Prognostic factor from MR spectroscopy in rat with astrocytic tumour during radiation therapy
(2015-01)
Objective:
To investigate the relationship between the tumour volume and metabolic rates of astrocytic tumours using MR spectroscopy (MRS) during radiation therapy (RT).
Methods:
12 healthy male Sprague-Dawley® rats ...
Self-similarity and non-Markovian behavior in traded stock volumes
(2015)
The volume traded daily for 17 stocks is followed over a period of about half a century. We look at
the volume of stocks traded in a certain time interval (day, week, month) and analyze how long that traded
volume keeps ...
Removal of Thin Clouds in Landsat-8 OLI Data with Independent Component Analysis
(2015)
An approach to remove clouds in Landsat-8 operational land imager (OLI) data
was developed with independent component analysis (ICA). Within cloud-covered areas,
histograms were derived to quantify changes of the reflectance ...
Prevalence of coronary heart disease risk factors in physical education students
(2015)
Abstract To establish the prevalence of coronary risk in physical education students, and compare risk between the genders and the years of course. We evaluated 246 physical education students using RISKO questionnaire to ...
MicroRNA profiling in the left atrium in patients with non-valvular paroxysmal atrial fibrillation
(2015)
identifying miRNAs that were significantly associated with non-valvular paroxysmal AF.
Methods: The RNA samples were isolated from healthy controls (n = 5) and patients with atrial fibrillation (n = 8). To
confirm the ...
Gemella Species Bacteremia and Stroke in an Elderly Patient with Respiratory Tract Infection
(2017-01-02)
Gemella species are part of normal human flora. They are rarely associated with infections. As opportunistic pathogens, they can cause life-threatening infection in individuals with risk factors. We present an unusual case ...
An endemic plant and the plant-insect visitor network of a dune ecosystem
(2019-04)
Network theory increasingly is used to quantify and evaluate mutualistic interactions, such as those among plants and their flower-visiting insects or pollinators. Some plant species have been shown to be important in ...
Measuring Workplace Discrimination among Sexual and Gender Minority Workers

Developing high performance concrete for precast/prestressed concrete industry
(2019-12)
High performance concrete (HPC) is a new class of concrete that has superior characteristics compared to conventional concrete. Despite of its superior characteristics, HPC is not widely used in local and international ...
Differential gene expression and gene variants drive color and pattern development in divergent color morphs of a mimetic poison frog
(2019-07-21)
Evolutionary biologists have long investigated the ecological contexts, evolutionary forces, and proximate mechanisms that produce the diversity of animal coloration we see in the natural world. In aposematic species, color ...
