background and objectives: timely diagnosis of leptospirosis is essential for an effective treatment. large diversity of clinical symptoms has led leptospirosis diagnosis difficult. researchers have conducted many tests with wide-range of sensitivity and specificity to achieve novel diagnostic procedures which have higher sensitivity and specificity compared with previous tests and which are mo...

conclusions based on the findings, application of recombinant arcaga antigen for the detection of h. pylori infection is a simple, rapid, and brief non-invasive method. therefore, it can be suggested as an appropriate antigen for h. pylori detection kits. results we investigated caga protein, using the immunoblotting method in stool samples, which were already identified as positive by the appl...

background alcoholic hepatitis (ah) is an acute manifestation of alcoholic liver disease with high mortality rates. objectives our aim was to study the molecular mechanisms of ah. materials and methods the differentially expressed genes (degs) in liver between ah and control cases were identified by analyzing the gse28619 microarray data using t-test. the kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes...

an experiment was conducted to study wheat grain protein increasing through foliar application of nitrogen afterflowering. the rcbd design was analysed with three replications and four n-treatments as foliar application as(n0=0, n1=4kg.ha-1 urea, n2=8kg.ha-1 urea, n3=4kg.ha-1 ammonium sulfate). results showed that seed proteincontent increased significantly by foliar application of nitrogen. da...

Support vector machines (SVMs) using Gaussian kernels are one of the standard and state-of-the-art learning algorithms. In this work, we establish new oracle inequalities for such SVMs when applied to either least squares or conditional quantile regression. With the help of these oracle inequalities we then derive learning rates that are (essentially) minmax optimal under standard smoothness as...

BACKGROUND The ORACLE II trial compared the use of erythromycin and/or amoxicillin-clavulanate (co-amoxiclav) with that of placebo for women in spontaneous preterm labour and intact membranes, without overt signs of clinical infection, by use of a factorial randomised design. The aim of the present study--the ORACLE Children Study II--was to determine the long-term effects on children after exp...

objectives the overall goal of this study was to carry out a set of comparative analyses of arsr gene in plasmid r773 and bacterial chromosome from escherichia coli bl-21(de3). methods pdb and ncbi databases and chimera, mega4, clc main workbench software and 3d-jigsaw and embl-ebi servers were applied to perform this study. by using these software and servers, multiple analyses including deter...

Myofibrillar myopathies (MFMs) are muscular disorders involving proteins that play a role in the structure, maintenance processes and protein quality control mechanisms closely related to the Z-disc in the muscular fibers. MFMs share common histological characteristics including progressive disorganization of the interfibrillar network and protein aggregation. Currently no treatment is availabl...

Nowadays NOSQL databases are becoming more popular. Companies like Google, Facebook, and Amazon has created their own NOSQL databases based on their requirements. Different types of querying approaches are followed by different NOSQL databases, whereas traditional databases like MySQL, ORACLE, etc. follows SQL for querying. Most of the companies are shifting from traditional databases to NOSQL ...

BACKGROUND Recent advancements in omics measurement technologies have led to an ever-increasing amount of available experimental data that necessitate systems-oriented methodologies for efficient and systematic integration of data into consistent large-scale kinetic models. These models can help us to uncover new insights into cellular physiology and also to assist in the rational design of bio...
