Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the keywordsIntracranial Atherosclerotic Disease: Treatment Potential and Diagnostic OpportunitiesAnastasia Vladimirovna Poznyak, Victoria Alexandrovna Khotina, Anton Yuvenalievich Postnov et al.Atherosclerosis, characterized by the accumulation of atherosclerotic plaques within large arteries, substantially increases the risk of cardiovascular events, including ischemic stroke. Intracranial atherosclerotic disease (ICAD) represents a particularly significant clinical threat given its strong association with ischemic stroke across multiple intracranial arterial territories. This review provides a comprehensive analysis of the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and management of intracranial atherosclerosis. Special attention … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 1 · 5 May 2026 · 1,093 accessesView PDFCite
Case ReportOpen accessIn the keywordsA Case of a Young Patient with Acute Endocarditis and Challenging Diagnostic and Treatment DecisionsPau Rello, Teresa González-Alujas, Laura Escolà-Vergé et al.Despite advances achieved in recent years, Infective Endocarditis (IE) remains a disease associated with high mortality and morbidity. When it involves multiple locations at the same time, deciding the best treatment can become challenging. In some cases, especially in patients with prosthetic valve endocarditis, a definitive diagnosis can be difficult to achieve and multimodality imaging including Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 17, Issue 3 · 9 Jun 2021 · 7,382 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMEDICAL IMAGE SEGMENTATION FOR ANATOMICAL KNOWLEDGE EXTRACTIONMs Maya Eapen, Reeba KorahComputed Tomography-Angiography (CTA) images of the abdomen, followed by precise segmentation and subsequent computation of shape based features of liver play an important role in hepatic surgery, patient/donor diagnosis during liver transplantation and at various treatment stages. Nevertheless, the issues like intensity similarity and Partial Volume Effect (PVE) between the neighboring organs; left the task of liver segmentation critical. The … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 7 · 22 Feb 2014 · 6,460 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIncreasing the Critical Micellar Concentration (CMC) of Surfactants Enhances the Removal of Pathogenic Bacteria, P. Aeruginosa, and S. Aureus from WastewaterImen Laadouze, Emna Grami et al.Antimicrobial effects of increasing Critical Micellar Concentration (CMCn) (n varying from 1-12) on Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27853 and Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 29213 over time of 5-, 10, and 20-minute exposures were evaluated. Three types of surfactants (Cetyltrime Thylammonium Ammonium Bromide (CTAB), Dodecyl Sulfate (SDS), and TX-100) were evaluated. The results showed that CTAB had the greatest impact on both bacterial … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 8 May 2026 · 1,992 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLarge Scale Synthesis of ZnO Nanostructures of Different Morphologies through Solvent-free Mechanochemical Synthesis and their Application in Photocatalytic Dye DegradationRaúl Sánchez Zeferino, Jesús Alberto Ramos Ramón, Ma. Eunice de Anda Reyes et al.Well crystalline, near-stoichiometric zinc oxide nanostructures of different morphologies are fabricated in large scale, utilizing a simple, cost effective mechanochemical synthesis in absence of solvent. Effects of ionic and nonionic surfactants along with the concentration of hydrolyzing agent on the evolution of nanostructure morphology have been studied. It has been observed that while a cationic surfactant such as Cetyltrimethylammonium Bromide … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 16 Jan 2016 · 8,932 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPreparation of WO3 Nanoparticles Using Cetyl Trimethyl Ammonium Bromide Supermolecular TemplateNilofar Asim, S. Radiman, M. Ambar bin YarmoProblem statement: WO3 is one of the most interested metal oxides because of its application as catalysts, sensors, electrochromic devices, ceramic, solar cell, pigments and so on. More investigation is needed to find the good and low cost method for preparation of WO3 nanoparticles with uniform morphology and narrow distribution using a surfactant mediated method. Approach: In this study, the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2009 · 7,699 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSynthesis of Mesoporous Titania with Surfactant and its CharacterizationT. Benkacem, N. AgoudjilA mesoporous titania was obtained by gelation from Ti-alkoxide in acidic solutions with addition of surfactant cetyltrimetylammonium bromide (CH3(CH2)15N(CH3)3Br) using a sol-gel process. The effects of surfactant concentration on synthesis of mesoporous titania were studied. The structural characterisation was studied by differential thermal analysis, infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction. Studies by X-ray diffraction showed that crystallisation of TiO2 powder occurs at … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2008 · 7,414 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractKinetic Study of the Effect of Selected Surfactants on Corrosion of CopperHowaida M. El-KashlanThe rates of copper corrosion were determined by measuring the limiting current of anodic dissolution of copper in phosphoric acid in presence and in absence of cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) and cetyl pyridinium bromide (CPYB). The rate of corrosion is found to decrease by increasing the concentration of the surfactant. The percentage of inhibition ranged from 1.85 to 33.97% … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2008 · 7,137 accessesView PDFCite
