Infant with Sudden, Large, post-Extubation Subglottic Cyst
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Background: Subglottic cyst in infancy is almost always associated with episodes of early life intubation. Most cases typically presented late, usually days to months after endotracheal extubation. We report a case of a subglottic cyst with different presentation than the norm. Case presentation: A prematurely born, four-month-old baby girl was on

Empowering Society for Better Corporate Social Responsibility (Csr): the Case of Malaysia
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This article presents a theoretical proposition based on stakeholder theory for better Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) practices, specifically in the context of Malaysia. The aim of this article is to argue the need for a government initiative to help empower local communities and transform them into legitimate and powerful stakeholders. An u

Preparation and Characterization of Polyhydroxyalkanoates Macroporous Scaffold Through enzyme-Mediated Modifications
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are hydrophobic biodegradable thermoplastics that have received considerable attention in biomedical applications due to their biocompatibility, mechanical properties, and biodegradability. In this study, the degradation rate was regulated by optimizing the interaction of parameters that influence the enzymatic degradat

Enhanced Handoff Latency Reduction Mechanism in Layer 2 and Layer 3 of Mobile IPV6 (Mipv6) Network
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Next Generation Networks (NGN) both static and mobile are expected to be fully Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6) based. Mobility in IPv6 (MIPv6) network was designed to provide Internet services to end users at anytime and anywhere. However, MIPv6 is not widely deployed yet due to handoff latency and other limitations leading to packet loss and Qu

The Association Between Sleep Apnea and Young Adults with Hypertension
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Objectives/Hypothesis: To study the association between sleep apnea and hypertension in a younger age group than previously studied, adding upper airway sizes at endoscopy as important compounding variables not often included in the past. Study Design: Case control. Methods: We analyzed data on sleep-disordered breathing (based on polysomnography t

Fuzzy Logic Based Handoff Latency Reduction Mechanism in Layer 2 of Heterogeneous Mobile IPV6 Networks
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Mobile IPv6 (MIPv6) is one of the pioneer standards that support mobility in IPv6 environment. It has been designed to support different types of technologies for providing seamless communications in next generation network. However, MIPv6 and subsequent standards have some limitations due to its handoff latency. In this paper, a fuzzy logic based
