Title of the Abstract- Ayurvedic management of Ischemic optic neuropathy W.S.R Abhighataja Linganash- A case report Background- Ischemic optic neuropathy (ION) is sight threatning condition resulting from inadequate blood supply to the optic nerve. In Ayurveda, this condition can be correlated to Abhighataja Linganash, caused by vitiation of vata and pitta dosha due to head trauma. The present case highlights the successful Ayurvedic management of ION through Jalaukavacharan, internal ayurvedic medications and Padaabhyanga. Objectives- To evaluate the effectiveness of Ayurvedic interventions in case of post traumatic ION (Abhighataja Linganash). Methods- A 23 year old female presented with complaints of headache, ocular pain in left eye, diminished vision of left eye and colour confusion following head trauma. Based on clinical presentation, the case was diagnosed as ION (Abhighataj Linganash). Management included local therapy, Jalaukavacharan for dushta pitta shaman and pain relief as mentioned in Sushruta Samhita uttartantra and padabhyanga to improve drushti to promote vata anulomana. Internal medications including ayurvedic formulation for vata pitta shaman and rakta prasadana. Treatment was administered for 30 days with regular follow-up. Results- The patient showed significant improvement in visual acuity and complete relief in ocular pain, headache and colour confusion. No recurrence of symptoms was observed during follow up. Conclusion- The combination of Jalaukavachrana , internal ayurvedic medications and padabhyanga proved effective in restoring visual function and alleviating associated symptoms in case of ION (Abhighataja Linganash)

 Abstract

Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer among women worldwide and remains a major public health challenge due to its high incidence, mortality, and socioeconomic burden. Breast cancer is the leading cancer among women in most countries and continues to contribute substantially to cancer-related morbidity and mortality despite advances in screening, diagnosis, and treatment. The global burden is expected to increase further, with projections indicating that annual breast cancer cases may exceed 3.5 million and deaths may surpass 1.1 million by 2050, largely due to population growth, ageing, and changing lifestyle patterns. The purpose of the study is to assess the knowledge on Breast Self Examination among selected women in Aizawl, Mizoram with a view to develop a Planned Teaching Programme.

 Abstract

Minimizing power consumption is a primary concern in modern VLSI design. This research presents a Low-Power Tunable ALU Architecture that integrates clock gating, Parallel-In Parallel-Out (PIPO) shift registers, and Booth's algorithm. By employing an opcode-driven 4:16 decoder, specific operations are activated while inactive blocks remain idle, significantly reducing dynamic switching power. The design evaluates four distinct clock gating techniques implemented on a Virtex-6 FPGA using 40nm CMOS technology. Experimental results demonstrate substantial power savings and thermal stability without compromising computational performance.

 Abstract

Digital Signal Processing (DSP) applications demand high-speed and energy-efficient arithmetic units, particularly for multiplication-intensive operations such as Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) and Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT). Conventional multiplier architectures often suffer from increased delay, power consumption, and hardware complexity. This work presents an optimized design of a floating-point fused dot product (FDP) unit using a Vedic multiplier integrated with Adaptive Hold Logic (AHL) and Razor flip-flops. The proposed architecture is implemented on an FPGA platform and evaluated in terms of delay, power, and area. Results demonstrate a significant reduction in latency and hardware utilization compared to conventional designs, making the proposed system suitable for modern high-performance DSP applications.

 Abstract

Anukta Vyadhi refers to disease conditions that are not explicitly described with a specific name, symptom, or treatment protocol in the classical Ayurvedic Samhitas. The term "Anukta" means unsaid, unuttered, or undocumented, while "Vyadhi" means disease. These conditions are encountered in clinical practice despite lacking direct textual references. Modern lifestyle disorders, environmental diseases, and conditions not prevalent during ancient times may be understood under the concept of Anukta Vyadhi. Examples include hypothyroidism, hypertension, cancers, and nutritional deficiencies. Ayurveda provides fundamental principles for understanding, diagnosing, and treating such diseases through the assessment of Dosha, Dushya, Agni, Srotas, Adhishthana, and Samprapti. Thus, knowledge of Anukta Vyadhi is essential for the application of Ayurvedic principles in contemporary clinical practice.

 Abstract

This paper evaluates the feasibility of a curated, try-at-home fashion service within the Indian e-commerce market, analyzed through the lenses of entrepreneurship and innovation theory. The business model addresses a pervasive industry pain point (25% to 40% of online apparel purchases are returned due to fit and tactile uncertainty) by delivering five stylist-selected outfits to consumers, who pay only for what they keep. Utilizing a qualitative research design built on secondary data (including peer-reviewed literature, corporate filings, industry reports, and market press), the study evaluates the venture against frameworks of opportunity recognition, business model innovation, and lean experimentation. The analysis yields three primary insights: the Indian fashion market is large and expanding rapidly; the core consumer problem remains acutely underserved; and the global competitive landscape is shifting following the retrenchment of major players, highlighted by the closure of Amazon's "Try Before You Buy" service in January 2025 and the contraction of Stitch Fix. Furthermore, an indicative unit-economic model demonstrates that positive order-level contribution margins are achievable, provided that keep-rates and reverse-logistics costs are tightly controlled. The paper concludes that while the venture is strategically viable, its operational feasibility is strictly conditional upon mitigating keep-rate volatility, reverse-logistics expenses, and cash-on-delivery (COD) risks. Finally, a primary research framework is proposed to empirically validate consumer willingness-to-try and keep-rate assumptions prior to market entry.

Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM) is a chronic autoimmune condition characterized by progressive destruction of pancreatic beta cells leading to absolute insulin deficiency. Conventional management relies entirely on exogenous insulin, with no established cure. Ayurveda classifies this condition under Sahaja Prameha or Madhumeha, offering a distinct pathophysiological framework and therapeutic approach.

 Abstract

We are living in a transitory era where we are witnessing the transition from keypad phones to technology boom and artificial intelligence revolution. Artificial intelligence has deeply embedded in contemporary social, educational and professional environments. This rapid integration of artificial intelligence has definitely helped to increase the work productivity at all levels but over dependence on it is also raising concerns about the gradual erosion of cognitive abilities of human beings. We have seen a global prevalence of digital addiction. As per the statistics, around 27% of world's population is suffering from smartphone addiction. This has significantly been increased after Covid-19 era. Usage of smartphone is anyway associated with psychological symptoms of stress, anxiety, depression, insomnia or what not. Along with this addiction we are heavily relying on artificial intelligence not for entertainment only but for every task i.e. from getting factual information to getting creative ideas; which is definitely leading to cognitive offloading but we need to be aware that this cognitive offloading doesn't turn our cognitive abilities to diminishing side. Given the addiction statistics, we are just a step away from entering the era of cognitive gyms. This paper introduces the concept of "Cognitive Gyms", which are structured environments designed to actively engage and strengthen mental faculties through exercises that promote reasoning, memory, creativity, and focus. This paper argues that Cognitive Gyms can function as individual as well as institutional interventions that encourage deliberate cognitive practice, independent reasoning, critical thinking and balanced AI use. Interventions like cognitive gyms are becoming the need of the hour because this is a pre-emptive solution where we all will be able to use artificial intelligence for our benefits along with preserving our essential human intellectual capabilities.

 Abstract

This paper investigates the romantic sensibilities of Sylvia Plath through a thematic analysis of her journal. While Plath is popularly associated with the Confessional movement of the 20th century, her journal entries reveal an intentional, sophisticated engagement with the 19th century Romantic tradition. This paper argues that her journal entries embody the core tenets of romanticism as expressed in the works of Wordsworth, Coleridge, and Keats, specifically the preeminence of subjective experience, the transcendental elevation of nature, and the transmutation of the mundane into sublime. She believed in the transformative power of Romantic vitalism- the vibrancy and spirit of transcendental living. This paper also investigates the strategic use of pathetic fallacy, where she constantly tries to project her inner sanctum onto the physical world around her including the natural landscape. The physical world becomes a mirror of her psyche. Plath metaphorically transfigures the mundane and systematically elevates it to the level of the sublime. This paper concludes that Plath's journal entries are not merely prosaic records of her life, rather they serve as a rigorous literary testament to her romantic sensibilities.
