Covid-19 diagnosis using privacy-preserving data monitoring: an explainable AI deep learning model with blockchain security.

The COVID-19 pandemic emphasised necessity for prompt, precise diagnostics, secure data storage, and robust privacy protection in healthcare. Existing diagnostic systems often suffer from limited transparency, inadequate performance, and challenges in ensuring data security and privacy. The research proposes a novel privacy-preserving diagnostic framework, Heterogeneous Convolutional-recurrent attention Transfer learning based ResNeXt with Modified Greater Cane Rat optimisation (HCTR-MGR), that integrates deep learning, Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI), and blockchain technology.

2D Materials-Based Aptamer Biosensors: Present Status and Way Forward.

Current advances in constructing functional nanomaterials and elegantly designed nanostructures have opened up new possibilities for the fabrication of viable field biosensors. Two-dimensional materials (2DMs) have fascinated much attention due to their chemical, optical, physicochemical, and electronic properties. They are ultrathin nanomaterials with unique properties such as high surface-to-volume ratio, surface charge, shape, high anisotropy, and adjustable chemical functionality.

Inhibition of Advanced Glycation End Product Formation in Rat Tail Tendons by Polydatin and p-Coumaric acid: an In Vitro Study.

Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) formed through non-enzymatic glycosylation between a protein and sugar molecule are highly harmful to the human body. In hyperglycemic patients, AGE formation is more due to high glucose circulating in the blood, causing inter and intra molecular cross-linking of collagen leading to reduction of collagen elasticity. This cross-linked collagen develops resistance to matrix metalloproteinases leading to impaired collagen turnover.

Synthesis of some newer analogues of substituted dibenzoyl phenol as potent anti-inflammatory agents.

Benzoylation of hydroxybenzophenones 1a-f affords substituted benzoyl phenyl benzoates 3a-f, which on Fries rearrangement using microwave irradiation led to a facile synthesis of solely dibenzoyl phenols 4a-f in excellent yield. The newly synthesized compounds were screened for their anti-inflammatory activity and were compared with standard drugs. Out of the compounds studied, the compound 4e showed more potent activity than the standard drugs at all doses tested.
