UNDERSTANDING OF KSHALANA KARMA AND ITS APPLICATION IN THE MANAGEMENT OF BHAGANDARA (FISTULA IN ANO)
Authors: Ajith Sandhya , Sivakumar C.S , V.R Remya
Published: September 2023

Therapeutically the word Kshalana(irrigation) means the irrigation of the affected site using a suitable solution for
the purpose of purification[1]. It is mentioned in the classical textbooks of ayurveda as Poorvakarma, Pradhana
karma, and Paschath karma. Kshalana is beneficial in controlling foul-smelling and slimy exudating conditions
like ulcers, vaginal infections, etc. A fistula in an ano is an abnormal tract or cavity lined with unhealthy granulation
tissue that connects a primary opening inside the anal canal to a secondary opening in the perianal skin[2]. Its prevalence is the second highest after haemorrhoids among anorectal diseases. In Ayurveda, fistula in ano is correlated
with the vyadhi Bhagandara (fistula in ano). Modern medical managements have its own limitations, even with
various surgical modalities. Due to the presence of irritant discharges and non-dependent drainage, fistula in ano
seldom shows healing intention[3]. Although Ayurvedic classics explain various treatment modalities for the management of fistula in ano, Ksharasuthra therapy owes the glorious part of management. But improper pus drainage,
pus stagnation, and microbial invasion hinder the action of Ksharasuthra. Kshalana is a simple and cost-effective
therapeutic technique. The present review focuses on the understanding of Kshalana karma along with its mode of
action and application in fistula in ano.

Authors: P Madesh , Hirulal Mahesh , K Saranya , Bhat Sudhakar
Published: September 2023

In India the burden of non-communicable diseases has been emerging rapidly due to globalization, urbanization, early ageing of society and an increased event of chronic diseases. Among all the non-communicable diseases cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) has gained our attention, as they have now become the leading cause of mortali-ty in India. Acharya Charaka explains about Dinacharya, Rtucharya, Sadvrutta in maintenance of healthy life-style. In vimanasthana he prohibits excessive and chronic intake of Pippali, Ksharaand Lavana. If they were used in excessively and for the long term it may lead to many health conditions. SarjikaKsharai.e., Sodium Bi-carbonate is routinely used in hotels, bakeries, and fast-foodcentres as a leavening agent and for giving soft and crisp texture to food. Among all the ksharas, SarjikaKshara [Sodium bicarbonate]is commonly used for prepara-tion of food in restaurants, in preparation of bakery items, fast food, cold drinks and also in some Ayurvedic classical and proprietary medicines. This study aims to evaluate the effect of consumption of SarjikaKshara for long duration on Hrudroga by an animal study.
In this study 6 Wister albino rats used as standard and 3 groupings viz-sub acute, sub chronic and chronic group with 6 rats in each were taken as experiment group after dose fixation and assessment of lab parameters. In this animal experiment it is noted that significant changes in CKMB and LDH signifies that there will be Acute and Chronic damage to the Cardiac Muscles. With this study it can be concluded that use of SarjikaKshara for long term will increase the chances for cardiovascular diseases.

Shatavari is the most commonly used Ayurvedic herb. Its therapeutic properties are described broadly in Traditional medicinal systems such as Ayurveda, Siddha, and Unani. It's advised both as a typical tonic or a female reproductive tonic. Medicinal plants are good sources of chemical substances like Terpenoids, Phenols, Steroids, Flavonoids, Tannins, and Aromatic Compounds which are widely used in the pharmaceutical, cosmetics, and food industries. These chemical substances are commonly known as secondary plant metabolites (e.g., specialized products). Opportunity to develop new products presenting few side effects and economic. The name Shatawari means “curer of a hundred diseases” (shat: “hundred”; variety: “curer”). In Ayurveda, classics refer to shelf life as 'Saveeryataavadhi’, which is necessary for physiological and biochemical responses, as well as the secondary metabolic process. Secondary metabolites (SMs) are useful for assessing the quality of therapeutic ingredients. In order to authenticate and develop the standards for this popular single drug WHO guidelines will follow; provided by CCRAS. For the standardization of this drug pharmacognostical and phytochemical parameters will be carried out such as microscopic, extract macroscopy, Protein, sugar, tannins, foreign matter, moisture content, ash value, HPTLC, etc. The standardization of herbal drugs and their bio- constituents are of paramount importance in justifying their acceptability by modern scientific methods.
A CONCEPTUAL STUDY ON ROLE OF GUDUCHI TRIPHALA KWATHA WITH THREE DIFFERENT PRAKSHEPA CHURNAS IN THE MANAGEMENT OF OBESITY.
Authors: Divakaran Neethu , Pratap Arun , R Lekshmi , Sasidharan Shan
Published: September 2023

Obesity is a chronic health condition that can lead to a wide range of health consequences, such as cardiovascular
disease, type 2 diabetes, certain cancers, and musculoskeletal disorders. Acharya Vangasena in Sthoulya chikitsa
has mentioned Kwatha prepared out of Guduchi, and Triphala added with Lohabhasma or Shilajathu or Guggulu
helps in relieving Obesity. The pathogenesis of Sthoulya can be appreciated under the process of adipose tissue dysfunction, low antioxidant defence, formation of reactive oxygen species, and lipid peroxidation, which is considered
the major cause of Obesity and its comorbidity. While analysing the properties of drugs mentioned in the formulation, most of the drugs have Medohara and Rasayana in action. Kwatha with different Prakshepa churna has different actions at specific Dhathus. Guduchi Triphala Kwatha with Lohabhasma possess Medoharatva and Rasayana
action at the level of Rasa and Raktha. Shilajathu acts on Mamsa Medo dhathu, while Guggulu acts on Asthi Majja
dhathu. These drugs have proven antihyperlipidemic, antihyperglycemic, and antioxidant properties. So, this formulation can be used as a Shamana dravya for breaking the pathogenesis of Obesity and reducing the burden of Obesity-related diseases. This article highlights the Ayurvedic understanding of Obesity and the role of Guduchi Triphala
Kwatha with three different Prakshepa churnas in managing it.
REVIEW ARTICLE ON RAKTAPRADARA (DYSFUNCTIONAL UTERINE BLEEDING)
Authors: shakya Anshul , Gupta Kanchan , Devi Reshma
Published: September 2023

Raktapradara is one of the most common gynecological disorders. According to Charaka, due to Pradirana
(excessive excretion) of Raja (menstrual blood), it is named Pradara, or there is excessive excretion or Asruk
(menstrual blood); hence it is known as Raktapradara. According to modern, it can be correlated with DUB
(Dysfunctional Uterine Bleeding). In modern medicine, Haemostatic, analgesic, & hormonal therapies are advised
for D.U.B., which has limitations, but in our Ayurvedic text, many drugs are advised for the management of
Raktapradara. These are Raktashodaka (blood purifier), Stambhak (Haemostatic), and Balya (reduces weakness).
D.U.B. can be cured with an Ayurvedic regimen & can avoid hysterectomy or other surgical interventions.

KRAMA BY AYURVEDIC AHARA PREPARATION DURING GARBHINI AVASTHA:
A REVIEW
Authors: Basumatary Anita , Humtsoe Yanbeni , Sarmah Jayanta
Published: September 2023

Pregnancy is one of the most delicate phases of a women's life. It is to be dealt with much attention at every stage.
In Ayurvedic text, pregnant lady is compared with Taila Poorna Patra, that can be spilled off even by little shaking hence needs utmost care. There is various description in different Ayurvedic classical texts of different factors
that are responsible for better progeny, starting from the "Garbhadhana Samskara" followed by Garbhavkranti,
Masanumasika Garbha Vriddhi with the adoption of Masanumasika Garbhini Paricharya and finally to Prasava
Avastha leading to delivery of the child. According to Charak, the union of Shukra, Sonita and Jiva or Atma leads
to the formation of Garbha in Garbhasaya. In most of the women just after conception of pregnancy or throughout the pregnancy, their digestive power is likely to be weakened, therefore the regular diet is difficult to digest.
Because of that the diet which is advised should be based on two main aims: 1. To increase the strength of Agni
and 2. To provide nourishment to the mother and fetus. These two aims are to be achieved simultaneously. If the
patient does not take a controlled diet, then it will lead to many complications of both mother and fetus (like, malnutrition, anaemia, IUGR etc.). To avoid this complication Samsarjana Karma is very beneficial and necessary.
In Samsarjana Krama diet changes step by step from “Laghu Ahara" to "Guru Ahara” and digestive power
shows gradual Increase.

Authors: - Akanksha , Lal Prajapati Munna , Sason Rajveer
Published: September 2023

Many drugs have been used for therapeutic purposes in Ayurveda since the Vedic period, and they are either of
the plant (Sthavar Udbhava), animal (Jangam Udbhava), or metal, mineral (Khanija) origin. After the period of
Acharya Nagarjuna, the use of metals, minerals, and poisonous drugs became prevalent. Agada Tantra is a
branch of Ayurveda that deals with the treatment of various poisons. Toxicology is concerned with the identification and management of various types of poisons, including those derived from plants and animals. Various poisons have been described, and various antidotes for their management have been mentioned in Agada Tantra
texts. A poison is a substance that, when introduced into or applied to the body, has the potential to harm or destroy life. It causes tissue damage, illness, or death in the organism. Visha is the substance that causes sadness in
the world. It was given the name Visha because it makes the rest of the world despair. It damages tissues and
causes illness or death in the organism. Visha is the substance that causes sadness in the world. It was given the
name Visha because it made the rest of the world despair1
. The drugs known as antidotes are used to neutralise or
disable the effects of poison. As we can see from the current paper, antidotes play an essential role in the treatment of poisoning. A doctor's primary goal is to preserve the patient's life. For proper treatment, the concept of
Prativisha, which has been around since the past, needs to be expanded upon, clarified, updated, and narrated.
This article, therefore, aims to compile references for various antidotes that have been mentioned in different
Ayurvedic literature

Published: September 2023

Ayurveda, the ancient system of medicine originating from India, encloses a comprehensive understanding of
plants and their medicinal properties. Ricinus communis, commonly known as Erand, has been traditionally used
in Ayurveda for its diverse therapeutic benefits. These abstract aims to explore the properties of Eranda in the
context of Vrishyavathara, which refers to substances with aphrodisiac properties and Vatashamaka. Riccinus
communis is a versatile plant known for its rich composition of bioactive compounds such as ricinoleic acid, triglycerides, flavonoids and proteins. These constituents contribute to its anti-inflammatory, analgesic, antioxidant,
and immunomodulatory properties. Ayurvedic texts describe Vrishyavathara herbs as substances that enhance
sexual vigor, improve reproductive health and promote fertility and Vatahar properties. According to Ayurveda,
Riccinus communis possesses properties due to its ability to nourish and strengthen the reproductive tissues
(Shukra dhatu) and stimulate the production of healthy semen (Shukra) and Vatahar property. The herb is commonly used both internally and externally, either in the form of oil, decoction or as an ingredient in herbal preparations. In conclusion, Riccinus communis exhibits several properties that align with the concept of Vrishyavathar

Published: September 2023

Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS) is a neurological disorder characterized by muscle weakness and paralysis
caused by the immune system attacking the peripheral nerves. While conventional medical treatments are essential for managing GBS, Ayurveda, the ancient Indian system of medicine, offers holistic approaches to complement conventional therapies. This article explores Ayurvedic perspectives on GBS and presents a range of Ayurvedic treatment strategies, including Panchakarma therapy, herbal medicines, diet and lifestyle modifications,
Ayurvedic medicinal oils, and stress management techniques. These approaches aim to restore balance to the Vata
dosha, rejuvenate the nervous system, and support overall well-being. While Ayurveda does not claim to provide
a cure for GBS, integrating Ayurvedic principles with conventional treatments can potentially enhance recovery
and improve symptom management. A collaborative approach between Ayurvedic practitioners and medical professionals is crucial for developing personalized and effective treatment plans for individuals with GBS.
A CLINICAL STUDY TO EVALUATE THE EFFICACY OF RAKTAMOKSHANA AND
ERANDAMOOLADI NIRUHA BASTI IN SCIATICA-A REVIEW
Authors: Pandey Anil Kumar , Yadav Pratima
Published: September 2023

In daily clinical practice, low backache alone or along with radiating pain in the lower limb is a common problem
in society. This is due to disc herniation at L4-L5 or L5-S1 associated with irritation of a spinal nerve root. In
ayurveda, on the basis of signs and symptoms, sciatica can be compared with Vaat-Kaphaj Gridhrasi. The word
"Gridhrasi" refers to the gait exhibited by the patient due to extreme pain. This is similar to the gait of a Gridha
(vulture). The gait is slightly tilted to the affected side, with the affected leg flexed and the other leg extended,
described as similar to that of a vulture. According to Acharya Charaka, Gridhrasi is mentioned in eighty types
of Vataja Nanatmaja Vyadhi. Ruka (pain), Toda (pricking feeling), Muhuspandana (tingling sensation), and
Stambha (stiffness) are the primary manifestations of Vataja Gridhrasi, as a further sign of Gridhrasi. Acharya
Sushruta also cited Sakthishepana Nigrahanti (limited movement of the lower limb). Tandra (drowsiness),
Gaurav (heaviness), and Aruchi (anorexia) may also be present in Vata-Kaphaj Gridhrasi. Panchakarma treatment such as Bloodletting by cupping therapy and Erandamooladi Niruha Basti (herbal medicated enema) and
Anuvasan Basti of Kshirabala Tail was used, as a Kaal Basti. These ayurvedic procedures are the easiest way to
control the signs and symptoms of the patient. This article discusses the uses, preparation of method and probable
mode of action of Raktamokshana and Erandmooladi Niruha Basti.

Authors: Kumar Bishan , Hooda Mamta
Published: September 2023

Vicharchika is one of the most common skin diseases. Vicharchika can be co-related with eczema, which is a
form of dermatitis or inflammation of the upper layers of the skin. The term eczema is broadly applied to a range
of persistent or recurring skin rashes characterized by redness, skin edema, itching, and dryness, with possible
crusting, flaking, blistering, cracking, oozing, or bleeding. Areas of temporary skin discoloration are sometimes
characterized as healed lesions, though scarring is rare. Long-standing eczema is often dry and is characterized by
thickened, scaling skin with hyper pigmentation and visible crisscross markings (lichenification). No satisfactory
treatment is available in contemporary medical practice except antihistamines and topical steroids. A patient approached OPD with chief complaints of edema, blackish skin lesions, with intense itching at the dorsum of both
ears. A remarkable improvement in the condition was observed with the local application of Arkaharidra taila in
a span of 2 weeks
CLINICAL EVALUATION OF THE EFFECT OF KATUPILADI OINTMENT
(ANUBHUTA YOGA) IN THE MANAGEMENT OF POST-OPERATIVE FISTULOTOMY WOUND- A CASE STUDY
Authors: Kumawat Hemant , Kumar Suresh , Kumar Gupta Rajesh
Published: September 2023

A fistulotomy is a surgical procedure for treating the fistula1 and leaves the patient with secondary healing of post-surgical wounds. Treating these wounds has been a challenging task, as these wounds are very much prone to secondary infection by the contamination of faces. Due to contamination, delayed wound healing may persist. For that, these wounds are classified under the contaminated wound category.2 Securinega leucopyrus (Willd.) Muell. is known as Katupila in Sri Lanka, Humari in India, and Spinous fluggea in English.3 It is a climatic de-sert plant which used topically as a Kalka form for managing acute, chronic, and non-healing wounds.4 This drug is wildly prescribed and easily available in Sri Lanka. Chemical constituents (Pharmacognostical study) of Katupila have crystals of calcium oxalate, tannins, and oil globules.5 These constituents are responsible for wound healing.6 In an Ayurvedic prospective, Acharya Sushruta has described Shashti Upakramas for managing the Vrana (wound).7 It shows the necessity of different forms of drugs as local applications. Acharya Sushruta also described Amruta or Guduchi [Tinospora cordifolia (Thunb.) Miers] as Ropana8 and Triphala [Amalaki- Emblica officinalis Gaertn., Haritaki- Terminalia chebula Retz., Bibhitaki- Terminalia bellirica (Gaertn.) Roxb.] as Sodhana (Cleaning) and Ropana (Healing) dravya.9 Hence, this case study was undertaken to evaluate the effect of Katupiladi ointment in post-operative fistulotomy wound management. For the study, the drug was pre-pared in the ayurvedic pharmacy with the standard trituration method, and after that, it was stored in a sterilized glass container.

Published: September 2023

Musculo skeletal disorders are a huge medical burden globally; multimodal analgesia and surgical procedures are
the options for treatment in contemporary science. In Ayurveda, Acharya Charaka stated in the context of Anukta
Vikara, the vitiated Vata reaches a region, causes Shoola (~ pain), Stambha (~ stiffness), Supti (~ numbness), etc.
in that particular region. Kati shula and Janu Sandhigata Vata are among such conditions which can be equated
with musculoskeletal disorders. A 47-year-old female patient with low back ache and bilateral knee joint osteoarthritis was treated conservatively with fresh Parijata Patra Kashaya. During treatment, improvement was seen in
the initial weeks. By the end of 10 weeks, the treatment protocol was found to be significantly effective in symptomatic and assessment profiles as in NRS scale, SLR, and Lumbar range of movement. Hence, in the initial stages
of the condition, Parijata Patra Kashaya would be a better choice against multimodal analgesics.

Authors: Pandey Soumya , Pingale Manisha
Published: September 2023

Ayurveda is an ancient medical science gifted from old ancient sages. It is not only a system of medicine in the
sense of curing disease. Shalakya Tantra is a branch of Ashtanga Ayurveda that deals with studying diseases that
occur above the clavicle and treatment. Karna is one among the nine bahya srotas and is considered one of the five
sensory organs. It is known as Shrotrendriya. The main function of the ear is the perception of sound along with
maintaining the equilibrium of the body. Shalakya tantra refers to the kriya kalpa, where kriya denotes a special
therapeutic approach and kalpa denotes a pharmaceutical formulation, such as swarasa, kwatha, or kalka, that is
utilized in therapy. In all kinds of karna rogas kriya kalpa are useful. Our Acharya’s explained many procedures
for karna roga like karna prakshalan, karna Pramarjana, karna Dhoopana, and karna poorana, kavala and gandusha.
AYURVEDIC MANAGEMENT OF KAPHAJA KARNASHOOLA W.S.R. TO
OTOMYCOSIS – A CASE STUDY
Authors: - Megha , V Hamsaveni
Published: September 2023

Karnashoola is one of the Karna rogas mentioned in Ayurveda. In various texts, the number of Karna rogas varies. Karnashoola is mentioned in detail by both Sushrutacharya and Vagbhatacharya. Karnashoola can be taken
as a separate disease entity and also as a Lakshana of other diseases. Acharya Sushruta describes Shoola alone as
a clinical feature in Karnashoola. On the other hand, Acharya Vagbhata incorporates Shoola, Srava, Nada, and
Badhirata as sailent features of Karnashoola. Various research works consider Karnashoola as acute or chronic
inflammatory conditions of the external and middle ear. Signs and symptoms of Kaphaja Karnashoola have a
close resemblance with the disease Otomycosis. As chronicity and recurrence rate of disease is high, utmost importance should be given to these conditions as the slightest negligence may result in hearing impairment. In this
current study, 36yr old male patient of Kaphaja Karnashoola who denied treatment for complications of ASOM
was managed through an Ayurvedic line of management with controlling of infection and significant improvement in Hearing loss and healing of perforated Tympanic membrane.

Authors: B Bhaskar , P Akki Manjunath , Hakkandi Suresh N
Published: September 2023

The Ayurvedic system of medicine to prevent and promote healthy life by following certain methods and treat-ments in daily activities (Dinacharya) can be considered as part of health promotion in this fast-moving digital age. Padaghata is one such consequential procedure explained as a daily regimen that includes both preventive and curative aspects of an individual’s health. Ayurveda has meticulously depicted the technique of Padaghata and its various benefits. This procedure helps to maintain the compactness of the body with good musculature, provides relaxation, and most importantly plays a great role in Marma paripaalana i.e., nurturing vitals. Discus-sion: Sneha Dravyas used in the Padaghata procedure undergo Paachana by Bhrajaka agni which is situated in Tvak (Aashrayasthana). Bhrajaka Pitta in its equilibrium state maintains the colour and complexion of the skin. This procedure of deep tissue massage helps in removal of lymphatic and metabolic wastes as both lymphatic and vascular tissues run superficially under the skin eventually nourishing the associated other body tissues. Conclusion: Padaghata is beneficial in keeping psycho-physical harmony in balance. Mainly in regard to main-taining a fit muscular body. The present study deals with a review of various aspects of Padaghata in the clas-sics of Ayurveda and contemporary practices.

Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) are a global health concern, and Ayurveda, an ancient system of medicine,
offers insights into the role of Agni, the digestive fire, in their development and management. This article explores the significance of Agni in Ayurveda and its influence on NCDs. Agni governs digestion, metabolism, and
toxin formation. Imbalances in Agni can lead to the accumulation of toxins (ama) and disturb dosha equilibrium,
contributing to the onset of NCDs. Restoring Agni balance is crucial in preventing NCDs, and Ayurvedic approaches focus on improving Agni through personalized treatments, lifestyle modifications, and herbal medicines.
Understanding the role of Agni provides valuable perspectives for holistic health promotion and disease prevention.
ROLE OF AAHAR VIDHI VISHESHAYATANA IN PREVENTION OF LIFESTYLE
DISORDERS – A REVIEW STUDY
Authors: Dhaygude Uditi M. , P. Bhurke Ravindra , S. Videkar Saylee , S. Jadhav Srushti
Published: September 2023

Ayurveda is the world’s ancient health care system. Ayurveda has always emphasized maintaining the health and
prevention of the diseases by following proper diet and lifestyle regimen rather than treatment and cure of the diseases. Ahara has a prime role in maintaining health and also in treating various disorders. Acharya Charak has
stated that diet sustains life if taken with discipline in a proper manner. According to Acharya Kashyap, Ahara is
considered as the Mahabhaishajya i.e., the great medicine. Complexion, clarity, good voice, longevity, astuteness,
happiness, satisfaction, nourishment, strength and intellect are all conditioned by food. Diet supports the body
constantly just like the house (is supported) by the pillars.
The food which passes through the process of aharan is called ahara. Vidhi means laws and ahara vidhi means
laws of dietetics which are beautifully explained in Ayurvedic literature.
In the present lifestyle, where everyone is busy achieving their life goals, the people are escaping the normal routine of food habits, due to which they are facing various lifestyle disorders. This can be overcome by following
detailed discipline and process to take the Ahara (food). Due to the constraints of a fast-paced lifestyle, not everyone can constantly follow all the regulations; therefore, awareness about the topic is necessary. As a result, it is
crucial to the treatment of a lifestyle disorder by avoiding its causes.

Hair is an aesthetic tool. The visible sign of ageing is hair graying. Premature graying of hair is a burning problem
faced by youth today. According to WHO, the incidence is high in the age group of 20-30 years. The depletion of

treatment of Urdhwajatrugata vyadhi. Lepa application externally on hair has been mentioned in our classics for
the treatment of Akaalapalitya. The holistic approach of Ayurveda is the need of the hour in the treatment of
Akaalapalitya without any adverse effects. In this single case study patient fulfilling inclusion criteria and diagnosed with Akaalapalitya has been treated and benefitted by Madhuka taila nasya and Japaakusumadi lepa.

Published: September 2023

La aplicación de un adecuado peritaje médico en los delitos sexuales es fundamental por su aporte a la justicia argumentos medicolegales para esclarecer los hechos, no obstante, en ciertos peritajes médicos se incumple con los objetivos de valoración, violentando normativas y protocolos previamente establecidos; hechos que pueden acarrear problemas legales al profesional que efectúa el peritaje e incluso conllevar a una revictimización. La presente investigación permitirá analizar la valoración médico pericial en presuntos delitos sexuales en Ecuador. Esta investigación de tipo cualitativo, no experimental, se basó en un enfoque narrativo descriptivo, en el que se llevó a cabo un análisis documental obteniendo de datos presentes en sitios como Web of Science, Scopus, entre otros. En la búsqueda efectuada se encontraron 10 sentencias, entre los años 2007-2011, en 8 sentencias los tribunales se apoyaron no solo en los testimonios de la víctima, sino también las pericias médicas y psicológicas para dar sus dictámenes; una sentencia, debido al tiempo transcurrido la valoración pericial médica perdió su valor jurídico, en otra la pericia médica no fue descrita en la sentencia. En la presente investigación se concluye que las valoraciones periciales son de gran importancia en primer lugar para las víctimas, cuya finalidad radica en el ejercicio pleno de sus derechos y garantías, de igual manera se determina la importancia de estas como apoyo al juez para la toma de decisiones en los casos de delitos sexuales.

KRAGUJEVAC I ŠUMADIJA 1914. g. U BELEŠKAMA ANE MIHALDžIĆ

Published: September 2023

Memoirs, diaries, autobiographical notes, and sketches are of immeasurable importan- ce to historical science. Despite the obvious and understandable subjectivity of the authors of such works and their relative factual value, these writings preserved many details, unknown and valuable, not mentioned in official acts. The period's atmosphere, its customs, and menta- lity of the people were retained in these writings from the point of view of those who witnessed and participated in it. Ana Mihaldžić's notes have brought us closer to Kragujevac and Šuma- dija from more than a century ago, with their immediacy and authenticity, as well as literary skills worthy of envy.

Authors: Uddin Md. Kutub , Hossain H. M. Mosarof , Rahman Mushfiqur
Published: September 2023

The financial sector of the country is mostly comprised of banking institutions; those are leading the economy with great exposure with the contribution to the development process. However, the banking sector of Bangladesh is disturbed by the large-scale amount of non-performing loans while has become an essential part of the finance of the industries. As part of the measurement of credit risk and macro factors average lending rate, inflation, NPL size, capital adequacy ratio, liquidity ratio have been selected to test the influence on the financial performance found through the return on asset of the selected banks. To conduct the study 9 banks of three generations have been selected for the period of 2016 to 2022. Robust least square method of regression and error correction term have been run to oversee the real impact on financial performance while endogenity and random walk in the values are being considered to overcome through a dynamic regression model. NPL has a negative impact on the performance and average lending rate, inflation, liquidity ratio and capital adequacy ratio bring a positive impact on the financial performance of the banks. Breusch-Pagan LM test confirms that cross-sectional dependency exists and VAR serial correlation test finds autocorrelation in the data set. The policy implication of this study suggests that the high NPL ratio must be reduced and CAR and LR must be improved to get the desired results of the performance. Strong fiscal and banking regulation should implement so that governance can be ensured to create responsibility and financial strength.
