A slow but steady nanoLuc: R162A mutation results in a decreased, but stable, nanoLuc activity by Wesam S. Ahmed (10170053)

“…In this regard, engineering of brighter bioluminescent proteins, i.e. luciferases, has played a significant role. This is acutely exemplified by the engineering of the NLuc <u>luciferase</u>, which is small in size and displays much enhanced bioluminescence and<u> thermal stability</u> compared to previously available luciferases. …”

Data-driven discovery of Tsallis-like distribution using symbolic regression in high-energy physics by Nour Makke (19160749)

“…<p dir="ltr">The application of atificial intelligence (AI) in fundamental physics has faced limitations due to its inherently uninterpretable nature, which is less conducive to solving physical problems where natural phenomena are expressed in human-understandable language, i.e. mathematical equations. Fortunately, there exists a form of interpretable AI that aligns seamlessly with this requirement, namely, symbolic regression (SR), which learns mathematical equations directly from data. …”

Estimating hydrogen absorption energy on different metal hydrides using Gaussian process regression approach by Majedeh Gheytanzadeh (17541927)

“…<p dir="ltr">Hydrogen is a promising alternative energy source due to its significantly high energy density. Also, hydrogen can be transformed into electricity in energy systems such as fuel cells. …”

The epidemiology of hepatitis C virus in Central Asia: Systematic review, meta-analyses, and meta-regression analyses by Welathanthrige S. P. Botheju (18618643)

“…Across CA, the pooled mean prevalence was 13.5% (95%CI: 10.9–16.4%) among non-specific clinical populations, 31.6% (95%CI: 25.8–37.7%) among populations with liver-related conditions, and 51.3% (95%CI: 46.9–55.6%) among people who inject drugs. Genotypes 1 (52.6%) and 3 (38.0%) were most frequent. Evidence was found for statistically-significant differences in prevalence by country, but not for a temporal decline in prevalence. …”

Prevalence and clinical significance of antiphospholipid antibodies in patients with coronavirus disease 2019 admitted to intensive care units: a prospective observational study by Mostafa Najim (14150400)

“…Although the presence of antiphospholipid antibodies (aPLs) has been proposed as a possible mechanism of COVID-19-induced coagulopathy, its clinical significance remains uncertain. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the prevalence and clinical significance of aPLs among critically ill patients with COVID-19. …”
