An evolutionary approach to comparative analysis of detecting Bangla abusive text

The use of Bangla abusive texts has been accelerated with the progressive use of social media. Through this platform, one can spread the hatred or negativity in a viral form. Plenty of research has been done on detecting abusive text in the English language. Bangla abusive text detection has not been done to a great extent. In this experimental study, we have applied three distinct approaches to a comprehensive dataset to obtain a better outcome. In the first study, a large dataset collected from Facebook and YouTube has been utilized to detect abusive texts. After extensive pre-processing and feature extraction, a set of consciously selected supervised machine learning classifiers i.e. multinomial Naïve Bayes (MNB), multi layer perceptron (MLP), support vector machine (SVM), decision tree, random forrest, stochastic gradient descent (SGD), ridge, perceptron and k-nearest neighbors (k-NN) has been applied to determine the best result. The second experiment is conducted by constructing a balanced dataset by random under sampling the majority class and finally, a Bengali stemmer is employed on the dataset and then the final experiment is conducted. In all three experiments, SVM with the full dataset obtained the highest accuracy of 88%.

Management of Neurosurgical Patients During the COVID-19 Pandemic

The 2019 coronavirus infection (COVID-19) is a dangerous infectious disease proceeding as an acute respiratory viral infection with specific complications, which may include pneumonia leading to acute respiratory distress syndrome or respiratory failure with a high risk of death. The etiological agent of COVID-19 is a new coronavirus, referred to as Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2). This new viral form is most likely to have appeared from zoonotic coronaviruses, such as SARS-CoV emerged in 2002. This article sets out to present a strategy for manag‑ ing neurosurgical patients, which was developed taking into account the experience of the Neurosurgery Department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University in the prevention and control of pneumonia outbreaks caused by the new coronavirus. This strategy can be helpful for neurosurgeons in providing emergency care in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic in the Russian Federation.

COMPLEX ORPHAN PATHOLOGY: COMORBIDITY OF MUCOVISCIDOSIS AND CONGENITAL DYSFUNCTION OF ADRENAL GLANDS CORTEX (REFERENCES REVIEW AND OWN RESEARCH)

The aim: The clinical case was studied: comorbidity of mucoviscidosis and congenital dysfunction of adrenal glands cortex. Materials and methods: The clinical case of combined orphan pathology – cystic fibrosis and congenital dysfunction of adrenal glands cortex (adrenogenital syndrome) has been described. Clinical case: A 2-month child has been diagnosed with mucoviscidosis, of a mixed form, which was genetically confirmed. The proband and the father were found to be heterozygotes for the F508del mutation of the CFTR gene (the father suffers from mucoviscidosis). Congenital dysfunction of the adrenal glands, a viral form, was diagnosed when he was three years old. The child is currently receiving: Creon 100 000 units per day with eating, Colomycin 1 vial per day, Pulmozyme 2.5 mg/2.5 ml daily in the morning for inhalations, Ursofalk 600 mg every day constantly, Hydrocortisone 50 mg/day. Conclusions: This clinical case can be attributed to rare, as most such pathological conditions are usually diagnosed in maternity homes along with the prescription of appropriate therapy. This is an example of late diagnosis of the viral form of congenital adrenal dysfunction against the background of cystic fibrosis, indicating the need for earlier detection and timely introduction of substitution therapy to improve favourable prognosis for a disease.

Implementing an Online Marketing Strategy for an IT Company

This paper aims to introduce an innovative integrated online feedback tool to gather user-generated information from the online visitors of a company’s website. In this particular example, are presented the benefits of adopting such a tool in the case of an IT company. As growth can be obtained only through customer satisfaction, this tool would enable the Company’s decision-makers to have real-time access to information on their clients’ feedback. With the help of the online reviews, a new kind of marketing and communication emerged, that helps filling the gap between the old traditional review to a viral form of feedback that can increase exponentially the value of a business. Online reviews are one of the biggest aspects for any business that wants to take control and keep a good online reputation. Reviewing has entirely changed the face of the online marketing since the Internet caused a revolution in selling. Reviewing allows businesses to be active and positive regarding the participation of the consumers, and gives them a solid foundation for creating a relationship between the consumer and the business

D.I. Ivanovsky ― A Pioneer Discover of Viruses, As A New Form of Biological Life

125 years ago, in 1992, a Russian scientist Dmitri Iosifovich Ivanovsky published first research data disclosing a unique form of filterable biological microlife. Further scientific progress in this discovery resulted in a new discipline of human knowledge, called «the Kingdom of viruses».A fundamental understanding of viral form of biological life was established not at once and was gradually formed under the accumulation of scientific facts. Only at the beginning of 50 years of the twentieth century, a basic understanding of viral Kingdom had been formed and 1992 year was recognized as the year of the birth of Virology. Virology, which started developing by the research of D.I. Ivanovsky, gave remarkable progress and prominent results: more than 20 scientists got Nobble Prize for the outstanding works in virology. There are all arguments and grounds to nominate the international scientific award in virology named of D.I. Ivanovsky.

Angiopoietin-1-induced ubiquitylation of Tie2 by c-Cbl is required for internalization and degradation

Tie2 [where ‘Tie’ is an acronym from tyrosine kinase with Ig and EGF (epidermal growth factor) homology domains] is a receptor tyrosine kinase expressed predominantly on the surface of endothelial cells. Activated by its ligands, the angiopoietins, Tie2 initiates signalling pathways that modulate vascular stability and angiogenesis. Deletion of either the Tie2 or Ang1 (angiopoietin-1) gene in mice results in lethal vascular defects, signifying their importance in vascular development. The mechanism employed by the Tie2 signalling machinery to attenuate or cause receptor trafficking is not well defined. Stimulation of Tie2-expressing cells with Ang1 results in its ubiquitylation, suggesting that this may provide the necessary signal for receptor turnover. Using a candidate molecule approach, we demonstrate that Tie2 co-immunoprecipitates with c-Cbl in an Ang1-dependent manner and its ubiquitylation can be inhibited by the dominant-interfering molecule v-Cbl (a viral form of c-Cbl that contains only the tyrosine kinase-binding domain region). Inhibition of the Tie2–Cbl interaction by overexpression of v-Cbl blocks ligand-induced Tie2 internalization and degradation. In summary, our results illustrate that c-Cbl interacts with the Tie2 signalling complex in a stimulation-dependent manner, and that this interaction is required for Tie2 ubiquitylation, internalization and degradation.

Key Golgi Factors for Structural and Functional Maturation of Bunyamwera Virus

ABSTRACT Several complex enveloped viruses assemble in the membranes of the secretory pathway, such as the Golgi apparatus. Among them, bunyaviruses form immature viral particles that change their structure in a trans-Golgi-dependent manner. To identify key Golgi factors for viral structural maturation, we have purified and characterized the three viral forms assembled in infected cells, two intracellular intermediates and the extracellular mature virion. The first viral form is a pleomorphic structure with fully endo-β-N-acetylglucosaminidase H (Endo-H)-sensitive, nonsialylated glycoproteins. The second viral intermediate is a structure with hexagonal and pentagonal contours and partially Endo-H-resistant glycoproteins. Sialic acid is incorporated into the small glycoprotein of this second viral form. Growing the virus in glycosylation-deficient cells confirmed that acquisition of Endo-H resistance but not sialylation is critical for the trans-Golgi-dependent structural maturation and release of mature viruses. Conformational changes in viral glycoproteins triggered by changes in sugar composition would then induce the assembly of a compact viral particle of angular contours. These structures would be competent for the second maturation step, taking place during exit from cells, that originates fully infectious virions.

Identification of a baculovirus polyhedron formation mutant with a novel phenotype

Nucleopolyhedroviruses (NPV, family Baculoviridae) produce two morphological forms, a budded virus form and a viral form that is occluded into a paracrystalline protein matrix. This structure is termed a polyhedron and is composed primarily of the protein polyhedrin. Insects are infected by NPVs after ingestion of the polyhedron and release of the occluded virions through dissolution of the polyhedron in the alkaline environment of the insect midgut. Early after infection the budded virus form is produced. It buds through the plasma membrane and then infects other cells. Later in the infection cycle the occluded form of the virus is generated (reviewed by Blissard and Rohrmann, 1990).The processes of polyhedron formation and virion occlusion are likely to involve a number of viral gene products. However, only two genes, the polyhedrin gene and 25K FP gene, have been identified to date that are necessary for the wild type number of polyhedra to be formed and viral particles occluded.

Inhibition of Thymidylate Synthetase Activity Induced in Varicella-Zoster Virus Infected Cells by (E)-5-(2-bromovinyl)-2′-deoxyuridine

The authors investigated the effect' of thymidylate synthetase (TS) on the antivariclllazoster virus (VZV) activity of ( E)5-(2-bromovinyl)-2′-deoxyuridine (BVDU). TS catalyses the conversion of deoxyuridylate (dUMP) to thymidylate (dTMP) and is a key enzyme in pyrimidine biosynthesis, providing the only source of dTMP synthesized de novo in mammalian cells. VZV encodes a specialized viral form of TS. TS activity in cells infected with VZV (TIO-VZV and TK−-VZV) increased proportionally with focus formation. From kinetic analysis using the Michaelis-Menten equation, the authors determined a Km value of 6.6μm for dUMP of TS induced in VZV-infected cells and a corresponding value from mock-infected cells of only 2.8μm. BVDU inhibited the induction of TS activity in TK+-VZV-infected cells at concentrations under ×10−3μm, but did not inhibit TS activity of TK−-VZV- or mock-infected cells at concentrations as high as 10μm. Inhibitory activity of BVDU against TS induced in TK+-VZV-infected cells appears to occur when BVDU is phosphorylated to BVDU monophosphate by viral pyrimidine kinase. These results suggest that the selective inhibitory action of BVDU on VZV replication depends on a specific interaction with both viral TK and TS. 5-Bromodeoxyuridine and 5-iododeoxyuridine inhibited TS activities induced in both VZV (TK+, TK−) and mock-infected cells. Other antiherpes compounds [i.e. 1-β-D-arabinofuranosyl- E-5-(2-bromovinyl)uracil, 9- 2-hydroxyethoxymethyl)-guanine, arabinosyladenine, and others] did not inhibit TS activity in VZV-infected cells at concentrations Of 10μm.

Influenza: viral determinants of the pathogenicity and epidemicity of an invariant disease of variable occurrence

If influenza is a riddle wrapped in mystery inside an enigma, then the viral genes are the riddle, the variable surface antigens for which they code are the mystery, and the course and cause of epidemics the ultimate enigma. Paradoxically, the disease itself has remained a stable and recognizable entity through the years, whether initiated by A/PR/8/34 or A/USSR/90/77 variant viruses. Thus, evolution appears to have preserved the disease but not the virus. Among the questions before us are: (1) Have we become obsessed with differences instead of similarities, and have we overemphasized minor differences in viral (antigenic) structure as epidemic determinants? (2) To what extent do viral antigens reflect selection by population antibody ? (3) To what extent is antigenic change the pleiotropic consequence of protein structural alteration for purposes other than escape from specific neutralization ? These and other questions are discussed in relating viral form to function.
