 Abstract

In the contemporary world, children are increasingly influenced by technology which leads to a phenomenon often termed as 'digital addiction'. This paper presents an in-depth review of the impact of children's digital addiction on their lifestyle as well as their academic performance. It scrutinizes various studies from different parts of the world. It concludes on how excessive screen time such as encompassing social media, gaming, and other digital activities affects the various facets of children's lifestyle and academic performance. It examines the lifestyle changes associated with digital addiction. It depicts how prolonged and excessive digital engagement disrupts sleep patterns, reduces physical activity, promotes unhealthy lifestyle practices, results in poor academic performance, and impairs social interactions, contributing to a sedentary lifestyle and potential mental health issues such as anxiety and depression. This shows that excessive digital engagement affects the holistic well-being of children, as most of their personal growth is limited to the screen. In addition, this paper also explores the mechanisms through which digital addiction impairs cognitive functions necessary for learning, memory retention, critical thinking capacities, and classroom distractions as well as their ability to concentrate. By integrating findings from diverse sources from different areas and perspectives, this paper provides a comprehensive understanding of how digital addiction reshapes children's daily lives and educational accomplishments. It concludes with recommendations for parents, educators, and policymakers to limit engagement and mitigate the negative impacts of digital addiction by emphasizing the need for balanced digital engagement and promoting healthy lifestyle patterns.

 Abstract

Aim of The Study The study mainly aims to compare treatment persistence, adherence, and risk of exacerbation among patients with COPD treated with single-inhaler therapy (SIT) versus multiple-inhaler therapy (MIT). Methods It is a prospective observational study which was conducted in Government General Hospital, Kurnool district in the department of pulmonary medicine. Methodology includes the patient data collection form, and different scales like MMAS, mMRC, CAT, PFTs, are included to know the level of severity of the disease. Results Total 150 cases are collected among them 30 were lost during follow up. In this study it shown that there were more males (80%), when compared to female (20%). The Age group between 56-65 years are mostly affected to COPD. Among 120 patients smoking contributes 47.5% followed by occupational exposure 46.6%. During first visit the adherence rate is very low i.e., 85.83% and after follow there is an increased adherence is seen. The mMRC grade, CAT Scores and PFT shows the significant improvement in the severity of the disease condition during follow up when compared with first visit. There was more improvement seen in single inhaler users when compared to multiple inhaler users. Conclusion This study shows that there is a significant relation between the medication adherence and improvement in disease condition. This study concludes that, either use of single and multiple inhalers there is an effective response. But when compared with multiple inhaler users have lesser response when compared to single inhaler users.

 Abstract

the analysis of fly-ash aerated concrete particles added to BAF is the main topic of this work. The superiority of organic removing bacteria in biological film on the packing materials surface during the early stage of start-up is demonstrated by the comparative examination of the removal rates of COD and NH3-N during the start-up period. The comparative analysis of the removal rate of COD and NH3-N under the conditions of BAF operation in different gas-water ratios, hydraulic loading rates, and organic loads concludes that nitrobacterium becomes the primary ingredient of biological film after gradually maturing and surpassing organic removing bacteria during the BAF operation period. It also concludes that the nitrobacterium biological film is easily attached to the surface of fly-ash aerated concrete particles.

This paper explores the concept of Ecohumanism in the poetry of two prominent literary figures: William Wordsworth, an English Romantic poet, and Rabindranath Tagore, the renowned Indian poet, philosopher, and Nobel laureate. Ecohumanism, as an interdisciplinary approach, emphasizes the interconnection between humans and nature, integrating human values with ecological perspectives. The paper analyses selected poems by both poets to examine how their works express this synergy between nature and humanity. The discussion will focus on the representation of nature in their poetry, the human-nature relationship, and the overarching philosophical implications of Ecohumanism. Through a comparative study, this paper aims to highlight the shared and divergent views between the two poets on ecological and humanistic concerns, emphasizing their contributions to the discourse on the environment, nature, and human existence.

The Ashta Ahara Vidhi Vishesh Ayatana is a fundamental concept in Ayurveda that highlights eight essential factors influencing dietary habits and their impact on overall health. These factors--Prakriti (nature of food), Karana (processing methods), Samyoga (food combinations), Rashi (quantity), Desha (place of consumption), Kala (timing and season), Upayoga Samstha (rules of eating), and Upabhokta (individual constitution)--offer a comprehensive approach to nutrition that aligns with both physiological and psychological well-being. By meticulously considering these principles, Ayurveda provides a personalized dietary framework that promotes digestion, assimilation, and longevity. This paper explores each of these eight factors in detail, drawing insights from classical Ayurvedic texts such as Charaka Samhita and Sushruta Samhita. Additionally, it examines their relevance in modern dietary practices, emphasizing how these ancient principles can be adapted to contemporary lifestyles. With increasing concerns over lifestyle disorders, improper eating habits, and digestive health issues, the Ashta Ahara Vidhi Vishesh Ayatana serves as a timeless guide to mindful eating and holistic wellness. Understanding and implementing these guidelines can help individuals cultivate a balanced diet, enhance metabolic function, and maintain overall health in today's fast-paced world.
