Published: August 2022

The latest developments in medical imaging and computer-aided solutions for image processing problems attract attention of various researchers to impart their research in the medical imaging field.   Designing and developing efficient algorithms to present the medical information effectively have become critical areas of research in this field. A 3-Stage Hybrid Computer Aided Design system is introduced to identify Brain tumor in earlier stages by extracting meaningful information from multimodal medical images. The preferred multi-modality images is Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Computed Tomography (CT). The CAD system proposed in this paper can eliminate the dependency on human operators as it is an efficient software-based system. The first stage in this model consists of image pre-processing with Wavelet and Curvelet transforms. The second stage of the CAD system is an image segmentation process, which involves a combination of Wavelet Transform and Watershed Technique. The third stage involves image fusion, where the individually segmented CT and MRI images are fused together to obtain an integrated complementary information from two different images. This is followed by decomposing CT and MRI images using the Dual Tree Complex Wavelet Transform (DTCWT) and Nonsubsampled Contourlet Transform (NSCT).

Published: August 2022

Renal transplant is the organ transplant of a kidney into a patient with end-stage kidney disease (ESRD).  It is important to regularly monitor the new kidney's function by measuring serum creatinine and other laboratory measurements at least every three months for the rest of the person's life. The pathophysiology underlying bone disorders after transplantation are  resulted from a complex interplay of factors. Current review aims to investigate the bone status of the patients after renal transplant by evaluating their physical and clinical bone tests( PTH ,vit D3,ALP,Ca,P,Mg and DEXA scan). The clinical utility of serum markers of bone turnover . para thyroid hormone levels drop by half in the first six months following transplantation, but remain elevated in almost half of kidney transplant patients two years later. Levels of 1,25–dihydroxy vitamin D [1,25(OH)2D] have been linked to improved kidney function. After kidney transplantation, serum calcium generally follows a biphasic pattern. After 3-6 months after transplantation, hypercalcemia has been recorded in about 5%–15% of patients. Hypophosphatemia is frequent in the early post–transplant period, with 50% of acute kidney transplant patients experiencing it.

In recent years the science of dental materials and implantology have taken many steps forward. In particular, it has tended to optimize the implant design, the implant surface, or the connection between implant and abutment. All these features have been improved or modified to obtain a better response from the body, better biomechanics, increased bone implant contact surface, and better immunological response. The purpose of this article, carried out by a multidisciplinary team, is to evaluate and understand, through the use also of bioengineering tests, the biomechanical aspects, and those induced on the patient’s tissues, by dental implants. A comparative analysis on different dental implant systems  of the OSSTEM manufacturer  was carried out to evaluate biomechanical and molecular features. Von Mises analysis has given results regarding the biomechanical behavior of these implants and above all the repercussions on the patient’s tissues. Knowing and understanding the biomechanical characteristics with studies of this type could help improve their characteristics in order to have more predictable oral rehabilitations.

Published: August 2022

ABSTRACT There has been an unprecedented transformation and revolution in human culture in the 21st century which cut across all sphere including sexual values. This transformation has also been noticed in consensual unions over the last few decades in many developed countries in the West most especially among students in the university (Blom et al 1993, Bumpass et al 1991, Kiernan 1996). This has given birth to a culture of cohabitation, and there is a growing trend of cohabitation and premarital sexual intercourse since the 1960s (Scherrer & Klepacki 2004; Musick 2007). The changing trends in the social life of Nigerian of recent have made many practices like cohabiting in higher institutions in shared hostels an accepted norm. Several studies which looked at the impact of cohabitation of unmarried couples have been conducted and there is uniformity in their result which shows higher risk of marital disruption, disruption in education pursuit, unstable family background ( Bumpass & Sweet,1989), and lower commitment to the institution of marriage (Bennett et al. 1988). Also, various degree of association has been found between premarital cohabitation and divorce in Europe (Svarer, 2004, Liefbroer & Dourleijn, 2006) and USA (Phillips & Sweeney 2005, Teachman, 2002, Kamp, Dush, Cohan, & Amato 2003).

Sociocultural Orientation and Perceived Utility of Base Rates in Self and Social Judgments of Cyber Risk
Authors: Balcetis Emily
Published: August 2022

Despite ground-breaking technological advances, scientists still have difficulty patching one of the most threatening bugs in the cyber world: human error. Individuals constitute a unique vulnerability in cybersecurity because they systematically make errors when perceiving their own risk. Specifically, individuals underestimate their own susceptibility to cyber-attacks. Among the most common ways companies seek to improve security is presenting clients and employees with base rate information on the prevalence of cyber threats and the likelihood of the general population to succumb to them. This strategy is intended to increase the accuracy with which clients and employees assess their threat levels. However, outcomes typically fall short of this goal. We review the differential use of base rate information as a cognitive and motivational bias that contributes to forecasting errors and accuracy in self and social risk assessment. We also examine two dimensions of sociocultural orientation: individualism-collectivism and tightness-looseness-and their potential influence on the use of base rate information. We discuss implications for interventions that could mitigate the threat of cyber-attacks

Climate change will alter the photochemistry of crops, especially the C3 plants. Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L.) being an annual, photo-insensitive C3 legume is benefitted by altered climate. Any changes in the nutritional quality of host will certainly affect its herbivore. In this view, study was conducted on crop-pest interaction i.e., to know the impact of climate change on the growth and development of cowpea alone and in presence of associated sucking pest aphid, Aphis craccivora (Koch) during kharif 2019-20. The crop was raised in Open Top Chambers previously set with different climatic treatments. Observations on change in plant growth and phytochemistry along with its effect on herbivore aphid was studied. The results revealed that elevated CO2 and temperature influenced the crop positively in terms of growth and also have registered higher concentrations of leaf pigments, carbon and ‘C’ based metabolites. In contrast, lower concentrations of flavonoids, ‘N’ based compounds were recorded which ultimately altered the C: N ratio in plant system. The obtruded phytochemistry of cowpea under elevated treatments resulted in decreased development (12.73 ±0.07 days) and survival fitness of aphids, wherein increased fecundity (34.56 ±0.18days) and population density (73.43/ top three leaves) was noticed when compared to ambient treatments.

Published: August 2022

Abstract
To satisfy the needs of a growing global population, it is vital to develop viable replacement crops. Moringa is a tropical and subtropical plant that grows in multiple regions in the world. The Moringaceae family includes the genus M. peregrina, it has been discovered to have a variety of medical purposes; therefore M. peregrina must be grown in a variety of locations around Egypt. The purpose of this study is to determine the RNA sequences of tow genes and their phylogenetic relationships of 2780 sequence alignments collected from NCBI as well as M. peregrina from 255 genera across the novel gene cyt C, and 1955 sequence alignments as well as M. peregrina from 177 genera accessions numbers in NCBI (MZ005963 and MZ005966, respectively). Furthermore, cyt C (879 bp) whilst, cyt b6f complex (468bp). The present study included the investigation of allele frequency, partial haploid, haploid SNPs, SNPs transitions, and Transversions M. peregrina. The phylogenetic analysis was utilized to evaluate M. peregrina genetic variation and association with other plant species, according to our findings. Using sequence alignment from NCBI as well as Moringa, we were able to identify multiple cytochrome genes according to sequence alignment. The sequence alignment of the cytochrome C and cytochrome b6f complex genes reveals a high level of genetic variety and diversity among Moringa and other species of plants.
Duodenal perforations in the era of PPI; Is Lower Socioeconomic Status risk factor for peptic ulcer perforation? A Case Series.
Authors: HOMBAL PRASHANT , GUDADAPPANAVAR ANUPAMA
Published: August 2022

Peptic ulcer perforation is one of the most prevalent surgical emergencies worldwide, with mortality rates of up to 30%. The knowledge base for clinical decision making is limited due to a scarcity of high-quality studies on the disease, but there are a few published randomized trials. Despite the fact that Helicobacter pylori infection of the stomach and the use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medicines are thought to be common causes, there are age, gender, perforation site, and underlying causes that differ by demographics. The mortality rates in different countries also differ. This case series includes five perforated peptic ulcers that were operated on and data collected during a four-month period between September and December 2021. There were no significant changes in other less frequent characteristics that could influence ulcer development in this cohort, including as dietary habits, alcohol usage, occupation, or any drugs they could be taking. However, among those with chronic H. pylori infection, the prevalence of low socioeconomic status, lack of vocational training or education, semiskilled and unskilled occupations, and high work-related energy expenditure may explain the previously reported link between low socioeconomic status, H. pylori infection, and perforated peptic ulcers.
MORPHOMETRIC STUDY OF ANTERIOR COMMUNICATING ARTERY IN HUMAN BRAINS IN UTTAR PRADESH : A CADAVERIC STUDY
Authors: Jain Ishi , Kaushik Ram , Dawani Pooja , Vishnoi Anshul , Agarwal Varun
Published: August 2022

Background:
This study is important for radiologists and neurosurgeons as the anterior communicating artery is an important artery of blood supply of the brain and is also a part of the circle of Willis. It connects two anterior cerebral arteries across the commencement of longitudinal fissure. Different morphometric parameters like the direction of origin, intracranial course, diameter of the artery and number of arteries are studied in this study.
Materials and Methods:
A retrospective study was conducted over more than 2 years in the anatomy department, Subharti Medical College, Swami Vivekanand Subharti University, Meerut, Uttar Pradesh. A study was conducted on 50 human cadaveric brains, which were removed from the cadavers used for teaching purposes for undergraduate and postgraduate students. Dissection followed by measurement and pictorial documentation of the anterior communicating artery was done in all 50 specimens.
Results:
Of 50 cadaveric adult brains, 04% show an absent anterior communicating artery. 60% have an oblique course, and 36% have a horizontal course. 2.78 mm was the average length observed, and 1.08 mm was the average diameter of the artery. No extra pair of arteries was seen in any of the specimens.
Conclusion:
From this study, we can conclude that morphometrics of the anterior communicating artery is not rare. The artery's oblique and horizontal course was observed in many specimens along. In a few cadaveric brains, the anterior communicating artery was absent. This morphometrics of the anterior communicating artery is significant for neurosurgeons and radiologists.
The European Union’s Proposal for the Modernization of the Energy Charter Treaty
Authors: Vicente Marta
Published: August 2022

After the European Court of Justice seminal decision in Achmea, where consent to investor-State arbitration enshrined in intra-EU bilateral investment treaties was found to be incompatible with the autonomy of the European Union (EU) legal order, the European Commission has presented a draft proposal for the modernization of the Energy Charter Treaty (ECT).

The proposal relies markedly on the new investment agreements concluded between the European Union and third states, mainly CETA and the agreements with Singapore and Vietnam. It puts forward some key amendments on substantive provisions, by creating regulatory space for sustainable development and transition to clean energy.

As regards the fair and equitable standard, the proposal adds that the ‘the tribunal may take into account whether a Contracting party made a specific representation to an investor to induce a covered investment, that created a legitimate expectation, upon which the investor relied in to make or maintain the covered investment’. This article focuses on the concept of ‘specific representation’, by asking whether it (still) encompasses promises made by the legislator, in order to access the impact that said provision might have on previous ECT arbitration case law concerning renewable energy and climate change.

Can We Trust the Courts in Labour Law? Stranded Between Frivolity and Despair
Authors: Bogg Alan
Published: August 2022

Historically, the ruling theory of British labour law, collective laissez-faire, was rooted in distrust of courts. Over the last forty years, there have been profound and enduring constitutional changes. Successive governments have pursued deregulatory agendas through legislation, and workers and organized labour have turned increasingly to courts to vindicate their fundamental rights. In light of these changes, this article re-assesses the case against courts in British labour law. It identifies a vital yet subsidiary role for courts in labour law. This should lead scholars to reappraise the marginalization of doctrinal legal scholarship, lest the legal academy become stranded between frivolity and despair.
