Abstract Introduction Clinical placements are central to radiography education, facilitating the development of professional competence and clinical reasoning. However, theory–practice gaps frequently undermine learning, and across many African contexts, the absence of structured clinical education frameworks may compromise placement quality. This scoping review synthesises reported clinical supervision practices within African radiography contexts to inform evidence-based strategies for strengthening clinical educ …

ABSTRACT The escalating generation of global vegetable waste represents a critical loss of bioactive resources, necessitating a paradigm shift from passive disposal to active nutrient upcycling. However, the industrial conversion of this heterogeneous biomass into standardized functional food ingredients is currently impeded by significant techno‐economic barriers, primarily structural recalcitrance, compositional inconsistency, and the presence of toxic fermentation inhibitors. This review provides a comprehensive …

Introduction: The Roma, historically referred to as “Gypsies” (a term now widely considered pejorative in many contexts), appear to have originated in northern India and settled in Europe in the 14th century, spreading mainly to Eastern and Southern Europe. In Greece, they make up 1.13% of the total population and live in all geographical areas of the country. Aim: The aim of this article is to investigate and study the dietary habits of Roma and their health consequences. Methodology: A literature review was condu …

The ability to detect and localize the direction of the source of sounds has been with humans since ancient times, as humans can tell the direction of the sound coming from both the horizontal plane and vertical plane. Recent theory on why humans can distinguish the direction of the sound in the vertical plane is due to the difference between sounds reflected in human ears, more specifically, the pinna, which distort the sound in both the frequency domain and the time domain. In this paper, we will explore more on …

Objective: This systematic review examined how Indigenous and diaspora healing knowledge has been adapted, integrated, or engaged within U.S. mental health systems, with particular attention to cultural adaptation, access to care, and reported outcomes. It focused on how mental health services respond to culturally grounded healing practices, community-based support systems, and alternative help-seeking pathways among Native and diaspora populations. The review also considered whether these forms of healing knowled …

Diabetes prediction plays an important role in re-ducing long-term health risks by enabling early medical interven-tion. Although machine learning models have been widely applied to this task, many existing studies emphasise predictive accuracy while giving comparatively little attention to the reliability, interpretability, and stability of the resulting decisions. This paper develops a reliability-aware and interpretable machine learning framework for diabetes prediction from structured clinical data. Three compl …

India's Unified Payments Interface (UPI) has emerged as the world's largest real-time payment ecosystem, processing over 13.9 billion transactions worth USD 230 billion in a single month as of 2024. This rapid digitization of financial transactions has simultaneously expanded the cyber-threat landscape targeting India's financial technology sector, with reported financial cyber-crimes rising by 334% between 2019 and 2024. Existing security frameworks — including rule-based fraud detection, static anomaly scoring, a …

Despite employing only 7% of the workforce, construction accounts for approximately 20% of workplace fatalities globally, underscoring the critical importance of safety. While integrating health and safety (H&S) into procurement processes is essential for improving outcomes, regulatory frameworks in developing economies remain underexplored. This study employs a comparative leximetric analysis to examine the extent to which H&S requirements are embedded within construction legislation in Nigeria and South Africa. U …

ABSTRACT The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) drug resistance testing (DRT), but current tests are too complex and expensive for routine use. Genotypic DRT is challenging to interpret because of the growing list of mutations responsible for HIV drug resistance. Although phenotypic DRT is simpler to interpret, it requires slow and labor-intensive viral culture. Phenotypic tests that measure the activity of isolated HIV enzymes are faster and less labor-intensive, but none …

SUMMARY Highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) viruses, especially subtype H5N1, have caused major outbreaks in poultry and serious human infections since the first description of “fowl plague” in 1878. Over time, these viruses have expanded their host range, causing huge losses in domestic poultry, spreading among wild bird populations, and occasionally infecting humans. Understanding how influenza viruses adapt and cross species barriers depends on analyzing their fundamental molecular characteristics. Key feat …

This study examines the current state of legal protections for individuals against the unauthorised creation and use of deepfakes and AI-generated digital replicas under Pakistani law. The use of artificial intelligence to create AI-generated media works has grown rapidly. However, Pakistan's existing intellectual property laws, including the Copyright Ordinance 1962 and the Trade Marks Ordinance 2001, as well as other protection mechanisms, do not provide sufficient protection to regulate or control the non-consen …

Rail short-wave irregularities significantly influence wheel–rail interaction and rail integrity. In this study, we developed a three-dimensional finite element model that incorporates short-wave irregularities into the wheel–rail contact simulation. The model captures the transient contact forces and the resulting guided wave propagation along the rail. Our analysis shows that the excited signal propagates primarily as a low-frequency longitudinal guided wave mode with a speed of approximately 5263.16 m s −1 and a …

ABSTRACT Infectious complications are increasingly recognized as a crucial aspect of the clinical management of patients with Myelofibrosis. Infection susceptibility is multifactorial and reflects the interplay between disease‐related immune dysregulation, treatment‐associated immunomodulation, and patient‐specific factors such as age, comorbidities, and prior therapies. Myelofibrosis is characterized by a chronic inflammatory state and impaired innate and adaptive immunity, including dysfunction of natural killer …

Zero-day exploitation in hybrid clouds based on Kubernetes is difficult to detect, as traditional signature detection systems and standalone anomaly detection models are running out of context and are prone to generating numerous false positives in dynamic workloads. In this paper, we bridge this gap with Cerberus, a hybrid detection framework that integrates, in a unique manner, a container-level behavioral analysis running a lightweight one-dimensional convolutional neural network (1D-CNN) and a collective level …

Heat-related illnesses (HRIs) are a growing public health concern, particularly in the context of global climate change. Vulnerable populations, such as agricultural and outdoor workers, face disproportionate risks of HRIs. This study investigates associations between social determinants of health (SDOH) profiles and prevention behaviors, trust in information sources, and frequency of information-seeking related to extreme heat among Florida residents. Using a Bayesian Profile Regression (BPR) approach, we identifi …

Accurate classification of retinal diseases from optical coherence tomography (OCT) images is important for clinical decision support. However, many studies in deep learning put the primary focus on enhancing accuracy and often provide limited attention to calibration and robustness under real-world variations. This work presents an enhanced ConvNeXt-Tiny framework incorporating a Spatial Adaptive Multi-scale Convolution (SAMC) module for retinal OCT classification. Rather than introducing a new convolutional opera …

Introduction Fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD) affects an estimated 1.8–3.6% of UK school children and up to 27% of children in care. FASD remains vastly under-diagnosed and under-recorded in UK electronic patient records (EPRs), leading to significant challenges for individuals with the condition. In 2024, we developed new SNOMED clinical terms aligned to UK national guidelines and quality standards for FASD. Aims Through collaborative knowledge mobilisation (KM), we aimed to: i) raise awareness of the import …
