Surgery and minimally invasive treatments for uterine fibroids.

This is a protocol for a Cochrane Review (intervention). The objectives are as follows: To assess the effects of surgery and minimally invasive treatments for uterine fibroids.

Dietary purslane (Portulaca oleracea L.) leaf powder maintains growth and intestinal health in Oreochromis niloticus under chronic water-borne cadmium exposure by strengthening the gut barriers, modulating the intestinal nutrient transporters, and relieving oxidative stress.

High cadmium (Cd) concentrations pose a threat to aquatic life globally. This study examined the efficiency of adding purslane (Portulaca oleracea L.) leaf powder (PLP) to Oreochromis niloticus diets on Cd's negative effects.

Potential mutagenicity of aflatoxin B1 in Egyptian spices.

The current study aimed to detect the mutagenic impacts of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), which is produced by Aspergillus group fungi, via a high-plant genotoxicity test. Different durations of treatment (3 h, 6 h, and 12 h) were used to treat the Vicia faba root tips with varying concentrations of Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) following the approved protocol for plant assays published by the International Program on Chemical Safety (IPCS) and the World Health Organization (WHO). The data obtained indicated that AFB1 not only has the ability to induce various alterations in the process of mitosis, ranging from increasing to decreasing mitotic and phase indices but also leads to many mitotic aberrations.

Reinforcement learning algorithm for improving speed response of a five-phase permanent magnet synchronous motor based model predictive control.

Enhancing the performance of 5ph-IPMSM control plays a crucial role in advancing various innovative applications such as electric vehicles. This paper proposes a new reinforcement learning (RL) control algorithm based twin-delayed deep deterministic policy gradient (TD3) algorithm to tune two cascaded PI controllers in a five-phase interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (5ph-IPMSM) drive system based model predictive control (MPC). The main purpose of the control methodology is to optimize the 5ph-IPMSM speed response either in constant torque region or constant power region.

Integrated biological-chemical system for phenol removal from petrochemicals wastewater.

Phenol is a highly concerning pollutant in petrochemical industrial wastewater. It is extremely poisonous, carcinogenic, and persistent, therefore, it bioaccumulates in the food chain reaching humans, where it causes acute irritation to the skin, eyes, and respiratory tract, as well as chronic effects on the liver, kidneys, and nervous system. It spills or leaks easily into surface water or groundwater sources, leading to the creation of other harmful substituted compounds.
