Sulfobetaine-based polydisulfides with tunable upper critical solution temperature (UCST) in water alcohols mixture, depolymerization kinetics and surface wettability by Jozef Kollár (8121347)

“…<p dir="ltr">Hypothesis: Synthesis of a new family of polymers having a polydisulfide structure can be conducted from sulfobetaine-based derivative of natural (R)-lipoic acid. A polydisulfide backbone of polymer can be depolymerized by response to external stimuli and sulfobetaine pendant groups ensure the upper critical solution temperature (UCST) behaviour temperatures that can be modulated according to the nature of the solvent and concentration. …”

Associations between Bone Mineral Density and WOMAC Scores in Healthy Individuals: Insights from the Qatar Biobank by Al-Hamdani, Mohammed

“…Multiple linear regression was used to examine associations between sociodemographic factors, total body BMD and BMD related to specific skeletal sites (including femoral (femoral neck and trochanter), trunk, pelvis and total spine), and the three WOMAC subscales (pain, stiffness, and physical function).Results: After controlling for sociodemographic variables, total body and specific BMD measures did not predict pain. However, BMD measures significantly contributed to predicting stiffness after controlling for sociodemographic variables (R2 = 0.065, ΔF(7, 1724) = 3.34, p = 0.002), with a higher total body BMD associated with increased stiffness and a higher trunk BMD associated with decreased stiffness. …”
