Background : Menstrual knowledge, hygiene, and perception are often neglected worldwide, especially in smaller and less developed societies, exposing adolescents to menstrual health hazards. Against the poor communication of menstrual health and hygiene, the present paper attempts to assess the attitude, knowledge, and perceptions towards menstruation among Poumai adolescents of Manipur, Northeast India. Methods : It is a cross-sectional study with data collected from 491 Poumai adolescents through a cross-sectional study using a self-structured schedule on menstrual knowledge. Results : The mean age of the respondents was 17.11 ± 1.33 years. 73.12% of adolescents did not know about menstruation before attaining menarche. Most of the adolescents learned about menstruation from their mothers (39.39%), followed by sisters (29.55%), friends (28.79%), and aunts (2.27%), respectively. The study exhibits a signi fi cant relationship between age, educational quali fi cation, and advanced knowledge about menstruation before menarche and attitude and perception towards menstruation ( < 0.05). The study highlights poor knowledge and awareness about menstruation before menarche among Poumai adolescents. Conclusion : The present study highlights the importance of health communication in reproductive health to minimize stigmas, misconceptions, taboos, and invalid menstruation restrictions. The study seeks the attention of healthcare management, not only in the regional but the whole world, to educate the public about menstrual health and hygiene.

In India, suicide research has largely concentrated on the prevalence, method, psychological, and demographic risk factors. Suicide processes, paradigms, prevention strategies, and other features of suicide that are common in the West may not be applicable in India. It is vital to study potential underlying processes, various suicide prevention methods, and suicide prevention in general, as well as what more work has to be done in the Indian context. Suicide, on the other hand, is a cross-sectoral public health issue that demands collaboration across all key sectors, and its prevention should engage all stakeholders in India.

Background : The association of endophytic fungi with medicinal plants has been one of the evolving areas of research in the past few decades. The secondary metabolites produced owing to such associations have been recognised for a wide range of biological activities. Objectives : The aim of the present review is to highlight the isolation of lapachol from endophytic microorganisms with an emphasis on its biotransformation to improve its ef fi cacy. Methodology : The researchers followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) criteria. Published scienti fi c articles on endophytes, host e pathogen interaction and lapachol isolation were collected from reputed journals from 1960 to 2022 using electronic databases using the key words as stated. Following that, the authors chose the required papers based on the criteria they devised. The data was extracted using the common research elements found in the publications. Results and discussion : Lapachol is one such secondary metabolite known for potent antitumor properties. Synthesis of lapachol and its isolation from plant sources have been reported but an expensive process. Therefore, bioprospecting of this metabolite from endophytic fungi have been evaluated by a few researchers. It has been identi fi ed that A. niger and Alternaria alternata along with some of the fi lamentous endophytic fungi have been identi fi ed to produce lapachol. Some fi ndings of biotransformation of lapachol to render it more potent have also been reported in the present review. Conclusion : Lapachol is one of the plant secondary metabolites that possess several therapeutic bene fi ts. Owing to its isolation being highly expensive from plant sources, endophytes have been exploited. Furthering to the isolation, the biotrasformation of this bioactive molecule to enhance its ef fi ciency has proven to be useful. In this regard, this review has enlightened some of the biotransformed lapachol and its derivatives with special emphasis on the endophytes that produce them. This review comprehensively highlights the various endophytic sources for lapachol production and its biotransformed derivatives.
