Literature ReviewOpen accessEvery word in the titleImproving Organizational Citizenship Behavior through Spirituality and Work EngagementAminah Ahmad, Zoharah OmarThe focus of previous studies on predictors of organizational citizenship behavior has been on individual, organizational and task characteristics as well as leadership behaviors. Despite the greater focus of previous studies on individual characteristics, little is known about the potential effect of spirituality on organizational citizenship behavior. Using the work engagement model and results from previous empirical studies, a framework … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 7 May 2015 · 7,139 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleADDITIVE AND MULTIPLICATIVE NOISE REMOVAL BASED ON ADAPTIVE WAVELET TRANSFORMATION USING CYCLE SPINNINGAsem Khmag, Abd Rahman Ramli, Syed Abdul Rahman Al-Haddad, Shaiful Jahari Bin HashimThe need for image restoration is encountered in many practical applications. For instance, distortion due to Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) or in some cases the multiplicative (speckle) one can be caused by poor quality image acquisition. Wavelet denoising attempts to remove these types of noise present in the signal while preserving the signal characteristics, regardless of its frequency content. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 27 Dec 2013 · 7,625 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleImmune-Based Therapies for Spinal Cord InjuryBasem I. Awad, Davina V. Gutierrez, Michael P. SteinmetzTraumatic Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) results in both focal and diffuse spinal cord pathologies that are exacerbated by an inflammatory response after the initial injury. Resident and infiltrating immune cells contribute significantly to the growth-refractory environment near the lesion and can intensify damage to spared tissue, resulting in impaired spontaneous functional recovery. Numerous studies have demonstrated that several immunomodulatory therapies … …Neuroscience International, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 17 Apr 2013 · 6,877 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSpinal Cord Injury: Current Mammalian ModelsSarina Kundi, Roy Bicknell, Zubair AhmedIt is estimated that approximately 2.5 million people are affected by Spinal Cord Injury (SCI), with more than 130,000 new cases reported each year (International Campaign for Cures of Spinal Cord Injury Paralysis). Although there is currently no cure for SCI, various strategies including rehabilitative, cellular and molecular therapies have been tested in a variety of animal models. But questions … …Neuroscience International, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 27 Mar 2013 · 14,041 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffects of Body Weight-Support Treadmill Training in Incomplete Spinal Cord Injury: A Critical ReviewRenata Teles Vieira, Rafaela Machado de Gusmao Oliveira, Camila Alves Nogueira Barros et al.Problem statement: The present study reviewed the efficacy of body-weight support treadmill training in patients with incomplete spinal cord injury. Approach: We developed a computer-supported search strategy for finding studies in the main data bases: Pubmed/Medline, ISI Web of Knowledge and Scielo. We also developed a manual search withing all electronically references found. The search terms gait, locomotor training, spinal … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 23 Aug 2012 · 7,729 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleElectron Spin Resonance Study of Tertiary Sediments in Mae Moh Basin, Lampang ProvinceTidarut Vichaidid, Supanee Limsuwan, Pichet LimsuwanElectron Spin Resonance (ESR) studies have been carried out on Tertiary sediment collected from Mae Moh basin, well known for its lignite mining in Lampang province of the northern Thailand, a stratigraphic bedding plane in the sediment that formed in geological time of about 13 million years ago. Each individual sedimentary bed has its own unique assemblage and occurs in … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 9 · 14 Jul 2012 · 7,172 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDynamic Approach to Defend Against Distributed Denial of Service Attacks Using an Adaptive Spin Lock Rate Control MechanismR. Anurekha, K. Duraiswamy, A. Viswanathan et al.Problem statement: The last decade has seen many prominent Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks on high profile webservers. In this study, we deal with DDoS attacks by proposing a dynamic reactive defense system using an adaptive Spin Lock Rate control (D3SLR). D3SLR identifies malicious traffic flow towards a target system based on the volume of traffic flowing towards the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 5 · 17 Feb 2012 · 7,062 accessesView PDFCite
