Article Synopsis
  • - The Asian Indian Beta Cell function (ABCs) in Infants Study focused on how maternal weight during pregnancy impacts infant pancreatic beta cell function at 7 months after childbirth, recruiting women of different BMI categories in Hyderabad, India.
  • - Infants underwent an oral glucose tolerance test, revealing a U-shaped relationship between maternal weight and beta cell function, with greater function observed in infants of underweight and normal weight mothers compared to those of overweight mothers.
  • - At 7 months, infants displayed significant changes in insulin resistance based on maternal weight, with the highest insulin resistance reduction in infants of underweight mothers, while those from normal weight mothers had the highest disposition index, indicating better beta cell function.

A drop in physical activity and a deterioration in the capacity to undertake daily life activities are both connected with ageing and have negative effects on physical and mental health. An Elderly and Visually Impaired Human Activity Monitoring (EV-HAM) system that keeps tabs on a person's routine and steps in if a change in behaviour or a crisis might greatly help an elderly person or a visually impaired. These individuals may find greater freedom with the help of an EVHAM system.

Computing intelligence is built on several learning and optimization techniques. Incorporating cutting-edge learning techniques to balance the interaction between exploitation and exploration is therefore an inspiring field, especially when it is combined with IoT. The reinforcement learning techniques created in recent years have largely focused on incorporating deep learning technology to improve the generalization skills of the algorithm while ignoring the issue of detecting and taking full advantage of the dilemma.

Parasporins of Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) exhibit specific toxicity to cancer cells. PCR based mining has identified apoptosis inducing parasporin in KAU41 Bt isolate from the Western Ghats of India. The study aimed to clone and overexpress the parasporin of native KAU41 Bt isolate for determining structural and functional characteristics of the protein.
