An Evaluation of Letrozole and Clomiphene Citrate Efficacy as Ovulation Induction Medication in Females with Polycystic Ovarian Condition
Abstract: Polycystic ovarian condition is the most common endocrinopathy in anovulatory infertile females. As a long-established conventional treatment for ovulation induction, clomifene citrate (also known as clomiphene) is still recommended to PCOS patients as their first line of treatment. Indian PCOS women are more prone to have high levels of clomiphene resistance due to the high frequency of insulin resistance . While letrozole has a high potential for ovulation induction, it …

Effect of Bone Marrow Derived Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation on Cerebral Metabolism of a 20-year-old Autistic Patient
Abstract: Autism is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by clinically significant impairment in social, occupational and other important areas of normal functioning. The autistic brain shows altered neurochemical metabolism, such as decreased glucose uptake, increased concentrations of lactate and reduced concentrations of N-acetyl-aspartate. Besides behavioral therapies and medications for autism-associated conditions such as seizures and gastrointestinal distress, there are no U.S. FDA approved pharmacological therapies to treat Autism’s core pathology. Stem cell …

Acute and Chronic Toxicity of Fluoride and Aluminum on Plant and Animal Models
Abstract: Ecotoxicological studies revealed aluminum (Al2SO4. 24 H2O) to be more toxic than fluoride (NaF) on a battery of test organisms (EC/LC50 of Al = 0.308 1.46 ppm; F = 116.6 232.8 ppm). During chronic exposure (Al = 3 ppm, F = 10 ppm for 60 90 days), there was reduction in growth parameters of organisms at different trophic levels in a food chain such as producers {dry weights (6.7 29.0) …

The Ames Test in Twenty-first Century
Abstract: Since the 19th century, industrial development has increased exposure to mutagens and possible carcinogens. In order to avoid these health risks, several techniques have been developed to recognize genotoxins. In the 1970s, Dr. Bruce Ames and colleagues, studying the histidine operon of Salmonella typhimurium, observed that histidine (−) auxotroph mutants were reverted to histidine (+) upon exposure to a mutagen. The researchers further observed that known carcinogens were mutagenic to …

Reliability-Aware Mathematical Model for Radiation-Hardened Satellite Communication Systems
Abstract: Satellite communication systems operate in radiation environments in which total ionizing dose (TID), displacement damage, and single-event effects (SEE) can progressively degrade electronic, optoelectronic, and communication components and can ultimately reduce link availability and mission reliability. This paper develops a Reliability-Aware Radiation-Hardened Satellite Communication Model (R-RHSCM) that mathematically couples the orbital radiation environment, accumulated radiation dose, component degradation, communication-link performance, single-event failure probability, redundancy, thermal effects, and adaptive mitigation. The …
