    Abstract Nowadays, wireless sensor networks (WSN) have gained huge attention worldwide due to their wide applications in different domains. The limited amount of energy resources is considered as the main limitations of WSN, which generally affect the network life time. Hence, a dynamic clustering and routing model is designed to resolve this issue. In this research work, a deep-learning model is employed for the prediction of energy and an optimization algorithmic technique is designed for the determination of optimal routes. Initially, the dynamic cluster WSN is simulated using energy, mobility, trust, and Link Life Time (LLT) models. The deep neuro-fuzzy network (DNFN) is utilized for the prediction of residual energy of nodes and the cluster workloads are dynamically balanced by the dynamic clustering of data using a fuzzy system. The designed Flamingo Jellyfish Search Optimization (FJSO) model is used for tuning the weights of the fuzzy system by considering different fitness parameters. Moreover, routing is performed using FJSO model which is used for the identification of optimal path to transmit data. In addition, the experimentation is done using MATLAB tool and the results proved that the designed FJSO model attained maximum of 0.657J energy, a minimum of 0.739 m distance, 0.649 s delay, 0.849 trust, and 0.885 Mbps throughput.

    Abstract Purpose: Exposures to volatile organic compounds (VOCs) cause respiratory symptoms among children, a known vulnerable group. Reports on exposures to VOCs and respiratory symptoms among South Indian children living in biomass-using households are not available thus far.
    Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among 313 rural children to assess the influence of emitted VOCs on their respiratory health. Standard analytical procedures for VOCs and Pulmonary Function Test (PFT), allied questionnaires, and all ethical considerations were fulfilled in the study.
    Results: The increase in VOC concentrations was observed proportional to the amount of burnt biomass fuel in two selected sites in Tamil Nadu (TN) and Andhra Pradesh (AP). Houses cooked for more than 60 min showed a remarkable increase in VOC concentrations and was observed as statistically significant (p < 0.01) in AP households. Among the younger children, the peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR) values were found significantly higher than comparatively older children in both the sites, TN and AP. However, the trend with respect to FEV1 is statistically significant (p < 0.01) among AP children.
    Conclusions: This study reports reduced lung function for a considerable proportion of the VOC-exposed selected children. Based on PFT, the children who were interpreted to be normal were found to be exposed to lesser indoor TVOC concentrations in comparison with the children of the households having restrictive or obstructive impairments. Diagnostic ratios with Benzene/Toluene (B/T) and Xylene/Ethyl benzene (X/E) confirmed the presence of VOCs-emissions from adjacent cooking fuels only. The observed results of this study recommends cleaner cooking fuel-use for better respiratory health among the citizens across the country, which in turn, in line with the Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojana (PMUY), Government of India.

    Abstract Background:  Lymphedema is a severe post-mastectomy complication that still causes much morbidity in breast cancer patients with axillary lymph node dissection. Therefore, after mastectomy, lymphedema prevention is crucial for long-term survival and an increase in quality of life.
    Aim: The study's primary objective was to determine whether pre-discharge educational intervention sessions for post-mastectomy women effectively improve the knowledge in preventing arm lymphedema.
    Methodology: A quasi-experimental research study, one-group pretest-posttest design, was conducted in a teaching hospital in Bangalore. The sample included 80 females who were diagnosed with breast cancer, had recently undergone mastectomy, and had chemo and radiation therapy plans. Questions were based on the knowledge of lymphedema preventive concepts, including the definition of the lymphatic system and lymphedema, its causes, symptoms, prevention, and management, and were included in a structured self-administered questionnaire. Convenience sampling was used among women who had undergone mastectomy for breast cancer. The pre-discharge educational interventions session included instructions on a self or simple lymphatic drainage technique demonstration, arm exercises, and an e-brochure on risk reduction strategies and arm lymphedema prevention. The knowledge of pre-discharge educational intervention sessions highlighting risk reduction/prevention strategies among post-mastectomy women was evaluated using the self-structured knowledge questionnaire pretest and posttest data.
    Results: The entire study population comprised women who had undergone mastectomy. Almost half of the subjects were older than 55 years. Prior to the intervention, the majority of patients (58) had poor knowledge (72%) about preventing lymphedema, whereas nearly all patients (80) had good knowledge (100%) after the intervention sessions. All participants felt comfortable using the treatment plan to avoid arm lymphedema. The knowledge gain was statistically significant at the 0.05 level.
    Conclusions: It was determined that pre-discharge educational intervention sessions enhanced post-mastectomy women's awareness and risk reduction behaviors toward preventing arm lymphedema and reducing arm morbidity. Therefore, it is suggested that women who have had breast cancer surgery participate in a pre-discharge educational intervention program. This will guarantee that all mastectomy patients have access to educational information/materials and that risk reduction strategies are followed to prevent lymphedema.

    Abstract Aim The development of lymphedema post-breast-cancer surgery has been identified as a significant burden worldwide, with nurses at the forefront of prevention and risk reduction practices. Prevention is of crucial importance to avoid lymphedema formation and its complications. This study aims to assess the knowledge gained through an educational session regarding risk reduction and prevention of breast cancer-related lymphedema (BCRL) among nursing professionals and compare the pre-test and post-test knowledge. Methods and material The research approach was quantitative in nature, and the design adopted was a pre-experimental, one-group pre-test post-test design. The study was conducted in a 400-bed multispecialty teaching hospital in Bangalore, Karnataka. After obtaining formal permission from the authorities, the participants were approached and informed about the purpose of the study. Eighty-four staff nurses working with breast cancer-related lymphedema (BCRL) patients participated in the study. The data for the study was collected using a validated questionnaire based on the National Lymphedema Network's (NLN) breast cancer-related lymphedema (BCRL) risk reduction and preventive guidelines. The questionnaire consisted of two sections. Section A consisted of the staff nurses' demographic data, and Section B consisted of questions on risk reduction and prevention of lymphedema. The pre-test was conducted, followed by a structured teaching session on risk reduction and prevention of lymphedema among 84 staff nurses working with BCRL patients. After the teaching session, the post-test was conducted. Results Descriptive and inferential statistics were used for analysis in this study. The t-test determined the statistical significance using the software SPSS (SPSS Inc. Released 2007. SPSS for Windows, Version 16.0. Chicago, SPSS Inc.). The result showed that the mean knowledge score was 4.286 with SD 0.97 in the pre-test, which increased to 4.452 with SD 1.511 with a significant p-value (<0.001).  Conclusion According to the study's findings, nurses must get standardized lymphedema training in order to prevent lymphedema from developing in patients having breast cancer surgery. The study's outcome has implications on the focus areas for nurses in the context of the team's adoption and dissemination of breast cancer-related lymphedema preventive measures. Key messages of this study are - 1) BCRL is an irreversible, progressive complication with no cure if not diagnosed early. 2) Poor knowledge of lymphedema prevention among nurses leads to frustration for BCRL patients. 3) Risk reduction and prevention education enable the patient to reduce BCRL complications, minimize the severity of the condition, and improve the quality of life. 4) Pre-habilitation - patient education on early diagnosis and risk reduction/prevention of BCRL reduces the cost, time, and energy for the patient and health care delivery system.

    Abstract Dementia with Lewy Bodies is a neurodegenerative disorder characterised by abnormal α-Synuclein aggregate accumulation in Lewy Bodies and Lewy Neurites and the most common form of dementia after Alzheimer's disease. The presynaptic protein alpha-synuclein (α-Syn) regulates synaptic vesicle trafficking and the subsequent release of neurotransmitters in the brain. These aggregates go through a number of crucial stages, such as aggregation, oligomerization, and fibrillation. Treatment of this disorder is generally symptomatic. This necessitates the development of cutting-edge therapeutic approaches that can either stop or change the course of the diseases. Many studies have shown that α-synuclein is a significant therapeutic target and that inhibiting α-synuclein aggregation, oligomerization, and fibrillation is an important disease-modifying strategy. Since α-syn is a defining feature of Parkinson's disease, the current review provides an overview of plant phytochemicals and synthetic heterocyclic compounds that target α-syn in Parkinson's disease in order to develop new drugs for Dementia with Lewy Bodies.
