An Application based detection and classification of gastric cancer using ensembled network model
Authors: Immaculate Joy S , Kanagamalliga S , Latha R
Published: December 2024

Gastric cancer, another name for stomach cancer, is a kind of cancer that begins as a cell growth in the stomach and has a poor diagnosis. The world`s pathologist shortage offers a unique chance to implement AI support systems to cut down on labor and boost diagnostic accuracy. It is believed that genetic instability, manifesting as either chromosomal instability or microsatellite instability, is a precursor to stomach carcinogenesis in the majority of cases of stomach cancer. The new categorization of stomach cancers based on histologic features, genetics and molecular phenotypes has improved early identification, prevention and therapy by illuminating the features of each subtype. Located directly below the ribs in the upper central region of the abdomen is the stomach. This research develops a solution using deep learning algorithms to aid in the pathological diagnosis of gastric cancer over Gastric Histopathology Sub-size Image Database, a publicly available database for medical image analysis. An advanced algorithm is created by combining three different algorithms, and it is then used to diagnose cancer more accurately. The combination of these three algorithms-Multitask Net, Fusion Net, and Global Net-creates a powerful ensemble model that leverages the strengths of each approach, leading to improved gastric cancer classification performance. This hybrid approach can aid in early diagnosis and treatment planning, ultimately improving patient outcomes.

Compressed Air Energy Storage (CAES) is an effective technology for grid-scale peak shaving, while Carbon Capture Utilization and Storage (CCUS) plays a crucial role in carbon reduction. As China strives to peaking carbon emissions by 2030 and achieve carbon neutrality by 2060 faces significant challenges, especially for the hard-to-abate sectors pose significant challenges. Building on the principles of CAES and CCUS, this paper introduces a novel approach: Compressed Carbon Energy Storage (CCES), , which integrates CAES and CCUS. CCES uses salt caverns to store compressed supercritical CO2 instead of air. This study explores the feasibility of CCES in salt caverns, addressing stability, tightness, containment, site selection, and capacity potential in China. Key findings include: 1) CCES, an advanced version of CAES, offers doubles the installed capacity compared to traditional CAES by combining the benefits of both CAES and CCUS benefits. 2) CCES salt caverns in typical bedded salt formations can maintain stability and integrity for 100 years. 3) Optimal cavern depths for supercritical CO2 storage range 800-1500 m, with a minimum cavern volume of 25 × 104 m3 for a capacity of at least 300 MW. 4) CO2 storage in salt caverns offers better tightness compared to air, methane (CH4), and hydrogen (H2), with an interlayer permeability threshold of ≤ 1.0 × 10–18 m2 for adequate tightness. 5) Potential CCES sites in China have been identified, with preliminary estimates suggesting a total capacity of 46.62-69.93 GW and theoretical capacity of up to 280 million tons of CO2 for China’s hard-to-abate sectors.

Authors: Tarbuk Anita
Published: December 2024

Wastewater from the textile industry is a complex mixture of many environmentally harmful substances such as unbound dyes and auxiliaries, pesticides, heavy metals and large quantities of salts associated with the dyes or the dyeing process. To reduce the wastewater load, action can be taken in two directions - firstly, by changing the charge of the cotton fibers to remove salts from the bath and increase the dye yield, and secondly, by producing filters for wastewater treatment. In the interest of sustainability, this article collects the possibilities of using cationized cotton during the mercerization process for this purpose. The results of zeta potential and coloristic parameters confirmed that the cationizated bleached and recycled cotton waste during the mercerization can be used in dyeing and printing without electrolyte, as well as filter for first step in water treatment.

Authors: Alharbi Ahmad , Nooraldeen Noon , Mobarki Sarah , Alsury Leena , Alhazmi Abdulaziz H. , Alqassmi Sameer
Published: December 2024

Background: The covid-19 pandemic has created significant challenges for healthcare systems worldwide, especially in intensive care units (ICU), which face unprecedented hardship. Despite the primary focus on viral infection, the precise influence of bacterial superinfections on the outcome of severe covid-19 cases, particularly in different hospital settings, remains uncertain.
Objective: to investigate the prevalence, characteristics, and outcomes of bacterial superinfections in covid-19 patients hospitalized in the ICU in Saudi Arabia during the second wave of the pandemic.
Methods: This study was conducted at King Abdullah Hospital in Bisha, Saudi Arabia, and involved retrospective observational analysis. This study examined 121 adult patients admitted to the ICU due to severe covid-19 between April and July 2021. Information regarding demographics, clinical characteristics, radiological findings, and microbiological data was also collected. This study examined the relationship between superinfections and mortality through rigorous statistical analyses, including chi-square testing and multivariable logistic regression.
Results: Most participants in the study were men (57.9%) and Saudi citizens (95.0%), with an average age of 63 ± 17 years. The incidence of superinfections among the patients was 43.8%, significantly higher than that reported in previous studies. Microbiological examinations revealed the presence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) and extensively drug-resistant (XDR) organisms, particularly in respiratory samples. The most common isolates were KLEPNE-XDR (10.7%) and ACIBAU-XDR (8.3%). A statistically significant correlation was observed between superinfection and mortality (p=0.042). Patients with superinfections experienced a significantly higher mortality rate of 55.3% in comparison to those without superinfections, who had a mortality rate of 44.7%. Multivariable logistic regression identified age (aOR 1.040, 95% CI: 1.012-1.068, p=0.004) and non-Saudi nationality (aOR 12.320, 95% CI: 1.242-122.177, p=0.032) as significant predictors of mortality. Interestingly, a high percentage of the patients (89.3 %) were treated with carbapenems.
Conclusion: Our research revealed a notable prevalence of bacterial superinfections, including highly resistant strains, among severely ill covid-19 patients in the ICU. The significant link between superinfections and mortality underscores the pressing need for enhanced diagnostic tools, targeted antimicrobial therapies, and improved stewardship protocols in the ICU setting. The findings of this study have important implications for clinical care and public health policy in the ongoing battle against covid-19 and its consequences.

Published: December 2024

This study applied the hierarchical clustering algorithm to categorize bike-sharing system stations operating in İzmir, Türkiye, based on their temporal usage patterns. By distinguishing between transportation- and leisure-oriented trips, the research provides insights into the operational dynamics of the system. The findings highlighted spatial and temporal distinctions, with Konak İskele Station consistently emerging as a separate cluster for transportation-oriented trips, indicating its crucial role due to its central location and proximity to public transportation hubs. In the case of leisure-oriented trips, the analysis revealed three clusters on weekdays, with Konak İskele Station maintaining its prominence, particularly in the afternoon and late evening hours. However, weekend trips were characterized by the identification of two main clusters. These results emphasize the importance of tailored management strategies for bike-sharing systems, suggesting that transportation-oriented trips may benefit from more strategic station placements and enhanced connectivity to public transit.

Published: December 2024

Combining ability analysis for yield and yield components in some important rice germplasm through line x tester analysis of 24 intervarietal crosses developed by crossing 4 testers with 6 lines. The 24 crosses were grown in a randomized block design with three replications and were evaluated for grain yield per plant and other yield components. The experiments were conducted at the Department of Plant breeding and genetics, Faculty of Agriculture, Annamalai University. Analysis of variance for line x tester revealed highly significant differences between the characters studied. The mean squares ratio of GCA and SCA were below one for all the characters studied. This might be due to the effect of non-additive gene action. The estimates of gca performance indicated that the lines viz., ADT - 37, ADT - 45, ADT - 43 and the testers viz., Kuzhi Adichan, Kalurundai Samba and Kalanmak are good general combiners for grain yield per plant. The best sca performance were observed in the crosses, ADT - 45 x Kalurundai Samba and ADT - 37 x Kalurundai Samba.

The present investigation entitled assessment of growth and bulb attributing characters influenced by different doses of EMS in tuberose was conducted at Horticulture Research Farm, Department of Horticulture, Institute of Agricultural Sciences, Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi during 2022- 2023.The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design with three replications. Bulbs of twenty tuberose varieties were treated with 600 ppm and 1200 ppm of EMS concentration along with untreated bulbs (control). The data on growth parameters indicated that early sprouting was found in treatment of EMS @ 600 ppm than control and higher concentration of chemical mutagen. Plant height and number of leaves/plants were decreased with the higher concentration of EMS and maximum plant height and number of leaves were recorded in control. In general, there was significant rise in weight of bulb and bulbils in all varieties treated with higher dose of EMS as compared to untreated bulbs (control). The chemical mutagen EMS @ 600 ppm was found effective for weight of bulbils/hill and resulted in maximum number of bulbils. The number of bulbils/hill and diameter of bulb were adversely affected due to higher concentration. Maximum number of bulbils/hill and diameter of bulb were recorded with untreated bulbs (control). However, weight of bulb/hill was positively influenced by higher dose of EMS. Varieties Arka Nirantara, Prajwal and Bidhan Snigdha were resulted in positively growth in all yield attributes whereas, among the varieties Vaibhav found more sensitive to EMS treatment and resulted in very poor performance in all growth and bulb attributes.

Published: December 2024

This study explores the challenges faced by farmers in the cauvery delta zone of Tamil Nadu, an area highly vulnerable to drought and flooding. The traditional reliance on mono-cropping, especially paddy, has made farmers more susceptible to risks posed by uncertain water availability and climate variability. The study aims to develop a risk-optimized, crop-diversified alternative cropping system using the Minimization of Total Absolute Deviation (MOTAD) model. Through a stratified random sampling, 600 farmers were selected across five agronomically and socio-economically homogeneous village clusters, to capture the diversity of cropping patterns and irrigation sources. The results revealed that, the degree of farm-level crop diversification was much low in the study area. The MOTAD model integrates risk considerations into farm planning by balancing profit maximization and risk minimization. The findings suggest alternative cropping systems, which include combinations of Paddy, Banana, Coconut-Pepper and low-water-intensive crops such as Brinjal, Bhendi, Maize, Cotton, Marigold and Tuberose. The findings emphasize the need for awareness among farmers about crop diversification as a risk mitigation strategy and suggest that agricultural extension agencies should promote the adoption of these diversified cropping systems. By evolving cluster-specific cropping plans, the study proposes a sustainable approach to enhance the resilience of farming in the Cauvery delta zone.

Published: December 2024

Contexte. Le télésoin se développe de plus en plus dans la pratique des ergothérapeutes à l’international. Il est introduit en France depuis 2019 pour les auxiliaires médicaux, mais l’absence de textes réglementaires interdisait jusque-là son usage. Lors de la crise sanitaire liée au Covid-19, en avril 2020, les ergothérapeutes ont pu y avoir recours de façon dérogatoire. Depuis juin 2021, les décrets d’application le font entrer dans le droit commun.
Objectif. Cette étude vise à présenter les données actuelles sur le télésoin pratiqué par les ergothérapeutes dans différents pays pour contribuer à son développement en France et à la définition de règles de bonnes pratiques.
Méthode. Elle repose sur un recensement des publications scientifiques et de textes de référence sur le sujet couvrant une période de quinze ans (2007-2021) en utilisant plusieurs bases de données. Les études n’incluant pas les services d’ergothérapeutes ont été exclues. Toutes les catégories de pathologie, d’âge, d’interventions ou d’outils technologiques ont été retenues.
Résultats. 31 études scientifiques ont permis de réunir des éléments de données probantes, de freins identifiés et de perspectives pour d’autres recherches.
Discussion. Les données issues des études internationales confirment la faisabilité du télésoin en ergothérapie pour de nombreuses situations cliniques et toutes sortes d’interventions. Son usage doit s’appuyer sur une démarche guidée par la réflexion clinique et les considérations éthiques habituelles.
Conclusion. Pour soutenir le développement du télésoin, des limites restent à dépasser, des études plus approfondies sont à mettre en œuvre et la formation des professionnels est à envisager.
