Objectives: Areca nut is widely consumed in many parts of the world, especially in South and Southeast Asia, where cardiovascular disease (CVD) is also a huge burden. Among the forms of CVD, acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is a major cause of mortality and morbidity. Research has shown areca nut chewing to be associated with diabetes, hypertension, oropharyngeal and esophageal cancers, and CVD, but little is known about mortality and re-hospitalization secondary to ACS among areca nut users and non-users. Methods: A prospective cohort was studied to quantify the effect of areca nut chewing on patients with newly diagnosed ACS by categorizing the study population into exposed and non-exposed groups according to baseline chewing status. Cox proportional hazards models were used to examine the associations of areca nut chewing with the risk of re-hospitalization and 30-day mortality secondary to ACS. Results: Of the 384 ACS patients, 49.5% (n=190) were areca users. During 1-month of follow-up, 20.3% (n=78) deaths and 25.1% (n=96) re-hospitalizations occurred. A higher risk of re-hospitalization was found (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR], 2.05; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.29 to 3.27; p=0.002) in areca users than in non-users. Moreover, patients with severe disease were at a significantly higher risk of 30-day mortality (aHR, 2.77; 95% CI, 1.67 to 4.59; p<0.001) and re-hospitalization (aHR, 2.72; 95% CI, 1.73 to 4.26; p<0.001). Conclusions: The 30-day re-hospitalization rate among ACS patients was found to be significantly higher in areca users and individuals with severe disease. These findings suggest that screening for a history of areca nut chewing may help to identify patients at a high risk for re-hospitalization due to secondary events.

Social Internet of Vehicles: Architecture and enabling technologies
Butt, Talal Ashraf,Iqbal, Razi,Shah, Sayed Chhattan,Umar, Tariq Elsevier 2018 Computers & electrical engineering Vol.69 No.-
<P>The key goal of Internet of Things (IoT) has been the provision of value-added services based on the ubiquitously available smart devices that can offer diverse services by interacting with each other. However, the paradigm has evolved to its next phase, Social Internet of Things (SIoT), with the inception of an idea to empower these devices with consciousness. This cognizance enables these smart devices to socialize with each other based on shared context and mutual interests. The Social Internet of Vehicles (SIoV) applies SIoT concepts in the vehicular domain to revolutionize the existing ITS (Intelligent Transport System) by adding value to existing VANET (Vehicular Ad-hoc Network) technology. This paper presents a scalable SIoV architecture based on Restful web technology. Furthermore, this paper emphasizes the importance of web technology to meet the required interoperability to support the composition of numerous services. The paper also discusses the enabling technologies and protocols.</P>

Background Intellectual disability (ID) is a heterogeneous disorder afecting 1–3% of the population. Elucidation of monogenic variants for ID is a current challenge. These variants can be better demonstrated in consanguineous afected families. Objective The study was designed to fnd the genetic variants of ID in consanguineous families. Methods We analyzed fve unrelated consanguineous Pakistani families afected with ID using whole exome sequencing (WES). Data was analyzed using diferent bioinformatics tools and software. Results We mapped four variants including three novels in four diferent ID known genes. Each variant is found in a different family, co-segregating with a recessive pattern of inheritance. The novel variants found are; c. 2_4del (p.?) mapped in ROS1 and c. 718G>A (p.Gly240Arg) in GRM1. Another novel causative variant, c.2673del (p.Gly892Aspfs*17) identifed in COL18A1 in a recessive form, a gene reported for Knobloch syndrome that manifests ID along with typical retinal abnormalities, and this phenotype was confrmed on reverse phenotyping. A mutation c.2134C>T (p.Arg712*) in TRAPPC9 has been found frst time in the homozygous recessive form in our enrolled three afected siblings while it was previously reported in compound heterozygous form in a Caucasian descent. While ffth family remained unsolved. Conclusion These mutations in four diferent genes with a recessive inheritance would be a contribution to the disease variant database of this devastating disorder.

Numerous articles under the study and the examination of heavy metals in human teeth have been published in recent years. The heavy metal poisoning is a widespread issue emerged in toxicology area these days. It has been discovered that long-term exposure to heavy metals typically present in traces, in our everyday meals, drinking water, and in the environment as pollution causes heavy metal poisoning in human beings. Industrial effluents, Coal and Oil, as well as a variety of consumer items, such as cosmetics, can all cause this type of exposure. Teeth, which are often thought of as exoskeleton parts, store heavy metals with a high affinity and represent long-term exposure information. In this study, we have chosen and examined the sections of dentine instead, then examined the entire tooth. We have combined the work done on the examination of heavy metals in human teeth using several instrumental approaches e.g. "Optical Spectroscopic Techniques" to detect elemental profile of human teeth in the current study.
