Fecal Carriage and Molecular Characterization of Carbapenemase-Producing Enterobacterales in the Pediatric Population in Qatar by Pérez-López, Andrés

“…All 9 blaOXA-48-type-gene-containing E. coli sequence type 38 (ST38) strains were isolated from patients without international travel history. The mean quarterly incidence of fecal carriage decreased more than 6-fold after the implementation of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)-related international travel restrictions in Qatar in mid-March 2020. …”

Comparing Methods for Induction of Insulin Resistance in Mouse 3T3-L1 Cells. by Al-Jaber, Hend

“…These factors included 2.5nM tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFα), 20 ng/ml interleukin-6 (IL-6), 10 micromole 4-hydroxynonenal (4HNE), and high insulin (HI) at a concentration of 100nM. To assess cell proliferation, DAPI staining was employed, and the expression of genes associated with various metabolic pathways affected by insulin resistance was investigated using Real-Time PCR. …”

Repositioning of the global epicentre of non-optimal cholesterol by Taddei, Cristina

“…However, the trends of HDL and non-HDL cholesterol levels over time have not been previously reported in a global analysis. Here we pooled 1,127 population-based studies that measured blood lipids in 102.6 million individuals aged 18 years and older to estimate trends from 1980 to 2018 in mean total, non-HDL and HDL cholesterol levels for 200 countries. …”

Vertical zonation and functional diversity of fish assemblages revealed by ROV videos at oil platforms in The Gulf by Ben-Hamadou, Radhouan

“…These results suggest that the vertical zonation pattern does not change, or only changes slightly, on a daily basis. The mean centers of mass of the most abundant fish species did not overlap, likely due to potential competition or niche differences. …”

The impact of PV generation and load types on the impedance relays during both balanced and unbalanced faults by Kamel, Rashad M.

“…When single line to ground fault occurs at the PV bus (far from relay location), the dynamic loads increase the relay impedance, while the PV plant decreases the relay impedance. When a single phase to ground fault occurs at the relay bus (load bus), the dynamic load decreases the relay impedance, and the PV plant increases it. …”

Correlated decay of triplet excitations in the shastry-sutherland compound SrCu2 (BO3)2 by Zayed, M.E.

“…The temperature dependence of the gapped triplet excitations (triplons) in the 2D Shastry-Sutherland quantum magnet SrCu2(BO3)2 is studied by means of inelastic neutron scattering. The excitation amplitude rapidly decreases as a function of temperature, while the integrated spectral weight can be explained by an isolated dimer model up to 10 K. …”
