Measurements of differential cross sections dσ/dφ ∗ and double-differential cross sections d2σ/dφ ∗d|y| for inclusive Z boson production are presented using the dielectron and dimuon final states. The kinematic observable φ ∗ correlates with the dilepton transverse momentum but has better resolution, and y is the dilepton rapidity. The a

Objectives: To assess parents’ acceptability towards the use of dental therapists’ (DT) in providing treatment to children in private settings and to explore factors associated with their perception. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among 1260 randomly selected parents of 11 years old schoolchildren in Selangor. A self-administere

Compressive strength is the most important parameter in rock since all loads will be transferred and rest on the rock which is based on the load bearing capacity of rock in compression. However, obtaining the compressive strength or mostly measured, the uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) from the laboratory test requires certain standard and also

Background and purpose: Gender disparities in auditory brainstem response (ABR) results have been reported but the exact reasons remain controversial. Difference in head size between genders has been suggested but the literature is lacking, particularly at threshold levels. In this short communication, we compared ABR results between males and fema

Background Methanol extract (MECN) of Clinacanthus nutans Lindau leaves (family Acanthaceae) demonstrated peripherally and centrally mediated antinociceptive activity via the modulation of opioid/NO-mediated, but cGMP-independent pathway. In the present study, MECN was sequentially partitioned to obtain petroleum ether extract of C. nutans (PECN),

A measurement is presented of the associated production of a single top quark and a Z boson. The study uses data from proton–proton collisions at √s = 13 TeV recorded by the CMS experiment, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb−1. Using final states with three leptons (electrons or muons), the tZq production cross section is me

Context: Muntingia calabura L. (Muntingiaceae) exerts antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities, thus, it might be a good hepatoprotective agent. Objective: This study investigates the effect of methanol extract of M. calabura leaves (MMCL) on hepatic antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities in CCl4-induced hepatotoxic rat. Materials and met

Adopting a mixed-method approach, this study has conducted survey, interview and document review of transportation industry generally and aviation industry specifically. The findings of this study are divided into two categories. Firstly, we would summarise findings based on surveys of the roles of internal auditors on enterprise risk management (E

This presentations describes the portrayal and misrepresentation of the Muslims as depicted by Daniel Pipes. First it describes the brief biography and advent of Daniel Pipes. The main focus of this lecture is Daniel Pipes' misrepresentations of the Muslims in his major writings especially after the advent of September 11, 2001/

This paper analyses one of the intellectual heritages of the Malay society in the corpus of law; the Ninety-nine Laws of Perak. Specifically, it discusses the influence of Islam in the Ninety-nine Laws of Perak, This led to the development of the governance (tatanegara) of the Perak Sultanate. The functional approach of the anthropological study of
