Global Analysis of RTS, S/AS01 Malaria Vaccine Acceptance Rates and Influencing Factors: A Systematic Review.

Malaria remains a significant global health challenge, with Plasmodium parasites transmitted by Anopheles mosquitoes causing substantial morbidity and mortality. Despite historical efforts, malaria continues to affect millions worldwide, particularly in tropical regions. This systematic review aimed to assess the acceptability of the RTS, S/AS01 malaria vaccine among diverse populations.

Compliance With Percutaneous Endoscopic Gastrostomy Tube Insertion Guidelines and Associated Complications in a Tertiary Care Setting: A Clinical Audit.

Introduction: Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) tube insertion is a widely utilized enteral access technique offering long-term nutritional support for patients unable to tolerate oral intake. While the PEG tube provides numerous advantages, adherence to evidence-based guidelines is crucial to minimize complications. This study aims to evaluate adherence to PEG tube insertion guidelines and analyze associated complication rates in a tertiary care setting.

Investigation of optimum minimum segment width on VMAT plan quality and deliverability: A comprehensive dosimetric and clinical evaluation using DVH analysis.

Purpose: Minimum segment width (MSW) plays a fundamental role in the shaping of optimized apertures and creation of segments of varying sizes and shapes in complex radiotherapy treatment plans. The purpose of this work was to study the effect of MSW on dose distribution in patients planned with VMAT for various treatment sites using dose volume histogram (DVH) analysis.

Materials And Methods: For the validation of optimum MSW, 125 clinical treatment plans were evaluated.

Adsorption of Indigo Carmine dye onto the surface-modified adsorbent prepared from municipal waste and simulation using deep neural network.

A new adsorbent was prepared from municipal wastes (a mixture of Corn Stover, Paper Waste, and Yard Waste) by cationization with 3 ̶ Chloro ̶ 2 ̶ Hydroxypropyl Trimethylammonium Chloride. The FTIR spectrum confirmed the quaternary ammonium group's presence on the adsorbent surface (1450 cm). The maximum adsorption capacity (148 mg/g) was higher than the earlier reported values.

Usefulness of Mean Platelet Volume to Predict Significant Coronary Artery Disease in Patients With Non-ST-Elevation Acute Coronary Syndromes.

Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is characterized by unstable plaque with thrombotic process involving central role of platelets. The diagnosis and prediction of significant coronary artery disease (CAD) in non-ST-elevation ACS (NSTE-ACS) can be challenging. The central role of platelets in acute atherothrombosis in NSTE-ACS spurred appreciable interest in the diagnostic and predictive role of platelet activity.
