Integrating machine learning and remote sensing for long-term monitoring of chlorophyll-a in Chilika Lagoon, India.

Chlorophyll-a (Chla) is recognized as a key indicator of water quality and ecological health in aquatic ecosystems, offering valuable insights into ecosystem dynamics and changes over time. This study aimed to to develop and validate a robust ML model for estimating Chla using Landsat data, produce a time series of Chl a maps, and analyze the spatiotemporal variability of Chla in Chilika Lagoon, Asia's largest brackish water lagoon. Nine ML regression models, including Extreme Gradient Boost, Support Vector Regression, Random Forest, and Bagging Regression, were evaluated using Landsat imagery and field data.

Modulation of oxidative stress/NMDA/nitric oxide pathway by topiramate attenuates morphine dependence in mice.

Morphine belongs to the class of opioids and is known for its potential to cause dependence and addiction, particularly with prolonged use. Due to the associated risks, caution must be taken when prescribing and limiting its clinical use. Overexpression of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors, nitric oxide and cGMP pathway has been implicated in exacerbate the development of morphine dependence and withdrawal.

Atrial Fibrillation in Patients with Breast Cancer: A Literature Review.

In addition to traditional risk factors, patients with breast cancer are at an increased risk of atrial fibrillation due to cancer itself and certain cancer therapies. Atrial fibrillation in these patients adds to their morbidity and mortality. The precise mechanisms leading to the increased atrial fibrillation in patients with breast cancer are not well understood.

Enhanced recovery after surgery in Pakistan: a qualitative descriptive analysis of current practices and future directions.

Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) is a cost-effective perioperative approach that has been shown to shorten patients' hospital length of stay, improve resource utilization, and reduce postoperative costs for both patients and hospitals. While ERAS has the potential to offer even greater benefits in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) its successful long-term implementation remains incomplete in Pakistan. This study aimed to explore insights and identify opportunities for implementing ERAS within the local socio-environmental context.
