 Abstract

The increasing demand for natural and effective skincare products has led to the development of facewashes incorporating antimicrobial agents derived from plant-based sources. This study focuses on the formulation, characterization and evaluation of a facewash enriched with antimicrobial ingredients, including extracts from coconut leaves, known for their potent antimicrobial activity. The facewash formulation combines surfactants with natural extracts such as coconut leaf extract, to enhance skin health and combat microbial growth. The antimicrobial activity was assessed using standard methods against common skin pathogens, including Escherichia coli. Results demonstrated significant antimicrobial efficacy, alongside favourable pH balance, viscosity, and skin compatibility. The facewash exhibited strong cleansing performance with minimal irritation, suggesting its potential as an effective, natural alternative for daily skincare routines.

Homeopathy offers a holistic and individualized approach to dental pain management, particularly when conventional treatments are contraindicated or offer limited benefit. Boenninghausen's Therapeutic Pocket Book (TBR2) was chosen in this study due to its logical structure, emphasis on modalities and concomitants, and ease of application in busy outpatient settings where rapid yet precise prescribing is required. This retrospective audit evaluated 35 dental cases managed between 2021 and 2024 using individualized homeopathic prescriptions based on TBR2 repertorization. The most commonly encountered diagnoses were dental abscess (37%), neuralgic toothache (34%), and gingivitis (17%). Remedies such as Belladonna (26%), Hepar sulphuris calcareum (20%), and Mercurius solubilis (17%) were most frequently prescribed. Clinical improvement was observed in 88.5% of cases, with 74% of patients reporting moderate to marked relief within 48 to 72 hours. The average time to initial improvement was 2.3 days. The findings suggest that TBR2 provides an efficient and reliable framework for remedy selection in acute and suba

 Abstract

Accurate colour reproduction in print media is critically influenced by the physical properties of the substrate, yet traditional colour appearance models (CAMs) often overlook these effects. This study investigates how four common paper substrates--glossy, matte, coated, and uncoated--modulate perceived colour attributes such as chroma, lightness, and overall visual quality. Using a multifaceted methodology combining spectrophotometric measurement, psychophysical evaluation, and spatial fidelity analysis, we quantify the perceptual impact of substrate characteristics on printed colour. Empirical results reveal significant perceptual and statistical differences among substrates, with glossy and coated papers producing higher visual clarity and colour fidelity. Modifications to the CIECAM02 model incorporating substrate-specific parameters led to substantial improvements in predictive accuracy, reducing mean absolute error (MAE) by over 60% across all media. The study also introduces the concept of perceptual resilience--the ability of a substrate to maintain colour consistency under varying illumination--highlighting its potential for colour-critical applications. These findings suggest that integrating material-aware parameters into CAMs enhances their real-world reliability and positions the research within the broader imperative of sustainable, high-fidelity print production.

 Abstract

Rabindranath Tagore founded a Brahmacharya Vidyalaya in Santiniketan in 1901 with the admirable goal of promoting the pupils' mental well-being. Rabindranath Tagore established an educational institution with several key principles, including outdoor courses, diverse instruction, and closeness to nature. It is clear that raising the degree of student happiness is the aim of all these rules. A century earlier, Tagore had employed similar positive psychology ideas in his educational trials. The current study's modest purpose is to trace Tagore's educational achievements in vocational and technical education. Vocational training is also vitally important for the pupils. The students will be able to support themselves through it. In order to have the opportunity to establish themselves in their lives, the students must receive training in their respective disciplines. Vocationalization of education is quite prevalent in India's 21st-century educational system. Since they are in school, students typically receive vocational training as part of their education.

 Abstract

This article offers a critical and theoretically grounded analysis of Pixar Animation Studios' Up (2009) through the lens of modern film appreciation theory. Exploring the film's narrative structures, visual design, and emotional thematics, it argues that Up exemplifies animation's capacity to negotiate memory, loss, and intergenerational desire for adventure within a popular cinematic framework. Drawing on theoretical approaches from David Bordwell, Murray Smith, and Paul Wells, the study analyzes Up's use of montage, character alignment, and genre hybridity to engage viewers affectively while staging ethical questions about grief and human connection. The paper contends that Up not only mobilizes familiar conventions of family animation but also disrupts narrative expectations through poignant affective sequences, generating complex cultural meanings about aging, memory, and hope. Ultimately, Up demonstrates Pixar's ability to blend mass appeal with sophisticated emotional storytelling, reinforcing animation's status as a culturally and ideologically resonant art form.

 Abstract

Electrocardiogram (ECG)-based arrhythmia detection plays a pivotal role in modern cardiac healthcare, offering early diagnosis of potentially fatal heart conditions. With the advent of deep learning, especially Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), automatic detection of arrhythmias has significantly improved. This paper provides a comprehensive review of recent advancements in ECG arrhythmia detection, emphasizing the application of 2D CNNs on time-frequency representations of ECG signals. We present our implementation of a 2D CNN-based model evaluated on the MIT-BIH Arrhythmia Database, achieving an accuracy of 86.12%. Additionally, we explore emerging approaches including transformer-based architectures (e.g., ECG-BERT), self-supervised learning, and federated learning. These innovations aim to enhance model generalization, address data scarcity, and ensure patient data privacy. The study concludes with proposed directions for future research, including real-time deployment on wearable devices and hybrid models combining CNNs with transformers.
