Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsResistance to Antibacterial Agents in Escherichia coli Isolated from Domestic Cats and Dogs in the Northern Region of the Republic of KazakhstanAnara Yeleussizova, Yuliya Aleshina, Anara Mendybayeva et al.The widespread use of antimicrobial agents for pets in veterinary practice has led to the emergence and spread of drug resistance not only in pathogenic but also in opportunistic bacteria. The study aims to evaluate the profile of resistance to antibacterial agents in Escherichia coli strains isolated from domestic cats and dogs, as well as to look into the determinants … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 3 · 2 Aug 2023 · 5,525 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsInvestigation of Climatological Components on Runoff Modeling using SWATHamid-Reza Rabiefar, Sayed-Reza Alvankar, Kaveh Ostad-Ali-AskariIt was planned most hydraulic projects, for instance barriers, it was defined the overflow of the rivers. If the river absences any position to measure the yield, the hydraulic models can be utilized to estimate it. SWAT is widely-used computerized mockups. It was required to feed such influential climatological information as precipitation, temperature, wind speed, solar radiation and relative humidity, … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 30 Dec 2020 · 6,114 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAn Extended Semi-Parametric Accelerated Failure Time Cure Model for Partial Cure Information KnownYu Wu, Yong Lin, Shou-En Lu et al.Cure model is a useful model for analyzing failure time data when there is evidence of long-term survivors. In traditional cure models, it is assumed that the cured or uncured status in the censored set cannot be distinguished. However, in many occasions, data of some diagnostic procedures, with some sensitivity and specificity, may have provided partial information about the cured … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 11 Dec 2018 · 7,618 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCombination of Serological Tests (Anti-CCP Antibody, Rheumatoid Factor IgM ELISA and Latex Test) are more Useful in Detection of Rheumatoid ArthritisAnindya Das, Chimanjita Phukan, Chitralekha BaruahRheumatoid arthritis is a polyarticular and chronic inflammatory disease occurring throughout the world. To prevent significant joint damage, early diagnosis and proper treatment is of paramount importance. Though patients are diagnosed clinically supported by radiography and serological tests, early disease may present with non-specific arthritis and absence of specific radiographic findings. Though anti-CCP antibody is used for the diagnosis and … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 23 Sep 2017 · 7,389 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsStudy of Modified Oral Minimal Model using n-Order Decay Rate of Plasma Insulin for the Oral Glucose Tolerance Test in Subjects with Normal, Impaired and Diabetic Glucose ToleranceAgus Kartono, Egha Sabila Putri, Ardian Arif Setiawan et al.In this present study, the modified Oral Minimal Model (OMM), with secretion of insulin from pancreas was assumed that the insulin decay rate was not always a first-orderly process in the Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT), had been developed to study Normal Glucose Tolerance (NGT), Impaired Glucose Tolerance (IGT or pre-diabetes) and type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) subjects. The modified … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 4 · 25 Apr 2017 · 7,976 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPROCALCITONIN AS A MARKER FOR EARLY DIAGNOSIS OF SEPSISRahim Raoofi, Zahra Salmani, Fatemh Moradi et al.Sepsis is a critical condition often caused by bacterial infection and associated with death and mortality. The prognosis of this disease depends on early diagnosis and proper treatment. Definite diagnosis of sepsis is positive blood culture and this test needs a long time to perform, so other biochemical parameters such as procalcitonin serum level has been introduced. To determine sensitivity, … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 23 Dec 2013 · 7,476 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsRole of Progranulin Gene Expression as a Molecular Biomarker for Bladder CancerSalwa M. Abo El-khair, Mie A. Mohamed, Tamer E. AlkhiaryBladder cancer is the second most common cancer of the urinary system. Early diagnosis of this tumor and estimation of risk of future progression has a significant impact on prognosis. Although there are several molecular markers for the diagnosis and prognosis for this tumor, their accuracy is not ideal. Progranulin is a growth factor that may play a critical role … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 22 Jun 2012 · 7,699 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMeasures of Explained Variation and the Base-Rate Problem for Logistic RegressionDinesh Sharma, Dan McGee, B.M. Golam KibriaProblem statement: Logistic regression, perhaps the most frequently used regression model after the General Linear Model (GLM), is extensively used in the field of medical science to analyze prognostic factors in studies of dichotomous outcomes. Unlike the GLM, many different proposals have been made to measure the explained variation in logistic regression analysis. One of the limitations of these measures … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 25 Feb 2012 · 8,576 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsVoltage Collapse Risk Associated to Under-Voltage Capacitive Compensation in Electric Power System OperationHeraldo Silveira Barbuy, Alexandre Rocco, Luiz Augusto Pereira Fernandes, Geraldo Caixeta GuimarãesProblem statement: In the operation of an Electric Power System (EPS), it has been usual to provide reactive power injection to avoid an under-voltage bus condition. In some situations an adequate voltage profile will not be a guarantee against Voltage Collapses (VCs) that may cause blackouts as seen in many occurrences around the world. The repeatedly injection of reactive power … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,253 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsOptical Properties and Kinetic Behavior of Chlorine in Pure Water and Swimming Pool Water using Surface Plasmon Resonance TechniqueW.Y.W. Yusmawati, W. Mahmood Mat YunusAn optical sensor based on surface plasmon resonance phenomenon for detection of chlorine in pure water and swimming pool water is presented. The measurement was carried out at room temperature using Kretschmann surface plasmon resonance technique. When the air medium outside the metal film is changed to chlorine solution, the resonance angle shifted to the higher value. The shift of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,363 accessesView PDFCite
