Abstract: This study examines the relationship between job satisfaction and organizational commitment among IT employees in Techno Park, Trivandrum. Using a sample of 125 employees, the analysis reveals a moderate to strong positive correlation (r = 0.65, p < 0.001) between job satisfaction and organizational commitment, indicating that higher job satisfaction is associated with increased organizational commitment. Regression analysis further confirms this relationship, with job satisfaction significantly predicting organizational commitment (?1 = 0.45, p < 0.001), explaining 55% of the variance in organizational commitment. These findings underscore the critical role of job satisfaction in enhancing organizational commitment and suggest that organizations should focus on improving job satisfaction to foster greater employee commitment.

Objective: 1. To determine the difference between pre-test and post test score in knowledge and attitude of first aid management. 2. To evaluate the effectiveness of technology-based instruction on first aid management via post test score. 3. To determine the correlation between knowledge and attitude regarding first aid management in the post-test. 4. To find out the association of knowledge and attitude between selected demographic variables in the pre-test and post-test. Methodology: A quantitative research approach, one group pretest and post-test design was used. A total of 100 college students were selected from a college in Chennai, India, using purposive sampling. The investigator collected data using Self Structured questionnaire and five-point Likert scale. The data was analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. Results: The study found significant improvements in knowledge and attitudes towards first aid management among college students following technology-based instruction. Initially, 58% of students had inadequate knowledge and 42% had moderately adequate knowledge. After the intervention, 96% had adequate knowledge and 4% had moderately adequate knowledge. In terms of attitude, 77% of students initially had an unfavorable attitude, while 23% had a moderately favorable attitude. Post-intervention, 94% had a favorable attitude and 6% had a moderately favorable attitude. The paired "t" test results were statistically significant, with a value of t = 44.833 for knowledge and t = 35.071 for attitude, both at the p<0.001 level.

The microbiome is best understood as a virtual organ of the body. This study has been undertaken to give detailed look on human gut microbiome and its role in maintaining health which is a major subject for research today. A normal and well balance gut microbiome plays important roles in drug and nutrient metabolism ,host protection , immune system development, immune modulation , maintain gut barrier , forms the gut brain axis and so on .Various maternal and environmental factors affect development of gut flora in each individuals .Also it is to be noted that the composition of gut flora may vary within individuals. Dysbiosis is the imbalance caused to normal gut flora. The dysbiosis can give rise to various disease conditions mainly metabolic disorders.
