Abstract

Objective: To evaluate the effect of 10% Emblica officinalis irrigation, which has anti-inflammatory, antioxidative, and antimicrobial activities, adjunctive to scaling and root planing (SRP) for treatment of chronic periodontitis. Methods: Sixty-six patients were randomly assigned to the negative control group (SRP+saline irrigation; n=22), positive control group (SRP+chlorhexidine irrigation; n=22), and test group (SRP+10% E. officinalis irrigation; n=22). Plaque index (PI), gingival index (GI), probing pocket depth (PPD), clinical attachment level (CAL), and sulcus bleeding index (SBI) were monitored ≤3 months post-therapy. Results: There were significantly greater reductions in the mean PI, PPD, and SBI but a greater mean CAL at 3 months post-therapy in the test group than in the negative control (p<0.05). Compared with the positive control, the test group demonstrated greater reduction in SBI but comparable improvements in PI, GI, CAL, deep pockets (PPD≥5–6 mm, ≥7 mm), and sites with CAL ≥6 mm at 3 months post-therapy (p>0.05) but less reduction in the mean PPD (p<0.05). Conclusions: E. officinalis 10% irrigant adjunctive to SRP improved periodontal healing without side effects and may be an alternative to chlorhexidine for chronic periodontitis treatment.

Abstract

Natural hazards are the sudden catastrophic events which destructs the economy (Alcántara- Ayala, 2002) and the consequences of the same affects human system, natural environment and built environment (Beekharry, 2015). Climate change is the common disastrous event affecting human societies (Stern Review, 2006). As the change in climate directly affects supply chain management of products (Dasaklis and Pappis, 2013) and the market demand also fluctuates as well due to price competitive environment (Jena and Jog, 2016). Consequently, focus of this research is to analyze the impact of natural disasters on variables mainly supply chain management, precautions taken during disasters, Tourism Industry and market demand of goods and services. By employing exploratory research design with various statistical tools, it comes up with remarkable results and concludes that Supply chain management is considered as critical one as it is more vulnerable towards disasters and gets inefficient resulting into disruptive supply chain networks.

Abstract

Tourism is a major global economic sector undergoing tremendous growth in emerging economies and is often touted as salient for development and poverty alleviation in developing countries. Tourism is recognized as a highly climate-sensitive sector, one that is also strongly influenced by environmental and socioeconomic change influenced by climate change. This research examines climate changes and natural disasters' ramifications on tourism businesses in Himachal Pradesh, India. It encompasses factors such as supply chain interruptions, distribution network inefficiencies, and trade blockades affecting market demand, tourist influx, information technology issues, and the necessity for risk management in changing climatic conditions. Additionally, the demographic profiles of 500 respondents are analyzed to understand the specific challenges tourism businesses face. The findings of this research contribute to the understanding of the complex interplay between climate change, natural disasters, and tourism in Himachal Pradesh. They serve as a foundational framework for formulating strategies geared toward augmenting the resilience and sustainability of tourism enterprises when confronted with these challenges, ultimately ensuring the enduring prosperity of regions heavily reliant on tourism.
