Review ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesSpermatogonial Stem Cells: A Current Update in the Management of Azoospermic Infertile MenSilvia W Lestari, Debby AdityaOne of the management of azoospermia is utilizing Assisted Reproductive Technologies (ART) by Intra-Cytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) with sperm obtained from the epididymis or directly from testis. In some conditions such as hypogonadism or undescended testis, the sperm are not successfully obtained. Thus, it is considered to perform Spermatogonial Stem Cells (SSCs) culture to restore men fertility. The objective of … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 4 · 5 Dec 2017 · 6,923 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesSperm DNA Fragmentation and Apoptosis Levels: A Comparison of the Swim up and the Density Gradient Centrifugation Methods for Sperm PreparationSilvia W. Lestari, Triyana Sari, Dwi A. PujiantoThis study investigated the efficiency of two sperm preparation methods, namely, density gradient centrifugation and the swim-up method, in selecting spermatozoa based on the DNA fragmentation index and the apoptosis levels. Fifteen semen samples from infertile couples underwent sperm preparation in this study. The Makler® counting chamber and Eosin Y staining were used to analyse the sperm concentration, motility and … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 4 · 14 Nov 2016 · 7,419 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesFuzzy Modeling for Multi-Label Text Classification Supported by Classification AlgorithmsBeatriz Wilges, Gustavo Mateus, Silvia Nassar et al.The ever-increasing amount of information on the Web is organized in structured, semi-structured and unstructured data. Text classification systems, capable of handling such different structures, may facilitate the work of important tasks such as indexation and information retrieval in search engines. The objective of this research is to develop a method for the classification of documents into multiple categories with … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 12, Issue 7 · 22 Aug 2016 · 7,215 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesDevelopment of a Short-Term Canine Full-Thickness Skin Organ Culture Method under Serum-Free ConditionsFrancesca Abramo, Andrea Pirone, Carla Lenzi et al.Full-thickness canine skin organ culture models could provide an entirely new opportunity for studying wound healing, keratinization disorders and allergic skin diseases, all of which have high prevalence and severe impact on canine quality of life. Here we present a canine organ culture method for the short-term maintenance of full-thickness, adult, canine skin in serum-free medium and investigate the possibility … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 13 Jun 2016 · 7,380 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesAutomatic Methods for Generation of Type-1 and Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Membership FunctionsAndréia Alves dos Santos Schwaab, Silvia Modesto Nassar, Paulo José de Freitas FilhoGeneration of membership functions is an important step in construction of fuzzy systems. Since membership functions reflect what is known about the variables involved in a problem, when they are correctly modeled the system will behave in the manner that is expected in the context of the problem being addressed. Since their creation, type-1 membership functions have been used in … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 11, Issue 9 · 20 Dec 2015 · 7,289 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesContrastive Analysis of Stretched Collocations with Get and Take: Their use and Pedagogical ImplicationsSilvia Molina PlazaThis paper explores the pedagogical implications of contrastive analyses of light verb constructions containing get and take in English and Spanish based on electronic corpora, the British National Corpus (BNC) and the Corpus de Referencia del Español Actual (CREA). The main tenets of collocations from a contrastive perspective-and the points of contact and departure between both languages-are discussed prior to … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 23 Jul 2015 · 8,092 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesAntimicrobial Resistance in Bacterial Pathogens of Canine OtitisRicardo Antonio Pilegi Sfaciotte, Jéssica Taina Bordin, Vanessa Kelly Capoia Vignoto et al.Otitis is one of the most frequent infections in dogs. This is attributed to the misuse of drugs enabling generation of multi-resistant micro-organisms. The emergence of multiresistant bacterial strains in veterinary medicine is a reality that must be studied and evaluated by the professionals. The objective of this study was to isolate and evaluate the antimicrobial susceptibility of bacterial pathogens … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 3 Jul 2015 · 7,408 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesHEURISTIC DISCRETIZATION METHOD FOR BAYESIAN NETWORKSMariana D.C. Lima, Silvia M. Nassar, Pedro Ivo R.B.G. Rodrigues et al.Bayesian Network (BN) is a classification technique widely used in Artificial Intelligence. Its structure is a Direct Acyclic Graph (DAG) used to model the association of categorical variables. However, in cases where the variables are numerical, a previous discretization is necessary. Discretization methods are usually based on a statistical approach using the data distribution, such as division by quartiles. In … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 5 · 18 Jan 2014 · 7,054 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesANALYSIS OF BAYESIAN CLASSIFIER ACCURACYFelipe Schneider Costa, Maria Marlene De Souza Pires, Silvia Modesto NassarThe naïve Bayes classifier is considered one of the most effective classification algorithms today, competing with more modern and sophisticated classifiers. Despite being based on unrealistic (naïve) assumption that all variables are independent, given the output class, the classifier provides proper results. However, depending on the scenario utilized (network structure, number of samples or training cases, number of variables), the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 11 · 26 Sep 2013 · 8,375 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesMetals in Sediment Cores from Nine Coastal Lagoons in Central VietnamStefania Romano, Cristian Mugnai, Silvia Giuliani et al.Problem statement: After being dramatically hit by war events, Vietnam is presently experiencing a huge economical and social development. However, very few data, relative to pollution levels and trends, are available for the correct management of critical areas such as coastal lagoons, where many economical activities are linked to high value environmental features. Approach: A set of sediment cores from … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 9 Mar 2012 · 8,587 accessesView PDFCite
