Wavelet transform analysis of time series generated by the stimulated neuronal activity
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2007)
We have studied the stimulated discharge dynamics of fusimotor neurons by applying the wavelet transform technique and by adopting that the neuronal discharge dynamics is manifested by the random time series of interspike ...
A Systematic Review on Micronutrient Intake Adequacy in Adult Minority Populations Residing in Europe: The Need for Action
(Springer, New York, 2014)
This systematic review evaluated micronutrient intake inadequacy of ten micronutrients for adult ethnic minority populations residing in Europe. Pubmed was searched for studies, related references were checked and experts ...
Controlled-rate versus uncontrolled-rate freezing as predictors for platelet cryopreservation efficacy
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2006)
BACKGROUND: Cryobiologic variables responsible for cell injuries and freezing techniques applicable in medical cryopractice should be revised and/or reengineered for minimizing cryoinjuries and maximizing cell recovery. ...
Signaling pathways implicated in hematopoietic progenitor cell proliferation and differentiation
(Sage Publications Ltd, London, 2007)
The objective of this study was to investigate the signal transduction pathways associated with the clonal development of myeloid and erythroid progenitor cells. The contribution of particular signaling molecules of protein ...
A human origin type II strain of Toxoplasma gondii causing severe encephalitis in mice
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2006)
Despite its capacity for sexual reproduction and global distribution, Toxoplasma gondii has a highly clonal structure, with the majority of isolates belonging to three distinct clonal types. Congenital toxoplasmosis has ...
Combined Vision and Wearable Sensors-based System for Movement Analysis in Rehabilitation
(Georg Thieme Verlag Kg, Stuttgart, 2017)
Background: Traditional rehabilitation sessions are often a slow, tedious, disempowering and non-motivational process, supported by clinical assessment tools, i.e. evaluation scales that are prone to subjective rating and ...
Hematopoietic changes and altered reactivity to IL-17 in Syphacia obvelata-infected mice
(Elsevier Ireland Ltd, Clare, 2006)
Pinworm parasites commonly infect laboratory mice with high prevalence even in well-managed animal colonies. Although often considered as irrelevant, these parasites if undetected may significantly interfere with the ...
Contribution of comorbidities and grade of bone marrow fibrosis to the prognosis of survival in patients with primary myelofibrosis
(Humana Press Inc, Totowa, 2014)
The widely used current International Prognostic Scoring System (IPSS) for primary myelofibrosis (PMF) is based on clinical parameters. The objective of this study was to identify additional prognostic factors at the time ...
Mini-FLOTAC for counting Toxoplasma gondii oocysts from cat feces - Comparison with cell counting plates
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, San Diego, 2014)
Oocysts of Toxoplasma gondii represent one of the most common environmental contaminants causing the zoonotic infection toxoplasmosis. The aim of the present study was to compare the Mini-FLOTAC device with traditional ...
Investigation into novel thiophene- and furan-based 4-amino-7-chloroquinolines afforded antimalarials that cure mice
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2015)
We herein report the design and synthesis of a novel series of thiophene-and furan-based aminoquinoline derivatives which were found to be potent antimalarials and inhibitors of b-hematin polymerization. Tested compounds ...
