Turning point in COVID-19 severity and fatality during the pandemic: a national cohort study in Qatar by Chemaitelly, Hiam

“…Conclusion The conclusion of the first omicron wave was a turning point in the severity of the pandemic. While vaccination and enhanced case management reduced severity gradually, the rapid accumulation of natural immunity during the first omicron wave appears to have played a critical role in driving this shift in severity.…”

Advanced Hard Ctings: Towards A Whole New World by Santecchia, Eleonora

“…The main problem with steel, is that it exhibits a relatively low hardness (below 10 GPa) which strongly decreases upon annealing above about 600 K. Thus, the majority of modern tools are nowadays coated with hard coatings, in order to: (i) increase the hardness, (ii) decrease the coefficient of friction, and (iii) protect the tools against oxidation. …”

Biophysical studies of the effect of high power ultrasound on the DNA solution by Ali, Mohamed H.M.

“…The constant-field gel electrophoresis (CFGE) results showed that the molecular size of the DNA fragments decreased as the ultrasound power increased. The dielectric data in the frequency range from 20Hz to 100kHz for the native DNA showed that dispersion at frequency of about 500Hz resulted from polarization induced by counterions. …”
