Increased Complement Deposition on Red Blood Cells in Children with Sickle Cell Trait

Walter Otieno, Benson B. A. Estambale, Michael M. Odera, Collins O. Odhiambo, Joash R. Aluoch, Bernard Guyah, Stacey M. O. Gondi & José A. Stoute · Journal of Advances in Medicine and Medical Research · 2014

Aims: Immune-mediated mechanism, such as deposition of complement (C3b) on erythrocytes leading to enhanced receptor-mediated uptake by macrophages has been proposed to contribute partly to the destruction of non-infected cells leading to anaemia. The extent of complement deposit...

Corporate Fraud Tendencies Versus Initial Public Offerings (IPOs) Initial Returns Volatility

A. A. A. Bruce & P. M. C. Thilakaratne · Journal of Economics, Management and Trade · 2014

We examine the initial returns volatility of initial public offering by determining: (1) whether mispricing actually takes place during and after IPOs in Nigeria and Sri Lanka; (2) whether the mispricing (overpricing or underpricing) could constitute corporate fraud tendencies si...

Solution Procedure for Systems of Partial Dierential-Algebraic Equations by NHPM and Laplace-Padé Resummation

Brahim Benhammouda, Hector Vazquez-Leal & Arturo Sarmiento-Reyes · Journal of Advances in Mathematics and Computer Science · 2014

In this paper, we propose an ecient modication of a New Homotopy Perturbation Method (NHPM) to obtain approximate and exact analytical solutions of Partial Dierential-Algebraic Equations (PDAEs). The NHPM is rst applied to the PDAE to obtain the exact solution in convergent serie...
