Energy efficient group priority MAC protocol using hybrid Q-learning honey Badger Algorithm (QL-HBA) for IoT Networks.

In Internet of Things (IoT) networks, identifying the primary Medium Access Control (MAC) layer protocol which is suited for a service characteristic is necessary based on the requirements of the application. In this paper, we propose Energy Efficient and Group Priority MAC (EEGP-MAC) protocol using Hybrid Q-Learning Honey Badger Algorithm (QL-HBA) for IoT Networks. This algorithm employs reinforcement agents to select an environment based on predefined actions and tasks.

Alterations of endocannabinoid signaling and microglia reactivity in the retinas of AD-like mice precede the onset of hippocampal β-amyloid plaques.

Extra-cerebral manifestations of Alzheimer's disease (AD) develop in the retina, which is, therefore, considered a "window to the brain". Recent studies demonstrated the dysregulation of the endocannabinoid (eCB) system (ECS) in AD brain. Here, we explored the possible alterations of ECS and the onset of gliosis in the retina of AD-like mice.

Protective role of 2-aminothiazole derivative against ethanol-induced teratogenic effects in-vivo zebrafish.

Teratology investigates the origins of congenital disabilities, often linked to environmental factors such as ethanol (EtOH) exposure. Ethanol at 150 μM has been associated with teratogenic effects, oxidative stress, immunological responses, and endocrine disruptions. Fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD) arises from maternal alcohol consumption during pregnancy, leading to developmental delays and cognitive impairment.

Efficacy of indocyanine green fluoroscopy for sentinel node biopsy in head and neck melanoma: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

The objective of this review was to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis on the efficacy of ICG (indocyanine green) for sentinel lymph node (SLN) detection in head and neck melanoma. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses statement standards (PRISMA) were followed when conducting this review with a comprehensive search of the following online databases; Google Scholar, PubMed, MEDLINE, CINAHL, and CENTRAL, World Health Organization International Clinical Trials Registry (http://apps.who.

Ten missteps in the management of inflammatory bowel disease in Asia: An expert report by the Asian Pacific Association of Gastroenterology Working Group on Inflammatory Bowel Disease.

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is rapidly emerging in the Asia Pacific region. However, there are many challenges in the diagnosis and management of this condition. The Asian Pacific Association of Gastroenterology (APAGE) Working Group on IBD conducted a round table meeting to identify 10 common mistakes in the management of IBD in Asia.
