A simple liquid chromatographic method for the determination of gemifloxacin (CAS number 175463-14-6) in human plasma has been developed. An aliquot quantity of 1 mL plasma sample was taken and 0.1 mL internal standard was added and mixed. 1 mL methanol was added to it. The mixture was then sonicated for 10 min followed by 20 min centrifugation at

This research aimed at the recognition of the patterns for dengue disease patterns using Artificial Neural Networks (ANN’s). Real data was provided by Singaporean National Environment Agency (NEA), for academic purposes only. Obtained data was used to model the behavior of dengue cases based on the physical parameters of mean temperature, mean re

Introduction: The aim of this study is to compare the walking activity of a cohort of individuals before and after total ankle arthroplasty (TAA). Methods: Nineteen consecutive patients (ten males and nine females) with mean age of 58.72, selected for TAA between January and June 2006, were prospectively reviewed with the use of a dedicated ambulat

When performing a radiological assessment for a trauma case with associated head injury, a fragment of dense tissue detected near the craniovertebral junction would rapidly be assessed as a fractured bone fragment. However, if further imaging and evaluation of the cervical spine with computerised tomography (CT) did not demonstrate an obvious fract

INTRODUCTION & OBJECTIVE The IIUM Breast Centre is an accredited mammogram provider under the College of Radiology Subsidised Mammography Programme (CMP) from 2004. We wish to present an audit of the results on 1344 Malaysian women who had mammogram under the programme at the Centre from 2004 - 2008. METHODS All women who came for mammogram und

Tracheal obstruction can be due to tracheal stenosis or tracheal anomaly rather than from compression by pulmonary artery sling when both are present in a patient. Patient can present with signs and symptoms of airway obstruction without swallowing problems. We present a case of this rare condition.A child with airway obstruction secondary to trach

Introduction: Adrenal injuries are rare, as the adrenal glands lies deep in the abdomen, seemingly protected from blunt abdominal trauma. Computed tomography(CT) is the gold standard for evaluating adrenal gland injuries, where haematoma and active bleeding due to injury to the suprarenal vessels may be visualized using new multi-detector row CT (M

تُعدُّّ الأسرة إحدى المؤسسات الضرورية في المجتمعات الإنسانية؛ ولعلنا لا نجانب الصواب إذا قلنا بأنها أهم المؤسسات جميعاً. والحاصل أن الاعتناء بالأسرة إنما هو اعتناء بأمر المجتمع ككل، وإهمال أ

Strontium doped hydroxyapatite (Sr-doped HA) nanopowder has been synthesized using a sol-gel method. The concentration of strontium was varied at 2, 5, 10 and 15 mol%. The as synthesized powders were calcined at temperatures of 500 -900ºC. The calcined white Sr-doped HA powders were characterized using differential and thermogravimetric analysis (

Manufacturing sector in Malaysia is the main driver in the economy. Therefore, most of the universities in Malaysia have Manufacturing Engineering Programs. Actually number of Manufacturing Engineering Programs is higher than Industrial Engineering Programs throughout the country. The related departments in Higher Education Organizations make frequ
