Impact of Pre-Operative Nebulized Lidocaine–Dexmedetomidine Combination Versus Monotherapy on Incidence, Severity, and Patient Comfort Scores of Post-Operative Sore Throat: A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial
Abstract: Post-operative sore throat (POST) is a common issue after endotracheal intubation and can reduce patient comfort and hinder recovery. This randomized, double-blind clinical study investigated how effective pre-operative nebulized lidocaine, dexmedetomidine, and their combination are in minimizing POST. Eligible adult patients classified as ASA I–II and scheduled for elective surgery under general anesthesia were randomly assigned to three groups. Nebulization was administered 15–20 minutes before induction using standardized dosing and …

Designing Methodology for Identifying Different Types of Influx Entering in a Well Bore during Drilling and Study of Influx Behavior
Abstract: Drillers frequently encounter kick in drilling operations. Kick refers to the unwanted entry of formation fluid into the well bore. Primary well control and secondary well control are used to control influx entry into a well during drilling operations. Primary well control refers to making the overbalance by the hydrostatic pressure exerted by drilling fluid on the formation pressure. Secondary well control refers to controlling the kick through the use …

Predicting diabetes status using ensemble algorithms with hyperparameter tuning
Abstract: Diabetes is a condition in which the body is unable to produce enough insulin to keep blood sugar levels under control. If diabetes is not properly identified and treated, it can lead to kidney failure, nerve damage, blindness, and coronary heart disease. A healthy lifestyle, therefore, depends on the early identification of diabetes diseases. However, it can be difficult to assess a person's diabetic status if they live in remote …
