Background: In the last decade, laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) has become a regular daycare surgery at many centres across the world.However, only a few centres in India have a dedicated daycare surgery centre, and very few of them have reported their experience.Concerns remain regarding the feasibility, safety and acceptability of the Luminaire

Recently, the regularized coding-based classification methods (e.g.SRC and CRC) show a great potential for pattern classification.However, most existing coding methods assume that the representation residuals are uncorrelated.In real-world applications, this assumption does not hold.In this paper, we take account of the correlations of the represen

Abstract Background The failures of the international COVID-19 response highlighted key gaps in pandemic preparedness and response (PPR).The G20 and WHO have called for additional funding of $10.5 billion per year to adequately strengthen the global PPR architecture.In response to these calls, in 2022 the World Bank announced the launch of a new Fi

Abstract Background Genetic resistance of soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr] against Aphis glycines provides effective management of this invasive pest, though the underlying molecular mechanisms are largely unknown.This study aimed to investigate genome-wide changes in gene expressions of soybean near-isogenic lines (NILs) either with Cable Tidy Solu

BACKGROUND: Arylamine N-acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2) is an important catalytic enzyme that metabolizes the carcinogenic arylamines, hydrazine drugs and chemicals.This enzyme is highly polymorphic in different human populations.Several polymorphisms of NAT2, including the single amino acid substitutions R64Q, I114T, D122N, L137F, Q145P, R197Q, and G28
