“…<div><p>This paper presents a 10 bit 100 MS/s asynchronous successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter (ADC) without calibration for industrial control system (ICS) applications. …”

Pleiotropic functions of the tumor- and metastasis-suppressing matrix metalloproteinase-8 in mammary cancer in MMTV-PyMT transgenic mice by Julie Decock (44558)

“…We have intercrossed Mmp8-null mice with the Polyoma virus middle T oncogene-driven (MMTV-PyMT) mouse model of mammary cancer to explore the effects of loss of MMP-8 on the incidence and progression of mammary carcinomas. …”

Resveratrol-Elicited PKC Inhibition Counteracts NOX-Mediated Endothelial to Mesenchymal Transition in Human Retinal Endothelial Cells Exposed to High Glucose by Roberta Giordo (299595)

“…Treatment of HRECs with HG increased intracellular ROS levels and promoted phenotype shifting towards EndMT, evidenced by decreased expression of endothelial markers concomitant with increased expression of mesenchymal ones. …”

Simulation of the size-composition distribution of atmospheric nanoparticles over Europe by David Patoulias (4722960)

“…The ground level concentrations of particles with a diameter larger than 100 nm (N100) were reproduced with a daily normalized mean error of 40 % and a daily normalized mean bias of −20 %. …”

Mirizzi Syndrome: Mastering the Challenge, Characterization and Management Outcomes in a Retrospective Study of 60 Cases by Yousef Yahia (19756989)

“…Laparoscopic cholecystectomy was the most common surgical approach (76.7%), particularly in type 1 (79.6%), and decreased to 50% in advanced types. Hepaticojejunostomy was more common in the advanced types.…”

Impaired Liver Size and Compromised Neurobehavioral Activity are Elicited by Chitosan Nanoparticles in the Zebrafish Embryo Model by Haissam Abou-Saleh (497840)

“…For the first time, we investigate the potential organ-specific (cardiac, hepatic, and neuromuscular) toxicity of ChNPs (size 100–150 nm) using the zebrafish embryo model. Our data highlight the absence of both acute and teratogenic toxic effects of ChNPs (~100% survival rate) even at the higher concentration employed (200 mg/L). …”

Antibody‐based methods for the measurement of α‐synuclein concentration in human cerebrospinal fluid – method comparison and round robin study by Brit Mollenhauer (482499)

“…Pilot data on an immunoprecipitation mass spectrometry (IP‐MS) method is also presented. Our results suggest that the four immunochemical methods and the IP‐MS method measure similar forms of α‐synuclein and that a common reference material would allow harmonization of results between immunoassays.…”

Did the periodic intensification of routine immunisation strategy (Intensified mission Indradhanush) reduce the demand for pediatric antibiotic formulations in India? by Habib Hasan Farooqui (7861166)

“…We conducted interrupted time series analyses by fitting a Poisson regression model. We used Newey–West standard errors to account for autocorrelation and heteroskedasticity.…”

Probing deposition temperature effects and computational analysis of DC-sputtered tungsten (W) thin films for CZTS based solar cells by M.I. Hossain (22303861)

“…Later, a novel heterojunction solar cell design incorporating a p-type CZTS absorber layer is analyzed in terms of absorber layer thickness with tungsten metal contact where the metal contact thickness was kept at 100 nm. These results suggest that the W films have strong potential for use in CZTS-based thin film solar cells.…”

Pilot testing of a novel Multi Effect Distillation (MED) technology for seawater desalination by Shahzada Aly (17191465)

“…An advanced modular MED pilot plant has been installed with a nominal capacity of 25 m3/day to validate the concept under a seawater salinity of 57,500 ppm (Dukhan Coast, West of Qatar), at the top brine temperature of 65 °C. …”
