In recent times, there has been rapid growth of technologies that have enabled smart infrastructures-IoT-powered smart grids, cities, and healthcare systems. But these resource-constrained IoT devices cannot be protected by existing security mechanisms against emerging cyber threats. The aim of the paper is to present an improved security for smart healthcare IoT systems by developing an architecture for IADCL.

Herein, the photophysical, photochemical properties and photogenerated excited state dynamics of two new Ru(II) complexes, viz. [Ru(p-ttp)(bpy)(PTA)]2+ [1]2+, [Ru(p-ttp)(phen)(PTA)]2+ [2]2+ having a phosphorus-based ligand PTA [p-ttp = p-tolyl terpyridine; bpy = 2,2'-bipyridyl; phen = 1,10-phenthroline and PTA = 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane] are reported. Upon excitation with 470 nm LED, [1]2+ and [2]2+ neither undergo ligand release nor exhibit room temperature luminescence/1O2 generation.

Human brain tissue studies have used a range of metrics to assess RNA quality but there are few large-scale cross-comparisons of presequencing quality metrics with RNA-seq quality. We analyzed how postmortem interval (PMI) and RNA integrity number (RIN) before RNA-seq relate to RNA quality after sequencing (percent of counts in top 10 genes [PTT], 5' bias, and 3' bias), and with individual gene counts across the transcriptome. We analyzed 4 human cerebrocortical tissue sets (1 surgical, 3 autopsy), sequenced with varying protocols.

Objective This study aimed to evaluate the role of 2-Deoxy-D-Glucose (2-DG) in moderate to severe Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) cases. Methodology This study retrospectively analyzed the effects of 2-DG alongside Standard of Care (SOC) for moderate to severe COVID-19 in 150 patients. Eligible patients were aged 18-65, with confirmed COVID-19, who met clinical criteria for moderate or severe illness.

The present study aimed to establish the feasibility of the wastewater treatment process generated from an oleaginous fermentation plant. Treatment of spent fermentation broth (SFB) poses significant environmental challenges due to its high organic load, recalcitrant compounds, and potential toxicity. The synergistic effects of combining ozone-based advanced oxidation process (O-AOP) with biological treatment for the efficient degradation of pollutants in spent fermentation broth.
