Authors: Floess Emily , Grieshop Andrew , Puzzolo Elisa , Pope Daniel , Leach Nicholas , Smith Christopher J. , Gill-Wiehl Annelise , Landesman Katherine , Bailis Rob 
Published: November 2022

Abstract
Nearly three billion people in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) rely on polluting fuels, resulting in millions of avoidable deaths annually. Polluting fuels also emit short-lived climate forcers and greenhouse gases (GHGs). Liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and grid-based electricity are scalable alternatives to polluting fuels but have raised climate and health concerns. Here, we compare emissions and climate impacts of a business-as-usual household cooking fuel trajectory to four large-scale transitions to gas and/or grid electricity in 77 LMICs. We use upstream and end-use emissions in a reduced-complexity emissions-based climate model to estimate radiative forcing and temperature changes associated with each scenario. We find full transitions to LPG and/or electricity decrease emissions from both well-mixed GHG and short-lived climate forcers, resulting in a roughly 5 mK global temperature reduction by 2040. Transitions to LPG and/or electricity also reduce annual emissions of PM2.5 by over 6 Mt (99%) by 2040, which would substantially lower health risks. Social Media Abstract Full transitions to LPG or grid electricity in LMICs improve climate impacts over BAU trajectories.

Published: November 2022

Abstract
Introduction - Melanoacanthoma of the oral cavity is rare benign reactive pigmented lesion. It has been recently considered as a distinct entity in the World Health Organization (WHO) classification. Oral melanoacanthomas are reactive and not related to seborrheic keratosis unlike their cutaneous counterparts which are variant of pigmented seborrheic neoplastic in nature. These lesions are characterized by hyperplasia of dendritic melanocytes dispersed throughout an acanthotic epithelium with buccal mucosa being the most common location. Case History - An 81 year old female presented to us with complaint of blackish patch on hard palate. The patient underwent biopsy and the histopathological diagnosis of Melanoacanthoma was given. Conclusions - To the best of our knowledge this is first such case of Melanoacanthoma on the hard palate in Indian subcontinent.

Abstract
Background and aim Clubroot is an infectious root disease caused by Plasmodiophora brassicae in Brassica crops, which can cause immeasurable losses. We aimed to explore the infection mechanism under P. brassicae integrating transcriptome, small RNA, degradome and phytohormone technology .
Result In this study, root samples of Brassica rapa resistant line BrT24 (R-line) and susceptible line Y510-9 (S-line) were collected at four different time points for cytological, transcriptome, miRNA and degradome investigations. We found the critical period of disease resistance and infection at 0 - 3 days and 9 - 20 days, respectively. Based on our finding we further analyzed the data of 9 d vs 20 d of S-line and predicted the key genes ARF8 , NAC1 , NAC4 , TCP10 , SPL14 , REV and ATHB related to clubroot disease development and regulating disease resistance mechanisms. These genes are mainly related to auxin, cytokinin, jasmonic acid and ethylene cycles. We proposed a regulatory model of plant hormones under the mRNA-miRNA regulation in the critical period of P. brassicae infection by using integrative transcriptome, small RNA, degradome and phytohormone technology.
Conclusion Our integrative analysis found that the bra-miR164/NAC1/4 , bra-miR319/TCP10 and bra-miR167/ARF8 were associated with clubroot symptoms development, which provide new insights into the regulation relationship of miRNA and plant hormones during the process of disease infection .
Automatic Diagnosis of Cardiovascular Diseases from ECG Signals using Convolutional Neural Network and Soft Computing Methods
Authors: Goyal Shimpy 
Published: November 2022

Abstract
Since the last decade, the Electrocardiogram (ECG) tool has received medical experts and researchers' attention for accurate and fast diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases (CVD). The automatic detection and classification of 1D ECG-based heart disease have become more realistic and efficient solutions using the deep learning technique such as Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). As CNN is designed mainly for 2D or 3D applications therefore, designing CNN to process 1D ECG becomes challenging. We proposed a novel framework for automatic CVD detection and classification from the raw ECG signals using 1D-CNN deep learning technique. The framework consists of pre-processing, automatic feature extraction, feature optimization, and classification. In pre-processing, raw ECG signals are filtered to remove the baseline drift and power line interference using median and notch filters respectively. The pre-processed ECG signals are then used to extract the QRS and ST waves using the dynamic thresholding in the wavelet transfer domain. The fusion of QRS and ST waves have fed to automatic 1D-CNN that consists of layers i.e,1D convolutional layer, ReLU layer, and max-pooling layers. The 1D-CNN is proposed in this paper to extract features automatically with little computing complexity. The high-dimensional raw CNN features are optimized by applying a feature selection and scaling approach. For classification, different soft computing techniques such as Long- Short Term Memory (LSTM), Support Vector Machine (SVM), Naïve Bays (NB), Artificial Neural Network (ANN), and k-nearest neighbor (KNN) are applied. The experimental performances of the proposed model have been investigated on a publicly available research dataset and outperformed recent CNN-based techniques.

Abstract
Background

Epstein Barr virus (EBV)-associated endemic Burkitt's Lymphoma pediatric cancer is associated with morbidity and mortality among children resident in holoendemic Plasmodium falciparum regions in western Kenya. P. falciparum exerts a strong selection pressure on sickle cell trait (SCT), alpha thalassemia (-α3.7/αα), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD), and merozoite surface protein 2 (MSP-2) variants (FC27, 3D7) that confer reduced malarial disease severity

Methods

Data on infant EBV infection status (<6 and ≥6-12 months of ages) was abstracted from a previous longitudinal study. Archived infant DNA (n=81) and mothers DNA (n=70) samples were used for genotyping hemoglobinopathies and MSP-2. Presence of MSP-2 genotypes in maternal DNA samples was used to indicate infant in utero malarial exposure. Genetic variants were determined by TaqMan assays or standard PCR. Group differences were determined by Chi-square or Fisher’s analysis. Bivariate regression modelling was used to determine the relationship between carriage of genetic variants and EBV acquisition.

Results

EBV acquisition for infants <6 months was not associated with -α3.7/αα (OR=1.824, P =0.354), SCT (OR=0.897, P=0.881), or G6PD [Viangchan (871G>A)/Chinese (1024C>T) (OR=2.614, P=0.212)] and [Union (1360C>T)/Kaiping (1388G>A) (OR=0.321, P=0.295)]. There was no relationship between EBV acquisition and in utero exposure to either FC27 (OR=0.922, P=0.914) or 3D7 (OR=0.933, P=0.921). In addition, EBV acquisition in infants ≥6-12 months also showed no association with -α3.7/αα (OR=0.681, P=0.442), SCT (OR=0.513, P=0.305), G6PD [(Viangchan (871G>A)/Chinese (1024C>T) (OR=0.640, P=0.677)], [Mahidol (487G>A)/Coimbra (592C>T) (OR=0.948, P=0.940)], [(Union (1360C>T)/Kaiping (1388G>A) (OR=1.221, P=0.768)], African A (OR=0.278, P=0.257)], or in utero exposure to either FC27 (OR=0.780, P=0.662) or 3D7 (OR=0.549, P=0.241).
Conclusion: Although hemoglobinopathies (-α3.7/αα, SCT, and G6PD mutations) and in utero exposure to MSP-2 was not associated with EBV acquisition in infants 0-12 months, novel G6PD variants were discovered in the population from western Kenya. To definitely establish that the known and novel hemoglobinopathies, and in utero MSP-2 exposure do not confer susceptibility to EBV, future studies with larger sample sizes are required.

Published: November 2022

Abstract
Background: Over past decades, epidemiological patterns of liver cancer (LC) have changed dramatically. The Global Burden Of Disease (GBD) study provides an opportunity to tracking the progress in cancer control with its annual updated reports at national, regional, global level, which can facilitate the health decision-making and the allocation of health resources. Therefore, we aim to estimate the global, regional and national trends of death caused by liver cancer due to specific etiologies and attributable risks from 1990 to 2019.
Materials and Methods: Data was collected from the GBD study 2019. Estimated annual percentage changes (EAPC) were used to quantify the trends of age-standardized death rate (ASDR). We applied a linear regression for the calculation of estimated annual percentage change in ASDR.
Results: From 1990 to 2019, the ASDR of liver cancer decreased globally (EAPC = −2.23, 95% confidence interval [CI]: −2.61 to −1.84). Meanwhile, declining trends were observed in both sexes, socio-demographic index (SDI) areas, and geographies, particularly East Asia (EAPC =−4.98, 95%CI: −5.73 to −4.22). The ASDR for all four major etiologies decreased globally, particularly LC owing to hepatitis B (EPAC = −3.46, 95% CI: −4.01 to −2.89). At the national level, China has seen dramatic decreases in death rates, particularly in the etiology of hepatitis B (EAPC = −5.17, 95% CI: −5.96 to −4.37). However, mortality from liver cancer increased in certain countries, including Armenia and Uzbekistan. Controlling smoking, alcohol, and drug use contributed to a drop in LC-related mortality in the majority of socio-demographic index areas. However, the excessive BMI was portrayed as the underlying cause for LC fatalities.
Conclusion: From 1990 to 2019, there was a worldwide decrease in deaths caused by liver cancer and its underlying causes. However, rising tendencies have been observed in low-resource regions and countries. The trends in drug use- and high BMI-related death from liver cancer and its underlying etiologies were concerning. The findings indicated that efforts should be increased to prevent liver cancer deaths through improved etiology control and risk management.

Published: November 2022

Abstract
Background: Due to the increasing costs of the health system and limited financial resources, healthcare policymakers should apply more cost-effective strategies. This study aimed to compare the cost-effectiveness of laparotomy cholecystectomy with laparoscopy.
Methods: This economic evaluation was performed on patients with cholecystitis who were candidate for surgery in a private hospital in Ahvaz, southwest of Iran, in 2021. Data collection tools consisted of 4 parts: 1) demographic information checklist; 2) clinical information checklist; 3) cost checklist (e.g. costs related to a surgeon, operating room supplies, surgeon assistance, anesthesia and hoteling) and 4) effectiveness assessment tool (e.g., pain questionnaire and questions related to hospital days, duration of surgery, days of return to work and infection). We used SPSS22 and STATA14.2 for data analysis. One-way sensitivity analysis and Tornado diagrams were performed using Tree Age software.
Results: The mean total effectiveness score in patients treated with laparoscopy 83.44 (SD = 11.34) was higher than those treated with laparotomy 68.39 (SD = 13.61). This difference was statistically significant in all effectiveness criteria except for postoperative infection dimensions and length of operation (P-value <0.001). The mean cost in patients undergoing laparoscopy was significantly higher than those undergoing laparotomy (481.43 $ VS 459.49 $), but overall laparoscopic treatment (5.77) was more cost-effective than laparotomy (6.71). The cost-effectiveness of the laparoscopic procedure was approximately 1.47 $ per effectiveness unit cheaper than laparotomy, according to the ICER. According to one-way sensitivity analysis, the laparotomy method was still more effective by changing the cost and effectiveness components.
Conclusion: Although laparoscopic cholecystectomy was more expensive than laparotomy cholecystectomy, it was generally more cost-effective. The results of this research may help Iran’s health system policymakers and managers in order to extend laparoscopic cholecystectomy in more hospitals.
