Solar-driven photocatalytic ceramic membrane reactors from tunisian clay for efficient paracetamol degradation

Pharmaceutical residues such as paracetamol are increasingly detected in aquatic environments, raising concerns about their persistence and potential ecological impact. In this study, a solar-driven photocatalytic membrane reactor (PMR) was developed using low-cost ceramic membra...

Relationship Quality Among Married Indian Couples: A Narrative Review

Background Indian marriages have traditionally been understood as fulfilling religious commitments, forming alliances between families and fostering companionship between spouses. However, relationship quality in such marriages is shaped by structural and cultural factors that We...

Self-help Groups as community development institutions and the Sustainable Development Goals: A policy-centered analysis of rural Haryana

Self-help groups (SHGs) are among the most widespread community development institutions in rural India: village-based, all-women collectives pursuing community change through savings, credit, and federation. Their alignment with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is rarely...

Polysaccharide Reengineering: Strategic Modifications and Biofunctional Outcomes of Natural Polysaccharides

Natural polysaccharides have attracted considerable interest in pharmaceutical and biomedical applications. However, native polysaccharides often possess limitations, like poor solubility, inadequate mechanical strength, limited stability, and insufficient control over their func...

Orbiting towards myopathy: new paradigms of muscle atrophy in spaceflight

Abstract Protracted exposure to microgravity during spaceflight imposes stress on the human body which disrupts physiological homeostasis. Skeletal muscles are among the most severely affected, and they are characterized by rapid muscle atrophy. Although basal autophagy maintains...

Financial inclusion as a pathway to sustainability goals for marginalized communities in India

India has made remarkable strides over the past two decades in expanding financial access through digital payment systems, mobile banking, and ambitious government programs. Yet this journey toward universal financial inclusion reveals a sobering paradox: as we bring more people...

Smart Tourism 2.0: unpacking the impact of AI technologies and IoT on travel experiences for Generation Z

Purpose The rapid advancement of digital technologies is reshaping the tourism industry, creating more connected, personalized and efficient travel experiences for modern travelers. This study aims to explore how Smart Tourism 2.0, using Artificial Intelligence (AI) and the Inter...

Interface engineered perpendicular magnetic anisotropy-controlled propagation of magnetic domain

We report the impact of ferromagnetic layer thickness and stack configuration on the magnetic properties, perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA), modified magnetization switching mechanisms, and creep regime domain wall (DW) dynamics, including their propagation velocity, in a P...

Unveiling the Potential of Biogenic Nanoparticles for Wastewater Remediation: A Systematic Review

In recent decades, escalating water pollution driven by demographic growth, industrial development, agricultural intensification, and rapid urban expansion has emerged as a critical global environmental challenge. Contamination of water bodies by heavy metals, organic compounds,...

GRAN-EEG: A ghost-residual attention network for subject-independent EEG-based objective pain recognition

Objective pain assessment is important for supporting clinical decision-making, particularly when patients are unable to provide reliable self-reports. This study proposes GRAN-EEG, a Ghost-Residual Attention Network for subject-independent pain recognition using electroencephalo...

Equity in the Courtroom: A Constitutional Reappraisal of Access to Justice in India

Access to justice forms an important part of the constitutional ideal of India, as evident from the promise made in the Preamble to guarantee social, economic and political justice to all. However, in reality, access to courts and law continues to be extremely challenging for man...

Mapping global research on interactions of conventional, organic, and natural farming systems and soil health with respect to microbiomes and greenhouse gas emissions

Sustainable agricultural practices are receiving increasing scientific attention for their potential to mitigate climate change, support food production, and maintain long-term soil health. Conventional, organic, and natural farming systems differ substantially in management prac...

Landslide Susceptibility Mapping in the Garhwal Himalaya Integrating Seismic Shaking and Active‐Fire Predictors With an XGBoost Model

ABSTRACT The Garhwal Himalaya of Uttarakhand, India, is a tectonically active, deeply dissected orogen in which landsliding is conditioned by a heterogeneous mix of topographic, geological, hydro‐climatic, seismic and anthropogenic controls. Reliable, high‐resolution susceptibili...

Zirconium Dioxide Nanoparticles in Bone Tissue Engineering: Recent Advances, Biological Interactions, and Future Perspectives

Bone defects from trauma, tumor resection, infection, and degenerative disease remain a large clinical problem, and the grafting strategies used to treat them still carry familiar limitations: donor-site morbidity for autografts, variable integration and supply constraints for al...

Novel HEP-FIB score combined with machine learning models for non-invasive prediction of significant hepatic fibrosis in chronic hepatitis B patients: a single-center, internally validated study

Chronic hepatitis B (CHB) remains a major global health burden. Assessment of hepatic fibrosis is important for risk stratification and guiding treatment in CHB. Liver biopsy, the reference standard for fibrosis staging, is invasive, and fraught with potential complications, crea...

From Partition to the Present: Borders, Memory and the Politics of Conflict in Indian Political Thought

The Partition of British India in 1947 is often treated either as the violent birth of two nation-states or as the starting point of a bilateral security rivalry. This article argues that such approaches remain incomplete so long as they separate the domestic history of nationali...

Integrated phytoremediation and MgO Si HAP biochar for heavy metal remediation and maize productivity

Heavy metal contamination in agricultural soils limits crop productivity and presents food safety risks. This study explores an integrated approach combining phytoremediation (PHY) and biochar amendments, specifically a Magnesium Oxide–Silicon–Hydroxyapatite (MOSi-HAP) biochar sy...

Advancements and challenges in lithium–oxygen battery technology: A comprehensive overview

Lithium–oxygen (Li–O₂) batteries are attractive beyond-lithium-ion systems because oxygen is stored outside the positive electrode and the Li₂O₂-forming reaction provides a theoretical specific energy of approximately 3500 Wh kg⁻¹ when oxygen is excluded from the carried mass. Th...
