The Bottom Line of Personalization: Unravelling the Power of Algorithms and Segmentation Through a Systematic Review
(Sage Publications India Pvt. Ltd, 2025) Rachit Shrivastava; Sujit Kumar Dubey
Personalized algorithm is a set of complex mathematical models that use various techniques such as machine learning and data mining. Individuals’ personal information is collected and processed in various ways to create personalized experiences. This article aims to have a thorough outlook of personalization in a varied retail touchpoint. The study initiated the work by conducting comprehensive systematic literature review of personalization by utilizing the techniques of science mapping, performance analysis and formulating the PRISMA model framework. A systematic review was done using two significant databases, Scopus and Web of Science, based on which significant themes were identified. At the end, study judiciously concludes by offering the future research direction to incorporate the technological advancements in the form of big data analysis, Internet of Things, artificial intelligence and humanoid shopping assistant to lay out the adaptation and feasibility of personalization in the omnichannel retailing. © 2025 MDI.
Acute changes in left ventricle end-diastolic pressure in patients undergoing nonprimary percutaneous coronary intervention
(Wolters Kluwer Medknow Publications, 2025) Arjun Tandon; Salini Mukhopadhyay; Soumik Ghosh; A. Lavakumar; Kumar Amit; Vikas Agrawal
Background: Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is a critical procedure for managing coronary artery disease (CAD), with nonprimary PCI being increasingly used in elective revascularization. Left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP) is an essential marker of ventricular function, often compromised in CAD patients. While its acute changes have been widely studied in primary PCI, research on nonprimary PCI remains limited. This study investigates the acute changes in LVEDP during nonprimary PCI. Materials and Methods: The study was conducted on 100 patients undergoing nonprimary PCI at a tertiary hospital. Baseline LVEDP measurements were taken before the procedure, and post-PCI LVEDP changes were recorded. Patients were categorized based on acute coronary syndrome (ACS) or chronic coronary syndrome (CCS), as well as subcategorized on the type of ACS. Statistical analysis included Mann-Whitney and Kruskal-Wallis tests, with P < 0.05 considered statistically significant. Results: The mean LVEDP decreased by 2.49 mmHg in ACS patients but increased by 0.96 mmHg in CCS patients. ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients showed the most significant reduction in LVEDP post-PCI, while non-STEMI (NSTEMI) and unstable angina exhibited smaller decreases. A significant negative correlation was found between LVEDP change and left ventricular ejection fraction. No significant correlation was found between LVEDP change and type and quantity of contrast agent used, number of stents used, serum creatinine level, or coexisting comorbidities such as hypertension and diabetes mellitus. Conclusion: The study highlights that LVEDP decreases more significantly in acute ischemic conditions, such as STEMI, compared to chronic conditions, suggesting that acute myocardial ischemic damage is more reversible with PCI than chronic ischemic damage. The findings indicate that LVEDP is a useful parameter in assessing the success of PCI, particularly in ACS patients, and may help predict procedural outcomes. © 2025 Heart India.
An Assessment of Smartphone Use on Brainstem Auditory Evoked Potentials in Healthy Young Adults in North India Short Title: Assessing BAEP Changes in Young Smartphone Users
(SAGE Publications Inc., 2025) Ayushi Seth; Samir Kumar Singh; Anita Gupta; Hanjabam Barun Sharma
Background: A smartphone is an essential part of our daily existence. Smartphones are used by about 5.26 billion people. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine how the duration of smartphone use influenced brainstem auditory evoked potentials (BAEPs). Methods: BAEPs were measured using BERAGRAPH in 41 young healthy persons in an observational cross-sectional study. Results: When daily smartphone calling time is 60 minutes, there is a statistically insignificant difference in smartphone usage length (5 years and >5 years) between the two groups among BAEPs. Conclusion: Despite the P-value being insignificant, there is a positive relationship between smartphone use in years and absolute wave latencies and interpeak latencies of brainstem evoked potentials. © The Author(s) 2025.
Colletotrichum gloeosporioides (endophytic fungi) mediated biosynthesis of TiO2 nanoparticles for high-performance dye-sensitized solar cell
(Elsevier B.V., 2025) Sakshi Singh; Shubham Sharma; Rajnish Bharti; Ravindra Nath Kharwar; Pankaj Kumar Srivastava
This work reports an environmentally friendly protocol for synthesizing TiO2 nanoparticles (NPs) by utilizing endophytic fungi, Colletotrichum gloeosporioides (C. gloeosporioides). The fungi isolated from Thevetia peruviana, worked as a bio-capping agent to regulate the growing TiO2 NPs morphology and agglomeration behavior. The formation of TiO2 NPs was validated by surface plasmon resonance, observed using UV–vis spectroscopy. Using XRD and HRTEM, the structure, size, and shape of the as-synthesized anatase TiO2 NPs were characterized. BET analysis was used to examine the surface area and porosity. EIS revealed the greater charge collection efficiency and enhanced electron lifetime for the TiO2 obtained with N-3 (endophytic fungal extract). The dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC) fabricated with bio-capped TiO2 (N-3) photoanode exhibited greater light-to-current conversion efficiency, 3.50 %; much enhanced compared to 0.98 % obtained with un-capped TiO2 NPs (N-1) based cell. The study demonstrated that the endophytic fungus C.gloeosporioides played a vital role in enhancing the cell performance. © 2024 The Authors
Understanding the Protective Roles of Indian Joint Families for Children During the Early Phase of the COVID-19 Pandemic
(Kerman University of Medical Sciences, 2025) Gyanesh Kumar Tiwari; Rakesh Pandey; Devaki Nandan Sharma; Bablu Ray; Abhigyan Dwivedi; Ajit Kumar Singh; Shanti Suman; Pankaj Singh; Ram Narain Mishra
Background: Although the recent pandemic›s impact on adults has been extensively studied, little research has been done on its impact on children, despite the harmful effects COVID-19 has on them. We aim to understand the protective function of Indian joint families for the perceived life outcomes of children (9-12 years) in the early stages of the recent pandemic. Methods: Using a qualitative research design, 25 full-time mothers from joint families with children (age range = 9-12 years) were chosen through convenience sampling. The data were collected through a semi-structured telephone interview and the transcriptions were analyzed using the thematic analysis method. Results: The qualitative study revealed six themes: perceived distress, the diversity of relationships, harmonious relationships, involvement in household activities, supportive roles of the elderly and collective values and practices. The uncertainty and fear enhanced the perceived distress of family members and concern for the children. The abundant supportive relational resources, involvement in household activities, warmth, optimism and cooperation of the elderly, as well as interdependence and religious practices, were the resources described to protect the children from the negative effects of the pandemic. Conclusion: Indian joint families hold collectivist values that may have enabled greater support, cooperation, caring, interdependence, discipline, cultural knowledge, and conflict resolution mechanisms. Integrity, emotional stability, and caring from the elderly may have significant protective powers. Research, practice and policy implications are discussed. © 2025 The Author(s); Published by Kerman University of Medical Sciences.
