Fetal lung maturity assessment: A historic perspective and Non – invasive assessment using an automatic quantitative ultrasound analysis (a potentially useful clinical tool)
( Elsevier , 2021 , Article)Immature fetal lung is associated with many adverse outcomes including respiratory distress syndrome and transient tachypnoea of the newborn. Several methods/tools have been used over several decades to assess fetal lung ... -
Ultrasound diagnosis of infections in pregnancy
( Elsevier , 2021 , Article)Pregnancy is a unique period in which several changes occur in the mother, to ensure that the semiallograft fetus is not rejected. Some of these changes decrease the immunity of the mother to infections. As such, some ... -
Amnioinfusion in severe oligohydramnios with intact membrane: an observational study
( Taylor & Francis , 2021 , Article)Objective: The objective of this article was to evaluate the outcome of transabdominal amnioinfusion in pregnant patients with oligohydramnios. Method: This is a prospective observational study involving 80 cases of ... -
Prevention of spontaneous preterm delivery–an update on where we are today
( Taylor & Francis , 2023 , Article)Spontaneous preterm birth (delivery before 37 completed weeks) is the single most important cause of perinatal morbidity and mortality. The rate is increasing world-wide with a great disparity between low, middle and high ... -
Immunisation against COVID-19 in Pregnancy and of Women Planning Pregnancy
( Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI) , 2023 , Article)Following reports of the first human SARS-CoV2 infection in December 2019 from Wuhan Province, China, there was such rapid spread that by March 2021, the World Health Organization (WHO) had declared a pandemic. Over 6.5 ... -
Islamisation of engineering education - A case at IIUM
( Horizon Research Publishing , 2020 , Article)Seeking knowledge and continuing education are very important elements in Islam. All Muslims (both male and female) are required to make sincere efforts to acquire knowledge for the benefits of themself and the society; ... -
Pavement condition analysis via vehicle mounted accelerometer data
( International Islamic University Malaysia-IIUM , 2020 , Article)Road anomalies and irregularities such as potholes and uneven surfaces are a common hazard in South East Asia and developing countries. Such hazards pose a threat to the safety and well-being of both civilians going about ... -
Estimation and measurement of effective line mobility on a non-deterministic thin plate excited by a piezoelectric patch
( EXTRICA , 2020 , Article)This paper derived the expression to estimate the effective line moment mobility of a non-deterministic thin plate under moment excitation by a piezoelectric patch actuator. The piezoelectric patch actuator is assumed to ... -
Hysteresis behaviour of different magnetorheological elastomer models: Modelling and simulation
( EXTRICA , 2020 , Conference Paper)Smart materials are materials by which their properties can be altered due to external stimuli such as temperature, pressure, and magnetic field. Magnetorheological Elastomer (MRE) is a type of smart composite material ... -
Development and Implementation of Energy-Efficient Magnetorheological Fluid Bypass Damper for Prosthetics Limbs Using a Fuzzy-Logic Controller
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2022 , Article)Walking behaviour in amputees with lower-limb loss is absent from shock-absorbing properties. A damper can be used to reduce the impact of ground reaction force (GRF) during heel strikes. Magnetorheological fluid (MRF) ... -
Magnetorheological elastomer-based variable stiffness flexible coupling for vibration isolation
( Canadian Science Publishing , 2021 , Article)Rotating mechanical equipment such as pumps and motors can suffer from unattenuated torsional vibration. The causes of such vibration range from imbalance within the rotating system to misalignment, or even operating at ... -
Suppression of Tremors in Parkinson's Patients Using a Dynamic Vibration Absorber
( Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH , 2022 , Conference Paper)Parkinson's disease is a central nervous system disorder, whose effects and symptoms are evident in the physical movement and appearance of the patient. The frequency range of 2-10 Hz is mostly where the balanced muscles ... -
