Alcohol, Circadian Glymphatic Dysfunction, and Neurodegenerative Protein Accumulation: An Emerging Concern in the Indian Context
Abstract: Alcohol consumption has long been identified as a major public health issue, yet its deeper and more subtle effects on the human brain are only now coming into sharper focus. Traditional explanations often emphasize direct neuronal damage, but emerging research in neuroscience suggests a more intricate story. Recent findings indicate that alcohol not only harms brain cells but also disrupts the body’s internal biological clock—the circadian rhythm—which plays a critical …

AI Driven IoT Based Decision Making System for Brain wave study: KSK approach for Brain wave study
Abstract: The rapid convergence of Internet of Things (IoT) architectures and deep learning has unlocked unprecedented potential for real-time neuro-diagnostic monitoring. This paper presents a novel framework for an AI-driven IoT ecosystem designed to capture, transmit, and interpret human electroencephalography (EEG) signals with minimal latency. Traditional brain-computer interface (BCI) studies are often constrained by localized computing power and the high dimensionality of neural data. Our proposed architecture integrates low-power EEG sensors …

Epidemiology of Stomach Cancer in Northeastern States of India: Focusing on Nagaland and the Effectiveness of Screening Programs
Abstract: Stomach cancer represents a critical public health burden in northeastern India, with Nagaland exhibiting the highest age-standardized incidence rate in the country - nearly triple the national average. This elevated risk profile stems from multiple factors including traditional dietary practices (high consumption of smoked meats and fermented foods), widespread Helicobacter pylori infection (affecting approximately 70% of adults), prevalent tobacco/alcohol use, and limited healthcare infrastructure. Despite demonstrated success of endoscopic screening …

The Awareness–Behaviour Paradox: Media Literacy and Social Media Risk Behaviour Among Nigerian Undergraduates
Abstract: Background: The proliferation of internet-capable devices and social media platforms has created an intricate web of risks for Nigerian undergraduates, including cyberbullying, addiction, misinformation, and exposure to indecent content. While media literacy has been widely proposed in Western scholarship as a sustainable intervention for responsible online behaviour, its protective mechanisms remain insufficiently understood in non-Western contexts, particularly with respect to the psychological pathways through which literacy operates. Objectives: This study …
