Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCPI-1189 Protects against TNBS-induced Colitis in a Rodent ModelBeverley Greenwood-Van Meerveld, Karl TylerNitrone-related therapeutics (NRTs) represents a new class of molecules that may be effective in treating inflammatory conditions. The goal of this study was to examine the effect of CPI-1189 in a rat model of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Colonic inflammation was induced by an enema of trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS). Saline-enema treated rats served as controls. After 3 days colonic … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,168 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Pathology of Alzheimer Disease Elicits an In Vivo Immunological ResponseDavid J. Bonda, Kate M. Webber, Sandra L. Siedlak et al.The mechanism(s) responsible for the loss of neurons that characterizes Alzheimer disease is incompletely understood. Nonetheless, there is considerable evidence suggestive of immune abnormalities coupled to alterations in blood-brain barrier permeability that likely play a key role in both the etiology and progression of the disease. To examine these issues further, this study was designed to examine the presence of … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,115 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBeta-2-Microglobulin in Autism Spectrum DisordersPaula Goines, Joseph Schauer, Luke Heuer et al.Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are heterogeneous neurodevelopmental diseases of unknown etiology. There are no biological markers for ASD and current diagnosis is based on behavioral criteria. Recent data has shown that MHC I, a compound involved in adaptive immune function, is also involved in neurodevelopment, synaptic plasticity and behavior. It has been suggested that altered MHC I expression could play … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,560 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign and Development of a Photovoltaic Power System for Tropical Greenhouse CoolingFaisal Mohammed Seif Al-Shamiry, Desa Ahmad, Abdul Rashid Mohamed Sharif et al.Renewable energy sources like photovoltaic (PV) panels are used today in many applications. Natural ventilation in tropical greenhouse is common method for ventilation, which gives higher inside temperatures compared to the outside temperatures. In addition, this type of ventilation is not enough to reduce high temperature inside the structure in low land areas. Thus the requirement of cooling is increased. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2007 · 8,213 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIncome Distribution and Health Status: Econometric Evidence from OECD CountriesVasudeva N.R. MurthyThis research note, using a cross-sectional sample consisting of 27 Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development countries (OECD) for the reference year 2002, empirically examines the relationship between health status as measured by infant mortality and the degree of income inequality, given the effect of certain controlled variables. The empirical findings based on the estimation by robust econometric methods, show … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2007 · 7,251 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Case Study of Black-Box Testing for Embedded Software using Test Automation ToolChanghyun Baek, Joongsoon Jang, Gihyun Jung et al.This research shows a case study of the Black-Box testing for Temperature Controller (TC) which is one of the typical embedded systems. A test automation tool, TEST, was developed and some kinds of TCs were tested using the tool. We presented statistical analysis for the test results of the automated testing and defined the properties of the software bugs for … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2007 · 8,591 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudies on Some Properties of Quality and Performance in Wood WindowsTuncer Dilik, Barış AltunThe determination of some quality and performance properties of windows, made of tree species used frequently in industrial window manufacturing and the effects of tree species on those properties have been examined. According to the results of the study by considering regular standards, in the air resistance tests, the classification has been determined as follows: those made of Scots pine … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,859 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of Zinc and "Health Belief Model" Based Education on Common Cold Prevention in SoldiersArash Pooya, Ahmad Mahmoudian, Mohamad Mahdi Hazavei et al.The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of "Zinc" and "Health Belief model" based education on viral upper respiratory tract infections in soldiers in Isfahan - 2004 - 2005. It was a double - blinded randomized controlled trial, which was done among a group of soldiers by census. Soldiers were randomly divided into four groups.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Serological Gastric Biopsy: A Non-endoscopical/Histopathologic Diagnostic Approach in Management of the Dyspeptic PatientsR. A.K. Mahmoud, H. H. Morcos, A. A. Hegazi et al.Objective: To asses the sensitivity, specificity and the predictive value of a 'gastropanel' blood test, including serum pepsinogen I (S-PGI) and amidated gastrin-17 (S-G-17) in the diagnosis of atrophic gastritis most probably due to helicobacter pylori (Hp) and to compare the results of serology with the endoscopic/histopathologic findings as a gold standard diagnostic tool. This study comprised 86 dyspeptic outpatients … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 7,131 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiochemical Effects of Recombinant Porcine Somatotropin on Pig Fetal Growth and Metabolism: A ReviewD. Villanueva-García, S. A. Olmos-Hernández, D. Mota-Rojas et al.Prenatal development is mainly dependent on a close interrelation between nutritional supply use and regulation by hormones and growth factors. Mechanisms during early embryonic development are sensitive to manipulation through selected management strategies of the sow and modifications of this strategy may serve as a model for the examination of molecular and cellular events controlling early embryonic growth. The administration … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,620 accessesView PDFCite
