Article Synopsis
  • Lymphangitic carcinomatosis (LC) is a serious condition often seen in advanced metastatic cancers, especially affecting the lungs, and presents symptoms like coughing and difficulty breathing.
  • A 70-year-old man with generally good health experienced a persistent dry cough and other symptoms, leading to a diagnosis of Stage 4 prostate cancer with rare lung involvement.
  • Imaging and biopsy confirmed the diagnosis, raising concerns for LC, which prompted urgent chemotherapy, highlighting the rarity of this condition in prostate cancer and its poor prognosis.

Background: Tuberculosis (TB) is caused due to the infection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) and it can infect the various parts of the human body. The disease is highly prevalent and is the second most common cause of death worldwide after COVID-19. Apart from sputum specimen, it is exceedingly difficult to diagnose due to its paucibacillary nature.

Supercritical water gasification (SCWG) of lignocellulosic biomass is a promising pathway for the production of hydrogen. However, SCWG is a complex thermochemical process, the modeling of which is challenging via conventional methodologies. Therefore, eight machine learning models (linear regression (LR), Gaussian process regression (GPR), artificial neural network (ANN), support vector machine (SVM), decision tree (DT), random forest (RF), extreme gradient boosting (XGB), and categorical boosting regressor (CatBoost)) with particle swarm optimization (PSO) and a genetic algorithm (GA) optimizer were developed and evaluated for prediction of H, CO, CO, and CH gas yields from SCWG of lignocellulosic biomass.
