Global trends and perspectives in nanochitin research: A comprehensive review of types, properties, applications, and scientometric analysis.

This review presents a detailed exploration of global trends and prospects in nanochitin research, focusing on its types, properties, applications, and scientometric analysis. Nanochitin, a nanoscale derivative of chitin, has gained significant interest due to its unique properties, such as mechanical strength, biocompatibility, and biodegradability. This paper explores various forms of nanochitin, including chitin nanocrystals (ChNCs)/chitin nanowhiskers (ChNWs) and chitin nanofibers (ChNFs), and their broad applicability across sectors such as food, electronics, agriculture, biomedicine, environment, and cosmetics.

Gandhak Potash Blast: An Actual Sitting Over the Powder Keg-A Case Report.

An explosive is a container that is filled with material that will explode when it is thrown or dropped, or when a device inside it makes it explode. Many materials can be used in making up of a bomb individually or when mixed with some other chemical. The type of explosive that gets misused most commonly are those used in manufacturing and other commercial applications due to their easy accessibility to public.

Mental Health Impact of COVID-19 Infection on Postpartum Women from Lower and Middle-income Backgrounds in India and its Effects on Early Mother-infant Bonding: An Observational Study.

The study was designed to examine the mental health impact of COVID-19 infection in postpartum women and its effects on mother-infant bonding during the first eight weeks postpartum. Fifty-seven consenting eligible postpartum women were recruited for the study. They were assessed at two time points using standardized rating scales to measure distress and uniquely designed scales assessing COVID-19-specific outcome fears and bonding.

Comparative study of the mental health impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on health care professionals in India.

This study aimed to investigate how the psychological health of health care professionals (HCP) on COVID duty was different from those who were not directly in contact. Of 473 (76%) randomly selected respondents (doctors and nurses) to a WhatsApp request message, 450 subjects' data were finally analyzed. The prevalence of stress, anxiety and depression among HCP was 33.

A transdiagnostic evaluation of cortical inhibition in severe mental disorders using Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation.

Multiple lines of investigations suggest the presence of cortical inhibition aberrations as central to the phenotypic manifestations of severe mental disorders. Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) combined with electromyography can characterize these inhibitory processes in the motor cortex with satisfactory temporal precision. We examined TMS-evoked short- (SICI) and long-interval intracortical inhibition (LICI) and cortical silent period (CSP) as markers of GABA- (SICI) and GABA-mediated (LICI and CSP) cortical neurotransmission in symptomatic individuals with mania (n = 40), schizophrenia (n = 76), unipolar depression (n = 86), and OCD (n = 43), and compared them against similar recordings in healthy subjects (n = 125).

Optimization of process parameters for gelatin extraction from the skin of Blackspotted croaker using response surface methodology.

Utilization of waste from fish processing industry for production of value added products has attracted substantial attention. Blackspotted croaker (Protonibea diacanthus) is a marine fish having the potential of abundant supply of raw skins for production of gelatin. This study was aimed to optimize the extraction conditions for gelatin production from skin of Blackspotted croaker.

Optimisation of gelatin extraction from Unicorn leatherjacket (Aluterus monoceros) skin waste: response surface approach.

Physical properties of gelatin extracted from Unicorn leatherjacket (Aluterus monoceros) skin, which is generated as a waste from fish processing industries, were optimised using Response Surface Methodology (RSM). A Box-Behnken design was used to study the combined effects of three independent variables, namely phosphoric acid (H3PO4) concentration (0.15-0.

Heroin body packer's death in Haryana; India: a case report.

We report a case of death due to heroin leakage in a body packer, attempting to smuggle the drug by concealing it in his gastro-intestinal tract. The body was recovered 3-5 days of incidence that was confirmed by autopsy. Fifty pellets (packages) were recovered from the body, 42 identical oval shaped "egg" packages were found in the stomach out of which two were damaged, 6 in small intestine, 2 in large intestine.
