for C band communication that was launched from the International Space Station (ISS).<\/p><p>According to the head researcher Prof. Mohammad Tariqul Islam, the compact sized antenna was installed on a satellite cube (CubSat) known as the KITSUNE nanosatellite. <br \/>Muhammad Tariqul further added that the antenna was fitted on a CubeSat KITSUNE due to its small size of 30 x 30 x 1 mm3.<\/p><p>\u201cThe KITSUNE satellite is a CubeSat 6U with parallel square sides of about 10 x 20 x 30 cm. Hence, a compact sized antenna, lightweight, and stability are required for the smooth operation of this nanosatellite mission,\u201d he explained.<\/p><p>He said that the communication between CubeSat and the Earth is highly dependent on the antenna system.<\/p><p>\u201cThis antenna feature is unique because it does not interfere with other signals from the satellite system, ensuring better communication to users.<\/p><p>\u201cThis simple and compact structured antenna can operate in C band transmission applications (5.66 GHz and 5.84 GHz) with Circularly Polarized radiation. \u201cA constant polarisation of the antenna ensures a steady receiving communication signal,\u201d he explained adding that the project is in collaboration with the Kyushu Institute of Technology, Japan (Kyutech).<\/p><p>Three other researchers who worked on the project are Prof Dr Norbahiah Misran, Prof Ir Dr Mandeep Singh, and Dr Md Samsuzaaman.

of cell-based immunotherapy or cell therapy to treat blood cancer.<\/p><p>The two studies are dendritic cell (DC) therapy and CART-T (Chimeric Antigen Response-T) cell therapy.<\/p><p>Deputy Minister of Health, Dato\u2019 Dr. Noor Azmi Ghazali said the government welcomes the efforts made by the UKM Cell Therapy Center and will review issues such as regulations that are said to restrict the development of treatment for the disease.<\/p><p>He said that the Ministry of Health will investigate this matter in light of the recent rise in non-communicable diseases and cancer.<\/p><p>\u201cWe support this type of research and will look into it further, improve the situation, and look at issues such as regulations that are said to be restrictive, causing us to lag behind other countries,\u201d he said.<\/p><p>In response to the clinical study, he stated that engineering T cell therapy is a novel approach for treating patients with relapsed\/ refractory leukemia and lymphoma.<\/p><p>\u201cI understand that the UKM Cell Therapy Center\u2019s CAR-T research group has designed the first clinical study in Malaysia to assess the safety profile and efficacy of CAR-T therapy for patients with relapsed\/ refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia and B-non-Hodgkin\u2019s lymphoma.<\/p><p>\u201cThese studies will undoubtedly have a positive impact on the development of blood cancer treatment in Malaysia, as well as providing opportunities for patients with recurrent or chemo refractory blood cancer to seek alternative treatment,\u201d he said.<\/p><p>He also mentioned that the most common cancer for women is breast cancer, and men, are prostate and colorectal cancers. Other cancers such as lung cancer, is the result of the country\u2019s ageing population and unhealthy lifestyle choices.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div

efficacy of yeast beta glucan supplementation in adults to strengthen the immune system, and gut health.<\/p><p>According to a co-researcher Dr. Munirah Ismail, yeast beta glucan is one of the immunomodulators that has immune stimulating properties which may be a useful tool to prime the host immune system and increase resistance against invading pathogens.<\/p><p>\u201cMost clinical studies look at the effectiveness of yeast beta glucan at high doses, but this study will look at the impact on gut health in adult populations using a low dose of yeast beta glucan.<\/p><p>\u201cOur clinical trial will include over 100 working adults who will be supplemented with yeast beta glucan-containing milk twice a day for three months.<\/p><p>\u201cThere will be three groups in total, with two receiving 100g and 200g yeast beta glucan respectively, and one serving as a control group,\u201d she said.<\/p><p>The research team expect that the findings of this study will provide a positive effect on the value of immunonutrition supplementation using yeast beta glucan at a lower dosage on upper respiratory tract infection, fatigue, immune response health outcome and be able to generate

reasons include being exposed to smoking signs, lack of aids to quit smoking, never having the intention to completely quit, dealing with life pressures, and interacting with other smokers on a daily basis.<\/p><p>Furthermore, failing to quit smoking, having negative emotions, low level of motivation, low level of education, lack of self-confidence and social support, the use of alcohol, and experiencing mental illness can all be reasons why smokers fail to quit smoking.<\/p><p>These are the findings presented by Prof. Dr. Wee Lei Hum in her lecture titled \u2018Reasons of Failure to Quit Smoking,\u2019 which focuses on what causes ex-smokers to quit smoking and revert to being regular smokers.<\/p><p>Prof. Dr. Wee Lei Hum explained that approximately 75% of smokers are able to quit smoking for six months before relapsing.<\/p><p>\u201cRelapse occurs as a result of an unstable motivation system colliding with \u2018moments of weakness,\u2019 low self-control, a strong desire and need to smoke.<\/p><p>\u201cIt can also occur as a result of a refusal to accept their new self-identity as a nonsmoker,\u201d she said.<\/p><p>According to studies, almost half of people who relapse to smoking do so within 24 hours of finishing treatment or within the first three months of quitting.<\/p><p>\u201cIn reality, many people fail to quit smoking, and the relapse rate is high; as a result, prevention must take precedence over recovery, especially among the younger groups,\u201d she explained.<\/p><p>She further said that there are two strategies were found to be effective in reducing the prevalence of smoking &#8211; setting up a place where smokers can stop smoking, and making sure that the next generation doesn\u2019t smoke or use electric cigarettes.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7212d67 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"7212d67\"

increase the city\u2019s resilience to climate change risks.<\/p><p>According to the head researcher from the Southeast Asia Disaster Prevention Research Initiative (SEADPRI-UKM), Professor Dr. Joy Jacqueline Pereira, KL-MHP is a web-based system that displays detailed weather forecasts for three days ahead.<\/p><p>She added that KL-MHP provides comprehensive disaster warnings, including flood, landslide, and atmospheric threats like heat waves and air pollution.<\/p><p>\u201cThis system adapts meteorological, atmospheric, and disaster models based on Malaysian and Southeast Asian tropical climates and then integrates them into one platform.<\/p><p>\u201cUnlike general weather forecasts, KL-MHP provides detailed forecasts down to the scale of residential areas,\u201d she said.<\/p><p>The data from KL-MHP is currently being used by the Kuala Lumpur Rescue Squad at Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) to make thorough preparations for responding to urban disasters such as floods and landslides.<\/p><p>\u201cFurthermore, DBKL can make better decisions about land use and development control in Kuala Lumpur based on scientific evidence to deal with climate hazard issues such as floods, landslides, strong winds, and urban heat, which are expected to worsen in the near future.<\/p><p>\u201cKL-MHP can also assist in identifying more misguided actions to raise awareness and disaster preparedness for communities in flood and landslide-prone areas, thereby reducing loss and damage to property and physical assets in the city.\u201d she explained.<\/p><p>Dr. Joy Jacqueline stated that KL-weather MHP\u2019s and disaster forecasting accuracy is consistent and exceeds 90 percent for floods and flash floods.<\/p><p>Meanwhile, the prediction accuracy for landslides is greater than 95 percent.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-top-column

Razif used a special instrument called the Harmonic scalpel, which is easy to use, capable of reducing bleeding, shortening surgery time, and ensuring patients\u2019 quick recovery.<\/p><p>According to him, the salivary gland tumor is categorized into two which is non-cancerous (benign) and (malignant) cancerous.<\/p><p>\u201cIn this case, patients have a non-cancerous tumor. If left untreated, however, it can continue to grow and cause discomfort to the patient,\u201d he said.<\/p><p>He further explained that the real cause of the formation salivary gland growth is still unidentified.<\/p><p>\u201cIt has nothing to do with genetics, nutrition, or individual lifestyle. This problem, however, can be avoided by recognising the symptoms during the early stages of salivary gland tumor formation.<\/p><p>\u201cIf you notice any unusual lump on your face or neck, seek treatment or consultations right away.
