    Evaluation of Quality of Life in Patients on Different Treatment Modalities for Primary Glaucoma in a Tertiary Care Teaching Hospital- A Prospective Observational Study
    (Dr.Viral R.Dave, 2025-03) Santoki, H; Prajapati, NB; Raval, R; Shah, K; Tiwari, H; Sood, SV.
    Introduction: Glaucoma, causes irreversible vision loss, involves optic nerve damage due to increased aqueous outflow resistance in primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) or iris blockage in primary-angle closure glaucoma (PACG). Objective: This study evaluates different treatment patterns and their effectiveness in primary glaucoma using the NEI VFQ-25. Method: A 2-month prospective observational study included patients with primary glaucoma, excluding those with secondary glaucoma or other ocular conditions. The sample size was determined based on study duration. Treatment groups received medical, laser, or surgical interventions, alone or combined. NEI VFQ-25 was administered at baseline and one month. Results: Among 100 patients, mean age 56.7 years, equally divided between POAG and PACG, QoL improved significantly across all treatment groups, greatest in medical treatment alone, multimodal treatment, least. One-way ANOVA showed difference in treatment approach on outcomes. Conclusion: Using NEI-VFQ-25, study assessed QoL in glaucoma patients across six treatment groups, finding highest QoL with medical therapy alone and lowest with combined treatments.

    Influence of Organic Manures and Integrated Nutrient Management on Floral Characteristics and Corm Yield in Gladiolus cv. Nova Lux
    (Ms. M. B. Mondal, 2024-09) Dixit, S; Pandey, AK; Tiwari, H; Trivedi, H; Bhadauria, AS.
    A field experiment was conducted at the Department of Horticulture, Janta College Bakewar, Etawah, India, during 2021-22. The experiment was conducted in a randomized block design with 10 treatments with replications. Different combinations of Vermi-compost, F.Y.M., and NPK were used as treatments. The results revealed that, amongst all the treatments, the application of N.P.K. 120:80:80 kg + V.C. 10 t/ha in treatment (T8) produced significant results. Average height of plant in (90 DAS)73.16cm, Average number of leaves per plant (60 DAS) 5.78, Average width of longest leaf in 5.77cm (final stage), Average length of florets in 9.88 cm (full blooming stage), Average Number of cormels 32.04 per plant, Average weight of corms 150.51 (g). It can be concluded that application of N.P.K. and vermi composed could be used as organic fertilizer for production of Gladiolus.

    Micronutrients in the Plant-Soil-Environment Continuum: A Comprehensive Review
    (Ms. M. B. Mondal, 2024-06) Tiwari, H; Bhatt, R; Singh, PK; Das, D; Vihan, S; Tomar, T; Singh, AK; Kumar, S
    Though mostly ignored, micronutrients are most important. Reducing the negative effects of micronutrient shortages requires the use of effective techniques like vitamin supplements and dietary diversification. It is known that when agricultural yields are reduced because of inadequate soil micronutrient concentration, malnutrition may result. Deficits in soil micronutrients can result from a number of variables, such as the use of intensive cropping practices, micronutrient leaching, soil characteristics, and decreased use of farmyard waste. The availability of micronutrients in the soil is determined by a number of factors, including soil pH, and status of the soil organic matters. Numerous factors, including the structure of root hairs, the release of organic acids, sugar, and several root enzymes, as well as interactions between microorganisms and plants, affect how well plants absorb and use micronutrients. Numerous studies have been carried out to investigate the soil's micronutrient absorption and bioavailability. In order to improve crop utilisation of soil nutrients, the discussion also included an analysis of the relationships between plant functions and soil nutrients.
