A complex fuzzy decision model for analysing the post-pandemic immuno-sustainability.

The post-effects of the COronaVIrus Disease (COVID-19) vary depending on socioeconomic and biological factors. Similarly, the effects of vaccination on people's immunity vary across several factors. After the pandemic, real-life post-vaccination anomalies significantly impact women's health, access to medical treatments and medications, mental well-being, and daily physical activities.

Global burden of 288 causes of death and life expectancy decomposition in 204 countries and territories and 811 subnational locations, 1990-2021: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2021.

Background: Regular, detailed reporting on population health by underlying cause of death is fundamental for public health decision making. Cause-specific estimates of mortality and the subsequent effects on life expectancy worldwide are valuable metrics to gauge progress in reducing mortality rates. These estimates are particularly important following large-scale mortality spikes, such as the COVID-19 pandemic.

A bipolar intuitionistic fuzzy decision-making model for selection of effective diagnosis method of tuberculosis.

Objectives: Tuberculosis (TB) is a contagious illness caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The initial symptoms of TB are similar to other respiratory illnesses, posing diagnostic challenges. Therefore, the primary goal of this study is to design a novel decision-support system under a bipolar intuitionistic fuzzy environment to examine an effective TB diagnosing method.

Tragia involucrata Linn. (T. involucrata) belongs to the family of Euphorbiaceae found in the subtropical regions.

Bleb-related Porcine Lymphatic Outflow is Greater from Subconjunctival compared to Subtenon Blebs.

Aim: Understanding the mechanism of fluid outflow by comparing the subconjunctival and subtenon spaces can lead to improved ocular therapeutics. The purpose of the current study is to evaluate subconjunctival vs subtenon lymphatic outflow by creating tracer-filled blebs in each location.

Methods: Porcine ( = 20) eyes received subconjunctival or subtenon injection(s) of fixable and fluorescent dextrans.

Subconjunctival Lymphatics Respond to VEGFC and Anti-Metabolites in Rabbit and Mouse Eyes.

Purpose: To characterize and pharmacologically influence subconjunctival lymphatics in rabbit and mouse eyes.

Methods: Rabbits received subconjunctival injections of trypan blue or fixable fluorescent dextrans. Bleb-related outflow pathways were quantified.

Mapping development and health effects of cooking with solid fuels in low-income and middle-income countries, 2000-18: a geospatial modelling study.

Background: More than 3 billion people do not have access to clean energy and primarily use solid fuels to cook. Use of solid fuels generates household air pollution, which was associated with more than 2 million deaths in 2019. Although local patterns in cooking vary systematically, subnational trends in use of solid fuels have yet to be comprehensively analysed.

Piezo1-Regulated Mechanotransduction Controls Flow-Activated Lymphatic Expansion.

Background: Mutations in PIEZO1 (Piezo type mechanosensitive ion channel component 1) cause human lymphatic malformations. We have previously uncovered an ORAI1 (ORAI calcium release-activated calcium modulator 1)-mediated mechanotransduction pathway that triggers lymphatic sprouting through Notch downregulation in response to fluid flow. However, the identity of its upstream mechanosensor remains unknown.

Mn-doped nickeltitanate (Ni Mn TiO) as a promising support material for PdSn electrocatalysts for methanol oxidation in alkaline media.

Nickeltitanate (Ilmenite) has been prepared with stoichiometric variation by substituting Mn in the 'A' site, using the sol-gel method in a highly active form. The PdSn electrocatalyst was then impregnated with nickeltitanate by a microwave-assisted polyol method. The physiochemical characterisation of the synthesized electrocatalyst PdSn-Ni Mn TiO was done by X-ray diffractometry, UV-visible spectrophotometry, Raman spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy.

Microarray illustrates enhanced mechanistic action towards osteogenesis for magnesium aluminate spinel ceramic-based polyphasic composite scaffold with mesenchymal stem cells and bone morphogenetic protein 2.

Spinel (magnesium aluminate MgAl O ) ceramic-based polyphasic composite scaffold has been recently reported for craniofacial bone tissue engineering. Improving the osteogenic effects of such composite scaffolds with bone morphogenetic proteins (BMP2) is an intensely researched area. This study investigated the gene interactions of this scaffold with BMP2 and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs).

Global, regional, and national mortality among young people aged 10-24 years, 1950-2019: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019.

Background: Documentation of patterns and long-term trends in mortality in young people, which reflect huge changes in demographic and social determinants of adolescent health, enables identification of global investment priorities for this age group. We aimed to analyse data on the number of deaths, years of life lost, and mortality rates by sex and age group in people aged 10-24 years in 204 countries and territories from 1950 to 2019 by use of estimates from the Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study (GBD) 2019.

Methods: We report trends in estimated total numbers of deaths and mortality rate per 100 000 population in young people aged 10-24 years by age group (10-14 years, 15-19 years, and 20-24 years) and sex in 204 countries and territories between 1950 and 2019 for all causes, and between 1980 and 2019 by cause of death.

Studies on physiochemical modifications on biologically important hydroxyapatite materials and their characterization for medical applications.

Crystalline Hydroxyapatite (Ca10 (PO)(OH)) non linear optical crystal plays a major role in biomedical applications. Crystalline Hydroxyapatite was synthesized using natural human bone sample by thermal methods. This Hydroxyapatite was characterized by Fourier Transform infra-red spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscope, UV-Vis spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction and conductivity studies.

Mesenchymal stem cells from orthodontic premolar teeth.

Background: Considering the limitations in isolating Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cells (BMSCs), alternate sources of Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) are being intensely investigated. This study evaluated dental pulp MSCs (DP-MSCs) isolated from orthodontically extracted premolar teeth from a bone tissue engineering perspective.

Methods: MSCs isolated from premolar teeth pulp were cultured and studied using BMSCs as the control.

Mapping 123 million neonatal, infant and child deaths between 2000 and 2017.

Since 2000, many countries have achieved considerable success in improving child survival, but localized progress remains unclear. To inform efforts towards United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 3.2-to end preventable child deaths by 2030-we need consistently estimated data at the subnational level regarding child mortality rates and trends.
