Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProduction of an Achillea millefolium (Yarrow) Toothpaste to Combat Gum and Tooth PainMunashe K. F. Chakamanga, Ashley Kumalo K, Dirk Hamadziripi MGum inflammation also known as gingivitis is primarily caused by the accumulation of dental plaque that forms on teeth. The inflammation triggers pain in the gums and surrounding tissues due to increased blood flow and immune activity aimed at combating the bacterial infection. Thus, this study was carried out to investigate the efficacy of Yarrow-based toothpaste in reducing gum inflammation. … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 4 · 9 Oct 2026 · 440 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEcological Situation of Poplar Species in the Aral Sea Region of KazakhstanBaikenzheyeva Ainur, Kurmanbayev Rakhat, Toktaganova Gulzhas et al.The study was conducted in response to the deteriorating environmental conditions in the Aral Sea region of Kazakhstan, characterized by the degradation of natural ecosystems, loss of biodiversity, and the disappearance of valuable tree species. Of particular importance is the investigation of the current status of populations of Populus pruinosa Schrenk and Populus diversifolia Schrenk, relic tree species of the … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 4 · 30 Sep 2026 · 588 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of an Intelligent Electronic Prescription Ontology Using Open Source Tools: A Botswana Case StudyTshiamo Sigwele, Eunice Okon, Tshepiso Mokgetse, Onkemetse TshenyegoHealthcare interoperability in Botswana is hindered by fragmented information exchange across public and private providers, resulting in prescription conflicts, duplicated treatment, and delayed care. In prior work, we developed the Intelligent Electronic Prescription Ontology (IEPO), an open-source OWL 2 ontology for semantically standardized prescription data exchange. Although IEPO was previously validated using competency question-driven metrics (recall, precision, and F1-score), those … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 10 · 29 Sep 2026 · 513 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Bibliometric and Scientometric Analysis of the Marine Biotechnology Research Using CiteSpace: A Web of Science Based Study (1980-2023)Jasnizat Saidin, Idham Sumarto Pratama, Mohamad Nor Azra et al.A growing interest in marine biotechnology has spurred the exploitation of oceanic resources for novel products. However, a comprehensive, data-driven mapping of this evolving landscape remains limited. This study presents a systematic scientometric analysis using CiteSpace to map global research trends and structural knowledge domains in marine biotechnology. Utilizing metadata extracted from the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) database, … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 3 · 28 Sep 2026 · 519 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEmpowering Small Language Models With Chain of Thought and Parameter Efficient Fine Tuning for Efficient Deep ReasoningAryan Raina, Shiwani Gupta, Jagruti Jadhav et al.Small Language Models (SLMs) run faster and fit on modest hardware, yet solving multi-step logic problems has traditionally been difficult for them. This work investigates a systematic, multi-model framework that combines Chain-of-Thought (CoT) prompting with Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) parameter-efficient fine-tuning, and measures the contribution of each component independently. We evaluate three SLMs (TinyLlama-1.1B, Phi-3-mini-4k-instruct, and Qwen2.5-1.5B) using 1,164 training samples … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 8 · 8 Sep 2026 · 869 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessing the Gender Dimensions of Drug Abuse Among Women and Girls in Maiduguri: Challenges and ImplicationsFredrick WilsonThis study examines the gender-specific dimensions of drug abuse among women and girls in Maiduguri, North East Nigeria, a region affected by insurgency, poverty, and restrictive socio-cultural norms. While national data indicate rising female substance use, interventions and research have largely overlooked women’s unique challenges. Drawing on in-depth interviews and focus group discussions, the study explores structural, emotional, and socio-cultural … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 7 Sep 2026 · 816 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Aspiration for Becoming a Celebrity or Hero: A Comparative Study Across the United States, Iran, and AfghanistanJeremy Grabbe, Amir Mostafa AhadiThe present study examined cross-cultural differences in the desire to become a celebrity or a hero across samples from the United States, Iran, and Afghanistan. Building on prior findings that individuals in the United States may prefer heroism over celebrity status, the current study explored whether this pattern generalizes across differing cultural contexts. Participants completed the Celebrity Attitude Scale Brief … …Current Research in Psychology, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 15 Aug 2026 · 1,213 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSeasonal Pattern of Varroa Mite Infestation and Its Impact on Honey Production in Apis mellifera Beekeeping in Chitwan, NepalSujan Amgai, Kedar DevkotaHoneybee colony health and productivity are severely affected by infestations of Varroa mites, which have become one of the most significant threats to apiculture due to their role in colony weakening, reduced productivity, and increased colony losses worldwide. The study was conducted in Chitwan district to assess beekeepers’ perceptions on mite infestation in different seasons, its effect on honey production, … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 14 Aug 2026 · 1,245 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImplementing a Hybrid VMD–BiTCN–BiGRU Architecture With Intelligent Optimization for Agricultural Commodity Price Prognostication in Gujarat MarketsJignesh Hirapara, Ratnesh Kumar Namdeo, Ankit Kumar Dubey et al.In the agricultural sector, the prices of pulses require adequate forecasting to plan farming activities, store and market, and guide policy-making. However, the pulse price series is highly volatile, seasonal, nonstationary, and nonlinear, and thus conventional linear time series models are not necessarily very effective. In the suggested framework, the raw price data series is decomposed using Variational Mode Decomposition … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 7 · 1 Aug 2026 · 1,042 accessesView PDFCite
