Oxandrolone Treatment in Adults with Severe Thermal Injury by Btaiche, Imad F.

“…Muscle protein catabolism in patients with severe thermal injury is the result of stress-induced increased release of cytokines and counterregulatory hormones. Coupled with decreased serum anabolic hormone concentrations such as testosterone and growth hormone along with the presence of insulin resistance, anabolism in patients with severe thermal injury is inefficient or impossible during the acute postburn period. …”

Divergent Biochemical Properties and Disparate Impact of Arrhythmogenic Calmodulin Mutations on Zebrafish Cardiac Function by Sahar I. Da'as (17128747)

“…In cardiac muscle, CaM modulates directly or indirectly the activity of several proteins that play a key role in excitation‐contraction coupling (ECC), such as ryanodine receptor type 2 (RyR2), l‐type Ca²⁺ (Ca_v1.2), sodium (NaV1.5) and potassium (KV7.1) channels. …”

Phase state of secondary organic aerosol in chamber photo-oxidation of mixed precursors by Yu Wang (12152)

“…Liquid (bounce fraction; BF < 0.2) at RH > 80 % and nonliquid behaviour (BF > 0.8) at RH < 30 % were observed, with a liquid-to-nonliquid transition with decreasing RH between 30 % and 80 %. This RH-dependent phase behaviour (RH_{BF=0.2, 0.5, 0.8}) increased towards a maximum, with an increasing organic–inorganic mass ratio (MR_org_/inorg) during SOA formation evolution in all investigated VOC systems. …”
