Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D concentrations are inversely associated with body adiposity measurements but the association with bone mass is non-linear in postmenopausal women by Vijay, Ganji

“…In a continuous variable analysis, the association between 25(OH)D and bone mass was significant, non-linear, inverse ‘U’. In conclusion, serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D was inversely associated with adiposity measures and non-linearly associated to bone mass in postmenopausal Qatari women.…”

Assessing the potential of network reconfiguration to improve distributed generation hosting capacity in active distribution systems by Margossian, Harag

“…This paper explores how the DG hosting capacity of active distribution systems can be increased by means of network reconfiguration, both static, i.e., grid reconfiguration at planning stage, and dynamic, i.e., grid reconfiguration using remotely controlled switches as an active network management (ANM) scheme. …”

Mixed matrix membranes containing aspartic acid functionalized graphene oxide for enhanced oil-water emulsion separation by Omnya Abdalla (17100211)

“…The results revealed an increase in the membrane’s hydrophilicity, water permeability and oil rejection at very low fGO loadings, i.e., 0.05 – 0.2 wt.%, but no further enhancement was obtained at higher loadings, i.e., 0.4−0.8 wt.%. …”

Self-reported awareness and attitude of cancer patients towards clinical nurse coordinators by Deeb, Ahmad

“…Results: The overall percentage mean scores ± standard deviation of knowledge was 59 ± 17, perception towards clinical nurse coordinators (79 ± 14) and attitude towards seeking their services (69 ± 16). Linear regression showed that participants on chemotherapy had significantly better perception (higher scores) compared to participants on concurrent therapies (β = -3.91, p = .049). …”

Polarimetric SAR Speckle Reduction by Hybrid Iterative Filtering by Yahia, Mohamed

“…An expression that takes into account the following important numerical considerations is proposed. 1) The variability of the pixel is measured by coefficient variation (CV) rather than the variance. 2) The statistics are computed using non-local neighborhood instead of local square one. 3) A new normalizing function (i. e. hyperbolic tangent) is implemented. 4) The dynamic of range of b k is increased by multiplying the CVs of the filtered and the originals images. …”
