Parkinson's disease (PD), the second most prevalent neurodegenerative disorder, is projected to see a significant rise in incidence over the next three decades. The precise treatment of PD remains a formidable challenge, prompting ongoing research into early diagnostic methodologies. Network pharmacology, a burgeoning field grounded in systems biology, examines the intricate networks of biological systems to identify critical signal nodes, facilitating the development of multi-target therapeutic molecules.

Virtual screening is the most widely used method in computer aided drug discovery. It has a prominent ability in screening drug targets from large molecular databases.

However, its ability to predict subsequent transfusions has remained mostly controversial.
Objectives: To assess if there is a need to change the threshold of MCA-PSV from 1.
Introduction: Twin reversed arterial perfusion (TRAP) sequence is a phenomenon seen in 1-3% of monochorionic twin pregnancies, where the acardiac fetus is found to have multiple anomalies. The normal pump twin maintains its own perfusion in addition to that of its acardiac co-twin. As a result, if the acardiac twin increases in size, the burden on the pump twin is increased, leading to cardiac failure, hydrops fetalis, polyhydramnios, premature delivery, and perinatal death.

In this study, liquefaction of Chlorella vulgaris biomass grown in photo-bioreactor using wastewater as source of nutrition was studied and influence of process parameters on the yield of bio-oil was analysed. Different biomass to water ratio (5g/200ml, 10g/200ml, 15g/200ml, and 20g/200ml) was taken and bio-oil yield at various temperatures ranging from 220 to 340°C was studied. Catalyst loading of the range 2.
