Assessing the Increasing Incidence of Prostate Cancer in Urban Delhi: Risk Factors, Early Detection, and Treatment Challenges
Abstract: Background: Prostate cancer has emerged as the second most prevalent cancer among men in India, with rapidly increasing incidence rates in urban areas like Delhi. This rise is attributed to urbanization, lifestyle changes (high-fat diets, tobacco use, sedentary behavior), increased life expectancy, and improved diagnostics. Despite its growing burden, low awareness, limited screening programs, and treatment barriers hinder early detection and effective management. This study examines the epidemiological trends, risk …

Assessing Air Quality, Climate Change, and Migration Dynamics in Delhi NCR: A System Dynamics Approach
Abstract: As climate change accelerates and environmental degradation worsens, urban centers like Delhi NCR are under increasing pressure from internal migration. Poor air quality—especially in rural and peri-urban regions—emerges both as a driver of out-migration and a deterrent for in-migration to already burdened cities. This study develops a system dynamics (SD) model that integrates climate variables, air pollution metrics, economic indicators, governance quality, and migration behavior to simulate population flows into …

Atmospheric Boundary Layer Processes: Impacts on Weather Patterns and Climate Change
Abstract: The atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) is a vital component of the Earth's climate system, acting as the interface between the terrestrial surface and the overlying atmosphere. This layer, typically extending from the surface to a height of a few hundred meters, is characterized by strong gradients in meteorological variables such as temperature, humidity, wind speed, and atmospheric pressure. Understanding the dynamics of the ABL is essential for comprehending weather phenomena, …

Marchiafava Bignami Syndrome: A Review
Abstract: Marchiafava-Bignami syndrome (MBS) is a rare neurological disorder characterized by demyelination and necrosis of the corpus callosum, which is the main bundle of nerve fibers connecting the two hemispheres of the brain. MBS primarily affects individuals with chronic alcoholism, although cases unrelated to alcohol consumption have also been reported. The corpus callosum is affected in almost a pathognomonic way. The clinical presentation is based on neurological impairment, motor abnormalities, seizures, …

Integrated Surface Water–Groundwater Dynamics: Implications for Pollution Pathways, Prevention, and Environmental Control
Abstract: Water resources worldwide are increasingly threatened by pollution pressures amplified by climate change and intensified human activities. The vulnerability of surface water and groundwater systems to contamination is strongly governed by their dynamic hydrologic connectivity, which is often overlooked in pollution prevention and control frameworks. Rising global temperatures, altered precipitation regimes, land-use change, and intensified abstraction patterns modify recharge processes, flow paths, and contaminant transport mechanisms across environmental landscapes. This …
