- INDIAN LITERATURE: EVOLUTION, DIVERSITY, AND CONTEMPORARY RELEVANCEAbstract : Indian literature, rooted in a three-millennia-old tradition, embodies the cultural, linguistic, and philosophical richness of the subcontinent. From ancient sacred texts like the *Vedas* and *Upanishads* to contemporary literary expressions, Indian storytelling has evolved across multiple languages and genres. This research examines the historical evolution, thematic concerns, and contemporary relevance of Indian literature. It explores feminist reinterpretations of epics, testimonial fiction, gendered memories of Partition, environmental narratives, agrarian crises, censorship, and the interplay between technology and humanity in modern storytelling. By analyzing literary works through postcolonial, feminist, and ecological lenses, this study underscores the dynamic nature of Indian literature and its enduring impact on global discourse. Keywords: Indian literature, Feminist discourse, Partition narratives, Environmental literature, Postcolonial studies, Censorship in literature, Artificial intelligence in storytelling. Literature Review : Indian literature has long reflected the socio-political and cultural transformations of the subcontinent. Classical texts like the ‘Mahabharata’ and ‘Ramayana’ established archetypal narratives, which continue to be revisited and reinterpreted. Feminist readings of these epics highlight gendered violence and societal expectations, as seen in studies on ‘Sita’, ‘Draupadi’, and ‘Amba’. Partition literature, including ‘Toba Tek Singh’, ‘The Heart Divided’, and ‘Sunlight on a Broken Column’, provides testimonial insights into displacement, trauma, and resilience. These narratives, particularly those by Muslim women, emphasize memory as a means of reconstructing fractured identities. Ecocriticism has emerged as a vital perspective in Indian literature, analyzing works like ‘Train to Pakistan’ that depict the environmental consequences of political upheaval. Similarly, agrarian crises are explored in ‘Nero’s Guests’, which documents the socio-economic struggles of Indian farmers, reinforcing the urgency of systemic interventions. Contemporary challenges such as censorship and political persecution have affected Indian authors like Salman Rushdie and Perumal Murugan. Their works underscore the fragile balance between free expression and socio-religious sensitivities. Additionally, the infiltration of technology in literature, as observed in ‘Android Kunjappan Version 5.25’, raises questions about the ethical implications of artificial intelligence in human relationships. Together, these literary explorations reveal Indian literature’s capacity to address historical and contemporary issues while adapting to changing socio-political landscapes.

- Metformin in SALI The gut microbiota imbalance is primarily characterized by an increase in the abundance of succinate-producing bacteria (Prevotellaceae and Bacteroidaceae) and a decrease in succinate-consuming bacteria (Ruminococcaceae and Clostridiaceae) after CLP-induced SALI. This dysbiosis leads to elevated succinate levels in both serum and lung tissue. However, metformin effectively reduces succinate levels by modulating the gut microbiota, which subsequently regulates the polarization of alveolar macrophages (AMs) and exerts anti-inflammatory effects by inhibiting succinate receptor 1 (SUCNR1) and the downstream PI3K/AKT/HIF-1α signaling pathway.
- Cicada Necrobiome Drives Greenhouse and Trace Gas Pulses Following Periodic Mass EmergenceThis study was conducted using the 2021 Brood X emergence of periodical cicadas in the United States of America (U.S.), which began in mid-May 2021, as a model for periodical cicada ecosystem disturbance. Cicadas were collected around Bloomington, Indiana (IN), U.S. The experimental site was located in mixed deciduous forest Griffy Woods in southern IN. Measurements of potential gas fluxes were made from 6 microcosms, with 2880 datapoints per sample. Analysis of microbial communities from field chambers was carried out on 20 samples. Analysis of microbial communities from the time series experiments was carried out on 64 samples. Measurements of respiration rates were made from 6 OxiTop® respirometers, with one datapoint per day. Quantification of nitrate and ammonification was carried out on 32 samples. Quantification of C:N was carried out on 15 samples. We found that the interface between cicada carcasses and soil surfaces is the site of enhanced microbial nutrient cycling that leads to a pulse of N2O and NH3 after ~10-15 days. The dominant mechanism of N2O and NH3 production is likely dissimilatory nitrate reduction to ammonia (DNRA), as indicated by increased abundance of DNRA taxa on cicada carcass surfaces (the necrobiome) synchronous with the gas pulses.
- Hyperspectral_corn_seed_datasetThe dataset simulates phenotypic analysis scenarios of maize seeds under controlled laboratory conditions, with the ambient temperature maintained at 20–25°C. Comprehensive testing was conducted using 12 different maize varieties. Approximately 200 seed samples were collected per variety, resulting in a total sample size of about 2400, each subjected to hyperspectral and RGB image acquisition. Preprocessing steps included noise reduction, background removal, band selection, and modality alignment. To ensure the accuracy and reliability of the experimental data, HHIT software and Python were utilized for data processing.
- Survey data on digital competency assessment among pre-service teachers in VietnamThe dataset provides detailed information on each participant’s self-assessed competency levels in 5 domains, along with demographic variables such as gender and training specialization. The value of this dataset lies in its potential to inform teacher training programs and educational policy: it offers evidence on areas of strength and weakness in future teachers’ digital skills. Educational researchers and policymakers can use the data to identify gaps in pre-service teacher preparation and to design targeted interventions for improving digital competence.

- Cytokines in Patients with Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplant Treated with Topical CyclosporineGraft-Versus-Host Disease(GVHD) is a serious complication after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT), and ocular involvement is common. Ikervis is increasingly being used in the treatment of ocular symptoms. Detecting cytokines in the tears of allo-HSCT patients after using these eye drops helps to gain a deeper understanding of the drug's mechanism, evaluate treatment efficacy, and provide a basis for optimizing clinical treatment plans. This data collection aims to explore the situation of allo-HSCT patients after using Ikervis. Data Description included: (1) Patient Basic Information: Includes patient number, ID, age, gender, etc. (2) Disease - related Information: disease diagnosis, disease stage, previous treatment history, etc. (3) Eye Drop Information: dosage and frequency. (4) Ocular Examination Indicators: intraocular pressure, conjunctival hyperemia, tear osmolarity. (5) Cytokine Detection: Levels of various cytokines. Through the analysis of the data on the detection of cytokines in the tears of allo-HSCT patients after using Ikervis eye drops, we have proposed relevant research hypotheses and found some notable phenomena from the data. These findings help us better understand the therapeutic effects of eye drops, the impact of patient characteristics on treatment, and the association between cytokines and ocular symptoms. By reasonably interpreting and using these data, valuable references can be provided for clinical treatment and drug use, ultimately improving the ocular health of allo-HSCT patients. However, it should be noted that this study still has certain limitations, such as a relatively small sample size. In the future, more in - depth research needs to be carried out to improve the relevant conclusions.
