چکیده
In this study, we propose a model which may assist in diagnosis of (AD) using T1 weighted MRI brain images. The proposed model involves construction of statistical features from multiple trans-axial slices from hippocampus and amygdala regions, which play a significant role in AD diagnosis. Features from multiple slices are then averaged, which resulted into a smaller set of relevant features. The reduced set of features enhances the performance of decision learning system, and takes less memory and computation time. Effectiveness of the proposed model is compared with recent voxel-basedmorphometry work in terms of sensitivity, specificity and accuracy. Experimental results on a publicly available MRI dataset showed that the proposed method outperforms the recent voxel-based-morphometry model.

Protective effect of curcumin and Curcuma longa extract on apoptosis of motor neurons in cultured spinal cord slices of adult mouse
Introduction: Since Curcuma longa extract and curcumin have been shown to be potent antioxidant agents, they were used in cultured adult mouse spinal cord slices to investigate whether they can inhibit apoptosis in motor neurons. Methods: Slices from the thoracic region of adult mice spinal cord were divided into four groups: 1. Freshlyprepared slices (time 0) 2. Control 3. Slices treated by cu...
متن کاملStudy of Reinforced Slopes Safety Factor Using the Inclined Slices Method
Stability of reinforced slopes is almost always carried out using limit equilibrium methods and controlled by the shear strengths of the slope materials and the extension force of reinforcements. According to limit equilibrium methods, the stability of slopes is assessed by dividing the whole failure wedge into several vertical elements. In order to determine the safety factor of the reinforce...

متن کاملEffects of Administration of Perinatal Bupropion on the Population Spike Amplitude in Neonatal Rat Hippocampal Slices
Objective(s) Bupropion is an atypical antidepressant that is widely used in smoke cessation under FDA approval. The study of synaptic effects of bupropion can help to finding out its mechanism(s) for stopping nicotine dependence. In this study the effects of perinatal bupropion on the population spike (PS) amplitude of neonates were investigated. Materials and Methods Hippocampal slices were...
متن کاملDeposition pattern and subcellular distribution of disease-associated prion protein in cerebellar organotypic slice cultures infected with scrapie
Organotypic cerebellar slices represent a suitable model for characterizing and manipulating prion replication in complex cell environments. Organotypic slices recapitulate prion pathology and are amenable to drug testing in the absence of a blood-brain-barrier. So far, the cellular and subcellular distribution of disease-specific prion protein in organotypic slices is unclear. Here we report t...
