Presently, there is a growing population of Indian users who are increasingly drawn to digital media platforms like Netflix, Amazon Prime, and Hotstar. The transition from television to these platforms commenced with the surge in smartphone usage in recent years, along with the availability of a wide array of content ranging from Western shows and Hollywood movies to local languages, all conveniently accessible in a single location. Following the lifting of the lockdown, there has been a significant surge in the number of these users. Regardless of age, individuals have shown a strong inclination towards new shows and a willingness to engage in prolonged viewing sessions from the convenience of their residences. This study report examines the factors that have contributed to the preference of Chennai users for the popular platforms Netflix, Amazon Prime, and Hotstar. The analysis additionally emphasizes the factors contributing to a substantial decline in cable and satellite television subscribers. The study aims to comprehend the factors that attract users to these platforms and provide further insight into their advantages and disadvantages. This study will provide solid data on the percentage of the population, categorized by age groups, that are more prone to watch specific OTT platforms. Consider, for instance, the vast majority of the Indian populace, particularly the elderly, who have a keen interest in viewing Amazon Prime videos due to the presence of religious content. The study has emphasized the significant impact of the COVID lockout and the subsequent rise in platform utilization. Additionally, it has identified emerging tendencies among users.
目前，越来越多的印度用户被 Netflix、Amazon Prime 和 Hotstar 等数字媒体平台所吸引。近年来，随着智能手机使用率的激增，印度用户开始从电视过渡到这些平台，同时，从西方节目和好莱坞电影到本地语言的各种内容都可以在一个地方方便地获取。解禁后，这些用户的数量大幅激增。无论年龄大小，人们都对新节目表现出强烈的偏好，并愿意在家中方便地长时间观看。本研究报告探讨了造成柴纳用户青睐 Netflix、Amazon Prime 和 Hotstar 等热门平台的因素。分析还强调了导致有线电视和卫星电视用户大幅减少的因素。本研究旨在理解这些平台吸引用户的因素，并进一步深入了解其优缺点。这项研究将提供可靠的数据，说明按年龄组分类，更倾向于观看特定 OTT 平台的人口比例。举例来说，印度的绝大多数人口，尤其是老年人，由于亚马逊 Prime 视频含有宗教内容，他们对观看亚马逊 Prime 视频有着浓厚的兴趣。该研究强调了 COVID 锁定的重大影响以及随后平台利用率的上升。此外，研究还发现了用户中出现的新趋势。

This ethnobotanical investigation was conducted in the rural commune of Bni Hadifa belonging to the Al Hoceima province (North of Morocco), to inventory the principal medicinal plants traditionally used to treat Covid-19. Ethnobotanical information was recorded from 84 inhabitants aged over 18 years in the different communes of the study area, using an ethnobotanical survey based on a questionnaire and semistructured interviews. Data were examined by surveying the relative citation frequency (RFC) and family importance value (FIV). The obtained results permitted the inventory of 40 aromatic and medicinal plants (MAPs) species owned by 20 families, the most important of which by their number of species were: Lamiaceae (12 species), Apiaceae (5 species), Asteraceae (3 species), and two species for each of Amaryllidaceae, Myrtaceae, and Rutaceae. Furthermore, the following species: Allium sativum, Thymus glandulosus, Lavandula dentata L, Citrus limon L, Eucalyptus globulus labill, Artemisia herba-alba, and Marrubium vulgare L were the most frequently cited by the RFC index. Leaves were found to be the common plant organ used to treat Covid-19, while decoction was the most frequent preparation mode. This study also showed that over 90% of the respondents proved the efficacy of the plants used against Covid-19. However, most of the users of these plants did not respect the administered doses and were unaware of the toxicity and lethal effects that could be caused by these plants when taking high doses. The results of this survey demonstrate that the plants used to combat Covid-19 may constitute a promising database for future research in the extraction and chemical analysis of potentially effective biomolecules against this virus.

India needs to electrify rickshaws because of the emissions produced by modern cars running on fossil fuels like gasoline and diesel. There are incentives, discounts, and exemptions available for the use of e-auto rickshaws. The production of electric vehicles has also been given a target by the Indian government. The Indian government has taken a number of steps to increase the availability of charging stations and a steady supply of electric cars (EVs). Even after taking all of these measures, there has been little adoption. For Indian auto drivers, the capital cost of purchasing an e-auto is expensive. To attain ideal performance, it is important to modify the present generation of traditional auto rickshaws using low-cost retrofitting. Retro-kit is created and evaluated for performance in this study by changing parameters.

Uterine fibroids are the most prominent benign tumor in females. Recently, attention has focused on the use of tranexamic acid to reduce blood loss if given prophylactically at myomectomy. We conducted this study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of perioperative tranexamic acid in blood loss reduction in many patients with uterine fibroids undergoing myomectomy et al Basrah maternity and children’s hospital in Basrah. The study was conducted at Basrah maternity and child hospital for the period from the 1st of January 2020 till the 1st of January 2023. It includes 98 (48 control who received no medication before the surgery and 50 cases patients who received IV 1 g tranexamic acid at the skin incision) ladies who planned to undergo open myomectomy. The duration of surgery was calculated in minutes, Intraoperative, postoperative, and total blood loss was measured. Abdominal pain was the commonest presenting symptom of fibroid in both case and control group (56.0% and 52.1%, respectively) and followed by AUB then the infertility. Regarding the intraoperative, postoperative, and total blood loss there’s a significant significant difference between case and control group. The operation time and hospital stay were significantly less among case group who received IV tranexamic acid. Tranexamic acid is a safe drug to reduce hemorrhage in women with fibroid subjected to open myomectomy and it has no major adverse effects.

This article introduces an innovative demarche to sustainable and integrated water resource management by proposing a new strategy for valorizing sediments retained by dams, explicitly focusing on the Moroccan context. The novel demarche presented encompasses five critical dimensions related to sediment valorization: quality, quantity, space, time, and regulation. To achieve this, we have designed an optimal valorization approach complemented by a specific valorization guide tailored to the nuances of Moroccan laws and standards. Our methodology includes a detailed quantitative analysis of retained sediments, a qualitative assessment of their physical and chemical properties, and a spatiotemporal analysis of dam siltation. The optimal valorization approach aims to maximize the use of retained sediments by identifying suitable applications. Simultaneously, the specific guide provides a methodological and regulatory framework aligned with the region's legal requirements. The quantitative analysis evaluates measures taken to quantify sediments retained by dams, while the qualitative analysis assesses their physical and chemical characteristics and suitability for various applications. The spatiotemporal analysis offers a dynamic perspective on dam siltation, emphasizing the most affected areas and the evolution of trends over time. Anchored in the Moroccan context, this research provides crucial insights into the sustainable management of water resources through the integrated valorization of sediments trapped by dams. The presented results have significant implications for watershed management and the optimization of dam operations and reservoirs. Furthermore, they pave the way for similar approaches in regions grappling with reservoir sedimentation issues.

A condition known as stunting results from a persistently low nutritional intake during the first 1000 days of life. It is characterized by a height based on age that is less than two standard deviations from the World Health Organization's (WHO) median standard. There are two categories for stunting: short (Z Score -2 SD) and very short (Z Score -3 SD). Stunting results in a number of oral health issues, including delayed milk tooth eruption, atrophy of the developing salivary glands, reduced salivary flow, and an elevated risk of dental caries. The aim of this research is to analyze the relationship between the caries index and stunting in preschool children (3-6 years) in Indonesia. This research is a cross-sectional study with a sample of 98 children taken randomly in Sidenreng Rappang Regency, Indonesia. Determination of nutritional status based on anthropometric measurements, such as height and weight measurements based on age groups. The Decay Missing Filled-Teeth (DMF-T) examination is conducted by looking at teeth that are decayed, filled and missing. Furthermore, the severity of dental caries is categorized into low (DMF-T 0-2.6), medium (DMF-T 2.7-4.4), and high (DMF-T > 4.5) with data analyzed using the chi-square test. The results of measuring nutritional status showed that 78 children (79.6%) experienced stunting. There are 17 children (17.34%) with DMF-T scores in the low category, 7 children (7,114%) in the medium category, and 26 children (26.53%) in the high category. The results of bivariate analysis show p = 0.000 so that there is a significant relationship between stunting and the severity of dental caries in preschool children in Sidenreng Rappang Regency. It is necessary to increase health promotion efforts related to stunting and dental health through health education activities that involve the role of parents in choosing food intake and maintaining the cleanliness of children's teeth and mouths.

Moniezia expansa is a prevalent species of tapeworm that poses potential health risks to sheep and other ruminant animals. Its distribution is global, including regions such as Babylon and Karbala. The diagnosis of Moniezia expansa in sheep processed through butcheries and abattoirs in these areas typically follows a structured approach. A crucial aspect of the diagnostic process involves postmortem examination, where butchers and inspectors meticulously inspect the sheep's intestines. The small intestines, particularly the jejunum and ileum, often serve as habitats for Moniezia expansa tapeworms. During visual inspection, professionals identify the presence of adult tapeworms or their segments. Subsequently, the identified tapeworm segments undergo specific identification procedures. Typical Moniezia expansa segments exhibit a flat and rectangular shape, often appearing broader than their length and extending several centimeters. Between March 2020 and February 2021, 266 random samples of small intestines were collected from sheep slaughtered in Babylon and Karbala butcheries. The study results indicate that the parasite had a widespread presence in both regions, with infection rates of 30.45% (37.78%, 28.47%) for Babylon and Karbala, respectively. The highest infection rate, reaching 48.71%, was observed during the summer season, particularly in July.

The study examined the role of high-performance work systems in reducing turnover intention within the tourism sector of Kuala Lumpur and the mediation effect of organisational justice and job embeddedness. A quantitative design was applied to the data collected from 112 rank-and-file employees of Kuala Lumpur restaurants. The findings revealed that employee relations, performance management, and appraisal reduced employee turnover intention. The findings contributed to the literature by highlighting the mediation effects of job embeddedness and organisational justice. Moreover, the current study emphasised the importance of promoting employee workplace practices that foster high-performance work systems to retain talented employees. The findings also provide implications for the tourism sector and organisations and reveal the significance of policies and practices to ensure high-performance work systems, organisational justice, and job embeddedness in increasing employee retention and reducing turnover intention.
