No full textResearch trends and network approach of critical thinking skills in English Language Teaching – A bibliometric analysis implementing R studio
No full textCritical thinking is often regarded as one of the vital skills in the 21st century. In recent years, it has become important to combine this skill with other skills such as language learning, creativity, problem-solving, decision making, and reflective thinking. As language and thoughts are intertwined and influence each other, incorporating thinking skills into English Language Teaching (ELT) can enhance academic and professional success. The prime objective of the current study is to conduct a bibliometric analysis of research on Critical Thinking (CT) in ELT from 2012 to 2022 by focusing on publication and research trends such as influential authors, globally cited documents, pertinent journals, leading countries, and significant affiliations. The current study also sheds light on the co-occurrence of keywords and thematic evolution through bibliometric analysis, examining 238 articles from Scopus and Web of Science databases using R studio (Biblioshiny). This bibliometric analysis highlights Thinking Skills and Creativity as the most pertinent journal with high citation count and China being the most cited country in this field. It also accentuates the interconnection between higher-order thinking skills, self-regulation, critical thinking, and critical reading. The thematic evolution of CT shows a shift from collaborative learning and CT (2012–2019) to language teaching and CT (2020–2022). It emphasizes the importance and the rising prominence of CT skills in language teaching. Moreover, this review will guide scholars and academicians to identify future research directions in the field of CT
Bogar Siddhar’s Method of Eating Medicines
No full textSiddhars are individuals who has attained spiritual powers and they work various fields for the welfare of people. They have created many rare books in various fields like medicine, witchcraft, astrology, yoga, wisdom, alchemy etc. They also emphasized the principle of spiritual unity. Bogar is a well know siddhar. '7000' is one of his famous books, which consists of many ideas. Nowadays, the modern doctors do not mention any diet that should be followed when taking medicine to get rid of illness. The traditional Siddha doctors suggest diet that should be followed while taking medicines. Tamil siddhar’s have given some methods that should be followed while taking medicines. Thus, this article is about those methods that are mentioned in the book ‘7000’ by Bogar
Bokar Siddha's Yogic Thoughts
No full textStatus of Shiva can be attained by proper study of the timeless and wonderful art, which is greatly admired, worshiped and secretly maintained by the Siddhas. Methods of burial of the human body is called samaadhi. In Siddha education, samaadhi is equal to God, and samaadhi is generally of three types. After human death, the body is buried directly in the ground or buried in coffins. Achieving samadhi in self-created grave by suppressing the life to attain salvation without rebirth is called Jeevasamathi. Being equal to the Lord with body and soul, by attaining bliss, attaining home, and attaining salvation. At this stage the siddhars who communicate with the worldly people and guide them are in a state of samadhi. In this way, the purpose of this article is to investigate the yogic Thoughts of Bokar Siddha
The Female-Centric Community as shown in the Songs of Muthin Mullai (a Part that Deals with the Valour of Women in Purathinai)
No full textThe Purathinai literary tradition is not merely a literary tradition. It is also a social tradition of that period. On this basis, one of the disciplines of the Purathinai literary tradition, the Mullai of Muthin Mullai, has within itself a social life. Muthinmullai songs, which describe the valour of women, also record that it is the duty of women to save the family and society for the family. Through such records, the Muthin mullai songs show pieces of evidence to understand the primacy and supremacy of women's lives in society. The songs are used to explain how women are viewed and to confirm the social identities of women, referred to as a matrilineal society. This article also highlights the need to find more data on why the Tamil community was such a predominantly female community
The Religious Philosophy of Bhogar Siddhar
No full textDevotees are religious people. They are attached to shastras and rituals. They believe in deities, holy sites, sacred water, etc. They go to every temple, sing, and get excited. Azhwars, Nayanmars, etc., can be subsumed into the categories of devotees. The Siddhas are those who have attained the highest spiritual power. Attainment of spiritual power means being happy. Most human beings are associated with religion in one way or another. Religion is the way to engage with God. Not all people think of God in the same way. That is why different religions arose. Therefore, the divine thinkers can be divided into two types: devotees and Siddhas. This article examines the philosophy of God as propounded by the Siddhas
E-Mail Security Using Spam Mail Detection and Filtering System
No full textElectronic mail, also known as email or e-mail, is a method of exchanging digital messages from an author to one or more recipients. Email is the most efficient way to communicate or transfer our data from one to another. While transferring or communicating through email there is the possibility of misbehave. In the existing system Spam method is used to avoid the unwanted Email receiving. Email spam, also known as unsolicited bulk Email (UBE), junk mail, or unsolicited commercial email (UCE), is the practice of sending unwanted email messages, frequently with commercial content, in large quantities to an indiscriminate set of recipients. But in Spam method there is no way to prevent the unwanted messages or Email receiving. To solve these unwanted messages or Email receiving we propose the concept Email misbehave blocking system. In the proposed method we permanently prevent the incoming unwanted messages or Email through blocking system

No full textCEPHALOSPORINS AS A POTENTIAL RISK FACTOR FOR UROLITHIASIS: A CASE-CONTROL STUDY
No full textThe study aimed to explore the impact of Oxalobacter formigenes colonization and cephalosporin antibiotic treatment on urinary oxalate, calcium, and citrate levels, with a focus on evaluating the bacterium’s role in mitigating the risk of calcium oxalate kidney stone formation. An observational, case-control study was conducted involving 350 control subjects and 280 kidney stone patients. Participants were stratified based on recent cephalosporin use and O. Formigenes colonization. Results demonstrated that O. Formigenes colonized individuals consistently exhibited lower urinary oxalate and calcium levels and higher citrate levels compared to non-colonized counterparts. Cephalosporin treatment exacerbated urinary biochemical imbalances, further increasing oxalate and calcium excretion while reducing citrate levels, particularly in non-colonized individuals. This highlights the protective role of O. Formigenes in maintaining urinary biochemical homeostasis and reducing kidney stone risk. The findings underscore the need for strategies to preserve gut microbiota, especially O. Formigenes, during antibiotic therapy to mitigate metabolic consequences and prevent urolithiasis
A validated LC-MS method for the estimation of genotoxic nitroso amines impurities in empagliflozin
No full textBackground: Nitrosamine impurities are known to be mutagenic and carcinogenic, and even minor exposure to these impurities can result in genotoxicity. Objective: The objective of this study was to develop and validate simple, robust and accurate Liquid Chromatography coupled with Mass spectroscopy (LC-MS) method for estimation of nitroso amine impurities [N-nitroso dimethyl amine (NDMA), N-nitroso diethylamine (NDEA), N-nitroso ethyl isopropylamine (NEIA), N- Nitroso diisopropylamine (NDIPA)] in empagliflozin. Method & Results: Aqueous ammonia buffer (0.10%) in a mixture of methanol (5:95 v/v), flow rate, and injection volume were 0.4mL/min, 20µL, respectively. Linearity was observed in the concentration range of 0.05-0.5 ppm (r2 =1). The retention time of NDMA, NDEA, NEIA and NDIPA were 6.412, 7.172, 7.486 and 7.719, respectively. The method was validated according to ICH guidelines with good reproducibility, and the limits of detection were 0.03 ppm for NDMA, NEIA and NDIPA and 0.02 ppm for NDEA, respectively. The limit of quantitation for NDMA, NEIA and NDIPA was 0.09 ppm and 0.06 ppm for NDEA, respectively. Conclusion: The proposed method is helpful for the best analysis of nitrosamine impurities in dosage forms of empagliflozin within a shorter duration of time
