Background: Lamin A/C gene (LMNA) mutations cause myocardial fibrosis manifesting as arrhythmogenic, non-compaction, or dilated cardiomyopathies. Fibro-fatty replacement largely involves the conduction system and conduction disease commonly occurs prior to contractile dysfunction.

Case Summary: Two young, unrelated Caucasian males, aged 34 and 25, were referred to our centre for treatment of advanced heart failure.

This work aims to provide an effective hybrid beam forming method with Dual-Deep-Network to overcome overhead for mm-wave massive MIMO systems. In this paper, a Dual-Deep-Network technique is described for the extraction of statistical structures from a hybrid beam forming model based on mmWave logics, as well as training logic for the network map functions. The proposed approach of DDN is trained with proper data sequences used for communication and the training phase is conducted with the norms of numerous channel variants.

Recurrent cryptogenic embolic strokes pose a diagnostic challenge, often necessitating an extensive evaluation to determine the underlying cause. Cancer-related stroke is a frequently overlooked etiology, accounting for a substantial proportion of cryptogenic strokes. This case study underscores the importance of considering occult malignancies in patients with recurrent strokes of unknown origin and emphasizes the need for a comprehensive diagnostic workup to detect hidden malignancies.

The implementation of different pretreatment techniques and technologies prior to effluent discharge is a direct result of the inefficiency of several existing wastewater treatment methods. A majority of the industrial sectors have known to cause severe negative effects on the environment. The five major polluting industries are the paper and pulp mills, coal manufacturing facilities, petrochemical, textile and the pharmaceutical sectors.

Pollution by heavy metals has been identified as a global threat since the inception of industrial revolution. Heavy metal contamination induces serious health and environmental hazards due to its toxic nature. Remediation of heavy metals by conventional methods is uneconomical and generates a large quantity of secondary wastes.

Microfouling is evolving at a fast rate causing augmented mortality rates and damage worldwide. Until now, several remedial measures have been exploited to overcome microfouling, amongst them nanoparticles play a superior role. Currently, green synthesized nanoparticles have been centered owing to its eco-friendly, cost effectively and non-toxic nature which has also increased its industrial applications (biomedicine, food and textile).

Of the various methods explored for the synthesis of nanoparticles, biogenesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) received great attention due to their versatile properties. In this report, Daucus carota extract was used for the synthesis of AgNPs and ceftriaxone was conjugated with AgNPs to enhance their antimicrobial efficacy. The conjugated and unconjugated AgNPs were characterized by adopting UV-Vis spectroscopy, FTIR, AFM, DLS, and TEM, which revealed the SPR peak at 420 nm and spherical shaped nanoparticles of 20 nm size, respectively.
