EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractChoice Meaning and Context: Two Sides of the Same Coin?Saadettin Sel, Joachim Storsberg, Mark A. Brown, Christian SchmidtThe human intellect is a powerful instrument to be applied to problems. Expressed differently, sharpening one’s acumen by regular exposure to conundra can be likened to exercising a muscle or refining a tool such as creating brushes to suit certain tasks. Such applications hinge on a reasonable understanding of a given problem and the presentation of opposing viewpoints of the … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 24 May 2017 · 6,923 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractElevated Th17 and IL-23 in Hypertensive Patients with Acutly Increased Blood PressureJunxian Wang, Jianying Chen, Can Chen et al.Problem statement: Many severe cardiovascular complications such as stroke and heart attack can result from acutely increased blood pressure in patients with hypertension. The underlying mechanisms remain unclear despite of extensive study. To characterize the inflammatory mechanisms in hypertensive patients with acute blood pressure increase, we tested circulating Th17 levels, IL-23R expression and plasma levels of IL-17 and IL-23 in … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 21 May 2012 · 7,911 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnti-Carcinoma, Anti-Obesity, Antidiabetic and Immune Defence Effects of Vernonia amygdalina Leaf Extract and Leaf Powder, in Two Human Cancer PatientsUtoh-Nedosa Uchechukwu AnastasiaProblem statement: Two cancer patients were treated with Vernonia amygdalina (V. amygdalina) leaf extract and leaf powder. The leaf extract of V amygdalina was administered orally for 9 months to the first patient in response to his reception of a medical diagnosis of having traces of prostate cancer. Approach: This patient was also over weight by 40 kg. The V. … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 5 Aug 2011 · 8,616 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Activation Energies on Thermal Explosion in the Interior of the EarthAmos Oladele PopoolaProblem statement: Literatures have shown that thermal processes in the interior of the earth and the classical thermal explosion are analogous and that combustion processes are characterized by ignition and explosion. The heat released during the thermal explosion that occurs in the interior of the earth requires more attention. Approach: The study investigated the role of activation energies ratio in … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 27 Jul 2011 · 7,277 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Effective Queue Management Scheme for Data CommunicationSheela Thavasi, Nityanandam NatarajanProblem statement: The growth in the needs of Internet applications that transmit massive amount of data has led to the emergence of Effective Queue Management. Approach: Queues were used to smooth spikes in incoming packet rates and to allow the router sufficient time for packet processing. When the waiting time is less a better queue management is ensured thereby resulting … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 7 Mar 2011 · 7,758 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Study of Mashup as a Software Application Development Technique with Examples from an End-User Programming PerspectiveLiu Na, Ahmed Patel, Rodziah Latih et al.The purpose of this study is to present, introduce and explain the principles, concepts and techniques of mashups through an analysis of mashup tools from End-user Development (EuD) software engineering perspectives, since it is a new programming paradigm. Problem statement: Although mashup tools supporting the creation of mashups rely heavily on data integration, they still require users to have reasonable … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 12 · 2 Nov 2010 · 8,425 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractData Replication Using Read-One-Write-All Monitoring Synchronization Transaction System in Distributed EnvironmentNoraziah Ahmad, Ahmed N. Abdalla, Roslina Mohd SidekNowadays, the demand of transmitted information over networks increase rapidly and the demand for steady bandwidth seems to be out of control. Particularly organizations need to provide updated data to users that might be geographically remote and handling a vast amount of requested data distributed in multiple sites. Problem statement: Replication in distributed environment has become increasingly popular due to … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 10 · 30 Jul 2010 · 7,048 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSimilarity Solutions for Free Convection Between Two Parallel Porous Walls at Different TemperaturesA. J. Omowaye, O. K. KorikoProblem statement: A two dimensional steady laminar free convective flow of viscous incompressible fluid between two parallel porous walls is considered. Approach: Using the similarity variable, the partial differential equations were reduced to ordinary differential equations. The coupled ordinary differential equations were solved numerically using shooting method. The effect of various physical parameters, such as the Prandtl number, Grashof number, … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,783 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAntibacterial Activity of Marine Source Extracts Against Multidrug Resistance OrganismsNagi A. AL-Haj, Nurmas I. Mashan, Mariana N. Shamsudin et al.Problem statement: Antimicrobial resistance is the major problem of global dimensions with a significant impact on morbidity, mortality and healthcare-associated costs. The problem has recently been worsened by the steady increase in multiresistant strains and by the restriction of antibiotic discovery and development programs. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, pseudomonads and Escherichia coli are a major nosocomial and community-acquired pathogens for which … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 10,073 accessesView PDFCite
