Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDirect Shocks in Vibrationally Nonequilibrium Diatomic Gases at Various Distances from Critical Cross-Section of NozzleRydalevskaya Maria Alexandrovna, Voroshilova Yulia Nikolaevna, Uskov Vladimir NikolaevichThe high-temperature diatomic gas flows are considered in expanding nozzles under the conditions of a disturbance of the equilibrium distribution over vibrational levels of the molecules. The investigation of such flows is bound up with the problem of the inversion of the vibrational populations in the active mediums of molecular lasers. Under diverse values of the pressure overfall on coming … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 11 · 7 Jan 2015 · 6,655 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHABITAT SUITABILITY MODELING FOR EXPLORATION OF THE SPATIAL DISTRIBUTION OF KASHMIR MUSK DEER IN DACHIGAM NATIONAL PARK, KASHMIRMudasir AliMusk deer are highly important as a medicinal species that are severely exploited throughout their range of occurrence due to the medicinal value of the musk produced only by the male individuals. Methods used for studying the populations and distributions of other ungulates do not work well with musk deer and the presence of a unified methodology for studying musk … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 5 · 20 Aug 2014 · 7,864 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractANALYTICAL PROBLEMS AND APPROACHES TOWARDS IMPROVING THE UTILIZATION OF PRIMARY HEALTH CARE SERVICES BY THE RURAL COMMUNITIES IN NIGERIAShilni Alfred PukumaUtilization of healthcare services for the most vulnerable and underprivileged populations have been recommended by the World Health Organization as a basic primary healthcare concept. It has been suggested that healthcare should be universally accessible without barriers based on affordability, physical accessibility, or acceptability of services Access to quality health is a basic civic right of all Nigerian citizens. While … …International Journal of Research in Nursing, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 22 Jul 2014 · 7,310 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMELATONIN PROTECTS THE INTEGRITY OF GASTRIC STRUCTURE FROM A STERILE TISSUE INJURY AND AUGMENTS BOTH MONONUCLEAR AND POLYMORPHONUCLEAR PERIPHERAL BLOOD CELLS INDUCED BY THE INJURY IN WISTAR ALBINO RATSBahjat Al-AniPeptic ulcer is a common upper gastrointestinal disease that remains a major public health problem. Gastric ulceration caused by Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAID), stress and alcohol are the common causes of gastric ulcer formation in humans following helicobacter pylori bacterial infection of the stomach. The neurohormone, melatonin was reported to protect against NSAID- and stress-induced gastric lesions. We sought to … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 17 Mar 2014 · 7,230 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPrevention and Prophylaxis of Tick Bites and Tick-Borne Related DiseasesLara Garcia-Alvarez, Ana Maria Palomar, Jose Antonio OteoTicks are obligate haematophagous arthropods present all over the world able to produce human diseases. Several factors have increased the abundance, circulation and distribution of the pathogens transmitted by ticks, contributing to the change in the vector-borne diseases epidemiology in the last years. This review collects the most important measures for the prevention and prophylaxis of tick-borne diseases. The pre-exposition … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 5 Nov 2013 · 7,694 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAirway Metrics, Anatomy and Growth Performance of Pigs Reared Indoors and OutdoorsChakia Joi McClendon, Sherrell Pettiford, Dawn Conklin et al.While the swine industry has made incredible strides to improve ventilation, air quality in confinement buildings remains an issue. The goal of this study is to characterize correlation between large airway metrics and growth performance in piglets reared indoors and outdoors on pasture. Three experimental trials were conducted: Trial 1 included three breed types that were strictly raised indoors, Tamworth … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 24 Sep 2013 · 7,587 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStructural Consequences of the Polymorphism Q223R in the Human Leptin Receptor: A Molecular Dynamics StudyJonathan P. Carrillo-Vázquez, Brenda Chimal-Vega, Beatriz Zamora-López et al.Leptin Receptor (LEPR) is a component of a signaling pathway related to appetite and energy expenditure. Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNP) of Leptin receptor gene (lepr) have been proposed as possible modulator of adipose tissue and body weight. The main phenomenological consequence reported of these SNPs is the modulation of the LEP-LEPR interaction promoting the weight gain. Particularly, Q223R polymorphism has … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 23 Sep 2013 · 7,839 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTransmission Model of Chikungunya Fever in the Presence of Two Species of Aedes MosquitoesSurapol Naowarat, I. Ming TangIn 2008 there was a large outbreak of Chikungunya fever in the south of Thailand. Chikungunya fever is a febrile disease transmitted to humans by the bite of infected Aedes mosquitoes. The symptoms of this disease are a sudden onset of a fever, chills, headache, nausea, vomiting, joint pain with or without swelling, low back pain and rash. In this … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 5 · 27 May 2013 · 7,232 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Some Heavy Metals in Some Morpho-Physiological Parameters in Maize SeedlingsSali Aliu, Bekim Gashi, Imer Rusinovci et al.Nowadays the heavy-metal pollution of the soil is causing ever greater problems, exacerbated by the fact that the heavy metals accumulated in plants may, either directly or indirectly, find their way into animals and human beings. Maize is one of the world’s most important crops, ranking third after wheat and rice, so the changes induced by one of the most … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 18 Mar 2013 · 8,432 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVariability and Genetic Structure in a Commercial Field of Tequila Plants, Agave tequilana Weber (Agavaceae)Martha Isabel Torres-Moran, Ana Paulina Velasco-Ramirez, Salvador Antonio Hurtado-de la Pena et al.Crops of the tequila plant (Agave tequilana) are produced mainly from offshoots of mother plants in established commercial fields. This propagation method is significant, as it is believed that it facilitates the spread of disease because of the crop’s low genetic variability and is also necessary because it is regulate the use of just that variety in tequila industry. Different … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 22 Feb 2013 · 8,096 accessesView PDFCite
