Comparative Efficacy of Ayurveda Treatment Regimen and Letrozole along with Yoga Module in the Management of Unexplained and Anovulatory Female Infertility: Study Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial.

Introduction: Infertility is a significant health problem with psycho-social burden for couples. Ayurveda considers a holistic approach, including complex multimodal regimens in managing infertility. Increasing evidence has shown that Yoga as an adjuvant to infertility treatment increases pregnancy rates.

Comparison of gait deviation index (GDI) and gait variability index (GVI) measured by marker-based and markerless motion capture systems in children with cerebral palsy (CP).

Background: The Gait Deviation Index (GDI) is a metric clinicians use to assess overall gait pathology in children with cerebral palsy (CP) by comparing kinematic data to a normative sample. The Gait Variability Index (GVI) is a related metric that quantifies the variability in spatio-temporal variables during gait. The GDI and GVI have been verified using marker-based motion capture approaches, but video-based markerless motion capture has not been compared using these tools in children with CP.

Raga Bhairavi in virtual reality reduces stress-related psychophysiological markers.

The effects of classical music on psychophysiological parameters are not well understood. This study aimed to investigate the impact of listening to raga Bhairavi, an Indian Classical Music for six days on anxiety, stress, depression, and heart rate variability (HRV) parameters. Forty-four individuals were randomly assigned to either the intervention group (VR-raga), where they listened to raga Bhairavi via 360° video in a virtual reality environment, or the control group, where there was no exposure to raga Bhairavi for six days.

A comprehensive evaluation of linear and non-linear HRV parameters between paced breathing and stressful mental state.

Background: Heart rate variability (HRV) is a crucial metric that provides valuable insight into the balance between relaxation and stress. Previous research has shown that most HRV parameters improve during periods of mental relaxation, while decreasing during tasks involving cognitive workload. Although a comprehensive analysis of both linear and non-linear HRV parameters has been carried out in existing literature, there still exists a need for further research in this area.
