Abstract

It is becoming more widely acknowledged that spirituality and decision-making processes interact and have an impact on mental health. This abstract investigates how spirituality affects mental health and decision-making. A moral compass and increased meaning in decisions are two ways that spirituality, which is frequently associated with values, beliefs, and purpose, can direct decision-making. People who have a solid spiritual foundation typically have higher levels of resilience, coping skills, and psychological health in general. Additionally, spirituality cultivates a sense of interconnectedness that may impact decisions made regarding prosocial and altruistic actions. On the other hand, tension and cognitive dissonance can result from decisions that contradict spiritual beliefs. Developing holistic approaches to personal development and psychological interventions requires an understanding of the subtleties of spirituality's influence on mental health and decision-making.

The concept of a Uniform Civil Code has been discussed in our nation since independence. While some advocate for its implementation, arguing that it would unify the population and eliminate discriminatory personal practices, the issue is multifaceted. Implementing such a code could potentially suppress diversity and enforce what may seem like 'progressive' ideas onto a population perceived as 'backward.' When it comes to matters of religion, legal imposition often fails if the desire for change does not arise from within the community. Trying to rationalize personal faith is challenging. However, this does not justify hiding behind claims of diversity and religious freedom to justify outrageous customs. It is essential for both the courts and the government to intervene to safeguard fundamental rights in such situations. Nevertheless, in areas where personal beliefs are deeply ingrained, court rulings might not effectively alter perceptions. In our nation, many people strongly identify with their religion, and personal law plays a significant role in their religious identity. This vulnerability makes people highly prone to disruptions. I will endeavour to assess the feasibility of implementing a Uniform Civil Code in India and explore its potential repercussions. This assessment will be based on considerations of practicality and morality. Additionally, I will examine how individuals respond when there are attempts to alter deeply held beliefs by referencing the case of the Sabarimala temple entry. Can the Supreme Court dictate how religions should manage their affairs? If so, under what circumstances? These inquiries, along with others, will be addressed by referencing case studies, Supreme Court judgments, and scholarly opinions.

ABSTRACT The Immoral Traffic (Prevention) Act, 1956 has criminalised commercial prostitution in India but this law does not talk about criminalising voluntary, paid and consensual sex work. In modern times, due to the activeness of various NGOs, due to more focus on the rights of women and due to various progressive judgements of higher courts, women have been given freedom to choose their profession. In this regard, the concerned authorities have been asked to not take any legal actions on the women who are consensually involved in the profession of sex work. In the light of various ambiguities in the modern and traditional societies and due to the changing mindsets of people, it becomes necessary to analyse the legal status of the prostitution as a profession in India and it has to be found out what steps should be taken to secure the rights of sex workers and to provide them an opportunity of rehabilitation. In this paper, it has been examined whether the act of prostitution is legalised in India or not. The legal status of paid and consensual sex work is analysed. Doctrinal method of research has been followed. Indian laws and judgements of courts have been analysed. The shortcomings and loopholes in the existing legal system have been detected. It has checked how legalisation of paid and consensual sex works will solve various existing and ongoing dilemmas in the perception of people regarding sex work as profession and how legalisation will protect people involved in paid and consensual sex work.

 Abstract

This study aimed to evaluate the phytochemicals and antimicrobial properties of leaf extracts of four plant species - Ficus Benghalensis, Ficus Krishnae, Calotropis Procera, and Alstonia Scholaris. Methanol and chloroform were used as solvents for extraction, and preliminary phytochemical investigation showed the presence of alkaloids, saponins, tannins, phobia tannins, flavonoids, carbohydrates, free amino acids, cardiac glycosides, steroids, and phytosterols and revealed the presence of various bioactive compounds. Antimicrobial activity was tested against six bacterial strains (Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus coagulants, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Proteus vulgaris) and two fungal strains (Candida tropicalis, Saccharomyces cerevisiae) using the agar well diffusion method. Results showed that methanolic extracts had better antimicrobial activity than chloroform, although all extracts showed activity against the microorganisms tested. These findings indicate that the leaf extracts of these plants contain natural products with potential pharmaceutical applications.

PROBLEM STATEMENT -A study to assess the effectiveness of structured teaching program on knowledge regarding medication adherence among caretakers ofschizophrenic patient coming to outpatient department at tertiary care hospital of the city? BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY Medication adherence is the first and main determinant of treatment success. Non adherence is a multi-factorial phenomenon that can result from five major interacting factors. These are health team and health system-related factors; patient-related factors; therapy related factors; socio-economic factors; and condition-related factors. The prevalence of non adherence in mental illness was found to be 40% to 60% worldwide. The most important and highly encountered form of medication non adherence is where a patient does not follow the recommended dose and frequency. The ratio of non adherence has been reported as 40%- 60% for antipsychotics. Moreover, in studies evaluating medication adherence based on diagnosis, the ratio of non adherence to medication has been shown to be 11%-80% in patients with schizophrenia. MATERIALS AND METHODS The Research Method adopted for the present study is Quasi-experimental Approach, which is quantitative research design. Non probability convenient sampling technique is used. The study is aimed at assessing the effectiveness of structured teaching program knowledge regarding medication adherence among the caretakers of schizophrenic patient and determining its effectiveness statistically. Sample size is 60. Self- structured questionnaire was used as tool. RESULT In pretest, 16.7% of the caretakers of schizophrenic patient coming to psychiatric outpatient department of tertiary care hospital had poor knowledge (Score 0-8) and 71.7% of them had average knowledge (score 9-16) and 11.7% of them had good knowledge (score 17-25) regarding the medication adherence. In posttest, 1.7% of the caretakers of schizophrenic patient coming to psychiatric outpatient department of tertiary care hospital had average 10 knowledge (Score 9-16) and 98.3% of them had good knowledge (score 17-25) regarding the medication adherence. CONCLUSION The findings of the study suggest that the caretakers had inadequate knowledge about medication adherence during pre-test and there is significant increase knowledge regarding medication adherence after administration of structured teaching program. The present study also states that there is no significant association between knowledge regarding promotion of mental health and prevention of mental illness and demographic variables like age, gender, area of residence, type of family .This study could help in bringing about awareness on promotion of mental health and prevention of mental illness, leading to a healthy life ahead. The result shoes that the demographic variables like relationship with the patient, occupation and total monthly income were found to have significant association with the knowledge regarding medication adherence among caretakers of schizophrenic patient coming to psychiatric outpatient department of the tertiary care hospital. The study could help to improve the knowledge regarding medication adherence and prevent relapse of illness.

 Abstract

High strength and high performance concretes are being widely used nowadays all over the world. In developed countries, use of high strength concrete in structures today has resulted in both technical and economical advantages. In high strength concrete, it is necessary to reduce the water-cement ratio and which in general increases the cement content. To overcome low workability problem, different kinds of pozzolanic mineral admixtures and super plasticizer are used to achieve the required workability. At the same time, scarcity of concrete constituents and their cost are increasing day by day demanding the promotion of utilization of suitable waste materials as alternatives. Particularly, substitute to conventional sand in concrete are given prime importance due to many social, environmental, economical and budget oriented problems. The present work deals with the development of quarry dust concrete with total replacement of conventional sand with quarry dust and the study is made with systematic approach with sequential steps. A conventional M30 grade concrete mix design was made using ACI, BS and IS methods and based on the 7 day strength an optimum mix was recommended for experimental studies. In the designed mix sand ii replacement by weight of 0%, 20%, 40%, 60%, 80% and 100% with quarry dust was considered. Concrete with these six different mix ratios were prepared and for the sake of exclusive reality, no plasticizer was used. Workability tests were conducted; relevant specimens were cast, cured and tested for strength and water absorption characteristics. Irrespective of the percentage replacement of sand with quarry dust, as the variations in the strength results were found negligible, a total 100% sand replacement with quarry dust was considered for further research. However as the water consumption is slightly more compared to sand concrete, it was decided to use minimum dosage of plasticizer and same recommended for the next phase of study after conformation. To study the feasibility and adoptability of using quarry dust for concrete instead of conventional sand, quarry dust concrete was further considered for thorough investigation. M30 grade quarry dust concrete was designed with the properties of quarry dust as fine aggregate and workability and strength characteristics were determined. The results are compared with that of sand concrete also. Similar trials were made for higher grades that include M40, M50 and M60 grades exclusively with quarry dust as fine aggregate. M30 and M40 grades iii concrete were designed using IS method and M50 and M60 grades by ACI method. To modify, based on the observations on concrete, additives to concrete namely fly ash and silica fume were also considered. Cement replacement by 10%, 20% and 30% of flyash and silica fume by 5% and 10% replacement were considered. For comparison, sand concrete of the above four grades were also considered then and there. Including sand concrete and quarry dust concrete with additives like flyash and silica fume, totally twenty six different mix proportions were considered for experimentation. For these different grades of concrete the workability, strength in various nature and durability characteristics were obtained. Compressive strength at 90 days of curing was also obtained in addition to 7, 28 and 60 days of curing. Based on the observation from the test results, workability of fresh concrete was gradually improved with super plasticizer and for higher grades of concrete including silica fume, when compared to control concrete. The strength and durability characteristics of quarry dust concrete was increased up to 15% by adding silica fume with QDC when compared to control concrete. The overall test results revealed that quarry dust as fine iv aggregate with silica fume as a partial replacement of cement up to 10% is an excellent substitute to yield higher strength of concrete. ANN model has been proposed to predict the compressive strength of concrete for different grades. A reasonably close agreement has been obtained between the experimental and the predicted values. The qualitative and quantitative conclusions are presented. It is concluded finally that, development of quarry dust concrete by totally replacing conventional river sand is possible, viable and feasible with all positive and negative strategies similar to conventional river sand concrete promoting cost effective technologies at same time promoting the environmental protection against sand mining.

ABSTRACT:- The raw materials used in cement are limited and also non- renewable. So it is been need to be conserved for future generations. With this goal of attaining sustainable construction in concrete is emerging throughout the world. Fly ash from coal based power plants is one such waste which is abundantly available in the different parts of India. Red mud is the composed of a mixture of solid and metallic oxide-bearing impurities, and disposal problems the red mud caused by the oxidized iron. Red mud cannot be disposed of easily. To find the optimum replacement of cement by red mud & fly ash. To find the compressive strength, split tensile strength and flexural strength of red mud & fly ash used concrete. To identify various industrial wastes suitable for utilization in cement manufacture. For concrete to be durable, careful selection of the mix and materials is necessary, so that deleterious constituents do not exceed the limits. So it is very essential to conduct tests regarding cement, fine and coarse aggregate to know their strength, consistency and stability and durability. Good quality materials will increase the strength of the concrete.The mix proportions shall be selected to ensure the workability of the fresh concrete and when concrete is hardened, it shall have the required strength, durability and surface finish. The grade of the concrete used in this project is M35 and we adopted design mix concrete. The mix shall be designed to produce the grade of concrete having the required workability and a characteristic strength. IS 10262-2009 is used for calculating the quantity of materials and its proportion. Quality assurance should be made to ensure the quality of the materials used for mix of concrete. The project is not only concerned about the characteristic strength of concrete but also concerned with workability, consistency, stability and durability of concrete.

Children are vital to the nation's present and its future. Parents, grandparents, aunts, and uncles are usually committed to providing every advantage possible to the children in their families, and to ensuring that they are healthy and have the opportunities that they need to ful fill their potential. Yet communities vary considerably in their commitment to the collective health of children and in the resources that they make available to meet children's needs. This is reflected in the ways in which communities address their collective commitment to children, specifically to their health. Park K,Texbook of Preventive and social medicine(2015), says that, the child is the future of citizen of the nation . World's greatest resource for a future lies in the children of today.Today's children are tomorrow's citizen and leaders. Investment in the children develops is thus an investment in the country's future and improving the nation's quality of life.Stated that Pneumonia is the single largest infectious cause of death in children worldwide. Pneumonia killed 920 136 children under the age of 5 in 2015, accounting for 16% of all deaths of children under five years old. Pneumonia affects children and families everywhere, but is most prevalent in South Asia and sub-Saharan Africa. Children can be protected from pneumonia, it can be prevented with simple interventions, and treated with low-cost, low-tech medication and care, For many countries the post Millennium Development Goal agenda has explicitly included ending preventable diarrhoea and pneumonia deaths as a priority action.

BACKGROUND: Tinea infection is defined as circular, itchy erythematous eruptions on the various parts of body. The different variants of tinea are tinea capitis, tinea corporis, tinea cruris, tinea mannum, tinea unguinum, tinea facie and tinea barbae. The incidence of tinea infection according to WHO is 20%-25% in population. As in the concern of its treatment many antifungal topical and steroid medicines are present in conventional system of medicine but it only showed temporary relief. Homeopathy, on the other hand being the second most popular mode of treatment showed the exponential relief in the patient suffering from varieties of tinea infection. It not only cut down the recurrence of the disease like tinea, but also improves the health of patient as a whole. Due to scarcity in research related to tinea in previous years compel us to do the research on this topic. Homeopathy literature has ample amount of information related to tinea infection and these information will be utilised in this thesis work.MATERIAL AND METHODS: A prospective observational clinical study on 40 (=n) patients was carried out at the National Institute of Homoeopathy, Kolkata.Medicines were prescribed on the basis of individualization and reportorial totality through BBCR. Outcome was assessed by improvement in patient as a whole or reduction in size of the lesion, pruritus intensity scale using numeric rating scale(NRS) and DLQI (dermatology life quality index).RESULT: Study showed that out of 40 (=n) patients, moderate improvement showed by 18 patients i.e 45% and complete improvement showed by 14 patients i.e 35%. The difference in the mean value of Lesion size, pruritus intensity scale using numeric rating scale (NRS) and DLQI (dermatology life quality index) score before and after treatment was 4043.07, 5.42 and 13.72 respectively. ANOVA (analysis of variance)test was used and it showed that result is significant at p <= 0.05 which reject the null hypothesis (H0) in treatment of tinea infection.CONCLUSION: The response of homoeopathic medicine was encouraging with evidence of improvement in patient condition as a whole which shows the importance of BBCR in making totality of symptoms and selection of homoeopathic similimum during clinical practice.

 Abstract

In the realm of popular music, rap music may influence people's behavior through its explicit lyrics. This study examines the correlation between the frequency of rap music consumption and attitudes toward substance use among young adults aged 18-35 years. Furthermore, it examines the impact of listening to of rap music on attitudes toward substance use among individuals of different genders. The study utilizes a quantitative research approach, employing convenience sampling for data collection, and correlation analysis, and a t-test for data interpretation. The hypothesis suggested a connection between the frequency of listening to rap music and positive attitudes towards substance use among young adults. Furthermore, it is hypothesized that there is a significant gender-based difference, with males being more susceptible to developing positive attitudes toward substance use due to higher exposure to rap music than females. Consistent with the initial hypothesis, there is a positive relationship exists between the frequency of rap music consumption and attitudes toward substance use among young adults. The findings reveal a significant gender-based difference, with males displaying a higher tendency for positive attitudes toward substance use and higher exposure to rap music than females. This research seeks to offer insights that could direct public health campaigns and educational strategies with the goal of promoting healthier choices and minimizing substance use among young adults. The general limitations of this study include limited qualitative insights, temporal factors, sampling bias, self-selection bias, response bias, and changing rap subgenres. The general ethical considerations applied in this study were informed consent, anonymity and confidentiality, avoiding coercion, and transparent reporting. To conclude, listening to rap music with regular recommendations for drug and alcohol use, as well as general smoking recommendations, tends to encourage substance use among young adults, according to this research study.

It also identified the problems encountered in the procurement process and proposed plans of actions that can improve the procurement process. The researcher attained the objectives of the study, through a research strategy known as quantitative correlational research design. The researcher also identified the respondents of the study using purpose sampling design. The researcher used a survey questionnaire to evaluate the level of awareness of the employees involved in the procurement process and evaluated the process in terms of timeliness, number of signatories and transparency. The data collected were analyzed using Likert scale, frequency, and percentage. The study's findings reveal that a majority of the respondents possess a substantial awareness of the Procurement Law (RA 9184). Specifically, they demonstrate a solid understanding of the governing principles on government procurement (4.16 - Aware), emphasizing their grasp of the fundamental concepts underlying procurement processes. Furthermore, they are fully aware of procurement planning (4.50 - Fully Aware), recognizing its pivotal role in effective procurement. While they display awareness of procurement by electronic means (3.96 - Aware) and the existence of the Bids and Awards Committee (3.82 - Aware), they are especially knowledgeable about the preparation of bidding documents (4.16 - Aware) and the procedures related to the receipt and opening of bids (3.99 - Aware). They also demonstrate awareness of post-qualification, award, implementation, and contract termination processes (3.87 - Aware) and alternative methods of procurement (4.05 - Aware). However, a significant challenge noted is the return of procurement documents due to incomplete requirements, which is prevalent among 88% of respondents. This issue poses potential delays and obstacles to the Unified Command's procurement efficiency. To address this, the top-priority proposed action involves urging end-users and purchasing units to submit complete documents with all necessary signatures, emphasizing document integrity and timely submissions (87%).

 Abstract

Social media is crucial for governments to improve public communication, deliver services, and manage crises efficiently. These platforms enable rapid engagement with a broad audience, encourage trust, address inquiries, and monitor public sentiment. Government use of social media underscores the need for public institutions to align with client needs, foster trust, adhere to legal requirements, and create a secure online community. Presently, the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) stands as one of the national departments with an existing guideline governing the implementation of social media management within the Department. This study focused on assessing the current state of the implementation of DSWD Administrative Order No. 16, Series of 2021. Employing a quantitative descriptive research design and utilizing survey questionnaires, interviews, and document analysis, the researcher assessed the perceptions of DSWD Region III's social media team and their clientele. Engaging these two distinct groups was crucial in this study to ensure that the existing guidelines focus on citizen-centric operations. In particular, this study described and evaluated the Department's implementation in terms of social media accounts, social media account management, content management, and crisis management. Furthermore, this research aimed to identify if a significant difference exists in the perceptions of these two distinct groups through a statistical technique. This helped the researcher identify existing challenges and propose measures to improve the Department's existing social media guidelines. The study found that while the DSWD Region III's social media team strictly adheres to the comprehensive guidelines outlined in this Administrative Order to the best of their capacity and resources, there is a significant difference in the perception between them and the clientele in the areas of social media account management and content management. These areas particularly cover the concerns of only one social media account in the entire region, lack of updated contact information on social accounts, deficiency in content inclusivity, especially for persons with disabilities, and the existence of DSWD Region III "fake" accounts. In summary, the Administrative Order has successfully directed the daily operations of the DSWD Region III social media team, benefiting a wide range of clients in the region. Nevertheless, it is imperative for the Department to reevaluate specific guidelines outlined in the AO to address the current challenges of the clientele. Likewise, challenges raised by the Region III social media team warrant attention from the Central Office to ensure the Department maintains optimal public service through social media.

The purpose of the study is to ascertain how the involvement of the Local Economic Development and Investment Promotion Office may influence and expedite the region's economic progress. The study's conclusions, which focus on the pertinent factors that drive economic dynamism, will assist the private sector and local governments in developing and implementing plans and policies that will increase the competitiveness of the local economy, draw in investment, and ultimately lead to inclusive growth and sustainable development. A researcher-made questionnaire was used in the study. It was based on the mandated functions of Local Economic Development and Investment Promotions as stated in the Guidelines on Promoting Local Economic Development and Investment Promotion and the establishment of LEDIP Office/Unit in all Provinces, Cities, and Municipalities, Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) Memorandum Circular No. 2020-167. Moreover, the researcher made use of the Cities and Municipalities Competitiveness Index (CMCI) to understand the level of economic dynamism of Central Luzon using the ten (10) indicators used by CMCI. The Economic Dynamism Indicators show that the cost of doing business is the top priority for investors, primarily due to low-cost production locations. The Local Economic Services Division's implementation is average due to issues encountered along the way. The Business Development function is used to a limited extent, and the implementation of investment services duties is partially or moderately successful due to job duplication and insufficient funds. Economic indicators such as cost of living, financial deepening, and local economy growth are crucial for business development functions. The level of implementation of Local Economic Development Investment Promotion is influenced by the Economic Dynamism. A well-designed organizational structure, budget support, updates to the Local Investment and Incentive Code, and marketing strategies are necessary for efficient operation and achieving desired economic outcomes. To increase economic dynamism in Region 3, the research advises local lawmakers, officials, and other stakeholders to implement Local Economic Development and Investment Promotion. It recommends changing policies, doing capacity building to improve the skills of LEDIP officers and support staff, and making LGUs submit their local data capture sheets. Guidelines should have consequences for breaking them. LGUs should establish and maintain connections with NGOs, business sectors, government agencies, and academic institutions in order to foster business-friendliness and competitiveness. Hiring personnel with experience in company growth will guarantee that divisional tasks are completed efficiently. In addition to creating the Implementing Rules and Regulations, municipalities should assess their local investment and incentive codes. Funding and institutionalization of the LEDIP Office are necessary for its efficient operation.

The Indian government has designated eight essential sectors, one of which is the cement industry. The world's second-largest manufacturer of cement is India. It developed into a vital industry that supports the growth of the national economy and employs over 10 lakh people. Cement manufacturing businesses can now create cement in greater quantities than they could in the past due to technological advancements. On the other hand, increased output has also been widely identified as the primary contributor to pollution. The building sector is one of the worst for resource depletion, energy use, and trash production in terms of environmental degradation. Climate change and global warming are mostly caused by emissions from the cement industry. One of the most widely used building materials is cement, whose output is rising globally. However, the cement industry uses a lot of energy and produces a lot of noise, scents, and pollutants. It will have an effect on socioeconomic and demographic elements of society and is a significant source of emissions, including CO2, NOX, SOX, VOCs, and particulate matter. The present paper is a to study the impact of cement industries on socio-economic and demographic aspects in Damaracherla and Nereducherla in Nalgonda district, Telangana

 Abstract

Bovine tuberculosis (bTB) is one of the most widespread chronic infectious diseases of zoonotic importance, causing significant economic losses in animal production. However, little epidemiological information is available on the disease in dairy cows in southern Ethiopia in general and the study area in particular. Therefore, a cross-sectional study was conducted between March 2022 and May 2023 to assess public awareness and examine the prevalence and associated risk factors of bTB in the city of Wolkite in southern Ethiopia. A total of 32 herds with 196 dairy cows were tested using the Single Intradermal Comparative Cervical Tuberculin (SICCT) test. To identify potential risk factors for bTB positivity in cattle, generalized linear mixed models (GLMM) and generalized linear models (GLM) were used to analyze the risk factors at the animal and herd level, respectively. An overall prevalence of 18.37% (95% CI: 13.57-24.38) and 46.87% (95% CI: 30.87-63.55) bTB was found at the animal and herd levels in the study areas. In this study, bTB positivity at the animal level was significantly associated with age (OR = 6.6, 95% CI: 2.19-37.02) and source of animal (OR = 3.1, 95% CI: 1.24-8.12). At the herd level, the analysis showed that management condition (OR = 4.7, 95% CI: 1.12-19.91), stocking density (OR = 6.3, 95% CI: 1.96-20.24), and new cattle introductions (OR = 2.8, 95% CI: 1.01-8.18) were significantly associated with bTB status. Of all dairy farm owners and workers surveyed, only 25.92% had information about bovine tuberculosis; of them, 32.14% were aware of the zoonotic importance of the disease. More than 69% of respondents said they prefer consuming raw milk. Therefore, animal owners and stakeholders should be made aware of the cause, the transmission routes and their effects on animals and humans.
