Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEfficacy of Tylosin Tartrate on Mycoplasma Infections and Eggshell Apex Abnormalities in Layer Hens Under Field ConditionsKonstantinos C. Koutoulis, George Kefalas, Niki Mouttotou et al.The aim of this report was to describe a clinical case of concurrent infection with Mycoplasma Gallisepticum (MG) and Mycoplasma Synoviae (MS) in layers, complicated with Escherichia coli and Pasteurella multocida, as well as to evaluate the efficacy of tylosin tartrate treatment (Pharmasin® 100% WSG, Huvepharma) on Mycoplasma under field conditions. A flock of 18,500 ISA Brown pullets, 21 weeks … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 20 Dec 2013 · 8,732 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleNeuroendocrine Abnormalities in Drug Abusers and HIV-Infected Individuals: Cortisol Response to Cold Pressor ChallengeMahendra Kumar, Drenna Waldrop-Valverde, Adarsh M. Kumar et al.Although endocrine abnormalities have been reported in HIV-1 infection, the role of risk factors is not understood. Injecting drug use (IDU) is an important risk factor for contracting HIV-infection and studies suggest that substance use may also be associated with endocrine dysfunction. In order to investigate hypothalamic pituitary adrenal (HPA) axis activity in this population, this study investigated cortisol response … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,594 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
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAbnormalities in Ultrasonic (C-Scan) Images of Composite Structures: Impact Damaged Versus Hole DamagedMahmoud Zaki IskandaraniThis paper is about applying image processing to detect different types and levels of damage in composite structures using in C-scan images produced by ultrasonic testing. This method plays an important role as it can detect any discontinuities or flaws in the specimen. To analyze such critical image in an, automated inspection environment an image processing method that correlates Threshold … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 15, Issue 7 · 23 Jul 2019 · 8,230 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDetection of Respiratory Abnormalities Using Artificial Neural NetworksMahdi J. Baemani, Amirhasan Monadjemi, Payman MoallemProblem Statement: Lung disease is a major threat to the human health regarding the industrial life, air pollution, smoking, and infections. Lung function tests are often performed using spirometry. Approach: The present study aims at detecting obstructive and restrictive pulmonary abnormalities. Lung function tests are often performed using spirometry. In this study, the data were obtained from 250 volunteers with … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 6,634 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleIdentification of Novel Chromosomal Abnormalities, inv(5)(p13q13) and t(7;18)(q32;q21), Associated with AutismZheng Chen, Xiao-bing Zou, Ya-nan Zhang et al.Autism is a neurodevelopmental disorder defined by impairments in social interaction, communication, as well as restricted and stereotyped behaviors. While the etiology of autism remains largely unknown, the existence of genetic components has been clearly demonstrated in autistic pathogenesis. The incidence of autism is 50-100 fold greater in the population with autistic family history than the general population. Chromosomal abnormalities … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 6,773 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMetabolic Abnormalities Associated with the Use of Protease Inhibitors and Non-nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase InhibitorsMadhu N. Rao, Grace A. Lee, Carl GrunfeldThe use of protease inhibitors and non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors for the treatment of HIV infection and AIDS has been associated with multiple abnormalities in glucose and lipid metabolism. Specifically, these abnormalities include insulin resistance, increased triglycerides and increased LDL cholesterol levels. The metabolic disturbances are due to a combination of factors, including the direct effect of medications, restoration to … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,936 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleFedCarepod: Federated Quantum Transfer Learning Approach in Screening Process for Early Detection of Liver AbnormalitiesK MalaThe liver is the most frequently injured intra-abdominal organ that leads to complications. Visual interpretation depends on the expertise, and this justifies the need for automatic accelerated assistive prediction system. Classical and Quantum machine learning approaches are combined to leverage their benefits, and the feasibility of designing a novel system is explored. This approach successfully ends up with health care … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 10 · 16 Dec 2025 · 2,068 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSegmentation of Exudates via Color-based K-means Clustering and Statistical-based ThresholdingAtef Zaki Ghalwash, Aliaa Abdel-Halim Youssif, Ali Mohamed Nabil AllamThis paper provides a novel approach for the problem of detecting the yellowish lesions in the eye fundus images, such as hard and soft exudates, in a fully-automated manner. To solve this problem of segmenting exudates automatically, the fundus image was first converted into the L*a*b* color space to decouple the chromaticity information of the image. Next, the fundus image … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 13, Issue 10 · 14 Oct 2017 · 7,725 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAbnormal Glucose Regulation and Treatment Strategies for Insulin Resistance HIV-Infected PatientsSteven GrinspoonHIV-infected patients receiving highly active antiretroviral therapy often demonstrate abnormalities in glucose regulation, in association with changes in fat distribution[1,2]. In the majority of cases, these abnormalities are best characterized by insulin resistance and impaired glucose tolerance, rather than overt diabetes mellitus and fasting hyperglycemia. Insulin resistance may result from direct effects of antiretroviral therapy, changes in fat distribution or … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,387 accessesView PDFCite
