Purpose: Globally, the use of traditional, complementary and alternative medicine (TCAM) is highly prevalent among breast cancer patients. Although the high use of TCAM among Myanmar community is well documented and breast cancer is a leading non-communicable disease in Myanmar women, there is no information about the utilization of TCAM among breast cancer patients. The aim of this research is to explore the prevalence and factors predicting for TCAM use among women with breast cancer survivors in Myanmar. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted using a self-administered questionnaire among 431 women with breast cancer in the cancer department, Yangon General Hospital, Myanmar in 2017. The questionnaire included 41 questions regarding clinical characteristics of breast cancer patients, TCAM use, perceived effectiveness of treatments and sociodemographic characteristics. Differences characteristics between TCAM users and non-users were assessed using the chi-square test. In order to determine the significant predictors of TCAM use, we calculated odd ratios (OR) with multivariable logistic regressions. Results: Among 431 among women with breast cancer who participated in this study, more than two-thirds of respondents 381(65.2%) reported the use of one or more TCAM therapies for breast cancer. Regarding TCAM modalities, mind-body therapies; praying is the leading TCAM modality, followed by cow’s urine therapy, herbal products, traditional Myanmar medicine (oral). Main sources of information of TCAM are family members and friends. Respondents’ age, education, employment status, family members are the influencing sociodemographic factors for TCAM use. Stage of cancer, duration of diagnosis and treatment, satisfaction with conventional breast cancer treatment are the main clinical predicting factors of TCAM use. Nearly half of TCAM users did not disclose about TCAM use to their physician. Conclusion: A significant amount of women with breast cancer are using CAM during the treatment of their disease, despite the lack of safety or efficacy data and often without any supervision from a knowledgeable practitioner. Further research in this field may allow women with breast cancer more options in treating common conditions of breast cancer and improve women’s health.

Lamellar-structured nanomaterials are gaining large interest for tribological applications owing to theirremarkable mechanical and low shearing properties. Herein, polyethylene glycol (PEG)-mediatedhierarchical microspheres of MoS2 nanosheets are synthesized by a facile and single-step hydrothermalreduction of ammonium molybdate in the presence of thiourea. The PEG functions as a soft templatingmaterial and provides hierarchical microspheres of MoS2 nanosheets. Detailed chemical andmicrostructural features of hierarchical microspheres of MoS2 nanosheets are probed by FTIR[14TD$DIF], XPS,Raman, XRD, TGA, FESEM, and HRTEM analyses. Each nanosheet of MoS2 [15TD$DIF]microspheres is composed oflimited number (10–20) of atomic-thick lamellae[3TD$DIF] as deduced from HRTEM images. The MoS2microspheres, as[4TD$DIF] additive[5TD$DIF] provide significantly improved lubrication properties for steel tribo-pair byreducing the friction ( 21%) and the wear (42%) compared to that of fully formulated 10W40 lubricant. The elemental mapping of worn surfaces revealed the deposition of MoS2 nanosheets on the contactinterfaces. The improved lubrication properties are attributed to collective effect of deposition ofdelaminated MoS2 lamellae on the contact interfaces, low shearing and high mechanical strength ofMoS2 nanosheets.
Semantic segmentation using GSAUNet
Sangita B. Nemade,Shefali P. Sonavane 한국통신학회 2023 ICT Express Vol.9 No.1
Gabor filters well support computer vision tasks due to its steerable properties, that are useful for handling image transformation such as image rotation and image scaling. In this paper, the Gabor-based UNet (GSAUNet) model is proposed where the Gabor filters replace the few default filters in the UNet. Besides, it has adopted a squeeze-and-excitation module to increase channel interdependencies and attention mechanism to focus on an important part of the network. The performance of GSAUNet is assessed on the CamVid and Cityscape datasets that attain improvement for the semantic segmentation tasks.
Genome Wide Computational Identification of Tuna (Thunnus orientalis) MicroRNAs and Their Targets

Applying genome-wide computational-based approaches (using the draft genome sequence published in recent years) and following a set of strict filtering criteria, a total of 48 potentially conserved microRNAs belonging to 30 families were identified from economically important fish tuna (Thunnus orientalis). Using BLAST and RNA hybrid program a total of 19 potential miRNA targets were also identified in this study, which includes a number of signaling molecules (serine/threonine-protein kinase, GTPase activating protein etc.) and transcription factors (F-box protein, zinc finger protein etc.). This study provides the basis for gaining a better understanding of miRNA-mediated gene regulatory processes in fishes.

The far western region of Nepal is the most under-developed part of Nepal. Majority of the population in this region relies on subsistence agriculture. Floods, landslides, drought and extreme temperatures associated with climate change are impacting the agricultural productivity of the region. Consequently, this area faces ongoing food insecurity, particularly affecting women and children of marginalized groups. Although the aid agencies are trying to mitigate agricultural issues associated with climate change by introducing climate smart technologies such as MUS, MIT, CA etc., the local population has been reluctant to adopt the new technologies. Moreover, the low productivity of land forces male member of the household to migrate in search of better livelihood options leaving the female members with extra burden of domestic as well as agriculture activities resulting in adverse effects in their health and nutrition. The Anukulan/BRACED project funded by UKAID aims in building resilience and adaptation of 500,000 poor and vulnerable people (especially women and children) to climate extremes and disaster through introduction and awareness of climate smart technologies such as MUS, MIT, IPM, CA, RE(Bio-gas) with majority of women taking leadership in it. Resilience is measured through 3 key indicators which are income, nutrition and women’s empowerment. The project focuses on 6 districts that are prone to climate extremes. The project run in collaboration with 4 national, 7 international and 6 district level partners. It is unquestionable that women play significant role in development of household, community and the nation. However, women’s engagement in the project has been an ongoing challenge given the deeply rooted patriarchal mentality of the Nepali society. Women are restricted to participate in such projects as women leadership is incomprehensible; they are often tagged as being clever and women are often compelled to suppress their voice and strength. The main aim of this paper is to emphasize women empowerment on climate smart agriculture in response to build resilience to climate extremes with reference to my professional and organization experience and also through some literature reviews.
