EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractBig Data and Parkinson’s Disease - from Understanding of Disease to Personalised MedicineYen F. Tai, Nicola PaveseThe advancement of information technology in recent years has generated a huge amount of datasets in all areas of scientific research. This has led to new opportunities to harness the 'Big Data' to improve our understanding of diseases - from investigating disease mechanisms to monitoring treatment responses. The Big Data approach is a data-driven and often hypothesis-free, way of studying … …Neuroscience International, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 27 Jul 2016 · 7,755 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCombination of Statistical Techniques for Submerged Fermentation for Extracellular Polysaccharide and Biomass of Ganoderma tsugaeNukrob Narkprasom, Jia-Hsin Guo, Tzou-Chi Huang, Yuan-Kuang GuuBiomass and extracellular polysaccharide of Ganoderma tsugae have various biological activity including anti-inflamatory activity, antioxidant activity and antitumor activity. However, the growth rate of G. tsugae in nature is very slow. Therefore, many studies have attempted to develop mass culture systems for G. tsugae using laboratory techniques. Many parameters of submerged fermentation for G. tsugae were studies to determine the … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 4 Jul 2014 · 7,609 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBioremediation of Petroleum Hydrocarbon-Polluted Mangrove Swamps Using Nutrient Formula Produced From Water Hyacint (Eicchornia crassipes)Frank Anayo Orji, Abiye Anthony Ibiene, Phillip O. OkerentugbaLaboratory-scale studies were carried out using a nutrient formula produced from Eicchornia crassipes plant to achieve bioremediation of crude oil impacted mangrove soil. In a 70 day study, the culturable heterotrophic bacterial population of the Eichhornia crassipes recipe increased from 6.26×105 Cfu/g to 2.69×107 Cfu/g. The control set-up had its total culturable bacterial count increased from 5.76×105 Cfu/g to 1.24×106 … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 28 Aug 2013 · 7,643 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparison of Isoflurane and Sevoflurane Anesthesia in Holstein Calves for Placement of Portal and Jugular Vein CannulasGlen Sellers, Hui-Chu Lin, Manuel Felipe Chamorro, Paul Harold WalzIsoflurane and sevoflurane are the two most commonly used inhalation anesthetics in veterinary medicine today. This study compared the anesthetic effects between isoflurane and sevoflurane in 17 calves undergoing surgery for placement of portal and jugular vein cannulas. Using a randomized control trial, calves were assigned to receive sevoflurane or isoflurane. Anesthesia was induced with xylazine and ketamine then maintained … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 2 Jan 2013 · 7,903 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBayesian Exploration of Multilocus Interactions on the Genome-Wide ScaleIvan Kozyryev, Jing ZhangProblem statement: Recent technological and scientific advances propelled the field of Genome-Wide Association Study (GWAS), which promises to be instrumental in linking many common complex diseases to their genetic origin. While so far such large-scale surveys have been moderately successful in identifying disease related genetic variants, much of disease heritability is still not accounted for by the discovered loci. There … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 2 Jul 2012 · 7,401 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudy of Ambient and Indoor Air Quality in the Building Built on the Former LandfillAnuar Ithnin, Nazipah Zakaria, Nor Azura Sulong et al.Problem statement: The air quality study of PPR Taman Wahyu II, Selayang, Selangor was a residential project that was built on the former landfill site. The landfill site will produce landfill gases which can influence the air quality level in and outside the building. Approach: This air quality study also involving PPR Intan Baiduri, Batu Caves, Selangor as a control … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 8 · 21 Jun 2012 · 6,989 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffectiveness of Agricultural Extension ActivitiesAli AL-Sharafat, Mohammad Altarawneh, Ebraheem AltahatProblem statement: Jordan’s agricultural extension service is seriously under-staffed and its effectiveness is consequently compromised. Reservations are being expressed about the performance and capability of the agricultural extension system in Jordan. The performance of this sector has been disappointing and has failed to transfer agricultural technology to the farmers. The main objective of this study is to assess the effectiveness … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 5 Apr 2012 · 9,470 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBayesian Determination of Disease Associated Differences in Haplotype BlocksIvan Kozyryev, Jing ZhangProblem statement: While experimental ascertainment of haplotype blocks in the genome-scale case-control studies is expensive, accurate computational phasing is still a daunting task for bioinformatics approaches. We used a statistical method to determine differences, potentially associated with a certain disease, in linkage disequilibrium block boundaries in whole-genome Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) data. Approach: We utilized a Bayesian model for calculating … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 14 Feb 2012 · 8,423 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRestructuring and Expanding Technology Acceptance Model Structural Equation Model and Bayesian ApproachMargaretha Ari Aggorowati, Nur Iriawan, Suhartono, Hasyim GautamaProblem statement: Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) is one of models that analyze user behavior to accept and use a new technology. SEM is the most statistical method which use in TAM analysis that provides the estimation strength of all hypothesized relationship between variables in a theoretical model. Consider to employing the standard SEM in TAM analysis which expected large data, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 10 Feb 2012 · 8,359 accessesView PDFCite
