Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSystem Availability in the Presence of Estimating Common-cause Time-varying Failure RatesM. A. El-Damcese, Kh. A. Abd AlttifThis study presents a method for calculating the availability of a system depicted by availability block diagram, with identically distributed components, in the presence of estimating common cause hazard, we use the Marshall and Olkin formulation of the multivariate exponential distribution. That is, the components are subject to failure by Poisson failure processes that govern simultaneous failure of a specific … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2005 · 6,732 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleOptic Neuropathy: Characteristic Pathology for Identifying Drugs with Potential to Cause Mitochondrial ToxicityConnor Dyer, Katlyn Droke, Ugne Zekonyte, Mariana RoscaDeleterious effects on mitochondria are known to be frequently caused by prescription drugs, however, there is no standard and specific testing by pharmaceutical companies on these effects on mitochondria during drug development. The objective of this study is to determine if cases of optic neuropathy are related to drug-induced mitochondrial toxicity in a way that could be used to predict … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 19 Jan 2024 · 8,562 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Boko Haram Terrorism: Causes Still MisunderstoodSogo Angel Olofinbiyi, Jean SteynThere have been widespread assumptions across the globe that the root cause of Boko Haram terrorism in Nigeria is religious rather than socio-economic. An investigation into this dichotomy allowed this study to fully demonstrate that the root cause of Boko Haram’s terrorist actions emanates from the non-fulfilment of socio-economic goals that are prompted by the violation of fundamental human rights, … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 30 Mar 2018 · 10,107 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCost Analysis of a System Involving Common-Cause Failures and Preventive MaintenanceM.Y. HaggagProblem statement: Many authors have studied the cost analysis of a two-unit cold standby redundant system with two types of unit failure, but no attention was paid to the reliability of a system involving common-cause failures and preventive maintenance. Question was raised whether the preventive maintenance would be effective on the reliability and performance of the system. Determine the efficacy … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,606 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePatient and Mouse Antibodies against Dengue Virus Nonstructural Protein 1 Cross-React with Platelets and Cause Their Dysfunction or DepletionChiou-Feng Lin, Huan-Yao Lei, Ching-Chuan Liu et al.Thrombocytopenia is a clinical manifestation in dengue virus (DV) infection, yet its pathogenic mechanisms are unresolved. We previously showed that dengue patient sera contained antibodies cross-reactive with platelets. In this study, we demonstrated that the anti-platelet activity of dengue patient sera was due to the antibodies against DV nonstructural protein 1 (NS1). Studies using DV-infected or recombinant NS1-immunized mouse sera … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,321 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleReliability Evaluation of Distributed Computer Systems Subject to Imperfect Coverage and Dependent Common-Cause FailuresLiudong Xing, Akhilesh ShresthaImperfect coverage (IPC) occurs when a malicious component failure causes extensive damage due to inadequate fault detection, fault location or fault recovery. Common-cause failures (CCF) are multiple dependent component failures within a system due to a shared root cause. Both imperfect coverage and common-cause failures can exist in distributed computer systems and can contribute significantly to the overall system unreliability. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 6 · 28 Sep 2006 · 6,838 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleGonadal and Adrenal Abnormalities in Drug Users: Cause or Consequence of Drug Use Behavior and Poor Health OutcomesTodd T. Brown, Amy B. Wisniewski, Adrian S. DobsOpiates and cocaine both have effects on adrenal and gonadal function. Opiates suppress the hypothalamic-pituitary adrenal (HPA) axis, whereas cocaine leads to HPA activation. Opiates also cause gonadal dysfunction in both men and women. During withdrawal from opiates and cocaine, the HPA axis is activated which may reinforce relapse behavior. This review describes these hormonal effects and explores the potential … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 7,049 accessesView PDFCite
