Authors: Tarasiuk Tetiana V. , Ioffe Oleksandr Yu. , Chukanov Oleksandr M. , Kryvopustov Mykola S. , Stetsenko Oleksandr P.
Published: August 2024

Aim: To study the effectiveness of BTA in a total dose of 100 IU as the preparation for patients with primary and incisional ventral hernias (VH).
Materials and Methods: The prospective study included 59 patients with large VH (defect ³10 cm). All patients received 100 IU of BTA in abdominal wall muscles 4-5 weeks before surgery from June 2017 to December 2022. An average age of the patients was 59.13 ± 9.07 years, body mass index – 32.20 ± 4.95 kg/m2.
Results: An average width of the hernia defect after BTA decreased by 4.5 ± 1.11 cm (p<0.001). An average length of the hernia defect after BTA also decreased, without clinical significance. A significant increase in the length of the abdominal wall and a decrease in its thickness were observed. The abdominal cavity volume after BTA increased by 4.04 ± 4.55% (p=0.008) and the hernial sac volume decreased by 21.43 ± 16.57% (p=0.005). All patients underwent surgery with hernia defect suturing and without component separation: laparoscopic IPOM hernioplasty – 50 (84.7%) patients, open IPOM hernia repair – 7 (11.9%) patients, open sublay hernioplasty – 2 (3.4%) patients. There was no recurrence of hernia during 12 months after surgery.
Conclusions: The administration of 100 IU BTA allows to increase the length of the abdominal wall muscles and to perform laparoscopic IPOM hernioplasty for patients with large VH.

Published: August 2024

Background: Despite known benefits of breastfeeding and challenges medical trainees face lactating at work, research specific to Canadian surgical trainees is lacking. Our objectives were to examine existing breastfeeding and lactation policies, query experiences and opinions of surgical trainees and program directors, and propose a comprehensive policy for programs nation-wide.
Methods: A multi-disciplinary team developed this two-part study. The scoping review used database and grey literature searches to find North American policies covering surgical residents. The survey study queried lactating Canadian surgical trainees and program directors about experiences and barriers, support provided, and interest in a breastfeeding and lactation policy.
Results: Ten policies were found. None comprehensively addressed lactation space and supplies, break times, supports, and resident responsibilities. Among ten PD survey respondents: 60% were female, 70% had lactating trainees during their tenure, 40% discussed lactation accommodations, and all were willing to instate a policy. Among 24 trainees: 45% met breastfeeding goals, 74% stopped breastfeeding prematurely due to work barriers, and 88% had little workplace support. Almost all trainees (96%) wanted a policy.
Conclusion: There is opportunity and appetite for a more comprehensive breastfeeding and lactation policy for Canadian surgical residents. Our policy highlights important areas where trainees can be better supported to meet breastfeeding goals.

Published: August 2024

A number of factors can cause photographs to deteriorate over time, losing their clarity and aesthetic appeal. The goal of this research is to help restore priceless memories because images act as memory triggers and better image quality can increase clarity and visual comfort. This research is important because it may aid in the recovery and preservation of special memories that were captured in
damaged photos. Restoring an image's visual quality has the power to arouse feelings and create closer ties to the past.AI has made great progress in several areas in the recent past. However, questions concerning the veracity and
authenticity of visual content have been raised due to the possibility of false information and the spread of deepfakes. We set out to create an automated system that could accurately distinguish between photographs taken by hand and images created by artificial intelligence as a solution to this problem. Furthermore, there are some useful advantages to improving image quality, including better vitality, higher clarity, and less eye strain when viewing the restored photos. All things considered, this study shows how deep learning using GANs works well for image restoration, emphasising its usefulness in retrieving
priceless memories and improving visual content for wider
uses. The findings of this study demonstrate the potential
benefits that AI-driven image restoration methods could
have on our daily interactions with visual information in
the digital age as well as our personal life.

Published: August 2024

To summarize the versatility of civil law and what all it entails in a single tight compartment is akin to doing injustice to the vast field of civil law. To streamline the procedure of the same, the Civil Procedure Code came into the being. The code was introduced with the basic aim to rationalize and consolidate the process to be following while adjudicating matters related to civil law. With the introduction of Hindu Marriage Act, 1955, Muslim Marriage Act, Special Marriage Act, 1955 and so on coupled with the rise in matrimonial related disputes and resultant sharp rise in the number of cases being filed, the Family Courts Act, 1984 was incepted. Eventually all states too made their own rules to bring together the whole process in a linear manner. In this paper the author aims to analyse as to what extent CPC determines the functioning of cases filed under the ambit of family Law and if at all the family courts by virtue of Family Courts Act, 1984 have been given certain independence in this aspect. If yes, then where does that stem from primarily and in case of conflict between the two which one would prevail.

Exploring Self-Reflexivity in Selected Dalit Literatures
Authors: - Amit Kumar Shukla
Published: August 2024

Dalit literature, which emerged prominently in the 1970s and 1980s, represents a significant shift in Indian literary and cultural discourse. It is deeply connected to the Dalit Panther Movement in Maharashtra, which sought to confront and challenge entrenched caste hierarchies and social injustices. Historically, Indian literature has been dominated by upper-caste perspectives, which marginalized lower-caste voices and reinforced existing social structures. Dalit literature disrupts this hegemony by foregrounding the experiences of those historically marginalized, challenging traditional literary canons that glorify upper-caste perspectives and advocating for a redefined cultural legitimacy. Self-reflexivity, a process of critical self-examination within social contexts, plays a crucial role in Dalit writings. It involves reflecting on one’s identity and its formation within oppressive socio-cultural frameworks. Dalit literature often explores the interplay between spatial identity and caste discrimination, emphasizing how physical and social spaces are laden with historical and cultural meanings. This reflexivity enables Dalit writers to question and reconfigure their identities in response to systemic inequalities. Historically, Dalit writings can trace their roots back to Vedic traditions that justified caste hierarchies. Figures like Sharankumar Limbale and Eleanor Zelliot highlight how Dalit literature is a counter-narrative to these oppressive traditions. Early Dalit writers, influenced by social reformers like B.R. Ambedkar and movements such as Bhakti, used their works to critique caste-based injustices and advocate for social change. Education has been a transformative force in Dalit autobiographies, serving as a means for personal and societal advancement. Despite historical resistance to the education of untouchables, British colonial reforms and missionary schools played a pivotal role in improving educational access.

One of the most significant and challenging issues affecting the entire banking industry in India is the problem of Non-Performing Assets (NPAs). The primary source of revenue for banks is the interest collected on the loans they extend. However, when banks lend money, they assume the risk of bad credit. This means that the bank is exposed to potential losses if the borrower fails to repay the loan. The conducted analysis addresses the long-standing issues and concerns associated with Non-Performing Assets (NPAs) in scheduled commercial banks in India. This paper aims to assess the efficiency of each scheduled commercial bank in India over the period from 2005 to 2021. It evaluates key indicators, including net profit, total assets, total liabilities, and total employment. The aim and objectives of this study are to evaluate the variables impacted by NPA for public sector and private sector banks in India, to identify the scheduled commercial banks' NPA management shortcomings. The methodology which has been implemented in this study descriptive and panel regression analysis. Results shows that the larger NPA is in private sector bank when compared to public sector bank.

Intellectual property pertains to the composition of the human intellect. And, the intellectual property right is basically an entitlement of jus in re propria over intangible things. In other words, it is a right over the skills, ideas and intellect of a person. It is fictional in nature and quite different from formal properties. It encompasses copyright, trademarks, service marks, geographical indications, patents, utility models, plant varieties, industrial designs, trade secrets and layout designs, among others. IPR have garnered significance in contemporary times. It has gained importance throughout the whole Nations in recent times. Now, it is no more a subject of law but also a subject of general or public interest. The purpose of enacting laws related to foster the advancement of science, technology, arts, literature and another creative works, while encouraging and rewarding creativity. India is widely recognized for its intellectual progress in fields such as software engineering, missile technology, and space missions, including lunar and interplanetary explorations. Despite these achievements, India lags significantly in engendering intellectual property rights (IPR) fortunes including registered patents, industrial designs, and trademarks. According to a recent report by the US Chamber of Commerce, India positioned 29th out of 30 countries in the global IP survey. This paper is an attempt to highlight the emerging dimensions of copyright laws with special reference to the legal implications and futuristic approach. This concerning scenario highlights the urgent need for the policymakers to strengthen India's IP infrastructure and policies because lack of IPR awareness and protection can lead to the demise of inventions, increased risk of infringement, and economic losses.

Objectives:
The purpose of the present study was to Formulation, optimization and evaluation of drug for chronotherapeutic drug delivery using compression coating technology for hypercholesterolemia.
Material and Methods:
The drug delivery system was designed to deliver the drug at a time when it could be needed for the most in the early morning (4 to 6 a.m.) for patients in case of hypercholesterolemia. The pulsatile concept was applied to the dosage form by having a lag phase followed by an immediate release. The prepared system consisted of two parts: a core tablet containing the active ingredient and fracture outer shell with delay-release polymer having diffusion characteristics. Solid dispersion was carried out by screening of betacyclodextrin, Polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP K30), and HPMC using three different drug complex ratios 1:1, 1:2, and 1:3 by a solvent evaporation method through spray dryer. The immediate-release core tablet (IRCT) was prepared by using a superdisintegrant with active ingredients. Screening of IRCT was carried out by pre and post compression parameters, disintegration time and an in-vitro dissolution study. The pulsatile release tablet (PRT) of optimized IRCT was made by Glyceryl Behenate and Dibasic Calcium Phosphate. Optimization of polymer concentration of PRT was carried out by pre and post-compression parameters, pulsatile lag time, and an in-vitro dissolution study. A 32 factorial design was employed to optimize the PRT. The design consisted of two dependent variables R1, and R2 independent variables X1 and X2. The two independent formulation variables selected for the study including Concentration of coating polymer and Concentration of lubricant. The dependent variables are Lag Time and Thickness.
Results:
XRD, DSC and FTIR spectra showed that solid dispersion was formed by the drug and PVP K30 complex. IRCT batch RR1 containing 22mg croscarmellose sodium to achieve good 30sec disintegration time and 98.34% drug release at the end of 20 minutes of Ezetimibe respectively. PRT formulation DR6 showed good pre and post-compression parameters with a satisfactory drug release of 98.34% for Ezetimibe respectively with a lag time of 6 hours. The 32 factorial design was used for the optimization of PRT parameters. A total of 9 experiments were performed for two factors at three levels each. The optimized batch showed 98.27% DR for Ezetimibe in 6.2 hrs (within 20 min after lag time) with pulsatile lag time up to 6.0 hrs and thickness of 5.10 kp.
Conclusion:
It was concluded that tablet within the tablet, pulsatile drug delivery of Ezetimibe (BCS class-II drugs) was successfully formulated with the advantage of enhanced solubility, and pulsatile release behavior and had an added benefit of suitable for chronopharmacotherapy of diseases that show circadian rhythms in their pathophysiology.

Published: August 2024

Slum improvement is a critical challenge faced by urban planners and policy-makers globally as burgeoning urban population outstrips the capacity of cities to provide adequate housing and services. This paper explores comprehensive strategies for the improvement of slums focusing on sustainable development, community involvement and policy innovation. By analyzing successful case studies from diverse urban contexts, the paper identifies key elements that contributes to effective slum upgrading including secure land tenure, provision of basic services, economic opportunities and participatory planning process. The research highlights the importance of integrating slum communities into the broader urban framework to ensure social equity and economic inclusiveness. Recommendations are provided for policymakers and urban planners on designing and implementing holistic slum improvement programs that can adapt to the unique needs of each community, fostering resilience and sustainable urban growth. This study also involves finding locational attributes of slums and assessment of present status of slums. The study is focused on the Bathinda Municipal Corporation and information for the analysis is culled from secondary sources. Slums in Bathinda tend to cluster around undeveloped regions, empty lots, and water features (such as the Sarhind canal) and other forms of urban sprawl. As they find it the most suitable and safe place to live. They settle near industrial areas because of their work. The vast majority of slum inhabitants own property and live in permanent residences. However, the actual causes of the difficulties include substantial property prices and a lack of critical amenities such as drainage, sewage, water supply, and solid waste disposal. Furthermore, in the informal home supply sector, there is insufficient land accessible to the poor in Bathinda.
