Although the relationship between aging and cognitive decline is well established, there is substantial individual variability in the degree of cognitive decline in older adults. The present study investigates whether variability in cognitive performance in community-dwelling older adults is related to the presence of whole brain or tract-specific

Identifying early life stages of fishes to the species level is one of the challenging task for the taxonomist as the information on key morphological characters are overlapping between genetically closer individuals. Universal DNA barcode (cytochrome oxidase C subunit 1) gene sequence helped tremendously in species level identification of early li

Meminta dan memberi nasihat merupakan tindakan linguistik yang kompleks serta memerlukan pengamatan terhadap norma-norma kesantunan budaya tertentu ketika melaksanakannya lebih-lebih lagi dalam rancangan bual bicara radio berorentasikan panggilan masuk (phone-in).

An attempt was made to revise the molecular phylogeny of extant xiphosurans (Horseshoe crabs) using universal barcode gene cytochrome oxidase C subunit 1. All four extant horseshoe crab species namely Limulus polyphemus (American horseshoe crab), Tachypleus gigas, T. tridentatus and Carcinoscorpius rotundicauda (Asian conspecifics) together with pr

Biodegradable polymers have been extensively studied in order to substitute the synthetic polymers since they are non-biodegradable which is harmful to environment. Polycaprolactone (PCL) could be a good candidate to substitute synthetic polymer since it can be slowly degraded by microbes. PCL was synthesized by ring-opening polymerization of -c

An acoustic energy harvester using Helmholtz resonator with piezoelectric circular diaphragm has been studied using COMSOL Multiphysics 5.1. In this paper, multiple designs considerations for MEMS Helmholtz resonator and piezoelectric circular diaphragm including the length and radius of the tube, the radius of the cavity and the thickness of the c

This retrospective review aimed to examine the relationship between preoperative pulmonary function and the Cobb angle, location of apical vertebrae and age in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS). To our knowledge, there have been no detailed analyses of preoperative pulmonary function in relation to these three factors in AIS. METHODS A total of
