Institutional development and the dowry death curve across states in India by Austin M. Mitchell (14778793)

“…Women are increasingly exploited and murdered over dowry as incomes increase from a low level, but fewer deaths occur as incomes increase from a high level. We test this argument using a dataset of dowry deaths in years 2001–2011 for 32 Indian states and territories. …”

Healthcare Professionals' Attitudes Toward Patients With Mental Illness: A Cross-Sectional Study in Qatar by Suhaila Ghuloum (796180)

“…Stigmatizing attitudes by HCP can have adverse consequences on people with mental illness from delays in seeking help to decreased quality of care provided. Assessing such attitudes is an essential step in understanding such stigma and, if needed, developing and testing appropriate and culturally adapted interventions to reduce it.…”

Acute intense fatigue does not modify the effect of EVA and TPU custom foot orthoses on running mechanics, running economy and perceived comfort by Ken Van Alsenoy (14150559)

“…Flight time shortened (P = 0.026), peak braking (P = 0.016) and push-off (P = 0.032) forces decreased and vertical stiffness increased (P = 0.014) from before to after the repeated-sprint exercise, independent of footwear condition. …”

A lipidomic screen of hyperglycemia-treated HRECs links 12/15-Lipoxygenase to microvascular dysfunction during diabetic retinopathy via NADPH oxidase by Ahmed S. Ibrahim (10049522)

“…Our previous studies demonstrated the potential role of NADPH oxidase in mediating the permeability effect of 12- and 15-HETEs, therefore we tested the impact of intraocular injection of 12-HETE in mice lacking the catalytic subunit of NADPH oxidase (NOX2). …”

Fabrication of Ag₂O/WO₃ based sensors for detection of hydrogen sulfide by Ahmad Al-Sarraj (17151007)

“…The sensing properties of the sample were tested at different temperatures varying from room temperature to 200 °C. …”

Phosphate removal from synthetic and treated sewage effluent by carbide derive carbon by Ismail W. Almanassra (14151321)

“…<p dir="ltr">In the present work, a sequence of adsorption tests were implemented to assess the adsorption of Phosphate (PO₄³⁻) from synthetic wastewater and treated sewage effluents using carbide derived carbon (CDC). …”

Plasma volume variations in response to high intensity interval training in obese women: The influential role of menopausal status and age by Jabbour, Georges

“…Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that age was a significant contributor to the decreases in plasma volume (PV) observed both after warm-up and following the supramaximal cycling test - SCT (r = 0.44 and r = 0.57). …”

A new quadratic asymmetric error correction model: does size matter? by Ayman Mnasri (16932486)

“…We use a nonparametric residual recursive bootstrap technique to report p-values for the long-run tests. Simulation results confirm the consistency of our proposed estimator in finite samples and show that the bootstrapped tests have reasonably good size and power properties. …”

Fluid-Structure-Acoustic coupling analysis for external laminar and turbulent fluid flows by Tohid, Adibi

“…The results indicate that the transmission loss is 27% more at the elastic plate’s highest position. By decreasing the length of the elastic plate by 50%, the mean transmission loss is reduced by 9%. …”
