CEO characteristics and budgeting practices in emerging market SMEs
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2019)
Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) play an important role in the gross national product and employment in most emerging markets. However, little is known about their budgeting practices and, in particular, about the ...
In vitro antifungal activity of a medicinal plant extract mixture against candida species isolated from patients with oral stomatitis
(Kowsar Publ, 2019)
Background: Ankaferd Blood Stopper (R) (ABS) is a hemostatic product comprising a standardized mixture of Thymus vulgaris, Gly-cyrrhiza glabra, Vitis vinifera, Alpinia officinarum, and Urtica dioica. It is used to control ...
Investigation of the structural effects of radiotherapy dose rate on rat lung tissue: An FTIR imaging study
(Cell Press, 2019)
Radiotherapy is widely used to cure cancer. During treatment, ionizing radiation is applied by a linear accelerator to the area that is being treated. During this process normal cells can also be damaged by radiotherapy.
A cobalt arylphosphonate MOF - superior stability, sorption and magnetism (vol 55, pg 3053, 2019)
(Royal Soc Chemistry, 2019)
We report a novel metal-organic framework (MOF) based on a cobalt arylphosphonate, namely, [Co2(H4-MTPPA)]·3NMP·H2O (1·3NMP·H2O), which was prepared solvothermically from the tetrahedral linker tetraphenylmethane ...
A cobalt arylphosphonate MOF - superior stability, sorption and magnetism
(Royal Soc Chemistry, 2019)
We report a novel metal-organic framework (MOF) based on a cobalt arylphosphonate, namely, [Co-2(H-4-MTPPA)]center dot 3NMP center dot H2O (1.3NM center dot H2O), which was prepared solvothermically from the tetrahedral ...
The effects of carbamazepine, an anti-epileptic drug, on structure and surface roughness of healthy rat bone tissues: An FTIR microspectroscopy and AFM microscopy study
(Cell Press, 2019)
Carbamazepine (CBZ) which has been one of the most widely used and effective antiepileptic drugs for epilepsy treatment, is also used for the treatment of neuropsychiatric disorders, neuropathy and depression in recent ...
Feasibility study of metabolically supported chemotherapy with weekly carboplatin/paclitaxel combined with ketogenic diet, hyperthermia and hyperbaric oxygen therapy in metastatic non-small cell lung cancer
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2019)
Background: Previous evidence suggests that metabolically supported chemotherapy (MSCT), ketogenic diet, hyperthermia and hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) could all target vulnerabilities of cancer cells. This study aimed ...
Efficient unconstrained iris recognition system based on CCT-Like mask filter bank
(Hindawi Ltd, 2019)
In this paper, a new personal identification method based on unconstrained iris recognition is presented. We apply a nontraditional step for feature extraction where a new circular contourlet filter bank is used to capture ...
Multiple DGs for reducing total power losses in radial distribution systems using hybrid WOA-SSA algorithm
(Hindawi Ltd, 2019)
Distributed generators (DGs) are currently extensively used to reduce power losses and voltage deviations in distribution networks. The optimal location and size of DGs achieve the best results. This study presents a novel ...
The relationship between carotid intima-media thickness and serum secreted frizzled-related protein-4 and dipeptidyl peptidase-4 in diabetic patients with cardiovascular diseases
(Comenius Univ, 2019)
We investigated the association between carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) with clusterin (CLU), amylin, secreted frizzled-related protein-4 (SFRP-4), glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) levels, and dipeptidyl peptidase-4 ...
