Animal models play a critical role in diabetes research, aiding the comprehension of both type 1 and 2 pathogenesis assessment potential therapeutic interventions. These offer numerous advantages, including ability to induce stable hyperglycemia hyperlipidemia, minimal variability, opportunity study genetic mutations single gene effects. However, they also present limitations such as lengthy in...

Acute rhabdomyolysis and elevated transaminases during streptococcal pharyngitis are rare presentations. The proposed pathophysiological mechanisms include direct bacterial invasion toxin generation. Physicians should be aware of the association between these infections above-mentioned complications to facilitate optimal treatment patients. We present case a 18-years-old gentleman with β-haemol...

The skin provides the human body with protection and a major barrier to environmental assault. Caring for skin is sometimes an afterthought. In other words, if something isn't broken, don't fix it. However, in the case of the integument, nothing could be further from the truth. Intact skin is paramount to health and well-being. This article will review skin care, specifically, advanced skin car...

We propose a method to precisely model implementations of Instruction Set Ar-chitectures (ISA) using term rewriting systems (TRS). Our method facilitates understanding of important micro-architectural diierences without delving into low-level implementation details. More importantly, the use of TRS allows us to prove rigorously the equivalence of diierent implementations. We rst deene AX, a sim...

Six Sigma as a quality improvement framework has been gaining considerable attention in recent years. The hyperbole that often accompanied the presentation and adoption of Six Sigma in industry could lead to unrealistic expectations as to what Six Sigma is truly capable of achieving. In this paper, some strategic perspectives on the subject are presented, highlighting the potential and possible...

Delving into present trends and anticipating future malware trends, a hybrid, SQL on the server-side, JavaScript on the client-side, self-replicating worm based on two-stage quines was designed and implemented on an ad-hoc scenario instantiating a very common software pattern. The proof of concept code combines techniques seen in the wild, in the form of SQL injections leading to cross-site scr...

Over the past decade, however, power and energy have begun to severely constrain component, system, and data center designs. When a data center reaches its maximum provisioned power, it must be replaced or augmented at great expense. In desktops, power consumption and heat contribute to electricity costs as well as noise. Better equipment design and better energy management policies are needed ...
