A Conceptual Framework for AI-Integrated Metabolomics in Predictive Health Systems for Resource-Constrained Environments
Abstract: The increasing prevalence of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) continues to place a significant strain on healthcare systems, particularly in low- and middle-income regions where access to early diagnostic infrastructure is limited. Conventional healthcare approaches remain largely reactive, often detecting diseases at advanced stages when treatment effectiveness is reduced. This challenge underscores the need for predictive, cost-effective, and data-driven healthcare solutions. This study presents a conceptual framework that integrates metabolomics with artificial …

Wax Deposition Profile Estimation in Production Pipeline Review
Abstract: Wax deposition has been a major challenge in flow assurance of paraffinic crude oils. A major problem occurs because of a decrease in the bulk oil flowing and pipe wall temperatures. Wax deposits form when the temperature of the produced fluid falls below the wax appearance temperature or the cloud point temperature. Problems like pipeline plugging, increased pumping pressure and reduction in production rates are very common. Sophisticated mechanical and …
