 Abstract

Background: Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) is a life-saving emergency procedure, but awareness and skills among the general youth population remain inadequate. Aim: To assess and compare the level of knowledge regarding CPR before and after a structured demonstration among graduate students in selected colleges of Indore. Methods: A pre-experimental one-group pre-test and post-test design was used among 50 graduate students selected through purposive sampling. A structured knowledge questionnaire was administered before and after an educational session on CPR. Results: The mean pre-test knowledge score was 11.2, and the post-test mean was 17.4. The difference was statistically significant (p < 0.05), indicating improved knowledge. Conclusion: The structured demonstration was effective in improving CPR knowledge among graduate students. Educational institutions should incorporate CPR training into their curriculum.

 Abstract

Construction projects in remote or extreme environments, such as the "Harsh Paradise" site in Sambhajinagar, pose unique challenges to occupational health and safety. This report identifies and analyses the wide range of construction risks, including safety hazards, operational inefficiencies, financial uncertainties, and environmental concerns, with a particular focus on on-site conditions like inadequate PPE, lack of safety training, and absence of emergency preparedness. The study presents practical strategies for risk mitigation through improved planning, the use of protective equipment, worker training, and the establishment of safety protocols. Moreover, it emphasizes the growing role of modern technologies such as Building Information Modelling (BIM), drones, IoT sensors, wearable devices, and project management software in predicting, monitoring, and minimizing risks. A detailed case study of the Harsh Paradise construction site further highlights real-world issues and their corresponding solutions, including appointing safety officers, implementing training programs, and improving emergency response systems. Reference is also made to applicable IS codes to ensure compliance with national safety standards. The report concludes that a proactive, technology integrated safety culture supported by teamwork, supervision, and regulatory adherence is essential for ensuring safety, efficiency, and project success in challenging construction environments.

 Abstract

The increasing integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into human-computer interaction (HCI) systems has paved the way for more natural and intuitive communication methods. This research paper presents a novel approach where users can interact with machines using hand gestures to solve mathematical problems in real time. Traditional methods of inputting mathematical expressions, such as keyboards or styluses, can sometimes hinder the learning experience, particularly for younger learners or individuals with accessibility challenges. In response, the project leverages advanced computer vision techniques and AI-based interpretation to allow users to draw mathematical expressions in the air using their hands. The system utilizes robust libraries such as CVZone, MediaPipe, OpenCV (cv2), and NumPy for real-time hand detection, tracking, and image preprocessing. Once the hand gestures are captured, the drawn expression is processed and converted into an appropriate image format using PIL (Python Imaging Library). This image is then sent through a custom-built API to Gemini AI, a powerful multimodal AI model capable of interpreting handwritten or gesture-based mathematical problems. Gemini AI processes the input, computes the solution, and sends back the result, which is then displayed to the user through an interactive Streamlit web interface. The entire workflow ensures minimal latency and a smooth user experience, making the system both efficient and user-friendly. This paper details the system's design, implementation, challenges encountered, and future potential, highlighting the integration of computer vision, gesture recognition, and advanced AI for interactive mathematical problem-solving.

 Abstract

National Stock Exchange and Bombay Stock Exchange had a breaking record hitting their returns high with NSE recording 24% and BSE recording 21% during the period of 21 October 2021. The high returns were recorded after a breakthrough from covid-19 lockdown as the economy recover to normalcy. Hence this study is conducted to measure and compare the efficiency of NSE and BSE in weak form of efficiency and strong form of efficiency based on two major indices namely, Nifty 50 and S&P BSE Sensex and on selected ten stocks listed on both NSE and BSE. Skewness was used to test if the price series follows a normal distribution, Runs test was used to test the randomness of market prices and Security Market Line to measure the efficiency in strong form of efficiency. The results of the study showed that both NSE and BSE are weak form inefficient and strong form inefficient. However, NSE is more efficient than BSE.

 Abstract

Generative AI, characterized by its ability to produce new data patterns and simulate patient outcomes, has become a transformative force in healthcare--especially in the realm of care management. This review explores the integration of generative models such as GANs, VAEs, and transformers into care management systems. It synthesizes recent developments, experimental validations, and real-world deployments to assess the impact of these technologies on patient triage, treatment personalization, risk stratification, and clinical decision support. The study also presents a theoretical framework supported by visual models and highlights key challenges such as data privacy, ethical oversight, and model explainability. Finally, it outlines strategic future directions to advance the safe and scalable adoption of generative AI in clinical environments.

 Abstract

The Bede or Bedia community - often called the Gypsies of India - represent a nomadic community with deep historical and cultural roots in the riverine South Bengal. Despite their close connection with the folk culture of rural Bengal, they remain politically, socially, and economically marginalized. This paper traces the historical Life path of the Bede community from colonial times to post-independence India, analysing the impact of state surveillance (through various Acts), legal exclusion, and socio-political neglect on their current situation. Since they have no permanent residence, they are not eligible to become citizens. As a result, they are deprived of human rights, civil rights, etc., in this country. This article argues for urgent state intervention to preserve their cultural identity and enable political and economic inclusion.

 Abstract

The protection and mental health of women and children continue to be pressing societal concerns, but while immense problems remain in the form of restricted access to mental healthcare, unawareness of legal rights, and inadequate provisions for emergency support mechanisms, immense problems still abound. The StrongHer project meets the above challenges through the creation of a secure, accessible, and integrated online platform. The platform provides virtual counselling services, mental health screenings using GAD-7 and PHQ-9 scales, gamified learning exercises that enhance legal awareness, and instant emergency response using IoT-based wearable devices. Sensitive medical records are stored securely using blockchain technology (Ethereum and IPFS) to maintain data privacy and integrity. Developed using ASP.NET Core MVC, Microsoft SQL Server, NodeMCU (IoT module), and blockchain integrations, StrongHer integrates the latest technologies to establish a digital safe space. The system empowers users by boosting their mental resilience, giving them timely support, encouraging legal literacy, and providing real-time emergency communication features. By combining counselling, legal aid, education, and emergency response within one environment, StrongHer is a complete solution to tackle the complex issues of vulnerable groups, thus making a significant contribution towards the safety and well-being of society.

 Abstract

This study explores the potential of Pinus (pine tree) leaves as a natural source for eco-printing on cotton and silk fabrics. The research compares two eco-printing techniques--printing with a dye blanket and without a blanket. The effects of mordant and blankets on color intensity, print definition, and fastness properties were observed. Results indicate that both techniques can produce aesthetically pleasing prints, with distinct variations in color depth and pattern clarity depending on the mordant or blanket used. This study highlights eco-printing as a sustainable and creative approach to textile surface design.
