Authors: Ahmed Shehnaz Maqbool , Farooqui A.H. , Khan Tausif S. , Aayasha  , Chaudhary R. A.
Published: November 2022

Dysmenorrhea is pain related with menstruation in Unani medicine, and ancient texts are abundant with traditional knowledge for managing menstrual pain.It is the most frequent gynecologic condition among female teenagers, affecting more than half of women between the ages of 18 and 25 years. It is characterized by painful cramps in the lower abdomen that are accompanied by one or more symptoms such as perspiration, lower backache, exhaustion, diarrhea, headache, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, and syncope in severe instances. Because conventional medicines often do not completely relieve pain and have their own side effects on the human body, it is necessary to understand the traditionally documented therapeutic options that have no adverse effects on the human body. The many causes and treatments for dysmenorrhea have been discussed in the unani literature under the category of waje rehm / dard rehm / usre tams. According to Unani manuscripts, the main management strategy is to induce analgesia and address the underlying cause of usr-i-tamth, which includes aberrant temperament, monthly irregularities/uterine disorders, as well as psychological and environmental variables. Unani drugs having emmenagogue, antispasmodic, anti-inflammatory, and analgesic are helpful in the treatment of usr-i-tamth.Herbs including Apium graveolens, Cuminum cyminum, Foeniculum vulgare, Matricaria chamomilla, and Nigella sativa have the aforementioned qualities, and their usefulness in usr-i-tamth has been scientifically verified. Validation and preservation of traditional knowledge are thus necessary for future study and important for usage in the modern period. The focus of the review study is on the treatment of dysmenorrhea in the unani medical system. It also goes over some of the herbal medicines and unani compound formulations that are used to treat dysmenorrhea.

Published: November 2022

Sailan-ur-reham(Leucorrhoea) is a common gynaecological disorder. Almost 20% of the patients attending gynaecological clinics complain of vaginal discharge indicating some form of infection. In 90% of cases the inflammation is usually relatively mild and the remaining 10% are more serious. Married women are at greater risk to suffer from leucorrhoea as these women are exposed to sexual activity and frequent child bearing which may lead to vaginal infections like –cervicitis, cervical erosion and pelvic inflammatory disease causing leucorrhoea. In literature of Unani Medicine discharge from uterus, cervix and vagina other than blood are described under the heading of sailan-ur-reham. Hence sailan-ur-reham may be compared to leucorrhoea in modern system of medicine. In Unani system of medicine, the basic causes of disease are related with the concept of Akhlat (humour) as described by Buqrat, (Hippocrates 360-470 B.C.). According to the theory of akhlat veginal discharge can be Damvi (Sanguine), Balghami (Phlagmatic), Saudawi (Malencholic) and Safrawi(choleric) depending upon the dominance of akhlat.

Published: November 2022

Pharmacovigilance (PV), which is also known as drug safety. It is the pharmacological science relating to the detection, assessment, understanding and prevention of adverse effects, particularly long term, and short term side effects of medicines [1]. The key role of this field of medicine is to ensure the safe reception of drugs, examining the adverse side effects reported by patients. The compound causing side effects in the drug need to be identified and the remedy to counteract the side effect should be explored. This study was carried out at Regional Research Institute of Medicine (RRIUM), Srinagar, wherein a total of 10 patients suffering from general body ache, common cold and fever etc were analysed for the adverse side effects caused after prescribing the pharmacopoeial drug Habb-e-Karanjawa. It was observed that almost all patients suffered from gastritis after the consumption of the drug. After a thorough analysis of the ingredients of the drug it was concluded that the corrosive effect of compound copper sulphate or TutiyaSabz present in Habb-e-Karanjawa can be the main reason of causing gastrointestinal problems in patients.

Published: November 2022

The influence of globalization on traditional settlements is an unavoidable phenomenon. Globalization is forming a new relationship between global and local that is dynamic. To maintain the continuity of traditional settlement identity, strengthening local cultural values has a strategic role. Traditional settlements in the Cetho Temple area are among the pockets of Hindu Javanese community settlements that still survive on Mount Lawu. This settlement has a unique cultural landscape. The East direction is sacred for the Javanese Hindu community in the Cetho Temple area. This research aims to identify Hindu Javanese community settlementsâ architectural orientation and layout in forming cultural landscapes in the Cetho Temple area. The discussion of this study was supported by a qualitative dataset, which included interview data on local informants and community leaders. The data is then triangulated with observations in the study area. The studyâs findings showed that settlementsâ architectural orientation and layout in the Cetho Temple area influenced sacred orientation towards the East. First, the east direction becomes the consideration of the Hindu Javanese community in determining the direction of the house of residence. Second, the east direction considers the Hindu Javanese community in determining the direction of pawon(fireplace furnace). Third, the east direction is considered by the Hindu Javanese community in determining the orientation of the burial place. Fourth, the east direction is considered by the Hindu Javanese community in performing religious ceremonies and meditation. This result is helpful as a reference for planning and structuring the cultural landscape in the Cetho Temple area and can enrich the theory of structuring historical areas elsewhere.

Published: November 2022

The present investigation deals with the study on the diversity of phytoplankton and zooplankton community structure in twelve selected sampling sites of the wetlands of Nameri National Park and its adjacent area using various diversity indices. The survey was carried out from January 2018 to February 2020. A total of 36 genera of phytoplankton and 21 genera of zooplankton belonging to four families each were identified in this study, which include Chlorophyceae, Bacillariophyceae, Cyanophyceae, Desmidiaceae, Cladocera, Copepoda, Rotifera and Protozoa. Family Chlorophyceae was dominant among the other groups of phytoplankton and the family Cladocera and Rotifera were found to be the most dominant group in the zooplankton followed by Copepoda and Protozoa. Low community similarities, seasonal species richness variations and the cluster groupings affirmed heterogeneity of plankton species composition. The maximum diversity of phytoplankton was observed in pre-monsoon at S3 and minimum in monsoon season at site S6 and for zooplankton, diversity index (H Ì) was found to be the highest at S6 during pre- monsoon and lowest at S5 in monsoon period. Slight variations of the species diversity of plankton population among the four seasons across all the studied sites indicate good quality of the habitat Ecosystem.

Authors: Bais Rajni
Published: November 2022

Vanadium is extensively utilized in a variety of industries, including textiles, chemical manufacturing, metal plating, and many more. Pentavalent Vanadium is a highly toxic and carcinogenic substance when present in high concentrations. Therefore, eliminating it from industrial effluents before it can reach any water supply or land is critical. In the present research, the determination of trace V(V) by Differential pulse polarography (DPP) and its removal from industrial effluents by using Annona squamosa leaves as biosorbent has been analyzed. The mercury electrode is used as working electrode for DPP analysis. The reference and auxiliary electrodes were Ag/AgCl and platinum wire respectively. The biosorbent capacity of Annona squamosa leaves were analyzed by using different parameters like pH, concentration, contact time, biosorbent dosage, and temperature. The V(V) showed a sharp DP peak at -1.19V in presence of Ammonia-Ammonium phosphate buffer. The maximum V(V) adsorption was 8.1mg/g and 85%with respect to contact time and concerning temperature respectively. The present study concluded that the determination of V(V) by DPP are in good agreement with that of results obtained from UV-VIS technique. Further the biosorbent so prepared from Annona squamosa leaves is likely to be a cost-effective, economically feasible, and easily available material for removing V(V)from industrial effluents.

Authors: Singh B. , Gahlaut V. , Dutta H.N.
Published: November 2022

Northern India has an increase in surface air pressure during winter; this causes the atmosphere to clearout, resulting in the production of significant surface inversions. High-pressure zones are also calm andwind direction changes only when a western disturbance enters the area. The wind is substantially strongerwhen there is a low-pressure system. As a result, the pollutants in northern India are regulated by a sequenceof high- and low-pressure weather situations. October 29, 2016, was when the wind direction unexpectedlyshifted from NW to NE and then to N. Wind speeds dropped from 1-6 km/h to near-calm during this time,which indicated the passing of a high-pressure zone, based on the readings of the pressure gauges. Pollutionfrom northern states was brought into the national capital region by a combination of low wind speed andthe windâs direction. NCR was clogged with high levels of particulate matter during Diwali celebrations,which were exacerbated by heavy traffic, factory production, and firecrackers. The grave situation persisteduntil the wind shifted directions and increased its velocity. On the monostatic acoustic radar installed atREMTech, Shamli, detected the persistence of a substantially raised layer over the region, implying thatvertical mixing of pollutants was severely harmed or limited. As a result of this state, pollutants accumulated,resulting in a severe bout of air pollution. The findings of this study details an incident of such air pollution happened over Delhi NCR.

Indiscriminate use of chemicals as fertilizers and fungicide caused inconceivable detriment to the terrainand ecosystem including creatures and humans. To replace similar type of dangerous agrochemicals, naturalresult is handed by nature in the form of microorganisms having capacity to promote the plant growthwithout mainly harming the terrain. One of the natural approaches for the control of differentphytopathogenic agents is the use of biocontrol plant growth- promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR), which isable of suppressing or precluding the phytopathogen damage. The biocontrol PGPR belongs to the bacteriagenus Pseudomonas. Fluorescent pseudomonads are suitable for operation as biological control agents dueto their abundant population in natural soils and plant root system and their capability to use numerous plant exudates as nutrient. Fluorescent pseudomonads are known to have important traits in bacterialfitness similar as the capability to cleave to soil patches and to the rhizoplane, motility and prototrophy,conflation of antibiotics, and product of hydrolytic enzymes. In this review important characters, recentadvances and importance of P. fluorescens in reduction of pesticide pollution has been discussed.

The study on socio economic status of pineapple growers is a project which was aimed atfinding out thesocial life of the pineapple growers especially in these areas, where pineapple has been a source of incomefor many of the farmers. In this context, various data were collected from different sources. The primarydata were collected from 120 farmers and market functionaries in the selected district of Dimapur. Foranalysis of the data, tabular analysis, growth rate analysis and financial ratio analysis was carried out. Theper ha total cost of cultivation of pineapple was worked out at Rs10,000/-The average yield of pineapple inthese areas was 14 mt / ha, with returns of more than 1 lakh. The variation in yield was attributed to variables such as human laour, fertilizer, use of weedicides, growth regulators and planting materials. Inthe context of market, the produce was sold to the wholesalers and retailers, who in turn sold them todifferent agencies outside the state. These intermediaries involved incurred significant transportation andmarketing costs, but they could easily recover their losses once they sold their produce. The profit made bythe wholesale and retailers for one tonne of the produce was worked out at Rs 6,638.81/- and Rs 2,108.57/-, respectively indicating that they were earning as much as the producer farmers. This patternwas observedin majority of the respondents indicating the need for a proper market facility where the farmers could selltheir produce to the consumers directly. Moreover pineapple being a perishable commodityrequired goodstorage facilities, which can be solved by establishing several processing facilities in these areas whichwould add value to the produce and also would increase the returns significantly to the farmers.

This research entails the synthesis of bioplastics films out of fruit and vegetable waste (FVW)and testingtheir mechanical and physical properties. Orange peel (OP), apple pomace (AP), potato peels (PP), andtomato pomace (TP) were the FVWs used in this study. The films were developed using the casting method.The FVW powder content in the film-forming solution (FFS) ranged between 2%, 4%, and 6%. Whereasglycerol was 2%, 1.5%, 1%, and 0.5% while pectin remains constant at 4%.The treatments T0 to T12 wereapplied to each FVW with varying glycerol percentages. A high glycerol percentage resulted in a fragilefilm. From an experimental study, it was revealed that glycerol reduces tensile strength and youngâs modulus while increasing elongation at break, moisture content, and thickness. The potato peel powder (PPP) filmcontaining 0.5% glycerol was identified as the most promising film, characterized by a tensile strength of8.16 MPa, youngâs modulus of 9.96 MPa, and moisture content of 9.73%. Orange peel powder (OPP) filmhas the maximum elongation at break; measuring 16.35%. The thickness of 108.15Î¼ was the maximum forthe PPP film containing 2% glycerol. Based on the experimental study the prepared biofilms open up thepossibilities for replacing the synthetic food packaging.

One of the most common dental health problems in children is dental caries. Dental disease is a very disturbing problem in school children because it not only causes pain but also transmits infections to other parts of the body, resulting in decreased productivity. This condition will certainly reduce the frequency of children's attendance at school, interfere with learning concentration, and affect appetite and food intake so that it can affect nutritional status.

The COVID-19 pandemic has both elucidated and exacerbated racial and ethnic disparities in the United States. Conspicuous early effects in healthcare access and direct morbidity and mortality due to COVID-19 disease revealed that, compared to White populations, Black and Hispanic communities suffered greater rates of mortality,1,2 especially among older adults.3 Preliminary findings also suggest that Black and Hispanic adults were more vulnerable to income instability and food insecurity during the pandemic.4 This study examined racial and ethnic disparities in household finances during the early period of the pandemic. Using data from a nationally representative survey, we tested the hypotheses that Black and Hispanic older adults experienced reduced income and increased household spending in the first 3 months of the pandemic.
COVID-19 and Suicide – Why Our Messaging Matters

For many Americans, the COVID-19 pandemic and other political, social, economic, and environmental stressors of the past two years have resulted in serious declines in overall well-being and increases in suicide-related risk factors. Unfortunately, much of the messaging to the public during the pandemic has normalized suicide as a reaction to current stressors—which has the potential to increase risk of suicide contagion especially among those who are most vulnerable, including Black, Latino, American Indian/Alaska Native, and LGBTQ communities. The national narrative about suicide, and suicide prevention, needs to change—shifting to empower the public with concrete resources on how to talk about suicide and suicide prevention, and how to spread messages of hope, resilience, and help-seeking. As the nation continues to talk openly about the physical impacts of COVID-19, we must have the same open dialogue about the mental health impacts of the pandemic. This type of messaging is critical to the nation’s overall well-being moving forward.

Published: November 2022

Background The implementation of global quarantine protocols to address the increasing number of infected individuals in the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in a wide array of emotions, most notably that of anger. This paper provides a reflection on the case of anti-lockdown protests. We will argue that a consideration of the works of Martha Nussbaum, Harriet Martineau, and Sonali Chakravarti may prove to be valuable in constructing the post-COVID-19 world. Methods This is a narrative review. Results and Conclusion Activism in the form of protest may reflect varying realities that may be driven by social injustice or disinformation. In making sense of these expressions of anger, it becomes important that authorities consider the perspectives of other people through engagement and critical scrutiny.
