Heat Shock-Related Protein Responses and Inflammatory Protein Changes Are Associated with Mild Prolonged Hypoglycemia by Abu Saleh Md Moin (6189512)

“…Whether mild prolonged hypoglycemia elicits a similar response with inflammatory and oxidative-stress responses compared with a severe hypoglycemic event is unclear; therefore, this pilot exploratory study was undertaken. We performed a case–control induced hypoglycemia clamp study, maintaining blood glucose at 2.8 mmol/L (50 mg/dL) for 1 h in 17 subjects (T2D (n = 10); controls (n = 7)). …”

Drug Resistance Induction and Phenotypic and Genotypic Characterization of a Candida albicans Drug Sensitive Isolate by El Hachem, Setrida Charbel

“…The purpose of this study is to induce resistance to such drugs in a sensitive C. albicans reference strain ATCC5215 by culturing in increasing drug concentrations followed by whole genome sequencing to determine molecular mechanisms of resistance. …”

The global, regional, and national burden of inflammatory bowel disease in 195 countries and territories, 1990–2017: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 20... by Sudabeh Alatab (11257335)

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

“…Several reasons can account for this variability, including technical ones, such as inter‐assay and inter‐laboratory variation (reproducibility). We compared four immunochemical methods for the quantification of α‐synuclein concentration in 50 unique CSF samples. …”

Recyclable polyaspartate-coated magnetic nanoparticles for sustainable control of calcite and barite scales in oilfield operations by Abdelrahman T. Abdelaal (14674629)

“…<p dir="ltr">Scale formation is a major challenge in hydrocarbon production, leading to decreased efficiency, equipment damage, and increased operational costs. …”

Removal of Benzene and Toluene from Synthetic Wastewater by Adsorption onto Magnetic Zeolitic Imidazole Framework Nanocomposites by George Z. Kyzas (740387)

“…Fitting the adsorption data into the various models revealed the aptness of the Langmuir isotherm equation in describing experimental information and highest adsorption capacity; for benzene it was 129.4, 134.2, 137.3, and 148.2 mg g⁻¹, but for toluene it was 118.4, 125.2, 129.6, and 133.1 mg g⁻¹, for temperature 20, 30, 40, and 50 °C, respectively. Using obtained optimal conditions, the adsorption efficiencies of benzene and toluene were obtained to be 98.4% and 93.1%, respectively. …”

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

“…Primary Human Retinal Endothelial Cells (HRECs) were either pre-treated for 24 h with 1 µM resveratrol or left untreated, then glucose (30 mM) was applied at 3-day intervals for 10 days. qRT-PCR and ELISA were used to detect mRNA or protein expression of endothelial markers (CD31, CDH5, vWF) or mesenchymal markers (VIM, αSMA and collagen I), respectively. …”
