Non-destructive color sensors are widely applied for rapid analysis of various biological and healthcare point-of-care applications. However, existing red, green, blue (RGB)-based color sensor systems, relying on the conversion to human-perceptible color spaces like hue, saturation, lightness (HSL), hue, saturation, value (HSV), as well as cyan, magenta, yellow, key (CMYK) and the CIE L*a*b* (CIELAB) exhibit limitations compared to spectroscopic methods. The integration of machine learning (ML) techniques presents an opportunity to enhance data analysis and interpretation, enabling insights discovery, prediction, process automation, and decision-making.

Silver nitroprusside complex nanoparticles (AgN NPs) have garnered significant attention for their antimicrobial properties. However, challenges such as toxicity and limited biocompatibility often hinder their practical applications. Therefore, this study introduces a combined approach to fabricating AgN NPs with chitosan (CS), resulting in CS-AgN nanocomposites (CS-AgN NCs) with cytocompatibility.

Follicular lymphoma (FL) is a gradually progressing type of B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), distinguished by its characteristic follicular pattern of growth and a typically indolent clinical course. It is identified by the abnormal growth of B-cells in the lymph nodes. We report a case of a 45-year-old female who came up with complaints of heavy menstrual bleeding and easy fatiguability.

Introduction Breast cancer is a significant health concern in India, representing a large portion of all cancers affecting women and ranking as one of the most common cancers overall. Reliable diagnostic tools are essential for accurately predicting malignancy and reducing the need for unnecessary biopsies. A Breast Imaging Reporting and Database System (BI-RADS) 3 designation suggests a low likelihood of cancer, indicating that findings are likely benign.

The disturbances in thyroid hormones lead to altered brain metabolism, function, and cognition. Neuroimaging studies have shown structural and functional changes in hypothyroidism. Present study investigates the neuro-metabolite changes in dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) and posterior parietal cortex (PPC) and associated decline cognitive function in hypothyroid patients before and after thyroxine treatment.
