OBJECTIVE: Oxidative stress is implicated in the pathophysiology of diabetes mellitus and its chronic complications. The aim of this study was to evaluate plasma antioxidant status in patients with uncomplicated type 2 diabetes, in order to understand the interactions between its components and the diabetic milieu. METHODS: Plasma samples were collected from 15 patients with type 2 diabetes receiving oral antidiabetic agents and from 18 healthy control
Read moreDigital learning objects are powerful units for building learning, education or training materials based on ICT recent developments. Not only text and photos, but also audio, video, and simulation units are used to build high quality e-lessons (available online), or blended learning resources. There are a large plethora of types of digital resources used in e-Learning content development, and for every category a particular set of criteria are used
Read moreThis paper describes the most important characteristics of cloud computing paradigm in order to be used as powerful arrows towards efficient approaches in teaching data analysis. Also High Performance Computing aspects are considered for solving large complexity data analysis problems. The usage of both Cloud Computing and High Performance Computing will assure not only an excellent framework for research but also a powerful and flexible environment
Read moreBackground: Recently, an increased interest in the identification of valuable possibilities for preserving the antioxidant properties of products obtained by thermal processing of fruits rich in bioactive compounds can be noticed. In this regard, an extensive analysis is necessary in terms of thermal processed products behavior in relation to various factors. The purpose of the present study was to assess the effect which processing and storage at

A geomorphological map synthesizes the way the relief forms, the way surface or sub-surface deposits are distributed, as well as the processes that affect relief. This paper aims to reveal the practical importance and the necessity of the digital
Read moreBased on a case study, this paper aims to be the first attempt, in the Romanian geography, to analyze the snow avalanche potential in one of the most representative glacial areas from the Fagaras Massif (Southern Carpathians - Romanian Carpathians), respectively Balea glacial area, located on the northern slope of the Fagaras massif, in the central glacial sector. Although this area is subject to a permanent snow avalanche activity and a potential
