Kefir exhibits anti‑proliferative and pro‑apoptotic effects on colon adenocarcinoma cells with no significant effects on cell migration and invasion by Khoury, Nathalie

“…Our data suggest that kefir is able to inhibit the proliferation and induce apoptosis in HT‑29 and Caco‑2 CRC cells, yet it does not exhibit a significant effect on the motility and invasion of these cells in vitro.…”

Variational Auto Encoder Approach To Find Deferentially Expressed Genes by RAHIMAN, NABIL

“…The proposed method makes use of cluster distribution on every latent space and merged weights in the decoder to assign genes to a cluster. My results discovered new sets of genes that were not shown using state-of-the-art techniques and can properly rank the top genes based on their significance in making clustering.…”

Global, regional, and national progress towards Sustainable Development Goal 3.2 for neonatal and child health: all-cause and cause-specific mortality findings from the Global Burd... by Katherine R Paulson (8674293)

“…Optimal child survival metrics were developed by age, sex, and cause of death across all GBD location-years. The first metric is a global optimum and is based on the lowest observed mortality, and the second is a survival potential frontier that is based on stochastic frontier analysis of observed mortality and Healthcare Access and Quality Index.…”

Gene-specific machine learning model to predict the pathogenicity of BRCA2 variants by Mohannad N. Khandakji (13885434)

“…We trained the model on 80% of the expert reviewed variants by the Evidence-Based Network for the Interpretation of Germline Mutant Alleles (ENIGMA) consortium and tested its performance on the remaining 20%, as well as on an independent set of variants of uncertain significance with experimentally determined functional scores.…”

Investigating the Quality Combined Effect of Root Cause Analysis (RCA) in Quality Management in Manufacturing Firms by ALBLOOSHI, ROUDHA KHALID ABDULLA

“…Implementing a 6KV surge protector for higher-wattage lights significantly reduced defect rates by 0.5%. This improvement led to decreased warranty claims, cost reductions, and enhanced product longevity, ultimately reinforcing the company's commitment to delivering high-quality products that exceed the customer's expectations. …”
