Prevalence of Oral Diseases in the Tribal Population of Badagas in Nilgiris District – A Cross Sectional Study

Oral health is a crucial aspect of overall well-being, encompassing functional, structural, aesthetic, physiological, and psychological dimensions. In India, tribal communities, including the Badagas of the Nilgiris, have historically faced socio-economic, political, and educational marginalization. Despite India's independence in 1947, these communities remained largely unrecognized and disconnected from mainstream development. The Badagas, an indigenous group residing in approximately 400 villages, have demonstrated remarkable progress through intensive cash-crop farming, leading to improved living standards. However, oral health challenges persist due to neglecting social and material determinants and lacking integration with general health initiatives. As a result, many individuals suffer from severe dental issues, impacting their quality of life. Addressing these disparities requires a comprehensive approach to oral health promotion, ensuring accessibility and awareness among tribal populations.

Ensuring Consumer Protection in Online Transactions: The Role of FCCPC in Nigeria

With the rapid growth of e-commerce in Nigeria, ensuring consumer protection in online transactions has become increasingly crucial. The Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (FCCPC) plays a pivotal role in safeguarding consumer rights within the digital marketplace. This paper explores the role of the FCCPC in regulating online transactions, emphasizing its enforcement of consumer protection laws, dispute resolution mechanisms, and efforts to combat fraud and deceptive practices. The FCCPC's involvement extends to monitoring e-commerce platforms for compliance with the Consumer Protection Act, promoting consumer awareness, and collaborating with other regulatory bodies to ensure a fair and transparent online environment. Despite technological advancements and enforcement difficulties, the FCCPC continues adapting its strategies to address emerging issues, providing consumers with greater security and confidence in the online marketplace. This paper underscores the importance of a robust regulatory framework in fostering consumer trust and supporting the growth of e-commerce in Nigeria.

Leveraging Data Analytics in Investment Banking: Transforming Insights into Strategic Decisions

Data analytics has become extremely important for modern-day businesses, especially banks. Most of the information in banks is stored in computers as Big data. Analysing this data allows the banks to function efficiently and smoothly. There are various data analytics categories in banking, such as descriptive, diagnostic, prescriptive and predictive analytics. Data analytics has various advantages and challenges. So, an organisation may face various challenges like privacy regulations not allowing the organisation to analyse data freely, technical & architectural challenges, etc. For data analytics to be helpful for the company, it needs to be applied effectively; this can be done by asking practical questions to the software while analysing data or by making the data analysis platform easier for less skilled employees. Various tests, such as the T-test and regression model, play a key role in analysing data. Various companies have capitalised on data analysis by developing software and platforms focusing solely on data analysis. These companies use these platforms to other companies as a service they charge for. The biggest data analysis and investment research company is Bloomberg.

Advancing Girls’ Education In Underprivileged Societies

Girls' education in underprivileged societies remains a critical issue that significantly impacts socioeconomic development, gender equality, and poverty alleviation. This paper explores the challenges and opportunities associated with advancing girls' education, emphasizing its role in empowerment, breaking the cycle of poverty, improving health outcomes, reducing child marriage, lowering fertility rates, promoting gender equality, fostering economic growth, enhancing social development, reducing gender-based violence, and creating global impact. Various socio-cultural, economic, and political barriers prevent girls from accessing quality education, perpetuating inequality and hindering national progress. By analyzing the existing challenges and proposing strategic interventions, this study highlights the need for holistic policy measures, financial investments, and community engagement to bridge the gender education gap. The findings suggest that empowering girls through education can lead to transformative changes, benefiting individuals and society at large (UNESCO, 2021; UNICEF, 2020).

Nano-Enhanced Hydrophobic Coating with ZnO Nanoparticles for Preserving Cultural Heritage Building

Preserving outdoor heritage assets is an ongoing challenge in heritage conservation. The purpose of applying preservative coatings is to improve the hydrophobicity of exposed surfaces of building materials and protect against pollutants, microbiological growths, and especially the effects of rainwater. A good protective coating significantly lowers water absorption, maintains high water-vapor permeability, penetrates deeply, is UV light resistant, offers sufficient breathability, and is environmentally friendly. Polysiloxanes and their precursors have been widely used to protect stone surfaces. To avoid degradation or other modifications to the treated surfaces, the treatment's safety and effectiveness must be evaluated before being directly applied to historical materials. In the past, several nanoparticles were developed and tested to improve the functionality of these coatings. The initial protective layer is made of a solvent-based substance called silane-siloxane, which has poor adherence. As a result, water can partially wash off dirt, pollutants, and microbial colonies. The hydrophobicity of protective coating materials made of ZnO nanoparticles is substantially superior. Photocatalytic coatings can oxidize organic materials on surfaces. Pollutant particles and any other dry deposition were quickly and thoroughly removed by rainwater from protective coatings made of nanoparticles.
