Angiotensin-converting enzyme tag single nucleotide polymorphisms in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage
(2011)Objectives Studies investigating the association between angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphism and the risk of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) have provided conflicting results. Moreover, ... -
Application of fuzzy cognitive maps for cotton yield management in precision farming
(2009)The management of cotton yield behavior in agricultural areas is a very important task because it influences and specifies the cotton yield production. An efficient knowledge-based approach utilizing the method of fuzzy ... -
Application of Solid oxide proton-conducting electrolytes for amperometric analysis of hydrogen in H-2+N-2+H2O gas mixtures
(2014)Amperometric hydrogen sensors based on proton-conducting solid electrolytes of La0.95Sr0.05YO3, CaTi0.95Sc0.05O3 and CaZr0.9Sc0.1O3 compositions are prepared and investigated in the present work. The influence of the sensor ... -
Assessment of pressures and impacts on surface water bodies of the Mediterranean. Case study: Pamvotis Lake, Greece
(2013)The aim of the study presented in this article is to assess the ecological status of a surface water body in the Mediterranean using the methodological approach of Driver-Pressure-State-Impact-Response. Based on this ... -
Assessment of the Typology and the Trophic Status of Two Mediterranean Lake Ecosystems in Northwestern Greece
(2014)The objective of this study is the assessment of the typology and the trophic relevant water quality parameters in two Mediterranean lakes (Lake Ziros and Lake Kastoria) under the view of the WFD. Lake types were identified ... -
Backorder penalty cost coefficient "b": What could it be?
(2010)The classical economic order quantity (EOQ) model with planned penalized backorders (PB) relies on postulating a value for the backorder penalty cost coefficient, b, which is supposed to reflect the intangible adverse ... -

(2012)STUDY DESIGN: Prospective, descriptive single-cohort study. OBJECTIVE: To assess the incidence and severity of injuries to a professional ballet company over 1 year. METHODS: Data for an elite-level ballet company of 52 ... -
Clinical Outcome Study and Radiological Findings of Zweymuller Metal on Metal Total Hip Arthroplasty. A Follow-up of 6 to 15 Years
(2009)We report the clinical and radiological outcome of 99 Zweymuller metal on metal total hip arthroplasties in 84 patients followed up prospectively for a mean period of 9.5 (range, 6-15) years. There were 29 (34.5%) male and ... -
Closed-Loop Stimulation in the Control of Focal Epilepsy of Insular Origin
(2010)Background: Previous studies have shown that closed-loop or responsive neurostimulation can abort induced or spontaneous epileptiform discharges. Objective: To assess the effectiveness of a programmable cranially implanted ... -
Comparison of three resistor network division circuits for the readout of 4 x 4 pixel SiPM arrays
(2013)The purpose of this study is to investigate the behavior of a flexible SensL's silicon photomultiplier array (SPMArray4) photodetector for possible applications in PET imaging. We have designed and evaluated three different ... -
Copper Availability in an Acidic and Limed Zeolite-Amended Soil
(2014)In acidic soils, copper (Cu) availability may be high because of Cu impurities of various agricultural additives. This research was aimed at assessing liming and zeolite application as availability reduction methods. In a ... -
Correlation of actual efficiency of photovoltaic panels with air mass
(2015)Photovoltaic installations are already producing more than 5% of electricity in several European countries. Monitoring of photovoltaic parks produces a huge amount of data that are employed in checking the real-world ... -
DESIGN OF AN ELECTRODIALYSIS BRACKISH WATER DESALINATION PLANT USING RENEWABLE RESOURCES BASED ON STATISTICAL ANALYSIS OF CLIMATE CONDITIONS
(2012)The interest in desalination methods has always been high and recently renewed due to the shortage of water in many remote areas and the diminishing natural fresh water resources. With almost 97% of the total water being ... -
Development of a Simplified Model for Nitrogen Fertilizer Recommendation for Maize, Wheat, and Sunflower in Northern Greece
