Use of toothbrushing in conjunction with chlorhexidine for preventing ventilator-associated pneumonia: A random-effect meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials
(Wiley, 2021)Objective The oral cavity with poor hygiene is a reservoir of a complex community of commensal and pathogenic bacteria. Improved oral hygiene (OH) may reduce the incidence of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP); however, ... -
COVID-19 and Respiratory Protection for Healthcare Providers
(Nofer Inst Occupational Medicine, Sw, 2021)This article has investigated the considerations of healthcare facilities to utilize reusable respirators as an alternative to disposable respirators during the COVID-19 pandemic. The decision to choose specific equipment ... -
Real-Time Performance of a Tactile Neuroprosthesis on Awake Behaving Rats
(IEEE-Inst Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2019)With the advancement of electrode and equipment technology, neuroprosthetics have become a promising alternative to partially compensate for the loss of sensorimotor function in amputees and patients with neurological ... -
Synaptic noise facilitates the emergence of self-organized criticality in the Caenorhabditis elegans neuronal network
(Taylor and Francis Ltd, 2018)Avalanches with power-law distributed size parameters have been observed in neuronal networks. This observation might be a manifestation of self-organized criticality (SOC). Yet, the physiological mechanisms of this behaviour ... -
Radial gradient and radial deviation radiomic features from pre-surgical CT scans are associated with survival among lung adenocarcinoma patients
(Impact Journals Llc, 2017)The goal of this study was to extract features from radial deviation and radial gradient maps which were derived from thoracic CT scans of patients diagnosed with lung adenocarcinoma and assess whether these features are ... -
Effects of surface sterilisation with green synthesised silver nanoparticles on Lamiaceae seeds
(Inst Engineering Technology-Iet, 2018)Nanoparticles have been used in many areas of biotechnology. In this study, an alternative surface sterilisation method was established for plant tissue cultures. Silver nanoparticles synthesised via green synthesis were ... -
Immobilization of Rubia tinctorum L. Suspension Cultures and Biomass Production
(Humana Press Inc, 2016)Plants are natural sources of valuable secondary metabolites used as pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, flavors, fragrances, colors, biopesticides, and food additives. There is an increasing demand to obtain these metabolites ... -
Psychophysical correspondence between vibrotactile intensity and intracortical microstimulation for tactile neuroprostheses in rats
(Iop Publishing Ltd, 2017)Objective. Recent studies showed that intracortical microstimulation (ICMS) generates artificial sensations which can be utilized as somatosensory feedback in cortical neuroprostheses. To mimic the natural psychophysical ... -
A novel vibrotactile system for stimulating the glabrous skin of awake freely behaving rats during operant conditioning
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2015)Background: Rat skin is innervated by mechanoreceptive fibers similar to those in other mammals. Tactile experiments with behaving rats mostly focus on the vibrissal system which does not exist in humans. The aim of this ... -
Conspicuity of Peripheral Zone Prostate Cancer on Computed Diffusion-Weighted Imaging: Comparison of cDWI(1500), cDWI(2000), and cDWI(3000)
(Hindawi Ltd, 2014)Introduction and Objective. Disadvantages associated with direct high b-value measurements may be avoided with use of computed diffusion-weighted imaging (cDWI). The purpose of this study is to assess the diagnostic ... -
Microhardness evaluation of enamel adjacent to an improved GIC sealant after different enamel pre-treatment procedures
(Ariesdue Srl, 2014)Aim This in vitro study was carried out to evaluate the microhardness of enamel adjacent to a glass ionomer cement (GIC) with high fluoride content used as a sealant (Fuji Triage, GC Corp., Japan) after laser, bur or air ... -
Minimum Spanning Tree Reflects the Alterations of the Default Mode Network During Alzheimer's Disease
(Springer, 2011)This study analyzes the connectivity pattern of the default mode network (DMN) in patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) in comparison with young and elderly controls using the minimum spanning tree (MST). This tree is a ... -
Asymmetric response properties of rapidly adapting mechanoreceptive fibers in the rat glabrous skin
(Informa Healthcare, 2013)Previous histological and neurophysiological studies have shown that the innervation density of rapidly adapting (RA) mechanoreceptive fibers increases towards the fingertip. Since the psychophysical detection threshold ... -
Modeling of atmospheric particulate matters via artificial intelligence methods
(Springer, 2021)Nowadays, pollutants continue to be released into the atmosphere in increasing amounts with each passing day. Some of them may turn into more harmful forms by accumulating in different layers of the atmosphere at different ... -
Knee Meniscus Segmentation and Tear Detection from MRI: A Review
(Bentham Science Publ Ltd, 2020)Background: Automatic diagnostic systems in medical imaging provide useful information to support radiologists and other relevant experts. The systems that help radiologists in their analysis and diagnosis appear to be ... -
An efficient and fast computer-aided method for fully automated diagnosis of meniscal tears from magnetic resonance images
(Elsevier, 2019)Menisci are structures that directly affect movement, so early detection of meniscus tears also helps to prevent progressive knee disorders such as osteoarthritis. Manual segmentation of the menisci and diagnosis of the ... -
Comparative proteogenomic analysis of right-sided colon cancer, left-sided colon cancer and rectal cancer reveals distinct mutational profiles
(Bmc, 2018)Right-sided colon cancer (RCC) has worse prognosis compared to left-sided colon cancer (LCC) and rectal cancer. The reason for this difference in outcomes is not well understood. We performed comparative somatic and proteomic ... -
Estimation of the proteomic cancer co-expression sub networks by using association estimators
