Introduction: Physiotherapy is an important part of rehabilitation following total knee arthroplasty (TKA). However, the significant impact of pre-operative physiotherapy on the functional outcomes of arthroplasty surgery is still debatable. This study evaluated the effect of pre-operative physiotherapy on the early functional outcome of primary TK

Biotransformation can be defined as an application that utilized natural and recombinant organisms’ enzymes secreted by yeast, fungi and bacteria or whole cells as biocatalyst in synthesis of organic compound. Therefore, Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacterium has been chosen to be the biocatalyst for biotransformation of ω fatty acids extracted from M

This study aims to investigate the factors that atract and hinder the successful adoption of PPP in Malaysia. A questionnaire survey was used to elicit the perceptions of the public and private sectors concerning the positive and negative factors of PPP adoption in Malaysia. The 179 usable responses obtained were analysed using SPSS to rank the imp

هناك نوع من العلاقة بين المحاضرين والطلبة في الجامعة الإسلامية العالمية بماليزيا؛ حيث إن بعض الطلبة يرون أنه ليس لديهم دافعية في التواصل مع المحاضرين لأسباب شخصية وعلمية، وبعضهم يرى غير ذلك،

This study aims to analyse the impact of interest rate changes on the domestic and foreign banks and determine its monetary policy implications. The study employed the impulse response functions and variance decomposition analysis based on the Vector Autoregression model to study the responses of major balance sheet items, namely deposit and loan t

This study explores the economic integration among the ASEAN-5 economies over two sample periods; the pre-crisis period (1990 to 1996) and post-crisis period (2000 to 2006). Using the output-price approach, it attempts to determine if the nature of integration among these economies has changed due to the Asian financial crisis in 1997. In methodolo

Speech coding is a representation of a digitized speech signal using as few bits as possible, while maintaining reasonable level of speech quality. Due to growing need for bandwidth conservation in wireless communication, the research in speech coding has increased. Compressive Sensing (CS) is gaining a great interest because of its ability to reco

Sparse representations of signals have been used in many areas of signal and image processing. It has also played an important role in compressive sensing algorithms since it performs well in sparse signals. A sparse representation is one in which small number of coefficients contain large proportion of the energy. Sparsity is important also in spe

The present study was designed to evalurate the effect of dexamethasone on skin wound healing. Fifteen albino rabbits of 6.5 months age were used; an incision and suture was performed on the back skin of ten experimental rabbits previously treated with daily intramuscular injection of 2ml ampoule containing 4 mg dexamethasone for one month and on f
