EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractEditorial Commentary: Challenge of Non–AIDS-Defining Cancers (NADCs), Focusing on Trans Activation Response Element (TAR) RNA Embedding ExosomesLechuang Chen, Ge JinGlobally, 37.9 million people were living with HIV at the end of 2018 (Organization, 2018). Cancer is a major cause of mortality and morbidity in AIDS patients and chronically HIV-infected people. With the aid of combination Antiretroviral Therapy (ART), people living with HIV (PLWH) have a longer life span. However, because the virus is not completely eradicated, PLWH under antiretroviral … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 28 Nov 2019 · 6,657 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProgressive LDL Reduction to Very Low Levels Improves Dimeric Nitric Oxide Synthase, Nitric Oxide Bioavailability and Reduces Peroxynitrite in Endothelial Cells during HyperglycemiaR. Preston Mason, Hazem Dawoud, Samuel C.R. Sherratt et al.Circulating levels of glucose and LDL influence Endothelial Cell (EC) function in a highly interactive manner as evidenced by nitric oxide production and coupling of endothelial Nitric Oxide Synthase (eNOS) dimer. Here, we report on the status of eNOS function in Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells (HUVECs) cultured under normo- and hyperglycemic (250 mg/dL) condition followed by exposure to increasing … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 2 May 2019 · 8,356 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimizing Software Effort Estimation Models Using Back-Propagation Versus Radial Base Function NetworksAbdel Karim BaarehSoftware development effort estimation becomes a very important and vital tool for many researchers in different fields. Software estimation used in controlling, organizing and achieving projects in the required time and cost to avoid the financial punishments due to the time delay and other different circumstances that may happen. Good project cost estimation will lead to project success and reduce … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 15, Issue 3 · 11 Mar 2019 · 7,464 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImmune Metabolism in Functional Aspects of the BrainElisa Gonzalez Cuevas, Nitya G. ChakrabortyThe brain interacts with the immune system in a highly regulated and restricted manner. Immune signals initiate pro- and anti-inflammatory activity in most body tissues in response to disease states and injury. An accumulation of inflammatory insults can disrupt immune metabolic homeostasis and give rise to pathology in sensitive areas. Here, we provide an overview of interactions between immune metabolism … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 18 Dec 2019 · 7,219 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractElectrical Load Forecasting Using Artificial Neural Network: The Case Study of the Grid Inter-Connected Network of Benin Electricity Community (CEB)Adekunlé Akim Salami, Ayité Sénah Akoda Ajavon, Koffi A. Dotche, Koffi-Sa BedjaThe low rate of electrification seems challenging in many West African countries and many strategies are underway to improve upon. In this regard, the target of achieving the universal access and services calls for a stable and reliable electrical network. Forecasting of electrical load on a connected grid network is very delicate and requires tremendous task from the utilities (billing … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 11 Apr 2018 · 9,143 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRisks Ratios of Shrinkage Estimators for the Multivariate Normal MeanAbdenour Hamdaoui, Nadia MezouarWe study the estimation of the mean θ of a multivariate Gaussian random variable X∼Np(θ,σ2Ip) in ℜp, σ2 is unknown and estimated by the chi-square variable S2∼σ2χn2. In this work we are interested in studying bounds and limits of risk ratios of shrinkage estimators to the maximum likelihood estimator X, when n and p tend to infinity. We recall that … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 3 Apr 2017 · 7,108 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRisk Instrument for Screening in the Community (RISC): Cross Cultural PerspectivesPatricia Leahy-Warren, Elizabeth Weathers, Marina Lupari et al.Older people are at an increased risk of developing multiple co-morbidities causing subsequent cognitive, functional decline and frailty and increasing the risk of adverse healthcare outcomes. Public Health Nurses (PHNs), geriatricians and researchers developed the Risk Instrument for Screening in the Community (RISC) to record the presence of problems, severity (mild, moderate, severe) of concerns and caregiver networks' ability to … …International Journal of Research in Nursing, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 9 Nov 2015 · 7,441 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Review of Flood Risk Analysis in NigeriaAkinola Adesuji Komolafe, Suleiman Abdul-Azeez Adegboyega, Francis Omowonuola AkinluyiNigeria has witnessed diverse flood events in the past years and due to the high level of vulnerability and lack of coping capacity of the people, with the fast occurrence of extreme events resulting from climate change, many lives and properties are at risk of its impacts. This paper reviews the recent past and present efforts in assessing the flood … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 12 Sep 2015 · 10,800 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractASYMPTOTIC BEHAVIOR OF FINITE-TIME RUIN PROBABILITY IN A BY-CLAIM RISK MODEL WITH CONSTANT INTEREST RATELei WangThis study investigates the ruin probability of a renewal risk model with constant interest rate and by-claim parts. We assume that the claim size and the inter-arrival time satisfy a certain dependent structure with some additional assumptions on their distribution functions. In particular, we study the asymptotic behavior of P(R*δ´ (t, x) >x), which holds uniformly in a finite interval. … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 5 Aug 2014 · 6,985 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTHE MANAGEMENT OF UNCERTAINTY: MODEL FOR EVALUATION OF HUMAN ERROR PROBABILITY IN RAILWAY SYSTEMLombardi Mara, Guarascio Massimo, Rossi GiulianoThe methodology of quantitative risk assessment in use in the railway industry refers the RAMS approach, as expected in EN 50126, to define the failure of the system. From the probability of failure follows the evaluation of the failure consequence, the check of the accident occurrence and finally, the analysis of the achievable accident scenarios to quantify the damage as … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 30 Dec 2013 · 7,390 accessesView PDFCite
