Pariwisata Berbasis Masyarakat Sebagai Pelestari Tradisi di Desa Samiran
No full textThe purpose of this paper is to describe the exist traditions in Samiran Village and to study how far the people participation of Samiran Village as tradition preservers. A qualitative approach is used in this paper and described descriptively. Conducting literature studies, in-depth interviews, and observations is used in this paper. Assisted by participatory theory to analyze ho far the community participation as tradition preservers. The results show that the people of Samiran Village still carry out the sadranan and baritan traditions. The purpose of this tradition is to honor the ancestors, give thanks for the harvest, ask for blessings and a sense of mutual help. Community participation in tradition activities in Samiran Village consists of 2 types, namely active and passive participation. Direct participation carried on the tradition Sadranan, whereas indirect participation carried on the tradition baritan. With the concept of a community-based tourism, traditional activities can become a cultural tourist attraction. This paper proposes the role of the community as a preserver of tradition so that it is maintained and preserved. This paper also recommends a study on the role of the community as a preserver of other traditions that have not been mentioned by the author

No full textProposed identification of physiological classification and theoretical mechanisms of yogāsanas
No full textYoga in the theoretical and practical form is now accepted all over the world, by the researchers as well as by the general population. Yogāsana or Yogic postures are one of the main foundations of practical yoga. Mechanisms of Mediation and Prānāyāma has already been established. In this article, the author is for the first time proposing physiological classification of Yogāsana i.e. (a) Stretch (b) Contraction (c). Neuromuscular Coordination (d) Sense Reduction (e) Spine Brain Activation. In support of this physiological classification author has proposed five hypothetical theories i.e. (i) Stretch Relaxation Awareness (ii) Contraction Relaxation Awareness (iii) Ballastic Contraction Relaxation Awareness (iv) Sensory Motor Function Awareness and (v) Vital Energy Flow Awareness to understand the underlying mechanisms of Yogāsana practice and to explain its benefits
Proposed physiological mechanisms of pranayama: A discussion
No full textBackground: Pranayama, or yogic breathing technique, is now well-known worldwide by ordinary people, doctors, and scientific communities for its immediate and long-term physiological effect. However, no comprehensive physiological mechanisms explained pranayama. The present study proposed these physiological mechanisms to interpret the underlying science behind pranayama. Method: The author searches PubMed/Medline internet sources for authentic scientific data and articles to acquire evidence following specific keywords. The author reviewed a total of seventy-three papers, following PRISMA guidelines. 17 full articles, including seven systematic reviews, five clinical trials, two observational studies, and three randomized control trials, have been selected to discuss proposed physiological mechanisms. Discussion: This study proposes physiological mechanisms of pranayama. It is commenced from Step 1. Activation of mechanoreceptors and chemoreceptors in the respiratory system; then Step 2. Activation of mechanoreceptors and chemoreceptors in the circulatory system, followed by Step 3. Activation of brain respiro-circulatory control centre; Step 4. Activation of the cerebellum; Step 5. Activation of the limbic system and finally end with; Step 6. Activation of the cerebral cortex. The physiological adjustment and adaptation mechanisms due to pranayama of all these six proposed areas have been discussed. Authentic scientific evidence has also been presented to support these proposed physiological mechanisms of pranayama. The author stated the study's limitations and suggested future specific scientific experiments in this area of proposed physiological mechanisms of pranayama. Conclusion: These prospective proposed physiological mechanisms of pranayama in the future may provide the best scientific background for therapeutic rehabilitation and for the healthy population to maintain their general wellness
A reference architecture for context-aware intelligent traffic management platforms
No full textSmart cities have been heralded for improving traffic management by utilizing data for making better traffic management decisions. Multi-sided platforms collect data from sensors and citizen-generated data on one side and can provide input for decision-making using data analytics by governments and the public on the other side. However, there is no guidance for creating developing Intelligent Traffic Management Systems (ITMS) platforms. The involvement of various actors having different interest and heterogeneous datasets hampers development. In this article, the authors design a reference architecture (RA) to support intelligent traffic management systems for providing better a commute, and safety and security during travel based on real-time information. The main three layers of this RA are datasets, processes, and actors. The RA for ITMS provides guidance for designing and overcoming the challenges with: 1) heterogeneous datasets; 2) data gathering; 3) data processing; 4) data management; and 5) supporting various types of data users. The illustration and evaluation of the architecture shows possible solutions of the aforementioned challenges. The RA helps to integrate the activities performed by the various actors. In this way it can be used to reduce traffic queues, increase the efficient use of resources, smooth and safe commute of the citizens.Information and Communication Technolog
The position of the <i>Paribhāṣās</i> in the textual order of the <i>Āpastamba Śrautasūtra</i>
No full textControversy continues over the position of the paribhāṣās in the textual order of the Āpastamba Śrautasūtra. The paribhāṣās occupy the first four kaṇḍikās of the 24th Praśna in the printed text edited by R. Garbe. They are regarded by Garbe as a later addition and by Narasimhachar as the initial portion of the Śrautasūtra. This paper examines the validity of their views. From a reassessment of their data combined with further grounds the present author concludes that the position in which the paribhāṣās now appear in the printed text is the original one.</jats:p

New perspective with Gliclazide MR on screening and management of MODY patients in India
No full textMaturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) is a genetically heterogeneous group of monogenic endocrine disorders characterized by autosomal dominant inheritance and pancreatic β-cell dysfunction. Currently, 14 MODY subtypes have been identified, with differences in incidence, clinical features, diabetes severity and related complications, and treatment response. This type of diabetes is mostly misdiagnosed as either type 1 or type 2 diabetes mellitus because it is difficult to differentiate between these forms of diabetes due to clinical similarities, the high cost of genetic testing, and lack of awareness. The correct diagnosis for individuals with MODY is of utmost importance, as the applied treatment depends on the gene mutation or is subtype-specific. Sulphonylureas, specifically Gliclazide, has emerged as the drug of choice for MODY patients. This review will discuss the importance of screening in MODY patients and its management and the status of MODY patients in India
