Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The article seeks to examine the internal and external factors that influenced the performance of banks operating in the Indian banking sector during the period 2000–08. The empirical findings from this study suggest that credit risk, network embeddedness, operating expenses, liquidity and size have statistically significant impact on the profita

Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to examine the extent to which demographic factors and corporate ethical value impact on ethical decisions of Malaysian accounting practitioners. Design/methodology/approach: A questionnaire survey was carried out to elicit opinions from accounting practitioners on corporate ethical values and ethical judgement

Effects of Positively Charged- and plasma-Treated Surface on Biofilm Growth of Various Subtypes of Staphylococcus Aureus and Pseudomonas Aeruginosa
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Biofilm study is important because approximately 65% to 80% of all infections are caused by biofilms and resistance against antibiotics is up to ten times more when bacteria are in biofilms. Biofilm models using in vitro model systems offer affordable and fast results albeit several limitations to mimic physiological environment for optimum microbi

A Review: Understanding Urinary Incontinence and Pelvic Floor Muscle Training Among Childbearing Women
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Urinary incontinence is one of the common conditions experienced by women all over the world. Although it is not considered a life-threatening situation, it could affect a woman’s physical, physiological, social, and reduce the quality of their life. Knowing about the disease and getting early treatment has a significant impact on improving the p

Dispersal Potential Index (Dpi) as Alternative Indicator for Coral Larvae Dispersal Potential
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Dispersal of coral larvae is influence by combination of multiple factors, yet comparisons are commonly displayed on two- or three-dimensional charts (i.e.: pelagic larvae duration vs. distance). Therefore, the present study implies the application of Dispersal Potential Index (DPi) based on the factors which influence the dispersal range and poten

Effect of Varying Thickness of Electroplated Nife Film on Magnetic Properties
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The thickness variations of NiFe based magnetic core and its effects on magnetic properties have been investigated. The thin film core material is fabricated by using electroplating that may have direct effect on the performance on magnetic device. In this work, the main interest is on varying thickness of NiFe film that is being used as magnetic c

Estimates of Glomerular Filtration Rate Based on Creatinine and Cystatin C Equations in Critically Ill Patients
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Introduction and Aim: Accurate assessment of renal function in the critically ill is a complex task. Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) is the best indicator to help physicians estimate kidney function and determine different stages of kidney disease. eGFR can be calculated using serum Creatinine (SCr), or serum Cystatin C (SCysC), age, bo

Estimates of Glomerular Filtration Rate: Comparison of Different Creatinine Based Equations
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Objective: Kidney disease is a worldwide health concern with an increasing number of patients and increasing mortality in the past 10 years. The Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) guideline advocates the use of estimated glomerular filtration rate equation (eGFR) to estimate renal function. We evaluated the performance of Cockroft Gau

Ensuring Sustainability: a Preliminary Study of Environmental Management Accounting in Malaysia
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Our study on environmental management accounting focused on three pertinent issues: the extent companies in Malaysia implement EMA, the association between environmental management accounting (EMA) and environmental reporting (ER) and the perceptions of management towards the development of EMA. Data was grated through a postal questionnaire survey

An Integrated Approach of Biomedical Image Management System
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Biomedical images, such as X-ray, CT scan, MRI, etc., are extensively used in diagnosis of diseases, research & teaching in medical science, administration & management of hospital, information for the third party like medico-legal situation & health insurance, and so on. An integrated and efficient biomedical image management system is
