 Abstract

This research aims to highlight the importance in the revenue history of India and the Madras revenue system. In the first place it was in Madras that the Rayatwari method of settlement as a system under the government originated in the next place, the history of Madras Presidency throws great light on the constitution of villages and the early customs of landholding which are really at the bottom of all revenue systems. The British was fully established in South India by the beginning of the 19th century. During the early years of that rule there was little to choose between English administration and native princess so far as the agricultural classes were concerned. The ill-paid English writers and actors who carried on extensive trade on their own found themselves suddenly transformed into governors of provinces and they behaved as worst oppressors of people than most of the local rulers. But after the Cornwallis' reforms the condition had improved much. Administrators like Reade, Munro, Graham and Thackray helped the pacification of the country by the suppression of the poligars who, with large bands of armed followers, plundered the country. The Ryotwari settlement was first tried in Baramahal in the 1790's after third Mysore War by Captain Alexander Read. Subsequently his assistants, such men as Thomas Munro and John Maclod extended the system to the ceded districts, Coimbatore and the whole of the Carnatic. It was an agreement made directly between the government and the ryots or "Cultivators" of land, to the complete exclusion of intermediaries. Under this agreement the government usually sought to receive its due in the form of money value fixed upon the actual fields under cultivation.

 Abstract

Any material intended for application to the human body or any portion of it, by means of rubbing, pouring, sprinkling, spraying, injecting, or any other method, with the intention of enhancing, improving, cleansing, or altering appearance, is referred to as "cosmetics". In the last several years, there has been a rise in the use of natural and sustainable ingredients in cosmetic formulations. Date seeds are a by-product of processing date fruit, and interest in their potential health and cosmetic uses has been piqued by their antioxidant, vitamin, and mineral content. The aim was to develop an eyeshadow that had a silky texture, vibrant colour payoff, and health benefits. By varying the concentrations of jojoba oil, arrowroot powder, and zinc stearate, we produced 12 distinct formulations. A series of evaluation tests, such as fineness, drop test, fall out, colour payoff, spreadability, irritancy, and organoleptic evaluation, are next used to the generated compositions. It was found that the formulas F5, F6, F7, and F8 had a high spreadability, strong colour payoff, a lovely texture, and a reasonable pH. The resultant mixture, which has the nutritional advantages of date seeds such as their ability to protect skin from UV rays, moisturize, nourish, and soothing effect can be used as an eyeshadow.

 Abstract

Bedaquiline, a novel diarylquinoline, has emerged as a beacon of hope in the battle against drug-resistant tuberculosis (TB). This review explores the journey of bedaquiline from its discovery to its current role in therapy, highlighting its mechanism of action, pharmacokinetics, efficacy, and safety profile. The rising global burden of multidrug-resistant TB (MDR-TB) and extensively drug-resistant TB (XDR-TB) underscores the urgent need for effective treatments. Bedaquiline, approved by the FDA in 2012, represents a paradigm shift with its ability to target the mycobacterial ATP synthase, essential for bacterial energy production. Clinical trials have demonstrated its superiority in improving treatment outcomes when included in regimens for MDR-TB and XDR-TB. However, challenges remain, including concerns over cardiac safety and the optimal integration of bedaquiline into existing treatment protocols. This review synthesizes current evidence and discusses future directions for optimizing the use of bedaquiline to combat TB drug resistance globally.

 Abstract

This study explores how machine learning techniques can classify text data as either human-written or AI-generated. The research uses a dataset containing 6,000 texts, evenly split between human and AI-generated samples. Key objectives include preprocessing the data, conducting exploratory data analysis (EDA), training models, and thorough evaluation. Text data underwent detailed preprocessing steps such as tokenization, removal of stop words and punctuation, and lemmatization. EDA revealed insights into distributions of text lengths and labels, highlighting significant differences between human and AI-generated texts. Two models, Naive Bayes and Logistic Regression, were trained on the processed dataset. Logistic Regression outperformed with 98% accuracy on a separate test set. Metrics for AI-generated texts showed precision, recall, and F1-score at 98%, 95%, and 97%, respectively, showcasing its strong ability to distinguish between human and AI-generated content. The results emphasize the effectiveness of advanced text preprocessing and machine learning models in accurately identifying text origins. Logistic Regression emerged as the preferred model due to its high accuracy and comprehensive performance metrics, making it a dependable tool for distinguishing between human and AI-generated content across various applications.

 Abstract

A survey was made on the farmers' rice fields to study the insect pests and their natural enemy complex in rice ecosystem of eastern Vidarbha of Maharashtra, India. In both kharif (wet) and rabi (dry) seasons a pest complex of 23 insect pests belonging to 7 orders and 14 families was recorded and identified. Of all these, 4 pest species viz., yellow stem borer, Scirpophaga incertulus (Walker), leaf folder, Cnaphalocrocis medinalis (Guen.), brown planthopper, Nilaparvata lugens (Stal.) and whitebacked planthopper, Sogatela furcifera (Horvath) were infesting rice crop very commonly and thus representing major pest status. The incidence of S. incertulus in the rabi season was much higher than that of the kharif season. The peak density of C. medinalis in the kharif season was much higher than that of the rabi season. The incidence of N. lugens and S. furcifera during rabi season were much lower as compared to the kharif season. The infestation of S. furcifera was noticed at an early stage of the crop growth whereas the BPH appeared in appreciable number at the grain filling stage of crop causing heavy loss. About 11 parasitoids and 23 predatory insects and spiders were active and effectively regulating the populations of all the four major pests. Among the parasitic wasps Apantales spp., Trichomma cnaphalocrosis, Ophius spp. and Temelucha spp. appeared frequently in the rice fields and out of 23 predators, dragonflies, damselfly, Agriocnemis femina, lady bird beetles, Micraspis discolor and Hormonia octamaculata, rove beetle, Paederus fuscipes and ground beetle, Ophionia indica were found to be abundantly predating on immature and mature stages of major and minor pests. Among the 4 species of spiders recorded as non-insect predators, L. pseudoannulata was found to be predominant species predating on all types of pests. The abundance of dragonflies, lady bird beetle, M. discolor and rove beetle, P. fuscipes was more in rabi than in kharif season whereas spiders and ground beetle, C. indica were dominant during kharif season. The findings of present study may help in Integrated Pest Management technique to control the major insect pests of rice ecosystem.

ABSTRACT o Background: Stroke is the second largest cause of death in middle-to-high-income nations and the main cause of acquired physical disability in people globally. It is a significant global health problem and a major cause of mortality and morbidity in developed countries, and increasingly in low-middle income countries. Many stroke survivors experience the incapacitating feeling of fatigue, which is a predictor of death following stroke start. Post stroke fatigue is one of the common complications, with prevalence of 16-74%. Post stroke fatigue is multidimensional motor-perceptive, emotional and cognitive experience that effects the activities of daily living. It presents itself as lack of energy, helplessness and excessive burn out. It may be the reason for depression. It is different from the normal fatigue which ameliorates on rest. This type of fatigue persists even after neurological recovery in stroke patients. The PSF is associated with functional deficits and participation restrictions in the activities of daily living (ADL) and leads to a lower quality of life. o Purpose: To study the effects of vestibular rehabilitation on post stroke fatigue and quality of life. o Methodology: Participants were briefed about the nature of the study and the intervention. Their informed written consent was taken. 30 participants were selected based on the selection criteria. Prior and after the treatment the outcome measures that is Fatigue severity scale and Stroke specific quality of life scale were taken. Intervention protocol was given for 1 hour, 3times a week for 8 weeks. o Result: The p-value after paired t tests in both groups is less than 0.05 which indicates the strong evidence that there is a significant difference between the pre-test and post-test scores of fatigue and quality of life in stroke patients after vestibular rehabilitation. o Conclusion: The present study concluded that there is significant improvement in post stroke fatigue and quality of life in stroke patients after vestibular rehabilitation
