Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBorderline Personality Symptoms and Human Immunodeficiency Virus Risk in Alcohol and Other Drug Abusing Adolescent OffendersJessy G. Dévieux, Robert M. Malow, Rhonda Rosenberg et al.Problem statement: Incarcerated youth with borderline symptomatology represent a particularly at risk-population due to their enggement in risky behaviors. Five hundred twenty two adolescents were assessed for borderline symptomatology (MACI), engagement in risky behaviors and attitudes/knowledge. Approach:Adolescents were divided into two groups: low borderline (below the 60 scale score cutoff) and high borderline (subclinical and clinical range). Multivariate analyses were … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,814 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCancer Chemotherapy and Immune RegulationJohn Barrett, Katarina Le BlancProblem statement: Chemotherapeutic drugs have been used to treat malignancy for over 50 years, but the potential of cytotoxic agents to suppress immunity and interfere with Immunosurveillance (IS) of cancer has been largely ignored. Assuming that the immune control of the cancer had a priori already failed, the effect was not considered to have a major impact on treatment outcome. … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 40,663 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVegetation Dynamics Depending on Ecological Particularities of Bozanta Mare (Maramures County-Romania) Tailing Pound: Case StudyMonica Marian, Leonard Mihaly Cozmuta, Camelia Varga et al.The present study followed an ecological demarche of reintegration in the scenary through revegetation of an anthropic ground, consisting in a waste pond formed from the flotation activity of non-ferrous ores. Problem statement: To support the formation of a compact vegetal layer, having anti-erosion and a restoration role, a preliminary study was required regarding the spontaneous settlement of different vegetal … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2009 · 7,361 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of Blood Turbulent Flow in Carotid Artery Including the Effects of Mural Thrombosis Using Finite Element ModelingM. Arab-Ghanbari, M. M. Khani, A. Arefmanesh, F. Tabatabai-GhomsheArterial thrombosis is an extremely significant health problem. As a result of numerous factors involved in such problem, describing the role of hemodynamics in thrombogenesis has been asserted to be one of the most demanding and complicated challenges in biomechanics. An axisymmetric model considering fluid-structure interactions (FSI) was introduced and numerically solved for an artery with a thrombosis to perform … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2009 · 7,408 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Use of Taguchi Method to Determine Factors Affecting the Performance of Destination Sequence Distance Vector Routing Protocol in Mobile Ad Hoc NetworksHazura. Mohamed, Muhammad Hisyam Lee, Mazalan Sarahintu et al.In this study, Taguchi method was used to identify the several factors that may affect the performance of Destination Sequence Distance Vector (DSDV) routing protocol. The performance of DSDV routing protocol in mobile ad hoc networks were greatly influence by factors such as node speed, node pause time and traffic load. Problem statement: By using orthogonal experimental design and analysis … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,797 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Integration of Network-Based Models for Spill Response and Homeland SecurityDavid E. Amstutz, Rakesh Bahadur, Jonathan M. Pickus et al.The integration of three hydraulic GIS (Geographic Information System) applications is presented which represent the water infrastructures of cities and urban areas and US streams and rivers. The water infrastructures include drinking water distribution systems, wastewater collection systems and source water. The National Research Council[1] states that problems dealing with the collective behavior of networks such as river systems, water … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,729 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSynthesizing Behavioral Model of Event-Based RequirementsSeyyed M. BabamirProblem Statement: in the software engineering field, satisfaction of user's requirements by software has been a matter of concern. Therefore, monitoring software behavior against user's high-level requirements has already received a considerable and significant attention. However, the gap between low-level software behavior and high-level requirements has put an obstacle in the way of monitoring. Approach: to overcome the obstacle, we … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2008 · 6,667 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHydrochemical Differentiation of Salinisation Process of the Water in Endoreic Semi-Arid Basin: Case of Rémila Basin, AlgeriaHouha Belgacem, Kherici Nacer, Kachi Slimane, Valles VincentThe aim of this study is to determine and treat a hierarchical basis of the various mechanisms responsible for the space variation of the water quality in a endoreic semi-arid basin. The water chemistry showed a large variability in space and time. The total dissolved solid (TDS) in water increases from upstream to downstream due to the effect of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2008 · 7,307 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRetinoids and Opioids: Factors in the Development of HIV-Related Neurological DiseaseWalter Royal, III, Joseph L. BryantNeurological disease occurs frequently in HIV-infected individuals and may occur at even higher rates among infected drug users. Among the potential mechanisms that promote such impairment, retinoid deficiency may have selective effects that could both lead to alterations in immune function and enhanced replication of HIV. Studies are currently underway to examine the possible selective effects of retinoid receptor activation … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 6,764 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Frequency of Polymorphisms affecting Lead and Mercury Toxicity among Children with AutismShannon Rose, Stepan Melnyk, Alena Savenka et al.Individual risk of developmental neurotoxicity with exposure to environmentally relevant levels of lead and mercury is likely to be determined by genetic susceptibility factors as well as additive interactions with other environmental pollutants, cumulative dose, and the developmental stage of exposure. The apparent increase in autism diagnosis over the last 15 years has enhanced interest in the possibility that an … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,521 accessesView PDFCite
