Published: October 2024

The purpose of this essay is to investigate the inclusive approach of MSMEs (Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises) and the seven pillars in order to boost health care in India and achieve the Sustainable Development Goals. A new wave ecosystem and the entrepreneurial spirit of the next generation are driving factors behind the social and economic transformation of both rural and urban regions. Micro, small, and medium-sized firms (MSMEs) and small and medium-sized companies (SMEs) are at the vanguard of this trend. Their products and services include a wide variety of medical gadgets and cutting-edge medications, in addition to items that are associated with COVID-19. One-third of India's gross domestic product (GDP) is contributed by micro, small, and medium-sized companies (MSME), which are responsible for providing opportunities, employment, and a boost to the empowerment of women. ICT-Artificial Intelligence, the Internet of Things, blockchain technology, and manufacturing in India are all areas that Digital India is working to promote in order to meet the needs of society as well as the demand of the global market. This is accomplished through the implementation of government programs and policies, the Partnership and Collaboration Model, the support of unicorn startups, and indigenization efforts in the healthcare sector. The National Health Policy also draws together the business sector and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) in order to develop infrastructural facilities for healthcare that are cheap. Ayushman Bharat PM-JAY, the Budget, and Niti Aayog have all shown their commitment to provide more resources and promoting health care respectively.

Authors:   Nirwan University Jaipur, Rajasthan, India., Sivakumar Sunitha , Choudhary Vijay Laxmi ,   Nirwan University Jaipur, Rajasthan, India.
Published: October 2024

This paper investigates the effects that single parenting can bring to the emotional development of students at primary school as it is more commonly seen among single-parent families, taking into account what makes this particular type of parenting both specific to single-parent families and typical for single-parent children. With an increasing number of children today being raised by a single parent, there is also an increasing need to understand what this means for their emotions. This qualitative and quantitative study explores how parenting styles, economic hardships, and social support networks interlock. The empirical findings indicate that single-parent households may face different issues. First of all, the shortage of finances and less time for emotional investment is a great limitation. However, that might not outweigh the strengths based on parent-child relationships, good communications, and community support. The research suggests that children from single-parent homes can grow up with surprising resilience and emotional well-being when supported by stable relationships. The study also stresses forming relationships with teachers, friends, and other relatives that will help them develop positively emotionally. The study further proposes that teachers and the makers of educational policy should strive for developing programs that will be supportive to all single-parent families for optimum emotional development of children. This paper sets out in general to add to understanding of the interaction between single parenting and emotional development. It is hoped that this input could be helpful too in informing practice and policy at many levels to support children in all kinds of family circumstances.

Published: October 2024

The objective of this work was to arrive at quantitative estimates of pyrophoricity of uranium in different geometries. The major source of heat generation was identified to be exothermic chemical reactions of uranium with moist air. Time evolution of temperature was studied for uranium considering 3D conduction and convection heat loss routes using Finite Element Analysis. Auto ignition temperature for uranium flakes was quantified using heat balance equation and was found to be around 500 K. Excess heat generation rates needed to cause auto ignition of uranium flakes at room temperature were also estimated. The major sources of excess heat leading to its ambient ignition could be attributed to friction and other exothermic chemical reactions of process impurities in uranium.

This study aims to describe evidence of how music preference can mediate exercise responses and performance benefits, identifying which factors may be particularly beneficial for optimizing performance. In addition, the practical implications for practitioners will be highlighted with considerations for strategies to elicit maximum performance through musical preference. The research methodology of this study was based on a literature review study, without the participation of the population or samples. Thus, the articles were extracted for the first time by the authors. The full texts of the relevant articles were then independently evaluated by the authors and advisor. The understandings of each study related to the proposed theme were extracted from all the experiments included. When the data on music and its relationship with physical activity were not explicitly provided, the other significant contents were analyzed to verify which data extraction would be feasible from the works to incorporate this review study. Through the current evidence, it is therefore concluded that an important aspect to increase performance with music is personal choice. In many gyms, locker rooms, and competition environments, music is played over a loudspeaker. The current data available therefore suggests that if music played over the speakers is not preferred by the individual who strives, the performance may suffer from depredations. Thus, coaches and athletes must consider individual musical preferences when trying to optimize performance and training.

Published: October 2024

Paracoccidioidomycosis is a fungal disease caused by the fungus Paracoccidioides brasiliensis, which prefers humid and warm places. Male individuals between 30 and 60 years of age are generally the most affected by this disease, especially those who work in rural areas or gardening. The objective of this study was to conduct a literature review addressing the topic of paracoccidioidomycosis in dentistry, highlighting its oral clinical aspects, increasing the knowledge of dentists so that they can help in the early recognition and diagnosis of the lesion. Diagnosis can be made through fungal culture, incisional biopsy, serological tests, histopathological analysis of the skin and mucous membranes, and chest X-rays to check for possible lung involvement. The most frequent clinical signs appear in the alveolar mucosa, gums, palate, and tongue, but other areas of the body can also be affected by the condition. In most cases, the disease is identified through oral clinical characteristics, and the dentist is the first professional to treat these patients. Treatment for paracoccidioidomycosis is prolonged and varies according to the severity of the lesions, involving the use of various antifungals such as itraconazole and cotrimoxazole. To increase the patient's life expectancy and prevent the spread of the disease, it is essential that the dentist recognizes the oral clinical manifestations, performs tests, and correctly refers the patient for appropriate medical treatment.

The identification and detection of hand motions is the focus of this project. Using a web camera, hand gesture photographs are captured. These images are then compared to database images, with the best match returned. In order to create user-friendly interfaces, gesture recognition is one of the most important strategies. For instance, a robot that can identify hand gestures can accept commands from people. Similarly, a robot that can understand sign language would enable people who are deaf or hard of hearing to communicate with it. Recognition of hand gestures may make it possible to use a controller-free application to interact with the system by gestures rather than words. Such an algorithm must be more resilient to consider the plethora of alternative hand locations in three-dimensional space. Using a webcam and computer vision technologies, such as image processing, that can recognize multiple movements for use in computer interface interaction, this research proposes a method for developing a real-time hand gesture recognition system based on “Vision-Based.” Real-time hand gesture recognition has a wide range of practical applications since it can be utilized practically wherever that computer is used. We can open various programs in this project, including word processing and notepad. We used the convolutional neural network approach based on finger curves to invoke apps error-free.

STRENGTHENING E-SERVICES AS A NEW IDENTITY PARADIGM IN SERBIAN RETAIL BANKING DURING COVID-19
Authors: Popović Šević Nevenka , Sljiepčević Milica , Šević Aleksandar
Published: October 2024

The retail banking sector has been significantly affected by the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in the first quarter of 2020. Banks’ share prices have sunk and to demonstrate their business acumen and resilience, it is necessary to offer an alternative to customers who do not want to visit retail branches. In our questionnaire distributed to retail banking users in the Summer of 2020 we examined the attitude towards branch banking and e-banking, respectively. We find that during the COVID-19 pandemic, customers were less willing to use branches, but the visits were not completely interrupted. In addition, this trend was somewhat conditioned by the area where respondents lived, i.e. Belgrade, Inner Serbia or Vojvodina. The impact of COVID-19 was more severe in larger urban areas, but this did not seem to cause more digitalization across various age groups. While the health hazard has reduced the frequency of bank visits, we have found that the youngest users, i.e. those in the 20 to 30-year cohort, are more determined to use e-banking services and avoid visiting branches. For banks that aim at reducing bank queues and the number of branches, repositioning in the market also means that e-banking advertisements should be tailored not only for the oldest clients but also for those older than 40 years of age.

Актуальность. Несмотря на появление передовых технологий и новых подходов к эндодонтическому лечению, хронический апикальный периодонтит остается серьезной проблемой стоматологии и частой причиной удаления зубов. Актуальность проблемы подчеркивает важность глубокого понимания морфологии корневых каналов, которая является ключевым фактором успеха как хирургических, так и нехирургических эндодонтических методов лечения. Цель. Оценить распространенность дистолингвальных каналов (DLC), Radix Entomolaris (RE) и средних мезиальных каналов (MMC) в первых молярах нижней челюсти (M1M) у лиц казахской национальности с использованием конусно-лучевой компьютерной томографии (КЛКТ). Материалы и методы. Проведен ретроспективный обзор и поперечное исследование архивных снимков КЛКТ 500 зубов у пациентов с различными жалобами. Включались ранее нелеченые зубы с полностью сформированными корнями. Осевые срезы снимков КЛКТ оценивались от корональной до апикальной областей. Подтверждено наличие или отсутствие DLC, MMC и RE в M1M. Результаты. Из 500 пациентов у 20 (4%) выявлен среднемезиальный канал, у 52 (10,4%) — дистолингвальный канал и у 30 (6%) — Radix Entomolaris. Вывод. Среди населения Казахстана в M1M распространены RE, MMC и DLC. Эти анатомические вариации показали двустороннюю встречаемость, что подчеркивает важность их учета для предотвращения осложнений при эндодонтических процедурах.
The Emerging Role of Gut Microbiota in Metabolic Diseases
Authors:   MAHSA University, Malaysia, Zaman Sher
Published: October 2024

The human gut microbiota, consisting of around 100 trillion microorganisms, plays an essential role in regulating metabolic balance and supporting overall health. It is well documented that dysbiosis is associated with a number of metabolic disorders including type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), obesity, hypercholesterolemia, and cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). Recent studies have shown that the gut microbiome influences metabolism, immune responses, and even neuroendocrine signaling by producing metabolites like short-chain fatty acids. In obesity, the altered Firmicutes/Bacteroidetes ratio is linked to increased energy harvest from the diet. At the same time, specific bacterial taxa such as Akkermansia muciniphila and Faecalibacterium prausnitzii exhibit anti-inflammatory properties and are inversely correlated with obesity-related inflammation. Dysbiosis in T2DM is associated with reduced levels of beneficial bacteria like Bifidobacterium and Roseburia, which are important for maintaining gut barrier integrity and regulating immune responses. Furthermore, hypercholesterolemia and CVDs have also been linked to gut microbiota composition. Specific bacterial strains, including Lactobacillus and Clostridium, are involved in bile acid metabolism, cholesterol homeostasis, and the modulation of lipid levels. This review article aims to provide an in-depth analysis of the role of gut microbiota in metabolic diseases, exploring the underlying mechanisms of microbial dysbiosis and its contribution to disease progression. Targeting microbial dysbiosis through therapeutic interventions such as probiotics, prebiotics, and dietary modifications could offer promising strategies for preventing and managing metabolic disorders, thereby improving overall health outcomes.

Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have revolutionized cancer therapy by offering durable responses for specific patient populations. The heterogeneity in results among individuals underscores the vital need for reliable predictive biomarkers to guide therapeutic strategies. This review aims to elucidate the current landscape of biomarkers in ICI therapy, focusing on their capability to predict patient responses and guide personalized cancer treatment. We examine both existing and emerging biomarkers—such as programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression, tumor mutational burden, circulating tumor DNA, gene expression profiles, and the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio—which provide critical insights into patient classification, therapeutic response monitoring, and identification of resistance mechanisms. Despite their potential, considerable challenges remain, including tumor heterogeneity, variability in biomarker testing, and the complexity and dynamic nature of biomarkers across different tumor types. Progress in multi-biomarker approaches and the use of artificial intelligence demonstrate potential for enhancing prediction precision and facilitating more personalized immunotherapy treatments. Additionally, this review summarizes completed and ongoing clinical trials investigating the effect of predictive biomarkers in directing ICI-based cancer treatments and their ability to tailor therapeutic strategies. In conclusion, the review provides an overview of the role of predictive biomarkers in response to ICI therapy.

Research focuses on the problems experienced by post-marriage families. The aim of this research is to determine the role of the Church in assisting families after marriage. Building a new family through a legal marriage bond according to the Church and the state does have many obstacles and is not easy. There are many discussions about family crises marked by violence and divorce, a very strong reason is the mental attitude that rejects moral values ​​in marriage, resulting in a decline in the marriage bond. The method used in this research is a qualitative, naturalistic descriptive method. The informants for this research consisted of married couples, guardians, parents and parish priests. The research results show that the role of the Parish in assisting post-marriage families has not been implemented, despite the fact that many young families experience separation and end up in separation, the St. Francis Xaverius Wolotopo Parish has not been able to overcome developing factors such as cultural factors. This lack of awareness can be seen in the absence of work programs and follow-up support activities for post-marriage families.
Importance of Sports Activity for the Better Mental Health of the Indian Student

Physical activity, beyond its well-documented benefits for physical health, plays a crucial role in enhancing mental well-being. Research suggests that individuals with sedentary lifestyles exhibit higher morbidity rates and increased healthcare expenditures. In response to these challenges, exercise therapy is often recommended as an effective intervention for maintaining mental health. Empirical studies have consistently established a positive connotation between physical activity and various mental health outcomes. Notably, nonclinical investigations highlight that regular exercise significantly enhances self-concept and body image. This review aims to summarize current physiological and psychological mechanisms by which exercise contributes to mental well-being. One of the primary physiological pathways involved is the regulation of the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, which plays a serious role in stress reply. While exercise has been shown to alleviate indications of depression and anxiety, its effects appear to be more pronounced in clinical populations than in the general public. Multiple theoretical models have been projected to explicate the relationship between physical fitness and mental health.
