Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRandomized Clinical Stroke Trials In 2008Meheroz H. RabadiProblem statement: Stroke ranks as the third leading cause of death and the leading cause of serious, long-term disability; estimated direct and indirect cost of stroke for 2009 was $68.9 billion. Approach: The objective of this review was to examine the effectiveness of emerging pharmacotherapies in patients with acute (≤2 weeks), sub-acute (2-12 weeks) and chronic (≥12 weeks) stroke studied … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,006 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCytoprotective Effect of UlGen, a Polyherbal Formulation against Physical and Chemical Factor Induced Gastric Ulcers in Wister Albino RatsT. S. Muralidhar, Anna Balaji, Chinmay Bandopadhyay, S. L. ShanthaProblem statement: UlGen, a Polyherbal formulation, was investigated for its possible Ulcero-protective activity in ulcerogen and Cold-restraint stress induced Wister rats (Rattus rattus). Oral administration of UlGen, at a dose of 800 mg kg-1 significantly protected the onset of cold-resistance stress induced ulcerations. Approach: It significantly inhibited gastric ulceration induced by alcohol and aspirin. Control group: Alcohol 80% induced ulcer … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 8,182 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnomaly Detection in Electroencephalogram Signals Using Unconstrained Minimum Average Correlation Energy FilterAini Hussain, Rosniwati Ghafar, Salina Abdul Samad, Nooritawati Md TahirProblem statement: Electroencepharogram (EEG) is an extremely complex signal with very low signal to noise ratio and these attributed to difficulty in analyzing the signal. Hence for detecting abnormal segment, a distinctive method is required to train the technologist to distinguish the anomalous in EEG data. The objective of this study was to create a framework to analyze EEG signals … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2009 · 7,329 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment of Efficient Finite Element Software of Crack Propagation Simulation using Adaptive Mesh StrategyAbdulnaser M. Alshoaibi, A. K. Ariffin, M. N. AlmaghrabiThe purpose of this study is on the determination of 2D crack paths and surfaces as well as on the evaluation of the stress intensity factors as a part of the damage tolerant assessment. Problem statement: The evaluation of SIFs and crack tip singular stresses for arbitrary fracture structure are a challenging problem, involving the calculation of the crack path … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,830 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFirst Confirmed Case of Digital Dermatitis in GreeceP.D. Katsoulos, A. Minas, G. ChristodoulopoulosThe objective of the present study was to report the first confirmed case of digital dermatitis in Greece, emphasizing to the clinical appearance of the disease and to discuss some potential mechanisms concerning the entrance and the contagiousness of the disease in a new herd. The outbreak occurred in a new dairy farm of 60 primiparous Holstein cows in Thessaloniki … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 6,828 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBoundary Effect on Marangoni Convection in a Variable Viscosity Fluid LayerN.Z. Abidin, N.M. Arifin, M.S.M. NooraniThe onset of Marangoni convection in a horizontal fluid layer with a free surface overlying a solid layer heated from below is studied. Problem is focused on the effect of the solid layer depth or its conductivity. The viscosity group, Rv, Biot number, Bi, depth ratio, dr and conductivity ratio, kr, are significant on determining the critical Marangoni number Mc … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 6,920 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Bacillus subtilis 'PB6' (ATCC - PTA 6737) on Clostridium difficile Associated Diarrhea (CDAD) and Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) in Animal ModelsEric Peys, Jerry Varghese, Ponusami Suresh et al.The administration of probiotic bacteria is emerging as a potential means of preventing the onset or recurrence of Clostridium difficile associated diarrhea (CDAD) and of attenuating inflammatory activity and preventing relapses in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). We evaluated the efficacy of Bacillus subtilis 'PB6' (ATCC - PTA 6737) in a hamster model of antibiotic-induced CDAD and in a rat model … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,102 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImmunodeficient Parameters in the HIV-1 Transgenic Rat ModelSulie L. Chang, Frank Ocasio, Jose A. BeltranRecently an HIV-1 transgenic (HIV-1Tg) rat model was created that carries a gag-pol-deleted HIV-1 genome under the control of the HIV-1 viral promoter. However, other viral proteins are expressed in most organs and tissues, and are found in the circulating blood. Since HIV-1 targets the immune system in humans, we examined two immunological parameters, leukocyte-endothelial adhesion (LEA) and inflammatory cytokine … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,839 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMicroarray Analysis of Human Vascular Smooth Muscle Cell Responses to Bacterial LipopolysaccharideJoe Minta James, J. Yun, Sandy Der, Shikha RanaAccumulating evidence suggest a causal role of bacterial and viral infections in atherogenesis. Bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) has been shown to stimulate resting vascular smooth muscle cells (SMC) with the production of inflammatory cytokines and modulation of quiescent cells to the proliferative and synthetic phenotype. To comprehensively identify biologically important genes associated with LPS-induced SMC phenotype modulation, we compared the transcriptomes … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 31 Dec 2007 · 6,998 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudy on Mechanism of Ascites Syndrome of BroilersJ.L. Guo, Q.H. Zheng, Q.Q. YIN et al.Two hundred and forty male Cobb broilers were used to study the reasons of causing ascites. The results showed that cold ambient temperature could induce ascites (33.89% vs. 2.50%) and significantly increase triiodothyronine (T3), but reduce thyroxine (T4) concentrations in plasma (p<0.05). The ascitic broilers had high concentrations of aldosterone and K+, but low concentrations of T3 and T4 in … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,850 accessesView PDFCite
