Rabies is a neglected zoonotic disease caused by a virus. It is an acute progressive neurological disease that affects people in many parts of the world, especially in low income countries including Somalia and it is always lethal once symptoms appear without immediate post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP). Nearly half of rabies cases occur in children. This case report presents a tragic and unique clinical scenario involving a 14-year-old boy from a rural area in Somalia who presented to our tertiary hospital after a bite from a honey badger. The patient's younger sister, who was also bitten by the same honey badger, sadly succumbed to the disease two weeks prior. This report aims to contribute to the medical literature by highlighting the challenges faced in diagnosing and managing rabies in resource-constrained settings.

Cancer, a pervasive and devastating disease, remains a leading global cause of mortality, emphasizing the growing urgency for effective detection methods. Gene Expression Microarray (GEM) data has emerged as a crucial tool in this context, offering insights into early cancer detection and treatment. While deep learning methods offer promise in detecting various cancers through GEM analysis, they suffer from high dimensionality inherent in gene sequences, preventing optimal detection performance across diverse cancer types.

This study introduces three soft computing (SC) optimization algorithms aimed at enhancing the efficiency of photovoltaic water pumping systems (PVWPS). These algorithms include the Gorilla Troop Algorithm (GTO), Honey Badger Algorithm (HBA), and Snake Algorithm (SAO). The goal of the SC optimizers is to maximize the output power of the PV array (P) and enhance the efficiency of the DC motor (η), thereby optimizing the water flow rate (Q) of the pumping system.

Solar photovoltaic (PV) cell modeling is crucial to understanding and optimizing solar energy systems. While the single-diode model (PVSDM) is commonly used, the double-diode model (PVDDM) offers improved accuracy at a reasonable level of complexity. However, finding analytical closed-form solutions for the current-voltage (I-U) dependency in PVDDM circuits has remained a challenge.

The global surge in electric vehicle (EV) adoption has driven significant research into electric vehicle charging stations (EVCS) due to their environmentally friendly attributes, including low CO₂ emissions. However, integrating EVCS into existing distribution grids presents challenges such as power losses and voltage instability, especially with the increasing incorporation of renewable distributed generation (RDG) sources and battery energy storage systems (BESS). This study introduces a novel honey badger optimization algorithm (HBOA), designed to enhance solution convergence and optimize multi-objective criteria efficiently.
