 Abstract

Over the last decade, the way people connect through online social networking has undergone a significant transformation, influencing communication patterns. However, the effect of this transformation on mental health, specifically concerning depression, self-esteem, and Internet addiction, remains a subject of debate. Research indicates a potential correlation between extended use of social networking sites (SNS) and depressive symptoms, particularly among children and adolescents. There are also conflicting findings on how SNS activities impact self-esteem, with some studies suggesting negative effects and others emphasizing positive outcomes. The ongoing debate surrounding the connection between social networking and mental health is fueled by the challenge of reconciling contradictory research results. While some studies point to the harmful effects of excessive SNS use, others underscore the positive aspects of social connectivity. This complex landscape emphasizes the need for more detailed investigations to unravel the intricate interplay between online social networking and mental health outcomes.

 Abstract

Raja Ravi Varma, a pioneering Indian painter of the 19th century, skillfully incorporated the element of water into his exceptional artworks, establishing a deep link between artistic representation and psychology. Within Varma's body of work, water is more than just a visual element; it represents a powerful and dynamic force that signifies purification, rejuvenation, and the cyclical essence of existence. The artist's precise depictions of bodies of water, be it tranquil lakes, meandering rivers, or tumultuous waves, demonstrate his astute scrutiny of the natural world. Varma's utilisation of water surpasses its literal depiction, surpassing its tangible characteristics to evoke a feeling of transcendence and divine interconnectedness. The artist's paintings frequently portray mythological stories in which divine beings and human beings come together at the boundary of water, highlighting the profound spiritual importance of these watery domains. The research article will analyse Madhav and Radha, Sri Rama Vanquishing the Sea, Menaka the Nymph Tempting the Yogi and Dhruv Narayan in light of blue humanities. Varma's expertise lies in his capacity to imbue spirituality into the dynamic nature of water, thereby converting it into a symbol representing the perpetual process of birth, death, and rejuvenation in Hindu philosophy.

In this study we investigate how peer reviews and ratings affect the food ordering decisions of Generation Z (GenZ) in Bhopal considering Zomato Food delivery app. As most Generation Z turn to an online platform for dinner ideas, the study seeks to determine how much influence peer reviews and ratings have on Gen Z behaviour on the app. The study utilizes a mixed-methods approach to combine quantitative data employing 96 surveyed respondents with qualitative insights derived from open-ended questions. According to the report, peer reviews influence food ordering behavior substantially and with more than 75% of those surveyed changing their order based on a poor review. To test this hypothesis, chi-square test was applied to the data collected and results show strong relationship between reviews and consumers behavior. The results highlight how essential it is for a restaurant to keep its online reputation intact if it hopes to appeal the digitally connected breadwinner. In addition, the study offers a clear insight of digital engagement and consumer behaviours in Bhopal for Gen Z & how important is reliable reviews/ rating which will impact their dining experience.

 Abstract

Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) is a chronic liver condition characterized by the accumulation of excess fat in the liver, excluding significant alcohol consumption. This study, conducted at Aligarh Muslim University, investigates the prevalence of NAFLD in relation to gender, SES, and BMI, aiming to understand the distribution of the disease across different demographics and to explore the socioeconomic factors influencing its prevalence. Material and Method: The study involved 105 patients of both genders, aged 20-60 years, with NAFLD diagnosed through ultrasonographic scans. Result: The prevalence of NAFLD was found to be slightly higher in males (54.28%) compared to females (45.71%), with gender playing a significant role in disease prevalence. Across different SES groups, the highest prevalence was observed in the upper middle class (46.67%), although the chi-square test revealed no statistically significant difference in NAFLD distribution across SES categories. BMI was significantly associated with NAFLD prevalence, with the highest incidence observed in the pre-obesity category (35.23%). The study underscores the critical role of obesity in NAFLD development. Conclusion: This research highlights the importance of addressing obesity and socioeconomic disparities in the management of NAFLD. It emphasizes the need for further studies on gender-specific risk factors, particularly the impact of menopause on fibrosis development in women, and calls for targeted public health interventions to mitigate the rising prevalence of NAFLD.

 Abstract

High Performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) is a specialized form of column chromatography extensively used in biochemistry and analytical chemistry for the separation, identification, and quantification of chemical compounds. It is especially prevalent in drug analysis for detecting, separating, and quantifying pharmaceuticals. The development and validation of HPLC techniques are crucial for novel drug discovery, development, and manufacturing, as well as for a variety of research applications involving both human and animal studies. This involves verifying the performance of the HPLC system, including checks for column efficiency, resolution, and reproducibility, to ensure it meets the required standards. By addressing these factors, an HPLC method can be developed to be reliable, reproducible, and suitable for its intended analytical tasks, thus supporting drug discovery, quality control, and various research endeavour's.

 Abstract

An examination of the complicated problem of gender violence in India is presented here, with the goal of presenting it as a non-traditional security concern. Using Rashid Jahan's Parde ke Peeche, Ismat Chughtai's Chauthi ka Joda and The Quilt, and Shashi Deshpande's That Long Silence, the research investigates the narratives and literary representations of gender violence in these works of literature. By shedding light on the challenges that women face and the resiliency they exhibit, these works provide a comprehensive understanding of the social and cultural conditions that contribute to the perpetuation of gender violence. A critical work that sheds light on the widespread problem of domestic abuse is Behind the Closed Doors: Domestic abuse in India, which is also investigated in this article. The purpose of this study is to highlight the significance of tackling gender violence not only as a social problem but also as a key security risk that has an impact on the nation's stability and growth. This will be accomplished via the analysis of these tales. According to the results, a complete awareness of the issue of gender violence and a strategic approach to addressing it may result in more successful policies and interventions, which in turn contribute to the general security and well-being of society. With the intention of making a contribution to the current conversation on female violence and highlighting the need of a paradigm change in the way that such problems are seen and dealt in India, this is being done.
