Exploring the Impact of Over-The-Counter OTC Medication on Mental Health Syndrome

Tamanna — 2024-11-30

: OTC drugs are medications available without a doctor’s prescription and are frequently employed in the self-treatment of several conditions. However, their use in treating conditions such as mental health syndromes is questionable in terms of advantages and disadvantages. Plant preparations, such as St. John’s Wort, Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, antihistamines, and melatonin can be effective in the treatment of some mild depressive, anxiety, sleep disorder, or mood disorder symptoms. However, they do not replace the need for professional health services or medications prescribed for complicated diseases. Some of these drugs include interventions where symptoms are still not complicated, the use of these medications is easy, and patients can deal with the symptoms by themselves. In contrast, ailments such as accident abuse, failure to track the state of affairs, use of incompatible medicines, and aggravation of psychopathic symptoms point out the space where the challenges of self-treatment lie. This binary nature strengthens the need for caution, assurance of doctors, and understanding the limits of OTC drugs in mental health care.

“EVALUATING THE IMPACT OF NEP 2020 ON ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE, COGNITIVE DEVELOPMENT, AND STAKEHOLDER ENGAGEMENT: CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES”

Dr. Santosh Kumar Singh and Mr. Pravendra Dixit — 2024-11-30

The National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 aims to revolutionize India's education system by promoting holistic development, enhancing cognitive skills, and improving stakeholder participation in the educational process. The study aims to assess the impact of NEP 2020 on three key areas: academic performance, cognitive development, and engagement of various stakeholders, including students, teachers, and parents. Through a structured survey of 200 respondents, this research examines the extent to which the NEP 2020 reforms have impacted students' academic outcomes and cognitive abilities such as critical thinking, problem-solving, and creativity. The study also explores how teacher training, resource availability, and stakeholder perceptions shape the effectiveness of these reforms. By analyzing the collected data using descriptive statistics and chi-square tests, the study provides empirical insights into the challenges and successes of implementing NEP 2020. The findings highlight that NEP 2020 has the potential to enhance educational outcomes; its success depends on overcoming implementation challenges such as inadequate resources, limited teacher preparedness, and differing perceptions among stakeholders

Hydrocyanic Acid in Cynodon dactylon: Analyzing Its Prevalence and Effects in Shahjahanpur's Ecosystems

Manoj Kumar and Ramesh Chandra — 2024-11-30

This study explores the presence of hydrocyanic acid (HCN) in Cynodon dactylon (Bermuda grass) across different ecosystems in Shahjahanpur, Uttar Pradesh, India. Using both qualitative (Picrate Paper Test) and quantitative (spectrophotometric) methods, HCN concentrations were measured in leaves and stems collected from urban areas, grasslands, agricultural fields, and roadside locations. The results revealed significant variation in HCN levels, with the highest concentrations observed in agricultural field samples (140 mg/kg in leaves) and the lowest in grasslands (90 mg/kg in leaves). Leaves consistently exhibited higher HCN levels than stems across all locations. The data suggest that environmental factors, such as soil quality and agricultural practices, influence cyanogenesis in Cynodon dactylon. These findings underscore the potential risks of HCN accumulation in local flora and its implications for livestock grazing, human health, and ecosystem management. Recommendations for mitigating HCN exposure are provided, emphasizing the importance of monitoring agricultural practices and environmental conditions.

Condition and status of women in Early Medieval India

Anusheel Pal and Dr. Seema Gautam — 2024-11-30

The medium of epigraphy will be used in order to research the socio-economic, political and religious roles played by women during early medieval India, stretching from 600 to 1200 CE. As such, we can set aside the traditional patriarchal cliches typically associated with this period from Anjali Verma's work; hence a wide spread diversified participation of women's presence is rendered in that period. The study discovers regional variations and differences in religious influences on issues such as the position of women in Hinduism and Jainism, rights over property, education, widowhood, and religious practices.

Dharmveer — 2024-11-30

Artificial Intelligence has revolutionized the field of education, bringing about sweeping changes in the way teaching and learning is done. AI technology has provided more personalized, effective, and intuitive experiences for teachers and students. This study analyzes the use of AI in education and its impacts. It focuses on simplifying and efficient the learning process through AI tools such as intelligent tutorial systems, adaptive learning platforms, virtual assistants, and data analysis. AI has played a key role in personalizing teaching, allowing content to be made available according to the ability of students and their learning pace. In addition, it helps teachers focus on curriculum and teaching methods by freeing them from administrative tasks. However, the use of AI is also associated with issues such as data security, ethics, and equity. This article evaluates the growing impact of artificial intelligence in the field of education and attempts to understand its benefits, challenges, and possible future dimensions. It is evident that AI is capable of improving the quality and access to education, provided it is implemented with appropriate strategies.
