Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Serological Gastric Biopsy: A Non-endoscopical/Histopathologic Diagnostic Approach in Management of the Dyspeptic PatientsR. A.K. Mahmoud, H. H. Morcos, A. A. Hegazi et al.Objective: To asses the sensitivity, specificity and the predictive value of a 'gastropanel' blood test, including serum pepsinogen I (S-PGI) and amidated gastrin-17 (S-G-17) in the diagnosis of atrophic gastritis most probably due to helicobacter pylori (Hp) and to compare the results of serology with the endoscopic/histopathologic findings as a gold standard diagnostic tool. This study comprised 86 dyspeptic outpatients … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 7,131 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Near Real-time Early Warning System on Erosion HazardsFaisal H. Ali, Tew K. HuiWith many incidences of landslides, mudslides and erosion occurrences lately, especially in the highlands in Malaysia, properties were damaged and lives were lost. Seeing the need of resolving and minimizing such untoward incidences, a study has been embarked on developing a near real-time early warning system on erosion hazards so as to provide an early warning to the public, whenever … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,706 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Environmental and Hydraulic Performance of Bio-Composite Revetment BlocksThamer A. Mohamed, Nor A. Alias, Abdul H. Ghazali, Mohd. S. JaafarIt is necessary to develop a concrete revetment block which can cater for environment and at the same time it will be effective in protecting river banks (stabilize the slope of banks) from scouring during flood. In the present study, the environmental and hydraulic performance of the proposed revetment block was evaluated through laboratory and field tests. The tested revetment … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,967 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractContributions To The Study Of Heavy Metals Concentration Variation In Sedimentable Dusts According To The Distance From The Pollution SourceMariana DOBRA, Vasile VIMAN, Gheorghe VÂTCĂThe environment in areas where geological and mining activities, such as the extraction of ores containing heavy metals, take place, is heavily polluted with dusts resulting from these activities, as well as with residual waters from the mines. Depending on the meteorological conditions, as well as on the conditions under which sedimentable dusts or dusts in suspension are emitted into … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,968 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance Study On An Intermediate Temperature Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (IT-SOFT) Fabricated By Dry Pressing MethodA. Rifau, Z. Zainal, D. Mutharasu et al.An intermediate temperature solid oxide fuel cell (IT-SOFC) has been developed by using the dry pressing method. Widely studied materials were used for anode and cathode and SDC based electrolyte was used in this study. The cells were fabricated by dry-pressed at different pressures using a die without any binding material, a known amount of three electrode materials in powder … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,968 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHeroin-Induces Differential Protein Expression by Normal Human Astrocytes (NHA)Jessica L. Reynolds, Supriya D. Mahajan, Donald Sykes, Madhavan P.N. NairHeroin use is postulated to act as a cofactor in the neuropathogenesis of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1) infection. Astrocytes, integral components of the CNS, are reported to be susceptible to HIV-1 infection. Upon activation, astrocytes release a number of immunoregulatory products or modulate the expression of a number of proteins that foster the immunopathogenesis of HIV-1 infection. However, the role … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 7,261 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNano TiO2 Deposited on Crude Mineral and the Photoactivity to the Degradation of ChloroformHaiyan Song, Hongfu Jiang, Xingqing Liu, Guangyao MengSupported TiO2 catalysts have increasingly attracted intention in recent years because of their potential application to photocatalytic degradation of organic pollutants in water and air. In this work, nano TiO2 particles deposited on crude nonmetallic mineral were prepared by a Sol-gel process, the photocatalyst for degradation of chloroform was tested and optimized with respect to TiO2 loading, catalyst dosage and … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 7,368 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMPLS over Segmented WDM Optical Packet Switching NetworksHakim Mellah, Fouad M. AbbouWavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) is a promising solution for data transport in future all-optical wide area networks. Such networks consist of fibers joined by dynamically controllable cross-connects which provide purely optical transport between pairs of network access stations. Optical packet switching (OPS) is optical switching with the finest granularity. Incoming packets are switched all-optically without being converted to electrical signal. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 5 · 31 May 2006 · 6,750 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStochastically Simulating Low Morale - A Risk Factor Effect on Risk ManagementP. K.A. Suri, Rachna SoniOne of the proposed purposes for software process simulation is the management of software development risks, usually discussed within the category of project planning and management. However, modeling and simulation primarily for the purpose of software development risk management has not been explored and is quite limited. This study describes an approach to simulate Low Morale - a risk factor, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2006 · 6,950 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Simulation-Based Comparison of Multimedia Traffic Prioritization Schemes for High-Performance Input-Queued Packet SwitchesSalman A. AlQahtaniThis study investigates the problem of enabling Quality of Service (QoS) of multimedia traffic at the input port of high-performance input-queued packet switches using a simulation-based evaluation. We focus on the possibility of assuring QoS of multimedia traffic in such switches by implementing traffic prioritization at the input port where each input-queue has been modified to provide a separate buffer … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2006 · 7,074 accessesView PDFCite
