An alternate approach for the systemic availability of medications restricted to intravenous administration is nasal drug administration. Large surface area, porous endothelium membrane, high total blood flow, lack of first-pass metabolism, and easy accessibility are the causes of this. A useful long-term therapeutic option to parenteral medication is the nasal route. Because the nasal mucosa is so porous and highly vascularized, it absorbs substances quickly and acts quickly. Since the medication enters the bloodstream immediately through the nasal route, it is a non-invasive, often utilised local therapeutic method that can also be utilised for systemic therapy. Small chemicals are better absorbed through the nasal route than large molecules, which can be enhanced by absorption promoters. This article discusses techniques to increase bioavailability and provides an overview of intranasal drug administration, including factors affecting nasal absorption.

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is the ethical behaviour of business organisations/companies for the upliftment and welfare of society. The core issue of CSR activity is "doing good to do well" and "society at large should be served". Its motto is "Bahumukhi Vikas" (multi-dimensional development)-- underscoring people, planet and profit. For the sustainability of a state/community, CSR funding is significant and pivotal. Bihar, situated in the eastern part of India, is the third most populous state. It has an ancient and rich history. But with regard to CSR activities, the low CSR funding in the state and the lack of corporate investment are significant problems as well as vital hindrances in improving the lives of the people. In the above context, the present study intends to draw attention towards this major problem and emphasises the point that enhanced CSR funding can help improve the lives of the people of the state. This study has also attempted to conceptualise CSR, compare CSR funding in Bihar with other states, plead for the equitable distribution of CSR funds and suggest measures to attract CSR funding in the state of Bihar.

In the contemporary landscape of the Indian banking sector, this research delves into the intricate intersection of banking laws and social welfare schemes, offering a comprehensive exploration of legal structures and their impact on the vast and diverse Indian society. With India positioned as the second most populous country globally, housing approximately 1.35 billion people as of 2021, and covering only 2.4% of the world's surface area, the complexity of its social fabric necessitates a meticulous legal examination. Against the backdrop of a developing economy where 60 to 70 percent of the population depends on agriculture, the study emphasizes the significance of understanding the social dynamics of India. With 29 states, numerous languages, and diverse geographical regions, the country epitomizes the principle of "Unity in Diversity." This research scrutinizes the historical evolution of laws from ancient times, tracing the transition from a monarchic legal system to the present constitutional framework. The historical trajectory of Indian banking, rooted in ancient practices such as money lending found in Vedas, is succinctly explored. The study encapsulates the development of banks during the English period, marked by the establishment of the Presidency Banks and their amalgamation into the Imperial Bank. Post-independence, the nationalization of banks, including the transformation of the Imperial Bank into the State Bank of India in 1955, is scrutinized. The research delves into the pivotal role of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) since its inception in 1935, gaining prominence through the Reserve Bank of India Act, 1934. The study examines the legislative milestones, notably the Banking Companies Act, 1949, later termed the Banking Regulation Act, 1966, which conferred significant powers upon the RBI, regulating licensing, liquidity, expansion, and managerial aspects of banks. In addition to the historical exploration, this research critically assesses contemporary issues and lacunae within the banking sector, offering legal insights and potential solutions. By incorporating scholarly research and legal reasoning, the study aims to provide a nuanced understanding of the current scenario in the Indian banking sector, considering both its historical evolution and present operational dynamics.

Vehicle detection through satellite video imagery has witnessed remarkable advancements, revolutionizing remote sensing and Earth observation. In this survey research, we explore the latest methodologies, approaches, and innovations in satellite video-based moving vehicle detection, with a special focus on the Semantic-Embedded Density Adaptive Network (SEDAN) architecture. Satellite videos provide an unparalleled perspective of Earth's surface, enabling us to grasp dynamic events and human activities. However, discerning moving vehicles within these videos presents significant challenges, including low image quality, varying lighting conditions, and diverse backgrounds. Traditional handcrafted features and shallow learning algorithms often fall short in delivering robust results under such circumstances. In response, deep learning-based solutions have emerged, with the SEDAN framework emerging as a promising approach. Drawing insights from a meticulous review of 22 papers, this survey research delivers a comprehensive overview of vehicle detection using satellite video data, highlighting the transformative potential of satellite technology in remote sensing and its crucial applications in various domains, including disaster management, traffic monitoring, and national security.

The human body is rather like a highly technical and sophisticated machine. It operates as a single entity, but is made up of a number of systems that works inter- dependently. The skeletal system (bones and joints) works interdependently with the skeletal muscle system and provides basic functions that are essential to life such as it protects the brain and internal organs, maintains upright posture, blood cell formation, mineral homeostasis, stores fat and minerals. Inappropriate functioning of the metabolic processes results in disorders manifested by changes in both physical and chemical structure of the bone. Bone mass changes in a person's life time can be categorized into three phases - Growth, Consolidation and Involution. Peak bone mass is accumulated in the growth phase, about 90% of ultimate bone mass is deposited in the space this is followed by consolidation which lasts for 15 years. The involution starts between ages 35-40 years in both sexes, with acceleration of bone loss within a decade after menopause in women. The prevalence of osteoporosis and low bone mass is expected to increase worldwide with increased aging of the population. Across the globe, the number of individuals aged 50 years and greater is expected to increase nearly fivefold by the year 2050, from 323 million to 1.55 billion. Methods; An experimental study was conducted among 60 post-operative patients who were selected by us Non probability convenient sampling technique was adopted to select the samples. Video assisted teaching in Adichunchanagiri hospital & research centre B.G Nagara. The study setting is selected because of availability of the samples, feasibility of conducting study and geographical proximity.

Background India is home to 2.1 million HIV patients. Stigma and depressive morbidity related to HIV infection has serious individual and public health ramifications. With this background in mind the present study aimed at assessing the level of depression and stigma in People Living with HIV/AIDS (PLHA). Materials and methods A cross sectional study was conducted over a period of four weeks among 148 PLHA, who consented to be part of the study and were selected by Stratified random sampling. Perceived stigma and depression was assessed among study subjects using the standardized Berger stigma scale and BDI II. Pearson correlation and Chi square test were used to assess the relation between depression and stigma and the association of study variables with demographic variables. Data was analyzed using SPSS version 23 software. Results The majority of the study population had moderate to severe levels of depression and experienced severe levels of stigma in all the domains (>90%). The mean scores, 64.99 + 6.8 revealed that public attitude was most predominant type of stigma. A positive correlation existed between depression and all stigma domains. Depression was associated with socioeconomic status, whereas stigma was found to be associated with age, marital status, socioeconomic status and presence of children. Discussion Most of the PLHA attending the ART centers had severe levels of depression and stigma. Depression was also found to be positively correlated with stigma. Thus high prevalence of depression and stigma underscores the need for screening of PLHA for the same, to achieve better health outcome.
