Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHousing Pregnant Sows in Turnaround Stalls During Gestation Impacts Behavior, Immune and Well-BeingAshley DeDecker, Michael Mandru, Janeen L. Salak-JohnsonThis study aimed to determine the effects of housing gestating multiparous sows in alternative turn-around stalls on selective measures of well-being. Sows were randomly assigned to either a Turn-Around Stall (TAS) or standard Straight Stall (STS) from gestational day 6 until 110. Behavior was registered on days 6, 30, 45, 65, 90 and 110 of gestation and immune and cortisol … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 14 Nov 2018 · 7,967 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of Proven Viral Load on Common Cold Patients Treated with Pelargonium sidoides Preparation EPs 7630Tilman Keck, Andreas Strobl, Andreas Weinhaeusel, Berenike StrackeThe Common Cold (CC) is an acute respiratory tract disorder with viral etiology in at least 90% of the cases. Nevertheless, molecular diagnostic testing often confirms the presence of viral Nucleic Acids (NA) in only about half of the patients. Based on the results of a non-comparative, interventional multicenter study we compare the course of CC between patients with and … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 14, Issue 3 · 13 Nov 2018 · 8,405 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Better Approach to Ontology Integration using Clustering Through Global Similarity MeasureAshwin Makwana, Amit GanatraKnowledge representation is a crucial area of work in the intelligent system, especially in query answering system development. Ontology is used to represent shared knowledge of a particular domain for query answering system. Domain-specific ontology can be designed and developed by many groups and researchers, because of which there is heterogeneity in the knowledgebase. Ontology integration or merging is necessary … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 14, Issue 6 · 25 Jun 2018 · 8,231 accessesView PDFCite
Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the abstractThe Role of Gesture in the Second Language Learning and TeachingNing Cao, Guanying ChenThis paper outlines the crucial role of gesture in the second Language (L2) learning and teaching. Many studies showed that gesture is a key factor in the second language acquisition since it can help to convey meaning, to compensate for speech difficulties and to enhance memory compared to pure verbal learning. The presence of gestures with a verbal message in … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 12 · 4 Jan 2018 · 10,208 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Temperature and Precipitation on Global Mangrove Rhizophora Species DistributionAroloye O. Numbere, Gerardo R. CamiloClimate change influences the distribution of mangroves towards tropical or temperate regions of the world. We hypothesized that Rhizophora species organized along complex spatial and temporal temperature and precipitation gradient. To determine the affinity of different mangroves with climatic parameters, the response of eight Rhizophora species to seven climatic parameters (i.e., annual mean temperature, annual precipitation, maximum temperature of warmest … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 5 · 5 Oct 2017 · 8,266 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Conceptual Model for Risk Allocation in the Construction IndustryChipozya Kosta Tembo-Silungwe, Nthatisi KhatleliAppropriate risk allocation influences positive project delivery on construction projects while inappropriate allocation results in disputes, quality shortfalls, time and cost overruns. The existing body of knowledge provides guides on how risks should be allocated between the contracting parties. Nevertheless, the full appreciation of risks allocation is rarely given as risk allocation is more than just which party should bear … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 7 · 26 Jun 2017 · 8,948 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Framework for Systematizing Personalized Thai Herbal Medicine: A Case Study Covering Gynecological ConditionsCharinee Prompukdee, Jaratsri Rungrattanaubol, Chayanin PratoomsootThai Traditional Medicine (TTM) is an integral part of Thai traditional culture, with a history which spans many centuries. As part of this tradition, a significant number of historical pharmacopoeias and herbal textbooks have been preserved but much of the content of these texts is hard to access and interpret and so this paper proposes a framework for applying knowledge … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 13, Issue 6 · 24 Jun 2017 · 7,555 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractChronic Visceral Pain and Functional DiseasesVictor V. ChabanA functional disorder is a medical condition that impairs the normal physiological function of organs without organic cause such as inflammation. The accumulation of abnormalities that limit body functions is a major risk factor for patients with functional disorders such as Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), Chronic Pelvic Pain (CPP), Painful Bladder Syndrome (PBS) and others. Often, functional disorders co-morbid by … …International Journal of Research in Nursing, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 21 Jun 2017 · 6,996 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractScheduling Jobs through Gap Filling and Optimization Techniques in Computational GridOmar Dakkak, Shahrudin Awang Nor, Suki ArifDue to the heterogeneity and complexity in grid computing, classical algorithms may not be able to deal with dynamic jobs properly. In the dynamic mode, incoming jobs reach the scheduler arbitrary. Therefore, scheduling the jobs using simple policy alone deteriorates the performance of the scheduler. Thus, a policy that can handle the dynamicity efficiently is indispensable. This paper presents the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 13, Issue 5 · 17 May 2017 · 7,421 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGreen Tea Treatment Attenuates Oxidative Damage and Neuromotor Deficit Induced by an Experimental Model of Intracerebral Hemorrhage in RatsMauren Assis Souza, Caroline Dalla Colletta Altermann, Alexandre dos Santos Martins et al.The present study shows the neuroprotective effect of green tea supplementation (GT; Camellia sinensis) in a model of Intracerebral Hemorrhage (ICH) in rats. ICH was induced by intra-striatum collagenase infusion in male Wistar rats. GT (400 mg Kg-1) was administered via gavage for 10 days after ICH. We assessed the effect of GT on neuromotor recovery and oxidative damage. Our … …Neuroscience International, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 19 Mar 2017 · 8,603 accessesView PDFCite
