Optimization of a new Bebq2/BCP-based OLED structure for optimum performance
Abstract: Opto-electronic devices exhibit highly nonlinear current–voltage (I–V) characteristics that significantly affect charge injection, transport, and recombination, evaluating their performance remains a difficult challenge. Device optimization is a key research goal in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), as the thickness and arrangement of individual functional layers greatly influence electrical and optical responses. For a suggested Bebq2/BCP-based OLED structure, this work methodically examines the movement of charge carriers, their transport behavior, and the …

Psychological Profile of Patients Undergoing Hemodialysis and Its Association with Physiological Parameters
Abstract: Background: End-stage renal disease (ESRD) is a chronic, progressive condition requiring maintenance hemodialysis, which imposes substantial physiological, psychological, and social burdens on patients. While physiological indicators are routinely monitored during treatment, the influence of psychological factors on these indicators and patients' quality of life remains inadequately explored, particularly in the Indian context. Objective: To investigate the relationship between psychological variables (depression, anxiety, illness intrusiveness, and quality of life) and physiological …

A Generative AI Paradigm for a Global Crisis: Redesigning the Sanitary Pad Polymer Lifecycle for Environmental and Public Health in India
Abstract: The sale of disposable sanitary pads, most of which contain non-biodegradable polymers, especially polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP) and superabsorbent polyacrylates (SAPs), has led to a souring environmental and population health crisis, especially in India. A linear economic approach of take-make-dispose has resulted in the exponential growth of polymer waste that fully blocks drains, leads to microplastic pollution, and overloads insufficient waste management facilities. Traditional polymers are designed to be permanent …

A Study on Clinical Evaluation of Multi Intervention Therapy for Enhancing Quality of Life in Maintenance Hemodialysis Patients
Abstract: Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) receiving maintenance hemodialysis often report a markedly impaired health-related quality of life, largely resulting from factors such as psychological distress, chronic inflammation, and poor nutritional status. Despite its importance as a clinical outcome, HRQOL assessment in dialysis patients has received limited attention. Strengthening comprehensive patient care and optimizing treatment strategies may help reduce complications and promote improved physical, mental, and social well-being. The present …

Reduction of Pollutant for SI Engine Using Argon and Oxy-hydrogen
Abstract: Reducing the emission associated with oil combustion is gaining increasing interest worldwide. Due to their dangerous effects on human health, vegetation and climate, various pre-combustion, in-cylinder and post combustion techniques have been tried for their abatement. The combustion of a hydrocarbon fuel with air produces mainly carbon dioxide(CO2) and Water(H2O). However, internal combustion engines are not perfectly efficient, so some of the fuel is not burned, which results in the …
