    Today, e-trade sites are giving colossal number of a platform to clients in which they can express their perspectives,  their suppositions and post their audits about the items on the web. Such substance helped by clients is accessible for different clients and makers as a significant wellspring of data.  This data is useful in taking imperative business choices.  Despite the fact that this data impact the purchasing choice of a client, however quality control on this client created information is not guaranteed, as audit area is an open stage accessible to all. anybody  can  compose  anything  on  web  which may incorporate surveys which are not true. as the prevalence of e-commerce destinations are hugely expanding, nature of the surveys is deteriorating step by step subsequently influencing clients’ purchasing choices. This has turned into an enormous social issue.  From numerous years, email spam and web spam were the two primary highlighted social issues. at the same time these days, because of notoriety of clients’ enthusiasm toward internet shopping and their reliance on the online audits, it turned into a real focus for audit spammers to delude clients by composing sham surveys for target items. To the best of our insight, very little study is accounted for in regards to this issue reliability of online reviews. To begin with paper was distributed in 2007 by NITIN  JINDAL  &  BING  LIU in regards to  review Spam detection.  In the past few years, variety of techniques has been recommended by researchers to accord with this trouble. This paper intends to introduce Suspicious review Classifier model (SrC) for identifying suspicious review, review spammers and their group

    Hydrocarbon-Selective catalytic reduction (HC-SCR) is one of the potential methods to remove NOx emissions from diesel engine, lean burn petrol engines and natural gas engines exhaust. Ag/Al2O3 is a good catalyst for HC-SCR of NOx under lean-burn conditions. Further, addition of small amount of H2 is effective for enhancing HC-SCR activity. This effect is unique to silver and to specific Ag/support combinations, namely, Ag/Îł-Al2O3. Various HC reductants, such as: octane, decane, dodecane and propane, have been reported in the literatures. Only a single study on LPG as a reductant over Cu-ZSM catalyst was reported. There was no work reported on H2 assisted LPG over Ag/Al2O3 catalyst. Thus, this gap in the literature is filled with the present investigation of NO reduction over 2 wt.% Ag/Al2O3 catalyst using LPG reductant. The fresh and used catalyst was characterized by various techniques like low temperature N2-adsorption, XRD, XPS and SEM. There was practically no change in the characteristics of the fresh and used catalyst. Two different reductants of CO and LPG were compared for SCR of NO over the catalyst without and with H2-assisted. The experiments were performed in a fixed bed tubular flow reactor under the following conditions: 100mg catalyst; 0.13% NO, 2.5% LPG/CO, 1% H2, 10% O2, rest Ar; total flow rate 60 mL/min; temperature ambient 400 oC and pressure 1 atm. Around 100% conversion of NO was achieved using LPG reductant. Light off temperature of NO reduction significantly reduced by H2assisted LPG reductant. The maximum conversion of NO with CO was limited to 35.15% at temperature of 224 oC and above. Whereas, 97.79 % NO conversion was achieved at 365 oC with LPG reductant. While, the maximum conversions with H2-LPG and H2-CO reductants were 100 and 99.46% at 117 and 220 oC, respectively. Therefore, H2-LPG-SCR of NOx over 2 wt.% Ag/Al2O3 catalyst system can be used to get 100% reduction at low temperature.

    The super packed functionalities and artificial intelligence (AI)-powered applications have made the Android operating system a big player in the market. Android smartphones have become an integral part of life and users are reliant on their smart devices for making calls, sending text messages, navigation, games, and financial transactions to name a few. This evolution of the smartphone community has opened new horizons for malware developers. As malware variants are growing at a tremendous rate every year, there is an urgent need to combat against stealth malware techniques. This paper proposes a visualization and machine learning-based framework for classifying Android malware. Android malware applications from the DREBIN dataset were converted into grayscale images. In the first phase of the experiment, the proposed framework transforms Android malware into fifteen different image sections and identifies malware files by exploiting handcrafted features associated with Android malware images. The algorithms such as Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix-based (GLCM), Global Image deScripTors (GIST), and Local Binary Pattern (LBP) are used to extract the handcrafted features from the image sections. The extracted features were further classified using machine learning algorithms like K-Nearest Neighbors, Support Vector Machines, and Random Forests. In the second phase of the experiment, handcrafted features were fused with CNN features to form the feature fusion strategy. The classification performance was evaluated against every malware image file section. The results obtained using the Feature Fusion strategy are compared with handcrafted features results. The experiment results conclude to the fact that Feature Fusion-SVM model is most suited for the identification and classification of Android malware using the certificate and Android Manifest (CR + AM) malware images. It attained an high accuracy of 93.24%

    Introduction:  This pilot cross-sectional study intended to explore the relationship between Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), Bronchial Asthma, and serum lipid levels (HDL, LDL, Total Cholesterol, Triglycerides) as well as serum urea and creatinine. Conducted at Patna Medical College and Hospital, Patna it involved 21 clinically diagnosed stable COPD and bronchial asthma patients. The study cohort was categorized into Mild, Moderate, and Severe COPD based on GOLD criteria.                           Methods:  Data collection involved detailed medical histories and fasting blood specimens. Serum lipids were assessed via enzymatic colorimetric assays, and LDL, HDL, and total cholesterol levels were calculated. Fasting and postprandial blood sugar levels were measured. Results:  The study revealed associations between COPD severity and lipid profiles. Notably, Total Cholesterol was 177.19 mg/dL, HDL was 41.87 mg/dL, LDL was 109.92 mg/dL, and Triglycerides were 115.58 mg/dL. An increase in airway resistance, detectable with an impulse oscillometer, was observed even with minor airway alterations. The study indicated significant correlations between serum triglycerides, LDL, LDL/HDL ratio, cholesterol/HDL ratio, and elevated airway resistance in individuals with bronchial asthma and COPD. Conclusion:  This pilot study provides initial insights into the interplay between COPD, Bronchial Asthma, and lipid profiles. While lipid findings generally fell within the normal range, elevated LDL levels emphasize the need for monitoring and potential interventions to mitigate cardiovascular risk in COPD patients.  Recommendations:  Healthcare providers should regularly monitor serum lipid levels, urea, and creatinine in COPD and bronchial asthma patients, particularly those with severe COPD, to detect and manage abnormalities early, potentially enhancing patient outcomes. Further research with larger sample sizes is required to validate these findings and develop comprehensive guidelines for the care of COPD and bronchial asthma patients

    Background: Obese people have a higher prevalence of cardiovascular disease, though unknown mechanism, supposed to be due to autonomic dysfunction which is still in controversy. This study aimed to assess and compare heart rate variability (HRV) between normotensive obese and adults.Methods: The study was conducted on 30 normotensive obese adults (mean age 32.07±7.25 years) with BMI>30 and 29 age- and sex-matched normal weight controls (mean age 30.48±8.01 years) with BMI: 18-24 Kg/m2. Short-term HRV variables were assessed using standard protocol. The data were compared between the groups using Mann Whitney ‘U’ test.Results: In obese group, there was significant increase in the mean heart rate [79.17±8.80 Vs 71.48±8.41 beats/min, p=0.001], systolic blood pressure [121.20±9.89 Vs 113.24±11.07, mmHg, p=0.004] and diastolic blood pressure [84.97±7.87 Vs 74.83±10.31 mmHg, p=0.000]. The HRV parasympathetic indicators were less [RMSSD {28.75(16.72-38.35) Vs 41.55(30.6-56.75) ms, p=0.018}, NN50 {15.5(2-39) Vs 83.5(32.75-116.25), p=0.010}], and sympathetic indicator LF/HF ratio [1.2(0.65-2.20) Vs 0.79(0.5-1.02), p=0.004] was more in obese group.Conclusions: Obese persons have increased sympathetic activity with a reduction in parasympathetic (vagal) tone indicating poor autonomic cardiac rhythm control. Moreover, the altered autonomic activity could be the reason for increased mean heart rate and blood pressures in normotensive obese persons

    ABSTRACT Context Dieulafoy's lesion is an unusual cause of gastrointestinal bleeding with the most common location being the stomach. A periampullary location is rare for a bleeding Dieulafoy's lesion. Case report We present the case of a 52-year-old female who presented with intermittent painless melena. Her upper gastrointestinal endoscopy and colonoscopy were normal. She was a diagnostic challenge as no definite lesion could be identified on capsule endoscopy. However, as there was presence of fresh blood in the proximal jejunum, a push enteroscopy was performed which revealed the presence of fresh blood in the duodenum and proximal jejunum. But no bleeding lesion could be identified. A side view endoscopy was performed which revealed a bleeding periampullary Dieulafoy's lesion. Immediate hemostasis was achieved with an injection of adrenalin. Other episodes of bleeding occurred and the patient was finally treated surgically. Conclusion A periampullary Dieulafoy's lesion presenting with obscure gastrointestinal bleed is a diagnostic challenge and can be missed on capsule endoscopy
