Combining Fisher locality preserving projections and passband DCT for efficient palmprint recognition
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2015 , Article)
In this paper a new graph based approach referred to as Fisher Locality Preserving Projections (FLPP) is proposed for efficient palmprint recognition. The technique employs two graphs with the first being used to characterize ...
Generation of gene edited hiPSC from familial Alzheimer's disease patient carrying N141I missense mutation in presenilin 2
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2021 , Article)
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the major cause of dementia worldwide. Early-onset familial AD accounts for about 0.5% of all AD and is caused by single major gene mutations and autosomal dominant inheritance. An N141I missense ...
Magnetic mesoporous nanospheres anchored with LyP-1 as an efficient pancreatic cancer probe
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
Immobilization of a ligand that selectively interacts with cancer cells to nanomaterials can enhance their diagnostic and therapeutic efficiency. In this study, we firstly demonstrate the high expression of receptor for ...
Biomimetic trace metals improve bone regenerative properties of calcium phosphate bioceramics
(
John Wiley and Sons Inc
, 2021 , Article)
The bone regenerative capacity of synthetic calcium phosphates (CaPs) can be enhanced through the enrichment with selected metal trace ions. However, defining the optimal elemental composition required for bone formation ...
The effect of aging on the bone healing properties of blood plasma
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2021 , Article)
Objectives: Age-related changes in blood composition have been found to affect overall health. Thus, this study aimed to understand the effect of these changes on bone healing by assessing how plasma derived from young and ...
Multiscale structural evolution of citrate-triggered intrafibrillar and interfibrillar mineralization in dense collagen gels
(
Academic Press Inc.
, 2020 , Article)
The mineralized extracellular matrix of bone is an organic?inorganic nanocomposite consisting primarily of carbonated hydroxyapatite, fibrous type I collagen, noncollagenous proteins, proteoglycans, and diverse biomolecules ...
Nanotoxicology of dendrimers in the mammalian heart: Ex vivo and in vivo administration of g6 pamam nanoparticles impairs recovery of cardiac function following ischemia-reperfusion injury
(
Dove Medical Press Ltd.
, 2020 , Article)
Aim: The effects of polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers on the mammalian heart are not completely understood. In this study, we have investigated the effects of a sixth-generation cationic dendrimer (G6 PAMAM) on cardiac ...
Ranitidine Impairs Bone Healing and Implant Osseointegration in Rats' Tibiae
(
W.B. Saunders
, 2020 , Article)
Purpose: Ranitidine has been found to have an impact on bone metabolism by suppressing osteoclastogenesis. We hypothesized that the use of ranitidine would impair bone healing and implant osseointegration. This study ...
Intercalation of ionic liquids into bentonite: Swelling and rheological behaviors
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2016 , Article)
In this study, direct intercalation of three different green ionic liquids (ILs) having different salt and cation sizes into bentonite interlayer is investigated. The ILs covered in this study are: 1-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium ...
COVID-19 infection localization and severity grading from chest X-ray images
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2021 , Article)
The immense spread of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has left healthcare systems incapable to diagnose and test patients at the required rate. Given the effects of COVID-19 on pulmonary tissues, chest radiographic ...
