Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Analysis of Wavelet, Curvelet, and Contourlet Transforms for Denoising Liver CT ImagesMajzoob Kamalaldin Omer AbdalrahmanLiver cancer is one of the leading causes of mortality worldwide, and early detection using CT imaging plays a critical role in patient survival. However, the quality of CT scans is often degraded by noise, particularly in low-dose imaging intended to minimize radiation exposure. This study presents a comprehensive comparison of three multiresolution transform techniques, namely the wavelet, curvelet, and … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 4 Feb 2026 · 2,124 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetection of Pulmonary Nodules in ct Images Using Deep Learning TechniqueSanthi Balachandran, Divya, Nithya Rajendran, Brindha GiriLung Cancer is one of the most deadly diseases worldwide. According to the American Cancer Society, about 234,030 peoples have been suffering from lung cancer. It can be cured if it is diagnosed earlier which decreases the death rate. A computational diagnostic tool named Computer Aided Diagnosis (CAD) is used to detect pulmonary nodules. Extensive work has been made in … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 16, Issue 4 · 15 Apr 2020 · 7,818 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Effective and Viable DNA Extraction Protocol for FFPE Tissues and its Effect on Downstream Molecular ApplicationSai Sushmitha Kontham, Charles Emmanuel Jebaraj Walter, Manjula Raju et al.Archival Formalin-Fixed Paraffin-Embedded (FFPE) tissues are a readily available source of DNA for retrospective studies including genetic predisposition. FFPE tissues present significant challenges for extraction of pure genomic DNA in adequate amounts due to the harsh fixation conditions and long-term storage associated with samples. The aim of the study is to propose a simple, in-expensive, viable protocol for the extraction … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 24 Mar 2020 · 7,379 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSeroprevalence and Co-Infection of Human Papillomavirus (HPV) Genotypes Among HIV PositivesOkoro Nworie, Euslar Onu, Ogbonnaya Ogbu et al.Human Papillomavirus (HPV) infection is now considered a sexually transmitted disease with particular types being highly oncogenic in nature. High-risk HPV virus infection is a cause of nearly all cases of cervical cancer amongst women. This study determined the seroprevalence of HPV type-16 and type-18 among HIV positive. Blood samples were processed using ELISA test kit and PCR technique. ELISA … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 9 Mar 2020 · 7,098 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMultipatch-GLCM for Texture Feature Extraction on Classification of the Colon Histopathology Images using Deep Neural Network with GPU AccelerationToto Haryanto, Adib Pratama, Heru Suhartanto et al.Cancer is one of the leading causes of death in the world. It is the main reason why research in this field becomes challenging. Not only for the pathologist but also from the view of a computer scientist. Hematoxylin and Eosin (H&E) images are the most common modalities used by the pathologist for cancer detection. The status of cancer with … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 16, Issue 3 · 5 Mar 2020 · 9,223 accessesView PDFCite
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 · 6,662 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRadiological Risks Assessment of Ogun State Drinking WaterJustina Ada Achuka, Usikalu Mojisola Rachael, Oyeyemi Kehinde DavidThe presence of radionuclides in water constitute health risk to man. The consumption of such water increases the likelihood of incurring cancer. Analysis will enhance the detection of significant radionuclides causing harm to the populace and stimulate remediation. This inferred the radioactivity measurements of twenty (20) well water samples from three industrial cities of Ogun State using Hyper Pure Germanium … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 5 · 18 May 2017 · 7,790 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRecent Advances in Point of Care Diagnostic Tools: A ReviewLaura Wessels, Haider RaadGlobally, there is a great need for portable, inexpensive diagnostic tools that can provide quick, accurate results using relatively small sample volumes. Point-Of-Care (POC) measurements of human saliva, sweat and/or blood capable of detecting glucose levels, foreign pathogens such as bacteria, fungi and many different viruses (HIV, Ebola, Influenza, etc.) that use microfluidics and optofluidics are close to commercial availability. … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 28 Nov 2016 · 8,244 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTen Bioinformatics Tools for Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms DetectionMahin Ghorbani, Hamed KarimiSingle Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) as unique genetic variations are widely used as biomarkers for drug designing and development for individualized therapy. SNP genotyping techniques such as SBE with MS detection, SBE with fluorescence intensity detection, The FP-TDI, Pyrosequencing and The TaqMan 5’ nuclease assay are low-speed, time consuming and very expensive. To overcome such disadvantages, bioinformatics tools are emerged as … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 10 Apr 2015 · 17,735 accessesView PDFCite
