A Novel Model of “Remedy and Elimination of Tuberculosis”
<p>Tuberculosis (TB), is one of the top ten causes of death worldwide. TB is commonly linked to poverty and creates poverty as it is the single largest cause of death in the 15-49-year-old age group in South-East Asia (WHO, 2017). It is also linked to the HIV population, and its leading cause of …

Novel model of cerebrospinal fluid dynamics based on hemodynamically driven cyclic brain compliance variation
This study provides a novel explanation for the CerebrQ-Spinal Fluid (CSF) flow pattern observed in phase contrast cine-MRJ studies. CSF dynamics has been traditionally explained as a bulk flow from the site of production to the site of absorption. Studies done with phase contrast cine-MRI show a …

"""Copulatory memory"": A novel model for the study of recognition in the adult male rat"
… interacted. This so-called ""copulatory memory"" model attempts to define a functional system which is characterized by changes in adult male rats' behavioral displays. These changes are a function of the male's recognition of a familiar female conspecific. In these studies, the male's recognition …

Human-Mouse Neural Crest Chimeras as a Novel Model for Human Melanocyte Biology in Development and Disease
… obstacle to overcome for the creation of disease models which allow the study of in vivo human cells. The two main barriers to donor cell survival are (1) having the capacity to respond appropriately to the xeno-environment and (2) competing with endogenous host cells. This works uses human-mouse …

Explaining suicidal ideation via psychache and the interpersonal-psychological theory of suicidal behavior
… White). Design: The current study compared two models predicting suicide-related ideation using structural equation modeling. The first model was the desire for suicide component of the IPTS and the second model was similar to the IPTS but included the construct of psychological pain. The method …

Myeloid cells induce neurofibromatosis type 1 aneurysm formation through inflammation and oxidative stress
… formation is completely unknown. Utilizing a novel model of Nf1 murine aneurysm formation, we demonstrate that heterozygous inactivation of Nf1 (Nf1+/-) results in enhanced aneurysm formation with myeloid cell infiltration and increased reactive oxygen species in the vessel wall. Using cell …

Intestinal cancer : linking infection, inflammation and neoplasia
… cellular targets, including DNA. The multistep model of cancer proposes that cancer is a genetic disease in which mutations are required in carcinogenesis. When this theory was championed, research focused on somatic mutations. The focus has broadened to include epigenetic mechanisms in changing …

Glial Changes and Role of Connexin43 in a Laser-induced Rodent Model of Retrobulbar Optic europathy
Purpose: To establish a novel model of rodent optic nerve damage in order to investigate glial changes occurring in retrobulbar portion of the optic nerve after the injury and to facilitate development of neuroprotective agents. Methods: Rats (200-250g) were first anaesthetised via intraperitoneal …

Business process model abstraction
Business process models are used within a range of organizational initiatives, where every stakeholder has a unique perspective on a process and demands the respective model. As a consequence, multiple process models capturing the very same business process coexist. Keeping such models in sync is a …
