Decreased Expression and Activity of cAMP Phosphodiesterases in Cardiac Hypertrophy and Its Impact on β-Adrenergic cAMP Signals by Abi-Gerges, Aniella

“…Objective: Evaluate the β-adrenergic regulation of cardiac contractility and characterize the changes in cardiomyocyte cAMP signals and cAMP-PDE expression and activity following cardiac hypertrophy. Methods and Results: Cardiac hypertrophy was induced in rats by thoracic aortic banding over a time period of 5 weeks and was confirmed by anatomic measurements and echocardiography. …”

Performance Analysis of FSO Communications With Diversity Methods by Abou-Rjeily, Chadi

“…By comparing the MIMO and cooperative methods with point receivers, we reach the central result that it is always better, from a diversity gain point of view, to add more apertures to the source and destination rather than adding more relays in their vicinity despite the fact that the fading variance along FSO links decreases with the distance. …”

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. …”
