Cervical cancer cells develop in the area of the uterus that attaches to the vagina or the cervix. Various strains of the human papillomavirus, a sexually transmitted disease, are the primary cause of most cervical cancers (HPV). Therefore, the goal of this study was to protect women between the ages of 25 and 40 from developing cervical cancer. Therefore, this study aimed to prevent cervical cancer in women between the ages of 25 and 40. The aim and objectives of the study is to assess the knowledge regarding the prevention of cervical cancer among women and to assess the significance of the association relationship between post-test knowledge scores." The research design selected for the study was pre-experimental one group pre-test post-test research design". Non-probability convenience sampling technique was used to obtain 60 samples at selected are of Visnagar. Pretest done by structured knowledge questionnaire, after pre-test sensitization programme given to women. The Ost test is done using the same questionnaire. The data analysis showed that the mean value of the pre-test and post-test was 7.41 and 23.2, respectively, and the pre-test and post-test standard deviation of the value were 3.97. 4.89). The average disparity was (15.79). The estimated "t" value (25.58) was higher than the table value (1.67). This demonstrated that the knowledge levels of women were significantly different between the pre and post-test. Therefore, it is obvious that the sensitization campaign had a beneficial effect on women's knowledge levels. Thus, it was clear that sensitizing programmes had a positive impact on women's knowledge levels.
Following delivery, women may feel a variety of pains and discomforts, including cramping pain brought on by uterine involution, in which the uterus contracts to stop blood loss and return to its pre-pregnancy size. This study examined the impact of kegal exercise and the prone posture on postpartum moms' spasmodic discomfort and uterine involution. “The research design selected for the study was pre experimental research design”. “Non Probability purposive sampling techniques” were used to collect 60 postnatal mothers. “Numerical pain rating scale to assess pain and clinical proforma to assess involution of uterus” was administered to conduct the pre-test and the post test. Each sample received the Kegel exercise (10 secs three times per day for three days) and the prone position (3 to 5 mints three times per day for three days) after the pretest pain and fundal height levels were evaluated. After three days, the same scale was used to assess pain and fundal height. The mean scores for the fundal height and pain pre-tests were 7.66 and 7.83, respectively. Post-test mean scores for fundal height and pain were 3.86 and 4.1, respectively. The pre-test fundal height and pain score had standard deviations of 1.77 and 1.37, and the post-test fundal height and pain score had standard deviations of 1.86 and 2.00. Age, educational attainment, and age of menarche were important factors in the calculated chi square value, but other variables were insignificant. The study's findings supported the notion that the prone posture and the Kegel exercise helped postpartum mothers' fundal height and pain.
The pathogenic microorganisms that cause infection, such as "bacteria, viruses, parasites, or fungus," can spread from one person to another either directly or indirectly. Infection spreads through direct contact from person to person, contact of body fluids, any secretions or even the fomite used by the infected person. The oral fecal route can be summarized into five f: - finger, food, fluid, feces, and flies. The Aim and objective of the study were to assess the knowledge regarding Five 'F' diseases transmission among mothers of under-five children to evaluate the effectiveness of sensitization program on knowledge regarding Five 'F' of disease transmission among mothers of under-five children and to find out the association between post-test knowledge scores and selected demographic variables among mothers of under-five children. "Pre-experimental research design" was used for the study and data were collected from 60 under five mothers by "nonprobability convenient sampling method", through a structured knowledge questionnaire. Data were analyzed using "descriptive and inferential statistics" such as standard deviation, mean, and chi-square tests. The mean post-test knowledge score (22.62±3.37) was higher than the mean pretest knowledge score (13.3±3.30). The calculated value (15.28) was more significant than the table value (1.67) at 0.05 level of significance, that shows the sensitization program was effective in increasing the knowledge regarding the prevention of "Five f" (finger, food, fluid, feces, flies) diseases transmission among mothers of under-five children.
Oniomania, often known as the "compulsive buying disorder," is characterised by excessive shopping thoughts and actions that cause discomfort or damage. The main aim and objectives of the study were to assess and compare the oniomania among working women and men, and find out the association between oniomania with selected demographic variables among working women and men. The research design selected for the study was non-experimental comparative descriptive research design. A non-probability convenience sampling technique was used to obtain sample of 120 (60-women and 60-men) working women and men who satisfied the inclusion criteria. The modified compulsive buying scale is used to assess oniomania, this is a 5-point scale and the total score is 45. After assessing the pre-test of oniomania, it is higher in working women compared to men. The mean of the working women and working men was (30.36) and (14.66) and the Standard Deviation of the working women and working men was (9.74) and (5.24). The Mean difference was (15.7). Working women mean was more than working men mean. This showed a significant difference between working women and working men on oniomania. The calculated chi square value was significant with education and monthly income, and other variables were insignificant. This study concluded that the prevalence rate of oniomania was higher in working women than men. Keywords: , , .
Stress is a common occurrence in daily life; sometimes, it will be a reaction or sometimes a stimulus. The aim and objective of the study were to assess the stress level among old age people and the effectiveness of dance therapy in reducing stress. "The research design selected for the study was pre-experimental one group pre-test and post-test research design". A non-probability convenience sampling technique was used to obtain a sample of 60 old age people who satisfied the inclusion criteria. The modified psychological stress assessment scale, a standardized measure for assessing the stress level among old age people, was administered to conduct the pre-test and the post-test. This tool contains 30 items. This is a 4-point scale, and the total score is 90. After assessing the pre-test stress level, dance therapy was provided to each sample for 30 days for 45 minutes per day each morning. After 30 days, stress was measured using the same modified psychological stress assessment scale. The Mean of the pre-test and post-test was (61.05) and (25.85), and the Standard Deviation of the pre-test and post-test was (11.89) and (8.27). The Mean difference was (35.2). This showed that there was a significant difference between pre-test and post-test levels of stress scores among old age people. The calculated chi-square value was significant with age, educational status and duration of stay at nursing homes; other variables were not significant. From the study results, it was concluded that Dance Therapy effectively reduced the stress level among geriatrics.
Cissus pallida is used traditionally to treat various ailments like liver diseases, ulcer, wounds, skin disorders, CNS disorders, management of diabetes etc. In this present investigation, hepatoprotective activity was done in stem and wood parts of methanolic extract of Cissus pallida at the doses of (200mg/kg, 400 mg/kg) by paracetamol induced hepatotoxicity. The results obtained on 14th day and after 28 days was significant (p by FT-IR. Secondary metabolites like total flavonoids, total phenolics, tannins and alkaloids were estimated. The findings proves that the plant Cissus pallida shows hepatoprotective and antioxidant activity.
