Radiation-induced enterocolitis: basic and applied science [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Surgery, 2003
We adapted and introduced in our laboratory a simplified animal model of radiation-induced enterocolitis. After a shielding of the parenchymatous organs, our dose-response studies revealed that 20 Gy x-ray radiation resulted in about 20% mortality and reproducible lesions in the terminal ileum and proximal colon.

The basic science of memory as it applies to epilepsy [PDF]

open access: yesEpilepsia, 2007
Summary  The mechanisms of memory delineated by the model of long‐term potentiation (LTP) are similar to those underlying epileptogenesis by kindling. Memory is impaired by seizures and epilepsy. High frequency neural activity is important in both memory formation and seizures.

IGBT Based DC/DC Converter

open access: yesSultan Qaboos University Journal for Science, 1997
This paper presents an in-depth analytical and experimental investigation of an indirect DC-DC converter. The DC-AC conversion is a full bridge based on IGBT power modules, and the AC-DC conversion is done via a high  frequency AC link and a first diode ...

Toxicology at the interface of basic, applied, and clinical sciences [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Toxicology, 2009
Toxicology, the study of the adverse eVects of chemicals on living organisms, represents an interdisciplinary science that requires both expertise on the chemical nature of the studied compounds and precise knowledge of the normal cellular mechanisms that can be compromised by toxic substances. In the clinical context, the contribution of toxicology is

A Comparative Analysis and Prediction of Traffic Accident Causalities in the Sultanate of Oman using Artificial Neural Networks and Statistical methods

open access: yesSultan Qaboos University Journal for Science, 1998
Traffic accidents are among the major causes of death in the Sultanate of Oman This is particularly the case in the age group of I6 to 25. Studies indicate that, in spite of Oman's high population-per-vehicle ratio, its fatality rate per l0,000 vehicles ...

Computer-Aided Design for Estimating Foundation Uplift on Expansion Soils

open access: yesSultan Qaboos University Journal for Science, 1999
This work presents a methodology to determine in-situ heave of foundations due to soil expansion. A total of 206 soil specimens from a semi-arid region (lrbid city in northern Jordan) were tested in the laboratory to produce a model for predicting the ...
