Nebulized fentanyl for respiratory symptoms in patients with COVID-19 (ventanyl trial) by Nissar Shaikh (11659441)

“…Interventions such as oxygen therapy, oral opiates, and traditional nebulizers like ipratropium bromide and salbutamol are variable in their efficacy, and therapy responses in patients are difficult to predict. …”

Exendin-4 alleviates steatosis in an in vitro cell model by lowering FABP1 and FOXA1 expression via the Wnt/-catenin signaling pathway by Olfa Khalifa (10914452)

“…Agonists of the glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R), currently approved to treat type 2 diabetes, hold promise to improve steatosis and even steatohepatitis. …”

The Development of Metal-Free Porous Organic Polymers for Sustainable Carbon Dioxide Photoreduction by Bariki, Ranjit

“…A viable tactic to effectively address the climate crisis is the production of renewable fuels via photocatalytic reactions using solar energy and available resources like carbon dioxide (CO₂) and water. Organic polymer material-based photocatalytic materials are thought to be one way to convert solar energy into valuable chemicals and other solar fuels. …”
