Its availability, practicity, high acceptance among patients, and the permanent improvement in surgical techniques, anesthesia, blood replacement, and neonatal care have popularized the procedure as a safe and reasonable alternative to vaginal delivery for any individual born in the twenty-first century. Beyond an established recommended rate of 15% for all births, presently the main challenge in obstetrical care is to limit its use to patients that need the procedure in order to keep an adequate perinatal outcome. The rate of CS has been used in many healthcare settings as an indicator of an individual or institutional obstetrical performance. The issue of overuse of CS as a birth alternative beyond clear maternal or fetal indications has received extensive analysis not only from the reproductive medicine point of view but also from neonatal, ethical, financial, and public health stakeholders.

Mother-to-child transmission is higher when mothers are diagnosed late during pregnancy, in advanced stages with a high HIV viral load, and labor with membranes ruptured for more than 4 h, especially when the antiretroviral treatment is not respected. During vaginal delivery, the risk of HIV transmitting to infant is due to microtransfusions during uterine contractions or by newborn exposure to cervicovaginal secretions or blood. Although the indication of C-section in HIV-positive women is controversial, there are some situations in which C-section remains mandatory.

To clarify the efficacy and safety of cesarean myomectomy, large-scale randomized controlled studies and studies explaining the mid-term and long-term outcomes of the cesarean myomectomy are required. Traditionally, cesarean myomectomy is performed from the uterine serosa as in the usual abdominal myomectomy. Although the surgical technique is the same as intracapsular myomectomy, a novel cesarean myomectomy technique, endometrial myomectomy, introduced into the obstetrics practice for minimizing the risk of adhesion formation and diminishing the blood loss during surgery.

Fractional derivatives (FD) initiative concept is quite old and its history spans three centuries. The variety of papers dedicated to FD is multiplied swiftly in the mid-twentieth century and later decades. One of the motives for the full-size interest within the discipline of FD is that it’s far feasible to describe the variety of physical [1], synthetic [2], and organic [3] occurrence with fractional differential equations (FDEs). As a new branch of applied mathematics, the field of FD can be seen in many applications. Nevertheless, more and more compelling implementations have been found in various engineering and science fields over the past few decades (see [4]). It is noted that the existing theory of FDEs is committed to a larger part of the research works (see [5, 6, 7, 8]). While modeling functional structures, ambient noise and time delays need to be taken into account, which might be very beneficial in building extra sensible fashions of sciences, and so on [9]. It is referred to as the pattern direction houses of the stochastic fractional partial differential gadget powered by way of area time white noise [10].
The problems in a stochastic environment replicate the modeling of single-sever
However, only few introductions and discussions exist on the definition of finite-time stability in stochastic finite space using fixed point theorem approach. Burton [19] started to analyze the stability characters of dynamical systems broadly using fixed point theorems. Subsequently, few authors applied fixed point approach to establish sufficient conditions for stability of the differential systems (see [20, 21, 22, 23, 24]). Based on the above discussions, this chapter provides finite-time stability of the Caputo sense FDEs via fixed point theorems.
The primary contribution of this chapter is defined as follows:
A fractional higher-order stochastic delay system (FSDS) is considered in finite-dimensional stochastic settings.
Weaker hypothesis on nonlinear terms and appropriate fixed-point analysis are utilized to obtain the existence and uniqueness of solution.
A new set of generalized sufficient conditions for finite-time stability of a certain FSDS is established by using Generalized Gronwall-Bellman inequality.
Novelties and challenges of this chapter are described through the subsequent statements:
Finite-time stability analysis for FSDS is new in literature of finite-dimensional fractional stochastic settings.
It is a challenge to tackle the proposed system with a norm estimation on nonlinear stochastic terms as described in this chapter.
It is more complex to verify the weaker assumptions of the system and the derived result is new, has not been analyzed with the existing literature.
Obtained result is proved in stochastic nature with square norm settings.
Organization of this chapter is as follows: system description and preliminaries are provided in Section 2. Existence and uniqueness of solution are provided in Section 3. Finite-time stability result is proved in Section 4 and Section 5 consists of a numerical example.
define a column-wise matrix sum
Further, let as define the matrix norm
Consider the following system:
where
where
We have the following square norm estimations:
and then
where
for zero initial value has the below form:
where
Substitute the above expression into (2), one can get
since
Using [25] and Lemma 2.2, the solution of (1) is
Define the nonlinear operator
Multiply by
First, we estimate (i):
By Burkholder-Davis-Gundy inequality and Assumption 1, the estimate for (ii) is given by
From the above two estimates of (i) and (ii), Eq. (3) becomes
This implies that
Hence, from statement of the Theorem 3.1, the nonlinear operator (
According to Lemma 2.1, let as take
and
Moreover,
Then from the statement of Theorem 4.1, we get
Hence the system (1) is finite-time stable in mean square. Hence the proof. □
Consider Eq. (1) in the below matrix form:
where
Further, we have the following fractional delayed
From Eq.(5) and using basic calculation, one can get
Hence we verified Theorem 3.1. Further, it is easy to verify that for any
Hence,

In this chapter, we have derived some meaningful and general results for finite-time stability of nonlinear fractional stochastic delay systems. Existence, uniqueness of solution and stability analysis of FSDS have been proved in finite-dimensional stochastic fractional higher-order differential system. Finally, a numerical simulation test is carried out to validate the obtained theoretical results. Derived result generalizes many existing results with integer and fractional-order systems.

It has culinary and medicinal benefits. CAP activates its receptor, transient receptor potential vanilloid subfamily 1 (TRPV1), which is expressed in the sensory and motor neurons, adipocytes, liver, vascular smooth muscle cells, neuromuscular junction, skeletal muscle, heart and brain. The specificity of CAP to activate TRPV1 is the fundamental mechanism for its medicinal benefits to treat pain, obesity, hypertension, and other diseases. Preclinical data from rodent model of high fat diet-induced obesity collectively suggest that CAP exerts its effects by activating TRPV1 signaling pathway, which stimulates thermogenic mechanisms in the white and brown adipose tissues to induce browning of white adipose tissues and brown adipose tissue thermogenesis. This leads to enhancement of metabolic activity and thermogenesis to counter obesity. Although CAP and its pungent and non-pungent analogs are used in human clinical studies, their effects on satiety and energy expenditure have been the highlights of such studies. The precise mechanism of action of CAP has not been evaluated in humans. This article summarizes these data and suggests that long-term safety and tolerance studies are important for advancing CAP to treat human obesity.",book:{id:"6810",slug:"capsaicin-and-its-human-therapeutic-development",title:"Capsaicin and its Human Therapeutic Development",fullTitle:"Capsaicin and its Human Therapeutic Development"},signatures:"Baskaran Thyagarajan, Vivek Krishnan and Padmamalini Baskaran",authors:null},{id:"61453",title:"A Matter of Taste: Capsaicinoid Diversity in Chile Peppers and the Importance to Human Food Preference",slug:"a-matter-of-taste-capsaicinoid-diversity-in-chile-peppers-and-the-importance-to-human-food-preferenc",totalDownloads:1279,totalCrossrefCites:0,totalDimensionsCites:1,abstract:"Chile peppers are valued worldwide for their distinct capsaicinoid compounds that have been used traditionally in medicine and culinary practices. With 32 known species, five of them domesticated, they provide unique chemical profiles, when consumed by humans. Capsaicinoids, the spicy compounds, are alkaloids used to deter herbivory in the wild, offering protection to the chile pepper fruit seeds. Among the 22 known capsaicinoid structures, capsaicin and dihydrocapsaicin are normally the most abundant. In humans, capsaicin binds to nociceptor TRPV1 that generates a heat sensation. Capsaicin also mitigates inflammation responses in the digestive tract and has the potential to aid in nutrient absorption.

Biochemistry examines macromolecules - proteins, nucleic acids, carbohydrates, and lipids – and their building blocks, structures, functions, and interactions. Much of biochemistry is devoted to enzymes, proteins that catalyze chemical reactions, enzyme structures, mechanisms of action and their roles within cells. Biochemistry also studies small signaling molecules, coenzymes, inhibitors, vitamins, and hormones, which play roles in life processes. Biochemical experimentation, besides coopting classical chemistry methods, e.g., chromatography, adopted new techniques, e.g., X-ray diffraction, electron microscopy, NMR, radioisotopes, and developed sophisticated microbial genetic tools, e.g., auxotroph mutants and their revertants, fermentation, etc. More recently, biochemistry embraced the ‘big data’ omics systems. Initial biochemical studies have been exclusively analytic: dissecting, purifying, and examining individual components of a biological system; in the apt words of Efraim Racker (1913 –1991), “Don’t waste clean thinking on dirty enzymes.” Today, however, biochemistry is becoming more agglomerative and comprehensive, setting out to integrate and describe entirely particular biological systems. The ‘big data’ metabolomics can define the complement of small molecules, e.g., in a soil or biofilm sample; proteomics can distinguish all the comprising proteins, e.g., serum; metagenomics can identify all the genes in a complex environment, e.g., the bovine rumen.

Thus proteomics, an area of research that detects all protein forms expressed in an organism, including splice isoforms and post-translational modifications, is more suitable than genomics for a comprehensive understanding of the biochemical processes that govern life. The most common proteomics applications are currently in the clinical field for the identification, in a variety of biological matrices, of biomarkers for diagnosis and therapeutic intervention of disorders. From the comparison of proteomic profiles of control and disease or different physiological states, which may emerge, changes in protein expression can provide new insights into the roles played by some proteins in human pathologies. Understanding how proteins function and interact with each other is another goal of proteomics that makes this approach even more intriguing. Specialized technology and expertise are required to assess the proteome of any biological sample. Currently, proteomics relies mainly on mass spectrometry (MS) combined with electrophoretic (1 or 2-DE-MS) and/or chromatographic techniques (LC-MS/MS). MS is an excellent tool that has gained popularity in proteomics because of its ability to gather a complex body of information such as cataloging protein expression, identifying protein modification sites, and defining protein interactions. The Proteomics topic aims to attract contributions on all aspects of MS-based proteomics that, by pushing the boundaries of MS capabilities, may address biological problems that have not been resolved yet.",coverUrl:"https://cdn.intechopen.com/series_topics/covers/18.jpg",keywords:"Mono- and Two-Dimensional Gel Electrophoresis (1-and 2-DE), Liquid Chromatography (LC), Mass Spectrometry/Tandem Mass Spectrometry (MS; MS/MS), Proteins"}],annualVolumeBook:{},thematicCollection:[],selectedSeries:null,selectedSubseries:null},seriesLanding:{item:null},libraryRecommendation:{success:null,errors:{},institutions:[]},route:{name:"chapter.detail",path:"/chapters/36040",hash:"",query:{},params:{id:"36040"},fullPath:"/chapters/36040",meta:{},from:{name:null,path:"/",hash:"",query:{},params:{},fullPath:"/",meta:{}}}},function(){var m;(m=document.currentScript||document.scripts[document.scripts.length-1]).parentNode.removeChild(m)}()
