Stress related to work load is a recognized problem in health care workers. Nursing has been identified as an occupation that has high levels of stress. It was found that job stress brought about hazardous impacts not only on nurses' health but also in their abilities to cope with job demands. This seriously impairs the provision of quality care and the efficacy of health services delivery. Nursing has been identified by a number of studies as a stressful occupation. Emotional freedom technique (EFT) tapping is a mind-body method of tapping acupuncture points (acupoints) on the hands, face, and body with your fingertips while focusing on an issue or feeling you're hoping to resolve. This method may reduce stress and anxiety, improve performance, lessen cravings, and help resolve fears. The aim of the study was to assess the effectiveness of Emotional freedom technique on stress related to work load among staff nurses working in general wards of selected tertiary care hospital of the city. Methods : The present study was based on Quantitative research approach with One group pre test post test research design. Study was conducted on 100 staff nurses working in general wards of selected tertiary care hospital of the city who were selected by using non-probability purposive sampling technique. Semi structured questionnaire was used to collect demographic data and standardized perceived stress scale (PSS) to assess the level of perceived stress among nurses. Data analyzed using both descriptive and inferential statistics to describe and show the association between stress and the variables. Based on the objectives and the hypothesis the study data were analyzed by using various statistical tests such as frequency, percentage, mean, and standard deviation, t' test and chi square test. Result : The study result reveals that, majority 80% of samples having moderate stress score in Pre- test scores that has reduced to 24% in post- test after EFT. 14% of subjects were having mild stress in pre- test, which has hiked to 76%in post-test, Whereas 6% samples were having severe stress before EFT which was minimized to zero in post-test. There was a marked relapse in post EFT stress scores. The comparisons of the pre- test and post- test means scores of the stress were done by the paired t test. The pre- test average score was 18.83 with standard deviation of 4.28 whereas the post- test average score was 12.00 with standard deviation of 3.50. The test statistics value of the paired t test was 17.74 with p value 0.00. Shows that Emotional Freedom Technique intervened to reduce the severity of job stress was effective. Conclusion : The level of stress related to work load among staff nurses working in general wards reduced significantly after Emotional Freedom Technique. It is recommended that such technique has to be arranged for staff nurses to reduce stress

 Abstract

Cosmeceuticals are products that combine cosmetics and biologically active substances, claiming therapeutic or pharmacological benefits. They are used to treat dermatological conditions, nourish the skin, and enhance its appearance by improving tone, texture, and brightness, and reducing wrinkles. Unlike traditional cosmetics, cosmeceuticals aim to provide both aesthetic and skin health benefits. Herbal cosmeceuticals are particularly popular due to their safety and antioxidant properties. However, the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act does not officially recognize the term cosmeceuticals, and the FDA does not require pre-market review or verification of manufacturers' claims. While safety testing is standard for both cosmetics and cosmeceuticals, efficacy testing of active ingredients is not mandatory. Cosmeceuticals are limited to topical applications like ointments, lotions, and creams.

 Abstract

Talk about how some factors affect the likelihood of adverse drug reactions (ADRs). Using PubMed, the Cochrane database of systematic reviews, EMBASE, and IDIS, a comprehensive review of the literature published between 1991 and 2012 was conducted. The following keywords were used: ambulatory care, primary health care, iatrogenic disease causes, adverse drug reactions, medication errors, side effects, and treatment hazards. ADRs are caused by a variety of variables, some of which are associated with the patient, the medication, or society. For example, age has a significant influence on the incidence of adverse drug reactions (ADRs); patients of all ages are more susceptible to these responses than those of other age groups. ADRs are significantly impacted by alcohol use as well. ADRs are caused by a variety of reasons. Healthcare practitioners can do this by being aware of these factors. 1. Select the best medication schedules 2. Give each patient tailored guidance. 3. Take into account pharmacogenomics, or genetic predispositions. When making treatment decisions, healthcare providers can lower ADRs by taking into account both modifiable (such as smoking and alcohol consumption) and non-modifiable (such as age and genetics) factors.

 Abstract

Although the teaching profession has traditionally been regarded as low stress occupation (French et al.,1982) but during the past two decades the situation is somersaulted (Olivier & Venter,2003)Teaching is becoming more challenging as a profession, a more paper work, more bureaucracy and more unruly classes. Worldwide surveys reveal widespread concern about the effects of stress on teachers' sense of well-being and their willingness to stay in the profession. Progressive muscle relaxation [PMR] was first identified by Jacobson in 1934 as tensing and releasing of 16 muscle groups. Wolpe adapted it for use with systematic desensitization in 1948 and Bernstein and Borkovec in 1973 studied adjustments to the technique to fit cognitive behavioural stress management. Some of these adjustments are: 7 and 4 muscle groups, relaxation through recall, recall and counting, and counting. Empirical evidence supports the use of PMR in high level tension responses and mind body techniques. The aim of the study was to assess the effectiveness of Jacobson progressive muscle relaxation technique related to occupational stress among teaching staff of selected secondary schools of the urban city. Methods : A pre experimental method was undertaken where 80 teaching staff of secondary school were recruited as sample by non- probability convenient sampling method. Using NIOSH (National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health) Modified generic job stress scale data was collected. Data analyzed using both descriptive and inferential statistics to describe and show the association between occupational stress and the variables. Result : The study result depicted that, in pre-test 50% of the teaching staff had moderate(score 60-90) and 29% of them had severe (score 91-120) and 21% subjects had mild stress, while in post-test only 1% of the teaching staff remained in severe category of occupational stress (score 91-120), 75% of them had moved to mild occupational stress (score 31-60) and 24% of subjects had moderate occupational stress (score 61-90).The comparisons of the pre- test and post- test means of the occupational stress were done by the paired t test. Average occupational stress score in pre-test was 69.62 which has reduced to 52.42 in post-test. t-value for this test was 9.07 with 79 degrees of freedom. Corresponding p-value was small (less than 0.05).Occupational stress score in post-test was significantly low as compared to that in pre-test. Conclusion : It is concluded that the level of occupational stress among teaching staff was reduced significantly after application of Jacobson progressive muscle relaxation technique

Ensuring data privacy in secure cloud storage has heightened interest in searchable encryption techniques. This study focuses on a critical cryptographic construct known as public key encryption with keyword search (PEKS), which plays a pivotal role in cloud storage applications. Traditional PEKS systems, however, are vulnerable to a significant security flaw known as the inside keyword guessing attack (KGA), where a malicious server exploits inherent weaknesses. To overcome this limitation, we introduce an enhanced PEKS model called dual-server PEKS (DS-PEKS). A key innovation in our framework is the introduction of a new type of smooth projective hash function (SPHF), termed linear and homomorphic SPHF (LH-SPHF). Leveraging LH-SPHF, we present a generic methodology for constructing a secure DS-PEKS scheme. To demonstrate the practicality of our approach, we provide an efficient implementation of the framework using a Decision Diffie-Hellman-based LH-SPHF and establish its robust security against KGA threats.

In the present era, ulcer management is challenging for the surgeon. Varicose ulcers are wounds that arise due to the malfunctioning of veins, typically in the lower limbs. In Ayurveda, the condition is clinically correlated with 'Sira janya dushta vrana' in Sushruta Samhita, which gives a detailed description of the various features of a Dushta Vrana and has Shashti Upakramas for treating such Vranas (ulcers). The overall incidence is higher for females than males. Compression therapy and antimicrobial therapy are strategies for managing chronic wounds. Surgery is performed in cases where there are no responses. This case report is the description of a 43-year-old male who is a businessman by profession and complains of non-healing ulcers in the left lower limbs around the ankle joint with a history of 10 years, associated with severe pain, burning sensation, and foul smell that have aggravated for 2 years. He took treatment for the same but didn't get any relief, so he approached for the treatment. By using Shashti Upakrama, we applied treatment for the patient, which was Jalaukavacharana, followed by Kasisadi Taila external application and internal medications such as Kaishora Guggulu, Gandhaka Rasayana, and Manjishtadi Kashaya for 2 months. The presented study combines Jalaukavacharana and Kasisadi Taila applications with internal medications, which was a good alternative therapy for managing non-healing varicose ulcers.
