LIPOSOMAL DOXORUBICIN FOR THE TREATMENT OF ADVANCED LIVER DISEASE /

By Khan, Faryal . . 59p. , Nanoscale materials are utilized as diagnostic instruments or to administer therapeutic substances to specific targeted regions in a controlled manner in the fields of nanomedicine and nano drug carriers, which are still relatively young but are quickly evolving. Nanoparticles can potentially deliver medications more accurately because they are currently made from biocompatible materials. The treatment of advanced liver disease has benefited greatly from nanomedicine in previous decades. Nano-based drug delivery systems improve the effectiveness of medications. Today, advanced liver disease is being treated with liposomal nanoparticles. Nano-based drug delivery systems increase the efficacy of both new and existing treatments through a detailed investigation of nanoparticle manufacturing and utilization. One of the most often used anticancer medications is doxorubicin. Doxorubicin (DOX) is a medication that is frequently used to treat HCC. Doxorubicin is a medicine that belongs to the anthracyclines class and is commonly used to treat different types of cancers, including lymphomas, leukemias, breast, ovary, thyroid, and lungs. Doxorubicin interacts with nitrogen - containing bases of DNA and prevents the production of macromolecules. This, in turn, prevents the action of the enzyme topoisomerase II (Top II), which inhibits the replication process. Consequently, malignant cells are prevented from proliferating. According to early research, doxorubicin's cardiotoxicity is reduced when it is encapsulated inside liposomes. Due to its cardiotoxicity, the "thin film hydration approach" was utilized to create doxorubicinencapsulated liposome nanoparticles, which were then used to treat advanced liver disease. The liposome nanoparticles were coated with polyethylene glycol (PEG) to boost their stability and provide a stealth effect. Pegylation improves steric repulsion and is therefore regarded as a superior stabilizer for various kinds of nanoparticles. PEG adopts the drug's erosion-controlled release mechanism, which led to continuous release. It is noted that a significant technique to treat NAFLD is to encapsulate the doxorubicin drug within liposomes and modify these liposome nanoparticles via PEG. 30cm.

Design and Development of an Air-Driven Posture Correction Device /

By Haris, Muhammad. . 129p. , The prevalence of postural kyphosis continues to rise across all demographics because of inactive lifestyles and extended screen time usage which has established itself as a major musculoskeletal issue. The current solutions including static braces and feedback-only wearables, fail to provide adaptability and comfort with active correction features. This restricts their ability to achieve longterm success and user adherence. The research introduces a new wearable air-driven posture correction device which combines real-time sensing with pneumatic actuation to treat flexible thoracic kyphosis. The proposed wearable tech device focuses on posture correction by integrating multiple features into one compact device. The system includes an MPU-6050 inertial measurement unit which tracks the user’s trunk in real time in six degrees of freedom. A microcontroller processes this data and determines if changes to posture exceed a calibrated angular threshold. If so, the system triggers a pneumatic actuation module within an orthopedic vest that has been altered for this purpose. This module includes butyl rubber chambers which are constrained but designed to inflate and mechanically stress the upper back by simulating the action of scapular retractor muscles. To measure the corrective force, force-sensitive resistors (FSRs) are placed where the actuators and the body interface. A closed-loop control system dynamically adaptive and responsive to real time conditions with sensor fusion guarantees timely action and feedback. The prototype was tested by means of both objective and subjective methods, with a full-scale experimental protocol involving 24 healthy participants. Data collected in this study included realtime pitch angle vs actuator force, and subjective user feedback through standardized ergonomic surveys such as the Borg CR10 scale, Corlett & Bishop discomfort map, and the System Usability Scale (SUS). Results indicate that the system successfully minimized thoracic pitch deviation while maintaining safe tactile force levels, achieving average corrective pressures of 7–12 kPa, resulting in notable postural enhancement. The system reliably attained enhancements in posture, surpassing 85% in 22 out of 24 participants. This work contributes a fully automated, textile-integrated pneumatic solution for posture correction, combining real-time sensing, adaptive actuation, and ergonomic design. The proposed xix system offers a replicable framework for intelligent musculoskeletal rehabilitation wearables and lays the groundwork for future closed-loop personalization strategies in postural health technologies. 30cm..

Comparison of Different Machine Learning Models for Quality Control in Biscuit Manufacturing Industry of Pakistan /

By Awais, Muhammad . . 113p. , Ensuring consistent product quality is a critical challenge in the biscuit manufacturing industry, particularly in developing economies like Pakistan, where manual inspection remains the norm. This approach, however, is prone to human error, fatigue, and inconsistency, leading to variable quality control outcomes. This research proposes an intelligent, machine learning–based automated quality inspection system tailored for real-world biscuit production lines. A comprehensive dataset of 40,000 high-resolution images was curated, representing four popular biscuit varieties Rio, Sooper, Candy, and Marie captured under actual factory lighting conditions. The dataset includes both defective and non-defective samples, covering a wide range of defect types such as breakage, charring, deformation, and missing pieces. To ensure high-quality annotations with scalable efficiency, a semi-automated iterative annotation framework was developed, combining initial manual labeling with model-assisted annotation and human-in-the-loop refinement across multiple cycles. Multiple state-ofthe-art machine learning models were implemented, fine-tuned, and rigorously evaluated, including YOLOv8, YOLOv11, YOLOv12, Faster R-CNN (via Detectron2), and Vision Transformer (ViT-B/16). Models were assessed using key performance metrics such as mAP@0.5:0.95, precision, recall, F1-score, inference speed (FPS), and computational efficiency. The results demonstrate that modern deep learning models, particularly YOLOv12 and Vision Transformers, achieve high detection accuracy (mAP > 90%) while maintaining feasibility for real-time deployment when optimized. This study provides a comparative analysis of accuracy-speed trade-offs, offering actionable insights for manufacturers seeking cost-effective, scalable solutions. The research concludes with practical recommendations for integrating AI-driven inspection systems into existing production infrastructure in resource-constrained environments, balancing performance, hardware requirements, and long-term maintainability. 30cm.
