India’s outburst of online classes during Covid-19 impacts the mental health of students
Evaluate the Feasibility of the Implementation of E-Assessment in Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) in Pharmacy Education from the Examiner’s Perspectives
With the wide application of the OSCE in the field of pharmacy, the development of e-assessment in OSCE is a predictable trend. However, the feasibility of its practical application and the acceptance of examiners who are accustomed to using traditional paper-based methods are worthy of being discussed. The e-assessment system (EAS) was constructed in this study and used in the examination process. Examiner satisfaction and changes in acceptance …

Queries on the Covid‐19 quick publishing ethics
The Editorial titled “COVID19: Why justice and transparency in hospital triage policies are paramount” by Schuklenk, which appeared in Bioethics, is striking, as it features the importance of honesty and openness in research ethics.1 Ethics, of course, is an integral part of research, and publication ethics is even more crucial to sustain the quality of scientific output. Critics, however, argue that publication ethics in general generates less a…

Partnership for poverty reduction in Gujarat, India
India's 84 million indigenous people inhabit the harsh drylands that receive low rainfall. In the rankings of the Indian caste system, adivasi (meaning ‘original people’ or tribal) are the most downtrodden socially and economically. They have less access to commerce and public services. The challenges of poverty reduction in India's drylands are complex so not just one agency can tackle this issue. This article offers a case study on how a non-pr…
Irrigation-based social work relieves poverty in India’s drylands
India’s drylands, located in the states of Gujarat and Rajasthan, receive low rainfall (annual average of 95–1000 mm). Farmers have to rely on the monsoon rains to cultivate crops. Realizing the irrigation water need of the farmers who inhabit the drylands, a non-profit agency called NM Sadguru Water and Development Foundation (hereafter, the Sadguru Foundation), initiated social work based on irrigation water to assist farmers in growing more cr…

Interactions between visitors and Formosan macaques ( Macaca cyclopis ) at Shou‐Shan Nature Park, Taiwan
Ecotourism involving feeding wildlife has raised public attention and is a controversial issue, especially concerning nonhuman primates. Between July 2002 and April 2005, the behavior of monkeys and tourists was collected through scan samplings, focal samplings and behavior samplings at the Shou‐Shan Nature Park located in Taiwan's second largest city—Kaohsiung. In addition, the number of tourists and monkeys was counted in different hours and pl…
Sustainable Development Using Small Dams An Approach to Avert Social Conflict and Relive Poverty in India's Semi-arid Regions
This paper presents data on how water-based social work involving check dams and lift irrigation in villages could enhance rural development activities that will benefit poor farmers in western India. The irrigation water provided to farmers through check dams and lift irrigation systems have ultimately transformed infertile drylands into productive agricultural lands, revived rivers during the dry season, recharged groundwater, sustained natural…

English This article presents data on simple rainwater harvesting practiced by a nonprofit agency in India. By constructing cost-effective check dams and liftirrigation systems, rural agriculture was improved and this ultimately relieved poverty and rejuvenated grassroots socioeconomic and sociopolitical changes in the least developed tribal drylands of western India.

India's homosexual discrimination and health consequences
A large number of countries worldwide have legalized homosexual rights. But for 147 years, since when India was a British colony, Section 377 of the Indian Penal Code defines homosexuality as a crime, punishable by imprisonment. This outdated law violates the fundamental rights of homosexuals in India. Despite the fact that literature drawn from Hindu, Buddhist, Muslim, and modern fiction testify to the presence of same-sex love in various forms,…

Cytogenetic analysis shows extensive genomic rearrangements between red howler ( Alouatta seniculus, Linnaeus ) subspecies
A comparison of the G‐banded karyotypes of two red howler subspecies, Alouatta seniculus arctoidea and A. s. sara , showed that they differed by at least 14 chromosomal rearrangements. Genomic reshuffling is so great that homologs between subspecies could not be found for some chromosome, while the assignment of homology for other chromosomes remains uncertain. The two red howlers, however, share an unusual X 1 X 2 Y 1 Y 2 / X 1 X 1 X 2 X 2 sex‐c…
Urinary progesterone in free-ranging red howler monkeys (Alouatta seniculus)
The goals of this study were to develop and validate a radioimmunoassay (RIA) for measurement of unconjugated progesterone (P) concentrations in the urine of red howler monkeys (Alouatta seniculus) and to use urinary P profiles to characterize the reproductive cycle of this species. Analysis of P profiles from two females provided a preliminary estimate of the length of the estrous cycle (mean days +/- S.E.M. = 29.5 +/- 1.5; n = 2), and indicated…
High incidence of supernumerary nipples and twins in Formosan macaques (Macaca cyclopis) At Mt. Longevity, Taiwan
A population of Formosan macaques at Mt. Longevity exhibits an unusually high incidence of supernumerary nipples (polythelia: between 1-6 accessory nipples and/or areolae on 33% of adults), as well as a high rate of twinning (about 1% of births). The coexistence of these unusual traits suggests a connection, which is further supported by a tendency for mothers of twins to have accessory nipples and for twins to be born in troops with high inciden…
