Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleGadolinium at Low Concentration Suppresses both Osteoclastic and Osteoblastic Activities in the Scales of GoldfishNobuo Suzuki, Kazuki Watanabe, Aika Sekimoto et al.For determining the effect of environmental pollutants on fish bone metabolism, we have developed an in vitro bioassay system using teleost scales that has osteoclasts, osteoblasts and bone matrix as markers: alkaline phosphatase (ALP) for osteoblasts and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) for osteoclasts. Using this bioassay, the influence of gadolinium (Gd) on osteoclasts and osteoblasts of goldfish scales was examined … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 20 Sep 2019 · 8,451 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleTen Common Misunderstandings, Misconceptions, Persistent Myths and Urban Legends about Likert Scales and Likert Response Formats and their AntidotesJames Carifio, Rocco J. PerlaA recent article by Jamieson in Medical Education outlined some of the (alleged) abuses of "Likert scales" with suggestions about how researchers can overcome some of the (alleged) methodological pitfalls and limitations[1]. However, many of the ideas advanced in the Jamison article, as well as a great many of articles it cited, and similar recent articles in medical, health, psychology, … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 53,786 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleRELIABILITY OF THE GERMAN LANGUAGE VERSION OF THE PRESCHOOL AND KINDERGARTEN BEHAVIOR SCALES SECOND EDITIONAida Al Awmleh, Alexander WollThe purpose of this study was to examine the reliability and validity of the English and German language versions of the behavior rating scale, Preschool and Kindergarten Behavior Scales, Second Edition (PKBS-2) and make a comparison between them. Data were collected from (37) preschool-age children using both the English and German versions. Internal consistency, testing and retesting, alternate [language] versions … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 20 Aug 2013 · 8,146 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleComparison of Radial and Axial Flow Chromatography for Monoclonal Antibody Downstream Processing at Bench and Pilot ScalesAli Demirci, Frank Leu, F. James BaileyAxial Flow Chromatography (AFC) is widely used for the purification of therapeutic Monoclonal Antibodies (MAbs). However, AFC columns can generate high pressure drops across the resin bed, preventing operation of the column at high flow rates especially at pilot or manufacturing-scales. Radial Flow Chromatography (RFC) was developed to provide lower pressure drops during chromatographic separations. In these studies, small and … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 25 Dec 2012 · 11,508 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRapid Recovery of Peripheral Oxygen Saturation in Hypoxic COVID-19 Patients With Ivermectin/Doxycycline/Zinc Multidrug TherapySabine Hazan, Adriana C. Vidal, Eleftherios Gkioulekas et al.Several combination therapies for the early outpatient treatment of COVID-19 were proposed by independent research groups at the onset of the pandemic during 2020 and 2021. In this observational study, we report on the outcomes of an off-label triple combination therapy, consisting of ivermectin, doxycycline, and zinc, with adjunct vitamin C and D3 supplementation, which was used on high-risk COVID-19 … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 3 Jul 2026 · 3,374 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImproving Classification and Clustering Accuracy of Palembang Duku Fruit Quality via CNN-K-Means IntegrationHenny Hartono, Francka Sakti Lee, Herlina Herlina et al.Duku Palembang (Lansium domesticum Corr.) is a leading commodity from South Sumatra with high economic value. The quality assessment process for duku has traditionally relied on manual visual inspection, which is subjective, time-consuming, and inconsistent, especially at large production scales. This study proposes an integrative framework combining Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and K-Means Clustering to improve the accuracy of classification … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 2 · 8 May 2026 · 1,475 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAuto Weight Dilated Convolutional Ensemble Network for the Severity Analysis of Lung Cancer in CT ImagesL. Sandhya, K. MarimuthuLung cancer is one of the world's leading causes of morbidity and mortality; improving patient outcomes requires an early and precise diagnosis. Lesion and tumor segmentation remains a challenging task in CT images due to their inherent imaging limitations, such as the small size of nodules, heterogeneous textures, blurry boundaries, and adjacent structures, leading to misclassification and difficulty in delineating … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 9 Feb 2026 · 1,541 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel River Meander Migration and Cutoff Model: A New PerspectiveYoussef Ismail HafezAccurate prediction of river meander migration is crucial for effective river management and operation, particularly in light of climate changes and human-induced interventions. Existing models often rely on single-equation approaches, such as bank erosion rate versus excess bank velocity or excess bank shear stress, which limit their ability to comprehensively capture the complex dynamics of meander evolution. This study presents … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 21 Mar 2025 · 7,683 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of Spring Wheat Varieties for Pest ResistanceRimma Meyramovna Ualiyeva, Mariya Mikhailovna Kaverina, Lyubov Nikolaevna Ivanko, Sayan Berikovich ZhangazinThe article is devoted to the study of spring wheat varieties cultivated in the steppe area of North-Eastern Kazakhstan and their resistance to the main pests. The dynamics of the number and phenology of spring wheat phytophages were investigated in relation to the varietal and climatic characteristics of agricultural production. Modern spring wheat varieties' resistance to the main pests was … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 23, Issue 4 · 12 Sep 2023 · 5,412 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRelationship between Laboratory Germination and Biometric Parameters of Betula jarmolenkoana Golosk. AgletsZhandos Rakymbekov, Kurmankul Abayeva, Daniyar Dosmanbetov et al.This study evaluates the relationship between laboratory germination and biometric parameters of aglets of the critically endangered birch tree species Betula jarmolenkoana Golosk (Yarmolenko birch).
