background: cox proportional hazard (cph) model is the most widely used model for survival analysis. when there are unobserved/unmeasured individuals factor, then the results of the cox proportional hazard model may not be reliable. the purpose of this study was to compare the results of cph and frailty models in breast cancer (bc) patients. methods: a historical cohort study was carried out us...

The antioxidant properties of coumarin derivatives using the 2,2ˈ -diphenyl-1- picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging assay were investigated by the application of Quantitative Structure Activity Relationship (QSAR) studies. The molecular structures were optimized and submitted for the generation of quantum chemical and molecular descriptors. Genetic Function Algorithm (GFA) was employed in m...

To calculate and evaluate wave scattering and penetration of electromagnetic waves in different biological tissues it is necessary to use a realistic model of the human body, with all tissues resolved and separately assigned with appropriate electric/magnetic properties. We report the development of a realistic 3D whole-body human model that has been adapted for simulation in CST software, cont...
