In recent times, video inpainting techniques have intended to fill the missing areas or gaps in a video by utilizing known pixels. The variety in brightness or difference of the patches causes the state-of-the-art video inpainting techniques to exhibit high computation complexity and create seams in the target areas. To resolve these issues, this paper introduces a novel video inpainting technique that employs the Morphological Haar Wavelet Transform combined with the Krill Herd based Criminisi algorithm (MHWT-KHCA) to address the challenges of high computational demand and visible seam artifacts in current inpainting practices.

Article Synopsis
  • A study was conducted to estimate the seroprevalence of chikungunya virus (CHIKV) across different age groups in India, aiming to understand the infection rates in various regions since the virus re-emerged in 2005.
  • The research involved a cross-sectional serosurvey with 17,930 randomly selected individuals, focusing on three age groups (5-8, 9-17, and 18-45 years) and testing for IgG antibodies against CHIKV.
  • Findings showed an overall seroprevalence of 18.1%, with the highest prevalence in the southern region (43.1%) and the lowest in the northeast (0.3%), indicating significant age and regional differences in

Background: The burden of dengue virus (DENV) infection across geographical regions of India is poorly quantified. We estimated the age-specific seroprevalence, force of infection, and number of infections in India.

Methods: We did a community-based survey in 240 clusters (118 rural, 122 urban), selected from 60 districts of 15 Indian states from five geographical regions.

Article Synopsis
  • Pregnancy induces physiological changes that increase the risk of rapid desaturation in mothers, which can endanger both the mother and fetus during intubation.
  • The All India Difficult Airway Association (AIDAA) outlines a structured plan for safely managing airways in pregnant patients, combining evidence and expert consensus.
  • Key recommendations include maintaining maternal oxygen levels, using gentle positive pressure ventilation during intubation, and having a clear protocol for handling failed intubation, including the use of advanced airway devices and emergency procedures.

In recent years there has been a substantial increase in the use of functional foods for disease control. Fruits and vegetables produce phytochemicals such as flavonoids and antioxidants which can lower oxidative stress and reduce the risk of chronic ailments like cancer. The aim of the present study was to investigate the antioxidant capacity and the possible protective effects of Amaranthus paniculatus leaves on the antioxidant defense system in Ehrlich's ascites carcinoma (EAC) -treated mice.
