When it is ethically justifiable to stop medical treatment? For many Muslim patients, families, and clinicians this ethical question remains a challenging one as Islamic ethico-legal guidance on such matters remains scattered...
The structural behaviour of prestressed high strength steel arched trusses is studied in this paper through experimentation and numerical modelling. Four 11 m span prestressed arched trusses fabricated from S460 hot finished...
The axial behaviour and design of hot-finished high strength steel tubular elements with internal prestressing cables, representing the chord members in prestressed trusses, are examined in this paper. A comprehensive programme...

BACKGROUND: Crohn's Disease (CD) is a chronic relapsing disorder characterized by granulomatous inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. Although its pathogenesis is complex, we have recently shown that CD patients have a...
Impact of quality of big data marketing analytics (BDMA) was analyzed, with special attention to the BDMA dimensions of technology and information quality, and the level of deployment on perceived market and financial...
Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a common complication of diabetes and a major cause of acquired blindness in adults. Mitochondria are cellular organelles involved in energy production which contain mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). We...
CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing is a promising technique for clinical applications, such as the correction of disease-associated alleles in somatic cells. The use of this approach has also been discussed in the context of heritable...
Despite analytical advancements, firms have yet to realize the full potential of big data marketing analytics (BDMA) because the poor quality data restricts customer predictions and insightful decisions. Technology and market...
BACKGROUND: Optimal management strategies for clinically localised prostate cancer are debated. Using median 10-year data from the largest randomised controlled trial to date (ProtecT), the lifetime cost-effectiveness of three...
Industry 4.0 contributes to the virtualization of production system and enhances capabilities. However, the adoption process poses substantial challenges for SMEs in emerging markets due to institutional voids, resources, and...
The President of the International Association for the Study of Pain established a task force on cannabis and cannabinoid analgesia to systematically examine the evidence on (1) analgesic pharmacology of cannabinoids...
Introduction: Injuries lead to cellulites or abscess formation, if neglected or improperly managed results in osteomyelitis or septic arthritis of foot structures. This is the report of isolated second metatarsal osteomyelitis...
