Abstract

This study focused on time series forecasting of the yearly volume of cashew nut production in the Southern Agricultural Zone of Tanzania. This study aimed to predict the trend of cashew nut production in the Southern Agricultural Zone of Tanzania in metric tonnes and to forecast cashew nut production in the Southern Agricultural Zone of Tanzania from 2022 to 2026. The study adopted time series analytical methods. Annual secondary data of 32 years from 1989 to 2021 were collected from the Cashew nut Board of Tanzania, Data given were tested for stationarity before being modeled for forecasting. Time series analytical techniques particularly regression and Box-Jenkins (ARIMA) models were applied for modeling cashew nut production. Akaike's Information Criterion was applied in the ARIMA model selection. The study concluded that there was an increasing trend for cashew nut production if other factors remained constant. Also, the study concluded that ARIMA (0,1,1) was the best forecasting model for cashew nut production in the Southern Agricultural Zone of Tanzania. The value of the best Akaike Information Criterion (AIC) is 358.55. The study recommended that based on the expected increase of cashew nut production in the Southern Agricultural Zone of Tanzania, Tanzania needs to ensure that domestic markets and industries are protected to ensure equilibrium and any excess to be traded in foreign in the long run-in production of cash nut.

Abstract

The practice of Ramadan fasting, as intermittent fasting, is growing in popularity because of its ability to prevent cancer development. The practice of fasting allows patients to experience multiple changes at metabolic, physiological, and epigenetic levels, which reduce cancer advancement and better their response to treatment. The study performs a systematic review of published studies to explore protective mechanisms within this investigation about assurance of scientific integrity and transparency. The authors have implemented the standards included in the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA). The research demonstrates how fasting metabolism affects ketone body production while reducing glucose availability and simultaneously lowering both insulin and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) levels. Proliferation control of cancer cells depends heavily on these three regulatory factors. The DNA damage response (DSR) becomes more effective while cellular homeostasis maintains itself because fasting-induced autophagy accomplishes both cellular component elimination and defective cellular component clearance. The reduction of oxidative stress caused by fasting leads to constrained development of malignant cell transformations and protects against DNA. The epigenetic effects of fasting during Ramadan result in non-coding RNA regulation, together with DNA methylation and histone remodeling processes to turn on beneficial tumor suppressor genes and deactivate cancer-causing oncogenes. The latest research supports the potential role of fasting as an additional form of care for fighting and stopping cancer development. These findings lead to major impacts on clinical applications and dietary remedies, and public health policy within integrative cancer treatment.
