मीडिया में दलित, पिछड़े और स्त्री की हिस्सेदारी का सवाल
No full textसितंबर, 2009 में इतिहास, समाजशास्त्र, दर्शन, साहित्य व पत्रकारिता के क्षेत्र में काम करने वाले अनेक प्रमुख विद्वान व युवा अध्येता शिमला में ‘हिंदी की आधुनिकता’ पर पुनर्विचार करने के लिए जुटे थे। समाजशास्त्री अभय कुमार दुबे के संयोजन में यह सात दिवसीय आयोजन भारतीय उच्च अध्ययन संस्थान, शिमला ने किया था।
आयोजन में इस विषय पर व्यापक विचार-विमर्श किया गया कि क्या एक भाषा के रूप में हिंदी आधुनिक मूल्यों का वहन करती है। वहां हिंदी पत्रकारिता में आधुनिक मूल्यों के समावेश की स्थिति पर भी चर्चा हुई ।
आयोजन में पत्रकारों की उच्च सामाजिक पृष्ठभूमि का मीडिया पर पड़ने वाले प्रभाव पर फारवर्ड प्रेस के मौजूदा प्रबंध संपादक प्रमोद रंजन, जो उस समय पटना से प्रकाशित मासिक पत्रिका ‘जन विकल्प’ के संपादक थे, ने अपना बीज-वक्तव्य दिया था, जिस पर तीखी बहस हुई थी। इस विषय पर अभय कुमार दुबे के अलावा अपूर्वानंद, आदित्य निगम, रविकांत, सदन झा, राकेश कुमार सिंह विनीत कुमार और पंकज पुष्कर ने अपनी बातें रखीं।
आयोजन के अन्य सत्रों में ओमप्रकाश वाल्मिकी, सुधीर चंद्र, सुधीश पचौरी, रोहिणी अग्रवाल, अनामिका, वैभव सिंह, सविता सिंह, नवीन चंद्र, राजीव रंजन गिरि, अजय नावारिया, पीटर रोनॅल्ड डिसूजा, चौधरी मुहम्मद नईम आदि के भाषण हुए थे। इस आयोजन में पढे गए पर्चों और उसपर हुई बातचीत ‘हिंदी-आधुनिकता : एक पुनर्विचार’ (संपादक, अभय कुमार दुबे, 2014) शीर्षक से तीन खंडों में प्रकाशित है।
यह उस किताब में प्रकाशित बातचीत का अंश है।हिन्दी पत्रकारिता के पिछले 150 सालों में क्या बदला है? वास्तव में यही वह सवाल है, जिसे हमें ऐसी किसी भी चर्चा के आरम्भ में पूछना चाहिए। क्या पत्रकारिता आजादी के बाद पतित हुई है? क्या पत्रकारिता ज्ञान की सत्ता का ही एक हिस्सा नहीं, जिसके चारों ओर द्विजों ने चारदीवारियां खींच रखी थीं और जिसका दुरुपयोग वे 1947 के बहुत पहले से और उसके बाद भी अपनी सामाजिक, आर्थिक, राजनैतिक सत्ता को बचाए रखने, पुनर्स्थापित करने के लिए करते रहे हैं

Preconception malnutrition among women and girls in south Asia: prevalence, determinants, and association with pregnancy and birth outcomes
No full textSummary: This review highlights the growing double burden of malnutrition among women of reproductive age in South Asia. Using nationally-representative survey data, we highlight that the prevalence of overweight now exceeds that of underweight, while anaemia remains persistently high despite intervention efforts. Underweight and anaemia are more common among unmarried women, whereas overweight is more prevalent among parous women, underscoring the need for life-stage-specific preconception nutrition programs. In our systematic review, micronutrient deficiencies vary widely between and within countries, reflecting regional disparities in nutritional status and inconsistencies in diagnostic methods. Associations of preconception underweight, overweight, anaemia and micronutrient deficiencies with health, nutrition, socio-demographic, and WASH indicators are mixed, emphasising the need for tailored, context-specific interventions. The lack of longitudinal studies limits our understanding of associations between preconception nutritional status and subsequent birth outcomes, underscoring the need for comprehensive, longitudinal studies across South Asia to inform and monitor targeted nutrition programs

No full textCarcinoid tumours of the appendix are uncommon incidentally detected tumours during histopathological examination following appendicectomy for acute appendicitis. Even though considered rare in children, they are the most frequently encountered tumours of the gastrointestinal tract. To our knowledge, carcinoid tumour of appendix in childhood has not yet been reported from Indian Subcontinent. The clinical presentation is similar to acute appendicitis and the signs and symptoms of carcinoid syndrome have not been reported in children. The prognosis of carcinoid tumour of appendix is excellent in children as the tumour is generally small in size and less aggressive with no metastasis. Simple appendicectomy is curative in most of the patients and long term follow up is debatable. We present here a case of carcinoid tumour of the body of appendix, which is an uncommon location in a 6-year-old child
Impact of Teaching Conversation Skills to a Child with Autism at a Therapy Center in Dubai – Case Study.
No full textConversational deficiencies are frequently seen in people with developmental disorders, such as autism spectrum disorder. To teach conversational skills, we employed behavioral skill training. We planned for generalization in the untrained home context with peers and utilized a script-fading package to educate a child with autism to begin social contact across varied activities in the school setting. It was noted that social initiations gradually rose once the script-fading package was introduced. Also, the impacts of the script-fading package extended to peers, parents, caregivers, and an unskilled home environment. By illustrating the transfer of social initiations from the school context with peers to the home environment with siblings, this study builds on earlier studies. This study examines how conversation skills can be taught using scripts and fading the same. The researcher conducted the study with the help of questionnaires, semi-structured interviews, and direct observation. The script fading technique helped to increase conversation and social skills, however, the generalization of these skills was not attained
