Dyslipidaemia and its Association with Fasting versus Non Fasting Lipid Profile Values
Abstract: Lipid profile is a panel of blood tests used as a screening tool for dyslipidaemia. Dyslipidaemia is defined as disturbances of cholesterol and triglyceride levels and recognized as risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. It includes total cholesterol, low density lipoproteins (LDL), high density lipoproteins (HDL), very low density lipoproteins (VLDL) and triglycerides. This study assesses the prevalence of dyslipidaemia among apparently healthy individuals in physically fit defence service personnel and …

Removal of Blotches and Impulse Noise in Gray Scale Images Using Non-linear Algorithm
Abstract: An image consists of artifact, which appears in an image that is actually not present in the original imaged object. An image artifact (noise) is sometimes the result of improper operation of the imager, and other times a consequence of natural processes or properties of the human body. Blotches (bulk noise) and impulses are the artifacts where blotch can be either bright or dark spots and impulse can be salt …
