Much research has been conducted on how patients may be served through new advances in perioperative anaesthetic care. However, adaptations of standardised care methodologies can only provide so many novel solutions for patients and caregivers alike. Similarly, unique methods such as nanoscopic liposomal package delivery for analgesics and affective numbing agents pose a similar issue—specifically that we are still left with the dilemma of patients for whom analgesics and numbing agents are ineffective or harmful. An examination of the potential gains that may result from the targeted development of nanorobotics for anaesthesia in perioperative care will be presented in this essay to help resolve this pending conflict for the research community. This examination should therefore serve as a “call to action” for such research and a “primer” for those for whom the method’s implementation would most directly impact.

Benazir Bhutto was the first female Prime Minister of a Muslim country. She was also the first politician in Pakistan who was elected Prime Minister twice. Her leadership abilities brought several unique and unprecedented measures in Pakistan. Nonetheless, she had to face a lot of challenges in both of her tenures which included a rift with the Islami Jamhoori Ittehad (IJI) led rule in Punjab that objected her leadership as un-Islamic based on her gender. This rift eventually discontented the President Ghulam Ishaq Khan who dissolved assemblies only two years after she rose to power. Similar issue happened with her government in 1996 when the President Farooq Leghari dissolved the assemblies bringing an end to her second term as Prime Minister and that also two years earlier than its official expiry. Nonetheless, during her both short-lived terms as Prime Minister of Pakistan, she proved herself as a far-sighted leader who made some valuable administrative contributions to the country. Her administration also made some unprecedented measures which were also replicated by the forthcoming governments. This article explores her administrative contributions and it also mentions the challenges she had to face as the first female Prime Minister of Pakistan.

An IDS supervises network traffic by searching for skeptical activities and previously determined threats and sends alerts when detected. In the current times, the splendors of Intrusion detection still prevail censorial in cyber safety, but maybe not as a lasting resolution. To study a plant, one must start with roots, so Cambridge dictionary defines an intrusion as "an occasion when someone goes into an area or situation where they're not wanted or expected to be". For understanding the article, we will characterize interruption as any network movement or unapproved framework identified with one or more PCs or networks. This is an interpretation of permissible use of a system attempting to strengthen his advantages to acquire more noteworthy access to the framework that he is at present endowed, or a similar client attempting to associate with an unapproved far-off port of a server. These are the interruptions which will cause from the surface world, a bothered ex-representative who was terminated recently, or from your reliable staff. In this proviso, the fair information is found as an attack when the case is a false positive. Here they are zeroing in on this issue with a representation and offering one answer for a similar issue. The KDD CUP 1999 informational index is utilized. Here we dropped the number of counts and considered the OTP authentication system. In the result of this test, it may be very well seen that on the off chance that a class has a higher number of checks, at that point this class is believed to be an anomaly class. In any case, it will be considered an oddity if the genuine individual is passing the edge esteem is considered an intruder. One arrangement is proposed to distinguish the genuine individual and to eliminate false positives.

Abstract In the presence of complex septal morphology or extra-cardiac factors like severe scoliosis or diaphragm paralysis, the procedure may become more challenging, and pre-formed sheaths and devices thought to facilitate the implantation might turn into a problem to address. Similarly to Herron and Kobayashi, we have experienced a similar issue during atrial septal defect closure with Gore Cardioform atrial septal defect device® in a 12-year-old female patient with severe scoliosis. After the conformation of the locking loop and the removal of the safety cord, the Gore Cardioform atrial septal defect device prolapsed in the right atrium.

The human mind is not necessarily willing to assess costs and benefits every time it faces a decision. It often prefers to rely on cognitive shortcuts (i.e., heuristics) enabling it to decide rapidly and satisfactorily. Most literature on heuristics and biases suggests that a common cognitive shortcut individuals take is looking at what is close to judge what is far. An experiment involving 300 Italian citizens used a questionnaire to test whether it may work the other way around when it comes to politics. This paper investigated whether citizens might use mere exposure to information on a foreign issue as a heuristic to express an opinion on a similar issue at the domestic level. Furthermore, it strived to test whether this occurs more frequently when the individual considers the two cultures involved to be relatively close to each other. Results show data can only partially confirm the expectations.

The recent technological advancement has taken cloud computing (CC) infrastructure to a significant level where the increasing level of research interest laid upon cost-effective storage management.  Owing to the potential distributed and pervasive storage facility, it lacks efficiency towards fully preserving the integrity of user data attributes. Thereby, the collaborative sharing of user data leads to a situation which opens up various forms of security loop-holes. In the past various forms of security protocols are witnessed which have attempted to solve this similar issue with cryptographic solutions but at the same time lacks sustainability and robustness from a computational perspective. Thereby, the study introduces a 2-tier framework which offers higher-degree of access control along with Virtual Machine (VM) storage security. The study basically optimizes the performance of the model by speeding up the authentication process. The performance validation of the system has been done with respect to conventional encryption standards. The outcome obtained demonstrate that the proposed solution outperforms the existing security standards in terms of processing time, time to generate a secret key and key size for encryption.

Terrorism issue has been transforming into a worldwide concern. Southeast Asia is undoubtedly currently facing the similar issue. During Afghan war, Southeast Asia might be only known as “the exporters” of foreign militants to Afghanistan’s conflict zone. Going into the 21st century, Southeast Asia has, in turn, become the home base for terrorism itself to grow. Thus, ASEAN, as a regional body which shades Southeast Asia member states, responded to its emergence. ASEAN regarded terrorism a huge threat and paid extremely high attention to it through the release of ASEAN Convention on Counter Terrorism (ACCT). Moreover, ASEAN enhanced its commitment as regional body by composing one pillar of cooperation in security called ASEAN Political Security Community (APSC). APSC helps to drive all ASEAN member states to commit onto ACCT by proceeding to the full ratification by each member state and applying the effective implementation in dealing with the issue. This paper examines APSC’s role  in combating terrorism within region and discusses its obstacles in implementing ACCT.Keywords: ASEAN; ASEAN Political Security Community; Terrorism; ASEAN Convention on Counter-Terrorism; Non-Interference

Abstract A psychiatric hospital is a special place. People undergoing treatment are in a unique situation. Mental illness remains a mystery for scientists because we do not know what factors influence its appearance. There were also no drugs that would completely cure the patient, as you never know whether the medicine will affect a particular person. Mental illnesses evoke anxiety and fear of the community. Some patients take disturbing or dangerous actions. Their behaviors are referred to as specific and different ones. A similar situation is caused by the appearance of psychotic symptoms. One should pay attention to delusions and hallucinations here. These symptoms cause the patient’s situation to deteriorate. Ultimately, they can cause dangerous behavior. It happens that a relative of a patient, who is in such condition, must take action without his/her consent. A similar issue has been analyzed in Poland for almost thirty years. Individual regulations, in exceptional cases, allow for undertaking coercive actions: treating the patient without consent, applying direct coercion. These interventions are controlled. Polish psychiatric legislation is constantly changing (new control institutions are introduced, the role of the family court is increased). This article presents the latest amendments. They are based on the principle of respect for human rights and freedoms.
