Effect of reinforcement concentration on the properties of hot extruded Al-Al2O3 composites synthesized through microwave sintering process by Reddya, M. Penchal

“…Results showed that, as the content of hard ceramic particles increases, it improves overall mechanical properties including microhardness, 0.2% yield strength, ultimate compression/tensile strength, and Young's modulus while the ductility and co-efficient of thermal expansion decreases. XRD patterns and SEM/EDS mapping images show a uniform distribution of Al2O3 particles in the Al matrix. …”

Results from the first culturally tailored, multidisciplinary diabetes education in Lebanese adults with type 2 diabetes: effects on self-care and metabolic outcomes by Sukkarieh-Haraty, Ola

“…This pilot-study tested the effect of culturally-tailored education targeting diabetes selfcare on glycemia and cardiovascular risk factors of Lebanese with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) (n = 27; Age: 61 ± 10 yrs, 59% males, HbA1c: 8.98 ± 1.38%). Results: Diabetes self-care (Diet, Self-Monitoring Blood Glucose and foot care) improved after 6 months, which was reflected in a significant drop in glycemic levels (HbA1c:-0.5%; FPG: − 38 mg/dl), and cholesterol/HDL ratio (4.45 ± 1.39 vs. 4.06 ± 1.29). …”

Tailoring the deposition of MoSe2 on TiO2 nanorods arrays via radiofrequency magnetron sputtering for enhanced photoelectrochemical water splitting by Ahmad, Yahia H.

“…Compared to pure TiO2 NRs, the heterojunction nanostructured assembly displayed excellent spectral and photoelectrochemical properties, including more surface oxygen vacancies, enhanced visible-light absorption, higher photocurrent response, and decreased charge transfer resistance. In particular, the sample synthesized by sputtering of MoSe2 for 90 s, i.e., MoSe2@TiO2-90 s, depicted the highest current density (1.86 mA cm−2 at 0.5 V vs. …”
