Assessing the effects of social isolation on elderly individuals
Loneliness and social isolation, prevalent among older adults, have profound and often interconnected effects on physical and mental health, leading to increased mortality, depression, and cognitive decline. This paper reviews the literature on social isolation and loneliness in seniors. Key factors contributing to social isolation include the death of a spouse, physical relocation, retirement, changes in family structures, changes in mobility, chronic health problems, household income, race, ethnicity, gender, and sexual orientation. These factors have varying impacts on the social well-being of older adults. Research suggests that subjective social isolation has a stronger link to mental health, while objective social isolation is more strongly related to physical health. Both social isolation and loneliness are associated with higher rates of depression and psychological distress among seniors. Understanding social isolation and loneliness in seniors is crucial for developing targeted interventions and support systems to enhance the well-being of this growing demographic.

Prospective Management of Isqate Ehtemali ( Threatened Abortion) – A Systematic Review
In the Unani System of Medicine Threatened abortion is called Isqat Ehtemali and Ajhaze manzar is the Arabic vernacular of Threatened abortion. It is defined as vaginal bleeding before 20 weeks gestational age in the setting of a positive urine and/or blood pregnancy test with a closed cervical os, without passage of products of conception and without evidence of fetal or embryonic demise. In the Unani system of medicine, Plants have been used extensively in unani system of medicine to maintain the health of the female reproductive system. These have been used mostly in combination or monotherapy. Much of the scientific interest has been directed towards the prevention of abortion. The herbs often used in the prevention of threatened abortion are Ashok chal, Mazu, Mayan, etc. This review paper highlighted on Unani concept of Threatened abortion, its prevention, and management with Unani medicine.

Fingerprint Sensing Gun
In this modern age of science and technology, threats to our lives are exposed to a lot of unplanned factors, one of them which could being shot by a gun, rather intentionally or not! Fingerprint-sensing gun technology can prove to be a great savior for this crisis. It allows fast authentication of one’s fingerprint to unlock the gun and is used only when necessary. Unauthorized users cannot fire the weapon which itself gives an upper hand to the owner of the weapon. By the use of a handful of electronic components, such a gun can be designed. It could prevent children from shooting a family member and untrained individuals.

SMS spam detection in Machine Learning using Natural Language Processing
This paper presents the identification of Spam and ham messages using supervised machine learning algorithms Random forest Classifier, and Logistic Regression algorithms and Analyzes how each filter performs when detecting Ham and Spam. A spam message is a big issue in mobile communication to reduce this effective spam detection techniques should be built Preprocessing is done using the NLTK library with various Stemming Algorithms, Word clouds are used and tokenizing is also performed. The data set is divided into two categories for training and testing the classifiers . the results demonstrated that the performance of Random Forest is better than Logistic Regression. Random forest achieved a better accuracy of 97%.

The Dilemma in Quantum Mechanics
This study possesses the ambition to further investigate and indulge in the world of quantum mechanics and its complexities and possibly ascertain a solution for one major issue attributed to it: the measurement problem, which refers to, in layman's words, the issue of how and why a wave function collapses. According to papers published during the late 1930s, the measurement problem was an issue that could be partially resolved by utilizing the loosely shaped ideas of the Copenhagen Interpretation, which was later coined by Werner Heisenberg during the 1950s, as well as the newborn Pilot-Wave theory, which was further developed and brought to prominence by David Bohm’s work during the 1950s. However, due to the deficiency of new information from modernized research modalities and experiments, these papers lack the new approaches proposed by various physicists, which places a circumscription on the aptitude possessed on this topic. Hence, through this paper, I possess the ambition to utilize the theories of Many Worlds (MWI), QBism, and the further developed Pilot Wave Theory (PWT) to hopefully solve this issue. Contrary to what has customarily been believed, the measurement problem can be partially solved by twisting the functioning of quantum mechanics according to certain theories, which would then act as a base for them and substantiate their claims regarding the measurement issue, such as the MWI theory going against traditional quantum theory and claiming that particles possess definite properties, with many other theories doing something similar, which I will be articulating upon in this paper. To deduce this prolonged abstract, I hope to provide you with a higher magnitude of perception on this infamous issue and probably resolve some of your pertaining doubts on quantum physics.
