Abstract

Mycochemical composition, calorific value, the antioxidant activity of Pleurotus tuber- regium was analyzed and impact of P. tuber- regium extract on rat model especially glycemic, vitamins and blood parameters were explored to validate its medicinal importance. Mycochemical screening showed the presence of biochemicals such as phenols, flavonoids, proteins, carbohydrates etc. The extract showed good antioxidant activity (33.62% total antioxidant activity equivalent to 21.30 µg ascorbic acid). The extract showed dose -dependent hypoglycaemic activity by significant decreased average blood glucose level at high dose (100.62 ± 1.04mg/dL) compare to control (124.40 ± 1.45 mg/dL), haematinic activity by elevation of hemoglobin (14.75 ± 0.24 g/dL) at a high dose of extract compared to control (11.66 ± 0.21 g/dL). P. tuber-regium extract elevated vitamin B12 of rats at high dose of extract (449.60 ± 3.12 pg/mL) compared to control (420.00 ± 2.86pg/mL). P. tuber-regium extract showed a positive response to hypoglycemic, haematinic, and vitamin level of the body and posses high calorific value. Hence P. tuber-regium can be used as good fodder, medicinal and nutritional supplement.

Abstract

Cutaneous horn (CH) is an outgrowth from the skin surface, composed of keratin, and associated with benign to malignant skin lesions. We report a case of CH in a 15-year-old female associated with Keratoacanthoma. It is uncommon in young people and is associated with a good prognosis because of its benign nature. This case needs to be reported as it highlights the rare occurrence of this condition in the younger age group and its good prognosis. Surgical excision is the treatment of choice, with histopathologic diagnosis playing a critical role in determining the nature and further treatment of this condition if required.

Abstract

The growing global amount of waste emphasizes the urgency of effective landfill management. The large amount of organic matter in landfill liners undergoes rapid biodegradation, generating significant heat. This heat production can cause various environmental issues, such as the release of volatile organic compounds, an increased risk of groundwater contamination from leachate migration, unpleasant odors, and a reduction in the structural integrity of the landfill liner. Therefore, efficient heat mitigation methods in landfill liners are crucial for minimizing detrimental environmental effects. Utilizing insulation material in landfills can be an effective and novel method in the environmental geotechnical field while promoting material sustainability. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of rockwool as an insulation material in reducing heat transfer inside landfill liners. The effectiveness of rockwool was assessed by using both physical and numerical modelling with varying thicknesses of rockwool, moisture conditions, and elevated temperatures in the landfill liner system. The insulated landfill liner system was simulated numerically using ANSYS software. A wooden box prototype was built to simulate a real-life insulated landfill liner system to evaluate the feasibility of insulation material as a heat mitigation method in landfills. The findings suggest that rockwool is effective in mitigating the heat in landfill liners. Overall, rockwool reduced the elevated temperatures up to 48.45% despite the system being wet which reduces the effectiveness of insulation performance. Comparatively, the 20 mm rockwool was efficient in minimizing average level of elevated temperatures, meanwhile, rockwool with thicknesses of 35 mm and 50 mm were needed to attenuate extremely elevated temperatures. These results were demonstrated through numerical simulation and validated by physical modelling results. It can imply an effective method for mitigating heat in landfill liners, which advances the development of environmental geotechnics for sustainable waste management.

Abstract

Background: Studies show that the Neutrophil Percentage-to-Albumin Ratio (NPAR) predicts mortality in a number of illnesses. On the other hand, there is currently limited clinical support for using NPAR in liver cirrhosis patients. Investigating the associated of NPAR and hospital mortality outcome patients with liver cirrhosis is the goal of this study.Methods: All cirrhosis patients who were admitted to the hospital were included in this retrospective cohort analysis. The percentage of neutrophils and albumin levels on the first day of hospitalization were compared to determine the NPAR. Data were analyzed using the Mann-Whitney test, operating curve (ROC) analysis, and Kaplan-Meier survival curves. P-value 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: This study included 98 patients with liver cirrhosis. It was found that NPAR had a high incidence of patient mortality compared to surviving patients who were hospitalised (35.13 vs. 25.33, p 0.001). The median overall survival for all subjects was 10 days, indicating that 50% of the subjects had died within 10 days. According to ROC analysis, NPAR has an ideal cutoff value of 29.63 and can be utilized as a predictor of in-hospital mortality (sensitivity 74.1%, specificity 72.7%, AUC 0.8, p 0.001). Survival analysis stratified by NPAR showed that patients with NPAR ≥ 29.63 had a lower median survival compared to those with NPAR 29.6.Conclusion: In patients with liver cirrhosis, the Neutrophil Percentage-to-Albumin Ratio (NPAR) is a metric that can be used to assess in-hospital mortality outcomes

Abstract

This investigation is an approach to setup an analytical solution of steady plane allied MHD fluid flow having infinite electrical conductivity in a rotating frame through porous media by Martin’s method. The governing non-linearequations of the fluid flow are transformed into a new form called Martin’s form by employing differential geometry where the curvilinear co-ordinates (Φ, Ψ) in the plane of flow shows that, the co-ordinate lines Ψ are the streamlines of flow and the co-ordinate lines Φ are arbitrary constants. Exact solution is obtained and velocity,vorticity, current density magnetic field and pressure distribution are found out. Also, the diagrams have been plotted to sketch the streamline patterns and to study variation of pressure function with angular velocity.

Abstract

This study aims to explore the effect of Game-Based Learning (GBL) implementation on students' learning motivation in primary schools. GBL is a learning approach that integrates game elements into the teaching and learning process, designed to increase student engagement and motivation. In the context of primary education, learning motivation is an important factor that contributes to students' academic success. The research method used was a pseudo-experiment with a pretest-posttest control group design. The research sample consisted of 80 fourth grade students in one elementary school who were divided into two groups, namely the experimental group using GBL and the control group using conventional learning methods. Data regarding students' learning motivation was collected through a learning motivation questionnaire adapted from a standardized learning motivation scale. The results of the data analysis showed that there was a significant increase in the learning motivation of students using GBL compared to the control group. The average learning motivation score in the experimental group increased significantly after the implementation of GBL, with a p value <0.05. These findings suggest that GBL is effective in increasing students' learning motivation in primary schools. This study suggests that GBL can be integrated into the learning curriculum in primary schools as one of the strategies to increase students' learning motivation. In addition, further research is recommended to explore various other aspects of GBL, such as its impact on students' learning outcomes and social skills.

Abstract

Wireless body area network (WBAN) has emerged as a promising solution to address problems such as population aging, a lack of medical facilities, and different chronic ailments. WBANs have real-time applications, and there is an increasing demand for them. However, due to changing network structure, power supply limitations, and constrained computing capacity, energy constraints, it is difficult task to achieve quality of service (QoS). To mitigate these limitations, the paper proposed an optimal thermo-QoS aware routing protocol (OTQRP) for WBAN communication. The result was investigated in terms of temperature rise, energy consumption and delay. The paper shows better energy efficiency with respect to existing works. Finally, OTQRP feature comparison is also presented with recent research in terms of features such as complexity, latency, and energy economy and observed that OTQRP shows best performance as compared to others.

Abstract

Coprocessors are designed to perform some specific tasks to enhance system performance and speed. Information security is the main focus in internet of thing (IoT), cryptography, and cybersecurity applications. In this work, a coprocessor architecture is designed to generate 4-bits of random data and perform encryption. Coprocessor architecture uses true random number generator (TRNG) and pseudo-random number generator (PRNG) architectures to generate random data. Modified linear feedback shift register (LFSR)-based PRNG and modified transition effect ring oscillator (TERO) and ring oscillator-based TRNG architectures are designed and implemented for performing encryption. A serial-in-parallel-out (SIPO) shift register circuit is used to generate 4-bit random data. A 15-bit instruction word is assigned to coprocessor architecture to perform its task. The coprocessor architecture is designed using VHSIC Hardware Description Language (VHDL) and implemented on an Artix-7 field programmable gate array (FPGA). All simulation and synthesis results of the proposed coprocessor architecture are obtained by the Xilinx Vivado 2015.2 tool. Coprocessor architecture efficiency (throughput (Mbps)/LUTs) is 2.31, and it operates at a 100 MHz clock.
