In an information-intensive culture, computer technology has begun to reach other conventionally realizable sectors. Alongside this trend, several high-tech machines have emerged. Concurrently, a variety of high-tech devices have emerged in the traditional medical area in order to aid physicians in the treatment process. The introduction of sophisticated picture recognition technology has decreased a significant amount of the doctor's effort required to evaluate the tiny sick cells within the human body. The modernization, rationalization, and intelligence of the design and production of illness detection equipment utilizing image extraction technologies are increasing. In the medical industry, feature-based image recognition technology disease diagnosis equipment analyses and diagnoses pathology using picture collecting. From 2018 to 2022, the current study examines several image extraction algorithms applied to the identification of canine illnesses. Using classification, researchers have reached a high level of sensitivity and specificity in medical picture analysis. This evaluation not only identifies obstacles, but also identifies and presents fresh research prospects for this field's scholars

Background: Malassezia spp. is part of the normal flora of the skin of human vertebrates and other warm-blooded vertebrates, it is associated with several diseases affecting human skin such as Pityriasis Versicolor (PV) which that often affects young adults of both females and males and can also affect children. The use of molecular methods has made great progress in the study of infections caused by Malassezia spp. because these species are variable in shape and difficult to identify according to colony shapes and micro and biochemical characteristics. Materials and Methods: This study included 87 specimens, 38 of females, a percentage of 43.7%, and 49 specimens of males, a percentage of 56.3%, and the ages ranged between (10-55) years from patients that diagnosis by the dermatological consultant at Al-Diwaniyah Teaching Hospital for the period from 1/10/2019 to 5/3/2020. Results: The results showed that the incidence of (PV) patients is the most common among patients aged 10-20 years, at a percentage of 45.9%, with significant differences at a probability level of 0.01, followed by patients between the ages of 30-21, at a percentage of 29.8% compared to other age groups. It was also observed, the incidence of (PV) is more common among patients with oily skin at a percentage of 60.9%, and the most isolated types are M. furfur and M. globosa for being lipophilic, followed by patients with normal skin at a percentage of 34.5% and patients with dry skin at a percentage of 4.6%. The results also showed that the incidence of (PV) is more frequent in patients who have a negative family history of the disease by 82.8% and those who do not have comorbidities, and by 94.3%, as for the status, duration, and severity of the disease, the results showed that the recurrent disease for less than 1 year of the severe type, it was the predominant among the other cases at rates of 58.6%, 41.4% and 37.9%, respectively. (PV) hypopigmentation also recorded the highest percentage among the infections with 54.0%, followed by hyperpigmentation at 39.1%, with significant differences compared to other injuries. The neck region is the most affected part of the rest of the body at a percentage of 36.8%, followed by the chest area by 23.5%, then the back area by 20.7%, and scaly infection was the highest percentage according to the type of infection, reaching 40.2%, followed by mixed infection, at 28.7%, with significant differences compared to other infections. The results of the phenotypic and genotypic diagnosis of the growing colonies indicated that M. furfur was the most common causative agent (34.4%), followed by M. globosa (25.2%), M. slooffiae (18.3%), and M. pachydermatis at a percentage of (5.7%). The phylogenetic tree was also analyzed, and the similarity ratios between the local strains and the globally registered strains in the NCBI were compared using the MEGA10 program. The isolated local species were also registered in the Genbank and provided with the accession numbers. Conclusions: Malassezia furfur was the predominant causative agent of (PV) followed by M. globosa, M. slooffiae, and M. pachydermatis. Males and females are affected by the infection of (PV). Individuals of the age group between (10-20) years have oily skin, have a negative family history, the duration of the disease is less than 1 year, and the recurrent condition is most

Press is considered the fourth pillar of any democratic setup. India is a democratic country; therefore, newspapers play an agenda-setting role in the country. The cases of rape are ubiquitous phenomenon and reported every day in newspapers. A 23-year-old female was brutally raped and murdered by six adult men and one 17 years old juvenile in the year 2012. This brutal gang rape attracted media headlines not only in India but across the world due to its horrific nature in which the crime was committed. The present research paper attempts to understand the representation of rape in newspapers with special reference to Delhi gang rape case. The researcher has also conducted comparative analysis of representation of high-profile rape cases and normal rape cases. To analyze the reports the data were collected from three Hindi and three English newspapers namely Dainik Jagran, Hindustan, Dainik Bhaskar, The Times of India, The Tribune and The Hindu published from Dehradun. The researchers used electronic version of editions for the study. All the news items were read and re-read carefully and analyzed thematically. The study shows that newspapers highlight those stories and give extensive coverage to those rape incidents which have elements of sympathy, public apathy and exposure of such incidents by means of protests.

The COVID-19 epidemic in China is a world health threat. So far now it is the largest outbreak of atypical pneumonia since the severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) outbreak in 2003. Within weeks of the onset of COVID-19 the total number of cases and deaths exceeded those of SARS .SARS is similar to COVID-19, and SARS is a beta-coronavirus that can be spread to humans through intermediate hosts such as bats, though the actual route of transmission of COVID-19 is still debatable. The World Health Organization (WHO) declared the COVID-19 outbreak a public health emergency of international concern on 30 January 2020. It has been debated among the political leaders claiming that there is error from the part of WHO in giving a wrong impression at the golden hour where the pandemic could have been averted. A survey conducted with a self prepared questionnaire comprising 15 questions with a sample of 100 people of Tamil Nadu state. The questionnaire was prepared with questions comprising of covid 19 and who January WHO report, these questions help to determine perception on COVID-19 and WHO January report and that help to depict their knowledge and awareness on this topic and what is their critical perception of the role of WHO in handling the COVID pandemic. WHO plays a role in the process of updating the methods to prevent and cure the pandemic outbreak COVID-19. WHO is found to test the positive and negative responses shown by the possible methods present against COVID-19 and displays the most trusted method among the available methods.In the previous study, more than half of the participants are found to show high concern about swine influenza pandemic. In the present study, around 71% of the participants are aware of the COVID-19 pandemic and the controversial role played by WHO in spreading the COVID-19 pandemic. This study concludes that during this pandemic outbreak most of the participants are aware of the role of WHO in the process of controlling and updating information related to the global pandemic condition. It is evident from this study that people are sceptical about the role played by WHO in managing COVID-19
