Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of Omega-3 Fatty Acids on Nerve Conduction Velocity (NCV) and F-wave Latency in Patients with Diabetic polyneuropathyNaser Zangiabadi, Mohamad N. Ahrari, Nouzar NakhaeeDiabetes mellitus with the prevalence rate of 8.9-12.3% in human population, ultimately leads to the peripheral nervous system involvement in many patients. It causes various types of polyneuropathies, which may manifest abnormalities such as impaired nerve conduction velocity (NCV) and prolonged F-wave latency. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of omega-3 fatty acids on NCV and … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 9,279 accessesView PDFCite

The statistical society of the study was 80 patients which were equally divided into 2 groups. One group received olive leaf extract and the other group received dexametasone mouth … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,955 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractData Quality and IndicatorsJorge Matute, A.P. GuptaThis study highlights the importance of collecting good quality data from multidisciplinary studies. Bias in data may be the result of instrument inaccuracies, imprecise data recording techniques, inaccurate data entry to computers or inappropriate statistical analysis and presentation. Recommendations for good data quality control are given. Different types of data are discussed: raw data, simple indicators and complex indicators. It … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,861 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInefficacy of Topical Diclofenac in Arthritic HorsesNicolás F. Villarino, Tomas J. Vispo, Marcos et al.The objective of the present study was test the anti-inflammatory efficacy of diclofenac dietilamine, applied epicutaneously at a dose rate of 0.44 mg kg-1, in a model of acute arthritis in horses. Four clinical end-points, as well as two biochemical markers, were used as surrogate markers of the required clinical response (analgesia, anti-inflammatory). Low diclofenac concentrations were measured in blood … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2006 · 7,612 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEducational Attainment of Jordan's Population and Labor ForceMwafaq D. Al-KhaldiThe analysis of the educational attainment by Gender tells us about the general demand for education and qualitative change both in population and labor force. The term educational attainment used here refers to the actual level of education completed by a person as it is superior to the enrolment ratio - as a proxy for educational attainment - especially for … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2006 · 8,012 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Comparison of Spatio-Temporal Bayesian Models for Reconstruction of Rainfall Fields in a Cloud Seeding ExperimentSujit k. sahu, Giovanna Jona Lasinio, Arianna orasi, Kanti V. MardiaIn response to the drought experienced in Southern Italy a rain seeding project has been setup and developed during the years 1989-1994. The initiative was taken with the purpose of applying existing methods of rain enhancement technology to regions of south Italy including Puglia. The aim of this study is to provide statistical support for the evaluation of the experimental … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 6,813 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEstimation Techniques for Monitoring and Controlling the Performance of the Computer Communication NetworksIbrahiem M.M. El Emary, Adanan I. Al RabiaThis study was concerned with making a comparative study between four types of time series model with the goal of choosing the optimum one to predict the performance of a computer communication network. The investigated four types of time series are: Least Square (LS), Fourier series, Exponential Weighted Moving Average (EWMA) and the Auto Regressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA). Comparative … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2005 · 7,131 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparison of Probability Curves Obtained from 2 Quantitative Allergen-specific IgE Assays: FEIA and 3gAllergyTMT. M. Li, T. Chuang, S. M. Li, D. Hovanec-BurnsThe validity and benefit of probability curves in allergen-specific IgE (sIgE) testing and their applicability to more than a few allergens are still pending. One study[1] presented probability curves for 4 food allergens and proposed decision points to rule out the need for food challenges in his clinic. Since then, such cutoffs were reported by Boyano-Martinez[2] to be dependent on … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,740 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnergy and Carbon Flux Coupling: Multi-ecosystem Comparisons Using Artificial Neural NetworkAssefa M. Melesse, Rodney S. HanleyA multi-ecosystems carbon flux simulation from energy fluxes is presented. A new statistical learning technique based on Artificial Neural Network (ANN) back propagation algorithm and multi-layer perceptron architecture was used in the CO2 simulation. Four input layers (net radiation, soil heat flux, sensible and latent heat flux) were used for training (calibration) and testing (verification) of model outputs. The 15-days … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2005 · 7,349 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordStatistical Demonstration of Superiority of High-Frequency Short-Tests in Assessment When Teaching Statistics to Enhance Higher Student Pass RatesSolly Matshonisa Seeletse, Tshepo Matsose, Gezani Richman Miyambu, Eunice Lebogang SesaleWhen facilitating learning, quick and small assessments can assist to detect areas that require further reinforcement and also identify students who need extra help in understanding the concepts taught. This paper demonstrates with Statistics, a difficult subject to pass at Higher Education Institution (HEI) level, that when these tests are administered at high frequencies and in large numbers, students are … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 9 · 5 Oct 2017 · 7,158 accessesView PDFCite
