International Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism   Figure 1: 1 st   time Hajj performers vs. previous performers. RESEARCH ARTICLE The Association of Previous Hajj Performance on the Diabetes Preparation during the Hajj Season    Methods:   A cross-sectional study, collected from the Pilgrimages with diabetes during the Hajj season. Baseline characteristics were collected by a formal interview and the measurements were self-reported. The primary outcome was to evaluate the patients' Hajj readiness and the association of the previous Hajj performance on this outcome.  http://www.peertechz.com/Clinical-Endocrinology-Metabolism/IJCEM-1-101.php  

Global Journal of Biotechnology and Biomaterial Science Figure 1: Average of tail length lymphocytes of people living nearby of Santiago River and lymphocytes of healthy young volunteers exposed in vitro to polluted waters. RESEARCH ARTICLE Use of Comet Assay in Human Lymphocytes as a Molecular Biomarker for Simultaneous Monitoring of Genetic Damage and Genotoxicity in Residents Who Lived Nearby the Santiago River, Mexico, in 2012 Most aquatic and health management authorities need assessing the potential genotoxicity of contaminated effluent to avoid the effects of a lot chemical agents found as environmental contaminants. Previous studies report the presence of some pesticides and heavy metals in waters of Santiago River and suggest a genetic risk for residents, who lived nearby this river, so it is important determine its mutagenic risk. The objective of this study was to use of comet assay in human lymphocytes as a molecular biomarker of genetic damage in residents ...

(a) Original image; (b) One stage 2-D DWT; (c) Two stage 2-D DWT.  Research Atricle Investigation of Significant Features Based on Image Texture Analysis for Automated Denoising in MR Images Introduction:   In magnetic resonance (MR) image analysis, noise is one of the main sources of quality deterioration not only for visual inspection but also in computerized processing such as tissue classification, segmentation and registration. Consequently, noise removal in MR images is important and essential for a wide variety of subsequent processing applications. In the literature, abundant denoising algorithms have been proposed, most of which require laborious tuning of parameters that are often sensitive to specific image features and textures. Automation of these parameters through artificial intelligence techniques will be highly beneficial. However, this will ind...

Carbon Nnano Tubes: Past, Present and Future Trends  Dr. Ayush Khare Nanotechnology is a group of emerging technologies in which the structure of matter is controlled at the nanometre scale, to produce new, interesting materials and devices with unique properties. Nanotubes belong to the promising group of nanostructured materials. Though there are many other tubes based on boron nitride and molybdenum but carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are most important group. Carbon nanotubes are among the most anisotropic materials ever produced. These molecular-scale tubes of graphitic carbon are one of the stiffest and strongest fi bers known. Besides, they have remarkable electronic, optical, thermal and chemical properties. For these reasons their interest in both academic and industrial areas is unique. The CNTs fi nd applications in the fi eld of conductive polymers, advanced composites, fi bers, displays, etc. They are characterized as single wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) and multiwalle...

Drug susceptibility profiles of Candida species isolated from the oral mucosa of HIV-positive West African patients using the TREK Sensititre system Mcarthur C*, Abrantes PM and Africa CWJ   Background:   Candida   infections are a common cause of death in immunocompromised patients. The prevalence and anti-mycotic drug susceptibility profiles of Candida species from Cameroon in Africa are unavailable. This study was prompted by an increasing incidence of treatment failure. Drug susceptibility profiles, necessary to improve treatment outcomes, is particularly important in countries where the sale of antimicrobials and antifungals is uncontrolled and resistance may emerge due to the indiscriminate use. http://www.peertechz.com/Conference-Organizations-Scientific-Institutions.php  

 Archives of Otolaryngology and Rhinology  Letter to Editor Image Guided Frontal Sinus Mapping: Our Technique Access to the frontal sinus is challenging and both external and endoscopic approaches are described in the literature. Where an external approach is indicated, a bicoronal osteoplastic flap procedure is generally preferred as this reduces fronto-ethmoidal recess stenosis and allows obliteration if required [1]. http://www.peertechz.com/Otolaryngology-Rhinology/AOR-1-102.php
