Introduction

The urinary bladder is a hollow organ in the pelvis that stores urine for a temporary period until it is passed during urination. Bladder cancer is a common cancer affecting the urinary system; and bladder is the most commonly affected cancer site in the urinary system. Most of the bladder cancers originate at the urothelium, which is a layer of mucosa lining the bladder (cancer.net). It is very common in the regions of the Americas, Europe, and Asia. Squamous cell carcinoma is the second most common carcinoma. Approximately, 2% of bladder cancers are adenocarcinomas and 0.3% to0.7% are small cell carcinomas(Medscape).

The main goal of speech modification is the control of non-linguistic information of various speech signals, as, for instance, voice quality and/or voice individuality. The term speech modification is usually used to refer to the different modifications, which may be applied to the sound produced by people. (McAulay and Quatieri, 1986)
Speech modification is used in a big range of areas, such as speech synthesis, film and music industry, voice editing, dubbing, toys, chat rooms, games, communications (interpreting telephony, helium speech), voice pathology (voice restoration), high-end hearing aids, other applications (for example, confuse speaker identification systems).
The process of ...

Carbohydrates play a major role in maintaining and promoting human health: from the provision of energy to maintenance of the microbial composition of the gastrointestinal tract. Some of the functions of carbohydrates in the diet include the following: provision of energy, formation of various body structures, and sparing of other structural proteins from being used to obtain energy.
However, sometimes there is a need to reduce consumption of carbohydrates. For instance, whenever there is a need to reduce weight or to control blood sugar level, people often resort to the use of non-caloric artificial sweeteners. The sweeteners replace glucose in the ...

Introduction

In the past, agricultural production has relied on traditional approaches to enhancing farm production. For instance, farmers in the past used conventional approach such as the migration of birds to determine the climate conditions that were approaching. According to Zhang and Pierce (2013), farmers made planting decisions based on their experiences relating to the climatic conditions. However, traditional approaches to farming have severely resulted to a decrease in output because of the different and varying conditions that are beyond the comprehension of human experiences. As such, sensors have been developed for application in crop and animal faring with the goal ...

Introduction

The immunological disorders in an individual can occur due to three different reasons. This includes immunological diseases in an immunocompromised individual, or “autoimmune diseases”, or finally an immunological hypersensitivity that can lead to tissue damage.

Immunodeficiency diseases

Immunodeficiency diseases occur due to malfunctioning of the organs or cells in an individual. They are further classified as primary immunodeficiency (PID) and secondary immunodeficiency (SID).

Primary immunodeficiency disease

They occur when there is a direct defect in the immune system. They are further classified into eight groups depending upon the site of the defect.
Combined T and B deficiencies. Severe Combined Immunodeficiency (SCID) is an excellent ...

Nosocomial Infections

Nosocomial infections, also known as Hospital-acquired infection, occur when a patient acquires an infection while in a healthcare facility during treatment for other conditions. Such infections include bacterial and fungal infections and become severe in immune-compromised patients. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, Clostridium difficile and Enterobacteriaceae (carbapenem-resistance), are some of the bacteria that cause nosocomial infection. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates roughly 1.7 million hospital-acquired infections in the United States that lead to 99,000 deaths annually (Bennett, J. V., Jarvis, W. R., & Brachman, P. S., 2007).
In Texas, some of the activities carried out by the state to ...
