ABSTRACT: Aim and Objective: The aim and objective of the study was to see the effect of shatkriyas and micro exercises on eyesight of screen users. Methodology: The students who frequently use digital screen, mobiles, tablet, computers were purposively selected, those who were having eyesight problems from various schools of sakti district, chhattisgarh. Out of them, 20 students age ranging between 14-19 years were randomly selected as the subjects for the study. Shatkriyas and micro exercises were selected as independent variables. Whereas eyesight/eye vision of screen users were selected as the dependent variables. Pre-test post-test randomized group design was employed in the study. The participants' overall both eye checkup was done by using anterior segment test with the help of slit lamp tools/machine. The participants' manual data of myopia and shot-sightedness (-) minus sign was collected by using snellen's chart tools/machine (subjective test). The data were collected twice, once before the yoga training as pre data and one after the yoga training as post data from both the groups. The shatkriyas and micro exercises group was administered yoga training for eight weeks while control group have not participated in any kind of yoga training. Descriptive statistics were used to describe the nature and characteristics of the data. Analysis of Co-variance (ANCOVA) was applied to see the significant difference between both the groups on eyesight and level of significance was set at 0.05. Conclusion: It was concluded that a significant difference was found between both the groups for both right and left eyesight. A significant effect of yoga training on eyesight was found.

 Abstract

In June 2020, the Pradhan Mantri Street Vendors Atma Nirbhar Nidhi (PM SVANidhi) initiative was introduced with the goal of supporting street vendors' socioeconomic empowerment and offering financial aid, particularly in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. This study looks at street vendors' knowledge of and use of the PM SVANidhi initiative in the Karnataka region of Mangalore City Corporation (MCC). The study used qualitative research methods to collect data, such as field surveys with a sample of 55 respondents who chose to make a living from street vending in the study region and personal observation. Through surveys and interviews with street vendors, the study reveals disparities in awareness, obstacles to the program, and how the loans affect their ability to make a living. According to the findings, although government and bank awareness activities have resulted in modest scheme adoption, many vendors continue to encounter obstacles such restricted access to digital payment platforms, banking services, and information. The paper also explains how the program has aided vendors in adopting digital payments, improving cash flow, and stabilizing their entities. However, obstacles to full usage still exist in the form of documentation, loan repayment plans, and technological adaptability. In order to guarantee the program's long-term viability and inclusivity in Mangalore, the study ends with suggestions for improving outreach, streamlining processes, and offering improved assistance for digital literacy.

Abstract This research delves into the adoption of FinTech services and their impact on sustainable banking practices within the Coimbatore region of Tamil Nadu. The study investigates the multifaceted dynamics of FinTech adoption, drawing insights from user perceptions, actual usage patterns, and demographic factors. A comprehensive analysis utilizing statistical methods including correlation matrices and Multivariate Analysis of Variance (MANOVA) has revealed significant findings. The Coimbatore region is experiencing a surge in FinTech adoption, largely propelled by user experiences characterized by perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness. These factors are interconnected, driving individuals who find FinTech services easy to use to also perceive them as highly useful, resulting in increased engagement. However, demographic attributes, such as age, income, and education, play modest roles in shaping FinTech adoption patterns, underlining the need for a nuanced approach that considers both user experience and individual characteristics. Beyond adoption, our study illuminates the transformative potential of FinTech in promoting sustainable banking practices. Actively engaged FinTech users are more inclined to adopt sustainable financial behaviors, such as digital financial management and eco-conscious investments. This underscores the opportunity for financial institutions and policymakers to harness FinTech's potential in advancing financial inclusion and environmentally responsible financial practices. This research contributes to the evolving narrative of FinTech's role in shaping the future of banking while advocating for the alignment of technology-driven financial innovation with sustainable, inclusive, and equitable banking practices within the Coimbatore region.

 Abstract

Ketoprofen is the most widely used non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) which comes under BCS Class II, making it effective for relieving pain and inflammation. However, despite its therapeutic benefits, Ketoprofen has low aqueous solubility, which significantly hinders its oral bioavailability. This limitation highlights the need for innovative strategies to improve its absorption in the body. One promising approach involves forming cyclodextrin inclusion complexes, which act as a specialized delivery system for drugs with poor solubility. In our study, we focused on synthesizing Ketoprofen/ ?- ?-cyclodextrin inclusion complexes using microwave irradiation, with molar ratios of 1:1 and 1:2. The main goal of our research is to investigate how these ?-cyclodextrin complexes affect the solubility and bioavailability of Ketoprofen. To thoroughly evaluate the effectiveness of this novel system, we will examine various parameters, including the percentage of practical yield. This will be carried out using exacting laboratory techniques such as in-vitro drug dissolution investigations, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). We will also assess drug content uniformity to ensure a comprehensive analysis of how these complexes enhance the properties of ketoprofen.

 Abstract

Difficult-to-treat antibiotic-resistant infections are on the rise and are a global health problem. Molecular Mechanisms Antibiotic-resistant bacteria are essential to finding ways to avoid the conditions that promote persistent bacteria. The aim of this workshop is to examine the genetics of the molecular mechanisms of antibiotic resistance and to define the intrinsic, acquired, and environmental resistance to antibiotics that block different bacteria and the phenotypic response defined by the protocol that provides the antibiotic. This defense mechanism allows bacteria with this mechanism to survive and even actively grow in the presence of antibiotics. In addition, some different viruses have developed mechanisms to resist various drugs, making it difficult to target these viruses with treatments for common viruses, resulting in patient infection. Understanding the molecular mechanisms of the immune system is important for developing new strategies to overcome and prevent immune problems. Research on the development and prevention process must be understood in the early stages of drug development and ideas for developing antibiotics or improving access to antibiotics in the workplace.
