A review on development of eco-friendly filters in Nepal for use in cigarettes and masks and Air Pollution Analysis with Machine Learning and SHAP Interpretability [PDF]

arXiv
In Nepal, air pollution is a serious public health concern, especially in cities like Kathmandu where particulate matter (PM2.5 and PM10) has a major influence on respiratory health and air quality. The Air Quality Index (AQI) is predicted in this work using a Random Forest Regressor, and the model's predictions are interpreted using SHAP (SHapley ...

Enhancing Plastic Decomposition in Mealworms (Tenebrio molitor): The Role of Nutritional Amino Acids and Water

Advanced Energy and Sustainability Research, EarlyView.
The decomposition of single‐use plastics by selected insects is often sustained or enhanced through the addition of natural supplements or feeds. Herein, the rationale behind these choices is demonstrated by examining the effects of selected amino acids and water as enhancers in the biodegradation of polystyrene by mealworms.

Genetic predisposition to porto‐sinusoidal vascular disorder: A functional genomic‐based, multigenerational family study

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
A deleterious variant of FCHSD1 results in mTOR pathway overactivation and may cause porto‐sinusoidal vascular disorder (PSVD). The pedigree of the family demonstrated an autosomal dominant disease with variable expressivity. Whole‐genome sequencing and Sanger sequencing both validated the existence of the FCHSD1 variant and the heterozygosity of c ...
