Abstract	An accurate, cost-efficient, and early crop yield projection is a national and global necessity. This study is aimed to achieve the national demands by proposing crop yield estimation models on the Google Earth Engine (GEE) platform. This study directly used dynamic crop phenology metrics to model soybean crop yield by considering climatic regions in the USA (e.g., Central, East, Northeast, South, Southeast, and West North Central regions). We modeled soybean yields with vegetative growth metrics (VGMs) of NDVI narrated as VGM70 (avg. NDVI of 70 days from the emergence), VGM85 (avg. NDVI of 85 days from the emergence), VGM98T (total NDVI of 98 days from the emergence), VGM120 (avg. NDVI of 120 days from the emergence), VGM

Abstract	The outbreak of the current coronavirus disease (COVID-19) occurred in late 2019 and quickly spread all over the world. The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) belongs to a genetically diverse group that mutates continuously leading to the emergence of multiple variants. Although a few antiviral agents and anti-inflammatory medicines are available, thousands of individuals have passed away due to emergence of new viral variants. Thus, proper surveillance of the SARS-CoV-2 genome is needed for the rapid identification of developing mutations over time, which are of the major concern if they occur specifically in the surface spike proteins of the virus (neutralizing analyte). This article reviews the potential mutations acquired by the SARS-CoV2 since the pandemic began and their significant impact on the neutralizing efficiency of vaccines and validity of the diagnostic assays.

Abstract	Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a public health concern, and the disease disproportionately affects Hispanics. Improved healthcare access for Hispanic CKD patients can reduce the disease burden. This study assesses the healthcare access disparities experienced by Hispanic CKD patients compared to Whites. Methods: We analyzed three National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) datasets for 2013-2014, 2015-2016, and 2017-2018. The primary predictor variable was race, and the outcome variable was three domains of healthcare access: insurance status, having any routine place for healthcare, and having any health visits in the past year. Chi-square tests and unadjusted and adjusted multivariate logistic regressions were conducted. The models were adjusted for age, education, income, and CKD stages and were weighted to account for the sampling strategy. Results: The sample size was 1864 CKD patients from three two-year cycles of NHANES datasets (2013-2014, 2015-2016, and 2017-2018). The final adjusted model found that Hispanic CKD patients were more likely to be uninsured (OR: 2.52, CI 1.66-3.83) and have no routine place for healthcare (OR: 1.68, CI 1.03-2.75) than White CKD patients, but did not have differences in healthcare visits in the past year. Conclusions: Hispanic CKD patients have limited healthcare access compared to White populations showing existing care access disparities experienced by them. Improved programs and policies are required to enhance kidney health among Hispanics and promote equity in CKD.

Abstract	A million ton of cotton fabric is wasted during cutting process in garment industry as well as in textile dyeing industry due to faulty dyeing. Color stripping of cotton fabric has become a significant challenge in the textile industry because the harsh chemicals used in chemical stripping processes affects the quality of fabric very badly. Conventional stripping methods lead with severe effects due to prolonged treatment time and high chemical concentrations. Recently, microwave-assisted stripping techniques have been emerged as effective alternatives to improve stripping efficiency. In this research, the developed microwave assisted stripping system is improved by the application of Urea, which is utilized as a microwave absorber to further reduce stripping time, temperature, and chemical concentration kept focus on quality parameters of recycled cotton fabric. This study inspects the efficiency of microwave absorber-assisted alkali hydrolysis and reduction in terms of dye-fabric bond cleavage, chromophores removal, chemical consumption, and processing time and compared with sequential stripping, microwave assisted stripping without absorber and conventional methods. The results indicated that microwave absorber-assisted alkali hydrolysis and reduction achieved 90 % stripping efficiency by using lowest concentrations of chemicals, while sequential stripping yielded a stripping efficiency of 96 %. Similarly, microwave absorber assisted methods resulted in minor loss in tear strength and weight. These outputs highlight the superior performance of microwave absorber-assisted techniques, demonstrating their efficiency, novelty, time-saving nature, and reduced damage compared to other methods.

Abstract	Zika virus (ZIKV) and chikungunya virus (CHIKV) are arthropod-borne viruses with significant pathogenicity, posing a substantial health and economic burden on a global scale. Moreover, ZIKV-CHIKV coinfection imposes additional therapeutic challenges as there is no specific treatment for ZIKV or CHIKV infection. While a growing number of studies have documented the ZIKV-CHIKV coinfection, there is currently a lack of conclusive reports on this coinfection. Therefore, we performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to determine the true statistics of ZIKV-CHIKV coinfection in the global human population. Relevant studies were searched for in PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar without limitation in terms of language or publication date. A total of 33 studies containing 41,460 participants were included in this meta-analysis. The study protocol was registered with PROSPERO under the registration number CRD42020176409. The pooled prevalence and confidence intervals of ZIKV-CHIKV coinfection were computed using a random-effects model. The study estimated a combined global prevalence rate of 1.0% [95% CI: 0.7-1.2] for the occurrence of ZIKV-CHIKV coinfection. The region of North America (Mexico, Haiti, and Nicaragua) and the country of Haiti demonstrated maximum prevalence rates of 2.8% [95% CI: 1.5-4.1] and 3.5% [95% CI: 0.2-6.8], respectively. Moreover, the prevalence of coinfection was found to be higher in the paediatric group (2.1% [95% CI: 0.0-4.2]) in comparison with the adult group (0.7% [95% CI: 0.2-1.1]). These findings suggest that the occurrence of ZIKV-CHIKV coinfection varies geographically and by age group. The results of this meta-analysis will guide future investigations seeking to understand the underlying reasons for these variations and the causes of coinfection and to develop targeted prevention and control strategies.

Abstract	Background: It is still unclear to what extent fast-track (FT) surgery is applicable in paediatric surgery. The aim of the study was to compare the outcome between FT and conventional perioperative care protocols in paediatric intestinal stoma closure to assess the safety for future application. Materials and methods: This study was a prospective randomised study. Twenty-six paediatric patients who underwent intestinal stoma closure from December 2019 to March 2021 were divided into two groups: group A, conventional methods and Group B FT protocol. The FT protocol included minimal pre-operative fasting, no pre-operative bowel preparation, no routine intraoperative use of nasogastric tube, drain tube, urinary catheter, early post-operative enteral feeding, early mobilisation, non-opioid analgesics and prophylactic use of anti-emetic. Total length of post-operative hospital stays and complications between these two groups were compared. Results: No significant differences were found between the two groups regarding anastomotic leak (nil in both groups), wound infection (7.7% in Group A vs. 0% in Group B; P = 1.0) and wound dehiscence (7.7% in Group A vs. 0% in Group B; P = 1.0). No significant differences were found in post-operative length of stay (median 5, interquartile range [IQR] 4-9 in Group A and median 6, IQR 4-7 in Group B, P = 0.549) and time to appearance of bowel function (passage of stool) (median 2 days in both groups; P = 0.978). Conclusions: FT surgery was comparable to the conventional method in terms of complication and thus can reduce unnecessary interventions.

Abstract	The normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) and enhanced vegetation index (EVI) derived from Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) satellite imagery are widely used for crop yield analysis. However, the growth metrics derived from the MODIS NDVI or EVI have so far not been explored and applied to crop yield yet. To the best of our knowledge, this study is the first to design NDVI- and EVI-based crop growth metrics, which biometrically capture the status and trend of crop growth and thus could be more powerful for growth yield management. We developed 19 NDVI- and EVI-based growth metrics, respectively, to monitor crop growth and yield, which is based on a time series of MODIS Terra 16-day 250 m data product from 2000 to 2018. Among the NDVI- and EVI-based vegetation growth metrics (VGM), the maximum (VGMmax), the integrated (VGMinteg), the sum of green-up (VGMsumgrn), the 70 days growth stage (VGM70), 85 days growth stage (VGM85), and 98 days growth stage (VGM98), the sum of 85 days growth stage (VGM85total), and the sum of 98 days growth stage (VGM98total) are mentionable. In this study, we implemented these crop growth metrics for soybean crop yield modeling at Mississippi Delta, Mississippi, USA. Soybean is a major crop cultivated in this region that is consisted of a total of 18 counties with similar agricultural cropping patterns. We observed that NDVI- and EVI-based VGMmax, VGM70, VGM85, VGM98total fitted models best with R-Square about 0.95. Using cross-validation of 80% train and 20% test size, we found NDVI-based VGM85 (e.g., normalized mean prediction error (NMPE) = 0.034) and EVI-based VGMmax (NMPE = 0.033) were the best fit linear yield models for this region. Designing novel crop growth indices based on crop phenological and ecological characteristics, this study further showed NDVI- and EVI-based growth metrics for crop growth monitoring and yield modeling. These growth metrics can be applied to other types of crop monitoring in different climate zones.

Abstract	Climate change and its impact on agriculture are challenging issues regarding food production and food security. Many researchers have been trying to show the direct and indirect impacts of climate change on agriculture using different methods. In this study, we used linear regression models to assess the impact of climate on crop yield spatially and temporally by managing irrigated and non-irrigated crop fields. The climate data used in this study are Tmax (maximum temperature), Tmean (mean temperature), Tmin (minimum temperature), precipitation, and soybean annual yields, at county scale for Mississippi, USA, from 1980 to 2019. We fit a series of linear models that were evaluated based on statistical measurements of adjusted R-square, Akaike Information Criterion (AIC), and Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC). According to the statistical model evaluation, the 1980–1992 model Y[Tmax,Tmin,Precipitation] 92i (BIC = 120.2) for irrigated zones and the 1993–2002 model Y[Tmax,Tmean,Precipitation] 02ni (BIC = 1128.9) for non-irrigated zones showed the best fit for the 10-year period of climatic impacts on crop yields. These models showed about 2 to 7% significant negative impact of Tmax increase on the crop yield for irrigated and non-irrigated regions. Besides, the models for different agricultural districts also explained the changes of Tmax, Tmean, Tmin, and precipitation in the irrigated (adjusted R-square: 13–28%) and non-irrigated zones (adjusted R-square: 8–73%). About 2–10% negative impact of Tmax was estimated across different agricultural districts, whereas about −2 to +17% impacts of precipitation were observed for different districts. The modeling of 40-year periods of the whole state of Mississippi estimated a negative impact of Tmax (about 2.7 to 8.34%) but a positive impact of Tmean (+8.9%) on crop yield during the crop growing season, for both irrigated and non-irrigated regions. Overall, we assessed that crop yields were negatively affected (about 2–8%) by the increase of Tmax during the growing ...

Abstract	Speech emotion recognition (SER) has grown to be one of the most trending research topics in computational linguistics in the last two decades. Speech being the primary communication medium, understanding the emotional state of humans from speech and responding accordingly have made the speech emotion recognition system an essential part of the human-computer interaction (HCI) field. Although there are a few review works carried out for SER, none of them discusses the development of SER system for the Indo-Aryan or Dravidian language families. This paper focuses on some studies carried out for the development of an automatic SER system for Indo-Aryan and Dravidian languages. Besides, it presents a brief study of the prominent databases available for SER experiments. Some remarkable research works on the identification of emotion from the speech signal in the last two decades have also been discussed in this paper.
