 Abstract

The Gir region, situated in Gujarat, India, is well-known for its diverse ecosystems, particularly as the final sanctuary of the Asiatic lion. Nevertheless, the region is encountering difficulties due to climate change and the growing number of tourists. This study seeks to explore the geographical impacts of climate change on the Gir region and examine the role of tourism in exacerbating these effects. By conducting extensive fieldwork, analyzing data, and thoroughly reviewing existing literature, this research uncovers significant environmental changes, evaluates the vulnerability of the region's biodiversity, and assesses the sustainability of current tourism practices. The findings underscore the importance of implementing comprehensive management strategies that consider the preservation of the environment and the socioeconomic advantages of tourism. This paper explores the relationship between climate change and tourism in Gujarat's Gir region, known as the habitat of Asiatic lions' last remaining wild population. The study delves into the intricate relationship between climate patterns, the local ecosystem, wildlife, and tourism. It aims to understand the effects of shifting climate patterns on these interconnected elements and the subsequent implications for tourism. In addition, it delves into how the rise in tourism impacts the environment in the region.

 Abstract

Many dialects of Arabic apply affrication to their velar stops. This phenomenon has been the focus of substantial research for over a century now. The focus of this paper is to examine the optional, selective affrication in Qassimi Arabic and attempt to account for the factors that seem to be involved in enabling or preventing the process. Although there has not been research, particularly on affrication in Qassimi Arabic, there is a substantial body of literature on affrication in various Arabic dialects, which is relevant after all. The literature indicates some factors that are examined in the current paper to see their applicability in Qassimi Arabic. I also develop an Optimality-theoretic analysis for this phenomenon to attempt to capture the variation in a principled fashion. While developing the analysis, some unpredicted facts are observed and taken into account. Finally, the analysis introduced in this paper intersects with other phenomena like co-articulation and emphatic spread.

 Abstract

Peptic ulcer disease (PUD) remains an important gastrointestinal disorder that is characterised by ulcers in the stomach or duodenum that extend into the mucosa and the underlying layers. The previous few decades have seen a significant shift in the etiology. While H. pylori infection was historically the leading cause, regular use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), like aspirin and other anti- platelets have been recognised predominant cause of PUD in current therapeutic practice. The treatments primarily focus on eradication of H. pylori and reducing the gastric acid secretion with proton pump inhibitors, H2 antagonist and using mucosal protective agents like misoprostol particularly for NSAIDs induced ulcers. Traditional oral medication administration often shows limited therapeutic efficacy due to rapid gastric emptying and short residence time, resulting lower concentration at target site. Floating tablets as gastroretentive system has emerged as promising approach of enhancing gastric retention thus improving bioavailability. The tablets are designed to stay afloat in the stomach juice for extended periods, providing delayed release of medication and prolonged therapeutic action directly at the site of ulceration. The various formulation approaches involved in floating tablets are effervescent and non-effervescent systems, by employing different polymers like HPMC, ethyl cellulose, Carbopol desired buoyancy and prolong drug release can be achieved. This formulation approaches offers a number of benefits, including enhanced patient compliance, reduce systemic side effects and enhanced protection of gastric mucosa through sustain local action.

 Abstract

India, a country of rich culture, tradition, and brotherhood, stands as a shining example of unity in diversity on the global stage. The historical India was filled with strong religious beliefs and complex social structures. The caste system played a cruel and crucial role in differentiating and segregating the society based on the work they do. This system made the so called marginalized community to be under the clutches of the so called upper class people. The history of India witnessed immense violence and atrocities against Scheduled Caste people, with discrimination spanning from their clothing to the food they consumed, forcing them into unequal treatment compared to upper-caste communities. Furthermore, they were forced into generational servitude, working as unpaid laborers in the houses of upper castes. They were prone to humiliation by the society from the history to till date. However, it is believed that the Dalit's humiliation in India is no more in the society because of the constitution of India that guarantees different fundamental freedoms but in reality new methods continued to humiliate Dalit's through various social media platforms. This article explores the reality of how caste hatred is being fostered by digital and social media, as well as the regulations that are in place to safeguard Dalit's.

Cosmetovigilance is a rapidly expanding area of research under pharmacovigilance in India. This study analyses the cosmetic consumption practices and associated adverse drug reactions reported by particulars. According to the US Food and Drug Administration's (FDA), cosmetics are defined as 'article for beautification, cleansing or altering physical appearance' (U.S. Food and Drug Administration, 2018). The consumption of personal care products (PCP) has been rising for quite a while in passing decades which something has to do with physical appearance in the community globally which directly gave rise to emergent of cosmetic industries. Their continuous exposure could lead to significant accumulation in the body and for several adverse health outcomes which can appear as redness, scales and blisters, marking to no visible changes whereas major manifestation can range up to loss of hair, fragile nails and contact dermatitis. Data suggest hair dye is one of the leading causes for contact dermatitis in India. Counterfeit cosmetics is fraudulent or imitation beauty products that are designed to mimic genuine and reputable brands. These counterfeit products are often produced and distributed without the authorization or approval of either original brand or regulatory bodies. Impurities such as high level of heavy metals (lead, cobalt cadmium, mercury and aluminums) are reported in many cosmetics products (lipstick, lip glosses, eye shadow and hair dye) while they pose peculiar health threats like hand dermatitis, asthma and infertility, which is common among hair and saloon technicians.

 Abstract

Children are influenced by their experiences. The present study explores the role of hands-on experiences and creative activities in the holistic development and overall well-being of children. Activities like storytelling, role play, art and craft, group games, and practical life tasks provide opportunities to children to express themselves, collaborate with peers, and develop holistically. Such practices help in nurturing Emotional Intelligence and build confidence. These learning experiences encourage imagination, discipline, teamwork, and respect for others. Implementing such experiential methods in educational environments contribute significantly to inclusive and participatory learning. The present study emphasizes the need of integrating creative and skill-based learning opportunities in the Education system so that children are prepared to face the challenges of life.
