    Abstract Plants are sessile; they cannot move to avoid adverse environmental conditions. Pathogenesis-related (PR) proteins are induced in the plant by imposing different biotic stresses such as pathogens and abiotic stresses like drought, cold, salinity, heavy metal etc. There are currently nineteen families of PR proteins (PR-1 to PR-19), with 17 confirmed and two putative PR families identified and classified based on their biochemical nature. PR proteins promote innate resistance in plants by disintegrating fungal cell walls, permeabilizing membranes, suppressing transcription, and inactivating ribosomes. Previous research has shown that they play an important role in determining resistance to phytopathogens, making them a promising candidate for developing disease-resistant crop varieties. Plant genetic engineering could be used to create disease-resistant transgenic crops by utilizing several PR genes (thaumatin, osmotin-like proteins, chitinases, glucanases, defensins, thionins, oxalate oxidase, oxalate oxidase-like proteins/germin-like proteins, and LTPs). In this review, we attempt to demonstrate the types and biochemical nature of various PR proteins, as well as their insight mechanism for pathogen resistance and the use of PR proteins for disease-tolerant plants developed at a low cost.

    Abstract This paper presents the design of a Built-in-self-Test (BIST) implemented Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) cryptoprocessor Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC). AES has been proved as the strongest symmetric encryption algorithm declared by USA Govt. and it outperforms all other existing cryptographic algorithms. Its hardware implementation offers much higher speed and physical security than that of its software implementation. Due to this reason, a number of AES cryptoprocessor ASIC have been presented in the literature, but the problem of testability in the complex AES chip is not addressed yet. This research introduces a solution to the problem for the AES cryptoprocessor ASIC implementing mixed-mode BIST technique, a hybrid of pseudo-random and deterministic techniques. The BIST implemented ASIC is designed using IEEE industry standard Hardware Description Language(HDL). It has been simulated using Electronic Design Automation (EDA)tools for verification and validation using the input-output data from the National Institute of Standard and Technology (NIST) of the USA Govt. The simulation results show that the design is working as per desired functionalities in different modes of operation of the ASIC. The current research is compared with those of other researchers, and it shows that it is unique in terms of BIST implementation into the ASIC chip.

    Abstract El confinamiento, impuesto durante la primera ola de la pandemia causada por el virus SARS-CoV-2, ocasionó el cierre de centros educativos complicando la situación para las familias con menores a cargo. El desafío fue aún mayor entre los trabajadores denominados «esenciales», como el personal de las Fuerzas Armadas españolas (F.A.S.). Dada la distribución asimétrica de las tareas de cuidado en España y la posición minoritaria de las féminas en la institución armada, la situación de las mujeres mil-itares era potencialmente crítica. Objetivo. Analizar el uso de las medidas extraordinarias de conciliación, implementadas por el Ministerio de Defensa durante el estado de alarma. Material y método. Se realizó un estudio cuantitativo, transversal y retrospectivo a través de un cuestionario electrónico, anónimo y autoadministrado a una muestra de 473 mujeres militares. Resultados. Durante el periodo analizado, aumentó ligeramente el porcentaje de mujeres militares que hacían uso de medidas de conciliación familiar. Sin embargo, en casos de parejas/exparejas donde ambos progenitores son militares, se duplicó el número de padres que disfrutaron de ellas. Por su parte, las familias monomarentales optaron por la permanencia de la madre en el domicilio. Conclusiones. El confinamiento cambió el perfil de uso de la conciliación familiar en las F.A.S., con mayor presencia de las madres en hogares monomarentales, pero también mayor corresponsabilidad en hogares con ambos progenitores militares. Nuevos análisis sobre los factores que han propiciado esta mayor corresponsabilidad podrían aportar valiosa información para lograr reducir las consecuencias profesionales de la maternidad en las mujeres de las F.A.S.

    Abstract In the competitive market of apparel manufacturing, lead time for production plays a significant role in the delivery of the produces impacting the entire supply chain. Nowadays, composite manufacturers are leaning towards delivering within the shortest possible time to retain customers in this competitive market. To meet this challenge, proper production planning either using the correct method or the appropriate tools is a prerequisite condition; otherwise, mills will inevitably suffer losses or fail to drain out the maximum possible profit from the produces and may also suffer from promoting more expenses rather than yielding revenues. This study deals with the development of a linear programming model in order to reduce the complexity of the scheduling problem of a Composite Textile Industry in pursuit of maximizing profit or minimizing production costs. The model is developed considering process segmentation, utilization of machines and other resources, with respect to lead time. Four different components of the lead time are derived and an excel solver is used in solving the model.

    Abstract Objectives: Human tuberculosis (TB) remains an important cause of death globally. Bangladesh is one of the most affected countries. We aimed to investigate the impact of pulmonary TB on pro- and anticoagulant mechanisms.
    Methods: This prospective study was conducted in Chittagong, Bangladesh. We performed an in-depth analysis of coagulation activation and inhibition in plasma obtained from 64 patients with primary lung TB and 11 patients with recurrent lung TB and compared these with 37 healthy controls. Additionally, in nine patients coagulation activation was studied in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) harvested from the site of infection and compared with BALF from a contralateral unaffected lung subsegment.
    Results: Relative to uninfected controls, primary and recurrent TB were associated with a systemic net procoagulant state, as indicated by enhanced activation of coagulation (elevated plasma levels of thrombin-antithrombin complexes, D-dimer and fibrinogen) together with impaired anticoagulant mechanisms (reduced plasma levels of antithrombin, protein C activity, free protein S, and protein C inhibitor). Activation of coagulation did not correlate with plasma concentrations of established TB biomarkers. Coagulation activation could not be detected at the primary site of infection in a subset of TB patients.
    Conclusions: Pulmonary TB is associated with a systemic hypercoagulable state.

    Abstract Sjögren's syndrome is a common autoimmune disorder characterized by dry mouth and dry eyes. Symptoms and signs are chronic and can be severe. The diagnosis of Sjögren's syndrome can be confusing and time-consuming. The management can also be a significant challenge for the clinicians. However, recent genomic and proteomic developments are unlocking the mystery of the disease process as well as contributing to our ability to define, diagnose, and develop new treatment modalities for patients with this complex disorder.

    Abstract Mucormycosis, also known as phycomycosis or zygomycosis, is caused by common Zygomycete fungi frequently found in soil and decaying vegetation. These mainly infect immunocompromised patients and cause an acute fulminating fungal disease; mucormycosis rarely affects otherwise healthy people. Mucormycosis is a fatal infection with a poor prognosis. Of the different types of mucormycosis, the rhinocerebral type is the most severe one, and its type 2 subtype, the rhino-orbital-cerebral form is the deadliest variety. Here, we report a case of mucormycosis presenting with extensive necrosis of the maxilla with extension into the retrobulbar and infrabulbar region in an otherwise healthy patient. He underwent extensive debriding surgery followed by amphotericin B first and then oral antifungal therapy, but unfortunately, even after extensive surgery and medical treatment, he did not survive.
