A quality of experience-aware association algorithm for 5G heterogeneous networks by Trakas, Panagiotis

“…Under these circumstances, the MNOs need to guarantee the users' Quality of Experience (QoE) requirements, while ensuring the sustainability of a 5G investment. To this end, we consider a 5G Heterogeneous Network (HetNet) deployment where MNOs use a QoE-based charging scheme. …”

Hyperhydration-induced decrease in urinary luteinizing hormone concentrations of Male athletes in doping control analysis by Athanasiadou, Ioanna

“…Baseline urinary LH concentrations, expressed as the mean � SD for each individual, were within the acceptable physiological range (7.11 � 5.42 IU/L). A comparison of the measured LH values for both hyperhydration phases (Phase A: 4.24 � 5.60 IU/L and Phase B: 4.74 � 4.72 IU/L) with the baseline (''normal'') values showed significant differences (Phase A: p < .001 and Phase B: p < .001), suggesting the clear effect of urine dilution due to hyperhydration. …”

A robust experimental-based artificial neural network approach for photovoltaic maximum power point identification considering electrical, thermal and meteorological impact by Gowid, Samer

“…Nonetheless, the consideration of irradiance, electrical, thermal, and weather parameters (scenario IV) yielded higher identification accuracy. The results showed a decrease in the MSE of Vmp by 74.3% (from 1.6 V to 0.411 V), and in the MSE of Imp by 95% (from 4.4e−6 A to 2.16e−7 A), respectively. …”

Protein arginine methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5) promotes survival of lymphoma cells via activation of WNT/B-catenin and AKT/GSK3B proliferative signaling by Chung, Jihyun

“…We show that PRMT5 stimulates WNT/B-CATENIN signaling through direct epigenetic silencing of pathway antagonists, AXIN2 and WIF1, and indirect activation of AKT/GSK3 signaling.PRMT5 inhibition with either shRNA-mediated knockdown or a specific small molecule PRMT5 inhibitor, CMP-5, not only leads to derepression of WNT antagonists and decreased levels of active phospho-AKT (Thr-450 and Ser-473) and inactive phospho- GSK3B (Ser-9) but also results in decreased transcription of WNT/B-CATENIN target genes, CYCLIN D1, c-MYC, and SURVIVIN, and enhanced lymphoma cell death. …”

Corrosion behavior of API-X120 carbon steel alloy in a GTL F-T process water environment at low COD concentration by Ewis, Dina

“…The effect of temperature, time and rotation speed of FT-GTL process water on the corrosion rate of API X-120 carbon steel was investigated. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and potentiodynamic polarization techniques were used to determine the carbon steel corrosion rate under temperatures ranging from 293 to 323 K and rotation speed of 0, 500, 1000, 2000 rpm when the immersion time was 0.5, 1, and 2 h. …”
