Modeling of photovoltaic soiling loss as a function of environmental variables by Wasim Javed (6105866)

“…The daily ΔCI was examined among a number of three-dimensional intervals of the daily mean of the environmental variables (i.e., the intervals of two environmental variables were presented on x and y dimensions, and average values of daily ΔCI on the third dimension), in order to qualitatively establish the relations that might help to develop improved PV soiling prediction models. …”

Factors Influencing the Magnitude and Clinical Significance of Drug Interactions Between Azole Antifungals and Select Immunosuppressants by Saad, Aline

“…The magnitude of drug interactions between azole antifungals and immunosuppressants is drug and patient specific and depends on the potency of the azole inhibitor involved, the resulting plasma concentrations of each drug, the drug formulation, and interpatient variability. Many factors contribute to variability in the magnitude and clinical significance of drug interactions between an immunosuppressant such as cyclosporine, tacrolimus, or sirolimus and an antifungal agent such as ketoconazole, fluconazole, itraconazole, voriconazole, or posaconazole. …”

Three cases of chronic photodermatitis successfully treated with upadacitinib by Hissa Al-Marri (22827287)

“…Management of photodermatoses involves both preventive measures and medical management applying topical steroids and calcineurin inhibitors, or systemic immunosuppressives, with variable degree of success and adverse events. Here, we report three cases of chronic photodermatitis treated with upadacitinib, a selective Janus kinase 1 inhibitor, as monotherapy, which resulted in fast, significant and sustainable improvement of signs and symptoms, with a favourable safety and tolerability profile.…”

Cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy is associated with increased glycemic variability driven by hyperglycemia rather than hypoglycemia in patients with diabetes by Hoda, Gad
