Intelligent two-phase dual authentication framework for Internet of Medical Things.

The Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) has revolutionized healthcare by bringing real-time monitoring and data-driven treatments. Nevertheless, the security of communication between IoMT devices and servers remains a huge problem because of the inherent sensitivity of the health data and susceptibility to cyber threats. Current security solutions, including simple password-based authentication and standard Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) approaches, typically do not achieve an appropriate balance between security and low computational overhead, resulting in the possibility of performance bottlenecks and increased vulnerability to attacks.

A novel and efficient digital image steganography technique using least significant bit substitution.

Steganography is used to hide sensitive types of data including images, audio, text, and videos in an invisible way so that no one can detect it. Image-based steganography is a technique that uses images as a cover media for hiding and transmitting sensitive information over the internet. However, image-based steganography is a challenging task due to transparency, security, computational efficiency, tamper protection, payload, etc.

An unusual case of splenic hydatid cyst perforating into posterior wall of stomach.

Hydatid disease (cystic echinococcosis) is a parasitic infection caused by . Hydatid cysts are typically found in the liver and lungs, but they can also rarely occur in the spleen. This case report describes an unusual occurrence of a splenic hydatid cyst that perforated the posterior wall of the stomach.

A Dynamic Trust evaluation and update model using advance decision tree for underwater Wireless Sensor Networks.

Underwater wireless sensor networks (UWSNs) are an emerging research area that is rapidly gaining popularity. However, it has several challenges, including security, node mobility, limited bandwidth, and high error rates. Traditional trust models fail to adapt to the dynamic underwater environment.

An Era of CRISPR/ Cas9 Mediated Plant Genome Editing.

Recently the engineered nucleases have revolutionized genome editing to perturb gene expression at specific sites in complex eukaryotic genomes. Three important classes of these genome editing tools are Moreover, the more recent type II Clustered Regularly Inter-spaced Short Palindromic Repeats/Crispr associated protein (CRISPR/Cas9) system has become the most favorite plant genome editing tool for its precision and RNA based specificity unlike its counterparts which rely on protein based specificity. Plasmid-mediated co-delivery of multiple sgRNAs and Cas9 to the Plant cell can simultaneously alter more than one target loci which enable multiplex genome editing.

Chilling tolerance in three tomato transgenic lines overexpressing CBF3 gene controlled by a stress inducible promoter.

Plants integrate and monitor low temperature signals to cope with the continual variations in their environment. Arabidopsis thaliana cold responsive-element binding factor 3 (AtCBF3) plays its role in various cellular activities by modulating multiple genes induced under chilling stress. In this work, AtCBF3 transcription was remarkably induced following chilling stress.
