Reinfections in COVID-19 Patients: Impact of Virus Genetic Variability and Host Immunity by Fakhroo, Aisha

“…Reinfection was attributed to several viral and/or host factors, including (i) underlying immunological comorbidities; (ii) low antibody titers due to the primary infection or vaccination; (iii) rapid decline in antibody response after infection or vaccination; and (iv) reinfection with a different SARS-CoV-2 variant/lineage. …”

The role of type II FB (I):Tl+ defect in laser light generation and color image formation at the low coordination surface sites of AgBr: Ab initio calculations by Shalabi, A.S.

“…All relaxed excited states of the defect containing surfaces were deep below the lower edges of the conduction bands of the ground-state defect-free surfaces indicating that type II FB(I):Tl+ is suitable laser defect. The probability of orientational destruction of the two centers, attributed to the assumed saddle point ion configurations along the 〈1 1 0〉 axis, was found to decrease as the coordination number of the surface ions decreases. …”

A Modification to Enhance the Survival of the Island FDMA Flap by Adding a Skin Bridge by Al Lahham, Salim

“…We combined Foucher and Holevich characteristics to design a flap that promises to solve the problem. Methods: This is a case series that includes 9 patients where we describe a technique that has the potential to enhance the survival of the first dorsal metacarpal artery (FDMA) flap and decreases the rate of distal necrosis via addition of a 5-mm skin bridge to the pedicle and by avoiding tunneling. …”

A novel index based on planktonic copepod reproductive traits as a tool for marine ecotoxicology studies by Mohamed Bakr, Hussain

“…Based on these results, we developed a novel copepod reproductive trait index (CRT-Index) for use in marine ecotoxicology surveys and tested in some simple cases.We show that copepods are good candidates as models for ecotoxicology studies, in particular using reproductive traits (EPR, HS and NSR) because of their sensitivity to a wide range or pollutants.…”

Influence of natural gas composition on adsorption in calcite Nanopores: A DFT study by Elbashier E.

“…The nanopores absorbed up to 28 and 24 molecules of CH4 and CO2, respectively, and the adsorption energy decreased to −0.0062 and −0.0075 eV/Å2 for each. Although the nanopore was filled spatially by the molecules, its surface still has an affinity to absorb more gas molecules energetically. …”
