Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNeuropsychological Consequences of HIV and Drug AuseArun Venkatesan, Ola Selnes, Valerie Wojna et al.Accurate assessment of the functional consequences of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection and drugs of abuse are critical as large populations are afflicted with both. Both are interdependent epidemics with important socioeconomic consequences. Experimental studies in animal models and in vitro clearly indicate that HIV and drugs of abuse cause increased neurodegeneration, glial cell activation and enhanced HIV replication. Nevertheless, … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 6,662 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordImpact of Multiplex PCR Panel on Reducing Broad-Spectrum Antibiotic Use in Ventilator-Associated PneumoniaMaría Inés Staneloni, Emilio F. Huaier Arriazu et al.The extended use of broad-spectrum antimicrobials contribute to the growing threat of antimicrobial resistance. This study evaluated the impact of a multimodal strategy aiming at reducing the duration of broad-spectrum antimicrobial therapy in Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia (VAP). Conducted in a single Intensive Care Unit (ICU), this quasi-experimental, retrospective study compares a pre-intervention period (08/01/2018-07/01/2019) with an intervention period (08/01/2022-07/01/2023). Adult patients … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 8 Jul 2025 · 6,582 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordModified U-Net With VGG11-BN Encoder and Frost Filter Based Pre-Processing for Copy Move Forgery LocalizationAshutosh Pandey, Niranjan Lal, Ashish Kumar ChakravertiCopy-move forgery is a widely used forgery method in digital image forensics, which involves copying and pasting a part of an image into another part of the image to hide or duplicate the visual information. This makes it difficult to detect such manipulations, particularly when the regions are subjected to geometric and photometric transformations. A Frost Filter-Enhanced Encoder-Decoder U-Net is … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 10 · 6 Oct 2026 · 457 accessesView PDFCite
Letters to the EditorOpen accessAll words, across the recordIs Hydroxychloroquine a Safe and Effective Choice for Covid-19 ProphylaxisRodrigo Moisés de Almeida-Leite, Tais Rondello Bonatti, Carolina Rodrigues Ponzoni et al.The authors speculate about the possibility of Hydroxychloroquine as Covid-19 Phrophylaxis in the dose of 400 mg per week. The authors compared the experience of Malaria phrophylaxis in this dose, with acceptable safety profile. Also, we compared in vitro susceptibility of SARS-Cov-2 with that of Plasmodium falciparum. This agent show significant higher potency for the first. Also, the extended Half-life … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 16, Issue 3 · 29 Jul 2020 · 7,048 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordA Quasi Delay Insensitive Reduced Stack Pre-Charged Half Buffer based High Speed Adder using pipeline templates for Asynchronous CircuitsD. Jayanthi, M. RajaramProblem statement: Recent research in asynchronous design technique is making asynchronous circuits an increasingly practical alternative. These challenges include the increasing pressure for low power, the growing challenges of predicting the increasing impact of wire load and delay and the performance penalty associated with supporting communication between different clock domains Asynchronous is binary signals, but there is no common or … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 7 · 7 Jun 2012 · 7,078 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordIn vivo Efficacy of Murraya paniculata Leaf in Controlling Natural Helminthiasis in GoatDuangjai Boonkusol, Janejira Detraksa, Kansuda Duangsrikaew, Wuttipong TongbaiThis study investigated the in vivo effect of Murraya paniculata leaf on gastrointestinal nematodes reduction, growth rates and haematological changes of goats. Four experimental groups (n = 6) of goats naturally acquired gastrointestinal nematodes were control (GI) (untreated), positive control (GII) (treated with albendazole, 6 mg/Kg BW) and GIII and GIV treated with 5 and 10 g/Kg BW of M. … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 1 May 2019 · 7,701 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordEffect of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Mannan-Oligosaccharides on Daily Weight Gain and Health of Pre-Weaned Holstein Calves in ChilePedro Melendez, Pablo Pinedo, Maria Paz Marin, Angelica AriasThe objective was to compare the effect of S. cerevisiae and mannan-oligosaccharides on Average Daily Gain (ADG), live weight and health of dairy calves in Chile. Calves were weighed at birth and randomly assigned to 3 groups: (i) Yeast (YS): 5 g/calf/day of a live yeast (n = 25); (ii) Mannan (MN): 3 g/calf/day of mannan-oligosaccharides (n = 25); (iii) … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 1 Feb 2018 · 8,073 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordEvaluating the Effects of Climate Change and Variability on Water Resources: A Case Study of the Cheliff Basin in AlgeriaYamina Elmeddahi, Hacene Mahmoudi, Abderrahmane Issaadi et al.In aim to well understand of the association between climate change, variability and their impact on water resources availability, an analysis was conducted of the trends in rainfall and stream flows across the Cheliff basin in Algeria.
