 Abstract

The sustained release system includes any drug delivery system that achieves slow and extended release of drug over an extended period of time. The present study was carried out to develop and evaluate the matrix tablets of Metformin HCl 500 mg strength containing cellulose derivatives as release modifying polymer. The matrix tablets of 500 mg strength were prepared by direct compression. The data generated from in-vitro studies showed, the drug release from matrices containing HPMCK100M was based on diffusion and erosion. Therefore, HPMCK100M can be used to modify release rate of Metformin HCl in matrix tablets. The results of in-vitro drug release studies in simulated GI fluids was showed that matrix tablets containing HPMC K100M in (F-5) batch in direct compression are able to control the release of water-soluble Metformin HCl. Therefore it was concluded that HPMCK100M is suitable for the formulating matrix system of Metformin HCl. Metformin HCL was stable in the designed matrices.

 Abstract

Changing lifestyles invariably cause metabolic changes that influence the functioning of eye, resulting in diseased state. Along with lifestyle changes food habits, environmental pollution, industrial and occupational hazards as well as the increased use of systemic and topical medicines made the prevalence of eye diseases very common. Dry eye disease is a common yet frequently un-recognized clinical condition in which the etiology and management challenge clinicians and researchers alike. Epidemiological studies of Dry eye syndrome in the United States and other countries suggest wide differences in prevalence. As such definitions of Dry eye syndrome have differed from study to study, making results incomparable. Tear substitutes and tear stimulants are the main stay of medical management. But these tear lubricants are failed to reproduce the tears, because the natural tear are the complex mixture of lipids, mucin and water. Acharyas has shared very comprehensive idea of dry eye and the treatment strategy for it. Description as per Susrutha Samhita points towards the early phase of the disease (dryness), whereas the Vagbhata's view reflects the advanced phase of the disease with predominance of paka (inflammation). Treatment is designed to relieve the dosha vitiation leading to Dry eye, there by treating the disease at its root. Absence of preservatives and cost effectiveness is an added advantage of Ayurvedic treatment of Dry eye. Yastimadu sarkara sidha Ksheerapaka is mentioned for all the Netrarogas in the form of Seka. Jeevanthyadi ghruta is mentioned in the context of Sushkakshipaka for internal administration. So this study is aimed to prove the effectiveness of these unique drugs in the management of dry eye.

 Abstract

Peptic ulcer disease (PUD) is one of the commonest diseases seen throughout the world. There are various risk factors for the development of peptic ulcer disease, but the most important ones are Helicobacter pylori infection and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Patients generally present with dyspepsia or peptic ulcer bleeding. Acid suppressant therapy, H. pylori eradication, and avoidance of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are the cornerstones of treatment of peptic ulcer disease. Peptic ulcer bleeding could be life-threatening. It is managed by appropriate supportive care, intravenous proton pump inhibitor therapy, and endoscopic hemostasis. Transarterial embolization (TAE) and surgery are rarely required if endoscopic therapy fails.

 Abstract

ABSTRACT In postcolonial studies the term subaltern identifies and describes the man, the women or the member of a specific social group, who is socially politically and geographically outside of the hegemonic power structure. The idea of subaltern studies originated in England towards the end of 1970. And Ranajit Guha, a renowned historian, with his contributions perfected this school of thought. As a result of which, today we see a very different and developed version of subaltern studies in India. The paper titled, Revisiting the Subaltern Ethos of V.A Shrikumar's Odiyan, attempts to explore the textual subconscious of the movie Odiyan. A subaltern reading of the movie brings to light a man's attempt to reclaim his legitimate space in a caste ridden society when he realises that his true identity is not the one of slavishness. In this movie our protagonist Manikyan is ostracised by the villagers of Thenkurissi due to the stigma associated with his clan and with its legendary practice of Odividhya. The movie explores at length the diverse possibilities of the use of black-white dichotomy. The protagonist of the movie, Odiyan Manikyan, who is believed to be the incarnation of evil by the villagers, feared by all but who is also good at heart, has a light skin tone when compared to the antagonist Ravunni Nair. Ravunni Nair the representative of the upper class, better known to the world as Karimban Nair is ridiculed by the society for his dark skin tone. And the colour of his skin is believed to be representing the malice he bears inside. This means, it is possible to argue that the movie emphasises the idea that, white is good and black is bad further undermining Derrida's rejection of binary opposition. In a way the movie seems to be claiming that, the subaltern in his light skin is able to fight the evil of casteism prevailing in the society which is represented by the evil practices of a dark skinned man. This can be seen as a subversion of the casteist notion of skin tones.

 Abstract

In the context of competency based training (CBT) for sustainable development (SD), there is extensive literature on what should be taught and learned in terms of knowledge, skills and values. What stands out in most of this literature is a prominent attention to values. The underlying idea is that value education is needed to prepare students for a role as 'agents of change', able and willing to transform our current society into a more sustainable one. What is strikingly absent from these approaches to SD is the notion that there may be a valid diversity in perspectives on sustainable development, whereas this diversity is in fact a key feature of sustainable development in a pluralistic society. In the transition towards a sustainable (or at least more sustainable) society, the ability to deal with this diversity of perspectives will thus be crucial. We therefore argue that the key competence for academic professionals to successfully contribute to sustainable development will be their ability to think, communicate, learn and collaborate across the boundaries that divide these perspectives. We refer to the ability to cross such boundaries as 'transboundary competence'. This chapter applies the principles of competence based learning to identify the characteristics of learning environments in which this competence can be developed.

 Abstract

Antenatal care (ANC) is widely recognized as an accessible and cost-effective method to improve maternal and perinatal health outcomes. It offers the opportunity to connect women to the health system, and improve maternal and child health outcomes through prevention, health promotion and treatment during pregnancy. ANC can increase access to and chances of using a skilled attendant at birth around labor and delivery - which is when most maternal and newborn deaths occur - through a birth and emergency preparedness plan. However the present study has conducted to determine the socio-economic & demographic factors of the respondents, to identify the indicators that affect the ANC care, to differentiate ages of pregnant women and to evaluate the outcome about pregnant women care among the respondents within the period of time. The study was conducted at Pabna city in Bangladesh. It was a Descriptive type of Cross-Sectional Study. The study place was selected Government-250 bedded general hospital at pabna city in Bangladesh. Purposive sampling method will be used for the study. Total 200 respondents were selected for the Study. Data were collected from primary and secondary sources. Primary data were collected from the respondents of the study area. Secondary data were collected from books, research reports, journals, annual reports, Website of Ministry of Health and family planning internet etc. A pre-designed semi-structured questionnaire was used for data collection. Collected data were analyzed by computer program Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS). From the result it was found that the women's were lack of decision-making ability about their health and every day affairs, unfavourable attitudes towards antenatal care by family members', insufficient funds for prenatal care, heavy family workload, no permission to go to hospital without a guardian, and inconvenient transportation. Financial constraint was the main reason for not seeking antenatal care from qualified providers during pregnancy. In some cases the respondents did not take antenatal care due to distance of hospital is far from their home. Lack of knowledge is also one of the most important cause of not seeking antenatal care. Some husband did not want to take their wife to the Doctor for check medical checkup and this is one of the most important reason for not seeking antenatal care. Due to low uptake of antennal care the pregnant mothers face delayed, got still birth death, they got perineal tear got delayed and perineal tear due to low uptake of antenatal care. People should be aware about antenatal care. Government, print and electronic media can play vital role in creating awareness about antenatal care among mass people. Government should establish more hospitals, more community clinic, more Ma o Shishu Kendro so that people can reach those medical centers to receive antenatal care. Government should appoint more employees for providing antenatal care and disseminating antenatal care related knowledge among mass people. Private hospitals and private clinics providing antenatal care should be liberal to the poor people in our society. Many poor people cannot receive antenatal care due to lack of money. Private hospitals and private clinics owners should reduce different cost of services related to antenatal care.
