Abstract The voices and experiences of diverse people and communities are systemically marginalised and neglected from mental health literature, policy and practice; this is a time of need, and we must move with the times. Taking a critical, intersectional lens to mental health focusing especially o...

Background: Indoor exposure to tobacco smoke in India is a significant social concern, primarily because it poses severe health risks not only to smokers but also to non-smokers who are exposed to secondhand smoke. The objective of the present study is to investigate the efficacy of current state an...

Qualitative research conducted in a multilingual setting is an arduous, yet essential, endeavour. As part of my PhD research program, I set out to conduct qualitative process evaluation of a stroke trial in 11 languages in the Indian subcontinent. In this article, I reflect upon the challenges, ove...

Background: With advances in pediatric oncology care, the outcome of children with neuroblastoma has improved. However, in low and middle-income countries (LMICs), the survival rate remains low. This study was conducted because of the paucity of data regarding the clinico-epidemiological profile and...

Background: Breakthrough seizures are an essential aspect to consider while treating epilepsy. No study has been done on the precipitating factors for breakthrough seizures in the tribal area of Jharkhand. Hence, awareness regarding the possible precipitating factors of breakthrough seizures is vita...

A comprehensive theoretical study of closed-form rigid-body modes of a free-free and translationally edge-restrained Euler-Bernoulli beam is presented. Accurate vibrational analysis of a free-free-free-free plate is not possible without the inclusion of degenerate rigid-body beamwise admissible func...

Line failures, particularly in the form of N-1 contingencies, are a significant cause of interruptions in power grids, negatively affecting system reliability. Effective risk-based contingency analysis (RBCA) is essential in modern power systems to address increasing uncertainties and complexities....

A comprehensive theoretical study of the free vibration of rotationally restrained rectangular uniform isotropic Mindlin’s plate is presented. The plate mode shape is assumed to be a weighted combination of the product of the Timoshenko beam functions in the either direction, which are previously ge...

The best way to impart anatomical knowledge remains a subject of significant discussion. A thorough grasp of anatomy is essential for surgeons to perform safe surgical procedures. Effective teaching methods are, therefore, crucial to support safe clinical practice. We analyzed various approaches to...

Cultivated pasture grasses contribute forage to more than 40% of cattle produced in 11 southern states in the USA. In recent years the increasing intoxication of cattle feeding on pasture grasses raised serious concerns about their palatability. While molecular and metagenomics techniques have revea...

The heat conduction equation in the context of generalized theories of thermoelasticity is used to study the propagation of plane harmonic waves in a thin, flat, infinite, homogeneous, thermoelastic isotropic plate of finite width. The frequency equations corresponding to the symmetric and antisymme...

The link between ESG and financial performance is still under debate. In this study, we explore which aspects of ESG specifically drive market valuations through both systematic and idiosyncratic risk channels. We analyze the impact of the three core ESG pillars, 10 subcategories, and associated con...
