Corneal Transplantation

With Videos

By: Namrata Sharma,Ritu Nagpal,Rasik B Vajpayee

The cornea is the clear, outer layer at the front of the eyeball. It acts as a window to the eye. The cornea helps to focus light rays onto the retina, this image is then transmitted to the brain. When the cornea is damaged, it can become less transparent or its shape can change. This can prevent light reaching the retina and causes the picture transmitted to the brain to be distorted or unclear. A corneal transplant, also known as keratoplasty or a corneal graft, is an operation to remove all or part of a damaged cornea and replace it with healthy donor tissue. It is used to improve sight, relieve pain and treat severe infection or damage. One of the most common reasons for a cornea transplant is a condition called keratoconus, which causes the cornea to change shape. (NHS.UK) This book is a guide to corneal transplantation (keratoplasty) for ophthalmic surgeons. Divided into seven sections, the text begins with an overview of evolution, preoperative considerations, and eye banking. The following sections cover a multitude of keratoplasty techniques, including endothelial keratoplasty, and their potential complications. The book concludes with discussion on alternatives to corneal transplantation. The third edition of this comprehensive manual has been fully revised, with new topics added, to provide surgeons with the latest advances in the field. A selection of operative videos can be accessed via a QR code provided in the book. The previous edition (9788184488593) published in 2010.

Eco-Restoration of Mine Land

By: Vimal Chandra Pandey,Jitendra Ahirwal,Roopali Roychowdhury,Ritu Chaturvedi

Eco-Restoration of Mine Land An authoritative introduction to the ecosystem-based approach for restoring land after coal and mineral mining operations. Mining activities, in particular where metal ores have been mined, often leave behind vast areas of dumps and disused mine lands that have become environmental hazards. Soil degradation and poisoning are major environmental concerns in these areas, requiring comprehensive and long-term interventions in order to restore those lands to an ecologically productive state. Eco-Restoration of Mine Land provides a comprehensive overview of ecosystem-based solutions for remediating polluted soil and re-establishing vegetation in disused mine lands, synthesizing cutting-edge research, experiential knowledge, and longstanding best practices to offer a holistic introduction to the science of mine land restoration. Eco-Restoration of Mine Land readers will also find: A basic introduction to soil contamination, risk assessment, and phytoremediation of mine land Discussion of carbon sequestration potential of restored mine soils and other environmental benefits of remediated mine land The use of biological soil quality indicators to assess progress in ecosystem restoration Eco-Restoration of Mine Land is a valuable guide for researchers and advanced students in the environmental and ecological sciences, as well as professionals working in environmental remediation, providing a much-needed survey of this increasingly critical subject.

Explorations into Sustainable Development with Forest and Biodiversity Conservation

By: Dr. Ritu Dhingra

Forests being the lungs of planet Earth are the most important ecosystems. They act as carbon sinks and sustain a huge amount of carbon in them. They play an extremely important role for the survival of the living beings on this earth. From human beings to the flora and fauna of the earth’s ecosystem depend on the forests in some way or the other. Forests are the repositories of enormous biodiversity on this planet. They are an adobe to millions of species of animals including human beings, plants and microorganisms. They also give massive ecosystem services to mankind and to all the living beings thriving on this earth. They regulate climate, water cycles and carbon sequestering on this planet. They even provide a livelihood to human beings all over the world. They check global warming on this earth. The parameter of sustainable development is that forest and biodiversity is conserved for the coming generations also. Forests are the most important repositories of terrestrial biological diversity. The diversity of life amongst the living beings and their distinct habitats, the interactions between the various components of the biodiversity makes this planet a habitable place for various life forms. Forest conservation is extremely important for intergenerational equity and the principle of sustainable development paves the way. The forests especially in the domains of forestry and agriculture provide 40% of the world’s economy. This is due to the biological diversity in the forest ecosystems. 70% of the world’s poor populace who live in rural areas is directly dependent on biodiversity for their livelihood. A rough estimate of 60 million indigenous folks are somehow reliant on forests for their daily needs. The Supreme Court of India in Rural Litigation and Entitlement Kendra v. State of Uttar Pradesh elucidated the importance of ecosystem services as provided by the forests.

How We Twisted a Mean Snake?

By: Ritu Verma Chhokar

My name is Croaky. Chatting is my most dear pastime. I can talk non-stop about anything. I am totally abreast about world news, sports, weather, and even the tabloids. My friends are often left stupefied by my excellent knowledge of current affairs. I have won many laurels in quizzing. Adventure sport is my thing. I can leap from one corner of my huge pond to another in fraction of seconds. My friends who have seen me somersaulting have been left gaping at it. Put me on a jungle gym and I can impress you with breathtaking acrobatics. I am not a bragger, but if there is a Mr. Popular contest in this pond, I would be a thumbs-up winner. I am one happy frog. But today is different. I am super terrified. Slither is super ferocious and has created a big commotion in the pond. The fish isnt moving and are pretending to be dead. The big animals who were drinking water from the pond have stopped and are enveloped with unknown fear. Slither is moving dangerously in the water. He is determined to gobble each and every one of us up but just then a miracle happens. Slither cannot move anymore. OMG! He is hissing dangerously and blowing fire out of his eyes. What happened to Slither, the mean snake? How did the small little frogs manage to do this to the big humongous snake?

Women at the Frontline of Climate Change

Gender Risks and Hopes, a Rapid Response Assessment

By: Christian Nellemann,Ritu Verma,Lawrence Hislop

Adaptation, vulnerability and resilience of people to climate change depend upon a range of conditions. These vary from their degree of exposure and dependency upon weather patterns for livelihoods and food security, to varying capacities in adaptation, which are influenced by gender, social status, economic poverty, power, access, and control and ownership over resources in the household, community and society. This report demonstrates that women represent a primary resource for adaptation through their their experience, responsibilities and strengh, and that women play a much stronger role in the management of ecosystem services and food security. Hence, it argues that sustainable adaptation must focus on gender and the role of women if it is to become successful.
