Integrated Assessment of Soil Health Through Macronutrient Status and Physico-Chemical Properties in Selected Agricultural Blocks of Kangra District, Himachal Pradesh, India
Abstract: Soil health is a critical determinant of agricultural sustainability, particularly in ecologically sensitive Himalayan regions where intensive cultivation and heterogeneous landscapes influence nutrient dynamics. Balanced macronutrient availability, together with favourable physico-chemical properties, governs crop productivity, soil resilience, and long-term ecosystem functioning. Despite the agronomic importance of Kangra District (Himachal Pradesh), localized assessments integrating nutrient status with physico-chemical indicators across representative agricultural blocks remain limited. This study aimed to evaluate soil …

Correlation of Serum Vitamin D Levels with Insulin Resistance in Young Adults
Abstract: Among young adults, both insulin resistance (IR)and vitamin D deficiency are common and pose the risk of complications, such as type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). A few studies demonstrated that vitamin D deficiency might negatively influence insulin sensitivity, but the results of these studies have been inconsistent and/or inconclusive. This review focuses on young adults and aims to summarize and critique studies that assess the relationship between IR and serum …

Study and Analysis of Delay Faults of Embedded Processor using Dynamic Voltage Scaling Methods
Abstract: Voltage over-scaling has been a possibility for energy dependability compromise. This research will look into its effectiveness and the potential for rationale deferral flaws. Our contextual investigation on an ARM Cortex-M0 processor with business 45 nm libraries shows that the quantity of defer deficiencies increments decisively after the principal bombing working point which infers that voltage overscaling will be wasteful after the basic working point. This recommends the need of …

Hypoxic Ischemic Encephalopathy: An Ayurvedic Review and Treatment: A Case Study
Abstract: One of the most severe and potentially fatal conditions of the infant brain that can develop before or during delivery is HIE. Common definitions of HIE include HYPOXIC (insufficient oxygen), ISCHEMIC (insufficient blood flow), and ENCEPHALOPATHY (brain disease). It is a terrible disease that can leave children with severe neurologic deficits or even kill them. HIE happens when a baby's brain receives insufficient oxygen and blood (perinatal hypoxia), which results …

A Comparative Study of Timed Up and Go Test and Tinetti Performance Oriented Mobility Assessment in Predicting Falls in Hemiparetic Stroke Patients
Abstract: Hemiparesis following stroke is the most frequent cause of adult disability. Falls in stroke survivors are a consequence of stroke related locomotor deficits or balance deficits or gait disturbances. Falls are common following stroke but knowledge about predicting future fallers is lacking. The purpose of this study was to compare Timed Up and Go test (TUG) scores and Performance Oriented Mobility Assessment (POMA) scores for predicting falls in Hemiparetic patients …
