Knowledge, Attitude, and Practice Regarding Breast Cancer and Its Prevention Among Adolescent School-Going Girls
Abstract: Introduction: Breast cancer claims the lives of over 500,000 women globally each year. In low-resource settings, most women are diagnosed at an advanced stage of the disease, resulting in low 5-year survival rates, typically ranging between 10 and 40%. However, in regions where early detection and basic treatment are both available and accessible, the 5-year survival rate for early-stage localized breast cancer can exceed 80%. Objectives of the Study: The …

Pharmacophore mapping, 3D QSAR, docking, and ADME prediction studies of novel Benzothiazinone derivatives
Abstract: Background Tuberculosis is a major public health concern worldwide which is caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. DprE1 (Decaprenyl Phosphoryl Ribose 2’- Epimerase) is the most challenging target for development of novel anti- tubercular agents because it is a small protein and located into cytoplasmic membrane. So, novel anti-TB drugs did not bound effectively with it. DprE1 catalyzes the oxidation of the 2’ hydroxyl group of DPR (Decaprenyl Phosphoryl D- Ribose) …

A Factorial Investigation of Hyperparameter Tuning Strategies for Lasso- Based Genomic Prediction
Abstract: In an earlier comparative study of machine-learning methods for genomic prediction of wheat grain yield, we reported a counter-intuitive result: automated nested-cross-validation tuning of the Lasso regularization penalty reduced mean predictive ability relative to a fixed, arbitrarily chosen penalty (mean Pearson r falling from 0.408 to 0.349 across four environments), the opposite of the expected effect of hyperparameter tuning. We hypothesized two possible explanations at the time — high-variance penalty …
