 Abstract

This research paper aims to shed light on orphans in India's child psychology and psychosocial well-being and to investigate the psychosocial problems of orphans. This paper deals with the current condition of orphans globally and in India. The study also presents data on Indian orphans, facilitating a better understanding of the various provisions outlined in statutory laws. The paper employed a correlational design and examined the extent to which four components of quality of care (including food security, quality of shelter, quality of caregiving, and access to health care services) predicted the psychological and social well-being of orphan children as well as it moderated the association between alternative care and the psychological well-being of orphans. Considering the results, it was recommended that stakeholders, teachers and caregivers should establish a support system at different levels and play a major role in fulfilling the psychosocial needs of orphan children.

 Abstract

Pakshaghat is made up of two words Paksha (half part of body) and Aghat (loss of function). Ayurved literature is full of textual references where Pakshaghat is described extensively. It is considered as Vata Dosha predominant Vyadhi. Patient usually presents with loss of function of a half of body or weakness of one half. Face may or may not be involved. Prognosis depends on many factors including Vaya, Bala, Dosha involvement etc. In modern science all the motor activities are controlled by brain. Cerebrovascular accidents are mainly responsible for loss of function in body and due to maximal similarity they can be correlated with Pakshaghat. In modern science there is usually treatment of symptoms but when it comes to Ayurveda there is treatment of root cause along with symptoms. In Ayurveda, treatment of diseases is divided in to two parts Samshodhana and Samshamana. Panchkarma is Shodhana Pradhana therapy, which includes five major procedures for Shodhana of body. Along with it there are many allied processes which help in symptomatic relief by directly acting on the part being affected. Pakshaghat is best treated with Mridu Samshodhana and Vata Shamaak Snehana Chikitsa. In the present case patient presented with right side Pakshaghat and treated with Panchakarma therapy, which included Nasya, Vasti and Akshitarpana. Initially Nasya and Akshitarpana given for 15 days. Patient was called for second sitting after 16 days and given in Kala Vasti Karma. After treatment patient was 100% cured.

 Abstract

- Ischemic stroke, a leading cause of disability and mortality worldwide, demands swift and accurate diagnosis for effective treatment. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is pivotal in diagnosing ischemic strokes due to its high-resolution depiction of brain tissue abnormalities. Leveraging the capabilities of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), this study proposes a novel approach for ischemic stroke identification in MRI brain images. The proposed method involves pre-processing MRI scans to enhance image quality and extract relevant features. Subsequently, a CNN classifier is trained on a dataset comprising a diverse range of ischemic stroke patterns. The CNN model learns to distinguish between normal brain tissue and regions affected by ischemic strokes by capturing subtle image features indicative of stroke pathology. Experimental evaluation demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed CNN-based approach in accurately identifying ischemic strokes from MRI brain images. The model achieves high accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity in stroke detection, surpassing existing methods. Moreover, the proposed method exhibits robustness across different MRI scanners and imaging protocols, highlighting its potential for clinical deployment. This research contributes to the advancement of automated ischemic stroke detection, facilitating prompt diagnosis and timely intervention. The proposed CNN-based approach holds promise for enhancing stroke management strategies, leading to improved patient outcomes and reduced healthcare burden. Further refinement and validation of the model in real-world clinical settings are warranted to realize its full potential in routine ischemic stroke diagnosis

 Abstract

Autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC) blocks are widely used everywhere in present-day building construction. They are known for their lightweight nature and excellent thermal insulation properties. It's made of quartz sand, calcined gypsum, lime, Portland cement, water, and aluminum powder. They are also available in different sizes for various applications and can be easily shaped or cut to fit specific requirements. During the construction of the wall, many times, a part of the AAC block (called the bat) remains behind, and this bat will not be used in further work if it is not suitable or does not fit at that place. Instead, it will be discarded, and it is waste material. Also, during transportation as well as in the handling process, AAC blocks are getting wasted. They are not being utilized efficiently, resulting in unnecessary waste. The waste AAC blocks may not be suitable for land filling purposes due to their relatively low load-bearing capacity. It also has a significant negative impact on the environment due to its high energy consumption during the manufacturing process and waste generation. Therefore, it is important to find ways to the utilization of waste AAC blocks. In this present research work, we discuss the potential methods and strategies for maximizing the use of waste AAC blocks and promoting recycling or repurposing of unused materials. Specifically, we explore various techniques for reusing waste AAC blocks in construction projects and investigate the feasibility of incorporating them into new building construction material. A study was conducted on AAC block waste as sand replacement material in mortar mix with replacement percentages of 25%, 50%, and 100%. The compressive strength test was conducted in this study on the specimens.
