A multiwavelength generation in a random distributed feedback fiber laser based on hybrid Raman and erbium gain and a Lyot all-fiber spectral filter is demonstrated for the first time. The use of erbium-doped fiber allows a multi-wavelength generation to be achieved at lower pump powers in comparison with random fiber lasers based on Raman gain onl

This study was carried out to evaluate the long-term effect on the donor side of the foot and ankle following vascularized fibular graft resection in children. Eight patients underwent resection of the fibula for the purpose of a vascularized fibular graft by a surgical team who practiced leaving at least 6 cm residual distal fibula. The age of the

Concurrent use of methamphetamine and morphine could give a synergistic effect, where it produce greater rewarding effects, and antagonize the side effects of each other, causing it to have a greater potential to be abused. This poly-drug abuse may lead to behavioral sensitization shown by stereotype behavior. The aim of this study is to compare th

It is undeniable that every civilization has a symbol that makes it distinct from other civilizations. It is also undeniable that many civilizations have passed and their symbols disappeared but the Islamic civilization and its symbol are endurable. The symbol of Islamic civilization is the mosque. It is one of the oldest institutions that continue

Preoperative templating is a crucial step in total knee arthroplasty (TKA). This study was aimed to assess the accuracy of manual templating is reliable with the size for total TKA. Preoperative was performed on 100 patients prior to TKA. The acetate templating (Nexgen®, Zimmer®, 20% magnification) was used in this study. Magnification of radiogr

Porcine gelatine is a common adulterant found in edible bird’s nests (EBNs) used to increase the net weight prior to sale. This study aimed to develop indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) for porcine gelatine adulteration using anti-peptide polyclonal antibodies. Three indirect ELISAs were developed (PAB1, 2 and 3), which had limi

The integration of smartphone applications with the increasingly growing influence of artificial intelligence provides users with new ways to do about anything and allows users to be practical. In this paper, a mobile application to identify the ripeness of banana fruits is built by implementing a computer vision technique. Image classification is

Introduction: Plantar foot pressure has been widely used in managing foot-related disease in developed countries for the past 2 decades. However, in Malaysia, it is still at its infancy. Studies showed that the normal values are not affected by gender and body mass index (BMI), but vary between one race to another. Currently, to the best of authorâ

Introduction and hypothesis The aim of this study was to lookfor possible predictors preoperatively for the development of de novo stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in urodynamically continent women who underwent pelvic reconstructive surgery(PRS). Materials and methods Medical records of 637 continent women who underwent PRS for severe prolapse fr

This paper reports on the results of an exploratory factor analysis procedure applied on the elearning readiness data obtained from a survey of four hundred and seventy-nine (N = 479) teachers from secondary schools in Nablus, Palestine. The data were drawn from a 23-item Likert questionnaire measuring e-learning readiness based on Chapnick's c
