Air pollutants have been investigated to be associated with many health issues. Recently, epidemiological studies have been suggested the association between air pollution exposure and risk of frailty with inconsistent findings. This meta-analysis and review was to summarize and evaluate the effects of exposure to various air pollutants on risk of frailty. PubMed, Embase, Scopus and Web of Science were systematically searched for relevant studies published before May 15, 2024. Studies that explored the potential relationship between exposure to air pollutants (PM2.5, PM10, O3, NOx, solid fuel, second hand tobacco) and risk of frailty were included. The quality of cross-sectional and cohort studies was evaluated using an eight-item assessment instrument for epidemiological studies and Newcastle-Ottawa Scale, respectively. A total of 9,717 papers were retrieved, of which 20 met the inclusion criteria. Meta-analysis indicated that PM2.5 exposure was significantly associated with frailty assessed by the frailty index [OR (90% CI): 1.24 (1,11-1.38) per 10 ?g/m3 increment]. Moreover, solid fuel exposures were significantly associated with an increased risk of frailty assessed by the frailty phenotype [OR (90% CI): 1.91 (1.09-3.34)] or the frailty index [OR (90% CI): 1.25 (1.11-1.41)]. Exposure to PM2.5 and solid fuel increases the risk of frailty. Environmental protection policies and public health measures should be developed to reduce PM2.5 concentrations. Effective measures, such as improving stoves and using clean fuels, should be taken to reduce indoor air pollution levels.

Vijayawada, located in Andhra Pradesh, India, faces recurrent flooding during the monsoon season, which severely disrupts both human life and local wildlife habitats. This study explores the cascading ecological consequences of these floods, particularly focusing on snake populations that are vital for maintaining biodiversity. Flood-related habitat destruction not only forces snakes into urban areas, leading to increased human-snake conflicts and injuries but also causes a surge in rodent populations due to disrupted predator-prey dynamics. These changes create significant public health risks, including potential disease outbreaks linked to heightened encounters between humans and snakes, as well as increased rodent-borne illnesses. The study synthesizes relevant literature to highlight the urgent need for effective mitigation strategies, including habitat restoration, enhanced community education, infrastructure improvements, and health system strengthening against the backdrop of flooding. Recommendations propose multifaceted solutions that incorporate community participation and effective wildlife management to ensure environmental sustainability and public health safety. The findings underscore the interconnectedness of ecological and public health issues in flood-prone areas, necessitating a comprehensive approach to tackle the long-term challenges posed by flooding in Vijayawada and similar regions.

Organic farming is a production system, which substantially reduces the use of synthetically compounded fertilizers, pesticides, growth regulators and livestock feed additives. Organic farming is a holistic agricultural system that enhances soil quality. Jeevamrutham is a traditional organic fertilizer and soil conditioner derived from natural ingredients such as cow dung, cow urine, jaggery, gram flour, and water. It's a concoction rich in beneficial microorganisms, nutrients, and organic matter, widely used in organic farming to enhance soil fertility, promote plant growth and improve crop yield. Hibiscus sabdariffa, annual herbaceous shrub belongs to the family malvaceae, commonly known as Roselle. It is widely used as leafy vegetable having rich nutrients besides therapeutic characteristics included antihypertensive, anti-hyperlipidemic, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, diuretic, uricosuric, and anemia-treating effects. The study investigates that application of jeevamrutham on Hibiscus sabdariffa enhanced the physicochemical properties of the soil such as pH, EC, N, P, K and organic carbon content. The quantity of Photosynthetic Pigments, Carbohydrates and Proteins are also increased in addition to an increase in biomass, shoot length, root length, number of branches and leaves. This finding suggests that Jeevamrutham can be efficiently used as organic fertilizer to improve growth, development and yield of Hibiscus sabdariffa.

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the protective role of vitamin C on Cypermethrin induced reproductive toxicity in male rats. Healthy 40 male rats were randomly divided into 5 groups with 8 animals each. Group I served as control and administered with saline and group II and III were administered with Cypermethrin at a dose of 50mg and 100mg/kg BW respectively. Group IV administered with vitamin C alone at a dose of 60mg/kg BW orally and group V administered with both Cypermethrin(100mg/kg BW) and vitamin C(60mg/kg BW)for 60 days. After the treatment rats were sacrificed and isolated the reproductive organs immediately for biochemical analysis. The body weights of rats did not show any significant change in all groups. Whereas the weights of reproductive organs were significantly decreased in Cypermethrin administered groups. Treatment with Cypermethrin significantly decreased epididymal sperm count, viable sperms and motile sperms with a significant reduction in the testicular steroidogenic enzymes (3?-HSD and 17 ? HSD) activities. Histoarchitechture of testis of rats administered with cypermethrin showed degenerative changes in seminiferous tubules with reduced size, increased interstitial spaces, and inhibited spermatogenesis. Where as co-administration of Vitamin C with Cypermethrin showed a significant improvement in the weights of reproductive organs, sperm count, sperm viability and motility. The co-treatment of vitamin C also significantly increased the activity levels of steroidogenic enzymes and it restored the structural integrity of testicular architecture in Cypermethrin intoxicated rats. The present study indicating the protective role of vitamin C against cypermethrin induced reproductive toxicity in male rats.

A microbial biosensor combines a physical transducer and one or more microorganisms to produce a quantifiable signal that is proportionate to the quantity of analyses. Recently, a wide range of microbial biosensors for use in food, medicine, and the environment have been developed Microbial biosensors have numerous advantages in ecotoxicity testing. Microorganisms are generally cheaper to culture than higher organisms, and they can be produced in large batches, subjected to stringent quality control procedures, and freeze dried for storage. Cyano-bacterial biosensors for detecting herbicides represent an innovative application of biotechnology. These biosensors use cyanobacteria (blue-green algae) to sense the presence of herbicides, leveraging their natural biological processes to produce measurable signals. Various biological constituents, including enzymes, cells, and organelles, as well as luminous cyanobacterial biosensors that are taken into consideration in this review, have been immobilized on suitable transducer surfaces in biosensors designed for herbicide detection.

The changes in the environment in the 21st century are questioning the survival of the human species. Now the Era of Global Warming has ended and the Era of Global Boiling has begun. This era started from 2023 and since then the temperatures have been recorded high worldwide. As a result of the changes in the environment, high rainfall i.e. cloudbursts, artificial rainfalls through cloud seeding methods in rainless areas, tsunamis, melting of glaciers, sudden floods and super cyclones are occurring. In the past, the 2015 Paris climate agreement required every country to bring global warming to net zero carbon emissions. Accordingly, a specific deadline has been established to reduce carbon emissions. Non-fossil fuel sources for this. Due to the increase in carbon emissions, we are seeing frequent forest fires, powerful typhoons, sky-high floods, tornadoes, droughts and tsunamis in the world. Mountain and Arctic,Antarktika ecosystems and species are particularly sensitive to climate change. Warming of ocean waters due to global warming is likely to affect some species in Extinction. Especially in regions like the Arctic, Antarctica and Greenland, the warming of the climate will not only lead to the melting of ice caps and rise in sea levels, but also to food shortages and loss of habitat for some species. If these levels of pollution continue to increase, the Amazon forests will also disappear. Ice Mountains melt and sea levels rise by a few meters. Due to this many countries will disappear and coastal areas will submerge. It causes food shortage. Habitat problems arise. Some species become extinct. As the ice mountains melt, new viruses emerge. Then human survival becomes questionable. Statistics show that 84 thousand people die in India every year due to high temperatures. Due to the lock downs during the corona time, the balance in the environment was established and the percentage of carbon emissions dropped significantly, we were able to get the environment necessary for the survival of humans and animals. Changes in climate are greatly affecting biodiversity worldwide. Changes in the current climate system in India are impacting various ecosystems, affecting key sectors such as natural ecosystems including water resources, agriculture, forestry, health and industrial sectors.

Medical waste, a by-product of healthcare activities, has emerged as a significant concern in recent years due to its potential impact on both human health and the environment. Medical waste encompasses a wide range of materials often leading to inadequate disposal methods that pose serious risks to public health and ecological balance and global health crises. One of the primary concerns associated with medical waste is its potential to spread infectious diseases. Improperly dispose, can cause injuries and even the general public, potentially transmitting blood-borne like HIV and hepatitis. The toxins released from heavy metals can persist in the environment for extended periods, contaminating soil and water sources. The World Health Organization (WHO) has reported that incineration of medical waste is known carcinogens and can cause reproductive and developmental problems in humans and wildlife. Improper disposal of expired or unused medications can lead to their presence in water bodies, affecting aquatic ecosystems and potentially entering the human food chain. Hazardous substances can leach into the soil, ecosystems and agricultural productivity. Radioactive waste from medical procedures, poses unique challenges. We can mitigate the risks associated with medical waste and work towards a healthier, more sustainable future.

Flight is one of the most extraordinary adaptations in the animal kingdom, enabling organisms to explore ecological niches that would otherwise be inaccessible. This chapter delves into the comparative study of flight evolution in birds and insects, two distinct groups that independently developed this ability through different evolutionary pathways. The analysis begins with a review of fossil evidence, tracing the origins of flight in insects back to the Carboniferous period, while bird flight is explored within the context of theropod dinosaurs. The chapter then examines the anatomical adaptations that support flight in these groups. Insects utilize a combination of direct and indirect flight muscles to power their membranous wings, which are supported by a network of veins. In contrast, birds have evolved complex feathered wings, driven by large pectoral muscles attached to a keeled sternum, and supported by lightweight, hollow bones. The respiratory adaptations necessary for sustained flight are also explored, with insects relying on a tracheal system and birds on a highly efficient lung-air sac system. Biomechanical analysis reveals that insects rely on unsteady aerodynamics, generating lift through leading-edge vortices, while birds employ a mix of steady and unsteady flight mechanics, allowing for energy-efficient soaring and high-maneuverability flapping. The chapter also discusses the ecological roles that flight has afforded these groups, from pollination and predation to migration and seed dispersal. This comparative approach not only highlights the convergent evolution of flight but also underscores the diverse strategies that have evolved to meet similar functional demands. By integrating up-to-date research, the chapter provides a comprehensive overview of how flight has shaped the evolutionary trajectories and ecological success of birds and insects, offering insights into broader evolutionary processes and the dynamics of adaptation.

In our previous studies 2,6 -Dichloro quinone -4- Chloroimide(Gibbs reagent) used as a mild oxidizing agent with various substrates. In our present study we are presenting the reaction rates of permethrin by Gibbs reagent. Generally Permethrin used in medications and insecticide .Permethrin generally used in agricultural field and veterinary medicine . It is a pale brown water insoluble substance. Its molecular formula is 391.29.Permethrin is a blend of stereo isomers .The reactions are consecutive : the first stage of oxidation of permethrin is by [OH-] and the second stage of oxidation is by 2,6-Dichloroquinone. The reactions are found to be first order in oxidant and first order in substrate. The reactions were independent of [OH-].The rate of reaction is increased with increasing the temperature .Majority of the reactions studied at room temperature. The mechanism is likely to involve atwo stepoxidation reaction to generate a p-quinoid species. A blue colour Gibbs -permethrincomplex is formed after completion of the reaction. A suitable mechanism is postulated to explain the result .

Biopharmaceuticals have revolutionized medical treatments with innovations such as monoclonal antibodies, gene therapies, and cultured cell-based therapies. The increasing number of FDA-approved biologics from 2015 to 2023 highlights their expanding role in treating a wide range of medical conditions. As research continues to progress, we can expect even more exciting developments in the field.

An irregular menstrual cycle is one of the hallmarks of PCOS, a neuroendocrine metabolic condition. Synthetic medication therapy is a successful treatment for PCOS. However, because allopathic medications have limits and natural treatments have great therapeutic outcomes, PCOS patients are drawn to natural solutions. In many rural places, medicinal plants play a major role in the healthcare of women. Modern medications have been created from plants that have historically been utilized as a starting point for the development of new drugs with therapeutic effective observations. Women can easily acquire affordable healthcare through kitchen cures. Women's dietary habits often mirror their awareness of their health. In this comprehensive review we addressed the function of various Indian herbs in PCOS in light of the importance of herbal therapies. Materials & Methods: A comprehensive literature search and data mining was carried out about the efficacy of Ayurveda prescribed herbs supportedbyscientific efficacy and toxicity studies (preclinical and clinical) against PCOS by consulting the Scopus, PubMed, Google Scholar, Cross ref, database. Results: In this study, we addressed the role of selective Indian herbs in PCOS treatment with mechanisms through scientific studies conducted in the last two decades.
