Unveiling the significance of women's role in health-seeking behavior during suspected malaria fever in risk populations of Nepal: Mixed methods cross-sectional study.

Malaria remains a substantial global health challenge, causing preventable illnesses and fatalities. In Nepal, the government has ambitiously targeted achieving malaria-free status by 2025. This study aims to assess the impact of women's roles on health-seeking behavior during suspected malaria fever in the high-risk area of Kanchanpur district, Nepal.

Cardiovascular disease risk assessment through sensing the circulating microbiome with perovskite quantum dots leveraging deep learning models for bacterial species selection.

Perovskite quantum dots (PQDs) are novel nanomaterials wherein perovskites are used to formulate quantum dots (QDs). The present study utilizes the excellent fluorescence quantum yields of these nanomaterials to detect 16S rRNA of circulating microbiome for risk assessment of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). A long short-term memory (LSTM) deep learning model was used to find the association of the circulating bacterial species with CVD risk, which showed the abundance of three different bacterial species (Bauldia litoralis (BL), Hymenobacter properus (HYM), and Virgisporangium myanmarense (VIG)).

Fucoidan loaded PVA/Dextran blend electrospun nanofibers for the effective wound healing.

Chronic wounds have become a serious global health issue. In this study, we investigated the effect of increasing fucoidan (FD) concentration on the characteristics of nanofibers and their wound healing potential at in vitro as well as in vivo level. The results showed that increasing FD content (0.

Interactive effect of tillage and crop residue management on weed dynamics, root characteristics, crop productivity, profitability and nutrient uptake in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) under Vertisol of Central India.

Tillage and crop residue management play an imperative role in soil physico-chemical properties that eventually affects crop productivity. The objective of the study to find out a compatible combination of tillage and crop residue management for achieving sustainable food production by improving soil properties, providing favorable environment to crop plants. Secondly, managing crop residues effectively to reduce environmental pollution arising due to crop residue burning.

Antilithiatic Potential of , , , and .

Objective: The study aims at the exploration of calcium oxalate (CaO) crystal growth inhibition potential of , , , and ethyl acetate fraction rich in polyphenol and flavonoid.

Materials And Methods: Ethyl acetate fraction was separated from the hydromethanolic extract of , , , and followed by quantitative analysis for total polyphenol and flavonoid content. Ethyl acetate fraction of all the plants were subjected to screening for the inhibition of CaO crystals growth induced by sodium oxalate.

Medicinally important aromatic plants with radioprotective activity.

Aromatic plants are often used as natural medicines because of their remedial and inherent pharmacological properties. Looking into natural resources, particularly products of plant origin, has become an exciting area of research in drug discovery and development. Aromatic plants are mainly exploited for essential oil extraction for applications in industries, for example, in cosmetics, flavoring and fragrance, spices, pesticides, repellents and herbal beverages.

Pharmacological evaluation of (Pers.) on bronchial asthma.

Objective: The present study was to investigate the antiasthmatic potential from the flavonoid fraction of fruit (FFALF) to validate its traditional claim.

Materials And Methods: The antiasthmatic activity of FFALF was evaluated by histamine or acetylcholine-induced bronchospasm model in guinea pigs, compound 48/80 induced mast cell degranulation in albino rats and histamine-induced tracheal contraction in guinea pig. The preconvulsion dyspnea time at 0 and 7 day at the dose of 100 and 200 mg/kg in guinea pig's bronchospasm model, the percentage of granulated and degranulated mast cell at the dose of 500, 750, and 1000 μg/ml in rats and tracheal contraction at the dose of 500, 750, and 1000 μg/ml in guinea pig were measured and compared with respective control groups.
