In Ayurveda, the role of Acharya Sushruta is very important. Acharya Sushruta was not only one of the earliest pioneers of surgery in the world but also one among the earliest to study the human body. Acharya Sushruta was the first in the field of Ayurveda who has defined the clinical importance of structural components of the body like Asthi (Bones), Jala (plexus), Kurcha (brush like structure), Sira (vein), Dhamni (artery), Snayu, etc. Snayu is one of the important anatomical structures in the human body which is strong and holds all the joints for the purposeful function. Similar to Snayu, in modern anatomy, ligaments and tendons are described as human structures which are attached bone to bone and muscle to bone respectively. All the joints are bound together by Snayu. According to shape and location the Snayu are of four types: Pratanvati, Vritta, Sushira & Prithula. Snayu are very much similar to ligaments, so excessive stretching, tearing or injury to ligaments causes severe pain. Ligament injuries are the most common amongst the athletes or sports person. Common ligamental injuries are to the knee, ankle, wrist, thumb, neck or back ligament with ankle injury being the most common occurring injury. Keywords: Snayu, Ligaments, Injuries.

Pakshaghata is one among the vatavyadi, considered under astamahagada, which is swabhavatahduschikitsya. When the greatly aggravated vata invades the urdhwa, adha and thiryakgatadhamanis, then it destroys any one half of the body which is called as pakshaghata. By this, affected side of the body becomes incapable of any work. In Vatavyadhi, basti is considered as the best treatment, but for pakshaghatasneha is the line of treatment. Acharya charaka also explained swedana and snehayuktavirechana in pakshagata.So, Erandataila is selected for virechana in the patients suffering from pakshaghata.Virechana is the chiefly advocated, purificatory measure in this disease and all the acharyas mentioned, virechana is one among the chief line of treatment for pakshaghata. So it is bagged in the present study for treatment purpose. In pakshagata, snehana and snehayuktavirechana explained by acharyavagbhata.Eranda is said to be sresthavatahara&taila is considered best to combat aggravated vata. For that, in this study Erandataila is taken for nityavirechana to the patient of Pakshaghat which consists the above & fulfil both the needs. As per Vagbhatapurvakarma is not necessary for nityavirechana. Thus, considering the above fact a Clinical study to evaluate the efficacy of Virechana Karma in pakshaghata is planned along with its conceptual study as mentioned in Brihatrayee.

Farmers have been very precious for societies for ages. Their active experiments, valuable knowledge about their surroundings, environment, and crops’ requirements have been a vital part of society. However, the psychological perspectives have been a hole in the loop of farming. Hence, this study has investigated the antecedents of entrepreneurial behaviors of farmers with the mediating risk of their entrepreneurial self-efficacy (ESE). The population chosen for this study was the farming community of suburbs of China, and a sample size of 300 was selected for the data collection. This is a survey study, where a structured questionnaire was adapted on a five-point Likert scale. The data were collected from the farming community to know their psychological and behavioral preferences about their profession. This study has produced interesting results that education, training, and intrinsic motivation play a vital role in farmers’ ESE, affecting their entrepreneurial behaviors. This study will add to the body of knowledge and provide an eminent path for emerging entrepreneurs to find more mentorship opportunities to overcome the limitations in upcoming endeavors influencing education and training.

Attention is drawn to the confusion which has been caused by the loose terminology of the anterior appendages in polychaetes, and more exact connotations are proposed. As the prostomium can be recognized as a comparable unit throughout the Polychaeta, a consideration of its constitution is deferred. In the present paper the development and constitution of the anterior region of the sabellariid worms are considered. The larval development of Phragmatopoma californica (representing the most highly advanced genus) is described, and the structure of the adult of this species is compared with that of species belonging to other genera. It is concluded that the opercular stalk arises mainly from the first segment; that the opercular paleae represent the notochaetae of the first two segments, and that the oral tentacles and the building organ are also developed from the first segment. The prostomium bears a single pair of tentacles.

In this contribution, I consider some appreciative links and qualified connections between Raewyn Connell’s work and my own. In particular, I use the example of sport, a key area in the making of boys and young men in many parts of the world, with special reference to body, practice, and theoretical and empirical conceptualizations of masculinity.

Aim- Study of Gulpha Marma and ankle joint. Objective- 1. Exact location of Gulpha Marma in limbs 2. Effect of injury to Gulpha Marma 3. Contemperory concept of Gulpha Marma and ankle joint 4. Concept of marma chikitsa in pain related to Gulpha Marma. Observation- Gulpha Marma is sandhi marma and rujakar marma. It is predominantly made up of sandhi i.e. the joint or components making the ankle joint. Injury to it causes stabhdata & khanjata. The location of Gulpha Marma is nothing but the joint between tibia, fibula and talus and other structures related to lateral aspect of ankle joint. Marma chikitsa gives tridosha triguna samanya as there is a site of prana at these points. This chikitsa acts as the pain reliever or preventional aspect of these vital sites or Marma. Conclusion- On dissection of ankle joint various structures were studied and were compared with Gulpha Marma. The injuries related to these marma’s can be studied under tendons, ligaments, vessels and bones. These can be considered as siravedhya and vatavyadhi and treated accordingly. Based upon the above observations and study we can conclude the exact location, effect of injury, relation with ankle joint of Gulpha Marma.  Keywords- Marma, Gulpha Marma, Ankle Joint, Marma Chikitsa

The relationships of resting metabolism per unit mass of body to gill and body surface areas were examined by measuring gill, body surface and fin areas of carp ranging from 0.0016 to 2250g. There was a triphasic allometry for the relationship between gill area and body mass: during the prelarval (0.0016–0.003 g) and postlarval (0.003–0.2g) stages there was a positive allometry (slopes of 7.066 and 1.222, respectively), during the juvenile and later stages (0.2–2250 g) there was a negative allometry with a slope of 0.794. There was a diphasic negative allometry for the relationship between surface area of the body or the fins and body mass, with a slope of 0.596 or 0.523 during the larval stage and 0.664 or 0.724 during the juvenile and later stages, respectively. Except for the 3rd phase (juvenile to adult) of gill area, these slopes were significantly different (P<0.01) from the slope for the relationship between resting metabolism and body mass of intact carp (0.84; value from Winberg, 1956). It is considered, therefore, that gill, body surface and fin areas do not directly regulate the resting metabolism of the fish, in the larval stage at least.
