Orofacial Clefts حسب El Baba, Nada

"…We found no significant differences in the proliferative abilities of the patient-derived cells and the healthy cells. The striking difference in behavior was related to cell migration, whereby the patient-derived cells showed decreased motility, increased adhesion, and a general loss of polarity compared to the healthy cells. …"

Performance Analysis of FSO Communications With Diversity Methods حسب 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. For receivers that implement aperture averaging, we derive conditions under which MIMO techniques are unconditionally better than cooperative techniques with any network topology.…"
