Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFactors Associated with Mortality Among Patients with Central Venous Catheter-Related Bloodstream Infection in an Intensive Care UnitPriscilla Roberta Silva Rocha, Marcelo de Oliveira Maia, Gisele Brocco Magnan et al.Central venous catheterization is a common practice in the management of critically ill patients and is associated with various complications, such as Bloodstream Infections (BSI), which are major determinants of increased morbidity, mortality and healthcare expenses. Few studies have addressed factors that predict mortality in patients with this complication. The aim of this study was to investigate factors associated with … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 13 Feb 2013 · 7,618 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImproving Diagnostic Viewing of Medical Images using Enhancement AlgorithmsHanan Saleh S. Ahmed, Md Jan NordinProblem statement: Various images are low quality and difficultly to detect and extract information. Therefore, the image has to get under a process called image enhancement which contains an aggregation of techniques that look for improving the visual aspect of an image. Medical images are one of the fundamental images, because they are used in more sensitive field which is … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 12 · 18 Oct 2011 · 7,991 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Adhesive on Coupling Efficiency of Planar Light Waveguide PackagingYang Bo, Duan Ji-anProblem statement: Advanced optoelectronic devices are a kind of key and basic components for next generation communication, untouched sensor, medical testing. They have lots of advantages including greater communication performance, larger capacity, and more fixable form. But light coupling and package structure seriously affects performance of optoelectronic devices. So a lot of attaching methods were proposed to package optoelectronic devices. … …Current Research in Nanotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 21 Jun 2011 · 7,140 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Optical Nonlinearity of Au and Ag Nanoparticle Prepared by the γ-Radiation MethodEsmaeil Shahriari, W. M.M. Yunus, Kazem Naghavi, Elias SaionProblem statement: The third order nonlinear optical properties of metal nanoparticles have been of interest in physical chemistry, medical diagnostics and optical devices. Gold colloidal nanoparticles are responsible for the brilliant reds seen in stained glass windows and silver particles are typically yellow. The purpose of the study was to determine the nonlinear refraction and absorption coefficient of the Au … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 9,541 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSynthesis and Characterization of Silver/Clay/Chitosan Bionanocomposites by UV-Irradiation MethodMansor Bin Ahmad, Kamyar Shameli, Majid Darroudi et al.Problem statement: Silver/Montmorillonite/Chitosan Bionanocomposites (Ag/MMT/Cts BNCs) have been synthesized by UV-irradiation reduction method in the absence of any reducing agent or heat treatment which is used to antibacterial application and medical devices. Approach: MMT, Chitosan and AgNO3 were used as a solid support, stabilizer and silver precursor, respectively. The properties of Ag/MMT/Cts BNCs were studied as a function of UV-irradiation … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2009 · 8,815 accessesView PDFCite
