Neuropathic itch
(
NLM (Medline)
, 2019 , Article)
Neuropathic itch is clinically important but has received much less attention as compared to neuropathic pain. In the past decade, itch-specific pathways have been characterized on a cellular and molecular level, but their ...
Comparative Phylogenetic and Residue Analysis of Hepatitis C Virus E1 Protein from the Middle East and North Africa Region
(
Kowsar (Research Center for Gastroenterology and Liver Diseases, Tehran, Iran)
, 2019 , Article)
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a major public health problem in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region with an estimate of over 15 million chronically infected patients. However, molecular characterization of circulating ...
A technoeconomic assessment of microalgal culture technology implementation for combined wastewater treatment and CO2 mitigation in the Arabian Gulf
(
Institution of Chemical Engineers
, 2019 , Article)
A technoeconomic assessment (TEA) has been conducted of the feasibility of large-scale application of microalgal culture technology (MCT) to the combined mitigation of CO2 emissions from flue gases and nutrient discharges ...
A Bi-layered parallel training architecture for large-scale convolutional neural networks
(
IEEE Computer Society
, 2019 , Article)
Benefitting from large-scale training datasets and the complex training network, Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) are widely applied in various fields with high accuracy. However, the training process of CNNs is very ...
Use of rice husk as an effective sorbent for the removal of cerium ions from aqueous solution: Kinetic, equilibrium and thermodynamic studies
(
Desalination Publications
, 2019 , Article)
In this research, the sportive removal of cerium ions (Ce (IV) from aqueous solution by rice husk (RH) has been studied in batch mode at ambient temperature. The effect of operational parameters such as contact time, amount ...
Common Fixed Point Results of Set Valued Maps for Aφ-Contraction and Generalized ϕ-Type Weak Contraction
(
MDPI AG
, 2019 , Article)
The solutions for many real life problems may be obtained by interpreting the given problem mathematically in the form f(x)=x . One such example is that of the famous Borsuk–Ulam theorem in which, using some fixed point ...
Prediction-based delay optimization data collection algorithm for underwater acoustic sensor networks
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2019 , Article)
The past years have seen a rapid development of autonomous underwater vehicle-aided (AUV-aided) data-gathering schemes in underwater acoustic sensor networks (UASNs). The use of AUVs efficiently reduces energy consumption ...
