Global Emergence of mcr-mediated Colistin Resistance in Gram-negative Bacteria: Focusing the Current Status in India Under One Health Lens
Abstract: In the global crisis of antimicrobial resistance (AMR), colistin has been revived as a last resort treatment option for multidrug-resistant (MDR) Gram-negative bacterial infections. Rapid dissemination of mobilized colistin resistance (mcr) genes among Gram-negative bacterial pathogens is alarming the healthcare fraternity throughout the world, especially in developing countries such as India compromises infection prevention practices and reduces colistin efficacy during medical emergencies.. Several developed countries have implemented strict regulations on …

Nitric Oxide Synthase (NOS) in Breast Carcinoma
Abstract: Breast cancer is the most alarming problem of the current time. Nitric oxide, a free radical gas is synthesized by isoenzymes called nitric oxide synthase. Nitric oxide synthase consists of three isoforms; Nitric oxide produced is cytotoxic which is known to inhibit the DNA synthesis causing its damage. Keeping this in mind, nitric oxide synthase was determined in breast cancer and normal breast tissue. For this tissue from 60 breast …

Arsenic as a Cause of Cancer
Abstract: Inorganic Arsenic (iAs) is a pervasive and ubiquitous environmental toxin that has created world-wide human health problems. Populations exposed to high concentrations of arsenic-contaminated drinking water suffer serious health consequences ranging from acute toxicities to development of malignancies, including alarming cancer incidence and death rates. Epidemiologic studies have shown a relationship between chronic arsenic exposure and disease of the skin, lung, urinary bladder, and conceivably liver, kidney, and prostate in …

Real-Time Crack Detection in Polymer Composites Using Embedded IoT Sensor Networks
Abstract: This study developed an embedded Internet of Things sensor network for real-time crack detection, localization, and severity assessment in glass–fiber-reinforced polymer composites. Four polyvinylidene fluoride sensors were embedded near the laminate mid-plane and connected to synchronized wireless acquisition nodes. Controlled low-velocity impacts generated graded damage states. Ultrasonic C-scan and optical microscopy provided independent labels. A compact multi-channel convolutional model processed normalized waveforms, spectral entropy, signal energy, and arrival-time differences at …

A Reproducible Low-cost Adaptive Cruise Control Platform with Lidar–Ultrasonic Sensor Fusion and Timer-conflict-free Servo-Scanned Blind-spot Detection on Arduino UNO
Abstract: Road traffic deaths caused by driver distraction and inadequate surroundings remain a big problem for preventable deaths. This paper talks about designing and testing an affordable, easy-to-copy Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) system. It uses LiDAR-ultrasonic sensors to figure out how far things are in front of the car, and a servo-actuated, dynamically scanned blind spot detector. All of this runs on a single Arduino Uno. To measure front distance, they …

The Doomsday Clock and Global Health: A Medical Sociological Analysis of Existential Threats to Human Civilization From 1947 to 85 Seconds to Midnight Situating the Biosocial Crises of the Twenty-First Century
Abstract: Since its inception in 1947, the Doomsday Clock maintained by the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists has functioned as a socially constructed barometer of civilisational risk, translating complex scientific, geopolitical, and technological threats into a universally legible symbolic chronometry. As of January 2026, the Clock stands at 85 seconds to midnight, its most alarming position in nearly eight decades of operation. This article adopts a medical sociological framework, drawing on …

Control the Robot via Both Voice & Moblie Application in Departmental Information Robot
Abstract: The concept and development of an autonomous, interactive humanoid robot created to deliver college information via voice and mobile application control are presented in this work. To facilitate easy user interaction with the robot, the suggested system combines intelligent control, wireless connection, and speech recognition. The robot is equipped with a 10-inch monitor that provides instructors and students with information about college departments, facilities, and services. Oral responses from a …

Performance-Based Fire Safety Assessment and Optimization of a Mixed-Use High-Rise Building Using NBC 2016, Hydraulic Adequacy, and Evacuation Time Analysis
Abstract: This paper presents a performance-based fire safety assessment of a simulated 92 m mixed-use high-rise building containing parking, commercial, office, and residential occupancies. Rather than relying only on prescriptive compliance, the study evaluates whether the installed fire protection strategy can maintain tenable conditions and deliver adequate suppression performance during a credible design fire. Using the base data supplied for the Metro Central Tower case, the work determines fire load density, …

IS-Aligned Strategic Evaluation of Fire Protection Systems for Improving Fire Safety in Mixed-Occupancy High-Rise Buildings
Abstract: This paper presents a substantially reworked Indian-context evaluation of fire protection systems in a 14-building high-rise sample from Indore. The study reuses the original field dataset but replaces the earlier code mix with an explicitly IS-aligned and NBC-oriented analytical framework. Physical observation, document review and interview inputs were screened against requirements related to means of egress, compartmentation, fire detection and alarm, hydrants and hose reels, extinguishers, emergency lighting, smoke control, …
