Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEssential Role of PKCδ in Apoptosis Induction of Mouse ThymocytesC. Lutz-Nicoladoni, T. Letschka, M. Leitges et al.The family of protein kinases C (PKCs) has been implicated in signal transmission leading to apoptosis induction and/or survival. These effects are cell type and tissue dependent. Numerous studies employing phorbol ester, a pleiotropic PKC activator, strongly implicated PKC in apoptosis induction of thymocytes. However, phorbol esters activate both, the conventional PKCs (PKCα, β, γ) as well as the novel … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 7,135 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPredictive Modeling Applied to Structured Clinical Data Extracted from Electronic Health Records: An Architectural Hypothesis and A First ExperimentAlessandra Pieroni, Alessandro Cabroni, Francesca Fallucchi, Noemi ScarpatoPredictive analysis is one of current important issues in the healthcare context. A lot of patients’ input data can be obtained from their Electronic Health Records. In our research, we propose a general architecture named Health Prediction Architecture. Initially, we consider that data refer to strongly structured health datasets (no free text). Our objectives are related to exploring some problems … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 17, Issue 9 · 7 Sep 2021 · 6,571 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExploratory Study on the Fracture Resistance of Cast GlassTelesilla Bristogianni, Faidra Oikonomopoulou, Fred Veer, Rob NijsseThe emerging interest in the architectural applications of cast glass components reveals a knowledge gap on the mechanical properties of cast glass. Apart from its chemical composition, cast glass is characterized by its manufacturing history and thermal profile, often inheriting a set of defects that define its properties. The role that inhomogeneities in the bulk of voluminous glass components have … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 4 Jun 2021 · 7,356 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAsymptomatic COVID-19 Patients: Experience and Lessons from a Developing CountrySylvie Kolani, Houda Alami, El Harch ibtissam et al.The world is facing a pandemic due to the SARS-Coronavirus 2, since late 2019. Many questions remain unanswered regarding the disease course. Key amongst its talking point is the case of asymptomatic patients. This potentially jeopardizes infection control strategy as asymptomatic cases are difficult to identify and hence difficult to isolate. Our study intends to define the clinical and radiological … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 17, Issue 2 · 22 May 2021 · 7,132 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Performance of Supervised Learning Algorithms for Flood Prediction in Kemaman, TerengganuNur Najihah Shaaban, Norlida Hassan, Aida Mustapha, Salama A. MostafaFlood is one of the most destructive phenomena all over the world. Because the flooding uncertainties and the urgency to prepare for disaster management, three specific technique approaches are compared in this study to predict the flood occurrence based on historical rainfall data. The study involved the rainfall data in Kemaman, Terengganu between 2017 and 2018 extracted from the official … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 17, Issue 5 · 7 May 2021 · 6,887 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Association Rule Mining Approach to Pattern Discovery in Breast Cancer DatasetOlufunke Oladipupo, Oluwole Olajide, Stephen Adubi et al.In the literature, several methods explored to analyze breast cancer dataset have failed to sufficiently handle quantitative attribute sharp boundary problem to resolve inter and intra uncertainties in breast cancer dataset analysis. In this study an Interval Type-2 fuzzy association rule mining approach is proposed for pattern discovery in breast cancer dataset. In the first part of this analysis, the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 17, Issue 3 · 6 Apr 2021 · 7,164 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractValidation of a Risk Matrix about the Athlete's Oral Health by Analyzing Behavioral and Nutritional HabitsBárbara Capitanio de Souza, Randhall Bruce Carteri, André Luiz Lopes, Bruno Costa TeixeiraThe study proposal was to build a risk matrix on oral health, by analyzing the behavioral and nutritional habits of these individuals and perform your validation. A literature review was carried out to identify risk factors for the oral diseases. The interviewees were 40 volunteer individuals, athletes, professionals or amateurs, or practitioners of physical activity. The validation process consisted of … …Current Research in Dentistry, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 24 Mar 2021 · 6,576 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExperimental and Numerical Analysis of Continuously Coupling Timber-Lightweight EPS Concrete Composite SystemNikola Perković, Vlatka Rajčić, Jure BarbalićA composite system based on concrete and timber represents a very successful engineering solution in the process of optimization of construction. Nowadays, by combining different timber products and concrete classes it is easy to achieve improved engineering features for elements in different static systems or load cases. This paper presents an overview of the research initiated by solving the problem … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 2 Feb 2021 · 6,433 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTowards a Frame of Reference for Smart City Strategy Development and GovernanceZineb Korachi, Bouchaib BounabatDespite the importance of the smart city concept, few works address how to define and implement smart cities in a clear manner. Furthermore, the smart city literature provides heterogeneous studies and solutions; this heterogeneity creates misunderstanding regarding the smart city definition and strategy. Moreover, stakeholders have multiple and conflicting interests and concerns, which also increase the ambiguity regarding the smart … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 16, Issue 10 · 28 Oct 2020 · 7,209 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStructural Colour from Optical Phenomena Caused by Interference with a Thin or Multilayer Film, Photonic Nanocrystals, Light Scattering and Diffraction Grating EffectRelly Victoria Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Antonio ApicellaThe paper presents the Ion Plating Plasma Assisted technology that is applied in the area of surface functionalization with the purpose of preserving the structural colour and relics. The interferometric structural colours applied on titanium surfaces were used and tested together with nano-transparent and at the same time achromatic films on the very old ceramic artifact.
