Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAstrocytes Store for Memory and CognitionMajid Karimi BaghmalekiIn humans, protoplasmic astrocytes are found with high density in the cortex and hippocampus (both parts responsible for memory and cognition) and each astrocyte is in contact with two million of synapses. Astrocytes are responsible for the synaptogenesis and the removal of synapses, which is the basis of learning and memory. The synaptogenesis increases sevenfold with the addition of astrocytes … …Neuroscience International, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 21 Apr 2021 · 17,209 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDiabetic Retinopathy Detection using Deep Learning TechniquesAswin Shriram Thiagarajan, Jithendran Adikesavan, Santhi Balachandran, Brindha Ganapathyagraharam RamamoorthyDiabetic Retinopathy is a type of eye condition induced by diabetes, which damages the blood vessels in the retinal region and the area covered with lesions of varying magnitude determines the severity of the disease. It is one of the most leading causes of blindness amongst the employed community. A variety of factors are observed to play a role in … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 16, Issue 3 · 13 Mar 2020 · 10,272 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProtective Effect of Curcumin Against Hepatic Toxicity Induced by Lithium Carbonate (Li2 Co3)Gehan B.A. Youssef, Ahlam F. Hamoda, Rabab R. Elzoghby et al.The current work was done on four groups of rats (10 for each) to detect the hepato-protective characters of curcumin on the toxicity induced by lithium carbonate. The oral administration of Li2 Co3 for one-month lead to noticeable decrease in the SOD, CAT and GSH while the increase in the GPx and some histological changes in the portal tissues including … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 31 Jul 2019 · 7,603 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAbout the Internal Structure of a Bone and its Functional RoleAntonio Apicella, Raffaella Aversa, Francesco Tamburrino, Florian Ion Tiberiu PetrescuThe human skeleton has the primary role of supporting all the organs that make up the body and at the same time to protect them permanently. It is made up so that it can hold and hold together all internal human organs, protecting them permanently, but also allowing them to move and exercise all their functionalities. This paper wants to … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 26 May 2018 · 8,402 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAmeliorative Impacts of Tribulus terrestris Against Ivermectin-Induced Hepato-Renal Toxicity in Rabbit: Pharmacological and Histopathological StudySally I. Ismaiel, Sameh M. Farouk, Raafat A. El-Ramady, Waleed F. KhalilThe current work aimed to investigate the protective effects of Tribulus terrestris extracts against ivermectin-induced hepatic and renal toxicity in male rabbit. Selenium plus vitamin E was used as a comparative standard drug to evaluate the efficacy of Tribulus terrestris extract on some hematological parameters, kidney and liver enzymes as well as associated histopathological changes. This work was carried out … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 12 Jan 2017 · 7,766 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReview of the Progress in Corneal Neovascularization Animal ModelsShuci Tian, Shurong Wang, Yuxi He et al.Corneal Neovascularization (CNV), the extensive growth of blood vessels from conjunctiva into the cornea. It is a sight-threatening condition that can decreases eyesight and even leads to blindness. The pathologic growth of blood vessels impairs light transmission, promotes scar formation and causes inflammations, which harm visual acuity. Abnormal angiogenesis plays an important role in the process of CNV, which may … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 28 Nov 2015 · 8,421 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Economic System for Screening of Diabetic Retinopathy Using Fundus ImagesG.S. Annie Grace Vimala, S. Kaja MohideenDelayed length of time of the diabetes may influence the tiny blood vessels of the retina bringing about Diabetic Retinopathy (DR). It is one of the major root causes of the blindness across the globe. Routine eye screening of patients with diabetes serves to discover DR at the early stage. The conventional visual assessment protocol is time consuming and laborious. … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 4 · 5 Jan 2015 · 6,909 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBLOOD VESSEL DIAMETER MEASUREMENT ON RETINAL IMAGENidhal K. El Abbadi, Enas Al SaadiAccurate measurement of vessel diameters on retinal images plays an important part in diagnosing cardiovascular diseases and early signs of certain systemic diseases, such as diabetes and hypertension. In this study we develop new method based on computer aided to determine the width of retinal blood vessels by analysing the color fundus image. Retinal vessel diameter was measured based on … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 5 · 18 Jan 2014 · 7,527 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAUTOMATIC RETINAL VESSEL TORTUOSITY MEASUREMENTNidhal Khdhair El Abbadi, Enas Hamood Al SaadiRetinal vascular vessels have the role to indicate the retinal diseases and for systematic diseases when there are any abnormalities in retinal vascular pattern. A characteristic of the vascular pattern that is appreciated by clinicians is vascular tortuosity, i.e., how curved or kinked a blood vessel, either vein or artery, appears along its course. In this study we suggest a … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 11 · 21 Sep 2013 · 7,210 accessesView PDFCite
