Published: August 2022

Lung cancer is one of the most diagnosed diseases in men and women and is the leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. The purpose of this study is to examine the impact of lung cancer on the role of iron status markers in patient serum. The present study included fifty (50) lung cancer patients (males and females) and forty (40) healthy subjects. The levels of iron status markers that include iron, ferritin, transferrin, transferrin saturation (TS%), total iron binding capacity (TIBC), and unsaturated iron binding capacity (UIBC) were estimated in the serum of lung cancer patients, as well as the value of interleukin 6 (IL-6) were recorded. Generally, the results of the present study revealed significant differences (p<0.05) in the levels of iron status markers and IL-6 in the serum of lung cancer patients in comparison with the control groups. The findings of this study suggest that these indicators play an important role in lung cancer at multiple levels and that the specific activity of these biomarkers may be relevant as an independent predictor of lung cancer disease progression.

Authors: Munge Baswaraj , Sayana Suresh Babu , Sanjeeva Kumar Goud T , Kodandaramu Burli
Published: August 2022

Background: Statins are one of the mainstay treatment modality for the people suffering from dyslipidemia. Statins reduce the cholesterol bio-synthesis by ß-hydroxy-ß-methyl glutaryl Co-A (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibition which is rate-limiting enzyme. It also affects the Vit-D levels as metabolism of cholecalciferol and cholesterol are interrelated. Objectives: Effect of atorvastatin/ rosuvastatin on 25-hydroxy Vitamin-D (25OHD) concentrations among subjects with newly diagnosed dyslipidemia. Materials and Methods: Prospective randomized, open-label, parallel group study. Lipid and 25OHD levels are measured at baseline and end of 6 months after statin treatment. One group received atorvastatin and another study group received rosuvastatin for 6 months. Results: Mean 25OHD concentrations are 32.0±4.7, 31.7±4.8 and 32.9±4.9 in the control, atorvastatin and rosuvastatin groups respectively. Both atorvastatin and rosuvastatin groups, except TGs, all the lipid parameters and 25OHD has showed significant difference (<0.001) from baseline to end-line repeated parameters. All the study participants were well tolerated and no one discontinued the drug due to drug-related adverse reactions.

Authors: Reddy Gangadhara P. , Ramashri T.
Published: August 2022

A tumor-infected brain is a dreadful illness. It is an area in the brain caused by cell development irregularity. An infected brain area might be challenging to identify and categorize using the MR imaging approach. Images of human brain anatomy are resulted using various imaging methods. Strange brain compositions are difficult to detect using standard image processing methods. MRI differentiates and explains the human neurological design. This research proposed an analytical method for detecting brain tumors. As a result, the brain tumor early diagnosis technique is crucial for reducing mortality rates. We propose a computer-aided radiology system that will analyze brain tumors from MRI data to diagnosis. We constructed a model that uses FCM and Kernel FCM to segment the MRI images and DWT to extract features and the SVM network to classify tumors.

Authors: Khalid Hamza Ahmed , Thuwaini Mahdi M. , Al-Snafi Ali Esmail
Published: August 2022

Background and aims: Angina pectoris is the discomfort felt when the heart muscle does not receive enough oxygen. The definition of stable angina is the presence of symptoms only with exertion. Chest pain, or its angina equivillant, is a defining feature, and it is relieved by rest or nitroglycerin when exercise is ceased. Often, this is one of the first symptoms or warning indications of underlying coronary disease. The proinflammatory state is believed to aggravate endothelial dysfunction by activating endothelial cells, releases cytokines and chemokines, which may be crucial in the atherosclerotic plaque formation which is the primary cause of angina pectoris. We studied the value of some cytokines and cardiac markers as a diagnostic and follow up markers in patients with stable angina. Methodology: The study was carried out on 50 patients diagnosed with stable angina pectoris, who visited Nasiriya Heart Center throughout the period from December 2021 to April 2022,  and 20 age matched healthy person.  IL-1β, IL-5, IL-6, IL-8 were assayed at baseline (hospital admission), 1 day and 1 week post-PCI  by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).

Published: August 2022

This study analyzes factors affecting BRI Syariah Bank's profitability in Indonesia. This study sampled BRI Syariah Bank's 2013-2020 yearly financial statements that fit the study's requirements. Data for Bopo, Nim, Inflation, and Roa come from the official BRI Syariah bank and Bank Indonesia (BI) websites for 2013 – 2020. This study uses the ROA ratio as a metric of BRI Syariah Bank's profitability and BOPO, NIM, and Inflation as independent variables. This study uses the Ordinary Least Square (OLS) data analysis method to obtain a thorough picture of the relationship between variables using Eviews10 software. According to study, BOPO negatively affects ROA (Return on Assets). Operating Costs and Operating Income (BOPO) are less significant than required. The study shows that BOPO has a detrimental impact on ROA (Return on Assets). NIM and inflation study results had little impact on BRI Syariah Bank's ROA. This study reveals that Islamic banks are resilient to inflation and don't rely on profit margins. This study suggests Islamic banks reduce operating costs to boost profitability.

Authors:   Department of Finance, College of  Business, King Abdulaziz University, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia., Al Zyood Dr. Mahmoud M. Al Zyood*,
Published: August 2022

Non-performing loans (NPLs) have become increasingly worrying to the Saudi banking sector. Sanctioned loans have a repayment schedule, including principal and interest amounts. Excessive defaults on loans leads to a liquidity crisis throughout the banking sector, and can even cause bank failure. As a result, banks have to cover non-performing loans and maintain reserves under the instructions of the Saudi Arabia Central Bank, which severely affects profitability. This study analyzes the comparative position of non-performing loans in the Saudi banking sector over the period 2009-2017 to determine causes and impacts on bank profitability, using data from annual reports. The study variables are profitability (ROA and ROE) as the dependent variable, and non-performing loans ratio (NPLR) as the independent variable. The data was analyzed by correlation, regression, and analysis of variance (ANOVA) using SPSS. The empirical results represent that NBLR has a negative influence on the dependent variable.

Away from the tendency of the novels of this era to deal only with some family structure, this novel analysis today's social conditions. In this novel, the corruption, violence, lies, and philandering happening in society have been openly depicted. Today, India is not ruled by anyone. Some are swayed. No obligation. No dignity. No control. The poor are also robbed by the poor. The rich also oppresses. Where are we going? We don't know. There is an uncontrollable situation where there is a party in the name of race, a party in the name of caste, a party in the name of religion, and the demonstrations of extremists. A hundred novels can be written about the current situation in our country. But in the foreword of the author, "Enna Puniyam" (But what's the point), he is angry at the current situation, and this novel is an expression of his fear that he can change it in any way through his writing. Education, medicine, and politics are the most important problems that people are facing today. Keeping in mind the imperatives of the times, this article explores the trend of injustices in these sectors and the manner in which narratives are taken to address them. It can be seen that the changes taking place in people's lives from time to time and the living conditions of people today have been depicted in this novel. Like the blood flowing in the body, the demon of bribery runs like a drain in the whole of our country, which is running like a sewer. Corruption, deception, and disruption by politicians could be seen everywhere. This novel makes us think about how to eradicate the corruption and bribery that have crept in like cancer. A situation has arisen in which the man who wishes to live in any way is forced to live somehow in today's era. Therefore, this novel teaches that one should not respect money but respect the mind and live with humanity. In the future, it is hoped that such books will help, like the squirrel that helped Rama to build the bridge, in the future to change the current trends of life and improve the morals of the people so that future generations can live happily in a corruption-free society.

Food is one of the basic needs for human life. Agriculture has been seen as the primary occupation in Tamil life since the earliest times. A system of selling manufactured goods through barter was observed. Business is the basis of the economic development of the country. Merchants were called by their profession. The currency of the barter system evolved systematically in response to the time environment and demand. During the Sangam period, merchants who were respected by the king acted with neutrality, so the development of trade was carried out with two main divisions, namely sea trade and land trade. Markets also led to trade, especially in export and import modes. The way business was conducted during the British rule, the development of business in modern times, and in today's e-commerce service, led to various changes, using various strategies, the business has been working very well according to the development of the country and the needs of the time.

Authors: K Boomari
Published: August 2022

It is the Sangam literature that is a testament to the antiquity of the Tamil language and a repository of Tamil culture. Such Sangam literature has continued to be read in one form or another since its inception. The Sangam literature, which was considered oral literature, was read aloud through recitation and singing. It can be seen from the verses of Nannul that the reading continued till the time of Sage Bhavananthi, who composed Nannul, which is considered a dependent of the book of Tolkappiyam. The advent of the printing press in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries made the Sangam literature hidden in paper prints accessible to all. This article summarises the continuous reading of Sangam literature from aural reading, which is known to have been the case during the Tolkappiyam period, to today's online reading.
The Stratification of Chastity in the Ideology of Classical Literature
Authors: E Rajasekar
Published: August 2022

This article conducts a conceptual study of chastity, using classical literature data as the scope of the study. This study seeks to know whether there are changes in the definition of chastity over time and whether the stratification of such changes has been reflected in the understandings of life. This review establishes proposed anti-feminist frameworks that link different assumptions about chastity to gender differences. Social contradictions have been created by aligning chastity with economic perspective and patriarchal thinking. Also, because there are a lot of chastity-related discourses that target only the female gender, the situation where the female gender has to accept its objectification occurs in classical literature. Constructing the state of infinite love as illicit and the state of finite love as chastity, the boundaries of illicit love and the boundaries of chastity are positioned as polar opposites. In particular, there has been an attempt to move the illicit love life towards the point of morality. But since morality has different definitions, it would be antithetical to measure another ideal by the same different yardstick. There have also been obscurantist discussions about the blackout discussions that have also occurred in the classical literature that warn men who drift from morality and punish women who do the same. This study advances the exploration of the cultural components that constitute chastity and uncovers its different hierarchies, thereby calling for some changes in the definitions of chastity.
Agricultural Science in Moral Literature
Authors: S Meenakshi
Published: August 2022

Literature is a mirror reflecting the lives of ancient Tamils. The poets who teach morals to the people have hidden agricultural science concepts in their works. The sophisticated agricultural knowledge of the ancient Tamils, who divided the land including the mountain plantations into forestry, the forest-based land into animal husbandry, the field-based land area into agriculture, and the sea-based land into fisheries, is immeasurable. Our land gave respect to agriculture, as told by Bharathiyar, "Let us pay homage to ploughing and industry". It would not be an exaggeration to say that the agricultural civilization emerged at the same time as the riverine civilization. The ancient Tamils created four social groups based on the occupations they did. The method of tillage followed by Velalars, one of these castes, has evolved into agronomy in modern times. This review article examines the agricultural techniques of the ancient Tamils by showing the shreds of evidence from the "Pathinen Kilkanakku" books.
