Computing Irregularity for Features in Medical Images
ISBN: 9783838387635 / Angielski / Miękka / 228 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The irregularity of a lesion border has been identified as the most significant factor in the diagnosis of malignant melanoma. The objective of the research was to find objective computable measures of contour irregularity and to apply them to skin lesions. A descriptive definition of irregularity was formulated which defines irregularity in terms of the five attributes: departure from a typical sequence (deviation), lack of obvious description, lack of compressibility, lack of symmetry and lack of a rule for generating a sequence. Methods based on the Hidden Markov Models, the...

Quality Use of Generic Medicines
ISBN: 9783838383620 / Angielski / Miękka / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The provision of healthcare has traditionally been managed based on the philosophy that, where the patient is concerned, price should not be a hindrance. However, with the global escalating healthcare cost, governments in many countries have adopted ongoing series of cost containment attempts in an effort to spend their limited financial resources efficiently so that equitable access to healthcare can be provided. One of the many ways to control healthcare expenditure is to promote the use of cheaper generic drugs instead of the more expensive branded equivalents and this strategy...

Characterising the DNA Methylation Profile at a Neocentromere
ISBN: 9783838399317 / Angielski / Miękka / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This thesis was submitted as fulfilment of the requirements for a Doctor of Philosophy degree. This book chronicles the trials and tribulations of a Ph.D candidate undergoing research into centromere biology. Neocentromeres are a quirk of nature and arise after structural insult to a chromosome and are thought to contribute to the evolution of species. Neocentromeres are great models for centromere biology as the underlying DNA sequence is unique, unlike typical centromeres which are full of repetitive elements. Therefore, the goal of this thesis was to characterise and describe the role of...

Do adults need growth hormone?
ISBN: 9783843357357 / Angielski / Miękka / 204 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. GH deficiency in adults was unexplored until 1990s. We know now that adults do suffer from GH deficiency and they do benefit from the short-term GH treatment. However, up to now, we do not know whether all adults with GH deficiency need growth hormone replacement. Should this therapy be a life- long? Is it safe? This project was supposed to be a part of the intensive clinical research in the field of GH deficiency in adults and, hopefully, has contributed to better understanding of some of the concrete issues in this area. This book will appeal to endocrinologists, clinical researchers and...

Chronic Kidney Disease and RAAS Blockade: A New view of Renoprotection
ISBN: 9783845415239 / Angielski / Miękka / 252 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Despite an increasing use of ACE inhibitors (ACEIs) and angiotensin receptor blockers (ARB) by tens of millions of chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients around the world for reno-protection, we have continued to witness global pandemics of acute renal failure, CKD and end-stage renal disease. While the mechanisms for these global pandemics remain speculative, there is accruing evidence of iatrogenic renal failure from ACEIs and ARBs. Since 2005, we have published an increasing number of such reports from our center. More complimentary reports from around the world have surfaced in recent...

The BpT chelators were tested against human lung cancer cells in vitro and tumor xenografts in mice. The toxicity of Bp44mT and its effects on the expression of iron-regulated molecules involved in growth and cell cycle control were investigated. The results shown demonstrate the anti-tumor activity of the orally-active...
