 Abstract

Acute bronchitis is most frequently caused by a virus infection of the major airways and is typically self-limiting. Infection with bacteria is rare. In healthy people, viruses are the primary cause of about 95% of acute bronchitis cases. Allergens, irritants, and microorganisms can occasionally be the culprits. Irritants include breathing in smoke, contaminated air, and dust, among others. Acute diseases are rapid morbid processes of the abnormally deranged vital force which finishes its course more or less quickly, often in a moderate time. This study is done by selecting 30 cases from Sarada Krishna Homoeopathic Medical College and Hospital to determine the effectiveness of homoeopathy in acute bronchitis. The predominant triggering factor affecting the patients was bathing in sea water and the patients were feeling better when prescribed in 200th potency. The frequently used medicine was Pulsatilla nigricans. The cases were analysed using Bronchitis Severity Scale (BSS) and all the thirty cases showed improvement with a statistical significance of p value <0.05. Hence this study shows the effectiveness of homoeopathy in the treatment of acute bronchitis.

 Abstract

Acute illnesses are self-limiting and may resolve on their own, others have the potential to result in situations that could be fatal. Since acute diseases develop swiftly and require immediate medical attention due to their seriousness, they pose a significant challenge to the public and humankind as a whole. Minor wounds, viral or bacterial infections, and a condition in which a chronic sickness already present might all be included in the list of symptoms. Numerous aetiological factors influence the duration of acute diseases and are the cause of these illnesses. The majority of acute illnesses have underlying causes. In cases of acute illnesses, the details are most important. It is advised that the acute symptomatology serve as the basis for the acute remedy.

 Abstract

The monsoon season is a period of heavy rainfall in tropical regions, typically occurring between April and September. Especially in India monsoon has always been critical for its economy. The weather remains humid and it is ideal for germs to flourish and a perfect breeding time for mosquitoes. Deadly diseases like Malaria, Dengue, Chikungunya, Typhoid, and Influenza are common diseases during the rainy season and almost all these presents with a few common symptoms like fever, weakness, and body ache. While acute diseases can be severe as fatal and some could be self-limiting. Homoeopathic medicines have played vital role in management of such acute illness since 19th century. The aim of the study is to know about common affections developed after getting wet or drenched in rain during monsoon season and to know about common medicines used for monsoon maladies. A sample of 100 acute cases were recorded with the history of getting drenched /wet in rain which were selected from OPD and IPD of Sarada Krishna Homoeopathic Medical College and Hospital, Kulasekharam. The cases were analysed based on symptomatology using Static Global Assessment Scale. Out of 100 cases, common monsoon malady was acute bronchitis followed by acute rhinitis, most used medicine was rhus toxicodendron followed by Bryonia. Females were mostly affected than male. Commonly affected age group was younger group. All cases showed improvement after administration of homoeopathic medicine. This study has shown the effectiveness of Homoeopathic medicines in monsoon related maladies.

Linum usitatissimum L. (Linseed/Flaxseed), is one important crop which offers an exciting opportunity for quality improvement. Varieties of L. usitatissimum have been bred specifically for oil purpose or fibre purpose or for both (dual purpose). The oil yielded by plant is high in linolenic acid content. Induced mutagenesis techniques have successfully produced and commercialized quite a large number of new promising varieties in different crops worldwide, including cash crops. Induce mutagenesis pave a way to crop improvement by inferring variations in germplasm. The present study aimed to determine effects of lead nitrate [Pb(NO3)2)] on cyto-morphological and growth parameters of flaxseeds in M1 generation. Fresh and healthy seeds of Linum were treated with five different concentrations of lead nitrate [Pb(NO3)2)] i.e., 20, 40, 60, 80, 100 ppm. Seed germination (%), plant survival (%) and pollen fertility (%) were found to be decreased in treated population than control. Morphological parameters like plant height, number of branches, and different yield parameters showed significant dose dependent reduction at the seedling stage as well as at mature stages. Higher concentrations of the lead nitrate were found to be more genotoxic and mutagenic than the lower concentrations as lower doses did not significantly affects the cyto-morphological parameters.

 Abstract

Hahnemann, the father of homeopathy, motivated every homeopathic physicians to discover specific remedies. These remedies should be selected based on the totality of symptoms, which includes constitutional, miasmatic, and environmental factors (circumstances from within, from without and continually acting) that influences the individual. Research on specific remedies remains uncertain due to the lack of integration of these three factors. So there is a critical need to discover specific medicines by combining the symptoms from these three factors, utilizing advancements in diagnosis and investigation. Researchers in homeopathy can achieve this by integrating these aspects when selecting specific homeopathic remedies.

 Abstract

This article describes frameworks for creating security systems to combat cyber threats and criminals, with a particular emphasis on electronic signatures as a technique for improving cybersecurity in cloud-stored data. We forgo mathematical modelling of electronic signature generation, instead focussing on a theoretical description of the process. The study also simulates the hazards posed by a hacker targeting a power transmission grid utilising cyber-physical systems and a load redistribution attack method, while taking into account the hacker's decision-making under insufficient information. Our findings show that wrong admittance values can lead to fairly successful cyber-attacks, jeopardising grid security, whilst insufficient capacity values result in less impacting attacks. Additionally, we suggest a security architecture for global systems used by organisations to carry out cybersecurity tasks. This paper emphasises the importance of interdisciplinary approaches in cybersecurity, beyond standard computer science methodologies, in addressing the expanding issues of defending cyber environments across multiple disciplines.

 Abstract

This research is an exploration through the eyes of the wounded. Pain, like hunger, has no religion, country, or creed. This world is woven with numerous visible and invisible boundaries; some are drawn on maps and others on our minds. Among many woven tapestries, South Asia is one of those territories widely known for its rich culture and diversity. It has the longest history of civilisation but has also witnessed its adverse effects. The prolonged history of war, genocide, famine, and other factors impacted this area of the world vividly. Countries in this region have enjoyed a glorious past and have been burdened with some of the most sorrowful memories. Ultimately, the people who are most affected are those who are unable to grasp what is happening around them and why. Consequently, such experiences, whether consciously or unconsciously, shape them into completely different human beings. This article aims to study novels from the South Asian region that depict incidents from a child's perspective and their impact on personality and life, how these situations compel them to become an 'adult-child' or children who should behave like an adult demanding pre-maturity from them. Turning them into miniature adults by snatching their innocence and childhood is the gravest crime against humanity. Novels offer a platform for exploration and scope to analyse incidents from multiple aspects. Authors expressing themselves through this genre are offering fresh perspectives to restore faith in humanity. This research article is an exploration of such explorations done by the novelists who are penning the unsaid words.

 Abstract

Agricultural credit is considered as one of the most basic inputs for conducting all agricultural development programmes. In India there is an immense need for proper agricultural credit as Indian farmers are very poor. From the very beginning the prime source of agricultural credit in India was moneylenders. After independence the Government adopted the institutional credit approach through various agencies like co-operatives, commercial banks, regional rural banks etc. to provide adequate credit to farmers, at a cheaper rate of interest. Moreover, with growing modernisation of agriculture during post-green revolution period the requirement of agricultural credit has increased further in recent years. Agricultural lending and financing play a crucial role in India's agriculture sector, which employs over 50% of the country's workforce and contributes around 17-18% to the country's Gross Domestic Product (GDP). The availability of affordable credit is essential for farmers to invest in modern agricultural practices, purchase quality inputs, and increase productivity. In India, agricultural financing is provided by various institutions, including commercial banks, regional rural banks, cooperative banks, and microfinance institutions. Apart from traditional lending, agricultural financing in India also involves various other forms of credit support, such as crop loans, Kisan Credit Card (KCC) scheme, agricultural term loans, and agricultural insurance. These schemes aim to provide financial assistance to farmers for crop production, purchase of agricultural inputs, and capital investment in agriculture. This paper focuses on understanding the problems and prospects of agricultural credits to farmers of Indian.

 Abstract

Acute sporadic diseases are those which are caused by meteoric and telluric influences or injurious agents in some people here and there when the individual is susceptible to receive the disease phenomena. These conditions can significantly impact the health and well-being of paediatric patients, often leading to medical consultations and interventions. Children are most prone to contract acute illnesses since the susceptibility is high during their early stages of life. In children, the immune system still remains in the developing stage and hence the active defense mechanisms is not fully established. Homoeopathy is the only system that considers the patient's susceptibility in selecting the appropriate remedy and potency in both acute as well as chronic diseases. This observational study aims to investigate the occurrence of acute sporadic diseases among paediatric patients treated with homoeopathy in Kanyakumari district. A sample of 30 children under 18 years, diagnosed with acute sporadic diseases, were analyzed. The study highlights that these diseases were more prevalent among early adolescents, predominantly males, especially in the mountainous region of Kulasekharam. The findings also reveal that environmental factors contributing to the acute sporadic diseases in children were exposure to cold air or rain. Acute rhinitis and bronchitis were the common ailment prevalent among the children of Kanykumari disrtrict as acute sporadic diseases. The homoeopathic remedies Rhus tox and Bryonia were frequently used in such cases, and 200 CH potency being the most common which was selected after considering the susceptibility criteria. This research contributes to identifying and understanding the patterns of acute sporadic diseases in children of Kanyakumari district through homoeopathic approach.

 Abstract

Children embody innocence, trust, and hope. Their childhood should be filled with joy and love, with their lives maturing gradually as they gain new experiences. Each child is a unique individual, with a future shaped by the influences they encounter during their early years. The research design adopted for this study was pre experimental one group pre test-post test research design and research approach adopted for this was to qualitative approach. The sample was 100 primary school teachers. Non probability purposive sampling technique was used. The mean of post-test knowledge scores was 26.6, which is significantly higher than mean of pre-test knowledge scores of 12.4. Standard deviation of post-test score and pre-test score is 9.4 and 13.3 respectively. The computed paired "t" value (18.67,df=99 at the level of p=0.05) is greater than table value (1.66) which represents significant gain in knowledge. Hence the hypothesis RH1is accepted. It is evident from the results that RH2:There will be significant association between the pre test knowledge score and selected demographic variables at the level of p<= 0.05. is accepted as there is significant association between pretest knowledge score and selected demographic variables like educational qualification, years of experience, child psychology in syllabus and attended in-service education.

 Abstract

Literature offers a mixture of all the fields we study from school to university. Literature is linked to each subject. Tribal literature is part of the literature that talks only about tribes. They were the main focus. Tribal literature deals with the folklore, stories, songs, oral traditions and poetry of the tribal community, which are cultural. It is also known as "Adivasi" literature. India also has a large number of tribes and cultures, in the east or in the west, some of which are still unknown to most people. The forest is their home for generations. The tribe lived in an isolated area of the forest and lived as a community. They do not know how to learn, they do not understand black symbols in books, and they do not understand the meaning of education and school. Tribal literature stories or poems do not have much written material and are not written anywhere. All the material that has so far existed was based on oral form. This is possible by emerging writers who belong to this field. The authors share their thoughts and value to society. They are not different from each other. The forest is their mother, they worship the forest as God. Tribal writers can communicate with their own people, but others cannot. The other writers receive only the outer shell of the tribe's life. There are some gaps in the writings of tribal and non-tribal writers. This gap can only be filled by giving opportunities to the tribe. Women writers are the growing face of today's society. They can share their thoughts because they are well-connected to society. Their motherhood and participation in writing literature can describe the society as how it was for women to see society.

 Abstract

: Back pain is one of the most common causes for patients to seek emergency care. It has a broad range of potential etiologies for both adult and pediatric populations. The etiologies differ depending on the patient population, but most commonly, it is mechanical or non-specific. Back pain causes significant rates of disability and can be a problem that persists from childhood into adulthood. It is essential to be able to evaluate patients of all ages and recognize the unique differences in the presentation in these different populations. This study was done by selecting 30 female cases of back pain from Sarada Krishna Homoeopathic Medical College and Hospital .The most common age group affected were 60-70 years. The predominant aggravating factors were physical exertion and prolonged sitting and ameliorating factor was lying down. The patients felt better when prescribed in 200th potency. The frequently used medicine was Bryonia alba. The cases were analysed using Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) (version 1.0) questionnaire and all the thirty cases showed improvement with a statistical significance of p value < 0.05. Hence this study shows the effectiveness of homoeopathy in the treatment of back pain.

 Abstract

Drenching in rain is often associated with the onset of acute symptoms, most commonly a respiratory disease complex, such as bronchitis, rhinitis, sinusitis. In fact, predisposition to respiratory infections through exposure to cold and wet conditions stems from the weakening of the body's immune defense. The purpose of this observational study is to assess the therapeutic potential of Rhus Toxicodendron in the treatment of acute symptoms post drenching in rain. Thirty patients from the OPD, IPD, and rural health centers of Sarada Krishna Homoeopathic Medical College, complaining of acute symptoms after exposure to rain were selected. The results were assessed in terms of pre-treatment and post-treatment changes in the SPGA score with Rhus Toxicodendron as the medicine prescribed. According to the research outcomes, a strong association between rain exposure and the exacerbation of respiratory diseases is established, with acute bronchitis being the most common diagnosis. Symptom prevalence in majority of cases was observed in patients of 1-15 and 46-60 years of age. The most common prescription potency being 200c; mostly 1-2 were the used doses. Statistical analysis with a paired t-test showed a highly significant reduction in symptom severity after the treatment. Thus, Rhus Toxicodendron proved to be an effective treatment for acute symptoms post drenching in rain. Further studies in bigger sample sizes with controlled trials may be recommended to strengthen these results and elucidate the biological mechanism involved.

 Abstract

Almost one-fourth of India's population comprises of children in the age group of 0-14 years.1Common pediatric illness are sore throat, skin infections, gastroenteritis, common cold, bronchitis, otalgia etc.,2Because of its safety and apparent effectiveness in comparison with other medical treatments of its day, homeopathic practice quickly spread to the rest of Europe, the United States, Central and South America, and India. This is a retrospective study conducted on 100 pediatric patients who visited the Outpatient Department of Sarada Krishna Homoeopathic Medical College and Hospital with acute illnesses. The patients included for the study were between the age group of 1 to 18years, both sexes. Acute respiratory illness like acute bronchitis and acute rhinitis peaked among the others diseases. Male preponderance and first decade of life affected more when compared to the second decade. Most common cause of acute disease was exposure to cold weather. Predominantly used remedies were Arsenicum album, Rhus toxicodendron, Pulatilla nigricanss, Bryonia alba, Tuberculinum. This study reveals that an ample amount of pediatric wards visit the homeopathic OPD's for acute ailments bearing various causes. Common acute diseases condition involves the respiratory system comprising more that 80 cases out of 100 with male preponderance and first decade of life. Ninety two cases belonged to the homoeopathic classification of acute individual disease.
