The growing adoption of cloud platforms, such as Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform (GCP), has introduced new complexities in aligning enterprise workloads with federal compliance frameworks. This paper presents a comparative analysis and practical alignment model that integrates these major cloud service providers with the Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP), Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) 199/200, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) AI Risk Management Framework (AI RMF), and the directives established by Executive Order 14110 on the safe, secure, and trustworthy use of Artificial Intelligence. The study develops a multi-dimensional control mapping methodology tailored to ensure technical interoperability, compliance readiness, and risk transparency. Through structured evaluation of service categories, native controls, and governance mechanisms, the paper delivers a unified compliance architecture designed to support secure and auditable cloud deployments in federally regulated environments. Findings contribute actionable insights for IT leaders, cloud architects, and policymakers by offering a scalable and standards-based roadmap for AI-driven cloud governance.

The increasing fusion of the global economy with digital infrastructure has elevated cyber threats from isolated technical issues to significant drivers of financial instability. Despite this, a measurement gap persists, as conventional financial risk models are ill-equipped to handle the high-dimensional and non-linear nature of Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI). This study bridges this gap by developing and validating a predictive framework that translates global CTI into quantitative forecasts of systemic financial risk. Using a comprehensive dataset of over 77,000 daily cyber threat observations across 225 countries from 2015 to 2024, we forecast the U.S. St. Louis Fed Financial Stress Index (STLFSI). We conduct a comparative analysis of advanced deep learning architectures, including a Temporal Fusion Transformer (TFT), against canonical machine learning ensembles. Our results show that a gradient-boosted model (XGBoost) decisively outperforms other models, achieving an R² of 0.9883 and RMSE of 0.0321 on the hold-out test set. Employing Explainable AI (XAI) techniques, we deconstruct the model's predictions and find that its success stems from capturing the complex, non-linear interaction between cyber threat levels and the pre-existing state of financial market stress. This research provides robust empirical evidence of the cyber-financial nexus, offering a novel, data-driven methodology for asset managers, regulators, and security leaders to proactively quantify and manage a critical 21st-century risk.

Accurate forecasting of urban air pollutants is critical for public health management and regulatory compliance. While machine learning models are widely used, their performance is highly dependent on the robustness of the underlying methodological framework. This study proposes and validates a comprehensive, end-to-end framework for forecasting hourly Carbon Monoxide (CO) concentrations using the canonical UCI Air Quality dataset. The methodology integrates context-aware data imputation, an advanced feature engineering pipeline (incorporating temporal, cyclical, autoregressive, and rolling-window features), and a rigorous comparative evaluation of fourteen distinct machine learning models. Crucially, all models are validated using a 5-fold TimeSeriesSplit cross-validation protocol to ensure temporal data integrity and prevent lookahead bias. The results demonstrate the clear superiority of ensemble methods, with an optimized XGBoost model emerging as the top performer, achieving an R-squared score of 0.9216 and a Root Mean Squared Error of 0.3824 mg/m³. Feature importance analysis revealed that the model’s predictions were overwhelmingly driven by non-methanic hydrocarbon (NMHC) sensor readings and their engineered non-linear terms, confirming the model learned scientifically sound relationships. This study validates a synergistic framework where advanced feature engineering paired with powerful ensemble models provides a new benchmark for accuracy and offers a viable template for developing reliable, real-world air quality forecasting systems.

The importance of efficient digital platforms for monitoring greenhouse gas (GHG) indicators cannot be overstated in contemporary environmental management and sustainability efforts. Such platforms are crucial for accurate, real-time data collection and integration, facilitating regulatory compliance, and enabling strategic decision-making. However, developing a usable digital platform for GHG monitoring is challenging due to the complexity of integrating diverse data sources, ensuring data accuracy and reliability, and providing user-friendly interfaces for varied stakeholders.
Despite the availability of multiple official data sources on GHG emissions, no specific digital platform exists to comprehensively aggregate and manage this data. Existing systems often lack the flexibility to incorporate new indicators and adapt to evolving regulatory requirements. This paper presents a digital platform capable of seamlessly integrating data from various sources and offering robust usability, to enhance the effectiveness of GHG emission monitoring. The platform can be valuable to stakeholders, including regulatory bodies, industry leaders, environmental organizations, and the general public to address the complexities of environmental data and advancing global sustainability efforts.

Cancer, a multifaceted disease with physical, emotional, and psychological burdens, challenges patients well beyond the physiological effects of tumours and treatment side effects. The journey through diagnosis, treatment, and survivorship often entails a complex interplay of distress, anxiety, depression, and cognitive impairments, significantly impacting quality of life. As oncology care advances, it becomes imperative to adopt a holistic approach that addresses not only the physical but also the psychological needs of cancer patients. Integrating psychopharmacology into comprehensive cancer care emerges as a critical, yet often underutilized, strategy to improve overall patient outcomes.

Surgical practice has traditionally emphasized biological and physiological dimensions of health. Yet patients are not only organisms to be repaired; they are social beings whose emotions influence pain perception, treatment adherence, and recovery trajectories. Neuromarketing, a field that investigates how emotions and expectations shape decision-making and bodily experience, offers unique tools to bridge this gap. By acknowledging patients’ emotional responses as integral rather than peripheral, medicine can align more closely with the human condition. This editorial argues that integrating neuromarketing insights into surgical communication and perioperative care highlights the transformative potential of treating patients not only as biological systems but as emotional and social selves.

Back pain is one of the most common medical and social problems worldwide. In 2021 low back pain globally affected to 628.8 million people [8]. Treatment of this condition included exercises, behavioral treatment, physiotherapy, psychological and social support, manual therapy, acupuncture, medications, interventional pain management and surgery. For the treatment of this conditions, initially conservative modalities are using but in cases when they are failing, pain interventions and surgeries are indicated.

History of medicine has it’s roots in ancient times dating before the birth of Christ. Medicine has since then undergone massive evolution, more so in the 20^th and 21^st centuries. Traditional medicine has now mostly been replaced by evidence-based Allopathic medicine. However, the need to align traditional medicine with modern day medicine is being recognized. Countries like Bangladesh, with rich history of traditional systems of medicine, can be in the forefront. For this further work including research, appropriate policy for pharmaceutical industries etc. is now time demanding.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease with prevalent of clinical expressions on the joints of the body especially in the inflammation of synovial membrane, degeneration of cartilage and bone and multi-organ involvement. The current review is an integrative framework synthesising the view of RA immunopathogenesis, biomarkers development, precision medicine, and novel ways of treating RA. Pathogenesis is the result of an interaction of genetic risk alleles such as HLA-DRB1, environmental exposures, and dysregulated immune pathways which converge around Th1/Th17 cells, B lymphocytes and fibroblast-like synoviocytes. The inflammatory condition in the complex rheumatic disease is a clinico-pathological convergence sampling that is based on epigenomic reprogramming and metabolic adaptations. Recent serological and multi-omics assay developments, anti-citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPAs), 14-3-3eta, microRNAs, and exosomes have made early diagnostic sensitivity, longitudinal pattern of disease, and therapeutic accuracy possible. The emergence of precision medicine as defined by pharmacogenomic testing and synovial testing assists in the support of personalised approaches to treatment. Artificial intelligence is more and more being used in order to normalise heterogeneous data on biomarkers in order to facilitate dynamic risk evaluation. The therapeutic front has advanced as usual beyond traditional disease modifying antirheumatic medicines (DMARDs) to biologics medicines, JAK / BTK blockers, and experimental avenues like tolerazine vaccines, stem cell-based medicine, and nanomedicine. Despite of recent advances in therapeutic practice, patients with malignant neoplasms still pose complications in terms of symptom control, namely pain, fatigue and comorbidities. Further, it has increasingly become more and more common with acquired treatment resistance. Therefore, it is imperative to engage a multidisciplinary patient centred paradigm to facilitate the long term remission and foster long term clinical outcomes.

Romantic relationships are often idealized as the highest form of human intimacy. Yet they are also among the most fragile of human arrangements. Divorce and long-term relationship failure have become common, not because love itself has weakened, but because couples often lack clarity about the kind of relational structure they are building.

Recognizing the environmental impact of aquaculture, a study was conducted to investigate the feasibility of generating aquaculture data using ResourceSat LISS-IV and PAN data in a section of coastal Andhra Pradesh, southern India. The study involved database preparation, including georeferencing and radiometric normalization, on-screen visual interpretation of spaceborne multispectral and multitemporal data, and the creation of area statistics.

The ResourceSat LISS-IV data enabled the identification of areas where aquaculture is practiced, while the LISS-IV and PAN-merged data facilitated the detection of individual aquaculture ponds due to improved spatial resolution. Between 1986 and 2001, the area under aquaculture expanded significantly.

The study aimed to assess the potential of various image fusion techniques, namely:

1. Hue-Intensity-Saturation (HIS),
2. Principal Component Analysis (PCA),
3. Brovey transformation,
4. Cubic spline wavelet transformation,
5. Multiplicative transformation, and
6. High-pass filter (HPF) transformation,

for delineating salt-affected soils in the Kaikalur area of Andhra Pradesh using data from the Indian Remote Sensing Satellite (IRS-ID) Linear Imaging Self-Scanning Sensor (LISS-IV) and Panchromatic sensor data.

The results indicate that, compared to commonly used approaches like IHS transformation, wavelet transformation provides more accurate delineation of salt-affected soils. Furthermore, IHS and HPF transformations have been found to outperform PCA transformation in terms of accuracy and performance.

In my journey as a veterinarian and an epidemiologist, I have witnessed firsthand how closely the health of humans, animals, and our shared environment are intertwined. A contaminated water source on a farm, an outbreak of foodborne illness, or the rapid spread of COVID-19 across the globe—these are stark reminders that pathogens do not respect boundaries. This is why the One Health approach is not just a framework but a necessity [1].

It has been known for many years that the last few radiation therapy treatment fractions can increase the tumor cure from a few percent to 80-90 % with classical photon or electron beam treatments [1, 2]. This is indicating that the loss of the last few clonogenic tumor cells are determining the therapeutic outcome and the probability of cure. Interestingly, this also means that both the therapeutic beams and the tumor are Quantized and the treatment outcome is largely dependent on the probability that all tumor clonogens are lethally hit by the particles of the therapeutic beam weather they are primary electrons or secondary electrons in photon and ion beams. In fact, it has recently been demonstrated that the therapeutic entity of most if not all radiation beams is the low energy secondary so called  -electrons or  -rays of energy below ≈1 keV that are capable of delivering a local dose of about 1M Gy to 10 nm size objects. Such critical energy deposition sites are the periphery of the nucleosome and  -rays can induce a very severe Dual Double Strand Break (DDSB) on their DNA as it is wound two turns around the nucleosome [3]. Unfortunately, this kind of damage is very hard to handle by the most common DNA repair system for DSB´s, namely the Non Homologous End Joining process (NHEJ) as the resulting DSB´s are as close as 80 base pairs or 35 nm from each other. The two DNApk molecules needed for repair dose not generally have room enough for each other to work on the DNA [3, 4]. Even if the damage sometimes can be repaired by a switch to the Homologous Recombination DSB repair machinery, this is one of the most severe damage events to nuclear DNA that may often lead to cell death [3, 4]. The interesting fact that the these  -rays are produced by practically all therapeutic beams and it make them the key Effectors of all curative radiation therapy as discussed in further details recently [3-7]. As proven in some of these studies [4, 7] the Relative Biological Efficiency of light ion beams is closely related to the mean  -ray multiplicity along the ion track as they are produced new almost as fast as they are absorbed along the track. The RBE in front of the Bragg peak of Boron, Carbon and Nitrogen ions is about 3, corresponding to ≈3  -rays in average along every section of these high ionization density ion tracks.

Diabetes mellitus represents one of the most formidable global health challenges of the 21st century. The International Diabetes Federation estimates that 589 million adults aged 20-79 years were living with diabetes in 2024, with projections reaching 853 million by 2050 [1].

People regularly share goods, services, or ideas as needed because no one can know or produce everything necessary. How they interact influences their life paths.

Exchanging products can bring happiness or disappointment to players in relationships, depending on the quality of the product, its availability when needed, skilled interaction with producers, and a fair price. Some consumers consider the producer's reputation in both real and online communities when deciding on a possible collaboration, viewing the moral value and expertise of providers as indicators of fostering healthy relationships.

Background: Magnetic field therapies have gained attention for their non-invasive potential to modulate biological processes, yet the underlying molecular mechanisms remain poorly understood, particularly at the proteomic level.

Objective: This pilot study aimed to assess whether short-term exposure to low-frequency magnetic fields affects the proteomic profile of human buccal cells and to evaluate the methodological viability of using buccal cell proteomics as a monitoring tool.

Methods: Nine participants were assigned to either a control group (n=3) or an intervention group (n=6) exposed to the Vitori mat (7.83 Hz Schumann frequency) for five consecutive days. Buccal cell samples were collected pre- and post-intervention, with a follow-up sample collected three days later in the intervention group. Samples were analyzed via LC-MS/MS using a data-independent acquisition (DIA) workflow and processed with DIA-NN [1]. Statistical comparisons employed Wilcoxon rank-sum and Friedman tests.

Results: A total of 108 protein groups differed significantly between groups after exposure (p<0.05), while 67 proteins showed significant temporal changes within the intervention group. Thirteen proteins were identified across both comparisons, implicating biological pathways related to immune regulation, cell proliferation, and stress response. Principal component analysis indicated partial reversibility of proteomic shifts following a short washout phase.

Conclusions: The study confirms both the biological responsiveness of buccal cells to magnetic field exposure and the feasibility of integrating non-invasive sampling with high-resolution proteomic analysis. These findings support future investigations into the molecular mechanisms of magnetic field therapies and the development of minimally invasive monitoring tools.

WHO defines adolescent as those people between the age of 10-19 years. Globally, approximately 1 in 7 (14.3%) of the adolescents suffer from mental health issues, yet they constitute the submerged portion of an iceberg with many undiagnosed and untreated [1]. India constitutes the largest adolescent population i.e. 20% of the world’s 1.2 billion adolescents.

The Global burden of disease (2021) estimated that 14% of adolescents in India experienced a mental disorder; 13.4% of them being boys and 13.9% girls [2].

The past thirty years have seen a shift in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) from simple balloon angioplasty to modern day practices characterized by drug eluting stents (DES) along with powerful antiplatelet medications and sophisticated intra-vascular imaging. With this progress, complication rates have steadily declined. Yet, the specter of abrupt vessel closure (AVC) continues to haunt the catheterization laboratory. Though the incidence of AVC has fallen from approximately 3% in the balloon angioplasty era to 0.3% in the DES era [1], its occurrence remains a life-threatening challenge.

AVC is defined as the sudden cessation of antegrade coronary blood flow during or immediately after PCI. It is not only catastrophic in its clinical consequences but also a litmus test of the operator’s preparedness, judgment, and technical skill. In this editorial note, we revisit AVC from a contemporary lens, distilling mechanistic insights, risk factors, management strategies, and pearls of wisdom that every interventional cardiologist must carry into the lab.

Twenty-first-century medicine faces a paradox: never before have we had so much access to health information, yet we still struggle with recurring outbreaks, epidemics, and the rise of chronic diseases. In this context, statistical modeling emerges as an essential tool to transform large volumes of data into knowledge capable of saving lives.
Statistics have always been present in medicine, but their role has taken on a new dimension with the expansion of clinical, environmental, and social databases. Today, we have decades of time series data on diseases such as tuberculosis, dengue, or leptospirosis, in addition to climatic and socioeconomic variables that influence their occurrence. The challenge is not only to describe the past, but also to predict future scenarios and, in doing so, guide preventive measures before problems arise.

Humans are part of biodiversity. The first functional interactions with the rest of biodiversity emerged from the coevolutionary process in primitive ecosystems. Some interactions have been positive (food, health, habitat, etc.); others negative (pathogens, predators, etc.). However, it is clear that positive (beneficial) interactions have declined, while negative (harmful) interactions have increased; in both cases, as a consequence of the cumulative effects of socioeconomic development.

Background: Haemophilus influenzae (Hi) remains a significant pathogen, causing invasive and non-invasive infections worldwide. Before Hib conjugate vaccines, serotype b (Hib) was the leading cause of meningitis, pneumonia, and septicemia in children under five, with high morbidity and mortality, particularly in Africa. In North Africa, Hib vaccination programs introduced in the early 2000s drastically reduced invasive Hib disease. However, this success has been followed by two key shifts: the rise of non-typeable H. influenzae (NTHi) as the predominant cause of invasive disease and increasing antimicrobial resistance (AMR), particularly to β-lactam antibiotics.
Materials and Methods: This review synthesizes two decades of data from Tunisia, Morocco, Algeria, Egypt, and Libya on vaccine impact, serotype dynamics, and evolving resistance. Published studies, surveillance reports, and immunization data were analyzed, including the prevalence of different serotypes and resistance patterns to antibiotics. Molecular techniques for detecting β-lactamase production and penicillin-binding protein (PBP) mutations were also reviewed.
Results: Hib incidence dropped significantly post-vaccination, with declines of 75-93% in Morocco and near elimination in Tunisia. However, NTHi and serotype a emerged as leading invasive strains. AMR to ampicillin rose from ~27% to >40%, linked to β-lactamase production and PBP3 mutations. Despite this, third-generation cephalosporins remain effective, though some regions show reduced susceptibility.
Conclusion: Hib vaccines have been successful, but the rise of NTHi and AMR presents new challenges. Sustained vaccine coverage, molecular surveillance, and novel vaccines targeting NTHi are critical.

Crude aqueous extracts and fractions of Solanum nigrum berries were prepared using standard methods from berries harvested in both metropolitan and rural areas of Enugu, Nigeria. The extracts exhibited significant glutathione peroxidase activity, an important antioxidant enzyme.

For most of human history, few women lived long enough to reach the decades in which the ovaries slow and the endocrine landscape of the body is remade. Only in the last century and a half has average female life-expectancy climbed past age forty on a large scale—and with that demographic success has come a social and medical problem that, paradoxically, we remain ill-prepared to manage. Perimenopause, the long, often turbulent transition into menopause, is as much a cultural and clinical blind spot as it is a biological one: misunderstood by many patients, under-recognized by too many clinicians, and made more complicated by an environment that increasingly tampers with human endocrine systems.

The concept of learning community refers to the process that brings together (into a community) otherwise individual actions of self-training for common learning goals, Wenger in the book dedicated to processing of the concept of community of practice (Wenger, 1998) describes the different characteristics of the learning that takes place there context and more generally in the interaction with the world. In the learning community, the key word is "Collaborate (co-labore) means working together, which implies a sharing of tasks, and an explicit intention to "add value”. Entrepreneurship education, is part of the theme, and has the aim of developing attitudes, knowledge, skills and competences in the participants, useful not only for their possible commitment in the entrepreneurial field, but in every working context and in every experience of active citizenship. The aim is to create a "transformative" tool to educate learning communities about entrepreneurship, the methodology will consist of a contextual and state-of-the-art analysis, implementing a SWOT Analysis (analysis of strengths), weaknesses, opportunities (opportunities) and threats (threats)) in progress and post intervention, using the focus group as a tool. The focus group can be a suitable tool to facilitate and build a common and effective language; in which a group of people is invited to talk, discuss and discuss attitudes personal to a topic. This dynamic of learning and change can be an effective way to connect and mediate between often contradictory demands regarding issues of environmental sustainability and companies.

The advent of generative artificial intelligence (AI) has precipitated a paradigm shift in the conception, production, and valuation of creative works, challenging centuries-old notions of human genius, originality, and authorship. This article explores how generative AI—exemplified by systems like DALL·E, Midjourney, and ChatGPT—disrupts the Romantic ideal of the solitary creator by producing artifacts that audiences perceive as aesthetically and conceptually original. Drawing on Margaret Boden’s (Boden 2004) typology of creativity (combinatorial, exploratory, transformational) and philosophical critiques from Hubert Dreyfus (1992) and Ted Chiang (2025), we argue that AI does not signal the obsolescence of human creativity but rather its reconfiguration into a hybrid, distributed process. Empirical studies (Ashkinaze et al., 2024; Sarkar, 2023) reveal that while AI outputs are often judged as "creative," they lack the intentionality and embodied experience central to human expression. Yet, artists like Refik Anadol demonstrate how AI can serve as a collaborative tool, expanding creative possibilities through projects like Machine Hallucinations (Anadol, R. 2022–2023), which transform vast datasets into immersive installations. This shift raises pressing questions about authorship, ethical frameworks, and the democratization vs. homogenization of culture, as seen in legal disputes over copyright (Heaven W.D. 2025) and the EU’s 2024 AI Act. The article concludes that the "twilight of human genius" is not an extinction but a transformation, where creativity becomes a plural, interactive, and ethically grounded practice. The future lies in reflective innovation—balancing technological advancement with critical engagement to ensure that AI augments rather than diminishes the depth and diversity of human expression.

The hip joint plays a vital role in enabling human daily mobility. One of the main issues that determines the longevity of Metal-on-metal (MoM) hip implants is wear rate. In order to improve lubrication and reducing friction, surface texturing has been widely adopted as a design alternative in implant manufacturing. Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) with a low current discharge generated by the flyback power supply was employed in this research to machine the micro dimples on hip implant which offers high precision and eliminates burr formation on the surface. The low current discharge with optimize EDM parameters such as V_OC, I_Gap, T_on and T_off, demonstrating a significant influence on performance measures including surface roughness (SR) as well as material removal rate which make it suitable for biomedical applications. Moreover, with steady discharge duration, all micro-dimples are nearly consistent and sharp with required size of diameter.

The design process between problem and solution is overwhelming. The process naturally proceeds with the input and output of the artefact design process.
The design process — a daunting journey from problem to solution — is a natural one that can manifest in various ways. In this process, a realistic worldview plays a pivotal role, guiding the design toward a solution born of a clearly defined problem. As Hannah Arendt [1] suggests, a realistic worldview recognises the cycle of life, encompassing both impermanence and eternity. It is a worldview that engages our senses — seeing, hearing, touching, tasting, and smelling — and is a tool for conscious human problem-solving.
