Aim: This study aims to analyze the impact/relationship of the health indicators and the human developmentindex over the globe’s misery index.Materials and Method: In this paper, a comparative data analysis of the misery index, health indicators likemortality rate, disability rate, Quality of life index, and human development index, along with the rankingbased on the human development index, were done by tabulating the data collected from the electronicsources.Results: There was a strong correlation between the misery index, human development index, and healthindicators.Conclusion: This paper clearly shows that the misery index of a country was highly influenced by the healthindicators, such as the mortality rate, disability rate, and Quality of life. Further, the human developmentindex also had a comparative impact on the misery index of a country. Hence, this study depicted a descriptivestatistical relationship among the misery index, the health indicators (mortality rate, disability rate, Qualityof life) and the Human Development Index (HDI).

Abstract

Background: Pesticides are used extensively around the world and it has many health significance due to the usage of glyphosate,phorates, and monocrotophos that were mainly used as organophosphate pesticides in all the countries. Aim: To evaluate the countries which banned glyphosate, phorates, and monocrotophos hazardous pesticide usage and to assess the severity of risks caused by exposure of the pesticides.Methodology: This study was based on a review of scientific publications on usage of hazardous pesticides such as glyphosate, phorates, monocrotophos, and its impact on public health.Data were retrieved from the manual and electronic database by using the search engines (PubMed and google scholar). Results: European countries had banned glyphosate, phorate, and Monocrotophos pesticides within the year 2015 to 2019 whereas in India, two states namely Punjab and Kerala had banned glyphosate pesticides by the year 2018 to 2019, Phorates pesticides had banned in 2019, and monocrotophos pesticides were banned by the two states namely Punjab and Maharashtra in the year 2018. Glyphosate pesticides caused more impact on cancer and other health effects in the body in contrast to the other two pesticides had a lesser impact on cancer.Conclusion: Chemical pesticides can protect and improve farm productivity. However, their inimical and environmental health effects makes an inadequate long-term solution. Hence, to overcome this problem, there must be minimization of the usage of chemical pesticides and introduction of eco-friendly natural pesticides, which are easily accessible, low cost, and healthy method of a pest control system.
