Lip prints are defined as normal wrinkles and grooves present in the zone of transition of human lip, between the inner labial mucosa and outer skin, examination of which is known as Cheiloscopy. Those patterns are identifiable as early as the sixth week of intrauterine life. This study explores the potential of using lip prints to estimate an individual's age through the Afchar Bayat classification system. Lip print samples were collected from individuals of varying ages 21 to 50 and analyzed using the Afchar Bayat classification system. The findings of this study contribute to the development of new methods and techniques for age estimation in forensic science and highlight the importance of lip print analysis in interdisciplinary research.

This article discusses the application of color psychology in advertising based on the psychological and cultural meaning of colors. After a case study and literature review process, actual case studies of domestic and international firms are reviewed to supply workable examples of concepts addressed. The study examines cross-cultural preference for colors and contextual factors affecting color perception so that businesses can develop strategies that speak across different audiences. Knowledge of the affective and cognitive reactions to color can offer significant insights into how colors can induce certain moods and trigger certain reactions from consumers. Multisensory effects of color, including how color combines with other sensory information such as sound and texture, add deep insights into the whole effect of colors on consumer experiences. Through an understanding of the psychological and cultural meanings of colors, companies can excel and use color options to better their advertising campaigns and encourage positive customer reactions. The outcomes of this research provide insights into the exact feelings and associations the various colors invoke in customers, and the ways these influence their attitudes, preferences, and buying habits.

Abstract: Postpartum stress is a common yet often under-addressed issue faced by new mothers, manifesting in physical, emotional, and psychological challenges after childbirth. These stressors can include fatigue, anxiety, mood swings, and depression, significantly impacting the health and well-being of the mother and her bond with the newborn. In modern medical settings, postpartum care predominantly focuses on physical recovery, but Ayurveda offers a more holistic approach, emphasizing the restoration of balance in the mind, body, and spirit. According to Ayurveda, this phase is marked by an imbalance in Vata dosha--the element of movement and change--which becomes aggravated due to the physical strain of childbirth. The disturbance of Vata can lead to emotional instability, anxiety, and overall fatigue. To manage postpartum stress through Ayurveda. Ayurveda texts were reviewed to manage the postpartum stress. Databases such as PubMed, Shodhganga, and Ayush Research Portal, were searched using keywords like Stress, Sutika Paricharya, Postpartum Ayurveda.Ayurvedic understanding of postpartum stress and highlights how its holistic approaches offer significant benefits in managing this challenging period.

This research provides an extensive examination of the numerous outcomes produced by West Asian crisis events starting from the October 7, 2023, attacks and Israeli military actions against them, which affect the United States' global engagement in international relations. The paper also evaluates how the escalating West Asian crisis challenged the United States' dominant position as the global hegemony. The dissertation studies the complex political systems modified by current conflicts, which they evaluate with details about the recent events that test the United States' former global power leadership position. The research investigates changes in regional power structures, which show how China and Russia became faster-emerging alternative powers and how regional countries display increasing self-absorption through multi-alignment foreign policies (Acharya, 2016). The assessment explores how the US traditional regional leadership has changed through these developments. The dissertation evaluates how far the crisis has displayed constraints in U.S. power projection capabilities and diplomatic capabilities. The traditional U.S. alliances in the region as well as their present evolutionary stage were significantly impacted. This research evaluates how the conflicts influence the global status of the US dollar as well as its position as a leading reserve currency. The research evaluates the economic consequences of the crisis, which involves the analysis of energy market dynamics and trade routes as well as financial stability changes (Walt, 2018). This investigation will conduct an assessment of security ramifications that show developments within three domains: non-state actor proliferation and new regional instabilities that emerge as well as threats to global security frameworks. The research will evaluate whether West Asian events speed the transition from US unipolar leadership to a multipolar global system, examining how the West Asian crisis promotes regional powers to establish dominance over their homelands. Through thorough analysis, this research argues that the situation in West Asia functioned as a crucial trigger, exposing America's internal policy flaws, which weakened its international ethical stance and moral leadership position and advanced a worldwide power shift toward a distributed multiple power structure. A thorough analysis of US foreign operations, military tactics, and messaging efforts will establish how this crisis reduced US influence and changed global views about its world leadership role during modern times of global integration and volatility. The research investigates both the short-term and enduring effects that the crisis has on the international order structure.

The fisheries industry acts as a primary economic engine which supports both Karnataka state's financial development and sustenance of coastal community inhabitants. The successful operation of this sector depends heavily on supply chain management practices which need to remain effective and sustainable. This research investigates the SCM practices used in Karnataka fisheries through detailed examination of procurement procedures in combination with cold chain logistics systems and storage solutions and distribution mechanisms and quality control protocols and market connection platforms. The investigative research examines traditional and modern technology integration methods as well as supply chain challenges during different supply chain stages. Government policies alongside cooperative societies and private entities receive specific analysis regarding their impact on improving the fisheries supply chain effectiveness. This research combines both primary data from fishermen and middlemen and exporters together with officials and secondary data from government reports and industry publications. Research indicates that infrastructure development along with digital traceability solutions made progress yet poor refrigeration equipment plus unstable market requirements and operational challenges remain unaddressed. The study concludes with propositions to enhance supply chain management practices together with improved stakeholder coordination and sustainable approaches for increasing Karnataka's fishery sector competitiveness throughout domestic and worldwide markets.

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has emerged as a formidable global health threat, undermining the effectiveness of antibiotics and other antimicrobial agents. The alarming rise in AMR is attributed to the overuse and misuse of antibiotics, poor infection control practices, and inadequate surveillance. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of current trends and challenges in AMR, highlighting its epidemiology, mechanisms, and impact on human health. The review reveals that AMR is a complex problem, with significant regional variations in resistance patterns. The emergence of multidrug-resistant organisms, such as carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), poses a significant threat to public health. The review also highlights the need for enhanced surveillance, improved infection control practices, and antimicrobial stewardship to combat AMR. Furthermore, the review emphasizes the importance of addressing the social and economic determinants of AMR, including poverty, lack of access to healthcare, and inadequate sanitation. The development of new antimicrobial agents and alternative therapies is also critical to addressing the growing threat of AMR. Overall, this review provides a comprehensive overview of the current trends and challenges in AMR, highlighting the need for a multifaceted approach to address this growing global health threat.
