Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDynamic Models of Rigid Memory MechanismsFlorian Ion Tiberiu PetrescuRigid memory mechanisms have played an important role in the history of mankind, contributing greatly to the industrial, economic, social changes in society, thus leading to a real evolution of mankind. Used in automated tissue wars, in cars as distribution mechanisms, automated machines, mechanical transmissions, robots and mechatronics, precision devices and medical devices, these mechanisms have been real support for … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 22 Nov 2018 · 7,257 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 · 8,234 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractProtecting crop species from biotic and abiotic constraints in the era of Global Change: are we ready for this challenge?Marco Landi, Giovanni BenelliReliable and affordable supply of food is of crucial importance to the progress and stability of human societies. During the last century, we have assisted to an extraordinary increase of crop yields, especially for the most widespread and consumed crop species, such as rice, wheat, corn and soybean. The Broadbalk experiment, one of the oldest continuous agronomic experiments in the … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 4 Jun 2016 · 8,399 accessesView PDFCite
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 abstractWavelet Transform Based Automatic Lesion Detection in Cervix Images Using Active ContourP. S. Rama Praba, H. RanganathanColposcopy is a medical diagnostic procedure to examine an illuminated, magnified view of the cervix by a colposcope. Most cases of cervical cancer can be prevented through screening programs aimed at detecting precancerous lesions. Colposcopy cervical images are acquired in raw form which contains major cervix lesions, regions outside the cervix and parts of the imaging devices such as speculum. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2013 · 7,783 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractField Programmable Gate Arrays Based Realization of Truncated MultipliersMuhammad H. Rais, Mohammed H. Al MijalliProblem statement: Due to high cost and non reconfiguration of Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs) in image processing applications, for example MPEG video compression used in CT scan frames requires real time conditions and the algorithms should be verified and optimized before implementation. Approach: Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) provides reconfiguration and implementation at the same time. Results: The implementation … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 7 · 24 Jun 2011 · 6,694 accessesView PDFCite
