We propose to apply the correlation between structure and function of gene products to curate information automatically extracted from biological literature. This can be achieved by automatically validating extracted information that satisfies the correlation, since it has strong evidence of being correct. We applied a semantic similarity measure (SSM) to identify a correlation between the modu...

The GHS is a United Nations Recommendations issued in 2003 which aims to enhance the protection of human health and the environment by providing an internationally comprehensible system for hazard communication. It is expected for countries to implement the GHS as soon as possible with a view to having the system fully operational by 2008. Capacity building projects are ongoing in many countrie...

The orexigenic and anabolic effects induced by ghrelin and the synthetic GH secretagogues (GHSs) are thought to positively contribute to therapeutic approaches and the adjunct treatment of a number of diseases associated with muscle wasting such as cachexia and sarcopenia. However, many questions about the potential utility and safety of GHSs in both therapy and skeletal muscle function remain ...

OBJECTIVE GH secretagogues (GHSs) elicit a variety of biological effects in several endocrine and non-endocrine target tIssues, including activation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis. The latter is mainly carried out through a central hypothalamic action; yet the possibility of additional effects directly at the adrenal level cannot be ruled out. The aims of this study were to evaluate...

Low-temperature series have been derived for the q-state Potts model on the Kagomé lattice (q = 3 and 4) and for the 3-state honeycomb lattice. The series are derived by the finitelattice method, with many additional terms obtained by noting the structure of the correction terms. Accurate estimates of the critical points are found, which confirm exact, but not rigorous results in the case of th...

Abstract Sandwich panels’ exceptional mechanical properties and low density, owing to their multifunctional characteristics innovative design, made them a popular choice in numerous industries. panels with cellular cores are known for energy absorption properties, which make effective absorbers high-impact scenarios such as accidents or explosions. For advancing research on sandwich panels, it ...

Buckling temperature prediction of a functionally graded piezoelectric (FGP) sandwich plate with lightweight core is studied in the present work. The composite made three layers. upper and lower layers are two different materials so that electrical mechanical properties smoothly varied through thickness based on power law distribution. Whereas, considered as hexagonal honeycomb structure or por...

We study the superconducting phases of the two-dimensional honeycomb lattice of graphene. We find two spin singlet pairing states; s wave and an exotic p+ip that is possible because of the special structure of the honeycomb lattice. At half filling, the p+ip phase is gapless and superconductivity is a hidden order. We discuss the possibility of a superconducting state in metal coated graphene.

the normal and lateral line cycloid scales of the native species garra rossica (nikol’skii, 1900), one of the most common and poorly known cyprinid fish in south-eastern iran have been subjected to the scanning electron microscopy technique in order to study their detailed structure. normal scale below the dorsal fin showed a clearcut demonstration between the anterior and posterior region with...

The creation of engineered 3D microtissues has attracted prodigious interest because of the fact that this microtissue structure is able to mimic in vivo environments. Such microtissues can be applied extensively in the fields of regenerative medicine and tissue engineering, as well as in drug and toxicity screening. Here, we develop a novel method of fabricating a large number of dense honeyco...
