Heftiness, a mind boggling interchange among ecological and hereditary factors and is related with critical horribleness and mortality. Utilization of herbs for the administration of heftiness in the ongoing occasions is pulling in consideration. A web and manual based writing overview was led to survey the measure of data accessible on the natural items for weight administration. Customary writing, PubMed, Scopus, Google researcher databases were screened up to February 2012. The pursuit words were “stoutness”, “home grown medication/items/separates”, “restorative plants”, “customary drug”, “Ayurvedic prescription” without narrowing/constraining looking words or components. Distributions just with edited compositions/full articles and books were inspected in the pursuit. In light of the accessible writing, for huge numbers of the natural and weight reduction items, there is minimal distributed data and there have been no clinical preliminaries or the level of proof is restricted. Our writing study additionally demonstrated that these home grown items fall under an adequate level of proof or with no scientific foundation by any stretch of the imagination, or they have a logical discerning however not to an acknowledgment level. Endeavors were made in the audit to characterize the highlights of conceivable natural weight reduction item. A perfect home grown enemy of stoutness item ought to diminish the weight by 10% over fake treatment of treatment by demonstrating a proof of change of bio markers like blood pres-beyond any doubt, lipids and glycemia with no reactions.

This study aims to make a database of the birds in the area of Elssuki, Sinnar state - Sudan. The period of study spanning from 2008 to 2023 with a mix of methods used to identify bird species in many sites in the locality, these methods include road count, line transects, and direct count besides registering every strange, rare, or unusual single species seen in the area. All these methods are used by different researchers and applied in such studies in Sudan.The study revealed that the area is one of the important areas enriched of birds in Sinnar state of 19 orders 53 families. The total number of species is 129 species. It included all birds; water birds, tree birds, diving birds, dabbling birds, swimming birds, small waders, and passerines which the most. The study concluded that there is a need for comprehensive and regular studies and short and long-term monitoring to identify, classify, and establish a database for Sudan Birds Atlas.

In 1955, nutrient malabsorption following upper gut surgery was shown to be related to altered upper gut microbiome. In individuals with abdominal symptoms after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, we have reported that small intestinal glucose malabsorption is associated with upper gut bacterial overgrowth. We hypothesize that individuals with abdominal symptoms after vertical sleeve gastrectomy have glucose malabsorption associated with upper gut bacterial overgrowth, and to test this hypothesis, bacterial overgrowth and potential glucose malabsorption are examined after sleeve gastrectomy. This is a retrospective study of individuals with medically-complicated obesity who underwent sleeve gastrectomy from 2013 to 2016 with subsequent glucose hydrogen breath testing to evaluate abdominal symptoms. A fasting breath hydrogen or methane of ≥10 PPM or rise of ≥8 PPM ≤45 minutes after oral glucose is bacterial overgrowth, while glucose malabsorption is a second rise of ≥8 PPM at >45 minutes. Seven females (mean age: 48.0 years; mean body mass index at surgery: 45.7 kg/m2) are described. Five subjects (71%) have an early rise in hydrogen or methane, while three (43%) have a second rise in hydrogen or methane >45 minutes after glucose. The mean percent excess weight loss at one year was 40% in three individuals with a second peak and 46% in four subjects without a second peak. After sleeve gastrectomy, subjects have glucose malabsorption associated with the presence of bacterial overgrowth. Completion of a larger prospective study is needed to confirm and expanding upon these findings. Further work should examine the potential effects of bacterial overgrowth on expression of intestinal glucose transporters.

One of the most important and critical red blood cell disorders is dysfunction and deformation of the membrane structure, which affects the metabolic and biological red blood cell functions. On the other hand, the basic causes of these problems are the genetic mutations in the production of proteins that correlate to the structure and receptors of cells. The diagnosis methods and techniques are the other essential points that focus most scientists on. In this systematic review, the article pointed to the key title, which is the diagnosis of novel genes with different techniques and methods. The result of articles studies that were published in the last decades underlined the types of techniques such as Whole-Exome Sequencing, Quantitative Real-Time PCR, Targeted Next-Generation Sequencing, and Sulphate-Polyacrylamide Gel, which investigated the different membraned gene mutations that are novel and correlated to the genes that make the structures and functions of red blood cells such as hereditary spherocytosis, hereditary elliptocytosis, hereditary pyro poikilocytosis. In addition, the hereditary membrane disorders correlated to others, such as hereditary spherocytosis, have a relationship with vitamin B12, immunodeficiency.

The liaison of birth weight to neonatal and mature vigor is especially given important if have the acquaintance of factors distressing in birth weight. Unbiased Best linear prediction of breeding values was estimated from pedigree birth weight records of 13715 Kajli sheep of livestock Experiment Station Khizerabad born 1994 to 2010, and Livestock Experimental Station, Khushab. Data records were statistically analyzed by means of using computer programmed Mixed Model Harvey’s Least Squares and Maximum Likelihood. An animal model was used for heritability estimation following Maximum Likelihood procedure. Estimates of birth weight heritability in Kajli sheep were 0.05 ± 0.019. The estimated breeding values of both forms for males, females, and sire were calculated with significant variation. Both farms data were analyzed by using an animal model program. The squares mean slightest for weight at birth (kg), remained 4.13 ± 0.01 kg. In addition, birth of the year, the birth of type, flock and sex significantly affects the (p < 0.001) trait of birth weight. The domino effect of the current study has rational implications not only for sheep husbandry nevertheless as well as for amplified acquaintance of parameters which drastically persuade deviation of weight in birth as weight in birth has become itself noteworthy forecaster of anon fitness outcomes. These results showed the decreasing genetic and static phenotypic at birth weight. It is likely that there are complex interactions between genetics and environmental factors of parental, placental and fetal origin. Birth weight is highly influenced trait by maternal nutrition, genes, care, management, climate, seasonal variation and type of birth.

Levels of electrically evoked stapedial reflex thresholds (eESRTs) are frequently used as most comfortable levels (MCL) in cochlear implant fitting. The problem of routine one-channel-technique of reflexometry is long duration of this procedure. In order to “compress the time” we suggest method of consecutive stimulation of all electrodes of implant with simultaneous registration of stapedial reflexes-SWEEP-session. Practical implementation of the SWEEP-session is described here. This method has been successfully used in several hundred CI patients. Registration of evoked electrical stapedial reflex thresholds (eESRTs) during CI fitting is long procedure. In order to “compress the time” we suggest our SWEEP-session method. Practical implementation of this SWEEP-session is described here in accordance with the patent of Russian Federation.

To facilitate understanding some issues of cochlear implantation for new beginners we wrote 1- “The Instruction for audiologists and cochlear implanted patients” and created 2-Demo-program MIMIC. Here are opinions of readers of “The Instruction” and participants of MIMIC. All the ratings are from positive to enthusiastic.

Aims: The study was conducted from January to June 2023 to observe the prevalence of repeat breeding syndrome in cows, to isolate and identify the bacteria with their molecular confirmation, and antibiotic sensitivity in Bangladesh. Study design & Place and duration of study: The study was conducted under the supervision of the Department of Medicine, Surgery, and Obstetrics, Hajee Mohammad Danesh Science and Technology University, Dinajpur-5200. Some laboratory work was performed at the Microbiology Department of Pathology and Parasitology laboratory, HSTU, from January to June 2023.Methodology: A questionnaire was used to identify repeat breeding syndrome. Bacteria were isolated and identified from the cervical mucus of affected cows. For confirmation of the detected bacteria, PCR was used. The agar disc diffusion method was utilized to investigate the antibiotic sensitivity of the detected isolates against widely used antibiotics in vitro. Results: The prevalence of Repeat Breeding (RB) was 41.33%. The prevalence of E. coli was 40%, Staphylococcus aureus 40% and Klebsiella spp. 10%. Molecular detection of E. coli and Staphylococcus aureus was confirmed by using Eco 223 (F), Eco 455 (R), Sau 234(F), and Sau 1501(R) primers. The target genes were 16S and 23S rRNA, and the size of the product amplified at 232 bp and 1267 bp, respectively. According to the antibiogram profile, E. coli was resistant to ciprofloxacin, penicillin, tetracycline, amoxicillin, and erythromycin, but sensitive to ceftriaxone and gentamicin. While Staphylococcus aureus was resistant to ampicillin and erythromycin, it was sensitive to ciprofloxacin, ceftriaxone, and levofloxacin. It was also intermediately resistant to vancomycin and amoxicillin. Klebsiella spp. Showed resistance to ceftriaxone, penicillin, and amoxicillin, while remaining sensitive to ciprofloxacin, tetracycline, and intermediate resistance to erythromycin and gentamicin. Conclusion: This study concluded that E. coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Klebsiella spp. are the most common bacteria causing repeat breeding syndrome in cows.

Cancer is a highly heterogeneous and dynamic disease whose progression, metastasis, therapeutic resistance, and immune escape are strongly regulated by the tumor microenvironment (TME). However, conventional two-dimensional (2D) cell culture systems and animal models often fail to recapitulate the structural organization, multicellular interactions, biochemical gradients, and mechanical properties of native tumors, thereby limiting the translational efficiency of preclinical cancer research and drug development. In recent years, in vitro three-dimensional (3D) biomimetic tumor models-including tumor spheroids, tumor organoids, and tumor-on-a-chip systems—have emerged as powerful platforms for reconstructing physiologically relevant tumor microenvironments and investigating complex tumor behaviors.In this review, we systematically summarize the construction principles, biological characteristics, advantages, and limitations of major 3D biomimetic tumor models. We further discuss their recent applications in drug screening, precision medicine, tumor heterogeneity research, cancer stem cell investigation, metastasis, therapeutic resistance, and immunotherapy evaluation. Particular emphasis is placed on the comparative advantages of different 3D systems in modeling dynamic tumor–microenvironment interactions and supporting translational oncology research. Additionally, we will discuss the current problems of vascularisation, extracellular matrix biomimetics, experimental reproducibility, standardisation, and large-scale clinical translation. Finally, we present some new directions for future work, including three-dimensional bioprinting, multi-omics technology, artificial intelligence, and multi-organ-on-a-chip platforms, which may further improve the physiological relevance and predictive power of next-generation tumor models.In short, this review has listed the current progress of 3D biomimetic tumour modelling and discussed some prospects for its use in mechanistic studies of cancer, drug discovery, etc.

The resistance to anthelmintics in poultry farming and the challenges with the restricted use of drugs in organic farms make the use of biological controllers an innovative bridge to verminosis control. This paper aims to evaluate the efficacy of the larvicidal fungus Duddingtonia flagrans and the ovicidal fungus Pochonia chlamydosporia in Hy-line Brown (Gallus Gallus Domesticus) layer farms. Both fungi were combined in the core of the feed administered to the birds of the treated groups. 28,000 birds were used and divided into three treated groups (TG) in which the feed containing the fungus was administered. The poultry house itself manufactures the birds’ feed; the formula was included in the nucleus at a dose of 100 grams per ton of feed for 7 months. The concentration was 105 chlamydospores of P. chlamydosporia and D. flagrans per gram of the formulation. The control group (CG) received regular food from the farm. The birds were separated into four sheds with 7,000 birds in each. The egg per gram of feces (EPG) testing was performed using fresh fecal samples collected from the sheds over six months. Weather data was collected during the experiment. There was a reduction in the EPG count into three treated groups. The most prevalent helminth was the genus Ascaris. The formulation tested shows little efficacy in this dosage. Key points:•    The use of the fungus P. chlamydosporia and D. flagrans in organic farms;•    Use of biocontrol agents without chemicals in poultry;
