Published: October 2023

Water scarcity profoundly affects crop growth in rain-fed regions,
including the Pacific Northwest (PNW) of the USA. While unmanned aerial
vehicles (UAVs) are integral for crop monitoring in breeding programs,
their use is resource-intensive and necessitates pilot presence in the
field. Alternatively, Internet of Things (IoT)-based sensor systems
offer continuous, remote, and real-time monitoring, but their data
integrity requires validation for field applications. This study
developed a Raspberry Pi-based sensor system (AGIcam+) and compared its
efficacy with UAV in discerning crop responses to drought conditions
across various wheat varieties in the PNW region. Multispectral and
thermal data were collected across wheat trials (Winter 2023; Spring
2022, 2023) at crucial growth stages – preheading, heading, and
post-heading – under varied drought stress conditions. Key vegetation
indices and temperature measurements were extracted for a comparative
drought performance analysis. Results indicate significant correlations
between AGIcam+ and UAV data, more pronounced during the heading and
post-heading stages. Pearson’s correlation coefficients for normalized
difference vegetation index (NDVI) and 95th percentile temperature data
ranged from 0.81-0.88 and 0.81-0.95 (P <0.01),
respectively, across all trials during the heading stages. Yield
prediction models using multivariate linear regression analysis from
both systems’ data underscored AGIcam+’s accuracy in yield estimation,
demonstrating performance comparable to UAV, as evidenced in the Spring
2023 trial (AGIcam+: R =
0.79, RMSE = 741.7 kg/hectare;
UAV: R = 0.86, RMSE = 582.0
kg/hectare). These findings underscore AGIcam+ as a resource-efficient
crop monitoring alternative, effectively capturing responses to
environmental conditions and facilitating accurate yield predictions
under drought stress.

Published: October 2023

Abstract
The aim of this study is to forecast the revenue of a seller taking part in an online e-commerce marketplace by using hybrid intelligent methods to help the seller build a solid financial plan. For this purpose, three different approaches are applied in order to accurately forecast the revenue. In the first approach, after applying simple preprocessing steps on the dataset, forecast models are developed with Random Forest (RF). In the second approach, Isolation Forest (IF) is used to detect outliers on the dataset, and minimum Redundancy Maximum Relevance (mRMR) is utilized to select the features that affect the quality of revenue forecast, correctly. In the last approach, a feature selection process is performed first and then the Density-Based Spatial Clustering and Application with Noise (DBSCAN) is used to cluster the dataset. After these processes are carried out, forecast models are developed with RF. The dataset used includes the daily revenue of a seller with several other features. Mean Absolute Percent Error (MAPE) is used for evaluating the performance of the forecast models.

Abstract
Chlorination is one of the most commonly used procedures for drinking waterdisinfection. The research aimed to soptimise the subsequent disinfection ofdrinking water with chlorine in the water supply network in the city Velenje,taking into account the applicable legislation. The gradual reduction of chlorinedosage was implemented with simultaneous monitoring of selected physico-chemical and microbiological parameters of drinking water. During the two-month period, 418 samples were taken at 22 previously defined differentsampling spots. Free chlorine values were reduced from the initial 0,18 mg/L tothe final 0,08 mg/L at the outlet, while values at some remote sampling sitesreached only 0,01 mg/L of free chlorine. Microbiological analyses of samplesshowed that the drinking water met the limit values in the regulations, despitethe low values of free chlorine. Based on the results, a modified chlorination ofdrinking water was introduced in the tested supply area, and the introduction ofa similar regime in other supply areas is being actively considered. In this way,we reduce the consumption of disinfectants and ensure the supply of qualityand healthy drinking water to consumers.

Published: October 2023

Abstract
Macroeconomic variables uncertainty relationship with key sectors in nations’ economies for both emerged and emerging economies have been investigated. In Nigeria, an emerging country, there is dearth of studies that have related macroeconomic variable uncertainty to health system performance. This study thus, bridges the gap by examining the time series of macroeconomic uncertainty and health outcomes by employing the Autoregressive Distributive Lag methodology. The macroeconomic variables investigated in the study are the exchange rate, the inflation rate, per capita income and index of health outcomes. The annual data for these macroeconomic variables span from 1980 to 2019. Augmented Dickey Fuller is employed to ascertain the stationarity state of the engaged macroeconomic data, while cause and effect among the variables are determined using the Granger causality test. In all, the findings reveal that, among the macroeconomic variables, exchange rate uncertainty has substantial impact on health outcomes. Inflation though has significant p-value, its sign is contrary to expectations. While the causality between health outcomes and per capita income is bi-directional, it is one-directional with exchange rate and non-directional with inflation rate. Based on these findings, a key policy recommendation is that, an inward looking approach should be encouraged to seek healthcare inputs within the nation’s economy to substitute for the hitherto imported ones. By so doing, foreign currency demand will be greatly eased, and a gradual move towards economic diversification could begin.

Authors: Eshiet Unyime I. , Njoku Chikosolu R. 
Published: October 2023

Objectives:
Individualized care has the potential to significantly improve health outcomes in patients with chronic conditions. This study was aimed at evaluating the quality of individualized care and its impact on clinical outcomes in patients with the human immunodeficiency virus/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS) receiving treatment in a resource-limited setting.

Materials and Methods:
The study was a cross-sectional prospective study carried out in the HIV/AIDS clinic of the University of Uyo Teaching Hospital, Nigeria. Data on the demographic and clinical details of the patients were obtained from patient’s case notes using a suitably designed, pre-piloted data collection instrument. Data on patients’ assessment of the quality of individualized care were obtained using a “Patient Assessment of Quality of Individualized Care for Chronic Illness Scale.” Quantitative data were analyzed using the IBM Statistical Product and Service Solutions version 25.0 computer package. Descriptive statistics was used to summarize data, whereas inferential statistics was used where applicable with statistical significance set at P < 0.05.

Results:
The overall mean patients’ satisfaction with individualized care score was 3.54 (standard deviation = ±0.86; max. = 5). The majority of the patients (271) had a documented viral load of <50 copies/mL, whereas 27% (109) of the patients had a recently documented CD4 count that was >500 cells/mm3. Bivariate analysis showed that the quality of individualized care was positively correlated with the patients’ CD4 count (r = 0.036; P = 0.657). A negative correlation between the quality of individualized care and the patients’ viral load (r = −0.103; P = 0.177) was also found.

Conclusion:
Provision of individualized care to patients with HIV/AIDS may improve clinical outcomes. In making therapeutic decisions, clinicians should take into cognizance individual patients’ preferences and needs.

Let $N_m$ be the set of positive integers $1, 2, \cdots, m$ and $S \subseteq N_m$. In 2000, J. Caumeran and R. Corcino made a thorough investigation on counting restricted functions $f_{|S}$ under each of the following conditions:\begin{itemize}\item[(\textit{a})]$f(a) \leq a$, $\forall a \in S$;\item[(\textit{b})] $f(a) \leq g(a)$, $\forall a \in S$ where $g$ is any nonnegative real-valued continuous functions;\item[(\textit{c})] $g_1(a) \leq f(a) \leq g_2(a)$, $\forall a \in S$, where $g_1$ and $g_2$ are any nonnegative real-valued continuous functions.\end{itemize}Several formulae and identities were also obtained by Caumeran using basic concepts in combinatorics.In this paper, we count those restricted functions under condition $f(a) \leq a$, $\forall a \in S$, which is one-to-one and onto, and establish some formulas and identities parallel to those obtained by J. Caumeran and R. Corcino.
