To address challenges such as integrating diverse data, ensuring quality, and managing patient variability, the Dense Spiking Forward Fractional Network (DenSFFNet) model is introduced within the Spark framework. The process begins with image acquisition and partitioning using Deep Embedded Clustering (DEC), followed by preprocessing tasks like Greyscale Conversion, Optic Disc (OD) segmentation with Channel Prior Convolutional Attention (CPCA), and blood vessel segmentation using Frangi-Net across slave nodes. Extracted features, including Learned Invariant Feature Transformation (LIFT) and statistical metrics, are aggregated by the master node, which utilises the DenSFFNet model a combination of DenseNet and Deep Spiking Neural Network (DSNN). The DenSFFNet method attained accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and Matthews correlation coefficient (MCC) is 91.119%, 90.366%, 89.922%, and 92.643% for dataset 1.

This study investigated the effects of aerobic training on adiposity, spontaneous physical activity (SPA), and food and water intake in C57BL/6J mice housed in normoxic (Nx) or hypoxic (Hx) conditions for 8 weeks. Mice were divided into trained (T) and sedentary (S) groups, with 10 mice each. Hx animals were kept in normobaric hypoxia (FiO2=14.5%) for 18 h/day. Training was done at 80% critical velocity, 5 times/week in normoxia. The T groups had lower SPA, especially the Hx-T group, which showed higher food and water intake, reduced fat, and a higher fat-free mass/carcass fat mass ratio.

The brain also suffers from cognitive decline, memory impairment, and a constellation of neurotransmitter abnormalities that lead to depression. In the liver, the consequences are severe and manifest as increased oxidative stress, liver dysfunction, hepatotoxicity, cholestatic jaundice, liver tumours, cell death, and elevations in liver enzymes, bilirubin, and cholesterol. Male athletes experience testicular atrophy, temporary suppression of spermatogenesis, hypogonadism, reduced fertility, infertility, and hormonal imbalance. In contrast, women experience ovarian dysfunction and menstrual irregularities. In the kidney, steroids lead to increased inflammatory cytokines, fibrosis, renal tubular hypertrophy, glomerular changes, and structural damage, and show higher levels of serum creatinine, urinary protein, and cystatin C.
