Stroke has a significant socioeconomic impact on the world. Ischemic strokes arise when a blood clot (also known as "thrombi") or a fatty plaque (made up of fat residue, cholesterol, and waste particles) blocks the blood supply to a part of the brain, killing the neurons in that area (brain cells). The majority of stroke patients will survive the first sickness, the long-term implications for individuals generally have the largest impact on their health and may also lead to larger numbers of death. So, the prior detection of stroke is necessary to prevent the condition. A cloud-based Stroke prediction system has been presented to identify Stroke using a Machine learning approach in order to diagnose it at an early stage. The intention of the design is to use the convolution neural network (CNN) algorithm to design an automated early ischemic stroke disclosure system. The major goal of using CNN is to accurately detect a stroke and alert the doctor or career as soon as possible.

The author has developed a stress form of Richard's equation. Four newborn abiotic stress parameters, symbolized as SSI, β, bz, and bt, were identified, discussed, and nominated as Hegazy Abiotic Stress Parameters (HASP). The term bz is responsible for shaping the curvature of SSI in the root domain and causing the gradual response which enhances plant survival throughout alternatated wetting and drying cycles. The term bt plays a vital role in determining the moisture regime for deficit irrigation scenarios, without a tangible reduction in crop yield. Lastly, SSI or β dictate the type and amount of uptake in accordance to stress or stress, strain, and weather-induced forces, respectively.

The culture of a people has been the guiding principle in most African societies for time immemorial. As a total way of life, it has moderated the activities of respective societies in all human endeavors. Culture defines individual identity as a member of an ethnic group, it has been the panacea with which prestige, honesty and integrity was obtained. It has knitted societies together in a manner that the observance of law and order was paramount, respect to elders and constituted authorities along traditional lines was supreme. It has molded the human mind to fear not only local cult systems, but the Devine Being with utmost sanctity. The 21st century marked a turning point in the African belief systems as a result of the high regard youths accorded to modernization. The result of this was the flagrant abuse on African deterrent systems. Heightened by the incursion of modern religions and the Information and Communication Technology, the African youth is on collision course with their heritage.

Throughout history, Black women have been considered as the objectified other to be manipulated and controlled. As objects, their existence has been defined, created, and represented by more powerful individuals. Black women's narratives, however, came as a response to the bigoted representations of Black womanhood and focus on the necessity of Black women's struggle to challenge and overthrow racial and patriarchal injustices in order to generate a self-assertive identity. Through analyzing selected novels written by African-American women writers, this book explores Black women's desire to contrive stout identities despite the intersectional obstructions. It explains the way these women writers highlight the female protagonists' persistent efforts to defy the domineering patriarchal and racial forces, and conceive various innovative means to pursue self-fulfilment. Because these writers focus on underscoring Black women's unique experience, their works become part of a revolutionary agenda that considers Black female women's identity as a rhizomatic rather than an arborescent entity.

Emu is native to Australia, and also its national bird. Australian aborigines used to raise emus for food, shelter and clothing for centuries. Considered to be a menace once upon time to the agricultural farmers, emu is now emerging as a potential multi-million dollar industry in the world (Geo, 1993).It is expanding at a rapid rate in several countries including India.

The goal of any drug delivery system is to administer a therapeutic amount of a drug to the appropriate site in the body and achieve as well as maintain the desired plasma concentration for a specific duration. However, challenges such as incomplete drug release, shorter residence times of dosage forms in the upper gastrointestinal tract, and significant first-pass metabolism contribute to lower oral bioavailability. Parenteral drug delivery offers rapid attainment of therapeutically effective drug levels, but it comes with the drawback of a rapid decline in systemic drug levels or potential hazards associated with intravenous infusion, requiring close medical supervision, especially during hospitalization.These limitations inherent in conventional dosage forms have paved the way for an era of controlled and novel drug delivery systems. Specifically designed to release drugs at predetermined rates over predefined periods, controlled drug delivery systems aim to address the shortcomings of traditional drug formulations.Within the realm of microparticulate systems, microspheres hold special importance due to their ability to target drugs and provide controlled release.

The present report shows the performance analysis of a household LPG (liquefied petroleum gas) burner incorporated with porous media consisting of metal balls and metal chips. The thermal efficiencies of a conventional household LPG burner with and without the usage of porous media were compared. With the usage of porous media, the maximum thermal efficiency of the burner was found to be 72.2% which is generally in the range of 64-67% for a conventional LPG burner. Similarly, the temperature distribution across the burner surface was found to be more uniform when porous media was used. The temperature difference across the burner surface in normal condition was around 300 °C whereas using porous media it was decreased to around 100 °C. Also, the energy cost was found to be less with the use of porous media in the burner. A maximum 5.3% saving in energy cost was found with the use of porous media.

We see the world with the retina, ganglion cells send axons to the optic nerve up to the occipital cortex in the brain. The mind growths by all the information from the inner and outer worlds. The teleost retina is used as a model for the vertebrate retina. The electromagnetic field particle Mindtron, explains the existence of the mind in the human brain. There are correlations between the intelligence quotient and cerebral gray matter size, women with prefrontal and temporal association cortices, men with temporal-occipital area. The primary light receptor cells in the retina are the photoreceptor cells rod and cones. A third light sensing cell, the photosensitive ganglion cell, produces the circadian rhythms and reflexive responses, the pupillary light reflex. The retina has 7 million cones and 75-100 million rods with energy requirements greater than the brain needed to renew the photoreceptor outer segments, of which 10% are shed daily. The central retina predominantly contains cones, while the peripheral retina contains rods. In total, the retina has about seven million cones and a hundred million rods. The central retina pcontains cones, while the peripheral rods.
