A Study to Assess the Effectiveness of an Informational Booklet on Knowledge Regarding First Aid for Snake Bite Among People in Selected Rural Community Area of Kanpur Dehat, U.P.
Abstract: Snake bite is a common and frequently devastating environmental and occupational health problem, particularly in rural areas of tropical developing countries. Despite its significant contribution to morbidity and mortality, snake bite remains a neglected public health issue. Snake venoms contain a variety of proteins and peptide toxins with specific actions on different tissue receptors, making snake bite management clinically challenging. Immediate and appropriate first aid plays a crucial role in …

Design and Simulation of Proximal Convoluted Tubule Flow Kinetics for Kidney-on-chip Applications
Abstract: The primary function of human kidney is purifying the impure blood in the body. In addition to this, kidney performs balance homeostasis, solute balance and blood pressure maintenance. Proximal convoluted tube (PCT) is a primary part in the nephron which plays a crucial role in the excretion, secretion and re-absorption of solutes and proteins. While performing all these functions, kidneys tends to get affected in several ways leading to failure …

A Molecular Docking Study: Targetting HIV-1 Integrase Protein Against Selected Phytocompounds from Calophyllum Lanigerum
Abstract: Objectives: The most common form of HIV that causes AIDS is HIV-1. The World Health Organization has estimated roughly 75 million plus HIV-1 infections till date and roughly 40 million deaths (as of 2021). Thus, this study was done to identify natural compounds from Calophyllum lanigerum, a medicinal plant largely endemic to South-East Asia, to inhibit the spread of this disease. It did so by using molecular docking methods, Lipinski …

Ferrous bisglycinate (FBG) as a source of iron supplement
Abstract: Iron is a crucial element that holds significance in various essential biological functions. These include the synthesis of heme, which constitutes the core component of hemoglobin, the protein responsible for transporting oxygen in the bloodstream. Additionally, iron is involved in the production of myoglobin, energy metabolism, neurotransmitter synthesis, collagen formation, and the functioning of the immune system. There are mainly two reasons for iron imbalance: Iron deficiency and Iron overload. …
