Abstract Introduction In patients with major depressive disorder, up to 68% present comorbid sexual dysfunction, which resolves in only 5% 30% of treated antidepressants. Several groups antidepressants negatively affect function. Objective The study investigated whether a newly developed amine transport inhibitor, IP2018, improves depression and erectile function the same dose range. Methods do...

Object detectors [5] locate objects of interest in images and have many applications including image tagging, consumer photography, and surveillance. Most existing object detectors take a fully supervised learning (FSL) approach, where all the training images are manually annotated with the object location. However, manual annotation of hundreds of object categories is time-consuming, laborious...

Among others effects, some brain diseases affect the integrity of some brain tissues and structures. One effect of these changes is the volume loss of some brain structures, therefore, by calculating the volume of the main brain structures and comparing them with the distribution of these volumes on a group of healthy subjects could be a good strategy for characterize markers associated to the ...

-------------------------------------------ABSTRACT---------------------------------------In this paper, a new design of wireless sensor network (WSN) node is discussed which is based on components with ultra low power. We have developed a Low cost and low power WSN Node using MSP430 and nRF24L01. The architectural circuit details are presented. This architecture fulfils the requirements like l...

in this paper, we present a new brain tissue segmentation method based on a hybrid hierarchical approach that combines a brain atlas as a priori information and a least-square support vector machine (ls-svm). the method consists of three steps. in the first two steps, the skull is removed and cerebrospinal fluid (csf) is extracted. these two steps are performed using the fast toolbox (fmrib's a...

A sound and complete Automated Prover for the Fuzzy Simplification Logic (FSL logic) is introduced and based on it a method for efficiently reasoning about fuzzy functional dependencies over domains with similarity relations. The complexity of the algorithm is the same as that of equivalent algorithms for crisp functional dependencies that appear in the literature.

Children of depressed parents exhibit high rates of emotion-dysregulation, characterized by excessive withdrawal or approach strategies toward the mother in infancy. The understanding of factors affecting the establishment of these behavioral deficits is limited. The current study utilized two genetic animal models of depression, the Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) and Flinders Sensitive Line (FSL) rat stra...

S-(2,3-bispalmitoyloxypropyl)Cys-Gly-Asp-Pro-Lys-His-Pro-Lys-Ser-Phe (FSL-1) derived from Mycoplasma salivarium stimulated NF-kappaB reporter activity in human embryonic kidney 293 (HEK293) cells transfected with Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) or cotransfected with TLR2 and TLR6, but not in HEK293 cells transfected with TLR6, in a dose-dependent manner. The activity was significantly higher in HEK...

Many Deaf Filipinos remain unemployed despite the increased attention level from hospitality industry. The study aimed to examine levels of awareness on culture and FSL skills within industry Zamboanga City foster sustainable employment - including quality service; it used a descriptive research design employing qualitative quantitative approaches. sample group was purposively selected 4 hotels...

Abstract Background and Aim Since the initial release of World Wide Web, capabilities web browsers have grown from presenting formatted documents to running complex programs, such as 3D game engines. The medical imaging community started adopt technologies that came with fifth major version HyperText Markup Language (HTML5). It led creation various web-based radiological applications cornerston...
