“…7 shows the concentration of female literacy rates within the total literacy rates in Aligarh District, 2011. The location quotient technique is used to analyze the concentration of female literacy rate (Khan et al, 2022). It is seen from the above table that no uniformity of female literacy is found among all blocks of Aligarh District.…”

When you teach a man, you only educate one person; when you educate a woman, you educate a whole nation. Literacy is one of the most crucial abilities for personal and cultural growth and development, thus critical to India's socio-economic development. Because of the rapid changes in society and the economy, the value of literacy has grown in the modern world. Literacy gender disparities are a barrier in almost every undeveloped and developing country across the globe. While India has made every effort to ensure sex disparity in literacy is brought down as overall literacy levels increase year after year, to be reported every time a census is conducted, several aspects demand attention to date. However, a significant disparity based on gender has been seen in India at 16.27 percent, as per the 2011 census. This paper endeavors to study these complex issues and their dynamics in light of trends in literacy emerging in Aligarh District at the block level over the census conducted in 2001 and 2011. An attempt has been made to analyze changes in literacy patterns, decadal growth rates, and the gender gap in literacy in Aligarh district. This study is entirely based on secondary data collected from different sources, i.e., District Statistical Handbooks, Census of India, and statistical abstract. The literacy rate in the Aligarh district is 67.85 percent, and the female literacy rate is only 61.27 percent compared to the male literacy rate, i.e., 73.73 percent. Statistical techniques used in the analysis are simple percentages and the location quotient technique used to analyze the concentration of female literacy. ArcGIS 10.5 software is used to prepare maps. In this study, it has been found that there is a wide gender disparity in Aligarh District, which is 12.46 percent, whereas it is highest in Tappal and lowest in Lodha at the block level.

Background The hemoglobin-albumin-lymphocyte-platelet (HALP) index is a novel biomarker reflecting systemic inflammation and nutritional status which are important for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) mortality. However, the association between HALP and mortality in patients with COVID-19 has yet to be investigated. Methods A cohort of COVID-19 Omicron BA.2 infected patients admitted to the Shanghai Fourth People’s Hospital, School of Medicine, Tongji University from April 12, 2022 to June 17, 2022 was retrospectively analyzed. Laboratory examinations on hospital admission, including hemoglobin, albumin, and lymphocyte and platelet, were collected. The association between baseline HALP and in-hospital poor overall survival (OS) was assessed using Kaplan–Meier curves, Cox regression models, interaction, and stratified analyses. Results A total of 2147 patients with COVID-19 Omicron BA.2 infection were included in the final analyses, and mortality in the hospital was 2.65%. Multivariate analysis indicated that low HALP index was independently associated with in-hospital mortality of COVID-19 patients [hazard ratio (HR) = 2.08; 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.17–3.73]. Subgroup analysis demonstrated that low HALP index was an independent risk factor for in-hospital mortality in COVID-19 patients with age ≥70 (HR = 2.22, CI = 1.18–4.15) and severe cases (HR = 2.09, CI = 1.13–3.86). Conclusion HALP index is independently related to in-hospital poor OS for COVID-19 Omicron BA.2 infected patients, especially for age ≥70 and severe cases. HALP index on hospital admission is a useful candidate biomarker for identifying high risk of mortality in COVID-19 Omicron BA.2 infected patients.
