Decreased methylglyoxal-mediated protein glycation in the healthy aging mouse model of ectopic expression of UCP1 in skeletal muscle by Jinit, Masania

“…Proteomics analysis of skeletal muscle revealed a shift to increased heat shock proteins and mechanoprotection and repair in HSA-mUCP1 mice. Decreased MG-derived AGE protein content in skeletal muscle of aged HSA-mUCP1 mice is therefore likely produced by increased proteolysis of MG-modified proteins and increased proteostasis surveillance of the skeletal muscle proteome. …”

The ortholog of human ssDNA-binding protein SSBP3 influences neurodevelopment and autism-like behaviors in <i>Drosophila melanogaster</i> by Safa Salim (9186786)

“…Flies with elevated levels of <i>Ssdp </i>exhibited heightened anxiety-like behavior, altered decisiveness, defective sensory perception and habituation, abnormal social interaction, and feeding defects, which were phenocopied in the pan-neuronal<i> Ssdp</i> knockdown flies, suggesting that <i>Ssdp</i> is dosage sensitive. …”

Social Media Use and Body Checking Among Lebanese Adults by Korkomaz, Aya

“…Additionally, the protective role of self-esteem on body checking may be buffered by active social media use, emotional eating, and stress. That being said, interventions regulating social media content to limit the spread of unrealistic beauty standards and media literacy campaigns educating people may be helpful to decrease body checking behaviors thus decreasing the risk of body image dissatisfaction and disordered eating.…”

Examining time-to-transport decisions in Emergency Medical Services by Hassan Farhat (9000509)

“…</p><h3>Results</h3><p dir="ltr">Figure 1 indicates the transport probabilities as inferred from the Cox regression. As the time spent on scene increases (due to various reasons, among them: spending more time providing clinical treatment and health education because the patient decided not to go to the hospital, or the crew spending more time convincing the patient to go to the hospital by explaining the potential complications of their condition and the potential outcomes of a refusal to go to hospital), the probability of transporting the patient decreases. …”
