 Abstract

Background: Osteoporosis is a silent, progressive bone disease characterized by low bone mass and increased fragility, predominantly affecting postmenopausal women due to estrogen deficiency. In India, particularly in rural and semi-urban areas like District Kangra, Himachal Pradesh, the prevalence of osteoporosis is high, yet awareness remains critically low. Aim: To assess the effectiveness of a structured teaching program on improving knowledge and preventive practices regarding osteoporosis among postmenopausal women in a selected area of District Kangra, Himachal Pradesh. Methods: A quasi-experimental one-group pretest-posttest design was used. A total of 60 postmenopausal women aged 45-65 years were selected using purposive sampling. A structured knowledge questionnaire and a preventive practice checklist were administered before and after the intervention. The structured teaching program included educational sessions using lectures and visual aids. Data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. Results: In the pretest, 33.3% of women had inadequate knowledge and only 6.6% had adequate knowledge. Post-intervention, 61.6% demonstrated adequate knowledge. The mean knowledge score increased from 13.12 to 21.58. Similarly, preventive practices improved significantly, with adequate practice levels rising from 6.7% to 48.3%. Statistical analysis revealed a significant difference between pretest and posttest scores (p < 0.05), indicating the effectiveness of the intervention. Conclusion: The structured teaching program was effective in significantly improving knowledge and preventive practices regarding osteoporosis among postmenopausal women. Such interventions should be integrated into community health strategies, particularly in underserved rural regions, to reduce the burden of osteoporosis-related complications.

 Abstract

Intrahepatic Cholestasis of Pregnancy (ICP) is a hepatobiliary disorder occurring typically in the late second and third trimesters. It is characterized by pruritus, elevated serum bile acids, and abnormal liver function tests, with potential risks such as preterm birth and fetal demise Prevalence: 0.2 - 2% of Pregnancies. It poses significant maternal discomfort and is associated with adverse perinatal outcomes such as Preterm Birth, Fetal Distress, and Sudden Intrauterine Fetal Demise. The exact etiology is Multifactorial, involving Genetic predisposition, Hormonal Influences, and Environmental factors. From an Ayurvedic standpoint, ICP closely correlates with Pittaja Vyadhi, Yakrut Vikara of Garbhini particularly involving Kamala (jaundice) and Pittaja Kandu (itching), resulting from Pitta Dushti and obstruction of Raktavaha and Pittavaha Srotas. The condition is primarily driven by Agni Mandya and Ama formation, which further exacerbate the accumulation of morbid Pitta in the Yakrita (liver). Ayurvedic management emphasizes Pitta Shamana (pacification of Pitta), Rakta Shodhana (blood purification), and Yakrit Uttejaka (liver stimulation). Dietary modifications focusing on Madhura, Sheeta, and Snigdha qualities, alongside lifestyle practices that reduce heat exposure and mental stress, are crucial to balance Pitta and ensure maternal well-being. Pre-Conceptional administration of Shodhana, Rasayana and adherence to appropriate Pathya may help in preventing the occurrence of Intrahepatic Cholestasis of Pregnancy (ICP).

 Abstract

Sri Aurobindo's Savitri: A Legend and a Symbol transcends conventional literary genres by combining elements of epic narrative, spiritual philosophy, and metaphysical inquiry. Central to its power is the portrayal of Savitri not merely as a mythic heroine, but as a conscious embodiment of divine Shakti, a luminous force who rewrites the destiny of man through spiritual mastery rather than emotional devotion alone. This paper explores the inner quest of Savitri from a feminine lens, viewing her confrontation with Death as a journey of transformative resistance rather than romantic perseverance. In doing so, Sri Aurobindo redefines womanhood, not as a passive receptacle but as an active redeemer and spiritual equal. By engaging with ancient symbolism, yogic philosophy, and poetic revelation, this paper positions Savitri as a foundational text of spiritual feminism with global contemporary resonance.

 Abstract

Targeted medication delivery remains a major challenge in pharmaceutical sciences. Made of solid biodegradable lipids, Solid Lipid Nanoparticles (SLNs) are a potential colloidal carrier system that combines the advantages of polymeric nanoparticles, emulsions, and liposomes while minimizing their disadvantages. SLNs enhance bioavailability, protect labile drugs from degradation, and enable controlled, site-specific administration. This page discusses many preparation methods, including solvent-based processes, high shear homogenization, ultrasonication, microemulsion dilution, and supercritical fluid techniques. Characterization methods such particle size analysis, zeta potential measurement, electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, and differential scanning calorimetry are highlighted. SLNs are still a developing and important technology in modern drug delivery systems, and they show versatility in a range of administration methods, including parenteral, nasal, pulmonary, ophthalmic, rectal, and topical. Despite some limitations, such as poor drug loading, sophisticated systems like Lipid Drug Conjugates (LDCs) and Nanostructured Lipid Carriers (NLCs) provide useful solutions in addition to their growing uses in gene delivery and cancer treatment.
