Small Hydro-Power Plants in Kenya: A Review of Status, Challenges and Future Prospects

Scenario and future prospects of microRNAs in gastric cancer: A review

Carcinoma of the stomach is one of the major prevalent and principal causes of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Current advancement in technology has improved the understanding of the pathogenesis and pathology of gastric cancers (GC). But, high mortality rates, unfavorable prognosis and lack of clinical predictive biomarkers provide an impetus to investigate novel early diagnostic/prognostic m...

Kenya: Development Status and Prospects

In vivo small animal imaging: current status and future prospects.

The use of small animal models in basic and preclinical sciences constitutes an integral part of testing new pharmaceutical agents prior to commercial translation to clinical practice. Whole-body small animal imaging is a particularly elegant and cost-effective experimental platform for the timely validation and commercialization of novel agents from the bench to the bedside. Biomedical imaging...

Current Diagnostic Status of Pheochromocytomaand Future Perspective: A Mini Review

Pheochromocytomas (PCCs) are rare neuroendocrine tumors. The current diagnostic tools are based on biochemistry and histopathology results, but heterogeneity of diagnostic markers, signs and symptoms of PCCs bring a lot of difficulties for these two current methods. Unfortunately microscopic understanding of PCCs is not adequate for its confident prognosis and management. There are data linking...

Synthesis, challenges and future prospects

tem for habitat mapping of coral reefs and seagrass beds by integrating satellite images and acousticand ecological sea-truth information. In the field of harmful algal blooms (HAB), our taxonomic and biological knowledge on the HAB species has been much expanded through the program, as exemplified by the identification of the causative species of paralytic (PSPs)and amnesic (ASPs) shellfish po...

Optimization of Hydro-Power Plants for Generation

A decision support system is presented that addresses optimal unit dispatch and load allocation in a multi-unit hydroelectric plant. The concept behind the optimization approach is explained. Estimates of the improvements this system can provide over existing plant operational methodologies are provided. Actual use of this system has provided gains of over 2% in plant performance.
