Among various materials for drug delivery, boron nitride has attracted much attention due to its unique properties for pharmaceutical applications. The efficiency of pure boron nitride nanosheets (BNNS) and modified BNNS by Ni and Pd atoms in the delivery process of the anticancer medicine 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) is studied here within the framework of density functional theory (DFT) method in different configurations. The computational method was carried out for better understanding the new drug delivery system design and release of drug. Calculation of the adsorption energy revealed that adsorption of drug via the F atom in the perpendicular configuration was more desirable than adsorption in the perpendicular state via the O atom of the drug molecule. On the other hand, Ni and Pd improved the geometry and electronic properties of the adsorption process. The Eads increased from −3.488 for pristine BNNS to −7.365 and −8.287 eV for Ni@BNNS and Pd@BNNS, respectively.

The key areas of interest in this examination are the epiphyseal ossification centres and the carpal bones. Human BAA models, although necessary, are time-consuming and prone to mistakes, emphasising the need for a more efficient computerised BAA model. This study introduces ODL-BAAM, a novel Deep Learning-based Bone Age Assessment Model, aimed at enhancing efficiency and accuracy in medical image analysis. Given the critical role of Bone Age Assessment (BAA) in predicting medical disorders, particularly based on hand X-ray images, there’s a pressing need for more streamlined and reliable computerized BAA models. Leveraging Deep Learning methodologies over classical Machine Learning approaches, ODL-BAAM offers a comprehensive solution. The model begins with preprocessing steps to standardize and normalize X-ray data, crucial for managing the inherent complexities of such images. By integrating Faster RCNN with MobileNet, feature extraction becomes more effective, while the Tunicate Swarm Algorithm optimizes model hyperparameters. Age determination is facilitated through SoftMax layers applied to feature vectors. Through extensive simulation studies, ODL-BAAM demonstrates promising results, showcasing heightened sensitivity, specificity, and overall accuracy compared to existing BAA models. With a remarkable 96.5% accuracy rate, ODL-BAAM represents a significant advancement in the realm of computerized BAA, effectively addressing prior limitations and setting a new standard for medical image analysis.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48648,"journal":{"name":"Ain Shams Engineering Journal","volume":"15 10","pages":"Article 102942"},"PeriodicalIF":6.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2090447924003174/pdfft?md5=23756b217dc1d2e206f7579e877ca9d9&pid=1-s2.0-S2090447924003174-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141707847","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paradigm allows for the flexible transformation of health data into personalized, meaningful health knowledge, potentially having a significant impact on health practices in communities where health departments are not actively engaged. Fog computing and the IoT are crucial components of today’s healthcare system, facilitating the management of vast amounts of big data for disease prediction and diagnosis. However, there is a risk of incorrect diagnosis when a patient has multiple illnesses. This paper aims to develop a model for the diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases and diabetes using a combination of AI and IoT approaches. The proposed model encompasses data collection, preprocessing, classification, and parameter setting. Wearables and sensors, which are part of the IoT, facilitate easy data collection, while artificial intelligence methods use this data for disease detection. As an example of intelligent healthcare systems, the proposed approach employs the Smart Healthcare-Crow Search Optimization (SH-CSO) algorithm to diagnose diseases. By adjusting the “weight” and “bias” parameters of the intelligent healthcare systems model, CSO enhances the classification of medical data. The application of CSO significantly improves the diagnostic outcomes of the intelligent healthcare systems model. The efficacy of the SH-CSO algorithm was validated using medical records.

To address these issues, this paper proposes a method that combines UWB and INS sensors. Compared to individual system positioning methods, this approach effectively enhances localization precision, leveraging the complementary strengths of both systems. The paper utilizes Extended Kalman Filtering (EKF) to fuse residual positioning information, and the obtained residual position results are processed using the Multiple Fading Factor Square Root Kalman Filter technique (MSTSCKF). Moreover, during temporal asynchrony, it updates INS positioning and yaw angle information using EKF output for subsequent INS positioning until the next data correction. To further mitigate NLOS effects, a k-means preprocessing method is applied to UWB data. Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) is used as an evaluation metric.

WSN Data Collection for Two-Phase Energy Minimized Load Balancing Scheme (TPEMLB) with Sequential Convex Approximation (SCA), the use of a movable sink, is discovered in this research. The MS collects data from nearby sensors called as sub-sinks along a path as it moves.
