Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsRat Cardiomyocytes Express a Classical Epithelial Beta-DefensinAnnika Linde, Gerald H. Lushington, Frank Blecha, Tonatiuh MelgarejoBeta-defensins (BDs) are classical epithelial antimicrobial peptides of immediate importance in innate host defense. Since recent studies have suggested that certain BDs are also expressed in non-traditional tissues, including whole heart homogenate, and because effector molecules of innate immunity and inflammation can influence the development of certain cardiovascular disease processes, we hypothesized that BDs are produced by cardiomyocytes as a … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,000 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffects of Administration of Alpha-Melanocyte Stimulating Hormone (α-MSH) on Some Hematological Values of Alloxan-induced Diabetic RatsKamal M.S. MansiThis study was designed to evaluate the role of alpha- melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH) on heart rate and some hematological values in alloxan induced diabetic rats. 40 male white rats were divided into four experimental groups: control, diabetic, α-MSH-treated and α-MSH-treated diabetic. At the end of the experimental period (3weeks), animals in all four groups were fasted for 12 hrs … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2006 · 7,371 accessesView PDFCite
Research NotesOpen accessIn the keywordsTime-Resolution of Climate Change Monitoring Volcanic Cycles, Stromboli, Ocean Floor Biota and Pandemics (?)Giovanni Pietro Gregori, Gabriele PaparoClimate change is an ongoing, poorly understood and disquieting challenge. The primary drivers are debated. Clear evidence is however suggestive of a time variation of the planetary release of endogenous energy. In fact, soil exhalation is an unprecedented challenge for humankind, as a phenomenon of this kind happens only every 27.40.05 Ma, while human history spans only the last 30,0000 … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 7 Sep 2021 · 6,258 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsUsing Feature Selection as Accuracy Benchmarking in Clinical Data MiningJafreen Hossain, Nor FazlidaMohdSani, Aida Mustapha, Lilly SurianiAffendeyAutomated prediction of new patients’ disease diagnosis based on data mining analysis on historical data is proven to be an extremely useful tool in the medical innovation. There are several studies focusing on this particular aspect. The objective of this study is two-fold. First, we look into three different classifiers, which are the Naïve Bayes, Multilayer Perceptron (MLP) and Decision … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 7 · 20 Jun 2013 · 7,468 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsLipid Profile and Antioxidant Enzymes in Normal and Stressed Rat Fed with Palm OleinEqbal M.A. Dauqan, Aminah Abdullah, Halimah Abdullah SaniProblem statement: The objective of the study was to evaluate the effect of Red Palm Olein (RPO) and Palm Olein (PO) on lipid profile and antioxidant enzyme in normal and stressed rat. Approach: Thirty six Sprague Dawley male rats which were randomly divided into six groups of 6 rats per group (tree normal groups and three stressed groups) were treated … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 7 · 18 May 2012 · 6,882 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffect of Intraperitoneally Injection of Different Doses of Lovastatin on Pain and Inflammatory Response Induced by Formalin in MiceKhayatnouri MirhadiProblem statement: The 3-Hydroxy-3-Methyl Glutaryl-CoA (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitors (statins) have been unequivocally shown to reduce cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Their lipid-lowering actions are by reversible and competitive inhibition of the enzyme HMG-CoA reductase, a precursor of cholesterol. It has been suggested that statins appear to have therapeutic benefits in diseases that are unrelated to elevated serum cholesterol levels, such as … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 11 Jan 2012 · 7,685 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAn Analysis of a Severe Neck Pain Experienced in a Polymyositis PatientR.M. Golding, L.G.F. GilesFollowing a twisting strain with immediate pain in the neck of a polymyositis patient we detail the analysis of a specific range of data gathered before and after the event. The results reinforce that in this case that the creatine kinase isoenzyme and cardiac Troponin T cannot be used as an indicator of myocardial disease. …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 6,813 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAn Analysis of the Creatine Kinase Isoenzyme and Cardiac Troponin T Levels in a Polymyositis PatientR.M. Golding, L.G.F. Giles, E.M. SokoyaFrom an extensive model developed to interpret physiological processes we are able to show that the observed elevated creatine kinase-myoglobin (CK-MB) and serum concentration of cardiac troponin T (cTnT) values for a particular patient are associated with the inflammatory disease, polymyositis, and not myocardial injury. This highlights that caution must be exercised in using elevated CK-MB and cTnT levels as … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,879 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of Vitamin D Deficiency on Cardio Metabolic Ageing in Middle Aged Adults in India: A Comparative AnalysisSumit Kumar, Adithi K, Shailaja S MoodithayaAdvancing age is accompanied by a gradual deterioration in physiological function, resulting in an increased risk of chronic diseases and early mortality. Growing evidence suggests that inadequate vitamin D status may be associated with unfavourable metabolic and cardiovascular alterations. Nevertheless, information regarding the association of vitamin D status with integrated cardio-metabolic biomarkers of ageing in middle-aged adults is currently limited. … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 3 · 3 Sep 2026 · 738 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInternet of Things Based COVID-19 Patient in Self-Isolation Monitoring SystemBagaskara Akbar Fadhlillah, Ditdit Nugeraha UtamaSelf-isolation has become a critical measure for managing symptomatic or asymptomatic COVID-19 patients, particularly when healthcare facilities are overwhelmed. This study explores a monitoring system based on commercially available Wear OS smartwatches designed to track patient vital signs, specifically oxygen saturation (SpO₂), heart rate, and location, and generate alerts during atypical events. The research has two primary objectives, first, to … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 12 · 12 Feb 2026 · 1,293 accessesView PDFCite
