On QSPR analysis of glaucoma drugs using machine learning with XGBoost and regression models.

Glaucoma is an irreversible, progressive, degenerative eye disorder arising because of increased intraocular pressure, resulting in eventual vision loss if untreated. The QSPR relates, mathematically, by employing various algorithms, a specified property of a molecule that arises either from physical, chemical, or biological phenomena using various aspects of its structure. Here in, a similar application based on topological indices and inferences derived from the structure for the calculation of different drug properties like molar refractivity, refractive index, enthalpy, boiling points, molecular weight, and polarizability is presented.

Organic manure and fertilizer N management strategies improve soil health at different growth stages of pearl millet under pearl millet-wheat sequence.

Background: Incorporating organic manure improves soil properties and crop productivity. A long-term study started in October 1967 examined the effects of farmyard manure and nitrogen fertilization on the soil at key growth stages of pearl millet in a pearl millet-wheat cropping system over its 51st cycle.

Results: Applying 15 Mg of farmyard manure (FYM) per hectare in both growing seasons significantly boosted soil organic carbon (SOC), dissolved organic carbon (DOC), and key nutrients compared to one-season application.

Commentary on "preoperative cardiology consultations for geriatric patients with hip fractures rarely provide additional recommendations and are associated with prolonged hospital stays and delayed surgery: a retrospective case control study".

This letter discusses the recent study by Vahabi et al., which examined the role of preoperative cardiology consultations in geriatric patients undergoing hip fracture surgery. While the study highlights the limited impact of these consultations on treatment modifications and the associated delays in surgical intervention, this letter suggests areas for further exploration.

Regulation of anaplerotic enzymes by melatonin enhances resilience to cadmium toxicity in Vigna radiata (L.) R. Wilczek.

Melatonin (Mel) is a tryptophan-derived (N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine) molecule. In the present study, role of Mel in the regulation of various anaplerotic enzymes is discussed in relation to N metabolism and H-ATPase activity in mung bean under Cd stress. The application of Mel to the Cd-stressed mung bean seedlings was remarkable in improving the activity of hexokinase (35.
