 Abstract

Psoriasis vulgaris is a chronic inflammatory skin disorder with a relapsing course and a significant psychosomatic component, in which psychogenic stress plays an important role in disease onset and aggravation. Homeopathy adopts an individualized approach that considers mental, emotional, and physical dimensions of disease expression. Cyclamen europaeum is a homeopathic remedy commonly indicated in individuals exhibiting emotional sensitivity and stress-related disturbances. This observational clinical evaluation aimed to assess the role of individualized Cyclamen europaeum in patients suffering from psoriasis vulgaris associated with psychogenic stress. Patients diagnosed with psoriasis vulgaris and identifiable stress factors were included, and detailed case taking was carried out according to homeopathic principles, emphasizing mental, emotional, and physical generals. Cyclamen europaeum was prescribed on an individualized basis in appropriate potencies, and patients were followed up periodically. Clinical changes in psoriatic lesions, stress-related symptoms, and overall well-being were assessed through systematic clinical observation. The study observations revealed improvement in cutaneous manifestations along with a reduction in stress-related symptoms and enhancement of general well-being in a majority of cases. The findings suggest that individualized Cyclamen europaeum may have a beneficial role in the management of psoriasis vulgaris associated with psychogenic stress, highlighting the importance of individualized homeopathic prescribing and the consideration of psychosomatic factors in chronic skin disorders.

 Abstract

Kabaddi is a fast-growing indigenous team sport India, but most school, college and club teams still depend on manual scoring sheets and subjective judgment to evaluate performance. This limits objective player assessment, tactical learning and data-driven talent identification, despite the sport's increasing professionalization through the pro kabaddi league. This paper presents an ai-driven performance analytics and decision support system for kabaddi that integrates structured raid-wise data capture, player and team profiling, machine learning models, and natural language reporting into a unified web and mobile platform. The proposed methodology defines a kabaddi-specific data schema, a layered system architecture, and a set of models for match win-probability estimation, expected raid points (raid) and unsupervised player role clustering, together with template-based natural language generation for automatic match summaries and profile insights.

 Abstract

Cable manufacturing, particularly in the context of Ethylene Propylene Rubber (EPR) extrusion processes, faces challenges related to eccentricity, which can compromise the quality and performance of cables. In this study, we investigate the efficacy of mechanical interventions to mitigate eccentricity during the EPR extrusion process. Eccentricity, characterized by non-uniform thickness distribution around the circumference of the cable, is a critical parameter affecting electrical performance and mechanical integrity. By addressing eccentricity, manufacturers can significantly enhance the quality and reliability of cables, meeting stringent industry standards and customer requirements. Through a systematic approach, this research explores various mechanical interventions aimed at reducing eccentricity in EPR extrusion processes. These interventions include modifications to extrusion die designs, adjustments in material feeding mechanisms, and advancements in cooling systems. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of these interventions in minimizing eccentricity and improving cable uniformity. Moreover, the study evaluates the impact of these interventions on production efficiency, cost-effectiveness, and overall process stability. The findings provide valuable insights for cable manufacturers seeking to optimize their manufacturing processes and deliver high-quality products to the market.

 Abstract

Organ remedy is the use of a localized, specific, targeted similimum we use the totality of the symptoms of the organ, tissue or function with its modalities to choose remedy. Hydrangea (Hydrangea Arborescens) has been traditionally used as a natural remedy for managing urological disorders, particularly ureteric stones. Its active components, including hydrangin, saponins, and flavonoids, exhibit diuretic, anti-inflammatory, and antispasmodic properties, making it effective in promoting the dissolution and passage of stones.

Background: Diagnostic radiography in dentistry not only aids in the detection of local dental pathologies but may also reveal subtle osseous changes associated with systemic diseases. Nutrient canals (NCs), seen as linear radiolucencies in the mandibular anterior region on intraoral periapical radiographs (IOPARs), have been suggested as possible indicators of systemic vascular alterations, particularly hypertension. Aim: To compare the incidence of nutrient canals in hypertensive and non-hypertensive individuals and to assess their association with age, gender, severity, and duration of hypertension. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional observational comparative study was conducted on 300 subjects aged 30-70 years. The study group comprised 150 diagnosed hypertensive patients, and the control group included 150 healthy non-hypertensive individuals. Blood pressure was recorded using the auscultatory method, and IOPARs of the mandibular anterior region were obtained. Presence of nutrient canals was evaluated and statistically analyzed using SPSS version 21. Chi-square test was applied, with significance set at p < 0.05. Results: Nutrient canals were observed in 81.3% of hypertensive patients compared to 12% of non-hypertensive subjects, showing a highly significant difference (p < 0.001). A significant association was noted with age and duration of hypertension, while gender showed no significant influence. Conclusion: Increased visibility of nutrient canals on IOPARs is significantly associated with hypertension and may serve as an adjunctive radiographic marker for early detection of this systemic condition.

 Abstract

Jai Bhim (2021), directed by T. J. Gnanavel, transcends the boundaries of conventional courtroom dramas to emerge as a compelling socio-political commentary deeply embedded in the cultural fabric of Tamil Nadu. Based on a real-life incident involving the custodial death of a tribal man and the legal battle that followed, the film deftly interweaves themes of caste-based discrimination, tribal marginalisation, and structural injustice, all of which remain pressing issues within Indian society. Set against the backdrop of the Irular tribe's lived realities, Jai Bhim offers a rare cinematic portrayal of a community that exists on the peripheries of both state recognition and cultural representation. Through its powerful storytelling, character development, and visual composition, the film not only humanises the experiences of the oppressed but also exposes the deep-rooted social hierarchies and institutional violence that perpetuate their suffering. This paper aims to analyse Jai Bhim through a cultural studies framework, drawing on narrative analysis, visual semiotics, and socio-historical referencing. It explores how the film acts as both a cultural document that preserves and presents the voices of the marginalised, and a political artefact that challenges hegemonic structures. In doing so, the study also highlights the film's role in furthering Dalit-Bahujan discourse, critiquing the dominant narratives in Tamil cinema, and reclaiming space for indigenous and lower-caste representation. Ultimately, Jai Bhim is not merely a cinematic experience--it is a call to consciousness, urging audiences to confront the uncomfortable truths of caste, state violence, and systemic exclusion. It reaffirms the potential of cinema as a tool for social transformation, cultural assertion, and political resistance.

 Abstract

Corporate governance has emerged as a critical framework for ensuring transparency, accountability, and ethical management of corporations in an increasingly globalized economy. Sound governance practices are essential for protecting stakeholder interests, enhancing investor confidence, and ensuring sustainable corporate performance. In recent decades, corporate governance systems across the world have undergone significant transformation due to financial crises, corporate scandals, regulatory reforms, and growing emphasis on sustainability and social responsibility. The rationale for this review lies in understanding how global governance trends are evolving and how India, as a major emerging economy, is aligning its governance practices with international standards. The primary objective of this study is to examine key global trends in corporate governance and analyze their relevance and application within the Indian context. The study adopts a descriptive and analytical approach based on a systematic review of academic literature, international policy reports, and regulatory frameworks from both global and Indian sources. The review covers the period from 2000 to 2025 to capture long-term structural changes in governance practices. The study identifies major global trends such as the shift from shareholder-centric to stakeholder-oriented governance, integration of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) considerations, increasing emphasis on board diversity and independence, alignment of executive compensation with performance, and the growing role of digital technologies in governance processes. In India, corporate governance has evolved significantly through regulatory reforms such as the Companies Act, 2013 and SEBI's Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements (LODR). The findings highlight both convergence with global standards and persistent challenges in implementation. The study offers important implications for policymakers, corporate leaders, and researchers in strengthening governance frameworks and promoting sustainable business practices.
