Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAvailability and Physical Properties of Residues from Major Agricultural Crops for Energy Conversion Through Thermochemical ProcessesYaning Zhang, A. E. Ghaly, Bingxi LiPlant residues from the major agricultural crops (wheat, rice, corn, soybean, sugarcane, coffee and cotton) are abundantly available renewable resources that can be used to supply energy through thermochemical conversion processes. The available amounts of plant residues from these crops and their physical properties (moisture content, particle size, bulk density and porosity) were determined. The annual residues from the wheat, … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 4 Aug 2012 · 9,663 accessesView PDFCite

Only 7.5% of rural areas have population more than 1000 persons. Therefore, the … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,925 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleHELICOBACTER INFECTION AND ALLERGY IN MAJORITY AND ROMA POPULATION IN THE CZECH REPUBLICRichter Josef, Vetvicka Vaclav, Kral Vlastimil et al.In our paper we decided to evaluate the hypothesis about the relation between living conditions, infection with Helicobacter pylori and development of allergic problems. Two groups of children, one from the Roma population and one from the majority population, were chosen for this study. Comparing the levels of total IgE and specific IgE antibodies, IgA and IgG Helicobacter pylori antibodies … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 24 Dec 2014 · 6,665 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAdipokines Overview: The Major Component of Immune DysregulationAnastasia Vladimirovna Poznyak, Daria Dmitryevna Borodko, Stanislav Anatolievich Antonov et al.Purpose of Review: Obesity is increasingly recognized as an immune endocrine disorder rather than only a metabolic condition. This review critically examines how adipokines particularly adiponectin, resistin, adipsin, and chemerin mediate the interplay between obesity and autoimmunity. Unlike previous reviews that broadly surveyed cytokines, our focus is on comparative roles of specific adipokines across multiple autoimmune diseases. Recent Findings: Evidence … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 3 · 11 Aug 2026 · 879 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleBM3D Outperforms Major Benchmarks in Denoising: An Argument in FavorBhawna Goyal, Ayush Dogra, Apoorav Maulik SharmaThe inherent physical limitations of imaging sensors lead to prevalence of additive white Gaussian noise in images which deters the feature extraction and analysis. There exists a number of denoising algorithms in literature, demonstrating their efficacy for removing noise while preserving feature details. At the crossing of functional and statistical analysis, one argues with new methods being devised quite frequently, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 16, Issue 6 · 1 Jul 2020 · 7,577 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleClozapine and its Major Stable Metabolites, N-desmethylclozapine and Clozapine N-oxide do not Affect Human Bone Marrow Stromal Cells in vitroAvril Pereira, Brian DeanTreatment of refractory schizophrenia with the atypical antipsychotic drug clozapine is associated with life-threatening agranulocytosis, characterised by a drop in neutrophil count. Theoretically, toxicity may be accounted for by direct action of parent drug or one of its stable metabolites on bone marrow stroma given importance of these cells to neutrophil maturation. Effects of clozapine, N-desmethylclozapine and clozapine N-oxide on … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2006 · 7,109 accessesView PDFCite
