Review ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsVaccine against Jembrana Disease Virus Infection: A Summary FindingsAsmarani Kusumawati, Tenri Ashari Wanahari, Pudji Astuti et al.Jembrana disease constitutes the main concern in cattle industry especially in Indonesia and Australia as it has caused important economic losses due to mortality of cattle. The pathology of the disease is unusual for a lentivirus infection as it is associated with a severe, often lethal disease syndrome and a short incubation period in cattle. For lack of efficient medical … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 2 Sep 2015 · 7,851 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsApplication of Optimal Control to the Epidemiology of Fowl Pox Transmission Dynamics in PoultryUdofia Ekere Sunday, Inyama Simeon ChiomaProblem statement: In this study, we present the mathematical model of the transmission dynamics of fowl pox infection in poultry. Approach: It describes the interaction between the susceptible and the infected birds which results in a system of ordinary differential equation. Introducing the control which represents the effort in applying chemoprophylaxis control u1 and treatment control u2 in birds with … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 13 Jun 2012 · 6,955 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsHandwashing Practices amongst Health Workers in a Teaching HospitalBalafama Abinye Alex-Hart, Peace Ibo OparaProblem statement: Hand washing with soap is an important means of preventing hospital acquired infections .However the rate of hand washing with soap and water is unacceptably low amongst health workers. Few studies on this subject have been done amongst health workers in Nigeria. The aims of this study were to explore perceptions, attitudes and hand washing practices amongst health … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 27 Apr 2011 · 21,602 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMaternal and Fetal Outcome of COVID Positive Antenatal Women Treated With Tocilizumab in a Tertiary Care Center an Observational Cohort StudyJaimie T Jacob, S Lakshmi Vinodh, Aravind R et al.Tocilizumab, an IL-6 receptor inhibitor, halts the inflammatory stage of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection. However, there is little information on Tocilizumab's effects on antenatal women and new born. This study aims to assess the effects of Tocilizumab in treating antenatal women with severe COVID infection. To assess and compare the maternal and fetal outcomes of COVID … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 14 Sep 2026 · 654 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Systematic Review of Artificial Intelligence and Deep Learning Approaches for Cocoa Pod Disease DetectionHenry Techie-Menson, Michael Asante, Yaw Marfo Missah et al.Cocoa pod diseases destroy an estimated 700,000 metric tons of cocoa annually, threatening 40–50 million smallholder farmers across tropical regions. Accurate field diagnosis remains constrained by symptom similarity, labour-intensive scouting, and limited specialist access in remote communities. This paper presents a PRISMA-guided systematic review of 25 peer-reviewed studies on automated cocoa pod disease detection and classification (2016–2026), addressing architectural approaches, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 8 · 8 Sep 2026 · 733 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEpsilon-Insensitive Primal Loss With Support Vector Machine for Robust Cotton Leaf Disease ClassificationPavana Kumar Eramachetty Dhanajayalu, Malathi Sivasamy, Chitveli Siva Balaji YadavCotton diseases significantly reduce both yield and quality of crops, making early and accurate identification of the disease crucial for effective prevention and control. However, achieving a balance between lightweight models and precise classification of cotton diseases remains challenging. This difficulty arises primarily from the dispersed nature of disease symptoms and interference from noisy backgrounds, which complicate the detection process. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 6 · 5 Aug 2026 · 755 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of Integrated Nursing and Digital Droplet PCR on Bullous Dermatoid Conditions: A Randomized Controlled TrialConghui ChenBullous skin disease is an autoimmune disease characterized by the formation of blisters on the skin or mucous membrane, which seriously impairs the quality of life and overall health. Similar to the research on biomolecules (mechanics of protein interaction), cells (including cell membrane elasticity, cell adhesion, cytoskeletal dynamics, response to mechanical stimulation, cell deformation and cell endoforce transfer) and tissue … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 2 · 2 Jul 2026 · 985 accessesView PDFCite

Conventional fungicides, while effective, raise concerns regarding environmental safety and human health, highlighting the urgent need for sustainable alternatives. In this study, we report for the first time the use of Origanum compactum essential oil to biosynthesize silver nanoparticles … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 2 · 2 Jun 2026 · 1,298 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImplementation and Performance Evaluation of YOLOv8 for Wheat Fungal Disease DetectionShivani Sood, Shallu Duggal, Monika Sethi et al.Among the many difficulties in producing wheat, a vital food source for the world, there are biotic variables like fungal diseases, which drastically lower crop output. Around the world, biotrophic fungi particularly, leaf rust, powdery mildew, and yellow rusts-have become a constant threat to wheat production. Traditional methods of identification and mitigation are labor-intensive, slow, and imprecise, limiting therefore early … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 4 · 2 May 2026 · 1,599 accessesView PDFCite
