The deadly corona virus continues to pound the globe mercilessly compelling mathematical models and computational simulations which might prove effective tools to enable global efforts to estimate key transmission parameters involved in the system. We propose a mathematical model using a set of non-linear differential equations to account for the spread of the COVID-19 infection with special compartment class isolation or quarantine and estimate the model parameters by fitting the model with reported data of the ongoing pandemic situation in India. The basic reproduction number is defined and local stability analysis is carried out at each equilibrium point in terms of the reproduction number . The model is fitted mathematically and makes the data India specific. Additionally, we examined sensitivity analysis of the model. These outcomes recommend how to control the spread of corona, keeping in mind contact and recovery rate. Also we have investigated the elasticity of the basic reproduction number as a measure of control parameters of the dynamical system. Numerical simulations were also done to show that the proposed model is valid for the type and spread of the outbreak which happened in India.

Background: The function of some testis-specific genes (TSGs) in model insects have been studied, but their function in non-model insects remains largely unexplored. In the present study, we identified several TSGs in the fall armyworm (FAW), a significant agricultural pest, through comparative transcriptomic analysis. A testis-specific gene cluster (TSGC) comprising multiple functional genes and long non-coding RNAs was found.

Study Question: How accurately can artificial intelligence (AI) models predict sperm retrieval in non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA) patients undergoing micro-testicular sperm extraction (m-TESE) surgery?
Summary Answer: AI predictive models hold significant promise in predicting successful sperm retrieval in NOA patients undergoing m-TESE, although limitations regarding variability of study designs, small sample sizes, and a lack of validation studies restrict the overall generalizability of studies in this area.
What Is Known Already: Previous studies have explored various predictors of successful sperm retrieval in m-TESE, including clinical and hormonal factors. However, no consistent predictive model has yet been established.

Introduction: Despite Ethiopia's best efforts, the physical, psychological, social, and environmental aspects of quality of life among patients with cardiovascular illnesses such as hypertension have not received adequate consideration. The quality of life among patients with cardiovascular diseases in Ethiopia has not been thoroughly examined; therefore, this study aimed to assess the prevalence and factors associated with health-related quality of life among patients with cardiovascular diseases.
Methods: The results of this systematic review and meta-analysis were reported in accordance with the International Recommended Reporting items for Systematic Review and Meta-analysis guidelines.

Introduction: The polyspermy rate is a quality control indicator in the embryology laboratory, and factors affecting polyspermy are of great interest. The gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) antagonist protocol is currently the mainstream protocol in most reproductive centers. This study explored the factors influencing polyspermy in fertilization (IVF) using the GnRH antagonist protocol and considered corresponding improvement measures.

Non-indigenous dung beetle (Coleoptera: Scarabaeoidea) species in North America are important contributors to ecosystem functions, particularly in pasture-based livestock systems. Despite the significant body of research surrounding non-indigenous (and often invasive) dung beetles in agricultural contexts, there has been minimal study concerning the impact that these species may have on indigenous dung beetle populations in natural environments. Here we examine the possible impact of the introduced dung beetle on indigenous dung beetle populations via use of indigenous mammal dung.
