Several reports and databases on genomic variants have associated variation in DNA sequences (≥ 1kb), or copy number variation (CNV), with susceptibility to common diseases. However, very few reports are found on hypertension and no study has been reported on CNV in prehypertensive and hypertensive young adult Malaysians. In this comparative cros

Measurements of the differential cross section for the Drell-Yan process, based on proton-proton collision data at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, collected by the CMS experiment, are presented. The data correspond to an integrated luminosity of 2.8 (2.3) fb−1 in the dimuon (dielectron) channel. The total and fiducial cross section measurement

Walkability is the basis of a sustainable city. Walking is the socially equitable mode most accessible to the masses. However, the advent of transportation technology has caused the desertion of the pedestrian space. Consequently, the phenomenon created a degradation of the pedestrian environment. The aim of the paper is to examine the characterist

Objective: To identify the existing literature on mothers’ perception towards the impact of expressing breast milk for their premature infant in the neonatal intensive care unit. Method: Guided by the PRISMA Statement review checklist, a systematic review of the Scopus and Web of Science database has identified 10 related studies. The articles we

Generalised obesity and central obesity are risk factors for Type II diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular diseases. Waist circumference (WC) has been suggested as a single screening tool for identification of overweight or obese subjects in lieu of the body mass index (BMI) for weight management in public health program. Currently, the recommended

Spirituality in entrepreneurship is an emerging area of interest which has begun to generate attention from management scholars. However, most research carried out in this area is from the western perspective. Until recently, there is dearth of research that gears towards spirituality in Islam and its contribution to the overall development of mode

As the majority of online networking on the Internet, opinion mining has turned into a fundamental way to deal with investigating such huge numbers of information. Different applications show up in an extensive variety of modern areas. In the interim, opinions have various pronunciations which bring along investigate challenges. The research challe

The investigation on the influences of alumina (Al2O3) particles in nano-sized retrieved from Aluminium (Al) dross was conducted on the tensile, thermal and wear properties of polypropylene (PP) composites. The thermal decomposition method was used to synthesise the micro α-Al2O3 particles from Al-dross, was followed by the wet-milling method to p
