An Analytical Model to Predict a Real Time Temperature Variation During Laser Treatment of Cancer Tissues
Abstract: This work presents an analytical solution to provide a real time variation in increase of temperature during laser-treatment of cancer tissues. Energy conservation equation is used to model the respective laser treatment process considering application of the laser and related heat loss as heat source terms. The present prediction is validated first with existing literature and extended the same to predict the effect of different process variables, such as laser …

Image Enhancement and Lung Cancer Detection Using Anisotropic Diffusion Filter
Abstract: The leading cause of cancer-related deaths globally is lung cancer. According to the Global Cancer Statistics lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related fatalities with 1.8 million deaths and 2.1 million new cases. Early detection of a tiny tumor can stop cancer from spreading and greatly enhance prognosis and survival rates. Consequently, the creation of a sophisticated computer-aided diagnosis system (CADS) may be advantageous for the early therapy of …

Feature Extraction and Evaluation of Colon Cancer Using PCA, LDA and Gene Expression
Abstract: At about 90 per cent of cases occurring in 50 people or older, colorectal cancer is the second most common type of cancer globally. Cancers may penetrate the deeper layers of colon and spread to other organs from the inner surface or from the muscular layer of the colon. The illness is lethal left untreated. Current screening of colon cancer is performed by colonoscopy. Visual examination of the colon and …

Treatment of Diseases Using Stem Cells
Abstract: The doctors performed the first successful transplantation of bone marrow in 1968. Bone marrow contains somatic stem cells that can create the majority of the distinctive cell types that make up our blood. It is transplanted routinely to treat an assortment of blood and bone marrow ailments, blood cancers, and immune disorders. More recently, stem cells from the blood stream (called peripheral blood stem cells) and umbilical line stem cells …

Common Methods for Isolation, Revival and Freezing of Peripheral Animal Blood Mononuclear Cells—A Review
Abstract: ABSTRACTThe main players to investigate to effect of bio actives on various immune cells are human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). These cells are easily isolated from blood of healthy donors or buffy coats (leukocyte concentrates, a by-product from hospital Blood Banks in the manufacturing of red blood cell and thrombocyte concentrates from anti-coagulated whole blood). PBMCs vary from intestinal tissue cells in terms of structure, phenotype, and activation status. …

Quantum Dots in Oral Diagnostics and Theranostics: Promise and Preclinical Status
Abstract: Quantum dots in oral diagnostics and theranostics represent a rapidly evolving, largely preclinical strategy that couples highly sensitive optical imaging with targeted therapeutic delivery in the oral cavity. Their size-dependent emission, high photostability, and broad excitation spectra allow bright, multiplexed visualization of key molecular events in oral potentially malignant disorders and oral squamous cell carcinoma, while surface functionalization with antibodies, peptides, or smallmolecule ligands enables selective binding to dysplastic and …

Understanding Ovarian Cysts: A Comprehensive Review of Diagnosis, Management, and Complications
Abstract: An ovarian cyst refers to a sac filled with fluid or solid material that forms either within or on the surface of an ovary. These cysts are commonly detected in women who have regular menstrual periods and frequently do not cause any noticeable symptoms. Generally, ovarian cysts are a natural occurrence and tend to resolve spontaneously within several months without necessitating medical intervention. In fact, many women generate cysts regularly …

A Brief Overview of Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation, its Etiology, Clinical Manifestations, Pathophysiology, and Management
Abstract: DIC is the short form of disseminated intravascular coagulation. Disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) may be defined as a generalized hypercoagulable state that leads to blood clotting in microvascular and macrovascular system of the body. This compromised blood flow, to multiple organs and tissues ultimately results in multiple organ dysfunction syndrome or MODS. DIC arise when the proteins that control blood clotting becomes overactive. Though it is a life threatening condition …

A Review Paper on Novel Lipid Nanoparticles for Enhanced Bioavailability of Bioactive Compounds in Breast Cancer Cell Lines
Abstract: Most bioactive compounds from natural products are heavily relied on drug development due to their biological, chemical and pharmacological properties. Some compounds exhibiting anticancer properties have also been reported. However, they present a challenge in achieving the effective absorption and delivery in the body. This is due to minimal bioavailability, fluctuation of plasma drug concentration, low tolerance, first-pass effect which leads to less desired efficacy. Therefore, this calls for an …

A Rare Case of Polythelia during Pregnancy—A Case Report
Abstract: The presence of supernumerary nipples, known as polythelia is the common presentation of accessory breast tissue. It is normally considered to be a benign congenital anomaly. However, polythelia may warrant attention for more than mere cosmetic concern, because supernumerary nipples have been shown to be associated with an increased risk of genitourinary malignancies. Accessory nipples are often considered as a benign congenital anomaly. They may bother the patient for pain …
