This case report describes the management of a lumbar spine injury using Kati Basti, Matra Basti and Abhyanga. Spinal injuries often lead to low back pain, radiculopathy, and varying degrees of motor or sensory loss in the lower limbs. Ayurvedic therapies, especially Basti and Abhyanga, are commonly used for conditions driven by aggravated Vata. A 32-year-old male presented with acute lumbar pain radiating to both lower limbs after trauma. He had reduced motor strength, sensory deficits, and difficulty walking.

Humanity is facing new weather phenomena. This is explained by the greenhouse effect and the increase in carbon dioxide. However, there are considerable doubts about this simplified, monocausal hypothesis. The history of warm and ice ages is not taken into account, nor are cyclical processes in the solar system. Therefore, the enormously expensive fight against CO² is pointless and will be unsuccessful. Plants need CO², therefore, we should build greenhouses. We should take meaningful and inexpensive measures which are presented here.

La región alfalfera del Valle del Mezquital en el Estado de Hidalgo, México, está teniendo problemas importantes en su productividad, debido a que la vida útil de la pradera se reduce como consecuencia de la presencia de la arvense Parthenium hysterophorus. Esta planta con efectos alelopáticos provoca la muerte de matas de alfalfa cuando están en competencia. Se han buscado alternativas diferentes para el control de la arvense, desde métodos químicos, físicos y biológicos.

En 1939, Mère Eugenia débarqua sur l’Île Désirée, un village lépreux bâti en 1912. Les conditions difficiles dans lesquelles se trouvaient les lépreux l’emmenèrent à entreprendre la construction d’un village pour lépreux à Adzopé. La Léproserie d’Adzopé ouvrit ses portes en 1942 et était à la charge de la Congrégation Notre Dame des Apôtres. En 1945, les Attiés exigèrent sa délocalisation à cause de sa proximité avec la ville. Un nouveau site trouvé à 15 km de la ville, la nouvelle léproserie s’ouvrit en 1950 grâce à la contribution financière de Raoul Follereau.

The present study of Dicoma tomentosa has been discussed with their habit, habitat, flowering & fruiting, taxonomic enumeration, nativity and physiographic position. The floristic account reveals that occasional threatened distribution of this species found few districts of Uttar Pradesh and dealing as becomes vulnerable species. The specimen deposition of this species which assist its future purpose.

Contamination in drinking water affects society and the phenomenon becomes a global problem. Some contaminants are general and some depend on the geographical location. The extent of the contamination also depends on geographical location. Fluoride is such a contaminant presence of water causes Fluorosis. The maximum permissible limit of fluoride in drinking water is 1.5 mgL-1. Endeavors are going on in chemical Laboratories stored throughout the globe for defluoridation of drinking water and several such procedures have been developed and recommended.

The study focused on the comparative determination of the effects of the combination of leaf extracts of Carica papaya (CP) and Vernonia amygdalina (VA) and Artemether-based combination therapy (ACTs) on Plasmodium berghei infected male wistar rats. Fifty (50) male wistar rats, weighing 100 to 150g, were allotted into 5 groups (n=7). Group 2 (negative control) was infected but not treated, groups 3-5 which were infected received 250mg/kg b.w each of CP and VA in combination and 4mg/kg b.w of the two reference ACTs.

According to new data released by The Lancet on World Diabetes Day, the number of adults with diabetes has more than quadrupled since 1990, reaching over 800 million globally. The alarming rise in diabetes over the last three decades can be attributed to increasing obesity rates, poor food marketing, sedentary lifestyles, and financial difficulties. Conversely, malnourished individuals accounted for the majority of hyperglycaemia in another semi-urban/rural Indian study.

This paper uses N'gugi wa Thiong'o's The River Between and Chimamanda Ngozi Adichié's The Thing around your Neck to explore the ongoing changes brought about by interdisciplinarity in some African education systems. Its mainquest is to find a successful model of learning that reflects intercultural realities. To achieve this, it uses Zilberberg and Fontanille's tensive modelization, to analyse the intensity and extensity of the values contained in the phenomena observed in educational systems.

Rural road infrastructure is a crucial component in promoting economic growth, especially in rural economies characterized by small-scale farming. These roads are vital for connecting isolated communities to crucial social services, including education, healthcare, and markets, which support enhanced livelihood outcomes. In Kenya, rural regions are inadequately developed in terms of road infrastructure, which may hinder access to social services and perpetuate cycles of poverty among agricultural households.
