Stress-relieving plant growth-promoting bacterial co-inoculation enhances nodulation and nitrogen uptake in black gram under nitrogen-free saline conditions.

Non-halophytic plants are highly susceptible to salt stress, but numerous studies have shown that halo-tolerant microorganisms can alleviate this stress by producing phytohormones and enhancing nutrient availability. This study aimed to identify and evaluate native microbial communities from salt-affected regions to boost black gram () resilience against salinity, while improving plant growth, nitrogen uptake, and nodulation in saline environments. Six soil samples were collected from a salt-affected region in eastern Uttar Pradesh, revealing high electrical conductivity (EC) and pH, along with low nutrient availability.

Yoga: As a Transformative Approach to Addressing Male Infertility and Enhancing Reproductive Health in Men: A Narrative Review.

Infertility presents multifaceted challenges that encompass both physical and emotional burdens. Yoga, as a comprehensive system of mind-body medicine, serves as an effective intervention for managing male factor infertility, a complex lifestyle disorder with significant psychosomatic elements. This review explores the transformative role of yoga in addressing both the emotional and physical dimensions of infertility.

Advances for Managing Pancreatic Cystic Lesions: Integrating Imaging and AI Innovations.

Pancreatic cystic lesions (PCLs) represent a spectrum of non-neoplasms and neoplasms with varying malignant potential, posing significant challenges in diagnosis and management. While some PCLs are precursors to pancreatic cancer, others remain benign, necessitating accurate differentiation for optimal patient care. Conventional approaches to PCL management rely heavily on radiographic imaging, and endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) guided fine-needle aspiration (FNA), coupled with clinical and biochemical data.

Optimal design of tilt integral derivative controller for a boost converter based on swarm-inspired algorithms.

This article proposes a novel dual-loop control (DLC) method with a Tilt Integral Derivative (TID) Controller for output voltage regulation and inductor current regulation in a boost converter. The TID controller is designed with the aid of swarm inspired algorithms, particularly Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) and Salp Swarm Optimization (SSO). The TID Controller is a robust, and feedback type of controller and belongs to the family of fractional order controllers.

Therapeutic Bronchoscopic Interventions for Non Foreign-Body Removal Indications in Children.

Background: The indications for pediatric airway endoscopy are expanding and a variety of therapeutic interventions are feasible for central airway obstruction (CAO) and other central airway pathologies, apart from foreign body removal.

Methods: In this retrospective chart review from four centers, we describe the indications, procedures, outcomes, and complications of therapeutic bronchoscopic interventions in children for non foreign-body removal indications.

Results: A total of 72 children (mean age:140 [60.
