Abstract:
This paper aims to draw the religious life in Sarnath (and Varanasi) as accounted by the Chinese travellers—Fa-Hien and Hiuen-tsang. The accounts not only talk about the stupas, pillars, statues built by King Ashoka; vihars and monks (bhikshus) living in those vihars but also contain the first preachings of Lord Buddha, establishment of Sangha and the story of Mrigajataka that remain significant. With the increased popularity of Buddha dharma in China, the Chinese were attracted towards travelling to India. They came to India mainly with the intentions to visit the places related to the fond memories of Lord Buddha, to study the Buddha religion and philosophy and carry the copies of the Buddhist compositions. Fa-Hien and Hiuen-tsang occupy significant places among these Chinese travellers. These accounts can be associated with ancient history as well as with historical geography, religion and philosophy. While Fa-hien in his journey details had described about the Buddha Empire, Hiuen-tsang highlighted the civilisation of India and its cultural landscape, albeit it has been often accepted by the historians that these accounts of their journeys should be considered as significant only when they are backed by historical evidences. They opine that these travellers were mainly influenced by the Buddha dharma and therefore, their accounts are liable to containing exaggerated journey details. It is true that the journey details contain few imaginary instances; nevertheless, these accounts have been validated by the remnants, stupas and vihars at the sites.

Abstract:
This paper examines the new forms and genres of storytelling in India with an emphasis on the visual aspect of the literary narration. It begins with a remark on the literary and performing tradition of India, where stories were told with an accompaniment of visuals: single or sequential images, scroll paintings, acting etc. With time, storytellers and poets started including modern-day, contemporary themes and problems into their narratives, which not only brought changes in the repertoire of stories, but also, quite naturally, caused development in terms of genres and ways of expression. The present study is based on graphic novels by Sarnath Banerjee and Vishwajyoti Ghosh, with reference to contemporary Hindi literature and some examples from visual art. The author seeks to answer the following questions: 1) what is the “new language” of a literary work in relation to the visual, 2) how – and by which means – does the literature reflect the reality of the new generations, 3) how is a story narrated through images. In conclusion, some observations are made on mutual influences between literature and audio-visual arts.

Abstract:
‘Water wars’ are back. Conflicts in Syrian, Yemen and Israel/Palestine are regularly framed as motivated by water and presented as harbingers of a world to come. The return of ‘water wars’ rhetoric, long after its 1990s heyday, has been paralleled by an increasing interest among novelists in water as a cause of conflict. This literature has been under-explored in existing work in the Blue Humanities, while scholarship on cli-fi has focused on scenarios of too much water, rather than not enough. In this article I catalogue key features of what I call the ‘water wars novel’, surveying works by Paolo Bacigalupi, Sarnath Banerjee, Varda Burstyn, Assaf Gavron, Emmi Itäranta, Karen Jayes and Cameron Stracher, writing from the United States, India, Canada, Israel, Finland and South Africa. I identify the water wars novel as a distinctive and increasingly prominent mode of ‘cli-fi’ that reveals and obscures important dimensions of water crises of the past, present and future.

Abstract:
This essay examines how the significance of ancient South Asian monuments is transformed when reframed by the practices of cultural tourism, which are grounded in the values of a modern, globalizing, economic cosmology. Ethnographic evidence collected on a visit to the archaeological park and museum at Sarnath, site of the Buddha's first discourse and home to some of the most celebrated masterpieces of ancient Indian sculpture, are here analyzed to support and illustrate a broader, social-constructivist argument about the representation of reality in Indian visual culture. I will argue that the version of 'reality' presupposed by modern economic practices, such as tourism, works to objectify ancient South Asian forms and meanings, previously precipitated out of older living practices, into reified, collectable entities. Such objects and their objectified meanings further contribute toward naturalizing and universalizing economically grounded projects of self-construction among the practitioners of an economic worldview, wherein the self is shaped by routines of production and consumption: I am what I do for a living and I am the goods—including here, the touristic experiences—that I collect. It is this economic cosmology that moves to the foreground when ancient Indian 'art' is re-presented and consumed in the form of tourism products. Meanwhile the cosmology of dharma is pushed into the background. I hope to persuade the reader that the 'cost' of doing this is too high to justify the narrow economic benefits.

Abstract:
Background: Perinatal asphyxia is a condition resulting from deprivation of oxygen to a neonate that lasts long enough to cause damage to the brain. Perinatal asphyxia is one of the major causes of early neonatal mortality in India. The goal was to evaluate outcomes of asphyxiated babies. Methods: One hundred consecutive neonates with birth asphyxia (Apgar 0-3 at 5-minute of age) were studied. Data from medical records of all babies with perinatal asphyxia admitted were retrieved and documented for the study.Results: Majority of the neonates are inborn (57%). Male to female ratio was 1.5:1. Spontaneous vaginal delivery constitute 32% and lower segment caesarean section (LSCS) 36%. Mortality was highest in hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) stage 3 with 11%. Mean duration of hospitalization is directly related to Sarnat and Sarnat staging of HIE. 22% babies were having neurological sequelae and discharged on anti-convulsant. 21% mortality, majority were outborn.Conclusions: Despite advances in the management of neonates, perinatal asphyxia is still the leading cause of morbidity and mortality. Perinatal asphyxia is still prevalent despite medical advances. Babies with HIE stage III had poor outcome. Appropriate strategies required to minimize the neuro-developmental sequelae.

Abstract:
Whilst archaeological discoveries initiated by the Europeans have long encouraged a pride in India's past among its educated elite, there is even less evidence of nationalism influencing the practice of Indian Archaeology. TRIGGER 1995: 271In 1995 Bruce Trigger dismissed the role of nationalism within the archaeology of south Asia (1995: 271), apparently ignoring even the archaeological nature of the crest of the new Indian republic — the Sarnath lion; and his comments have acted as a catalyst for this special number of papers, many of which explore the very real relationship between the south Asian nation-state and archaeology. We have expanded Trigger's tripartite division of nationalist, colonialist or imperialist archaeology (1984), to reflect the aspirations of additional units such as regions, religious groups and individual communities over the last 200 years. In so doing we have used the concept of identity, as offered by Northrup (1989: 63), to encompass these disparate groups:Identity is the tendency for human beings, individually and in groups, to establish, maintain and protect a sense of self-meaning, predictability and purpose. It encompasses a sense of self-definition at multiple levels.

Abstract:
Background: The World Health Organization describes birth asphyxia as failure to initiate and sustain default breathing at birth. The aim of the study was to study the clinical profile and outcome at 3 months of age of full term babies born with severe birth asphyxia and to analyze risk factors associated with adverse outcome.Methods: This was a prospective observational study carried out over period of 12 months in year 2015-16. All full term babies born with severe birth asphyxia (n = 45) during four months period were enrolled and were followed up for 3 months. Severe birth asphyxia was defined as APGAR score 3 or less at 1 minute. Baseline characteristics, clinical profile and outcome were noted. HIE was graded as per Sarnat and Sarnat staging. Neurological Assessment at 7th day and on discharge was done and were assessed by Amiel Tison Scale at 3 months. Multivariate analysis by linear regression was done to find risk factors associated with adverse outcome. Results: Of total 45 babies with SBA, 35 developed HIE, of which 13 (28.8%) were in HIE grade II and 13 (28.8%) were in HIE III. Mortality found was 20% while 28.5% of survivors had abnormal neurological outcome at 3 months. Multivariate analysis of risk factors shows that abnormal neurological finding on 7th day of life, APGAR ≤ 6 at 10 minute and HIE grade II or more where associated with abnormal outcome(p = 0.01). The risk factors associated with mortality were multiorgan dysfunction, difficult to control seizures, APGAR ≤4 at 10 minute (p = 007).Conclusions: Full term neonates with severe birth asphyxia has significant mortality and significant number of survivors has abnormal neurological outcome at 3 months of age. Presence of certain clinical indicators is associated with increased risk of adverse outcome.

Abstract:
<p>La sarna común de la papa, causada por bacterias del género Streptomycetes, es una enfermedad de difícil manejo agronómico que se encuentra en todas las zonas de producción de papa en el mundo, por lo que la obtención de cultivares resistentes a la enfermedad es uno de los componentes del manejo integrado de la enfermedad. Hasta ahora se han obtenido algunos materiales resistentes en Estados unidos y Europa; no obstante los estudios genéticos realizados hasta ahora para determinar caracteres como la heredabilidad han dado pocos resultados que puedan ser utilizados para el mejoramiento genético. El presente estudio se realizó con la finalidad de estimar los parámetros genéticos de la resistencia a sarna común utilizando una po­blación de 38 familias de medios hermanos de <em>Solanum phureja </em>en campo, en cuatro localidades diferentes del departamento de Antioquia (Colombia). Los resultados muestran que tres localidades fueron aptas para el análisis de los resultados por presentar diferentes niveles de severidad en los genotipos la otra localidad presentó un bajo nivel de severidad de la enfermedad lo que no permitió realizar una correcta selección. La heredabilidad en sentido estrecho osciló entre 0,22 y 0,45 para las localidades discriminantes. Se encontró una alta variación en la respuesta del genotipo al ambiente en la expresión de la resistencia genética. La ga­nancia genética esperada puede ser hasta del 20% de disminución en severidad de la enfermedad por ciclo de selección, lo cual indica que el carácter de resistencia a sarna común puede ser manejado en programas convencionales de mejoramiento genético mediante esquemas de selección recurrente.</p>

Abstract:
Background: Neonatal encephalopathy, following severe birth asphyxia or perinatal hypoxia is referred to as hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE). Cerebral ischemia occurs as a consequence of cerebral oedema and reduced cerebral perfusion due to myocardial dysfunction as a result of hypoxic cardiomyopathy. Sarnat stage I -100% recovery, HIE stage II - 80% normal and 20% mortality and HIE stage III - 50% mortality and 50% morbidity. Relatively few studies have been made on outcome in HIE affected preterm infants. The aims and objectives of this study was to find out the neurodevelopmental outcome in preterm infants with HIE.Methods: This study is an observational clinical study, undertaken in Kempegowda Institute of Medical sciences and research centre, Bangalore, India. Study was performed between November 2016 to September 2018. 31 preterm infants with HIE were included in the study. Regular follow-up was done at 3, 6, 9, 12.15, 18 months by using Trivandrum development screening chart (TDSC) to stage II HIE infants.Results: The incidence of abnormal neurological outcome was 12.9%. Out of 31 preterm babies, stage I were 24, stage II was 4 (100% morbidity) and stage III were 3 (100% mortality).Conclusions: In present study, stage II HIE had 100% morbidity and moderate disability, stage III 100% mortality. Thus at 3-5 months of age during follow-up, when authors identify developmental delay, it is an ideal time to start interventional therapy to improve long term outcome.
