Objective- To evaluate the role of greater omentum incorporation of coral in healing of the long bone defect in dog model. Design- Experimental in-vivo study. Animals- Sixteen adult mongrel male dogs weighing 26.2±2.5 kg, free of evident infectious or parasitic illnesses were used in this study. Procedures- The operative procedure was undertaken under general anesthesia. Radial bone was expo...

CORrelations And Logic (coral at http://www.insilico.eu/coral) is freeware aimed at establishing a quantitative structure - property/activity relationships (QSPR/QSAR). Simplified molecular input line entry system (SMILES) is used to represent the molecular structure. In fact, symbols in SMILES nomenclatures are indicators of the presence of defined molecular fragments. By means of the calculat...

In this paper we describe and evaluate issues that come up in the development of online monitoring systems which connect software tools to a running distributed application. Our primary intension was to elaborate how to deal with complex middleware mechanisms that cater for the middleware functionality in a way transparent to the users and tools. Our current implementation, called Coral, manage...

Nine coral survey methods were compared at ten sites in various reef habitats with different levels of coral cover in Kāne'ohe Bay, O'ahu, Hawai'i. Mean estimated coverage at the different sites ranged from less than 10% cover to greater than 90% cover. The methods evaluated include line transects, various visual and photographic belt transects, video transects and visual estimates. At each sit...

We report on the eeciency of queries formulated with the Hy + /GraphLog data vi-sualization system, a substantial application which utilizes the CORAL deductive database system. Hy + itself has been used in a number of application areas, including software engineering, network management, and the debugging of distributed programs. We focus on the translation of GraphLog queries to CORAL program...

Reef- building coral harbor communities of photosynthetic taxa of the genus Symbiodinium (zooxanthellae). The genus Symbiodinium is currently classified into nine genetic clades (A–I). Various corals harbor different Symbiodinium clades some show specificity to single strain. Coral and their zooxanthellae are sensitive to environmental stresses. In the Persian Gulf, coral reefs are subject to h...

MOTIVATION Homologous protein families share highly conserved sequence and structure regions that are frequent targets for comparative analysis of related proteins and families. Many protein families, such as the curated domain families in the Conserved Domain Database (CDD), exhibit similar structural cores. To improve accuracy in aligning such protein families, we propose a profile-profile me...

Observations of the condition coral reefs have been carried out in Spermonde waters from 2015 to 2018. The method used this observation uses Underwater Photo Transect (UPT), and data obtained is analyzed using CPCe (Coral Point Count with Excel Extensions) software. results show that percentage cover has increased year year. live was 19.64%, 23.60 2016, 23.72% 2017, 27.83% increase thought occu...

This study used a reef-up approach to map coral reef benthos, substrates and bathymetry, with high spatial resolution hyperspectral image data. It investigated a physics-based inversion method for mapping coral reef benthos and substrates using readily available software: Hydrolight and ENVI. Compact Airborne Spectrographic Imager (CASI) data were acquired over Heron Reef in July 2002. The spec...
