The girls have not vanished overnight. Decades of sex determination tests and female foeticide that has acquired genocide proportions are finally catching up with states in India.
This is only the tip of the demographic and social problems confronting India in the coming years. Skewed sex ratios have moved beyond the states of Punjab, Haryana, Delhi, Gujarat and Himachal Pradesh. With news of increasing number of female foetuses being aborted from Orissa to Bangalore there is ample evidence to suggest that the next census will reveal a further fall in child sex ratios throughout the country.
The decline in child sex ratio in India is evident by comparing the census figures. In 1991, the figure was 947 girls to 1000 boys. Ten years later it had fallen to 927 girls for 1000 boys.
Since 1991, 80% of districts in India have recorded a declining sex ratio with the state of Punjab being the worst.
States like Maharashtra, Gujarat, Punjab, Himachal Pradesh and Haryana have recorded a more than 50 point decline in the child sex ratio in this period.
Despite these horrific numbers, foetal sex determination and sex selective abortion by unethical medical professionals has today grown into a Rs. 1,000 crore industry (US$ 244 million). Social discrimination against women, already entrenched in Indian society, has been spurred on by technological developments that today allow mobile sex selection clinics to drive into almost any village or neighbourhood unchecked.
The PCPNDT Act 1994 (Preconception and Prenatal Diagnostic Techniques Act) was modified in 2003 to target the medical profession - the ‘supply side’ of the practice of sex selection. However non implementation of the Act has been the biggest failing of the campaign against sex selection
According to the latest data available till May 2006, as many as 22 out of 35 states in India had not reported a single case of violation of the act since it came into force. Delhi reported the largest number of violations – 76 out of which 69 were cases of non registration of birth! Punjab had 67 cases and Gujarat 57 cases.
But the battle rages on.

Ethical issues of hiv and aids in healthBabli Gupta
This document discusses several ethical issues related to HIV/AIDS in healthcare. It outlines how HIV is transmitted through sexual contact, blood transfusions, or from mother to child during pregnancy. While social stigma remains, transmission requires intimate contact and is not possible through everyday interactions like shaking hands or sharing facilities. The document then examines ethics issues such as disclosure of HIV status, disability rights, access to resources for treatment, employment discrimination, dissatisfaction with medical care, high suicide rates, duty to warn partners, and counseling best practices including helping clients address disclosure concerns, coping with treatment challenges, and engaging in risk reduction.
The Consumer Protection Act (CPA) was passed in 1986 to better protect consumer interests in India. It established consumer councils and authorities to settle disputes. Under the CPA, a consumer is defined as any person who avails of services for consideration, either paid or promised. Health care services are considered a service under the act. The CPA provides advantages over civil courts like faster resolution times and no court fees. It allows consumers to file complaints over deficient or negligent services. Hospitals and doctors can be held liable depending on if they charge fees. The act has a three-tier structure for resolving complaints at the district, state, and national levels.
Disabled people have faced discrimination through being denied jobs and called humiliating names due to beliefs that they are dependent, unable to cope alone, less intelligent, and not fit to breed. However, disabled people have proven these beliefs wrong through accomplishments like the world's smartest man being disabled and disabled people participating in their own Olympics, demonstrating that not all disabled people are as incapable as assumed.
The Consumer Protection Act, 1986 aims to protect consumer interests in India. It established consumer councils at central and state levels to provide remedies to consumers. The Act defines key terms and sets up a three-tier system for consumer dispute resolution - district forums, state commissions, and a national commission. It allows consumers to file complaints against businesses for defective goods or deficient services.

HIV/AIDS
HIV stands for Human Immunodeficiency Virus. AIDS stands for Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome. AIDS is a result of the development of the HIV virus into a more serious condition. AIDS was first recognised by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in 1981 and its cause, HIV, identified in the early 1980s.
Understanding HIV
HIV is a contagious infection which attacks the immune system, reducing its effectiveness and leaving the body susceptible to infections. The HIV infection damages the cells the body needs to fight illnesses. AIDS can be diagnosed when the number of immune system cells (CD4 cells) in the blood of a person with HIV drops below a certain level.
There is no cure for HIV or AIDS, but there are treatments that can slow down the disease, and help prevent the onset of AIDS. It takes around ten years for someone with HIV to develop AIDS, but it can be prevented with early detection and treatment of the HIV

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune DiseaseHealth Advances
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.

Local Advanced Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex Sys...Oleg Kshivets
Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).

An Analytical Study was conducted on Rights of
Children and the Constitution of India by Jyotiraj
Pathak ,Bodoland University, Assam, India, on March
2012. The Constitution of India has been an
outstanding document for protecting the rights and
interest of its citizen. Fundamental Rights and the
Directive Principles of State Policy to the present day
judicial activism, our Constitution has been trying its
best to protect the interest of the children.
70. However, in spite of all the constitutional, legal and
institutional provisions rights of children are being
violated in India. Child labour is an issue where rights
of children are widely violated. Constitutional
provisions like justice, equality, liberty, and the
fundamental rights have failed to protect the interest
and rights of children and specially the poor child
labourer. It is in this context that the present paper is
going to analyse the situation of child labourer vis-à-
vis Indian constitution. At the same time the paper will
also attempt to have a deeper insight on the status of
child labour and constitutional response to it.
