Session recording is a critical requirement in many communications environments, such as call centers and financial trading organizations. In some of these environments, all calls must be recorded for regulatory, compliance, and consumer-protection reasons. The recording of a session is typically performed by sending a copy of a media stream to a recording device. This document lists call flows...

There have been a few epidemiological studies reporting VDR polymorphisms including Fok1, Bsm1, Apa1 and Taq1with breast cancer incidence and therefore risk. The results however are controversial, often due to smaller sample size. Concerning most of the studies were performed on Caucasian women, we conducted this comprehensive meta-analysis encompassing 38,151 cases and 47,546 controls (Fok1: 1...

Aims: The goal of the current study was to examine genetic variety finger millet genotypes based on physiological and biochemical parameters related drought.
 Study Design: Using various parameters, 20 germplasm lines were tested in investigation for resistance Place Duration Study: carried out from May August 2019 at G B Pant University Agriculture Technology's College Basic Science Human...

Job characteristics as well as a country’s institutional setting play an important role with respect to both the age at which older workers exit and the exit pathway used. The main research question of this study is to what extent retirement behaviour is determined by differences in institutions support for early exit and the level and design of social security benefits. This will be analysed u...

We propose a method that automatically tracks and segments living cells in phase-contrast image sequences, especially for cells that deform and interact with each other or clutter. We formulate the problem as a many-to-one elastic partial matching problem between closed curves. We introduce Double Cyclic Dynamic Time Warping for the scenario where a collision event yields a single boundary that...

Sperm DNA damage is prevalent among infertile men and is known to influence natural reproduction. However, the impact of sperm DNA damage on assisted reproduction outcomes remains controversial. Here, we conducted a meta-analysis of studies on sperm DNA damage (assessed by SCSA, TUNEL, SCD, or Comet assay) and clinical pregnancy after IVF and/or ICSI treatment from MEDLINE, EMBASE, and PUBMED d...

any studies have been performed to compare WHO and ADA criteria for detection of diabetic patients. This study aims to compare these two criteria in a community-based epidemiological survey in an urban population of Tehran, Iran. Materials and Methods: Subjects were chosen from among 15005 urban individuals, 3 years old and over, selected by cluster random sampling in the cross-sectional phase ...

P-450NF is the major enzyme in human liver involved in the metabolism of the calcium-channel blocker nifedipine. By screening a bacteriophage lambda gt11 expression library, a cDNA clone designated NF 10 with an insert length of 2.8 kilobases (kb) was isolated. This clone was sequenced and found to be highly similar in its overlapping section with sequences of two other cDNA clones previously i...

Previously we reported a broadly HIV-1 neutralizing mini-antibody (Fab 3674) of modest potency that was derived from a human non-immune phage library by panning against the chimeric gp41-derived construct N(CCG)-gp41. This construct presents the N-heptad repeat of the gp41 ectodomain as a stable, helical, disulfide-linked trimer that extends in helical phase from the six-helix bundle of gp41. I...
