The applications of the Russian-English MT system at CETIS as an instrument for information and documentation are presented. Four principal points are discussed: the Russian-English MT service at the request of the customers; current awareness with the automatic translation of the tables of contents of Russian periodicals; SDI with automatically translated abstracts from Russian periodicals; au...

Abstract Background Obesity-related oxidation stress plays a key role in obesity complications; however, its relation to thyroid status is an area for further research. The study aimed assess function obese children and oxidative deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) damage. Results Fifty 40 normal weight were included . Anthropometric measurement, lipid profile, function, anti-thyroglobulin antibody, pe...

We consider the problem of determining material loss due to corrosion in a plate. Eddy current data are collected on one side of the plate with corrosion damage occurring on the opposite side. Our work is based on linearizing the relationship between eddy current loop impedance change with the loss profile. In this context, we show that eddy current data are sufficient to uniquely determine the...

A new experimental study is performed to determine the lateral extent of silicon implantation damage on diffusion in silicon. The experimental technique is designed to allow easy comparison between damaged and nondamaged areas to facilitate specific measurements. Junction depth is measured under stripes of varying widths that protect from implantation damage as well as at points that receive th...

Stalking is a common social problem, often driven by psychiatric disorder in its perpetrators and productive of psychological and social damage in its victims. Assessing and managing the risks in the stalking situation is a task that frequently falls on the mental health professional. The concerns of risks in the stalking situation are not confined to violence but include psychosocial damage, c...

This paper presents a new missing data detection algorithm that is robust to Pathological Motion (PM). PM causes clean image data to be misdiagnosed as missing data, resulting in damage to the image during restoration. The proposed algorithm uses a probabilistic framework to jointly detect PM and missing data. It builds on an existing technique of using five frames for detection instead of the ...

Diabetes is a metabolic disease which damage blood vessel. Damage in retinal blood vessel of the human eye due to effect of diabetes is termed as Diabetic Retinopathy (DR). This abnormality in the blood vessel will cause a leakage of blood from the vessel and forms a red dot. This is named as Microaneurysm. Microaneurysm in the retina causes a swelling of retinal tissue which in turn causes clo...

BACKGROUND Hypertension plays a key role in chronic kidney disease (CKD), but CKD itself affects the blood pressure (BP) profile. The aim of this study was to assess the association of BP profile with CKD and the presence of cardiac organ damage. METHODS We studied 1805 patients, referred to our Hypertension Centre, in whom ABPM, blood tests, and echocardiography were clinically indicated. Th...
