Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHepatitis B and C Positivity in Various Categories of Human Immunodeficiency Virus Seropositive Individuals in a Regional STD Centre-an Eight-Year Evaluation of Trends and Risk FactorsSumathi Muralidhar, Manju Bala, Rakesh Kumar Jain et al.Problem statement: Among the various infections whose incidence has increased since the advent of HIV/AIDS, Hepatitis B and C stand out clearly. This is so because the routes of transmission of these infections are essentially the same as those of HIV/AIDS, making co-infections a common occurrence. The risk of infection for Hepatitis B and C is several times more than … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Oct 2010 · 6,925 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSusceptibility of Candida Species Isolated From HIV Infected and Newborn Candidaemia Patients to Amphotericin BSaikat Basu, Debasrita Chakraborty, Satadal DasProblem statement: HIV infected and neonatal candidaemia is a serious condition where proper selection of the antifungal agent is the key factor in the prognosis of the disease. Thus in this study susceptibility of Candida species to Amphotericin B was explored in such patients. Approach: Forty different Candida isolates obtained from blood culture of such candidaemia cases were tested for … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,466 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTotal Level of Serum Homocysteine in Males and Females with Coronary Heart Disease of Different Age GroupsFaisal I. Mohammad, Sally Awawdeh, Akram Saleh, Nabil A. BashirProblem statement: Elevated plasma total homocysteine concentration is a risk factor of cardiovascular disease. Total homocysteine level is a strong predictor of mortality in-patient with an angiographically confirmed Coronary Heart Disease (CHD), so we want to know at what age in males and females elevated homocysteine will be significantly elevated and this will help for better management and prognosis by … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,540 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigations in the molecular events of Transitional Cell Carcinoma of the BladderH.S. Kadhim, A.S. Abdulamir, R.R. Hafidh et al.Problem Statement: Transitional Cell Carcinoma (TCC) of the bladder is a significant health problem worldwide. The molecular mechanisms of tumor development and progression are complicated but likely involve the interaction of tumor suppressor genes, oncogenes, cell cycle regulatory proteins and other factors. Hence this study tries to explore the role of p53, bcl-2, c-myc and Ki-67 in TCC of the … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,528 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractECG Signal Denoising By Wavelet Transform ThresholdingMikhled Alfaouri, Khaled DaqrouqIn recent years, ECG signal plays an important role in the primary diagnosis, prognosis and survival analysis of heart diseases. In this paper a new approach based on the threshold value of ECG signal determination is proposed using Wavelet Transform coefficients. Electrocardiography has had a profound influence on the practice of medicine. The electrocardiogram signal contains an important amount of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2008 · 16,507 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment of a Wear Map for the Sliding and Rotational Wear behavior of ShaftsAl-mahasne Mayas MohammadThis study was an attempt to study the wear calculation method for rotating shaft in the friction couple type shaft-cuff in conditions of oiling in high dusty environment. The size and quantity of abrasive particles that go into the clearance between friction surfaces, definition of the pressure including the load in conjugate that is given by the cuff spring as … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,913 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntroduction of Three Complementary Technologies into Clinical Medicine: Development of New Diagnostic and Prognostic ParametersGernot P. Tilz, Marco Wiltgen, Ulrike Demel et al.Molecular medicine leads us to understand some diseases at the molecular level. Examples are the analysis of immune complexes and receptor - anti receptor compounds used in clinical medicine. Structural changes of some serum proteins occur in inflammation, neoplasie and autoimmunity. The detection and analysis of such structural modifications may offer a new field for the diagnosis, prognosis and therapy … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2006 · 6,956 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRole of Cytokines in the Regulation of Glioma Tumour Growth and AngiogenesisChristina Piperi, Athanasios Zisakis, Robert W. Lea, Anastasios KalofoutisMalignant glioblastomas are the most common type of primary brain tumors accounting for more than 50% of all intracranial gliomas. Due to their aggressive nature, recurrent growth, and their extremely poor prognosis for survival, research approaches have made little progress in advancing treatment of these tumours which have the ability of both modulating host immune function and neutralizing immune-based therapies. … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,868 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGranulomatous Amoebic Encephalitis: Clinical Diagnosis and ManagementNaveed Ahmed KhanGranulomatous amoebic encephalitis (GAE) is a serious human disease with fatal consequences. With the mortality rate of more than 90%, it is not surprising that the majority of GAE infections are identified at the post-mortem stage. The most distressing aspect is that the high level of mortality is attributed to lack of awareness. Early diagnosis with aggressive treatment can lead … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 7,187 accessesView PDFCite
