Diet, Lifestyles, Family History, and Prostate Cancer Incidence in an East Algerian Patient Group
BioMed Research International, Volume 2016, Issue 1, 2016., 2016 Prostate cancer (PC) is the fourth most common cancer in men and the sixth leading cause of death in Algeria. To examine the relationship between lifestyle factors, including diet, and family history and PC risk, a case‐control study was performed in an eastern Algerian population, comprising 90 patients with histologically confirmed PC and 190 ...

Hybrid ZnO/TiO2 Loaded in Electrospun Polymeric Fibers as Photocatalyst
Journal of Chemistry, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015 Hybrid ZnO/TiO2 nanoparticles were applied as potential photocatalyst agents incorporated into electrospun fibers of enteric block copolymers. The resistance of fibers avoids aggregation and contributes to prolonged action of semiconductor nanoparticles under continuous light irradiation.

Micronutrients for cacao: Availability classes in two soil layers
Soil Science Society of America Journal, Volume 90, Issue 3, May/June 2026.Abstract Efficient management of soil micronutrients is crucial for the yield and sustainability of cacao (Theobroma cacao L.), especially in tropical regions. However, specific availability classes for copper (Cu), iron (Fe), manganese (Mn), and zinc (Zn), extracted by Mehlich‐1, had not yet been established for the crop in Brazil. This study presents,

Using Kalman Filters to Reduce Noise from RFID Location System
The Scientific World Journal, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014 Nowadays, there are many technologies that support location systems involving intrusive and nonintrusive equipment and also varying in terms of precision, range, and cost. However, the developers some time neglect the noise introduced by these systems, which prevents these systems from reaching their full potential.

Biometrical Journal, Volume 67, Issue 6, December 2025.ABSTRACT In multi‐state models based on high‐dimensional data, effective modeling strategies are required to determine an optimal, ideally parsimonious model. In particular, linking covariate effects across transitions is needed to conduct joint variable selection.

Approximating Sets of Symmetric and Positive‐Definite Matrices by Geodesics
Conference Papers in Science, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013 We formulate a generalized version of the classical linear regression problem on Riemannian manifolds and derive the counterpart to the normal equations for the manifold of symmetric and positive definite matrices, equipped with the only metric that is invariant under the natural action of the general linear group.

ChemPlusChem, Volume 89, Issue 9, September 2024.The development of an efficient strategy for immobilizing L‐asparaginase enzyme onto functionalized carbon xerogels is the focus of this work. The results reveal the importance of tuning the surface chemistry of the materials and prove the enhanced activity, higher affinity with the substrate, and reusability of L‐asparaginase achieved through ...

Sample‐Level Filtering Order for High‐Throughput and Memory‐Aware H.264 Deblocking Filter
International Scholarly Research Notices, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012 This paper presents a new sample‐level filtering order for the Deblocking Filter process of the H.264/AVC video coding standard to be used instead of the traditional block‐level order presented in previous works. This processing order allows a better exploration of the parallelism in the filtering process by reducing data dependencies in comparison to ...
