Article Abstract

This systematic review critically evaluates the current state and future potential of real-time, end-to-end smart, and automated irrigation management systems, focusing on integrating the Internet of Things (IoTs) and machine learning technologies for enhanced agricultural water use efficiency and crop productivity. In this review, the automation of each component is examined in the irrigation management pipeline from data collection to application while analyzing its effectiveness, efficiency, and integration with various precision agriculture technologies. It also investigates the role of the interoperability, standardization, and cybersecurity of IoT-based automated solutions for irrigation applications. Furthermore, in this review, the existing gaps are identified and solutions are proposed for seamless integration across multiple sensor suites for automated systems, aiming to achieve fully autonomous and scalable irrigation management. The findings highlight the transformative potential of automated irrigation systems to address global food challenges by optimizing water use and maximizing crop yields.

Fungal cerebral aneurysms, particularly those resulting from direct invasion by fungal sinusitis, are rare and often fatal when involving the cavernous segment of the internal carotid artery (ICA). We present a case of a ruptured fungal ICA aneurysm caused by sinusitis, successfully treated with parent artery occlusion (PAO). In this case, an 80-year-old woman presented with right ptosis, facial pain, and cranial nerve III, IV, and VI palsies.

Brown root rot, caused by Phellinus noxius, is a major threat to rubber tree cultivation, resulting in substantial economic losses. Traditional control methods, such as root irrigation with fungicides, are labor-intensive, water-consuming, and inefficient, particularly in regions with limited water resources. This study introduces fluorescent mesoporous silica nanoparticles (FL-MSNs) as a novel delivery platform for tebuconazole to target P.

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are persistent organic pollutants with increasing prevalence in agricultural soils, primarily introduced through biosolid application, wastewater irrigation, and atmospheric deposition. This review provides a meta-analysis of terminologies across 145 peer-reviewed studies, identifying inconsistency in the classification of PFAS subgroups-such as "long-chain vs. short-chain," "precursors," and "emerging PFAS"-which hinders regulatory harmonization and model calibration.
