Emerging materials and technologies for next-generation sensors in smart IoT systems: a comprehensive review

As the Internet of Things (IoT) continues to advance at an unprecedented rate, there is a growing need for intelligent, adaptable, low-power and sustainable sensing platforms that can operate autonomously over long periods. This paper examines the technological advances in IoT se...

Thymidine kinase 1 is elevated in prostate cancer and correlates with tumor aggressiveness: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Non-invasive biomarkers can inform prostate cancer diagnosis, surgical decision-making, and treatment. However, early screening biomarkers, including prostate-specific antigen (PSA), lack specificity due to elevation in benign conditions. Thymidine kinase 1 (TK1), a DNA synthesis...

Enhancing blepharoplasty outcomes with a novel floor bite technique

Blepharoplasty is a commonly performed esthetic and functional eyelid surgery. However, post-operative complications such as hematoma formation and wound dehiscence can compromise surgical outcomes. This article presents a novel modification – placing a floor bite during wound cl...

Experimental and numerical investigation of voltage-dependent active vibration control on a notch-cracked composite mono leaf spring

This paper presents combined experimental and numerical research on the application of an Active Vibration Control System (AVCS) to a cracked glass-fibre-reinforced polymer (GFRP) composite mono leaf spring for automotive suspension systems, an application that, to the authors’ k...

Volatility-adaptive temporal learning framework using hybrid ARIMA-QuadGRU attention for multi-regime financial forecasting

Abstract Conventional financial market forecasting models are challenged by the non-stationarity, the existence of regime changes, the presence of structural breaks, and the phenomena of volatility clustering in financial markets. Linear approaches have only limited accuracy in t...

Chronic Retained Products of Conception Masked by Müllerian Duct Anomaly: The Diagnostic Value of Hysteroscopy

ABSTRACT: Müllerian duct anomalies are congenital uterine malformations that may present with pelvic pain, menstrual irregularities, or infertility. However, acquired intrauterine pathologies can occasionally mimic congenital anomalies on imaging, leading to diagnostic confusion....

Antitubercular evaluation and synthesis of fused pyrano-thiazole-2-one derivatives via green and efficient protocol

Tuberculosis has become one of the leading causes of mortality worldwide. In developing countries, tuberculosis is one of the 10th leading causes of death, highlighting the urgent need for antitubercular drugs. In this study, we synthesized fused pyrano-thiazole-2-one derivatives...

Resilience and Disparity: A statistical reevaluation of the pandemic-era self-harm crisis using Global Burden of Disease data (1990–2023)

Background Early models projected pandemic-driven increases in suicide and violence. This study utilizes Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2023 data to evaluate mortality trajectories for self-harm and interpersonal violence (1990-2023), assessing regional and demographic pandemic-e...

Case report on Vitamin B6-Responsive Gyrate atrophy with Cystoid Macular Edema in a Consanguineous Young Male: A Treatable Metabolic Retinopathy

Abstract Gyrate atrophy is a rare autosomal recessive chorioretinal dystrophy caused by ornithine aminotransferase deficiency, resulting in toxic accumulation of plasma ornithine and progressive retinal degeneration. We describe a 20-year-old male, born to consanguineous parents,...

Two Forgotten Ipsilateral Double J Stents Managed in a Single Session: A Rare Endourologic Challenge

ABSTRACT: Forgotten ureteral stents may lead to severe complications such as encrustation, infection, obstruction, and stone formation, especially when retained beyond 12 weeks. Dual forgotten stents in the same renal system managed in a single operative session are rare. A 51-ye...

Exploring effect of excitation wavelength on upconversion emission in Nd, Yb, Er and Ho tetra co-doped Y2O3 phosphor and use in optical thermometry

This paper examines the effects of excitation wavelength, power, and temperature on the upconversion (UC) emission of phosphors prepared by doping Y 2 O 3 with combinations of four rare earth ions (Nd 3+ , Yb 3+ , Er 3+ , and Ho 3+ ) synthesised via the combustion route. Structur...

Coinfection of Two Endemics – Scrub Typhus and Malaria

ABSTRACT: Malaria and scrub typhus are both significant causes of acute febrile illness in the Indian subcontinent. Due to their overlapping clinical manifestations, it can be a challenge to distinguish between the two. Coinfection, although rarely seen, may lead to greater disea...

Giant Mesenteric Angioleiomyoma: A Rare Case Report

ABSTRACT: Angioleiomyomas are rare benign tumors of smooth muscle primarily originating from blood vessels. This tumor displays a distinctive histological pattern characterized by bundles of spindle-shaped smooth muscle cells arranged around numerous small vascular spaces. The di...

As India expands HPV vaccination for girls, inclusion of boys deserves consideration

Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) infection is Commonly associated with cervical carcinoma; however, HPV affects both female and male and contributes to a broad spectrum of diseases. HPV infection can cause benign conditions such as genital warts as well as HPV-associated malignancies,...
