Introduction: Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is an innovative approachfor the treatment of neurological injuries. Objective: This study aimed to investigate the benefits of combining physiotherapeutic intervention with tDCSto improve functionality, balance, and pain levelsin patients with neurological sequelae. Methodology: Thisoriginal, experimental study includednine patients with neurological sequelae: two with adult ataxic cerebral palsy, four with stroke sequelae, two with spinal cord injury sequelae, and one with cerebral palsy.

Background: One of the most prevalent cancers afflicting people worldwide is leukemia. Leukemia was the eleventh leading cause of death from malignant illnesses worldwide in 2018, accounting for 437,033 cases and 309,006 fatalities, making it the fifteenth most prevalent diagnosed malignancy. Acute leukemias are malignant clonal illnesses of blood-forming organs that affect one or more hematopoietic system cell lines.

Spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (sICH) is a critical public health issue in Guyana, yet local data remain limited. This retrospective cross-sectional study reviewed medical records of 59 adult patients admitted with sICH at Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation from October 1, 2023, to March 31, 2024, to assess prevalence, risk factors, clinical presentation, treatment, and outcomes. Of 137 stroke cases, sICH comprised 43.1%, predominantly affecting males (76.3%) aged 61-70 (30.5%), with hypertension (39%) as the leading risk factor.

Background: The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in endodontics has gained substantial attention in recent years, offering innovative solutions for diagnosis, treatment planning, and clinical decision-making. Given the increasing complexity of endodontic procedures and the limitations of human analysis in imaging, AI systems present a promising alternative to support dental professionals.

This scientific article aims to present the process of urban evolution of Teresina - Piauí, Brazil from 1800 to 1950 and discuss the influences of 18th century Portuguese urban planning on the city's urban design. The study showed how the creation of new cities during the colonial period in Brazil influenced urban planning in Teresina, the first planned capital of the imperial period. Although influenced by Portuguese norms, urban planning in colonial Brazil was adapted to local conditions and city formation needs.

Data stream mining in non-stationary environments presents the twin challenges of automated model selection and concept drift adaptation. This paper proposes a framework for Adaptive AutoML Pipelines capable of continuous learning from large-scale streaming data under evolving distributions. We integrate Automated Machine Learning (AutoML) with online learning to dynamically optimize full model pipelines – including preprocessing, feature selection, and classification – as new data arrive and concepts change.

This case study explores the therapeutic effects of the AIMIL Cleansing-Toning-Moisturizing (CTM) regimen, combined with Ayurvedic oral treatments—Amycordial and BGR-34—on a 28-year-old female dentist suffering from acne vulgaris linked to polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), insulin resistance, and iron deficiency anemia. Previous treatments with allopathic and homeopathic methods had worsened her skin condition.

The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) into supply chain management has revolutionized business operations, offering enhanced efficiency, accuracy, and adaptability. This research paper provides a comprehensive analysis of the impact of AI on supply chains, exploring both the opportunities and challenges it presents.

This article analyzes Steven Hahn’s A Nation Under Our Feet (2004) using the theory of hidden resistance. From the slavery era to the Great Migration, African Americans worked out covert strategies to circumvent the economic and socio-political hardships of life in Southern society. Hahn’s work highlights communication networks and rumors as important mechanisms that allowed Black people to resist race-based oppression. This perspective redefines the meanings of politics and the political, thus highlighting African Americans as early-politicized subjects in US history.

Objectives: To highlight the specificities of blast trauma in our context and analyzetheir management. Material and Method: Single-center, retrospective study from April 1, 2018 to January 31, 2020. Inclusion criteria: Patients admitted in emergency for explosion trauma. Results: 11 patients included. Average age was 37.82 The sex ratio (M/F) was 4.5. The injuries during industrial explosions were the mostnumerous (63.64% n=07). Among the injuries recorded we had (9.09% n=01) primary injuries, (18.18% n=02) secondary injuries, (9.09% n=01) tertiary injuries.
