Attention mechanisms such as the Convolutional Block Attention Module (CBAM) can help emphasize and refine the most relevant feature maps such as color, texture, spots, and wrinkle variations for the avocado ripeness classification. However, the CBAM lacks global context awareness, which may prevent it from capturing long-range dependencies or global patterns such as relationships between distant regions in the image. Further, more complex neural networks can improve model performance but at the cost of increasing the number of layers and train parameters, which may not be suitable for resource constrained devices.

This case highlights that refractory pancytopenia leading to death can occur with methimazole treatment even at a very low cumulative dose and after a very short duration of exposure. In addition, the standard treatments to correct the pancytopenia may not be effective and a bone marrow transplant may be required. Current American Thyroid Association guidelines do not recommend routine monitoring of the complete blood count in patients receiving thionamides because of the rapidity of the onset of agranulocytosis and the lack of positive evidence that such monitoring would be useful.

A middle childhood boy with epilepsy exhibited persistent low concentrations of valproic acid, lamotrigine and topiramate for over 1 month, primarily due to pharmacokinetic interactions involving fosphenytoin, meropenem and phenobarbital. Awareness of these clinically significant interactions is crucial for ensuring effective seizure control. However, further research is needed to establish optimal evidence-based treatment strategies in complex paediatric cases.
