Breast cancer is one of the deadliest diseases, claiming approximately 627,000 lives worldwide in 2018–2019. Therefore, early detection of breast cancer through automation in the prediction of the disease will help the medical industry to cure this disease at an early stage and thereby reduce the risk of death drastically. In the present study, the Breast Cancer Wisconsin (Diagnostic) Data Set has been taken from the University of California Irvine (UCI) Machine Learning Repository. The dataset (n=699) contained a total of 30 predictor parameters and one dependent parameter. The dependent variable referred to the type of cancer tissue, i.e., benign or malignant. To predict the type of cancer tissue present in the patient, prediction models were built using 1) Logistic Regression (LR), 2) Decision Tree Classifier (DTC), 3) Random Forest Classifier (RFC), 4) K Nearest Neighbor (KNN), 5) Support Vector Machine (SVM), and 6) Ada Boost Classifier (ABC). To improve the accuracy of the model, a correlation matrix was used and the top 8 features were selected. To improve the accuracy even further, the Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique (SMOTE) was used to eliminate the problem of class imbalance, and then accuracy was compared before and after SMOTE. The Precision, Recall, and F1 scores are the performance metrics that have been taken into consideration for selecting the best model for the analysis. The results of the study reveal that the KNN algorithm gives the highest accuracy of 95.321% after the SMOTE technique is applied to each of the six algorithms. It has been revealed that while SMOTE aids in the accuracy of some algorithms, it affects the performance of others. This research may be turned into realistic tools that can be utilized in the medical field to more accurately predict the stage of disease for better treatment management.

Metal matrix composites are supplanting conventional materials due to their prevalent properties like high strength of weight ratio, high specific stiffness, high fracture toughness, high thermal stability and wear resistance etc. In this investigation, Al-TiC composites consist of TiC particles of an average size 4μm whose wt% of reinforcement varied from 2 to 10 wt% in steps of 2 wt%, composites have been prepared using the stir casting technique. Dry-sliding wear experiments have been performed on pin-on-disc apparatus according to Taguchi’s L25 in the design of experiments. The parameters considered are wt% of TiC, rotational speed (Nr), load (P) and sliding velocity (Vs). Optimum combinations of parameters have been identified based on grey relational grade (GRG) to solve the wear response of AA7068/TiC MMCs. Also, analysis of variance (ANOVA) is applied to recognize the main factors affecting the wear response. Confirmation experiments with optimum conditions show that the results were nearer to the anticipated outcomes.

Abstract: To ensure the reliability and safety of bridges, one of the main important parameter in design and health assessment is normalized displacement in critical loading condition. It is important to ensure accuracy of determination of normalized displ acement in different condition. The aim of this study is to explore the dynamic response of bridge subjected to two vehicles travelling in reverse direction. Moving masses (vehicles) are assumed to start at same time with same speed, then time is delayed f or one of the moving mass and then speed of both moving masses is changed. Normalized mid span response is lesser than that for single moving mass model and highest response for two ways traffic occurs for velocity ratio 0.6. The change of dynamic behavior is remarkable with change in highest normalized mid span response for change in traffic conditions like two way traffic, change in velocity and time of start of vehicles.

This leads to farmers converted portion of their farmland to Eucalyptus camaldulensis woodlots. The aim of this study was to assess the impact of E. camaldulensis woodlot on the soil properties and teff (Erogrsticteff) yields on an adjacent cropland. A plot of 2m x 1.5m area was laid down inside plantation (assumed zero m), at one, three, six, nine and20 m distances away from the E. camaldulensis woodlot in to the adjacent cropland. This was replicated on three farmlands. Teff was grown on the plots and the yield, height, and biomass of teff were measured and thirty six soil samples were collected from experimental field. The soil bulk density (p<0.01), soil moisture (p<0.001), SOC (p < 0.05), avail P (p < 0.01) and avail K (p < 0.01) were significantly varied with distance. The yield and height of teff were significantly (p< 0.01) affected by distance from the woodlot. Moreover, mean soil total N at three meter, avail P from one meter to six meter, avail K after nine meter, yield and biomass of teff up to six meter were reduced. The yield reduction of teff could be attributed to the soil moisture and soil nutrient competition between the Eucalyptus woodlot and teff. In this study we had concluded that E.

Published: February 2022

Kunun gyada is cereal-based Nigerian porridge produce from cereal flour in combination with groundnut milk. There is the growing popularity of local beverage drinks such as the kunun-gyada, kunun-Zaki, kunun-tsamiya in Nigeria, and thus, this posses great research challenges that require processing improvement from the traditional method of preparation, value addition, and extension of storage life of the products. Research has shown that the product can easily go bad when stored unrefrigerated and even when refrigerated, the product can only be kept for a maximum of four days (Gaffa et al., 2002). Sensory evaluation indicated that the kunun gyada powder was slightly oily to touch. The product was rated low for overall acceptability base on sensory evaluation by consumers under a 5-point hedonic scale. The powder was observed to be oily which might have hurt the panelist overall assessment of the product. Due to this, the kunun gyada powder was modified to contain 5 % maltodextrin and was investigated for consumer acceptability and storage stability. The product was stable during storage, the colour of the maltodextrin-added product was significantly lighter (L* was 76.31%). The viscosity of the product also increased from 15.75 to 17.12 mPa.s. The addition of maltodextrin improved the product's overall acceptability significantly from 2.72 to 3.89 based on a five-point Hedonic scale.

To establish effective breeding techniques for the creation of nutritionally enhanced maize cultivars, reasonable information of the extent of genetic diversity, heritability, genetic advance, correlation analyses, and interrelationships of yield and yield related variables is essential. As a result, the goal of this study was to determine the nature and magnitude of genetic variability, heritability, Correlation Analysis, genetic advance, and principal Component analysis of grain yield and yield-related traits in quality protein maize inbred lines adapted to Ethiopia's mid-altitude agroecology. During 2019/2020, the experiment was done on 36 inbred lines, including four checks at Bako and Jimma. The genotypes were tested three times in an alpha lattice arrangement. For all parameters except days to maturity, the mean square due to genotypes was extremely significant, according to the analysis of variance. The level of phenotypic and genotypic variation among all eleven characteristics showed that the environment influenced the expression of features in some way. Grain yield, kernels per ear, ear diameter, and thousand kernels weight all showed a moderately greater heritability. The estimated genetic progress as a percent of mean for grain production, kernels per row, and ear per plant was extremely high, indicating the control of additive gene of action and a better hope for selection of these traits. Grain yield has a high heritability mixed with a high genetic advance, indicating that additive gene action is dominant in controlling the variable. Days to maturity, plant and ear height, ear diameter, ear per plant, and thousand kernel weights all exhibited extremely significant positive associations with grain yield. The eigenvalue of the first main component was 6.16, and it accounted for 4.60 of the total variances. The PC7 had large ear weights per plant, which most likely reflected yield. Finally, in future quality protein maize breeding efforts, special ......

Objective: Prophylaxis is the gold standard in patients with severe hemophilia. In recent years, personalisation of prophylaxis treatment according to pharmacokinetic properties has been used in treatment. In this study, personalisation treatment experience based on the pharmacokinetic dosing tool my-PKfit results in pediatric and adult patients from three centers is shared.
Material and Methods: myPKfit (www1.mypkfit.com) was used to evaluate pharmacokinetic parameters in hemophilia A patients receiving recombinant Factor VIII (Takeda Advate ®) prophylaxis. 75 samples in 34 patients (3 samples in 7 patients, 2 samples in 27 patients) were analysed for pharmacokinetic evaluation. Age, weight and baseline FVIII level of the patients were recorded. Pharmacokinetic curves were obtained after entering sampling times, factor dose and sample results. The annual bleeding rate (ABR) of the patients were evaluated before and after the changes made after the pharmacokinetic evaluation.
Results: The median age of 34 patients with severe hemophilia A without inhibitors was 12.3±8.7 (1.5-37) years, and the mean weight was 40.0±22.0 (10-83) kg. All patients had a baseline FVIII level of less than or equal to 2 IU/dl. All patients were receiving primary or secondary/tertiary prophylaxis. The mean half-life of the factors of the patients was 9.6±1.4 (7.0-13.4) hours, and the mean time reached below 1 IU/dl was 48.9±11.2 (16.0-77.0) hours. Prophylactic factor therapy was changed in 17 patients after myPKfit, dose increased in 9 patients, the frequency increased in 6 patients, and both dose and frequency increased in 2 patients. With a mean follow-up period of 23.7 +16 (2-49) months, in 17 patients whose prophylaxis regimen was changed after the PK evaluation by myPkyfit, ABR was found to be significantly lower in the post-change period, compared to the last one year before the change of regimen (2.94 + 2.19 and 0.58 + 1.00 respectively) P: 0.028.
Discussion: A pharmacokinetic study by the Bayesian method is an increasingly used method for personalised prophylaxis regimen. We believe that myPKfit is beneficial in providing effective and appropriate prophylaxis.

Indonesia mengadakan pesta demokrasi yaitu pemilihan umum di tahun 2019. Kemajemukan partai telah mewakili banyaknya kepentingan rakyat Indonesia yang dikenal terdiri dari banyak suku, agama, dan ras. Sehingga, kepentingan rakyat di sini adalah hal utama untuk diperhatikan dalam pemilu 2019. Permasalahan yang biasa muncul ketika ada momentum kampanye adalah banyaknya beredar isu hoaks (palsu) yang digunakan untuk memanipulasi berita demi kampanye 2019. Pemutarbalikan isu ini sangat berbahaya tertutama bagi siswa SMA yang masih awam terhadap pengetahuan politik. Kegiatan Pengabdian Kepada Masyarakat diharapkan berkontribusi untuk membuka pengetahuan politik sejak dini di kalangan siswa SMA. Kata kunci: Siswa Sekolah Menengah Atas, Pemilu, Hoaks, Tahun Politik, 2019.
