Recently a number of calls have been made to mobilise the arsenal of political science insights to investigate – and point to improvements in – the social determinants of health (SDH), and health equity. Recently, in this journal, such a rallying appeal was made for the field of public administration. This commentary argues that, although scholarly potential should justifiably be redirected to ...

dna methylation is an important biological process involving in human disease such as cancer insomia and diabetes. bisulfite sequencing (bs-seq) with next-generation technology is an accurate method for measuring dna methylation. bs-seq data analysis is a considerable way to recognize methylated cytosines and several tools have been developed to analysis bs-seq such as bs-seeker, b-solana, brat...

apoptosis or programmed cell death is a gene regulated phenomenon which is important in both physiological and pathological conditions. it is characterized by distinct morphological features including chromatin condensation, cell and nuclear shrinkage, membrane blebbing and oligonucleosomal dna fragmentation. although, two major apoptotic pathways including 1) the death receptor (extrinsic) and...

In computational neuroscience, the continual need for new software tools has led to the creation of software in a disparate and ad-hoc fashion with considerable overlap but little compatibility between different tools. Much of the resulting software is made freely available, but it is not always clear that it is sufficiently mature in terms of domain coverage, validity, documentation or usabili...

Morphological processing of Polish is seriously hampered by the poor availability of general-purpose tools. This article presents an attempt to create such a set of tools following the de facto standard of the IPIC corpus. Currently, the package contains pieces of software able to perform the following tasks: text tokenisation, morphological analysis with heuristics for unknown words, division ...

Drug and health literacy is a key determinant of health outcomes. There are several tools to assess drug and health literacy. The objective of this article is to determine drug literacy level and its relationships with other factors using a single screening tool. A cross- sectional survey was conducted among 1104 people in Qazvin province, Iran. Based on the proportional-to-size method, partici...

Original scientific paper Heat treatment of active components of cold – moulding tools is a necessary operation to guarantee their functionality. The tools made by this method loose the required quality of durability and period of service and losses caused by their frequent exchange are high. One way we can stop it is by coating the active parts of pressing tools by thin, hard and abrasion resi...

Decision diagrams (DDs) have made their way into Petri net (PN) tools either in the form of new tools (usually designed from scratch to use DDs) or as enhancements to existing tools. This paper describes how an existing and established tool (GreatSPN) has been enhanced through the use of DDs provided by an existing open-source library (Meddly). We benchmark the enhanced tool and discuss lessons...
