The performance of the parallel implementation of the local meshless numerical method in solving system of coupled partial differential equations is explored. Presented numerical approach makes the computation convenient for parallel implementation using OpenMP based parallelization. The numerical experiments are performed on the de Vahl Davis natural convection case, with superlinear computati...

The antimicrobial activity and minimum inhibitory concentration ( MIC) of various plant extracts in different solvents such as ethanol (98%), hexane (99%) and distilled water of plants traditionally used as medicines as Bidens pilosa L., Bixa orellana L., Cecropia peltata L., Cinchona officinalis L., Gliricidia sepium, Jacaranda mimosifolia, Justica secunda Vahl., Piper pulchrum, P. paniculata ...

aim : the aim of this study was to review cases of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (nafld) cases and to determine the prevalence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease as a cause of elevated alanine aminotransferase (alt) in healthy blood donors in the permian area and also assess risk factors of nafld such as body mass index (bmi) and correlation with metabolic syndrome in these subjects. back...

HIGHLIGHTS Salvia species have been suggested for their potential anti-cancer effects. candidissima Vahl. subsp. suppressed the survival of breast cancer cells. Breast cells nuclei become pyknotic and fragmented after treatment. The treatment group had greater levels M30-antigen level in MCF-7 cell line.

Serum and tissue hepatitis B virus (HBV) markers were compared in 35 alcoholic and 23 non-alcoholic subjects affected by chronic liver disease. Seventeen point one per cent of alcoholic and 21.7% of non-alcoholic subjects had HBV tissue markers, but not serum markers, for this virus. It is therefore concluded that showing the presence of HBV tissue markers permits a better aetiological definiti...
