BACKGROUND/AIM Almond hull is produced in high amounts and mostly used as livestock feed. This study was designed to examine the impact of almond hull powder (AHP) administration on lipid profile and antioxidant activities in plasma and liver in hyperlipidemic rats. MATERIALS AND METHODS As the first step, the antioxidant capacity and radical scavenging activity of AHP were determined using c...

pedological criterion affecting desertification in alluvial fans was investigated, for which the map of units was prepared by crossing maps of land use, geology, slope classes and grid layer created by the extension of et geo-wizards in arcgis 10.3. three indices of salinity, erodibility, and permeability of soil were considered and classified. weights of criteria and consistency ratio were cal...

This note (motivated by the STSM at the Imperial College London), is devoted to combining ontologically demarcated information with the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP; [4]) for assessment of offers during contract negotiations. The AHP is widely used [1], while an attempt at combining it with ontologies was reported in [3]. Here, the context for the AHP method is provided by the Agents in Gr...

Anosognosia for hemiplegia (AHP) is a lack of awareness about paralysis following stroke. Recent explanations use a 'forward model' of movement to suggest that AHP patients fail to register discrepancies between internally- and externally-generated sensory information. We predicted that this failure would impair the ability to recall from memory whether information is internally- or externally-...

Wildfires are one of the gravest and most momentous hazards affecting rich forest biomes worldwide; India is hotspots due to its diverse types human-induced reasons. This research aims identify wildfire risk zones in two contrasting climate zones, Wayanad Wildlife Sanctuary Western Ghats Kedarnath Himalayas, using geospatial tools, analytical hierarchy process (AHP), fuzzy-AHP models assess imp...

Cluster I neurons of the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN), which are thought to be pacemakers supporting circadian activity, fire spontaneous action potentials that are followed by a monophasic afterhyperpolarization (AHP). Using a brain slice preparation, we have found that the AHP has a shorter duration in cells firing at higher frequency, consistent with circadian modulation of the AHP. The AHP...

In hippocampal neurons, the firing of a train of action potentials is terminated by generation of the slow afterhyperpolarization (AHP). Recordings from hippocampal slices have shown that the slow AHP likely results from the activation of small-conductance calcium-activated potassium (SK) channels by calcium (Ca(2+)) entry through L-type Ca(2+) channels. However, the relative localization of th...

This research presents the results of the GIS-based statistical models for generation of landslide susceptibility mapping using geographic information system (GIS) and remote-sensing data for Cameron Highlands area in Malaysia. Ten factors including slope, aspect, soil, lithology, NDVI, land cover, distance to drainage, precipitation, distance to fault, and distance to road were extracted from ...

Let G be a (p,q) graph and A be a group. We denote the order of an element $a in A $ by $o(a).$  Let $ f:V(G)rightarrow A$ be a function. For each edge $uv$ assign the label 1 if $(o(f(u)),o(f(v)))=1 $or $0$ otherwise. $f$ is called a group A Cordial labeling if $|v_f(a)-v_f(b)| leq 1$ and $|e_f(0)- e_f(1)|leq 1$, where $v_f(x)$ and $e_f(n)$ respectively denote the number of vertices labelled w...
