One of the main causes of death is breast cancer or BC. With this survey paper, people can understand what is breast cancer, how it causes death, and what treatments can be used to diagnose breast cancer. Accurate categorization of breast cancer data is essential for cancer diagnosis, and the ability to distinguish benign from malignant tumors can save patients unnecessary medical interventions. The optimal course of action can also be determined using the classification of breast cancer. One well-known area of medical research is the classification of patient populations into benign and malignant conditions. Because machine learning can extract significant characteristics from a collection of medical data, it is widely used in the prediction of breast cancer. Machine learning methods in medical diagnostics have drawn increased interest lately. These technologies, along with the many deep learning approaches that have surfaced recently, allow information based solely on gene expression to be used to inform healthcare decisions, offering insight into sound and suitable healthcare decisions. Tissue texture and breast density are commonly used by doctors and automated technologies as indicators of sickness in diagnostic imaging. Customized screening and preventive decisions can be guided by the exact identification of cancer risk. So, by analyzing this paper people can understand how breast cancer can be detected using machine learning and deep learning techniques and what these techniques make special rather than manual identifying of breast cancer, also it includes different research paper surveys that many professional authors have done. Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) are being used in deep learning to tackle a range of classification and prediction tasks, including breast imaging like Long Short Term Memory(LSTM) and Recurrent Neural Network(RNN) networks.

Congenital abnormalities, trauma, and infections all cause tissue and organ loss in both humans and animals. The human being's body has a lower regenerating capability than urodele amphibians, sometimes known as salamanders. Hundreds of thousands of people worldwide would benefit greatly from the ability to replace organs and tissues on demand. Historically, transplanting intact organs and tissues has served as the foundation for replacing damaged and sick body components. Dependence on transplant has resulted in waiting list of persons wanting organs and tissues donated, and supply is often insufficient. To provide risk-free and reputable sources, Scientists together with clinicians attempts to develop medications and procedures for regenerating tissue and, in some circumstances, creating completely new tissue. Tissues engineering, often known as regenerative medicine, is a branch of life sciences that integrates engineering techniques with biological concepts in order to create new organs as well as tissues or to stimulate the regenerative process of injured or diseased tissues. Significant advances are being made not only in regenerative medicine (RM), but also in tissue engineering, which will have a significant influence on natural 3D bioprinting (BP) of organs as well as tissues. 3D BP has tremendous potential not only in tissue BP, but also for artificial organs. This paper examines Recent advancements into regenerative medicine including tissues engineering can assist from 3D BP and conversely.

With this idea research was carried out to screen the microflora in the gut of live and dead worker honeybees (Apis mellifera) and their associated brood and soil samples, from the popular local apiaries located at two different regions of Prayagraj district India. Bacteriae identified from the gut of live and dead bees and brood and soil samples from both the sites belonged to the genus Staphylococcus, Enterobacter, Enterococcus, Bacillus and Pseudomonas. Microflora obtained from all the samples of site IFFCO Cordet showed significant results. It was found that the samples from live bees were significantly different from the bacterial counts obtained from the brood samples, while the bacteria isolated from the sample of dead bee was significantly different from both the samples of brood and soil respectively. Results of different samples from Jhunsi Chatnag site were found to be significantly different from each other. Highest bacterial count was obtained from live honey bee gut sample of IFFCO Cordet. The findings showed that there is a firm relationship between the gastrointestinal microflora balance and the health status of the host. It was concluded that Bacillus, Enterobacter and Enterococcus are reported to have positive symbiotic relationship with Apis mellifera and at the same time, present findings reports for the absence of Enterobacter and Bacillus in the gut of bee. Pseudomonas are reported as to be involved in xenobiotic degradation. At the same time species of Pseudomonas and Staphylococcus aureus can be so harmful that they may lead to colony collapse. Accordingly, our findings reports on the presence of both Pseudomonas and Staphylococcus in the dead bee samples. Thus, bacteria isolated in the findings can be further identified for their strains for better understanding the significance and relationship with its host and its specific utility can be further exploited at industrial levels as well.

Authors: - Al-Ghani D. Mohammad
Published: June 2024

Fishing is the primary source of income and economic activity in the Zamboanga Peninsula's coastal barangays. However, due to several conflict and security challenges, such as the presence of armed groups in certain coastal barangays and their management of marine resources, the sustainability and patterns of fishing as a critical economic activity have been severely harmed. Additionally, the Philippine government's annual closed fishing season, which runs from December 1 to March 1 every year, exacerbates the fishermen's difficulties. The purpose of this study is to examine how the presence of armed groups affects poverty and structural inequality in fishing communities affected by armed conflicts, as well as how their governance of maritime resources contributes to poverty and structural inequality. Conflict and security are critical components of this study. It illustrates the degree of violence experienced by individuals and households in their respective barangays. Quantitative and qualitative methodologies are utilized to elucidate the relationship between armed group governance of maritime resources and armed conflict. The findings of the study demonstrate the critical role of armed groups in resource management in the Zamboanga Peninsula's coastal barangays, as well as the impact of their presence on the economic activities of residents and households. Additionally, the findings of the study indicate that security and conflict are significant factors in the economic activities of individuals and households in barangays. Additionally, the presence of armed groups in barangays influences the economic activities of these individuals and households, implying that these armed groups wield power over the populace and barangays. Because the armed groups are composed of fishermen, adequate education should be provided to ensure their long-term viability. Additionally, it is recommended that these barangays receive basic services and facilities.

Assessment of the School Improvement Plan in Relation to School Performance: Basis For a Strategic Planning
Authors: - Baby Hawani Miranda
Published: June 2024

ABSTRACT
In this study, two hundred sixty-two (262) respondents from a very large school in the Division of Antipolo City assessed the school improvement plan and school performance using a survey questionnaire, and fifteen respondents (15) verified their answers through interviews. The study utilized a descriptive-quantitative method. The purposive sampling technique was used. Three (3) experts from the field of principals validated a researcher-made instrument. It was tested for reliability and applied ethical consideration.
The following conclusions were drawn: the principal respondents are mostly female, have a doctorate degree, are 16 years of age or older in service, hold the position of Principal IV, and all of them are project leaders. While teacher respondents are mostly female, having a master’s degree, being 16 years of age or older in service, and holding the position of teacher I, in terms of designations most of them are project team member,but according to them, it doesn't matter the position; teachers can lead the projects depending on their willingness and ability.
The assessments of respondents on the school improvement plan, quality of projects, stakeholders’ support, teachers’ performance, learners’ performance, and allocation of budget are very good. While school performance is shown, the enrollment rate highly depends on the teachers’ performance, while budget allocation is low. And the dropout rate strongly depends on the learners’ performance and weakly on the teachers' performance. Lastly, graduation rate: the greatest factor is the results from the learners’ performance, while the least is the results from the allocation of budget.
The assessment of the school improvement plan of principal respondents based on their demographic profile is not significant. While teacher respondents in terms of sex are not significant, educational attainment is not significant except in the quality of projects, and learners’ performance, length of service, position, and designation are significant. While at the school, both principals and teacher respondents based on their demographic profiles are not significant.
The overall school improvement plan was found to have a significant impact on school performance, as assessed by the two groups of respondents. Recommendations are discussed, and a strategic plan is presented.

In this paper, I would like to emphatically draw the attention on the spheres of inevitable discrepancies of highly ambitious world, especially to the obsessed appreciator of technical advancement, who undermines its adverse impact on the cultural and social outlook. To clearly state that, though we have made such a great development, but somewhere we have forgotten or bereft of ourselves due to quenching of apparent or external ‘I’ rather taking heed of inner self. With this line of thought, the whole paper on the novel Fury would be analyzed. The male protagonist Mallik Solanka who procrastinates from the real questions of its conscious, through him are projected multifarious problems- Social perversions, moral digression, racism and women portrayal. As these are issues that, deals with the identity crisis of the different characters in the novel. Though Fury depicts the American life and attitude but to great extent it’s an epitome for all the developed or developing nations. Thus Rushdie in Fury tries to depict that, America in the highest hour of its hybrid, was in truth a place of half-truths, half-knowledge, classical mishmash and of course technology. This is symbolic to all those nations of global exposure and influence reverberating the theme of American dream.
