The Effect of Soy Isoflavones on Steroid Metabolism by Amanda C. Swart (18153814)

“…In addition, 3βHSD2 was inhibited perhaps accounting for decreased A4 levels observed in females. The decreased DHEAS and A4 levels together with the inhibition of the 17,20 lyase activity of CYP17A1, may impact production of androgens in clinical conditions associated with androgen excess.…”

Comparative effectiveness of one versus two doses of COVID-19 vaccines in Qatar: Evidence of converging protection over time by Hiam Chemaitelly (439114)

“…</p><h3 dir="ltr">Results</h3><p dir="ltr">For BNT162b2, single-dose effectiveness against infection increased steadily from 9.9 % (95 % CI: 6.7–13.0 %) in the first two weeks post-vaccination to 71.5 % (95 % CI: 45.5–85.1 %) by month 3, closely approaching the 74.5 % (95 % CI: 72.9–76.0 %) effectiveness observed after the two-dose primary series. …”

Enhanced optical properties of <i>β</i>-Ga₂O₃-_<em>x</em>S_<em>x</em>S: A DFT study by G.B. Eshonqulov (22927297)

“…Here, we conduct systematic density functional theory calculations to study the effect of sulfur doping on the electronic and optical properties of <i>β</i>-Ga₂O₃. We find that the band gap of the material decreases with increasing sulfur content (from 4.81 eV to 1.59 eV), accompanied by symmetric shifts in both the valence-band offset and the conduction-band edge. …”

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. …”

The microbiome-lymphoma Axis: A systematic review and Meta-analysis of gut Dysbiosis pattern in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma by Sarah A. Elkourashy (21632903)

“…<h3>Background</h3><p dir="ltr">Gut microbiota has emerged as a critical mediator of immune homeostasis and cancer biology. Increasing evidence suggests that gut dysbiosis may play a significant role in the pathogenesis of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), the most common and aggressive subtype of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). …”
