Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleTrial Design and Analysis with Incomplete Paired DataMark Chang, Jing WangFor a clinical trial design with paired data, it often involves missing observations. In such a case, the data from the trial become a mixture of paired and unpaired data. A commonly used approach for the analysis of the trial data is to ignore the incomplete pairs. Such a treatment of missing data is not statistically efficient. We propose a … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 12 Nov 2015 · 7,893 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAdaptive Superiority and Noninferiority Trial Design with Paired Binary DataMark Chang, Jing WangNon-inferiority of a diagnostic test to the standard is a common issue in medical research. For instance, we may be interested in determining if a new diagnostic test is noninferior to the standard reference test because the new test might be inexpensive to the extent that some small inferior margin in sensitivity or specificity may be acceptable. Noninferiority trials are … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 7 Sep 2015 · 8,239 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePain and Suffering in Invertebrates: An Insight on CephalopodsGiorgia della Rocca, Alessandra Di Salvo, Giacomo Giannettoni, Mary Ellen GoldbergInvertebrates are a broad group of animals that includes more than 90% of the estimated 10 million species in the world. Some species are abundantly used by man in scientific research and for human consumption. However, the current legislation is still very lacking about the protection toward conditions of pain, suffering, distress or lasting harm that these animals may suffer … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 15 Jun 2015 · 8,731 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMedical Abdominal Visceral Pain in DogsAlice Catanzaro, Giorgia della Rocca, Alessandra Di Salvo, Mary Ellen GoldbergAbdominal visceral pain of medical origin is one of the most frequent reasons for request of medical treatment in humans. Its control is of paramount importance not only for ethical reasons, but also because, if untreated, pain can cause a stress response leading to alterations concerning many organs and apparatuses. Causes of acute or chronic medical visceral pain in men … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 15 Jun 2015 · 14,002 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDiagnosis of Pain in Small Companion AnimalsGiorgia della Rocca, Alice Catanzaro, Alessandra Di Salvo, Mary Ellen GoldbergIt is now widely accepted that animals are able to experience pain in a similar way to humans. Acute and/or chronic pain is associated not only with many surgical procedures, but also with various medical diseases, where pain may increase morbidity and mortality. Moreover, some types of pain (e.g., neuropathic pain) can be considered as an illness in themselves. Recognizing … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 15 Jun 2015 · 8,003 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Novel Unique Node Based Clustering and Location-Key Pair Based Security for Wireless NetworksT. R. Vedhavathy, M. S.K. ManikandanWireless ad hoc networks are used in emergency situations especially for surveillance and monitoring. The nodes in the ad hoc networks are self-organized and can accommodate by themselves with the available resources. The nodes are capable of random movement and hence there is no fixed infrastructure. The purpose of the ad hoc networks can be fulfilled only if all nodes … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 23 Apr 2015 · 6,435 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleTransient Receptor Potential Vanilloid 1 Involvement in Animal Pain PerceptionCristina Vercelli, R. Barbero, G. ReIn last decades, Transient Receptor Potential Vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) has been the target of a large number of scientific investigations. It has been identified as a polymodal transducer molecule on a sub-set of primary sensory neurons which responds to various endogenous and exogenous stimuli including noxious heat (more than 42°C), protons and vanilloids such as capsaicin, the hot ingredient of … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 30 Mar 2015 · 7,269 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAN INNOVATIVE MORPHOLOGICAL APPROACH FOR NOISE REMOVAL CUM EDGE DETECTION FOR DIGITIZED PAINTINGSS. P. Karuppiah, S. K. SrivatsaThe older paintings suffer from breaks in the substrate, the paint, or the varnish. When we digitized these paintings, they can be modified using mathematical algorithms and cracks are eliminated so as to maintain the quality. The field of computer vision is concerned with extracting features and information from images in order to make analysis of images easier, so that … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 8 · 19 Jun 2014 · 6,705 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAttaining the Room Comfort by Solar Reflective PaintM. Sakthivel, M. Sekar, C. Ramesh, S. Satheesh KumarThe objective of this research was to provide the Room comfort by means of Solar Reflective Paint (SRP) on the roof and thereby reducing the consumption of electrical energy. Solar heat diffuses through roof into the room resulting in human discomfort. Human discomfort leads to the usage of electrical energy. Valuable energy has to be conserved. Three different samples of … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 5 · 18 Sep 2012 · 7,194 accessesView PDFCite
