 Abstract

Abstract- Adolescent students influence by social media use is associated with poorer academic achievement . According to a University of Delaware study, grades declined as more people used social media on a variety of platforms. The study also emphasized the necessity of programs that raise knowledge of ethical social media use and encourage parental involvement as interventions to enhance academic achievement. This study investigates the relationship between adolescent students' academic achievement and their use of social media. Adolescent students are spending more time on the internet, frequently at the price of their academics, as a result of the growing popularity of apps like Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and Snapchat. Using secondary data from previous studies as well as primary data from surveys, this study finds that excessive social media use has a major detrimental effect on students' academic performance. The study ends with recommendations for ways to lessen these adverse consequences, such as teaching digital literacy, time management techniques, and institutional or parental supervisor.

 Abstract

Diabetes mellitus is a long-term metabolic disease marked by high blood sugar levels brought on by deficiencies in either the action or secretion of insulin, or both. As the global prevalence of diabetes continues to rise, there is an increasing demand for effective complementary therapies. Herbal formulations rich in bioactive phytoconstituents have demonstrated promising antidiabetic potential, offering a safer adjunct to conventional pharmacotherapy. Using a combination of traditional antidiabetic herbs, Momordica dioica (spine gourd), Cinnamomum zeylanicum (cinnamon), Zingiber officinale (ginger), Ocimum basilicum (basil), and Citrus limon (lemon peel), this effort concentrated on creating and testing herbal tea bags. Several formulation and evaluation tests, such as physicochemical parameters, moisture content (6%), pH (6.86), antimicrobial tests, organoleptic assessment (colour, aroma, mouthfeel) and antidiabetic potential assessment were performed on the tea bags. According to the performed study, every parameter was within specification, and the tea bags showed good stability and infusion efficiency over time. The presence of flavonoids, saponins, alkaloids, and tannins compounds with antidiabetic qualities was verified by phytochemical screening. The herbal tea formulation was determined to be physicochemically stable, organoleptically acceptable, and to have potential antidiabetic action. These findings indicate that the herbal tea formulation could be used as an adjuvant phytopharmaceutical in the treatment of diabetes mellitus.

 Abstract

Athletes often demand high physical endurance and faster recovery, leading to increasing reliance on nutraceuticals. Herbal nutraceuticals, derived from traditional medicinal plants like Ashwagandha, Safed Musli, Shilajit, and Gokshura, provide natural alternatives to synthetic supplements. This study aims to formulate a plant-based nutraceutical to enhance athletic performance, endurance, recovery, and overall health. The selected herbs are known for their adaptogenic, anti-inflammatory, immune-boosting, and stamina-enhancing properties. The formulation was prepared using whey protein as a nutritional base, followed by physicochemical evaluations including amino acid profiling and mineral analysis. The findings support the potential of these herbal combinations in promoting performance and recovery in athletes.

 Abstract

The increasing demand for reliable and secure electrical power distribution has highlighted two major challenges faced by utility providers: power theft and faults in transmission line loads. Power theft not only results in significant economic losses but also affects the stability of the power grid, while undetected faults in transmission lines can lead to equipment damage, blackouts, and safety hazards. This research proposes an integrated system designed to simultaneously prevent power theft and manage electrical transmission line load faults, enhancing the overall efficiency and security of the power distribution network.The system employs a combination of smart sensors, microcontroller-based units, and technologies to monitor electrical parameters in real time. Any irregularities between recorded energy usage and actual consumption trigger alerts for suspected theft, while load imbalances, short circuits, or overloads on transmission lines are promptly detected and diagnosed. The system architecture supports automatic response mechanisms, including circuit isolation and fault indication, which reduce downtime and maintenance costs.
