GSID: Gzlcybs0emYJ
Y Kidane, R Stahlmann, C Beierkuhnlein - … monitoring and assessment, 2012 - Springer

Shifts in biological communities are occurring at rapid rates as human activities induced global climate change increases. Understanding the effects of the change on biodiversity is important to reduce loss of biodiversity and mass extinction, and to insure the...

Microgravity induces proteomics changes involved in endoplasmic reticulum stress and mitochondrial protection.

Scientific reports

Feger BJ, Thompson JW, Dubois LG, Kommaddi RP, Foster MW, Mishra R, Shenoy SK, Shibata Y, Kidane YH, Moseley MA, Carnell LS, Bowles DE.
PMID: 27670941
Sci Rep. 2016 Sep 27;6:34091. doi: 10.1038/srep34091.

On Earth, biological systems have evolved in response to environmental stressors, interactions dictated by physical forces that include gravity. The absence of gravity is an extreme stressor and the impact of its absence on biological systems is ill-defined. Astronauts...

Impact of Smoking on Nutrition and the Food Poverty Level in Tanzania.

Journal of poverty alleviation and international development

Kidane A, Mduma J, Naho A, Hu TW.
PMID: 27668188
J Poverty Alleviation Int Dev. 2015 Jun;6(1):131-149.

This study considers the effect of household cigarette expenditure on food poverty indicators in Tanzania. We first compare expenditure patterns as well as the household size of non-smokers and smokers. We find that the majority of non-smokers and smokers...

The Essential Properties of Yoga Questionnaire: Development and Methods.

Int J Yoga Therap. 2015;25(1):51-9. doi: 10.17761/1531-2054-25.1.51.

Yoga interventions have considerable heterogeneity, are multi-dimensional, and may impact health in different ways. However, most research reports regarding the effects of yoga on health and wellbeing do not adequately describe the components of the yoga interventions being used....

Working toward a sustainable laboratory quality improvement programme through country ownership: Mozambique's SLMTA story.

African journal of laboratory medicine

Masamha J, Skaggs B, Pinto I, Mandlaze AP, Simbine C, Chongo P, de Sousa L, Kidane S, Yao K, Luman ET, Samogudo E.
PMID: 29043198
Afr J Lab Med. 2014 Nov 03;3(2):253. doi: 10.4102/ajlm.v3i2.253. eCollection 2014.

BACKGROUND: Launched in 2009, the Strengthening Laboratory Management Toward Accreditation (SLMTA) programme has emerged as an innovative approach for the improvement of laboratory quality. In order to ensure sustainability, Mozambique embedded the SLMTA programme within the existing Ministry of...

Draft Genome Sequences of Pseudomonas aeruginosa Isolates from Wounded Military Personnel.

Genome announcements

Arivett BA, Ream DC, Fiester SE, Kidane D, Actis LA.
PMID: 27516516
Genome Announc. 2016 Aug 11;4(4). doi: 10.1128/genomeA.00829-16.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa, a Gram-negative bacterium that causes severe hospital-acquired infections, is grouped as an ESKAPE (Enterococcus faecium, Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Acinetobacter baumannii, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Enterobacter species) pathogen because of its extensive drug resistance phenotypes and effects on...

Image Zoom Completion.

IEEE transactions on image processing : a publication of the IEEE Signal Processing Society

Hidane M, El Gheche M, Aujol JF, Berthoumieu Y, Deledalle CA.
PMID: 27249829
IEEE Trans Image Process. 2016 Aug;25(8):3505-17. doi: 10.1109/TIP.2016.2571061. Epub 2016 May 26.

We consider the problem of recovering a high-resolution image from a pair consisting of a complete low-resolution image and a high-resolution but incomplete one. We refer to this task as the image zoom completion problem. After discussing possible contexts...

Surface modification of polyethylene terephthalate using PEO-polybutadiene-PEO triblock copolymers.

Colloids and surfaces. B, Biointerfaces

Kidane A, McPherson T, Shim HS, Park K.
PMID: 10915956
Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces. 2000 Oct 01;18(3):347-353. doi: 10.1016/s0927-7765(99)00160-5.

The initial step of thrombus formation on blood-contacting biomaterials is known to be adsorption of blood proteins followed by platelet adhesion. It is generally accepted that surface modification of the biomaterials with poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) substantially reduces protein adsorption...

Tubularized incised plate urethroplasty with de-epithelialized flap.

African journal of paediatric surgery : AJPS

Gupta AK, Sarda D, Kothari PR, Jiwane A, Kulkarni BK.
PMID: 19858655
Afr J Paediatr Surg. 2008 Jan-Jun;5(1):8-10. doi: 10.4103/0189-6725.41628.

AIM: To improve the results of tubularized plate urethroplasty by adding de-epithelized flap.PATIENTS AND METHODS: Twenty-five cases of hypospadias who underwent Snodgrass urethroplasty using de-epithelialized flap were studied. The minimum period of follow-up in this series was 1 year.RESULTS:...

Noncompaction of the ventricular myocardium in a patient with Behçet's disease showing multiple thrombus formations in the right atrium, inferior vena cava and right iliac vein: A case report.

The International journal of angiology : official publication of the International College of Angiology, Inc
