Published: December 2022

The importance of plant-derived mediators (phyto-therapy) and used as aphrodisiacs has been known since ancient times also here, in Romania, as substances that increase both sexual performance and fertility, within practices useful to the human body. As the author specified, the Amazonian forest (jungle) constitutes the most bio-diverse phyto-therapeutic ecosystem on the planet, with forty thousand species of plants and over 3000 types of rare and exotic fruits, which may treat not only sexual dysfunctions (which is the article’s subject of interest) but also helps to treat chronic diseases, some of them very serious.
Konfigurasi Filantropi Islam Dalam Tradisi Maulid Nabi SAW Di Bawean
Authors: Hafidz Abdul
Published: December 2022

AbstrakPenelitian ini mengkaji tentang konfigurasi filantropi Islam dalam tradisi Maulid Nabi SAW di Pulau Bawean. Penelitian ini adalah penelitian kualitatif deskriptif dengan menggunakan teori gift exchange yang dikembangkan oleh Marcell Mouss. Dari teori tersebut dapat disimpulkan bahwa tradisi maulid Nabi SAW di Bawean merupakan salah satu bentuk ekspresi kegembiraan masyarakat atas dilahirkannya Rasulullah SAW. Kegembiraan tersebut diinterpretasikan dalam bentuk social giving yang berupa pertukaran angka’an bherkat antar sesama warga. Di samping itu, masyarakat Bawean mengumpulkan dana filantropi Islam dalam bentuk bendera maulid untuk didistribusikan kepada Lembaga penyelenggara maulid, sehingga dana filantropi tersebut menjadi salah satu sumber pendapatan Lembaga untuk memenuhi kebutuhannya. Tradisi maulid Nabi SAW ini tidak hanya dilakukan satu kali saja, namun berulangkali. Setiap Lembaga atau komunitas mengadakan acara maulid. Hal ini menunjukkan bahwa Gerakan filantropi berbasis agama memiliki kekuatan yang lebih besar dibandingkan lainnya, sebab yang mereka harapkan tidak hanya sekedar materi, namun ada kekuatan iman, cinta, dan pahala yang menjadi harapan terbesar dari semua tindakannya
Studi Komparatif Hukum Islam Dan Hukum Positif Tentang Tindak Pidana Korupsi Di Indonesia
Authors: Syafi’i Imam , Solihin Mohamad
Published: December 2022

Dalam konteks negara Indonesia –negara hukum yang tidak menerapkan hukum Islam-, peraturan-peraturannya dikenal dengan istilah hukum Positif (al-Qonūn al-Wadh`iy). Dimana undang-undang atau peraturan untuk mengatur pergaulan hidup bermasyarakat yang diputuskan dan ditetapkan oleh pemerintah. Dari sini, hukum Positif merupakan produk (hasil pemikiran) manusia untuk sekedar memenuhi kebutuhan mereka yang bersifat temporal dan kasuistik. Tujuannya tak lain biar nuansa kehidupan ini senantiasa harmoni. Beda halnya dengan hukum syar`i, dia datang dari syari` dengan perantara al-Qur`an dan al-Hadist untuk merealisasikan kemashlahatan umat manusia sepanjang masa. Penelitian ini mengkaji tentang tindak pidana korupsi di indonesia perspektif hukum islam dan hukum positif. Hukum positif memandang bahwa Sanksi tindak kriminal korupsi adalah dengan mengekang kemerdekaan pelaku, namun tidak dimaksudkan untuk menderitakan dan merendahkan martabat manusia. Sanksi disini adalah sanksi fisik berupa kurungan penjara dan sanksi materi berupa denda, Sanksi tersebut diharapkan dapat menjerakan sekaligus mendidik pelaku. Hukum islam memandang bahwa Sanksi tindak kriminal korupsi adalah ta'zir, dimana pemberian sanksi disesuaikan terhadap tingkat kriminal yang dilakukan, sikologis pelaku dan lingkungannya, dengan bentuk dan jenis sanksi yang dapat menjerakan pelaku dan mendidik pelaku serta masyarakat lain untuk tidak melakukan kriminal tersebut. Dan termasuk model sanksi dalam hukum islam adalah penjara dan denda.

Authors: Ayu Riskiana Dinda
Published: December 2022

Penelitian ini mengkaji tuduhan zina melalui meme di media sosial. Ini sangat penting dikaji karena perkembangan teknologi informasi yang begitu meningkat. Termasuk meme, meme merupakan fenomena baru dikalangan penggunanya. Meme dalam bentuk video atau gambar dimaknai sebagai ide, prilaku atau gaya yang menyebar dari orang perorang melalui media sosial karena sifatnya lucu, mengandung parodi dan satire. Namun bisa menimbulkan problem dimana menganggap segalanya dapat dijadikan candaan dan tujuannya menyudutkan orang lain. Akibatnya masyarakat mudah terkena hasutan, hoax semakin menyeruak hingga ujaran kebencian dan pembunuhan karakter. Maka perlunya pemaknaan yang mendalam terhadap kajian Islam, khususnya fiqh kontemporer dalam kasus ini. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui bagaimana landasan konseptual dugaan zina melalui meme di media sosial. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian deskriptif kualitatif dengan pendekatan etnografi virtual. Etnografi virtual digunakan untuk melihat fenomena visual atau kultur pengguna di cyber space. Data berupa postingan meme dan komentar pengguna terhadap postingan tersebut di akun instagram, dan studi literatur. Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa tuduhan zina melalui meme di media sosial tidak dapat di pidana dengan hukuman hadd melainkan dengan hukuman jarimah ta’zir.

Prediction at the intersection of sentence context and word form: Evidence from eye-movements and self-paced reading
Authors: Amenta Simona , Hasenäcker Jana , Crepaldi Davide , Marelli Marco
Published: December 2022

A key issue in language processing is how we recognize and understand words in sentences. Research on sentence reading indicates that the time we need to read a word depends on how (un)expected it is. Research on single word recognition shows that each word also has its own recognition dynamics based on the relation between its orthographic form and its meaning. It is not clear, however, how these sentence-level and word-level dynamics interact. In the present study, we examine the joint impact of these sources of information during sentence reading. We analyze existing eye-tracking and self-paced reading data (Frank et al., 2013, Behavior Research Methods, 45[4], 1182–1190) to investigate the interplay of sentence-level prediction (operationalized as Surprisal) and word Orthography-Semantics Consistency in activating word meaning in sentence processing. Results indicate that both Surprisal and Orthography-Semantics Consistency exert an influence on several reading measures. The shape of the observed interaction differs, but the results give compelling indication for a general trade-off between expectations based on sentence context and cues to meaning from word orthography.

SPATIOTEMPORAL ANALYSIS FOR FIGHTING COVID-19 IN IRAQ
Authors: Al-Bakri Maythm
Published: December 2022

At the end of 2019, a new form of Coronavirus (later dubbed COVID-19) emerged in China and quickly spread to other regions of the globe. Despite the virus’s unique and unknown characteristics, it is a widely distributed infectious illness. Finding the geographical distribution of the virus transmission is therefore critical for epidemiologists and governments in order to respond to the illness epidemic rapidly and effectively. Understanding the dynamics of COVID-19’s spatial distribution can help to understand the pandemic’s scope and effects, as well as decision-making, planning, and community action aimed at preventing transmission. The main focus of this study is to investigate the geographic patterns of COVID-19 dissemination in Iraq from May 1 to July 29, 2021. The analysis was primarily based on using spatial analysis tools such as standard deviational ellipse (SDE) with in GIS environment, in addition to incidence rates calculations. The results revealed that the direction of COVID-19 spread is NW-SE. Furthermore, the findings showed that the rate of COVID-19 infections is greater at the middle and south of Iraq. This may aid decision-makers in identifying priority areas for emergency efforts.
Radio Observations of Four Active Galactic Nuclei Hosting Intermediate-mass Black Hole Candidates: Studying the Outflow Activity and Evolution

Published: December 2022

Observational searches for intermediate-mass black holes (IMBHs; 102–106
M
⊙) include relatively isolated dwarf galaxies. For those that host active galactic nuclei (AGNs), the IMBH nature may be discerned through the accretion–jet activity. We present radio observations of four AGN-hosting dwarf galaxies, which potentially harbor IMBHs. Very large array (VLA) observations indicate steep spectra (indices of −0.63 to −1.05) between 1.4 and 9 GHz. However, a comparison with the 9 GHz in-band spectral index shows a steepening for GH047 and GH158 (implying older/relic emission) and flattening for GH106 and GH163 (implying recent activity). Overlapping emission regions in the VLA 1.4 GHz and our very long baseline array (VLBA) 1.5 GHz observations, and possibly symmetric pc-scale extensions, are consistent with recent activity in the latter two. Using the compact VLBA radio luminosity, X-ray luminosity (probing the accretion activity), and the black hole masses, all AGNs are found to lie on the empirical fundamental plane relation. The four AGNs are radio-quiet with relatively higher Eddington ratios (0.04–0.32) and resemble X-ray binaries during spectral state transitions that entail an outflow ejection. Furthermore, the radio to X-ray luminosity ratio

of −3.9 to −5.6 in these four sources support the scenarios that include corona mass ejection from the accretion disk and wind activity. The growth to kpc-scales likely proceeds along a similar trajectory to young AGNs and peaked spectrum sources. These complex clues can thus aid in the detection and monitoring of IMBHs in the nearby universe.

The effects on target catch, bycatch and discard of using multifilament and monofilament sardon on the trammel nets in the Black Sea small scale fisheries
Authors: Aksu Hakan , Erdem Yakup , Özdemir Süleyman
Published: December 2022

Background. In the Sinop region, many species are caught as non-targets during the target species catching with gill nets. Sardon was used to prevent the bottom creatures (crabs, snails, etc.) climbing these nets used on the ground from climbing. This study was carried out in 13 fishing operations in the inner harbor area of Sinop, from September through November of 2004. Trammel nets were used, which has 32 mm mesh size and target fish species of the fishing gear is red mullet (Mullus barbatus) in the study.

Materials and methods. Three net groups were used in the experiments, without sardon (A0) for the control net, multifilament with sardon (A1) and monofilament with sardon (A2) respectively.

Results. 65.3% Osteichthyes fish (696 specimens), 16.8% Mollusca (179 specimens), 16.4% was arthropoda (175 specimens) and 1.5% was Chondrichthyes fish (16 specimens) of catch obtained from the operations were form. A total 124 specimens as the target species (red mullet), 398 specimens as bycatch species, and 544 specimens as discarded species were captured sea trials. Catch ratio of A0, A1 and A2 nets were determined 51.88%, 21.58% and 26.55% respectively. 48.38% of the target species, 30.40% of the bycatches and 57.53% of the discarded catch were caught by the A0 net. 25.81% of the target species, 45.23% of the bycatches, and 18.57% of the discard catch were caught with A1 net. 25.81% of the target species, 24.37% of the bycatch and 24.37% of the discarded catch were caught by the A2 net.

Conclusions. The results showed that the use of sardon on trammel nets in the Black Sea coastal fisheries caused a slight decrease in target fish catch, but significantly decreased the amount of discarded catch.

Authors: Rittle Chad , Walter Lora
Published: December 2022

When the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines were announced in December 2020 the world was excited that a vaccine was available to combat the coronavirus pandemic. One of the most frequent comments was a desire to wait because the vaccine technology was “so new.” This article will concentrate on the mRNA vaccines not familiar to the public and is intended to explain the developmental timeline before and after the genome of COVID-19 was announced. We discuss Operation Warp Speed and SARS-CoV-2 and specifically the development of Messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccines and concurrent other types of vaccines. Other topics of discussion include COVID-19 variants; effectiveness of mRNA vaccines; and late news about the Pfizer-BioNTech® COVID-19 vaccine. The article conclusion discusses implications for nurses as they continue to follow future developments, become competent in communicating viral epidemiology, and educate patients and families about vaccine options.
Multiple solutions to the double phase problems involving concave-convex nonlinearities
Authors: Kim Jae-Myoung , Kim Yun-Ho
Published: December 2022

This paper is concerned with several existence results of multiple solutions for Schrödinger-type problems involving the double phase operator for the case of a combined effect of concave-convex nonlinearities. The first one is to discuss that our problem has infinitely many large energy solutions. Second, we obtain the existence of a sequence of infinitely many small energy solutions to the given problem. To establish such multiplicity results, we employ the fountain theorem and the dual fountain theorem as the primary tools, respectively. In particular we give the existence result of small energy solutions on a new class of nonlinear term.

Published: December 2022

Cancer is a disease that causes abnormal cell formation and spreads throughout the body, causing harm to other organs. Breast cancer is the most common kind among many of cancers worldwide. Breast cancer affects women due to hormonal changes or genetic mutations in DNA. Breast cancer is one of the primary causes of cancer worldwide and the second biggest cause of cancer-related deaths in women. Metastasis development is primarily linked to mortality. Therefore, it is crucial for public health that the mechanisms involved in metastasis formation are identified. Pollution and the chemical environment are among the risk factors that are being indicated as impacting the signaling pathways involved in the construction and growth of metastatic tumor cells. Due to the high risk of mortality of breast cancer, breast cancer is potentially fatal, more research is required to tackle the deadliest disease. We considered different drug structures as chemical graphs in this research and computed the partition dimension. This can help to understand the chemical structure of various cancer drugs and develop formulation more efficiently.

Contribution of Outdoor Play Activities to Infant and Toddler Development
Authors: Atli Sibel , Baran Gülen
Published: December 2022

The natural environment has generally a structure to support all areas of development of children. It can be said that the interior spaces are deprived of naturalness and have less stimulation compared to outdoor spaces. Playgrounds outdoors have forms, textures, heights, and mobility in a natural or artificial landscape have the energy to encourage children to play and move. The first years of the early childhood period are of a vital importance in terms of all areas of development. Pedagogues or parents should provide the activities and environments that will enable the infants and toddlers to get pleasure out of life and that can create a learning skill and give new skills to the children at same time. Therefore, in this study, outdoor and outdoor play activities that will support the development areas of 0-36-month-old children will be discussed.

Technology and Teachers in the Preschool Period
Authors: Aral Neriman , Kadan Gül
Published: December 2022

The teachers' use of technology, as well as their behaviors and attitudes, become important as they are second only to the parents in shaping children's futures. Although the teachers' attitudes and behaviors are important in every stage of the children, they are crucial in the preschool period. It is even more important for the teachers who have this awareness to shape and construct their behaviors and attitudes accordingly in order to invest in a better future. With this in mind, the aim is to explain the technology in the preschool period, the levels of teachers' use of technology, their views on technology, and their responsibilities in the use of technology in the preschool period.
A Systematic Review of the Use of Prompting for Preschoolers With Developmental Delay
Authors: Seok Soonhwa , DaCosta Boaventura
Published: December 2022

Preschool offers numerous opportunities for teaching cognitive, social, emotional, and language skills. This is particularly important for children with developmental delay (DD), who often struggle with cognitive, physical, communication, social/emotional, and adaptive development. Prompting using verbal, gestural, and physical guidance has been widely used to teach new behaviors or skills. Given the importance of early childhood education, this systematic review examined the effect of prompting in the acquisition of new skills for preschoolers with DD. Fourteen studies using single-subject research design across nine journals served as the basis of this review. Participants' demographics, experimental design, target skills, types of prompting, independent and dependent variables, degree to which the prompting was effective, pairing, and number of prompts used in an intervention were extracted from each study and analyzed. The findings revealed the importance of prompting, and its various forms, for children with DD to support their strengths and enhance targeted skills as needed.
What Matters?
Authors: Hu Aihua
Published: December 2022

This chapter uses a case study to explore Chinese primary school teachers' perspectives on students' overall performance in their transition to primary school and what has been and can be done to make the transition experience better for all children. Open-ended questionnaires, documents, and interviews are the major data sources triangulated by observations, photos of the school environment, and displays of activities. Both quantitative and qualitative content analysis are utilized to analyze the collected data. Findings indicate that children's emotional, interpersonal, intrapersonal, and behavioral as well as preschool academic skills matter in transition. Learning habits and self-care abilities are especially identified as what most children lack and the important aspects they need to be equipped with. Besides individual skills, involvement and collaboration of the significant institutions, namely kindergartens, families, and their primary schools, are of great importance. While identifying good practices, the responding teachers also offer suggestions for improvement.
Choosing Culturally, Linguistically, and Cognitively Distance Learning Platforms
Authors: Terlop Rachel E. , Vargas-Ewing James
Published: December 2022

Upon completion of their educator preparation program, a study done by Archambault found that teachers felt most prepared in the areas of pedagogy, content, and pedagogical content. However, the same teachers reported feeling least prepared in the areas of technology and technology integration. With instruction shifting to an online space during COVID-19, the consideration of how to teach virtually was no longer abstract. This chapter highlights the journey of a teacher working to find supportive technology for their class, evaluating existing resources, connecting the tools to teaching standards, and ensuring platforms are inclusive and relevant for the culturally, linguistically, and cognitively diverse (CLCD) learners who utilize augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) devices. This chapter is rooted in early childhood education, social constructivism, and disability critical race theory (DisCrit) and seeks to serve as a critical guide, or model, for intentional and inclusive educators, researchers, practitioners, and learners.
Leadership and Stakeholder Involvement in Creating a Non-Violent Early Childhood Development (ECD) School Environment in South Africa
Authors: Modise Matshediso Rebecca
Published: December 2022

This chapter seeks to consider strategies and means that early childhood development (ECD) leadership in South Africa can use to create a non-violent environment at ECD centers and in the foundation phase in primary schools. In South Africa, ECD is defined as a term indicating the procedures under which children from birth to nine years of age grow and flourish emotionally, morally, socially, physically, and spiritually. The chapter focuses on Pre-Grade 1 to Grade 3 environments. It also addresses the roles that relevant stakeholders can play in support of school leadership in the creation of a violent-free environment. The research is guided by Bronfenbrenner's ecological systems theory. Since early childhood is a sensitive and impressionable stage in children's lives, a living, supportive atmosphere as well as an enabling social setting is essential to ensure their complete development. This requires the involvement of all stakeholders (school governing bodies), especially members of the schools' leadership teams in considering policy.

O general e sua escrita: Resquín e sua Guerra del Paraguay.
Authors: Leite Eudes Fernando
Published: December 2022

Este artigo trata da escrita do militar Francisco Isidoro Resquín, cuja trajetória no Exército paraguaio foi marcada por vários encargos. “La Guerra del Paraguay contra La Triple Alianza” (1875), livro no qual narra suas memórias e destaca os diversos eventos dos quais participou é objeto e uma das fontes aqui discutido, com a finalidade de compreender a formulação explicativa e justificadora da ação do General Resquín, após o fim da Guerra. Considerando a bibliografia especializada sobre a Guerra, associada à outras fontes, é possível perceber o protagonismo de Resquín no conflito, particularmente na organização das punições contra prisioneiros de guerra. A escrita do livro visou salvaguardar a imagem do autor, ao mesmo tempo em que buscou justificar o conflito. Francisco Resquín foi personagem complexa e mal alocada entre os chamados heróis paraguaios da Guerra contra a Tríplice Aliança e seu livro aqui considerado, inclusive em sua estrutura interna, se tornou um registro importante para perceber as relações internas nas forças paraguaias.

Domingos da Silva de Oliveira, um escravizado do Sertão dos Inhamuns condenado pela Inquisição de Lisboa
Authors: Teixeira da Silva Amanda
Published: December 2022

O objetivo deste artigo é investigar o processo de Domingos da Silva de Oliveira, um escravizado do Sertão dos Inhamuns condenado pela Inquisição de Lisboa por ter utilizado uma hóstia consagrada na confecção de um patuá. A pesquisa possibilita conhecer, em certa medida, a trajetória de um homem de ascendência africana que, nascido no Brasil, percorreu diversas cidades do sertão norte antes de ser remetido para os cárceres de Lisboa. Além disso, permite observar intensa relação entre as práticas religiosas dos escravizados e os trânsitos e intercâmbios culturais que realizaram nos territórios brasileiros.
EXPERIENCIAS COMUNITARIAS, CRIANZAS COMPARTIDAS Y POLÍTICAS DE CUIDADO
Authors: Parra Marcela Alejandra
Published: December 2022

En el presente artículo, escrito en el contexto de la pandemia 2020-2021 y en el marco del cumplimento del Aislamiento Social Preventivo y Obligatorio (ASPO), analizamos dos experiencias comunitarias vinculadas al cuidado de las infancias y adolescencias que se desarrollan en las provincias de Neuquén y Río Negro (Patagonia Argentina). Dicho análisis es resultado de una investigación cualitativa realizada desde la perspectiva de la Psicología Social Crítica y las Políticas Públicas en la que buscamos recuperar los saberes sociales que estas iniciativas comunitarias pueden aportar al diseño y reformulación de las políticas públicas de cuidado. Específicamente, las experiencias que aquí presentamos son: la Asociación Civil GAIA-Nueva Crianza, conformada por familias de niñes y adolescentes trans; y la Asociación Civil Lazos Azules, integrada por familias de niños y adolescentes con TEA (Trastorno del Espectro Autista). Si bien las dos asociaciones son muy diferentes entre sí, ambas coinciden en estar protagonizadas por familias que, a partir de haber escuchado y prestado atención a las necesidades de sus hijo/a/es, se organizaron colectivamente para visibilizar la realidad de sus niño/a/es y adolescentes generando distintas acciones. Dichas acciones tienden no sólo a hacer efectivos los derechos de las infancias y adolescencias, especialmente aquellos vinculados a la identidad, la educación y la salud, sino que están orientadas a incidir en las políticas públicas de cuidado a nivel local desde lo que Boaventura de Sousa Santos denomina la sociología de las emergencias y desde lo que Rita Segato designa como una politicidad en clave femenina anfibia.
Exploring factors associated with uremic pruritus
Authors: Wu Chiu-Feng , Hsiao Ya-Chu , Yeh Tzu-Pei , Hung Peir-Haur , Chen Haiag-Chun , Tsai Ru-Yin , Li Chen-Pi
Published: December 2022

Background:

Uremic pruritus not only directly affects patients’ health but also may reduce their quality of life. Few studies have examined the factors associated with pruritus disturbance among patients on hemodialysis.

Objectives:

This study aimed to compare the differences between patients on hemodialysis with and without uremic pruritus and explore the factors associated with uremic pruritus.

Methods:

A cross-sectional correlational design with convenience sampling was used in this study. Patients on hemodialysis in a regional hospital in southern Taiwan were recruited. A self-administered questionnaire was used, and some serum biochemistry data were collected from medical records. Research tools, including demographic characteristic form, pruritus visual analog scale (pruritus VAS), and the 5-D itch scale, were used. Multiple regression analysis was performed to explore the factors related to pruritus disturbance.

Results:

A total of 361 patients were included in this study. Most of the participants (n = 283, 78.4%) had pruritus. The two groups of patients with and without pruritus were different in diabetes status and creatinine and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels. The mean score of pruritus VAS was 5.0 in participants with pruritus, indicating that their pruritus was moderate. The level of pruritus disturbance was moderate to low (mean = 10.56), and “pruritus-affected sleep” possessed the highest score. Patients with higher CRP and pruritus gave higher scores for pruritus disturbance. Primary disease, heparin use, serum albumin, calcium, creatinine, blood urea nitrogen, CRP, and subjective pruritus severity could significantly predict disturbance from pruritus (R2
= 28.5%, P < 0.05). Maintaining serum biochemistry such as CRP within the normal range may reduce pruritus feeling.

Conclusion:

Patients’ serum biochemistry is related to uremic pruritus. Health-care professionals should regularly assess patients’ CRP and patients’ self-evaluation of itching so that disturbances from pruritus can be detected earlier and the possible factors can be found and treated. These strategies may provide appropriate care and maintain the patients’ quality of life.

Published: December 2022

Introduction:

Physical fitness is a state of health and well-being and more specifically, the ability to perform the aspects of sports, occupations, and daily activities. A higher fitness level indicates a better long-term effect of health. Physical fitness is generally achieved through a proper nutrition, moderate physical exercise, hygiene, and sufficient rest. Considering the nutritional aspect of physical fitness, supplements are required to bridge the nutritional gap due to busy work schedule and faulty food habits. Hence, a health supplement is the need for the hour which is tasty, will meet the daily requirements, and provide optimum nutrients for improving the physical fitness.

Materials and Methods:

Ashwagandhadi granules, formulated with a combination of food and Rasayana dravyas, consisting of Ashwagandha (Withania
somnifera), Shatavari (Asparagus
racemosus), Ragi (Eleusine
coracana), Mudga (Vigna
radiata), Jeeraka (E.
coracana), and Shunti (Zingiber
officinale), can be a promising health supplement. An open-label double-arm control clinical study with convenient sampling and modified wait-listed crossover design was conducted among 23 individuals. While in the study group, they were administered with 20 g of Ashwagandhadi granules with 150 ml milk for a month.

Results:

The result revealed a statistically significant change in the Harvard Step Score and VO2 max (z = 3.83, P < 0.001).

Conclusion:

The administration of Ashwagandhadi granules has a statistically significant effect on physical fitness.
