In 1980's Russian scientist Gorny found some short lived thermal anomalies from satellite image before earthquake in central Asia [1], Since then many scientists began to study this thermal anomaly with satellite data in China, Japan, India, Iran and Algerian earthquakes [2][3][4][5]. Ouzounov [6] used outgoing long wave earth radiation (OLR) data and studied the OLR anomalous variations prior ...

BACKGROUND Hair follicle stem cells (HFSCs) were reported to have multidirectional differentiation ability and could be differentiated into melanocytes, keratin cells, smooth muscle cells, and neurons. However, the functionality of HFSCs in bladder tissue regeneration is unknown. METHODS This study was conducted to build HFSCs vs bladder acellular matrix (BAM) complexes (HFSCs-BAM complexes) ...

Aluminum magnesium boride (BAM) and boron carbide (B4C) show great promise for engineering applications due to their high strength, hardness, impact resistance along with low mass density. Four BAM-B4C composite specimens (100% BAM, BAM + 10 wt% B4C, 20 50 B4C) produced by spark plasma sintering were characterized using electron microscopy energy dispersive spectroscopy. Mechanical properties s...

background: although natural disasters leave thousands of deaths and wounded, one of their most significant outcomes is empowering women as well as taking measures with special attention to women. this study aimed to analyze women’s cooperation and its affective factors in natural disasters and accidents. materials and methods: the study design is cross-sectional and descriptive. the study popu...

Many stem cell populations interact with stromal cells via signaling pathways, and understanding these interactions is key for understanding stem cell biology. In Drosophila, germline stem cell (GSC) maintenance requires regulation of several genes, including dpp, piwi, pumilio, and bam. GSCs also maintain continuous contact with cap cells that probably secrete the signaling ligands necessary f...

Hadoop-BAM is a novel library for the scalable manipulation of aligned next-generation sequencing data in the Hadoop distributed computing framework. It acts as an integration layer between analysis applications and BAM files that are processed using Hadoop. Hadoop-BAM solves the issues related to BAM data access by presenting a convenient API for implementing map and reduce functions that can ...

For better business performance or continuous process improvement of an enterprise, real-time measurement and analysis of the performance of managerial activities is essential. Business Activity Monitoring (BAM) which provides real-time access to key performance indicators or business processes is one of core elements for successful BPM system. Since performance measurement cannot be managed in...
