    Abstract Dermoscopic images ideally depict pigmentation attributes on the skin surface which is highly regarded in the medical community for detection of skin abnormality, disease or even cancer. The identification of such abnormality, however, requires trained eyes and accurate detection necessitates the process being time-intensive. As such, computerized detection schemes have become quite an essential, especially schemes which adopt deep learning tactics. In this paper, a convolutional deep neural network, S

    Abstract Trust has emerged as a pillar in the acceptance and use of new technologies in the ever-changing digital landscape, notably in the booming field of social commerce. The importance of this study lies in the fact that it explores in-depth the aspects of customer trust in Instashopping using new constructs that have yet to be explored in s-commerce literature. Focusing on Instashopping, the research proposed a multi-dimensional model of trust to examine the dynamics of user trust in social commerce platforms and analyses the effects of various factors, including institution-based trust, disposition to trust, personal inventiveness, perceived page quality, and overall web experience. Structural equation modelling and confirmatory factor analysis were used to examine data from 267 responses in a survey of university students in the United Arab Emirates who have used Instagram for shopping. The analysis showed that user trust and trusting beliefs were significantly influenced by the disposition to trust, institution-based trust, and general web experience. Still, no significant association was found between perceived site quality and trusting beliefs. These findings highlight the crucial part that user trust plays in social commerce platform success and how important it is for online platforms to build and maintain user trust. The work also contributes theoretically to the knowledge body by comprehensively analysing trust dynamics in social commerce. In practice, the knowledge gained can help organisations plan their strategy for gaining and keeping client trust, which is essential for long-term success in the digital arena. To ensure long-term success, organisations must emphasise building and maintaining customer trust.

    Abstract Egypt’s Haya Karima (HK) Initiative aims at improving the quality of life in the country’s rural communities through interventions related to human development, infrastructure, and economic sectors. This presidential initiative, whose name translates to “Decent Life” in English, has four strategic goals, all targeting Egypt’s rural population: building human capital, improving quality of life, improving the standard of living for the most vulnerable, and providing decent and productive job opportunities. The initiative is aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the objectives of Egypt Vision 2030. HK aims to not only curb material poverty but also multidimensional poverty by expanding the umbrella of comprehensive social protection, with a focus on education, health, infrastructure, and employment. It also focuses on achieving the goal of geographical equity by addressing regional disparities that affect rural areas such as Upper Egypt. Here, we describe a recently completed study that assesses the economywide effects of the first phase of HK. The analysis was done by the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI), in collaboration with Egypt’s Ministry of Economic Planning and Development (MPED) under the project Evaluating Impact and Building Capacity (EIBC), funded by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID).

    Abstract Hemoglobin S/O<sub>Arab</sub> (Hgb S/O<sub>Arab</sub>) disease is a rare hemoglobinopathy which presents similarly to sickle cell retinopathy, with only three prior reports that describe associated retinal findings. In this report, we present ophthalmic examination findings in 2 patients with Hgb S/O<sub>Arab</sub>. One patient exhibited peripheral ischemia and sunburst lesions without neovascular disease, and the other patient developed proliferative retinopathy of both eyes and multiple posterior-pole branch retinal artery occlusions in one eye. To our knowledge, this is the first case of retinal arterial occlusive disease in Hgb S/O<sub>Arab</sub>, and the first report of fundus autofluorescence and OCT angiography in Hgb/O<sub>Arab</sub> retinopathy.

    Abstract Background: Adenoid cystic carcinoma (AdCC) is a rare and relatively heterogenous salivary gland malignancy, for which there is debate regarding grading, and clinical prognostic factors, including the role of adjuvant radiotherapy.
    Methods: Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) data were reviewed for AdCC cases from 2000 to 2018.
    Results: A total of 1978 patients with AdCC were identified. Most patients were between 50 and 59 years of age (21.4 %), female (59.9 %), and Caucasian (76.8 %). Most tumors were localized at presentation (44.3 %), and moderately differentiated (or grade II) (43.7 %). Overall and DSS 5-year survival rates were 70.7 % (95 % CI, 69.9-78.8), and 78.6 % (95 % CI, 77.6-79.6). The best overall 5-year survival rate was observed for those treated with surgery plus radiation, 76.8 % (95 % CI, 75.5-78.1). Multivariate analysis revealed male sex, age > 65 (H.R. 2.659 (95 % CI,2.291-3.098), p < .001), grade III/IV (H.R.5.172 (95 % CI, 3.418-7.824), p < .001), nodal metastasis, distant metastasis (H.R. 2.400 (95 % CI, 2.178-2.645), p < .001), chemotherapy only, and combination therapy as negative prognostic factors, and receiving surgery plus radiation therapy (H.R.0.586 (95 % CI, 0.505-0.679), p < .001) as a positive prognostic factor. When limited just to the lungs, had much better survival than those patients with distant metastases to other sites such as the bones and liver (p < .001).
    Conclusion: This SEER study identifies grade, particularly III and IV, to be the strongest single predictor of worse survival. Patients did best when treated with surgery and postoperative radiotherapy. These results can inform future management of patients with this challenging cancer type.
