Geotechnical Performance of Dredged Material—Steel Slag Fines Blends by Malasavage, Nicholas

“…The source materials (100% DM, 100% SSF) were evaluated along with [Math Processing Error], [Math Processing Error], [Math Processing Error], [Math Processing Error], and [Math Processing Error] DM-SSF blends (dry weight basis), where the DM content is reported first. Key findings include that the 100% DM had a [Math Processing Error] of 27.3°, which increased to a peak [Math Processing Error] value of 45° for the [Math Processing Error] DM-SSF blend. …”

Independent and Combined Effects of Antioxidant Supplementation and Circuit Resistance Training on Selected Adipokines in Postmenopausal Women by Ayoub Saeidi (17331085)

“…In contrast, omentin-1, ghrelin, adiponectin, and FGF21 significantly increased in EG and EMG (all p < 0.05) after CRT. These findings suggest that Zataria Multiflora supplementation by itself has little effect on measured adipokines; however, its combination with CRT produced noticeable effects on circulating levels of these adipokines, even more than CRT alone. …”

Application of the electric resistance tomographic technique to investigate its efficacy in cuttings transport in horizontal drilling scenarios by Muhammad Saad Khan (16724634)

“…The results highlighted that the ERT technique is useful in situ tool for detecting solid particles in various cuttings transport scenarios (different drilling fluids, mass flow rates, and eccentricities). The findings also revealed that an increase in the liquid flow rate influenced cuttings transport. …”

Effect of AlN nanoparticle concentration in the electrolyte on corrosion resistance and mechanical properties of the electrodeposited composite coatings by Khan, M.S.

“…The surface morphology highlights the formation of well defined granural structure with the introduction of AlN nanoparticles into the Ni-P matrix, which leads to the enhancement in both corrosion resistance and mechanical properties. The findings indicate that the concentration of 0.4 g/L exhibits the highest corrosion resistance of 86.6% compared to carbon steel. …”

Whole-Genome Sequencing for Molecular Characterization of Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacteriaceae Causing Lower Urinary Tract Infection among Pediatric Patients by Hassan Al Mana (12794973)

“…The occurrence of antibiotic-resistant bacterial infections has increased significantly over the years. …”

Whole-Genome Based Molecular Characterization of Multi-Drug Resistant Enterobacter cloacae Complex and klebsiella aerogenes Isolated from Lebanon by Amayri, Sara

“…Enterobacter cloacae complex (ECC) and Klebsiella aerogenes, are Gram-negative nosocomial pathogens linked to different types of infections. The emergence of resistance to carbapenems, last treatment resort for multi-drug-resistant bacterial infections, led to the increased interest in carbapenem-resistant organisms. …”

Immunoprofile of childhood diabetes by Meritxell Espino-Guarch (15430868)

“…When transcriptomic data was interrogated, an imbalance between ITGA4/ ITGB1 was observed in all groups where CD49d showed increased expression. Associated with these findings, anti-inflammatory Treg cytokines including IL-10 were decreased in T2D patients and elevated plasma levels of IL-17, which contributes to the insulin resistance and inflammation were observed.…”

Genetic Deletion of DNAJB3 Using CRISPR-Cas9, Produced Discordant Phenotypes by Shadi Nejat (19457212)

“…<p dir="ltr">Several pathways and/or genes have been shown to be dysregulated in obesity-induced insulin resistance (IR) and type 2 diabetes (T2D). We previously showed, for the first time, impaired expression of DNAJB3 mRNA and protein in subjects with obesity, which was concomitant with increased metabolic stress. …”

DNAJB3 attenuates ER stress through direct interaction with AKT by Zeyaul Islam (5867387)

“…This down regulation of HSPs is associated with insulin resistance (IR) and interventions which induce the heat shock response (HSR) help to increase the insulin sensitivity. …”

Effect of Bentonite Permeation on the Fabric and Strength of Ottawa Sand by Mourtada, Dani Imad

“…However, resonant column tests on bentonite-treated dry mixed Ottawa Sand samples showed a decrease of the small strain stiffness modulus (Gmax) and thus a decrease in the shear strength of the treated soil compared to that of clean Ottawa Sand samples. …”
