Published: June 2024

Context: Breast cancer poses significant challenges due to its high incidence and prevalence, necessitating heightened attention. Understanding how patients prioritize different treatment options based on various attributes can assist healthcare decision-makers in maximizing patient utility. The discrete choice experiment, a conjoint method, facilitates preference elicitation by presenting different attributes and choices. This systematic review aims to identify key factors in patient preference research related to adjuvant treatment for early breast cancer characterized by hormone receptor-positive, HER2-negative status. Evidence Acquisition: PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Scopus were searched from 01.01.2000 to 31.03.2023. Original English articles reporting patient preferences in adjuvant breast cancer treatment were retrieved based on predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria. Included studies were examined through a narrative synthesis approach, with descriptive statistics employed for analysis. Results: Out of 1163 articles reviewed, four met the inclusion criteria and were conducted in the USA, Canada, and the Netherlands. Attributes extracted from all studies included alopecia, sensory neuropathy, motor neuropathy, myalgia/arthralgia, nausea, vomiting, fatigue, neutropenia, mucositis/stomatitis, hand-foot syndrome, diarrhea, prevention of breast cancer recurrence, osteoporosis, risk of endometrial cancer, joint and muscle pain, fluid retention, libido decrease, hot flashes, ECG monitoring, efficacy, treatment regimen, 5-year invasive disease-free survival (iDFS), dosing schedule, and treatment duration. The most frequently reported attributes were side effects, efficacy, and treatment regimen. Systematic review was commonly used to determine which attributes and levels to include. The minimum number of attributes identified per study was seven, and the maximum was 12. Sample sizes ranged from 102 to 300, with none of the studies mentioning the method of sample size estimation. Ordinary Least Squares, logistic regression, and hierarchical Bayes regression were the most frequent analysis methods. Conclusions: Side effects, 5-year iDFS, and treatment regimen are three attributes identified for conducting discrete choice experiment studies. Utilizing conjoint analysis to assess patient preferences for breast cancer treatment can aid in selecting optimal treatment regimens and improving patient adherence. Moreover, adhering to guidelines for developing experimental designs and conducting data analysis is essential for yielding robust results when employing preference elicitation methods.

Authors: Rajabi Majid , Yari Siamak , Fakhraei Nahid , Fahanik-Babaei Javad , Amini Abdollah
Published: June 2024

Background: Curcumin, found in the rhizome of Curcuma longa, demonstrates anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective properties. Objectives: This study aims to assess its effects on the proliferation and differentiation of embryonic neural stem cells (NSCs). Methods: Female rats (n = 36) became pregnant, resulting in the formation of embryos (n = 176). Neural stem cells from female embryos (n = 50, embryonic day 15.5, E15.5) were cultured in a serum-free medium with growth factors (FGF-2 and EGF). Curcumin was then added at doses of 0.1, 0.5, and 1 µM. The proliferation of NSCs was assessed using the MTT colorimetric assay, nestin immunofluorescence labeling, and RT-PCR. NSC differentiation was compared using immunocytochemistry (ICC) and RT-PCR for nestin, glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), and class III β-tubulin (Tuj-1). Results: Curcumin at concentrations of 0.1 and 0.5 µM increased the proliferation of NSCs, as indicated by an increase in neurosphere diameter. Similarly, the MTT assay showed that curcumin at doses of 0.1 and 0.5 µM enhanced the viability of NSCs. In the differentiation condition, no significant difference was observed. However, RT-PCR analysis showed that nestin and GFAP expressions reached their highest levels in cells treated with curcumin at a dose of 0.5 µM, while Tuj-1 expression significantly increased in cells treated with curcumin at a dose of 1 µM. Conclusions: Curcumin at lower doses may regulate the proliferation and differentiation of NSCs. Treating NSCs with curcumin could provide a promising option for pre-differentiation before cell therapy.

As wireless signals are broadcast in nature, which implies that, a broadcast communication purposive to a predetermined destination may be received by a non-intended intermediate station. Cooperative transference, which employ interposed stations to pass on the eavesdropped data to attain the contrast gains, has a substantial capability to revamp the channeling effectiveness in wireless systems. In this it is evident that having cooperation amid stations in a wireless system can accomplish higher throughput with enhanced network lifetime. Proffered work bestows a model for medium access layer called Cooperative MAC protocol based on optimal Data Rate (CMAC-DR). In the proffered work, stations with more data rate aid stations having lesser data rate in their communication by redirecting their congestion. In CMAC-DR model, utilizing the conveyance of eavesdropped information, potential helper stations with more data rate Send out Helper Ready to Send (HRTS), the stations with less data rate maintains a table, called Co-op table of potential helper stations, that can aid in its transmissions. During communication, the source station with low data rate chooses either transmitting by the way of a helper station, so that it lowers the end to end transference delay and increases the throughput or opt only direct transmission, if no potential helper is found or if CMAC-DR becomes an overhead. By analyzing varied simulated scenarios, CMAC-DR evaluates the elevation in the overall network lifetime, throughput and minimization of delay. The CMAC-DR protocol is unambiguous and in accordant with legacy 802.11 also when compared to this, we find improved performance in terms of delay throughput and network lifetime since data rate is considered as relay selection condition.

Model-based parameter estimation, identification, and optimisation play a dominant role in many aspects of physical and operational processes in applied sciences, engineering, and other related disciplines. The intricate task involves engaging and fitting the most appropriate parametric model with nonlinear or linear features to experimental field datasets priori to selecting the best optimisation algorithm with the best configuration. Thus, the task is usually geared towards solving a clear optimsation problem. In this paper, a systematic-stepwise approach has been employed to review and benchmark six numerical-based optimization algorithms in MATLAB computational Environment. The algorithms include the Gradient Descent (GRA), Levenberg-Marguardt (LEM), Quasi-Newton (QAN), Gauss-Newton (GUN), Nelda-Meald (NEM), and Trust-Region-Dogleg (TRD). This has been accomplished by engaging them to solve an intricate radio frequency propagation modelling and parametric estimation in connection with practical spatial signal data. The spatial signal data were obtained via real-time field drive test conducted around six eNodeBs transmitters, with case studies taken from different terrains where 4G LTE transmitters are operational. Accordingly, three criteria in connection with rate of convergence Results show that the approximate hessian-based QAN algorithm, followed by the LEM algorithm yielded the best results in optimizing and estimating the RF propagation models parameters. The resultant approach and output of this paper will be of countless assets in assisting the end-users to select the most preferable optimization algorithm to handle their respective intricate problems.

Data transport entails substantial security to avoid unauthorized snooping as data mining yields important and quite often sensitive information that must be and can be secured using one of the myriad Data Privacy Preservation methods. This study aspires to provide new knowledge to the study of protecting personal information. The key contributions of the work are an imputation method for filling in missing data before learning item profiles and the optimization of the Deep Auto-encoded NMF with a customizable learning rate. We used Bayesian inference to assess imputation for data with 13%, 26%, and 52% missing at random. By correcting any inherent biases, the results of decomposition problems may be enhanced. As the statistical analysis tool, MAPE is used. The proposed approach is evaluated on the Wiki dataset and the traffic dataset, against state-of-the-art techniques including BATF, BGCP, BCPF, and modified PARAFAC, all of which use a Bayesian Gaussian tensor factorization. Using this approach, the MAPE index is decreased for data which avails privacy safeguards than its corresponding original forms.

Published: June 2024

Transmission control protocol (TCP) is the most common protocol found in recent networks to maintain reliable communication. The most popular transport protocol in use today is TCP that cannot fully utilize the ability of the network because of the constraints of its conservative congestion control algorithm and favor’s reliability over timeliness. Despite congestion is the most frequent cause of lost packets, transmission defects can also result in packet loss. In response to packet loss, end-to-end congestion control mechanism in TCP limits the amount of remarkable, unacknowledged data segments that are permitted in the network. To overcome the drawback, Optimized Extreme Gradient Boosting Algorithm is proposed to predict the congestion. Initially, the data is collected and given to data preprocessing to improve the data quality. Min-Max normalization is used to normalize the data in the particular range and KNN-based missing value imputation is used to replace the missing values in the original data in the preprocessing section. Then the preprocessed data is fed into the Optimized Extreme Gradient Boosting Algorithm to predict the congestion. Remora optimization is used in the designed model for optimally selecting the learning rate to minimize the error for enhancing the prediction accuracy in machine learning. For validating the proposed model, the performance metrics attained by the proposed and existing model are compared. Accuracy, precision, recall and error values for the proposed methods are 96%, 97%, 96% and 3% values are obtained. Thus, the proposed optimized extreme gradient boosting with the remora algorithm for congestion prediction in the transport layer method is the best method than the existing algorithm.
