Abstract Joint hypermobility refers to the ability of joints to move beyond the normal expected range and is influenced by soft tissue elasticity, muscle tone, bone structure, and joint health. Although joint hypermobility is common, it is often under-recognized in clinical settings. Individuals with generalized joint hypermobility may experience joint instability, musculoskeletal pain, fatigue, functional limitations, and psychological distress, which can affect overall quality of life. The present study aimed to assess the impact of joint hypermobility on quality of life and psychological well-being among paramedical staff and students at Uka Tarsadia University. An observational cross-sectional study was conducted among nursing and physiotherapy students and staff. A total sample of 355 participants was included using convenient sampling. Joint hypermobility was assessed using the Beighton Scale, quality of life using the Short Form-36 (SF-36), and psychological well-being using the Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7). The results demonstrated that participants with joint hypermobility had lower quality-of-life scores and higher anxiety scores compared to non-hypermobile participants. Nursing students showed a greater prevalence of hypermobility and poorer outcomes than physiotherapy students. Female participants also demonstrated lower quality-of-life scores and higher anxiety levels than males. The study concludes that joint hypermobility has a negative impact on both physical and psychological well-being in paramedical students and staff, highlighting the need for early screening, targeted interventions, and supportive strategies within educational institutions.

 Abstract

The growing adoption of photovoltaic (PV) systems requires intelligent monitoring methods to ensure efficient operation and early detection of performance degradation. Digital Twin technology offers a virtual model that replicates the behavior of a physical energy system using real-time operational data. This study presents a digital twin framework for photovoltaic systems that integrates machine learning techniques to estimate power generation and identify abnormal operating conditions. Environmental variables such as solar irradiance, module temperature, voltage, and current are utilized to train predictive models including Random Forest and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks. The virtual model continuously evaluates system behavior by comparing predicted output with measured PV performance. Significant deviations between the predicted and actual values indicate potential faults or efficiency losses. The results indicate that combining machine learning algorithms with digital twin modeling improves prediction capability and supports proactive maintenance of solar energy systems. The proposed framework can assist in enhancing reliability and operational efficiency of PV installations and may contribute to smarter renewable energy management in future power systems.

 Abstract

In the socio-economically complex district of Keonjhar, Odisha, approximately 44% of youth report significant mental health distress, exacerbated by the stressors of a mining-heavy landscape. This research evaluates Project Jibana Ullasa, an intervention across 19 PM-SHRI schools that integrates Social, Emotional, and Ethical (SEE) Learning with Physical Literacy (PL). Using a mixed-methods approach, the study analyzed data from 38 nodal educators. Quantitative results showed a 19.6% increase in trauma-informed pedagogical awareness and a 13.16 percentage point gain in Physical Literacy conceptual clarity. Qualitatively, the shift from "Received Knowledge" to "Embodied Understanding" was evidenced by the implementation of SEEL Corners and Gratitude Boxes. While interpersonal empathy improved, a 30.4% decline in systemic responsibility scores identifies a critical "Systems Thinking" gap. The study provides a scalable blueprint for operationalizing India's National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 in marginalized contexts.

 Abstract

The Grant of Darjeeling became a major juncture in the history of Darjeeling. The arrival of missionaries and the development of Darjeeling as an important centre for education in the Eastern Himalayas is a stimulating topic to read. Darjeeling stood as a gateway to Nepal, Bhutan, and Sikkim, and it is the closest hill station to the capital, Calcutta. Consequently, it got early exposure to Education. The Charter Act of 1813 and Wood's Despatch of1854 played an important role in introducing Western education in the hills. In the light of Western education, schools such as Loreto Convent, St. Paul's School, the Scottish Universities Mission Institution, and many other premium institutions in Darjeeling were established. The paper elucidates the evolution and contributions of various missionary and philanthropic groups that devoted their energies and wealth to building Darjeeling as an educational hub. It also delved into the post independence progression and the reaction of the hills and Terai people of the Darjeeling district. In short, the study focuses on the formalization of Education during and after the colonial period in Darjeeling Himalaya.

 Abstract

The assumption about the role of financial literacy in promoting financial and psychological well-being is widely accepted, but empirical evidence is still theory-based and mostly assumes the direct-effect relationship. This paper constructs and validates a structural model whose process-based structure is based on the roles of financial literacy in modifying financial well-being based on a parallel psychological and behavioral mechanism. Based on the Social Cognitive Theory and behavioral finance views, financial self-efficacy and risk tolerance are conceptualized as mediating factors between financial literacy and financial well-being and later lead to mental well-being. The information was gathered on 323 professionals in the private sector in Gujarat, India, and analyzed via partial least squares structural equation modelling. Findings suggest that financial literacy has a great effect on financial self-efficacy and risk tolerance. Financial self-efficacy and risk tolerance are both predictors of financial well-being which in turn improves mental well-being. Interestingly, the direct impact of financial literacy on financial well-being is considerable in comparison to the positive impact by the financial literacy on financial self-efficacy, which indicates inconsistent mediation effects. This interruption process implies that more financial knowledge can initially lead to increased awareness of financial restraints, but carried as self-confidence, the results become positive to well-being. The model proves to be highly explanatory and predictive of the outcomes of both financial and mental well-being. This research proposes more discrete mechanisms of psychological and behavioral conversion by challenging the current assumption of standard positive effects of direct literacy and developing a more sophisticated theoretical explanation of the influence of financial capability in an emergent economy setting.

 Abstract

Abstract Hypertension is a major public health problem worldwide and is one of the leading risk factors for cardiovascular diseases, stroke, and kidney disorders. Increased Body Mass Index (BMI) has been identified as a significant modifiable risk factor contributing to the development and progression of hypertension. Excess body weight leads to physiological changes such as increased sympathetic nervous system activity, insulin resistance, and sodium retention, which ultimately result in elevated blood pressure. The present study was conducted to assess the association between Body Mass Index and hypertension among hypertensive patients and to prepare an information booklet on the prevention of complications among these patients. A descriptive cross-sectional research design was adopted for the study. The study was conducted among 100 hypertensive patients selected through a convenience sampling technique from selected hospitals and community areas. Data were collected using a structured tool consisting of demographic variables, measurement of height and weight to calculate BMI, and blood pressure measurement using a sphygmomanometer. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics (frequency, percentage, mean, and standard deviation) and inferential statistics such as the Chi-square test to determine the association between BMI and hypertension. The findings of the study revealed that a large proportion of hypertensive patients were overweight or obese according to BMI classification. Patients with higher BMI levels were more likely to have higher blood pressure levels compared to those with normal BMI. Statistical analysis showed a significant association between Body Mass Index and hypertension. The study concluded that increased BMI is an important risk factor for hypertension and its complications. Based on the findings, an information booklet was developed to educate hypertensive patients about lifestyle modifications and preventive measures such as weight management, balanced diet, regular physical activity, and adherence to treatment. Educational interventions can play a vital role in improving patient awareness and preventing hypertension-related complications.
