Dietary Curcumin Nanoparticles Improve Growth Performance, Oxidative Status and Immune Response of European Seabass (<i>Dicentrarchus Labrax</i>) by Albandari Bin-Ammar (16381128)

“…Fish fed with CURNPS at various levels exhibited remarkable increase in digestive enzymes (amylase and lipase), immune markers (immunoglobulin G (IgG), lysozyme and phagocytic indices), and antioxidant enzymes (superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx)). A noticeable decrease (P<0.05) in malondialdehyde (MDA) and considerable upregulation of hepatic insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1) and interleukin-1beta (IL-1β) mRNA levels were found in CURNPs-supplemented fish in a dose-dependent manner. …”

Predicting infarction growth rate II using ANFIS-based binary particle swarm optimization technique in ischemic stroke by Afnan Al-Ali (16888695)

“…By analyzing the Pearson correlation coefficients and P-values, we selected clinically relevant features strongly correlated with the Infarction Growth Rate (IGR II), extracted after one CT scan. We compared our model's performance with conventional ANFIS and other machine learning techniques, including Support Vector Regressor (SVR), shallow Neural Networks, and Linear Regression. …”

Effects of vitamin E derivatives on the proliferation of KG-1 leukemic cells in vitro by Rizk, Sandra

“…XTT cell viability assay, which detects the presence of metabolically active cells, was used to assess cell proliferation. A decrease in proliferation of KG-1 cells was observed upon treatment with both forms of vitamin E derivatives; however, β-T3 was more potent than γ-T3 in promoting cell death with lower IC50 values. …”

“…Furthermore, the panel discussed the needs to define value concerning cancer treatment in Qatar, implement value-based models for reimbursement decision-making such as health technology assessment and multiple-criteria decision analysis, and promote patient education and involvement/feedback in developing and implementing cancer management guidelines.…”

Glycemic outcomes of Advanced Hybrid Closed Loop system in children and adolescents with Type 1 Diabetes, previously treated with Multiple Daily Injections (MiniMed 780G system in... by Goran Petrovski (129836)

“…HbA1c decreased from 8.6 ± 1.7% (70 ± 18.6 mmol/mol) at baseline, to 6.5 ± 0.7% (48 ± 7.7 mmol/mol) at the end of the study (<i>p</i> = 0.001). …”

Operation optimization of propane pre-cooled mixed refrigerant LNG Process: A novel integration of knowledge-based and constrained Bayesian optimization approaches by Roba Shady (22048043)

“…In addition, the optimized SEC in this study is 14.5 % to 38.6 % lower than those reported in the literature. At large-scale LNG production (10,000 tons per day), the reduction in the SEC is translated into an 18 MW decrease in compression power, saving approximately 4.7 million $ per year for each C3MR train. …”
