Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAutomobile Spray Paint Dust and Human Health: A Multi-Site Environmental Health Risk Assessment of Carcinogenic and Non-Carcinogenic Effects in South-Eastern NigeriaAdindu Ihuoma Blossom, Ubouh Emmanuel Attah, Obasi Kalu Omokorie, Raimi Morufu OlalekanInformal automobile spray-painting operations release metal-laden dust, posing occupational and residential health risks. Seasonal variations, receptor-specific exposure, and metal composition influence non-carcinogenic and carcinogenic hazards, yet data from South-Eastern Nigeria remain limited. This study quantified heavy-metal exposure in automobile spray-paint dust, assessed receptor-specific non-carcinogenic (HI) and carcinogenic (ILCR) risks, examined seasonal and metal-specific trends, and evaluated source attribution to inform … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 22 Jun 2026 · 1,555 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRisk Assessment of Healthcare Information Systems in Indonesian Regional Government Hospitals Using ISO 27001:2022Deo Alif Alfitrah, Nilo LeegowoThe growing number of cyber-attacks targeting the healthcare sector, particularly Indonesian regional government hospitals, reflects the absence of a structured information security management system. Issues such as shared account usage, lack of staff security training, and undocumented incident reporting present serious risks to patient data. This study aims to assess the current state of information security in a government hospital … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 13 Mar 2026 · 2,416 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigating Campylobacter Spp. in Mekong Delta Duck Farms: Prevalence, Risk Factors, and Antibiotic ResistanceNguyen Vu Thuy Hong Loan, Le Trung Kien, Do Ngoc Yen Phuong et al.Campylobacter spp. is a leading cause of gastroenteritis worldwide, contributing to significant health and economic burdens, especially in poor hygiene practices. Investigating this bacterium's prevalence and antibiotic resistance in ducks from the Mekong Delta is essential, as the region's extensive duck farming industry presents a potential risk for transmission to humans through the food chain. During August 2024 to February … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 4 · 8 Feb 2026 · 1,615 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of Areas Susceptible to Gullies in Ideato South Local Government Area of Nigeria Using Geographic Information System and Remote Sensing TechnologySylvanus IroGully erosion is a critical environmental hazard in Southeastern Nigeria, threatening agricultural productivity, infrastructure, and communal safety. This study provides a spatially explicit assessment of gully erosion susceptibility in Ideato South Local Government Area (LGA), Imo State, using an integrated Geographic Information System (GIS) and Remote Sensing framework. The methodology employed a multi-criteria decision-making approach, utilizing the Analytical Hierarchy Process … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 20 Jul 2026 · 1,189 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPost-COVID Impact Analysis and Effective Recommendation Solutions Over Risk Prediction Using Hybrid ModelBoddeti Jaggan Mohan Ravi Kumar, P. V. G. D. Prasad Reddy, G SrinivasThe COVID-19 pandemic (2019-2022) resulted in significant global mortality, largely attributed to the virus's unpredictable pathophysiology, rapid disease progression affecting multiple organ systems, and initial lack of effective treatments. This study systematically examines post-COVID-19 complications across major organ systems, including respiratory dysfunction, cardiovascular complications, renal disorders, musculoskeletal pain, gastrointestinal disturbances, neurological sequelae, alopecia, endocrine and metabolic dysregulation, and mental health … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 11 · 23 Dec 2025 · 1,643 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDeep Sense: Deep Learning for Early Staging the Onset of Diabetes Emanating Recognition of Activity PatternsMohammed Shamsul Alam, Erfanul Hoque Bahadur, Md Fokrul Islam Khan et al.This study presents a comprehensive framework for Human Activity Recognition (HAR) using smartphone sensor data, with a specific focus on identifying activities associated with diabetic risk factors. We investigate the efficacy of two deep learning architectures (Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks and Graph Convolutional Networks (GCNs)) for activity recognition under conditions of limited training data. To address data scarcity, we … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 10 · 15 Dec 2025 · 2,268 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGenetic Testing for Inherited Thrombophilia in Women with Recurrent Pregnancy Loss: Prevalence and Risk Assessment of Factor V Leiden, Prothrombin, and MTHFR MutationsLina M. Al Momani, Manal A. AbbasGenetic testing for inherited thrombophilia in women with recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) may play an important role in detecting high-risk subjects. DNA was extracted from peripheral blood leukocytes. The high pure polymerase chain reaction template preparation kit and Reverse hybridization technique were used to detect the presence of factor V (G1691A, Leiden) (FVL), Factor II (prothrombin, G20210A), and 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 4 · 29 Nov 2025 · 2,559 accessesView PDF Cite
