Article Synopsis
  • - The study tested the protective effects of thiocyanate (SCN) against paraquat (PQ)-induced kidney damage in albino rats, using four groups: control, PQ-only, PQ with SCN, and SCN-only.
  • - PQ exposure decreased Nrf2 and its protective genes while increasing keap1, leading to reduced antioxidant enzyme activity and elevated markers of oxidative stress and kidney injury, such as MDA, ROS, and NGAL.
  • - SCN treatment helped restore the harmful changes caused by PQ, demonstrating its potential benefits through its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-apoptotic properties.

Examination cheating activities like whispering, head movements, hand movements, or hand contact are extensively involved, and the rectitude and worthiness of fair and unbiased examination are prohibited by such cheating activities. The aim of this research is to develop a model to supervise or control unethical activities in real-time examinations. Exam supervision is fallible due to limited human abilities and capacity to handle students in examination centers, and these errors can be reduced with the help of the Automatic Invigilation System.
