This study investigated the impact of using cow dung ash (CDA) as a partial replacement for ordinary Portland cement (OPC) in mortar. Mortar mixes are prepared by replacing OPC with CDA at varying levels: 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, and 30%. The chemical composition shows that it is composed primarily SiO2, Al2O3, Fe2O3, significant amount loss ignition. workability, hardened properties, microstruc...

BACKGROUND We observed that paclitaxel altered the pharmacokinetic properties of gemcitabine in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and limited the accumulation of gemcitabine and its metabolites in various primary and immortalized human cells. Therefore, we classified the drug-drug interaction and the effects of paclitaxel on deoxycytidine kinase (dCK) and cytidine deaminase (CDA)...

FACULTY OF ENGINEERING, SCIENCE AND MATHEMATICS SCHOOL OF ELECTRONICS AND COMPUTER SCIENCE Doctor of Philosophy by Perukrishnen Vytelingum The last decade has seen a shift in emphasis from centralised to decentralised systems to meet the demanding coordination requirements of today’s complex computer systems. In such systems, the aim is to achieve effective decentralised control through autonom...

We have previously reported that bryostation 1 (Bryo 1) induces differentiation of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) in vitro to a hairy cell (HC) stage. This study tests the hypothesis that Bryo 1-differentiated CLL cells are more susceptible to 2-chlorodeoxyadenosine (2-CdA) than parent CLL cells. A recently established EBV-negative CLL line (WSU-CLL) from a patient resistant to chemotherapy...

Resumen. La implementación exitosa de la Historia Clínica Electrónica (HCE) ayuda a mejorar la calidad de la atención de los pacientes, actualmente existe el problema de interoperabilidad entre las instituciones de salud, debido al uso variado de metodologías y tecnologías para su desarrollo. La Arquitectura de Documento Clínico (CDA) desarrollado por HL7 es un estándar de documentos para garan...

Dieser Artikel stellt unseren Lösungsansatz für ein sicheres Bürgergerät vor, das zur Kommunikation mit Behörden und öffentlichen Institutionen eingesetzt werden kann. Dieses Gerät nennen wir Citizen Digital Assistant (CDA). Der CDA ist vergleichbar mit einer Kombination aus Mobiltelefon und PDA und ermöglicht den sicheren und vertrauenswürdigen Zugang zu e-Government – Dienstleistungen. Zur Ge...

Neural processes that support individual differences in trait anxiety and the amount of representations in visual-spatial working memory (WM) are currently unclear. We measured the contralateral delay activity (CDA) in a lateralized change detection task to explore this question. Different levels of memory load were varied within each block. Despite their unimpaired behavioral performance, indi...

The XML-based Clinical Document Architecture (CDA) for document exchange defines a three-level document architecture with each higher level adding more specificity to the markup of the document. Such a layered architecture also meets the requirement for semantic processing of hierarchically structured clinical documents. The CDA supports shared care between hospital-based and community-based ph...

Correspondence discriminant analysis (CDA) is a multivariate statistical method derived from discriminant analysis which can be used on contingency tables. We have used CDA to separate Gram negative bacteria proteins according to their subcellular location. The high resolution of the discrimination obtained makes this method a good tool to predict subcellular location when this information is n...

The Health Level 7 (HL7) organization [1] has developed the Clinical Document Architecture’s (CDA) [2], an XMLbased document based on the Reference Information Model (RIM) [1], to provide a structure for clinical data exchange. The XML Schema Definition (XSD) language has been used to describe the CDA’s components and as a basis for the semantic conversion. Expressed in the Web Ontology Languag...
