Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCLUSTERING TWEETS USING CELLULAR GENETIC ALGORITHMAmr Adel, Essam ElFakharany, Amr BadrAs the popularity of Twitter continues to increase rapidly, it is extremely necessary to analyze the huge amount of data that Twitter users generate. A popular method of tweet analysis is clustering. Because most tweets are textual, this study focuses on clustering tweets based on their textual content similarity. This study presents tweet clustering using cellular genetic algorithm cGA. The … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 7 · 16 Jun 2014 · 7,917 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImmune-Based Therapies for Spinal Cord InjuryBasem I. Awad, Davina V. Gutierrez, Michael P. SteinmetzTraumatic Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) results in both focal and diffuse spinal cord pathologies that are exacerbated by an inflammatory response after the initial injury. Resident and infiltrating immune cells contribute significantly to the growth-refractory environment near the lesion and can intensify damage to spared tissue, resulting in impaired spontaneous functional recovery. Numerous studies have demonstrated that several immunomodulatory therapies … …Neuroscience International, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 17 Apr 2013 · 6,884 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSclerostin: A Novel Key to Bone and Dental TreatmentGalli Carlo, Lumetti Simone, Manfredi Edoardo et al.Problem statement: Tooth loss can induce dramatical remodeling of alveolar bone because of mechanical loading impairment and strategies to help maintain adequate bone levels for subsequent therapies are sorely needed. Recent discoveries have shown that osteocytes, matrix-embedded cells in bone, respond to mechanical stimulation by modulating the expression of the Sost gene, which encodes for the protein sclerostin. This protein … …Current Research in Dentistry, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 1 Jan 2013 · 8,161 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDietary Effects of Magnesium on Histamine Metabolism and Urine Acidity in Domestic FelinesSarah K. Martin, David L. Harmon, Charlotte E. Conway et al.Magnesium deficiency has been associated with increased histamine production in rats. Limitation of Mg with acidifying foods is common practice for management of urinary tract health in domestic cats. Nine healthy adult female shorthair cats were used in a 3 period random crossover experiment with fixed treatment sequences to test the effects of dietary Mg (0.06, 0.12 and 0.18% DM) … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 29 Dec 2012 · 8,169 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNatural Sensitizer for Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells Using Three Layers of Photoelectrode Thin Films with a Schottky BarrierHo Chang, Mu-Jung Kao, Tien-Li Chen et al.Problem statement: This study combines Au nanoparticles with TiO2 nanoparticles to form a Schottky barrier and applies it to the photoelectrode thin film of Dye-Sensitized Solar cells (DSSCs). Approach: First, commercial TiO2 powder (Degussa P25) was put into the alkaline solution to prepare TiO nanotubes (Tnt) by a hydrothermal process. Tnt were sintered at 550° to obtain TntC550 particles and … …Current Research in Nanotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 15 Jun 2011 · 7,990 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBeneficial Effect of a Cellulose-Containing Chew Treat on Canine Periodontal Disease in a Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled TrialA. C. Beynen, F. Van Altena, E. A. VisserProblem statement: There are indications that appropriate chew treats can contribute to the control of canine periodontal disease. It was reasoned that the incorporation of a cellulose fiber network into the treat may improve the efficacy, but for proof experimental data were required. Approach: A double-blind, placebo-controlled trial with privately owned dogs was carried out to assess the efficacy of … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 8,261 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComplexity in Human Perception of Brightness: A Historical Review on the Evolution of the Philosophy of Visual PerceptionKuntal Ghosh, Kamales BhaumikProblem statement: The “eye-brain” complex, which contributes maximally to visual perception, is no doubt a very interesting object for complexity study. In this review we shall try to present some of its aspects in perceiving brightness. It is a well-known fact that the perceived brightness of any surface depends on the brightness of the surfaces that surround it, a phenomenon … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,685 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractToxicological Response of the Green Alga Chlorella vulgaris, to Some Heavy MetalsE. Afkar, H. Ababna, A. A. FathiProblems statement: The disturbance of aquatic ecosystems provoked by heavy metals pollution from industrial and domestic sources, has as consequence the loss of biological diversity, as well as increased bioaccumulation and magnification of toxicants in the food chain. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of some heavy metals on some physiological activities of Chlorella vulgaris beyerinck … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2010 · 10,787 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Potassium Levels on Antioxidant Enzymes and Malondialdehyde Content under Drought Stress in Sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.)H. Soleimanzadeh, D. Habibi, M.R. Ardakani et al.Problem Statement: Drought stress as a major adverse factor can lower leaf water potential, leading to reduced turgor and some other responses and ultimately lower crop productivity in arid and semi arid zones. Sunflower is one of the main oil seed crops in Iran, where drought stress is the most limiting factor. Drought stress tolerance requires the activation of complex … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 10,785 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMathematical Model of Double Pass Photovoltaic Thermal Air Collector with FinsEbrahim M. Ali Alfegi, Kamaruzzaman Sopian, Mohd Yusof Hj Othman, Baharudin Bin YatimProblem statement: The efficiency of photovoltaic cells is generally temperature dependent (efficiency decrease when the temperature of the photovoltaic cells increase). This problem can be solved by cooling the solar cells during operation and operated at low temperature. Approach: This study presented a numerical model of double pass Photovoltaic Thermal (PV/T) solar air collector with fins attached to the back … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2009 · 8,011 accessesView PDFCite
