Malware Detection Method Based on File and Registry Operations Using Machine Learning
Authors: Aslan Ömer , Akin Erdal
Published: August 2022

Malware (Malicious Software) is any software which performs malicious activities on computer-based systems without the user's consent. The number, severity, and complexity of malware have been increasing recently. The detection of malware becomes challenging because new malware variants are using obfuscation techniques to hide themselves from the malware detection systems. In this paper, a new behavioral-based malware detection method is proposed based on file-registry operations. When malware features are generated, only the operations which are performed on specific file and registry locations are considered. The file-registry operations divided into five groups: autostart file locations, temporary file locations, specific system file locations, autostart registry locations, and DLLs related registry locations. Based on the file-registry operations and where they performed, the malware features are generated. These features are seen in malware samples with high frequencies, while rarely seen in benign samples. The proposed method is tested on malware and benign samples in a virtual environment, and a dataset is created. Well-known machine learning algorithms including C4.5 (J48), RF (Random Forest), SLR (Simple Logistic Regression), AdaBoost (Adaptive Boosting), SMO (Sequential Minimal Optimization), and KNN (K-Nearest Neighbors) are used for classification. In the best case, we obtained 98.8% true positive rate, 0% false positive rate, 100% precision and 99.05% accuracy which is quite high when compared with leading methods in the literature.
Effects of neighborhood-based collaborative filtering parameters on their blockbuster bias performances
Authors: Yalçın Emre
Published: August 2022

Collaborative filtering algorithms are efficient tools for providing recommendations with reasonable accuracy performances to individuals. However, the previous research has realized that these algorithms are undesirably biased towards blockbuster items. i.e., both popular and highly-liked items, in their recommendations, resulting in recommendation lists dominated by such blockbuster items. As one most prominent types of collaborative filtering approaches, neighborhood-based algorithms aim to produce recommendations based on neighborhoods constructed based on similarities between users or items. Therefore, the utilized similarity function and the size of the neighborhoods are critical parameters on their recommendation performances. This study considers three well-known similarity functions, i.e., Pearson, Cosine, and Mean Squared Difference, and varying neighborhood sizes and observes how they affect the algorithms’ blockbuster bias and accuracy performances. The extensive experiments conducted on two benchmark data collections conclude that as the size of neighborhoods decreases, these algorithms generally become more vulnerable to blockbuster bias while their accuracy increases. The experimental works also show that using the Cosine metric is superior to other similarity functions in producing recommendations where blockbuster bias is treated more; however, it leads to having unqualified recommendations in terms of predictive accuracy as they are usually conflicting goals.

IMPLICANCIAS CONSTITUCIONALES DE LA PERCEPCIÓN SIMULTÁNEA DE REMUNERACIÓN Y PENSIÓN EN LAS FUERZAS ARMADAS Y POLICÍA NACIONAL DEL PERÚ
Authors: Segovia Murillo Sócrates
Published: August 2022

El presente análisis tiene como pretensión establecer y determinar el grado de coherencia y unidad entre el marco normativo y constitucional referente a la doble percepción simultánea de remuneración y pensión en las Fuerzas Armadas y Policía Nacional del Perú. El marco normativo aplicable al caso nos permitirá proceder al análisis de los alcances constitucionales de la prohibición de la doble percepción de remuneración y pensión en el aparato público y, por consiguiente, tratar la connatural incidencia de tal prohibición en la suspensión de la pensión o remuneración en el caso de los pensionistas de la Fuerzas Armadas y Policiales (en adelante, FF. AA.). Es así que, preliminarmente los artículos 6 y 43 del Decreto Ley N° 19846, Ley que unifica el Régimen de pensiones del personal militar y policial de la Fuerza Armada y Fuerzas Policiales, por servicios al Estado proscriben, en caso de los miembros de las FF. AA., la percepción simultánea de dos tipos de ingresos (sean a título de pensión, remuneración o de pensión y remuneración) cuando estos provengan del Estado. Si bien se encuentra legalmente prohibido para los miembros de las FF. AA. percibir simultáneamente una pensión y una remuneración cuando ambos ingresos provengan del Estado, no obstante, esa prohibición no se aplica para el caso de las FF. AA., a partir de la dación de Ley 30026 (23.05.2013) modificado por Ley 30539 (08.02.2017) si el pensionista es contratado por el Estado en áreas de seguridad ciudadana o seguridad nacional. Además, el art. 77 del D.S. N° 009-DE-CCFA, dispone que la suspensión de pensión militar es temporal y se aplica mientras subsista la causal que lo originó, sin derecho a reintegro. Por tanto, no sería amparable la pretensión de restitución de pensión mientras esté percibiendo remuneración del Estado, salvo que a partir de la vigencia de la Ley 30026 esté prestando servicios remunerados en áreas de seguridad ciudadana o seguridad nacional. Por último, se presentará el análisis de la presunta configuración a la vulneración de los principios de igualdad e interdicción de la arbitrariedad, ante una posible concesión legal de habilitación a la doble percepción en desmedro del mandato constitucional imperante.

El transductor de señal Janus-Kinasa y la vía de activación de la transcripción conocida como JAK/STAT es una ruta de señalización principal para la transducción de información en muchas citocinas inflamatorias implicadas durante la sepsis. Se ha demostrado que la vía JAK/STAT está fuertemente relacionada con el fallo multiorgánico, además que muchas citocinas pueden ejercer sus efectos biológicos a través de esta ruta. En los últimos años, se ha logrado un progreso significativo en la comprensión de las funciones de este complejo, sin embargo, su rol en la sepsis como objetivo terapéutico permanece en experimentación.

En esta revisión se describen las funciones específicas de la vía JAK/STAT, su rol en la sepsis y presentamos un enfoque traslacional respecto a la perspectiva terapéutica para inhibir esta ruta de señalización durante la sepsis y su interacción con enfermedades inflamatorias como la COVID-19.

This review is expected to be able to carry out a test with the ultimate goal of deciding on the variables that affect Indonesia's GDP. This type of review uses a quantitative methodology. The factors in this review are the value of Indonesia's external debt and the value of Indonesia's GDP as the dependent factor and the value of Indonesia's GDP as the dependent factor. This information is taken as selected information (time series) from BI and the Central Statistics Agency for the period 2006-2020. This information checking technique uses multiple linear regression examination. The impact of this review proves that the relationship between Indonesia's external debt and the value of Indonesian exports has a very large impact together. The fractional test (t test) proves that the value of Indonesia's external debt basically has an impact on the value of Indonesia's economic growth. The export value factor does not affect the value of gross domestic product in Indonesia.

Published: August 2022

Background: The ovary is a well-organized mixture of germ and somatic cells suspended laterally from the uterus by the
utero-ovarian ligament. Ovulation on one or both ovaries can result in the formation of an ovarian cyst, which is a uid-
lled sac. The majority of benign ovarian lesions are cystic and occur in women of reproductive age, whereas malignant tumours are more
common in elderly postmenopausal women. Ovarian cancer accounts for almost 23% of all gynaecological tumour with a high fatality rate and
poor prognosis. Hence, proper management depends on the histo - morphological division of non- neoplastic, benign and malignant lesions. This
study was done to differentiate the lesion histo-morphologically and to know the commonest lesion in each age group. A hospitalMethodology:
based- retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted in a tertiary care hospital, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, from January 2018-January 2020
including 53 patients satisfying the inclusion criteria i.e clinically or radiologically diagnosed as ovarian cysts, with histopathological
conrmation were included in the study”. Data collected was entered and analyzed in SPSS software version 24. The mean age andResults:
standard deviation among 53 study participants was found to be 38.66 ± 12.49, around 28 (52.8%) participants belong to > 20 to 40 years.The
mean BMI and standard deviation of the study participants was found to be 30.21 + 3.84. Out of various surgeries undergone by the study
participants, 26 (49%) patients had undergone laparotomy and proceed, 25 (47.2%) of them had undergone laparoscopic cystectomy and 2
(3.8%) had TAH with BSO. On histopathological examination, 39.6% turned out to be serous cystadenoma, 13.2% granulosa cell tumors and
11.3 % simple ovarian cyst. Majority (46.4%) of the total serous cystadenoma was turned out to be in the age group of 20 to 40 years Conclusion:
Ovarian cysts are widely seen in gynaecological practise, and pathologists see them as well. serous cystadenoma was the most common type of
ovarian cyst, followed by granulose cell tumours.

'TAILA DĀHA'- THERAPEUTIC CAUTERIZATION WITH HOT OIL: A PROMISING METHOD TO STIMULATE GRANULATION TISSUE IN PILONIDAL SINUS - A CASE STUDY
Authors: S Shilpa , C R Parvathy , P N Rajeshwari , Tripathy Rabinarayan
Published: August 2022

Sacrococcygeal pilonidal sinus (Nādīvrana) is a common disorder among young adults. Observed mostly in people aged
15-30 years (Pilonidal Cyst and Sinus: Background, Pathophysiology, Epidemiology, n.d.). An epithelial track (the
sinus), which is often hair-lled and located in the skin of the natal cleft just beyond the anus, is what distinguishes this condition. According to
Acharya Susrutha, hair might contribute to the development of sinuses (Susrutha, 2010d). The various methods of management include
Ksārasūtra (herbal seton) ligation (Agnivesa et al., 2010) (Susrutha, 2010d) and Tailadāha (cauterization with hot oil) (Susrutha, 2010b). It has
been discovered that combining Kārasūtra with Tailadāha's supplementary impact is a novel strategy that accelerates the healing process.
Therefore, an effort was made to develop a straightforward and efcient treatment that ultimately enhances quality of life. This case report
portrays the management of pilonidal sinus in a 15-year-old female patient through Ayurveda. Initially, Kārasūtra ligation was done. As the sinus
or tract has cut and near to the surface, excision of the tract and Tailadāha was done with Yastimadhu taila. The study's conclusion was the return
of normal anatomical structure and painless wound healing using a minimally invasive and inexpensive procedure.

HEMATOLOGIC MANIFESTATIONS OF RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS IN A TERTIARY CARE HOSPITAL
Authors: Maheshwari Sakshi , Jadhav Nilesh , Agrawal Sumedh , Gupta Prashant
Published: August 2022

Hematological manifestations of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are very common. Blood dyscrasias and other hematological
abnormalities are sometimes the rst sign of rheumatic disease. In addition, novel anti-rheumatic biological agents may
cause cytopenias. It is crucial that hematologists be aware of these presentations so that they are diagnosed and treated in a timely manner. A
logical approach using easily available tests should allow straightforward decisions about diagnosis and therapy to be made, even in patients with
some of the rarer hematological manifestations. An observational study was done in RA patients in a tertiary care hospital to study the prevalence
and the type of hematologic manifestations from a pathologist's perspective. It was observed that anemia is the most common hematologic
nding seen in RA, iron deciency being the commonest cause of anemia, however hemolytic anemia was not seen. Leucocytosis was more
common with predominant neutrophilia. Elevated platelet count, bicytopenia and pancytopenia were observed in RA along with raised ESR.
Coagulation parameters were however within normal range. Bone marrow ndings (where studied) included tuberculosis and plasma cell
neoplasm. Summary: This study was conducted to estimate the proportion of patients with hematological abnormalities as the manifestation of

Cutaneous perception identification using smartphone haptic feedback
Authors: Torres Wilson , Abbott Michael , Wang Yuqing , Stuart Hannah
Published: August 2022

The skin’s ability to sense its environment is vital to activities of daily living. Cutaneous sensory perception diagnostics allow for the early detection and symptom tracking of tactile dysfunction. However, lack of access to healthcare and the limited frequency of current screening tools can leave skin sensation impairments undiscovered or unmonitored. This work presents a smartphone application for Cutaneous Hand Assessment with a Smartphone Interface (CHASI) to establish Vibrational Perception Thresholds (VPT). CHASI’s vibrational output and force measurement abilities are also characterized. An 18-participant cross-sectional study, with both normative subjects and subjects with sensation impairment, compares the monofilament test with smartphone established VPT (SE- VPT). We find a high positive correlation between SE-VPT and monofilament scores (rs=0.83, p = 0.00014). We also investigate the sensitivity of our proposed SE-VPT method to the motions and forces applied to the touchscreen. We find that variations in force do not alter the practical significance of the monofilament correlation. These results further the smartphone as a potential diagnostic and monitoring tool for hand health.

A 49 years old male patient, with no particular pathological history, presented for two years with an exophytic, hyperkeratotic infiltrating lesion of the palm side of the left wrist with muscular atrophy of the hand and blockage of the wrist joint, with no palpable enlarged lymph nodes. A magnetic resonance imaging of the hand was performed, showing a loss of substance of the anterior side of the wrist and the hand associated with an infiltration of the subcutaneous soft tissues and muscles of the thenar eminence with Long palmar tendon sheathing. The patient was treated by surgery consisting on a wrist and forearm Amputation and Histological examination finally concluded to a verrucous carcinoma with clear resection margins. The evolution was favorable, with no recurrence after 13 months of follow-up.
Intertextuality: Allusion, Convention and Transformation in The Oresteia and Mourning Becomes Electra
Authors: Apene Dickson N.
Published: August 2022

This article aims to show the relationship between the plays of O’Neill and his European counterpart, Aeschylus. O’Neill subscribes to Greek mythology but modifies or transforms it in the American scenario. Our study of the plays has considered the way meanings are constructed by a network of cultural and social discourses which embody distinct codes, expectations and assumptions. Besides, the thematic and linguistic similarities and differences between the works of the European and that of the American author selected have enabled the researcher to have an insight into literary influences and affinities. This article has demonstrated that there is no end in the making of texts, as O’Neill has revisited classical literature to write his play, Mourning Becomes Electra. This paper argues that intertextuality must not be limited to influences as Aeschylus had no direct influence on O’Neill though O’Neill rewrites his play The Oresteia. Both writers have no biographical similarities nor do they come from the same generations. O’Neill alludes to Aeschylus’s Greek mythological form of play writing but transforms it into the American scenario, through American Realism. To analyse these plays, the critical approach used was Postmodernism since interetxtuality is the major tenet of postmodernism. The paper concludes that, although O’Neill subscribes to Greek mythology, he deviates from European playwrights of this dramatic convention. His work has aspects of American Realism, and he is equally a social critic who writes about the ills that plague his society, in order to create awareness in his countrymen.

Published: August 2022

This study is based on a deconstructive analysis of Shakespeare's Hamlet using the theoretical model presented by Jacques Derrida. He has a strong belief and faith, which helped him in this challenging theory. His courage never let him down in his description of the issues of the world, more specifically the political and ethical ones. His electric deconstructive might provide an intellect to Shakespeare’s Hamlet. Shakespeare’s Hamlet has continuously been a centerpiece for researchers. It has been deliberated from many perspectives, but this paper tries to read the overbearing components of Hamlet from a deconstructive point of view Derrida. Through deconstruction, the investigators present an unused painting of the intellect channel of the personalities. It tries to show the convention of the transcendentalism of presence and its hopeless effect which has demonstrated to be the obstructive faltering squares on the mad streams of man’s vulnerability to unused changes. In its concluding look, the ponder uncovers the tragic mental barrier of the characters in Hamlet, cleared out beyond by the ubiquitous and all-powerful signs of the metaphysics of presence.

Background: Premature rupture of membrane (PROM) is linked to significant fetal and maternal morbidity and mortalities. The maternal and fetal outcomes in PROM are very important to decrease maternal and child mortality and for better management and prevention of complications. Objective: To find out maternal & fetal outcomes of preterm premature rupture of the membranes. Methods and Material: This is a cross-sectional observational study carried out in the Department of Obstetrics & Gynaecology, 250 Beded District Hospital, Chapainawabganj, Rajshahi, Bangladesh from January 2016 to July 2016. 50 pregnant women with preterm premature rupture of the membranes. Result: The majority of patients with preterm PROM (30%) belong to the age group 31-35 years. The mean age of the patients and SD were 26.4±6.58. 60% of respondents were multipara and 40% primipara. Most of the patients had irregular antenatal checkups (56%), 24% had regular antenatal checkups, and 20% had no antenatal checkups. Twenty percent of patients developed labor pain within 15 hours of rupture of membrane, 24% within 16-30 hours, 56% within 31-45 hours, 10% within 46-60 hours, and 12% without the onset of labour pain. 37 (74%) patients with preterm PROM had a normal vaginal delivery, and 13(26%) delivered by caesarian Section. Forty-three percent of patients delivered within 24 hours of the ruptured membrane, followed by 24% of patients within 24-48 hours, and 28% of patients within more than 48 hours. Among 50 patients, 12 (24.0%) had a previous history of abortion, 24 (48%) had H/O preterm delivery due to PROM, 2 (4.0%) had H/O MR, and 6 (12.0%) had H/O D & C. Among 50 respondents with PPORM 4 (8.0%) had diabetes mellitus, (12.0%) had HTN, 15 (2.0%) had urinary tract infection and 10 (20.0%) had lower genital tract infection. In this study, the total number of the alive baby was 42, and the stillborn baby was 2. Out of 42 alive babies, 18(42.86%) were affected by the consequence of preterm PROM and the birth process. Among 48 alive babies, 6(12.50%) developed birth asphyxia, 5(10.42%) developed jaundice, 3(6.25%) developed neonatal sepsis, and 4 (8.33%) developed respiratory distress syndrome. Maternal morbidity were chorioamnionitis 4(8%) puerperal sepsis 5(10%), postpartum endometritis 2(4%), abruptio placenta 1(2%) and wound infection 2(4%). Conclusion: The incidence of preterm PROM was more in multipara. The majority of the patients were from lower- and middle-class families. This study found some factors, e.g., Coitus, the recent history of abortion, M.R., D & C, and previous history of PROM. The study was done with a small population, but it introduces us to certain risk factors that can be prevented. Proper health education, patient motivation, improved health hygiene, and adequate maternity and childcare services are needed to reduce morbidity and mortality.
