A clustering approach for mineral potential mapping: A deposit-scale porphyry copper exploration targeting

This work describes a knowledge-guided clustering approach for mineral potential mapping (MPM), by which the optimum number of clusters is derived form a knowledge-driven methodology through a concentration-area (C-A) multifractal analysis. To implement the proposed approach, a case study at the North Narbaghi region in the Saveh, Markazi province of Iran, was investigated to discover porphyry ...

An Overview of Candiduria

Candida microorganisms frequently exist as saprophytes on the external genitalia or urethra, however, yeast in measurable quantities are found in <1% of clean voided urine specimens. The overall frequency of Candida infections in hospitals has increased by 200% to 300% in the last decade, such that in a general hospital 5% of urine cultures may yield Candida species, and in tertiary-care center...

An Overview of Novel Anticoagulants

Arterial and venous thromboembolism is one of the most common causes of death worldwide. For almost seventy years, heparin, low molecular weight heparin, and vitamin K antagonists have been widely used in the prevention and treatment of thromboembolic disorders. However, many of the limitations of these traditional anticoagulants have led to the search for and attempts to introduce better drug ...

Persistence of natural mineral fibers in human lungs: an overview.

Virtually all available data on persistence of naturally occurring mineral fibers in human lungs have been derived from studies of asbestos fiber loads. These studies indicate that, although both amphibole and chrysotile asbestos fibers are found in the lungs of the general population and exposed workers, amphibole fibers are universally present in disproportionately large and chrysotile fibers...
