Long-term fertilization and manuring effects on the nexus between sulphur distribution and SOC in an Inceptisol over five decades under a finger millet-maize cropping system.

Our investigation revealed that alterations in sulphur (S) pools are predominantly governed by soil organic carbon (SOC), soil nitrogen (N), microbial biomass, and soil enzyme activities in sandy clay loam (Vertic Ustropept) soil. We employed ten sets of nutrient management techniques, ranging from suboptimal (50% RDF) to super-optimal doses (150% RDF), including NPK + Zn, NP, N alone, S-free NPK fertilizers, NPK + FYM, and control treatments, to examine the interrelation of S with SOC characteristics. Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy was utilized to analyze the functional groups present in SOC characterization across four treatments: 100% NPK, 150% NPK, NPK + FYM, and absolute control plots.

Identifying Population at Risk for Diabetes Mellitus through International Diabetes Federation Questionnaire - A Simple Yet Valuable Tool.

Unlabelled: "Prevention is better than cure." This strategy cannot be overemphasized than in diabetes mellitus (DM). We utilized the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) questionnaire, with additional modifications, to assess the risk of DM to identify the population at risk, based on non-laboratory evaluation.

Unraveling a cephalalgic quagmire from a cavern to a cave.

Headache in women in their late forties can be primary or secondary. We report a 48-year-old female with chronic slowly progressive left temporal headache for 1 year. She also had ipsilateral eye pain and facial numbness for 1 month, with restricted abduction in the left eye and diplopia.
