A snapshot of current medical research: The notion of supply and demand by Almutairi, Adel F.

“…The fever for publication has led to a number of predatory journals on the Internet that accepts papers for the sake of making money, regardless of their quality and originality. Therefore, it is time to be more selective and innovative with our research in order to have a significant positive impact on healthcare services.…”

Doppler broadening spectroscopy of carbon black and carbon black-filled rubbers by Semaan, Mars E.

“…This is due to (1) reduction in positronium formation as carbon black is added to the rubber, and (2) positron trapping at the carbon black–rubber interface, which depends on the carbon black morphology. The S parameter decreases with the carbon black surface area. The S parameter does not depend on the sample mixing time.…”

1,2,4-Trimethylbenzene Transformation Reaction Compared With Its Transalkylation Reaction With Toluene Over USY Zeolite by Al-Khattaf, H

“…Kinetic parameters for the 1,2,4-TMB disappearance during the transalkylation reaction and in its conversion into isomerization and disproportionation products were calculated using the catalyst activity decay function based on time on stream (TOS). The apparent activation energies were found to decrease as follows: E-transalkylation > E-isomerization > E-disproportionation.…”

Is the United Arab Emirates Capable to Create a Green and Sustainable Future? by Almheiri, Abdulla Khalifa

“…For assuaging such a looming peril, international organisations have recommended taking suitable steps so much so that the global mean temperature do not increase beyond 2◦ C. This can be achieved by intensive endeavours for attenuation of the carbon footprint by undertaking greener and sustainable approaches in diverse sectors of life including energy, water management, lifestyle etc. …”

Managing Endothelial Dysfunction in COVID-19 by Matli, Kamal

“…Conclusion Among patients hospitalized with mild, moderate, or severe COVID-19 infection, targeting endothelial dysfunction by administering Nicorandil, L-arginine, Folate, Nebivolol, and Atorvastatin on top of optimal medical therapy did not decrease time to recovery. However, this treatment protocol was associated with an excellent safety profile. …”
