status were selected for the study. ? Both the groups individually had a highly significant outcome in all evaluation parameters such as Akasmath Rakthasrava,Shotha, Krishnatha, Dantamamsa mrudutha, Dantamamsa Prakledatha, Mukhadaurgandhya, Gingival index and Plaque index. When the outcomes of the evaluation criteria were compared between the groups, there was significant difference. ? It has been statistically proven that there is statistically significant difference in the effect of Priyanguvadi Pratisarana and Patadi Pratisarana with Patadi Pratisarana having better effect than Priyanguvadhi Pratisarana in Sitada(Gingivitis).

 Abstract

Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) and X Ray Diffraction (XRD) spectroscopy measurements for Polymethyl Methacrylate (PMMA) and Ethyl Cellulose (EC) polyblends (1:2 and 1:3) doped with different percentages (0%, 5% and 10%) of Oxalic Acid in tetrahydrofuran (THF) at room temperature were prepared using isothermal evaporation techniques. Polymers like Ethyl Cellulose (EC) and Poly Methyl Methacrylate (PMMA) being essentially insulating materials, the number of free charge carriers is very small and their mobility is very low. These measured spectra were then used to evaluate the optical energy gap in relation to blend composition. X-ray diffraction (XRD) was used to identify the molecular interaction arising in the mentioned polymer blend films. The peculiar deviation confirms the structural changes in the prepared samples.

Abstract It has been 32 years of ASEAN -India relations, and this relation has emerged as a key pillar of India's foreign policy. The evolution of this relationship into a Strategic Partnership in 2012 was an outcome of the significant changes in the world's political and economic scenario since the early 1990s. India became a Sectoral Partner of the ASEAN in 1992, Dialogue Partner in 1996 and Summit Level Partner in 2002. The India- ASEAN Strategic Partnership acquired a new momentum with the announcement of "Act-East Policy" in the 12th Summit in 2014. . The Act-East Policy (AEP) emphasizes on "Connectivity, Commerce and Culture" as the focus areas of action for a greater ASEAN-India integration. The Act East policy builds upon the foundation of the Look East policy (LEP) by adopting a more comprehensive, proactive, and multidimensional approach to engage with the broader Asia-Pacific region, addressing both economic and strategic dimensions more effectively. The significance of ASEAN for India is multidimensional and encompasses political, economic, strategic, and cultural aspects. The ASEAN-India relation mainly aims to foster cooperation, stability and peace in the Asia-Pacific region. The key aspect of this strategic partnership includes political dialogue, economic integration, security cooperation, cultural ties, and people to people connectivity between ASEAN- India. This research paper examines the various dimensions of India's strategic partnership with ASEAN (The Association of Southeast Asian Nations).

 Abstract

Ahara is one of the three pillars of Ayurveda. Main aim of Ayurveda is to maintain good health i.e., free from diseases. Ahara plays an important role in achieving it. The dietetic principles of Ayurveda handle the idea of Ahara, from food collecting to food storage, from quantity required to how to eat, when to eat. Now there is a drastic drift in the method of preparation and storage of food items due to urbanisation and also there is less access to fresh foods. All food harbour one or more types of microorganisms as they depend on food for nutrients necessary for their growth and development. Food spoilage is the process in which food deteriorates to the point it is not edible to humans or its quality of edibility becomes reduced. Food spoiling organisms grow at different rates depending on temperature, moisture content, and other factors. These characteristics also determine how long food is edible and nutritious. Annaraksha practices offer a variety of methods, for determining whether food, contains any hazardous substances.

 Abstract

This article analyses the concept of "social media," arguing that it is not fundamentally different from traditional media in terms of its communication functions. It highlights how social media platforms, while offering social value, are primarily controlled by a small group of wealthy individuals who profit from user-generated content, contributing to wealth inequality. Additionally, the article examines the role of media, particularly social media, revealing how it played a key role in disseminating information to the public. The study underscores the critical role of media in shaping public awareness of social issues, while also noting that media consumption habits remained largely unchanged. This research highlights the significance of media in modern society and calls for a more critical examination of social media's role in shaping public discourse.

 Abstract

Yoga constitutes a collective of physical, mental, and spiritual practices or disciplines that originated in ancient India, with the objective of regulating body and mind to achieve various salvation goals, as observed in the Hindu, Jain, and Buddhist traditions. One of the foremost advantages of yoga is its capacity to augment mental resilience. Specially-abled students frequently encounter elevated levels of stress and anxiety due to difficulties associated with their conditions. The study examined the effect of yogic practice on selected psychological variables among specially-abled students of West Bengal. For the purpose of the study 50 Deaf and Dumb school students selected from various district of West Bengal equally divided two group (25 in each group), i.e. Group I from Experimental group got 8 weeks Yogic training and Group II for Control group didn't get any experimental training. Pre and post test scores were collected for both groups. After analysis of data (SPSS 27.0- Descriptive statistics, Independent 't' test) it was found that the findings collectively reinforce the notion that structured interventions can serve as effective mechanisms in promoting positive transformations in self-concept, particularly when they are tailored to address specific components of individual self-awareness and self-esteem and emotional intelligence scores between pre-test and post-test evaluations in both the experimental and control groups indicates the substantial impact of the intervention on the advancement of emotional intelligence.

 Abstract

The per capita of power in India is insufficient compared to other developed countries in the world. Hence, the only way is the optimal utilization of available energy sources but the difference between production and consumption of electrical energy, during summer is very high, due to large utilization of cooling machines like Air conditioner, Air coolers in such case a software industry, like BPO call center or any office with large server and many systems need to have a 24 hours working Air conditioner. This leads to huge power consumption. Conservative measures need to be initiated and implement to decrease this gap to restrain this situation the concert of DSM has begun in power system planning and management. Therefore this paper included Fuzzy logic applied to Ac which results to calculate the actual hourly turn off period and reduction in energy consumption. By the optimal consumption of electrical power results increase saving by reducing the electricity bill and reduce the over load on live grid during peak hours and also calculate the cost of savings and playback period for the return of investment. In this paper, solar energy is used to run air conditioner. The cost of saving and playback period is calculated by considering only photo voltaic (PV) and photo voltaic with fuzzy controller, Results proved that usage of PV with fuzzy controller has better annual savings and lower pay back period compared with only considering PV.

An ICU is a specialized section of a hospital that provides comprehensive and continuous care for patients who are critically ill and who can benefit from treatment. Most patients in ICU require mechanical ventilation. A machine designed to move breathable air into and out of the lungs, to provide breathing for a patient who is physically unable to breathe and is admitted in ICU. VAP is the most common nosocomial infection in ICUs which is responsible for increased stay due to prolonged ventilator days. VAP is the type of lung infection that occurs in patients who are on mechanical ventilation for more than 48 hours. The aim of the study is to critically review the incidence and identify the various risk factors and conclude specific measures to be undertaken to prevent VAP. In this study we found that out of 30 nurses, (76.66%) staff nurses belongs to the age group of 25 to 30, 27(90%) were female followed by 3(10%) as well as 16 (53.33%) were Christians followed by 14(4.66%) were Hindu.

The rapid evolution of technology presents numerous business opportunities, particularly with the advent of Machine Learning (ML), which has revolutionized the contemporary business landscape. ML tools offer marketing professionals unprecedented capabilities, streamlining business operations and prompting a paradigm shift in marketing strategies. Consequently, the significance of investing in and adopting AI technologies, integral to modern marketing tasks, becomes undeniable. This study focuses on elucidating the impact of customer retention and service quality leveraging a proposed Machine Learning Model. By examining these dynamics, we aim to underscore the significance of a highly integrated approach to innovation, discovery, creation, and customer retention, thereby advancing strategies for sustainable growth and competitiveness in the private sector banks. Customer acquisition remains pivotal for new entrants, while retention emerges as the cornerstone of success for established institutions, offering a cost-effective means of sustaining profitability. CRM practices empower Indian bankers to achieve business objectives by acquiring and retaining valuable customers, integrating them seamlessly into the entire business ecosystem. Yet, despite its criticality, customer retention often takes a back seat to acquisition in the priorities of banking. The Banking and Financial Sectors, now mature and robust, have embraced ML in various capacities within Customer Relationship Management (CRM) and marketing domains. These implementations yield profound impacts on customer loyalty, profitability, and Return on Investment (ROI). As the industry witnesses the emergence of specialized software tailored by IT firms to develop customized CRM solutions, the sector's dynamics, shaped by liberalization, privatization, and globalization (LPG), continue to diversify.
