VISAL-A novel learning strategy to address class imbalance.

In the imbalance data scenarios, Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) fail to generalize well on minority classes. In this letter, we propose a simple and effective learning function i.e, Visually Interpretable Space Adjustment Learning (VISAL) to handle the imbalanced data classification task.

Certain patterns of zinc, copper, and lead redistribution across the structural fractions of Chernozems and Urbic Technosols.

The purpose of this work was to study the patterns of Zn, Cu, and Pb distribution in soil aggregates of various size fractions. Materials were Calcic Chernozems and Urbic Technosol of the Rostov agglomeration. Soil samples were passed through sieves with different mesh sizes (dry sieving).

Synergistic effect of p53 gene/DOX intracellular delivery and P-gp inhibition by pullulan thiomers on cancer cells: and evaluations.

Numerous reports emphasize the inverse relationship between the mutant p53 protein and P-glycoprotein overexpression, which adversely affects the chemosensitivity of cancer cells. In this study, the cationised pullulan polysaccharide was conjugated with dithiobutyric acid (PPDBA) for the intracellular delivery of doxorubicin and the p53 gene. The transfection efficiency of PPDBA using the apoptotic gene p53 and its ability to modulate efflux pumps in the presence and absence of glutathione and the subsequent drug retention were studied in different cell lines.

Solitary Dermal Cylindroma in an Uncommon Site: A Rare Case Report.

Cylindroma, a benign skin appendage tumor, mostly occurs in the head and neck region. They present as pink to purple, smooth-surfaced, solitary or multiple nodular lesions, mostly affecting middle-aged and elderly women. A clinical diagnosis of cylindroma is unusual but must be considered clinically.

Extraction of iron from laterite soil and green synthesis of laterite nano iron catalyst (GLaNICs) for its application as Fenton's catalyst in the degradation of triclosan.

Laterite based nano iron particles were synthesized using natural laterite extract as a precursor and Psidium guajava plant extract for its application as Fenton's catalyst in the degradation of triclosan. Chemical digestion method was used for the extraction of iron from laterite soil. Synthesized nano iron catalyst was characterized using SEM-EDS, XRD and FTIR and evaluated for its catalytic application in the Fenton's oxidation of triclosan.
