 Abstract

A market serves as a meeting point where two parties come together to facilitate the exchange of goods and services. These parties, known as buyers and sellers, can gather either in a physical location or on online platforms such as websites or apps. Marketing plays a crucial role in accelerating the buying and selling process within the market. Its primary objective is to ensure that goods and services are made available to customers according to their needs and desires. Traditional marketing methods have been in use for a considerable period of time. However, with the advancement of information technologies and the widespread availability of high-speed internet, marketing is transitioning from conventional approaches to non-conventional methods. Organizations that embrace these new marketing technologies can ef ectively communicate with their customers while delivering goods and services to them. The present paper will do comparative study between Traditional and Digital Marketing. This study will also focus on the factors which impact the buying behaviour of customers towards traditional and digital marketing.

 Abstract

In the past two years India has faced a lot of trouble due to sudden spread of pandemic due to which the immense growth in the field of Education sector was adversely affected. We always say that gaining as well as providing education is never ending process, it can never be congested. Keeping this thing in mind the use of modern LMS (Learning-Management-System) came into force. The pandemic made us realize that not only the old traditional methods (face-to-face teacher student interaction), but also the modern LMS method is a necessity in the new India. Currently each and every sector is joining forces with Information and Communication Technology (ICT). ICT plays a very important role when it comes to education. When we talk about higher education, it has faced a lot of challenges, and then ICT came to the rescue. It helped in overcoming the barriers of higher education. While writing this research paper there were several challenges found such as the students as well as teachers facing difficulty in adapting the new system, students lack of concentration while ongoing classes, miniscule (very less) interaction, indiscipline behavior and many more which has been discussed in the research paper. Several tools were found which provided such platform where educators and students can communicate while sitting at their particular homes such as Zoom, Google meet, Google classroom, You tube, Teach mint, NLP (Next-learning-platform) applications, etc. With the help of these tools students were able to reach to the best educators not only in India but across the whole world. Now, these tools are also helping teachers to reach the last student in the last mile. The Government of India has always been very active when it comes to providing education to children as well as women who don't have enough money to afford the cost of education. Seeing the difficulty faced by them, also to ensure the higher education of students government of India has launched various schemes such as AICTE Doctoral Fellowship (ADF),Pragati scholarship, Manodarpan scheme (one of the schemes under Atma-nirbhar Bharat Abhiyan) etc. Few schemes are discussed briefly in the concerned paper. LMS has not only been helpful in providing education platforms for students but has also encouraged teachers, professors to keep in pace with updated technology.

 Abstract

The present research work discusses a case study of a 42-year-old housewife who complained of complete hair loss from all the parts of her body. The patient had undergone allopathic treatment and Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy for about five years but with no positive outcome. The patient was diagnosed with Ruhya in Ayurved, a rare and challenging disease that can have a profound effect on physical and emotional well-being. The treatment plan included various Ayurvedic procedures such as Nasya karma, Shirolepa, Shiro Abhyanga, Rasayana, and Dosha Pachana. After the 13th sitting of Marsha Nasya, the patient experienced hair growth in the lid margin, eyebrow region, inside the nose, and the occipital part of the head. The patient had 11 follow-ups, and during the last follow-up, the patient had a full head of hair. The discussion highlights the importance of using Ayurvedic procedures for treating hair loss caused by chronic illness, premature aging or nutritional deficiency.

 Abstract

Your body releases three hormones that make you feel good when you smile. They include dopamine, endorphins and serotonin. These signal to your body that you're happy, and in turn, you feel happier. Laugh makes a sound and is open-mouth gesture with greater degree of emotion. Smile is just the moment of lips (lips intact) in an arc shape with no sound. Laugh and Smile are two words in the English language that are often confused due to the appearing similarity in their meanings. Strictly speaking there is some difference between the two words in terms of their meanings. The word 'laugh' is used as a verb and it is used in the sense of 'opening your mouth and expressing your appreciation of comic sentiment in a loud manner' as in the sentences.

 Abstract

The study's goal was to investigate the link between mother-daughter relationships and the daughters' self-esteem. The study's data was gathered from 201 female volunteers from various Indian states. Purposive sampling was used to gather the sample. The current study's age range was 18-25 years. The mother-adult daughter questionnaire (MAD by Rastogi 1995) was used to examine present mother-daughter relationships, and the Rosenberg self-esteem scale (Rosenberg,1965) was utilised to measure global self-esteem. The current inquiry is based on a cross-sectional and co-relational research design. The research is an empirical study that is quantitative in character. The study's goal was to determine the relationship between self-esteem and mother-daughter relationships (connectedness, interdependence, and trust in hierarchy), as well as how effectively subdimensions of mother-daughter relationships predict self-esteem in young female adults. Conclusion stated Hypothesis 1, there is a considerable association between connectivity and self-esteem. The results demonstrated a substantial positive association between the two factors. However, the two hypotheses, H2 and H3, which indicated that there may be a substantial association between the mother-daughter relationship subdimensions (interdependence and trust in hierarchy) and self-esteem, were found to be inconsequential. H4, which indicated that a mother-daughter connection can have a major influence on self-esteem, was shown to be inconsequential. . We investigated several facets of how the mother-daughter connection affects daughters' self-esteem and whether it affects or does not influence them via thorough inquiry and analysis. We have gained a better understanding of its intricacies and repercussions.

 Abstract

The worldwide state of health is continuing to be severely impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic. Covid-19 has affected the human race in all aspects of life whether it be mentally, physically, socially, or economically. Diagnosing Covid-19 is a critical task, especially when there is a shortage of resources. Moreover, the present tests and techniques lack solutions to problems such as ease of accessibility, the requirement of rapid response, the cost of testing, the accuracy of results, etc. The most modern Machine Learning (ML) algorithms could be employed to develop a solution that allows for rapid testing and more accurate findings. The model prepared will be a more efficient imaging method to diagnose lungs related problems. Recognizing conceivable corona virus diseases using X-ray of chest will potentially be helpful to isolate patients lies in danger zone. X-ray machines are currently available in most healthcare systems also there is no transportation time needed for the models by a similar token. The timely detection of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome CoV-2 (SARS CoV-2), which is the main reason for Wuhan virus, utilizing chest X-ray pictures will prove to be life-saving for both patients and specialists [1]. In the present work, our aim to develop a system that detect of Covid-19 using X-ray images of the chest with the help of the Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) based ML technique. On performing comparative analysis with other models we found CNN to be the appropriate one for our work.

 Abstract

The primary objective of developing the Polyherbal Hand Wash Gel is to promote hand hygiene. Herbal medicines play a crucial role in global healthcare, being widely recognized as effective remedies for prevention and various health conditions. Consequently, Herbal Medication is also referred to as Botanical treatment or Phyto-medicine. Although several hand wash products are available in the market, some of them may have adverse effects such as itching, dermatitis, and irritation. To mitigate these issues, an attempt has been made to formulate a polyherbal hand wash using Kambarmodi extract (known for its antimicrobial activity) and Tulsi (known for its purifying properties) against disease-causing bacteria, while also ensuring skin protection. Alongside Kambarmodi and Tulsi, other herbal drugs or herbs that play an important role have been included in the formulation. The evaluation of the herbal hand wash encompassed parameters such as color, fragrance, grittiness, pH, viscosity, spreadability, foam height, foam retention, skin irritation test, cleaning action, dirt dispersion test, and antimicrobial activity. The efficacy of the polyherbal hand wash was compared with commercially available hand wash products, and the results fell within acceptable limits with minimal or no side effects. The present study aimed to formulate a Polyherbal Hand Wash Gel containing herbal extracts, not only for hand cleansing but also for the prevention of bacterial growth. Its composition was designed to be gentle on the skin, minimizing the risk of irritation. Therefore, it can be concluded that Polyherbal Hand Wash Gel is superior to plain soaps and existing synthetic hand wash products in terms of its ingredients and effectiveness on our hands' skin, while also being suitable for all skin types

 Abstract

Abstract Theoretically, reconstruction of a national identity is one of the leading tasks of a newly established postcolonial regime. Such a reconstruction indicates a process of nation building targeted at consolidating a sense of togetherness about common history, memories, symbols and cultures, and the belief in the importance of practices beneficial to governance. It aims at cultivating political allegiance to the state and feelings of identification with the territory and fellow citizens. Through this process, a new regime secures the willing respect and obedience of its citizens, as well as its legitimacy. Contrary to common wisdom, the process of identity making is not a clear process of differentiating 'the other' from 'the self' and repressing 'the other' but is instead a process of incorporating the identities of 'the other. The case of Macau is unique in showing that the making of a national identity may not be the prime goal of a new regime and that the regime may not be antagonistic to the features of 'the other' colonial attributes and local identities that it has inherited. Rather the new government has cultivated a hybrid identity, including local, national and international identities, believing that these can advance not only nation building but also the economic goals beneficial to governance. Portugal and Portuguese identity has always been very difficult to define. Being the origin of an empire whose evaluation is still polemic, the Portuguese have been seen in very different ways by their European contemporaries and as well as their colonial 'subjects'. The present study is an attempt to understand aspects of Portuguese legacy and the dimensions of 'interculturality' in Macao.

 Abstract

The objective for the selection of the topic is to study theINFP personality type and its relationship with seasonal affective symptoms. Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) is a type of depression that affects individuals on a seasonal basis, typically during the fall and winter months. This disorder is characterized by symptoms such as low mood, lethargy, changes in appetite and sleep patterns, and loss of interest in activities. Research has suggested that personality traits may play a role in the development and severity of SAD symptoms. The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between ENFP personality type and SAD symptoms. The findings of this study will have both theoretical and practical implications. Theoretical implications include contributing to our understanding of the underlying mechanisms of SAD and the role of personality traits in the development and severity of SAD symptoms. Practical implications include the development of targeted interventions to help individuals manage their SAD symptoms more effectively based on their personality traits. Additionally, this research may help to identify high-risk individuals and inform preventative strategies for reducing the incidence of SAD. Overall, this study aims to contribute to the growing body of literature on the relationship between INFP personality type and SAD symptoms. By shedding light on this relationship, we hope to improve diagnosis and treatment of SAD and ultimately improve the lives of individuals affected by this disorder. Responses were collected face to face. Research sample was of 120 participants divided into three groups. The Myers-Briggs Preference Questionnaire (Personality Test) and Personal Inventory for Depression and SAD was administered on the participants.

Abstract Libraries provide services for everyone, despite their social or economic background, so that the users have a non-discriminatory nature while providing services in the library. Social enclosure through libraries for society is a new move that is expected to be able to promote community social-economic development and widen people's insights, especially in rural people that are far from access to information. Every library offers its patrons the basic services they need, but libraries that serve tiny, rural populations have the opportunity to do more than just give its users access to information; they can also help those communities grow. The rural library is revitalised with original and creative programmes in which anyone can take part. Libraries, as institutions that offer information services, also serve as centres for promoting literacy, which is intended to help improve social and economic conditions and reduce overall poverty by encouraging creative and innovative ideas.

 Abstract

Statistical methods for survival data analysis have continued to flourish in the last two decades. Applications of the methods have broadened from their historical use in cancer and reliability research used in the fields of business, criminology, epidemiology, and social and behavioral sciences. Survival analysis consists of studies of the survival time of a subject (days, weeks, months, or years), which is the time that elapses between the baseline and the moment an adverse event occurs, or the subject drops out of the trial. A retrospective study of 468 breast cancer patterns over a period of one year, i.e., from December, 2021 to November 2022, was collected from the medical records at the Jakka Sujathamma Cancer Detection Centre, Nellore, Andhra Pradesh, India. The log-rank test revealed a statistically significant difference in patient survival times, and it can be deduced that tumor size, family history, advanced stage, and age all have an impact on the disease. The three main risk factors for breast cancer death are stage, grade, and tumor size. Age is one of the most significant risk factors in the Cox PH model analysis; as age rises, so does the likelihood of developing breast cancer.

 Abstract

The proliferation of cloud computing and web-based technologies have made it possible for universities to expand their academic networks reaching a wider range of students. In an effort to expand offered services while reducing costs, universities began exploring the use of distributed software platforms and middleware infrastructures to make laboratories accessible over the Internet. Through this framework, which we call Lab-as-a-Service (LaaS), students can remotely execute labs designed by instructors. LaaS incorporates a middleware approach in which it can be used universally across a wide range of experimentation types. Seamless experience of software development and learning can be made easy. The LaaS Framework enables students to engage more actively in courses that need hands-on components. Throughout this paper, we have demonstrated at a small scale how the LaaS framework can be used to transform a traditional learning experience to a remote learning experience that can complement existing MOOCs. This helps to promote courses that require lab facilities to also be incorporated to the online learning environment. For future work, we plan to extend the LaaS framework to take into consideration scalability and complexity of more sophisticated lab equipment that are required for courses in engineering, science, among others.

 Abstract

Financial education programs play a crucial role in promoting financial literacy and empowering individuals to make informed financial decisions. This abstract examines the initiatives undertaken in various countries, including India, the United States, Australia, Singapore, Japan, South Korea, Brazil, the United Kingdom, New Zealand, and Germany, to improve financial literacy. In India, the National Center for Financial Education (NCFE) and Margadarshak, among other initiatives, focus on developing educational material, conducting training programs, and raising awareness about financial matters. The United States emphasizes financial education in schools through organizations like the Jumpstart Coalition and provides consumer resources through the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) and the National Endowment for Financial Education (NEFE). Australia's ASIC MoneySmart program offers a wide range of resources, while Singapore's MoneySENSE and the Institute for Financial Literacy (IFL) collaborate to provide financial education through workshops and training. Japan's "Let's Learn Finance!" campaign focuses on educating different age groups, and South Korea integrates financial education into the school curriculum through the Financial Education Curriculum Development Project. In Brazil, the Central Bank launched the National Financial Education Strategy (ENEF) to promote financial literacy. The United Kingdom incorporates personal finance education into the curriculum, and the Commission for Financial Capability (CFFC) in New Zealand provides resources and tools through initiatives like Sorted. Germany's financial education initiatives, led by organizations like the German Savings Banks Association (DSGV) and the Federal Ministry of Finance, include campaigns and workshops. These programs aim to equip individuals with knowledge and skills related to budgeting, saving, investing, and understanding financial products and services. By improving financial literacy, these initiatives strive to enhance financial inclusion, empower individuals, and promote overall financial well-being. While the approaches and methodologies vary, financial education programs across these countries share the common objective of equipping individuals with the necessary skills to navigate the complexities of personal finance and make informed financial decisions. Continued collaboration and evaluation are vital to ensuring the success and impact of these programs in fostering economic stability and growth

When it comes to talking plants and trees, history is replete with umpteen number of anecdotes and allegories. If Muhammad had a detailed conversation with the weeping palm tree, Alexander the great often conversed with a happy talking tree. In the Geek culture, Druids possessed the power to speak to the trees for oracles. Through this essay, I want to dwell on the prompt that plants really talk, and how this claim can be substantiated with reference to research and evidence.
