Introduction: Tetracera indica Merr., (mempelas paya) is used in Malaysia and other parts of South-Asia as a folk medicine to treat fever, flu, skin rashes, itching, piles, mouth ulcer, diabetes, and insects bites. Objective: The study has been carried out to screen the antidiabetic efficacy of methanolic extract (MeOH) of the leaves of T. indica i

Monolayer culture expansion remains as a fundamental step to acquire sufficient number of cells for 3D constructs formation. It has been well-documented that cell expansion is however accompanied by cellular dedifferentiation. In order to promote cell growth and circumvent cellular dedifferentiation, we evaluated the effects of Transforming Growth

This study aims to examine the influence of servant leadership dimensions (Empowerment, Trust, Healing, Integrity, Service, and Communication) and employee performance among the support staff in one of the Malaysian private universities. The study utilized Leader-Member Exchange (LMX) Theory to guide the study. Purposive sampling was employed in th

Purpose – The purpose of this study is to understand the reasons behind the different patterns of Sharīʿah non-compliant income (SNCI) disclosures amongst Islamic banks and, in particular, the extent to which Islamic banks make SNCI disclosures. The process involved in gaining and maintaining moral legitimacy forms the framework for this study.

We introduce the notion of a PT -symmetric dimer with a χ(2) nonlinearity. Similarly to the Kerr case, we argue that such a nonlinearity should be accessible in a pair of optical waveguides with quadratic nonlinearity and gain and loss, respectively. An interesting feature of the problem is that because of the two harmonics, there exist in general

This article proposes a novel fault-localization method that is based on the nonintrusive fault-monitoring (NIFM) techniques in high-voltage/extra-high-voltage (HV/EHV) power transmission networks. In this work, the fault signals measured at the utilities are extracted by the hyperbolic S-transform (HST) before going through the identification proc

Blackboard as a learning management system (LMS) is rarely used in Malaysian universities as it always seen as pricy. In addition, there is little research on blackboard usage among the students in Malaysia. Hence, this study adopted the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) and aimed to determine the relationship between usage of blackboard (perceived

ABSTRACT Ficus L. is classified under the genus in Moraceae family which is known as one of the largest genera of angiosperms with more than 800 species of trees, shrubs, or climbers in the tropics and subtropics worldwide. Since Ficus is known due to its edible fruits, they are acknowledged as the potential crop that can be commercialized especial

This review is conducted to understand the self-management experience among the patients throughout their cancer trajectory. Five databases were inputted systematic searches from February to April 2018. Several important themes emerged from the review, including their needs, facilitators, barriers, strategies, and provision of support towards self-

Introduction: Universal Newborn Hearing Screening (UNHS) aims for early diagnosis, intervention, and follow-up of hearing-impaired babies. One of the tools used for the UNHS is the Auditory Brainstem Response (ABR). The LS CE Chirp is the recent innovated stimulus to elicit ABR and it is able to provide most neural synchrony in combination with hig
