A Randomized control trial: ‘‘Effect on application of transillumination device during peripheral IV Line cannulation on selected parameters among hospitalized under five children in navimumbai
Abstract: Transillumination is defined as passing of a light through the walls of a body part or organs to facilitate medical inspection 30. In transillumination, the hemoglobin within the vessel absorbs the light while the surrounding tissue scatters it thereby providing a suitable contrast between the vein and surrounding subcutaneous tissue. Veins can be identified between the fibre-optic arms as dark lines in the pinker subcutaneous tissue. Surface veins appear darker …

From Fiction to Reality: Feasibility Study of Arcologies like Peach Trees in ContemporaryUrban Contexts
Abstract: The concept of arcologies—self-contained vertical cities that integrate housing, workspaces, and amenities within a singular megastructure—has emerged as a potential solution for urban planners and architects, echoing both the utopian ambitions and the critiques of high-density urbanism. Drawing from both speculative fiction and real-world high-density developments such as the Kowloon Walled City and Marina Bay Sands, this study examines arcologies through the multidisciplinary lenses of architecture, urban governance, environmental sustainability, …

Exploring the Insider-Outsider Perspective in Interpreting Indigenous Built Heritage: A Case of Sahariya Tribe in Madhya Pradesh
Abstract: Globally, cross-cultural research has become important especially for understanding marginalized and vulnerable voices allowing researchers to find answers resonating with these communities’ lived experiences. A very critical concept in cross-cultural research is the insider-outsider positionality as subjective interpretations contribute towards determining the notion of heritage and influence the outcome of the qualitative research. This paper examines the above-mentioned duality in establishing built heritage of tribal communities in Indian context. In …
