Karwa Chauth 2021: Know when and why it is celebrated?

Karwa Chauth 2021: Festival celebrated for the well-being of one's spouse

Celebrated by women and sometimes even men, Karwa&nbsp;Chauth&nbsp;is an auspicious festival.&nbsp;This year this festival is being celebrated on Sunday, 24 October.

Karwa&nbsp;Chauth&nbsp;2021:&nbsp;Majorly&nbsp;celebrated with a lot of&nbsp;enthusiasm in North India, Karwa&nbsp;Chauth&nbsp;is an important festival. As per the Hindu&nbsp;lunar calendar, the festival falls on the fourth day&nbsp;of the Krishna Paksha of Kartik month.&nbsp;This year this festival is being celebrated on Sunday, 24 October.
The word&nbsp;Karwa Chauth is derived from two words: 'Karva,' which refers to an earthen pot with a spout, and 'Chauth,' which refers to the fourth. On this day women and sometimes even men observe a fast and pray for the long life&nbsp;and well-being of their spouses. During the fast, not even a drop of water is consumed.&nbsp;
Apart from offering prayers, numerous mythological stories are recited during the puja. This year the Karwa&nbsp;Chauth&nbsp;Puja&nbsp;timing is between 6:55 pm to 8:51 pm on October 24.&nbsp;There is also a tradition of seeing the moon to break the&nbsp;Karwa Chauth&nbsp;fast. And the fast ends after offering food and water to the moon.&nbsp;

Recent research by the Australian National University found that optimal blood pressure helps our brains stay at least six months younger than our actual age.

Control your blood pressure now to save your brain later: Study 

In a study published in the journal Frontiers in Ageing Neuroscience, scientists report on an influential factor that can tip the scales toward a younger or older brain: blood pressure.

An 'optimal' blood pressure can help keep your brain young and sprightly 

High or normal blood pressure places people at risk of brain aging
Optimal blood pressure helps brains age slower: Study
Researchers examined more than 2,000 brain scans of 686 individuals
Participants with high BP had a greater risk of heart disease &amp; dementia
Brains will remain younger, if optimal blood pressure is maintained
Young people should check their blood pressure regularly: Researchers

People with elevated blood pressure that falls within the normal recommended range are at risk of accelerated brain ageing, according to a recent research published in Frontiers in Ageing Neuroscience.

According to new research by the Australian National University, high or normal blood pressure places individuals at risk of accelerated brain ageing. Inversely, optimal blood pressure can help brains stay six months younger than one&rsquo;s chronological age. The study was published in Frontiers in Ageing Neuroscience.

Normal blood pressure is defined by pressure below 120/80, whereas an optimal and healthier blood pressure is closer to 110/70. The ANU team in collaboration with colleagues in Australia, New Zealand and Germany, examined more than 2,000 brain scans of 686 healthy individuals. The blood pressure of the participants was measured up to four times across a 12-year period.
The ANU study found that participants with high blood pressure had older and therefore less healthy brains, increasing their risk of heart disease, stroke and dementia. Researchers also found that participants with the elevated blood pressure but within the normal range too had older-looking brains and were at risk of health problems.
If optimal blood pressure is maintained, brains will remain younger and healthier, researchers concluded. Findings show the need for everyone including young people to check their blood pressure regularly.

United Nations Day 2021: Building Back Together for Peace and Prosperity

Observed on 24th October each year, United Nations Day commemorates the day in 1945 when the United Nations Charter came into effect.

United Nations Day 2021: Observed on 24th October each year, United Nations Day commemorates the day in 1945 when the United Nations Charter came into effect.&nbsp;Representatives from 50 countries convened in San Francisco to draw the United Nations Charter at the United Nations Conference on International Organization.
Since its establishment, the charter has been&nbsp;amended three times&nbsp;in 1963, 1965, and 1973. The day works towards restating and amplifying the&nbsp;UN Charter's goals and ideologies.&nbsp;&nbsp;
The UN charter holds within itself a very unique international character and powers due to which they can take action on a wide variety of issues.&nbsp;As a result, the UN Charter is an instrument of international law, and all UN Member States are obligated to follow it.
As the world slowly works towards recovering from the Covid-19 pandemic, United Nations Day 2021 is rallying a cry for international collaboration for peace and prosperity for all.&nbsp;

Gasping for breath? Blame the rising respiratory problems

As per the Global Impact of Respiratory Disease Report, respiratory disorders continue to be a primary cause of mortality and disability.

Whether it is caused by smoking tobacco or second hand&nbsp;smoke or air pollution, respiratory problems are on the rise. As per the Global Impact of Respiratory Disease Report, despite the availability of cost-effective health therapies, respiratory disorders are the primary cause of deaths and disability.
Moreover, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)&nbsp;affects almost 200 million people which constitutes 4% of the global population. And 3.2 million people die from COPD each year, making it the world's third major cause of death. The emergence of the coronavirus has only made the situation worse.&nbsp;
As highlighted by the Forum of International Respiratory Societies, there are some steps that can be taken to help reduce the problem of respiratory diseases.&nbsp;
<ul>
<li>Raise awareness about the importance of respiratory health, especially the fact that childhood respiratory disease has long-term detrimental consequences for adult health</li>
<li>Reduce the use of tobacco and smoking products&nbsp;</li>
<li>Improve respiratory disease prevention and early detection</li>
<li>Increase global healthcare professional education and training in respiratory disease</li>
</ul>

Leading the guidance and research about the novel coronavirus, the pandemic created celebrities out of scientists and health experts.&nbsp;&nbsp;
From speaking on news channels to active updates on social media, this newfound prominence has come at a price for many scientists in the public eye.&nbsp;A survey of 321 scientists by Nature magazine found that 22 per cent of experts have received threats of physical and sexual violence as&nbsp;a result of publicly talking about Covid-19.

Nearly 15% said they have received death threats&nbsp;and a whopping two-thirds revealed&nbsp;they had had a negative experience after appearing in the media.&nbsp;From threats like &lsquo;I hope you die&rsquo; or &lsquo;I would shoot you&rsquo; to racist remarks like &lsquo;go back to where you came&nbsp;from&rsquo; and &lsquo;eat a bat and die,&rsquo; a&nbsp;massive&nbsp;amount of abuse&nbsp;is directed at scientists&nbsp;for&nbsp;contributing to the pandemic response.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Some of these attacks have&nbsp;also&nbsp;made headlines, including&nbsp;Indian doctors who have been spat at and chased away from their homes as well as&nbsp;UK&rsquo;s chief medical advisor who was assaulted in a park.&nbsp;&nbsp;
For researchers who receive online abuse, Nature suggests individual coping strategies like trying to ignore&nbsp;the comments; filtering&nbsp;e-mails&nbsp;and blocking&nbsp;online&nbsp;trolls; or, for abuse on a specific social media platform, deleting or&nbsp;temporarily&nbsp;deactivating accounts might help.
