Metabolomics Profiling of Stages of Coronary Artery Disease Progression by Anlar, Gulsen G.

“…This study leveraged metabolomics profiling to investigate the progression of CAD, focusing on the interplay of hypercholesterolemia, hypertension, and diabetes. We performed a metabolomic analysis on 221 participants from four different groups: (I) healthy individuals, (II) individuals with hypercholesterolemia (HC), (III) individuals with both HC and hypertension (HT) or diabetes, and (IV) patients with self-reported coronary artery disease (CAD). …”

Magnetorheological elastomer-based variable stiffness flexible coupling for vibration isolation by Syam, Thaer M.I.

“…Magnetorheological elastomers (MRE) are smart composite materials whose mechanical properties, such as stiffness, are changed when exposed to a magnetic field. In this article, we report on the fitting of a variable stiffness coupling (VSC) within a shaft to isolate torsional vibration, which can adapt and change its attenuation frequency range. …”

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. …”

Estimating and decomposing changes in the White–Black homeownership gap from 2005 to 2011 by Seah, Kiat Ying

“…Our analysis shows that the housing bust did not affect the homeownership gap uniformly. In fact, we find that the gap decreased for households that were the least likely to own and remained unchanged for households that were the most likely to own, and that Black households with around a 50% probability of homeownership were especially vulnerable to the crisis. …”

Quality, safety and efficiency in practice: Risk assessment and standardisation of anesthesia equipment and supplies in operating theaters of high-volume tertiary-care academic med... by Hammad Y.

“…Background: Operating theatres (OTs) are valuable and costly resources that need to be appropriately designed and stocked for efficient, quality and safe patient care. We assessed the logistic inefficiency including the availability and location layout of necessary supplies across OTs of a high-volume tertiary-care academic medical center. …”

Na + /H + exchanger isoform 1-induced osteopontin expression facilitates cardiac hypertrophy through p90 ribosomal S6 kinase by Abdulrahman N.

“…Moreover, NHE1 transgenic mice also showed increased collagen deposition, upregulation of CD44 and phosphorylation of p90 ribosomal s6 kinase (RSK), effects that were regressed in OPN knockout mice. In conclusion, we developed an interesting comparative model of active NHE1 transgenic mouse lines which express a dilated hypertrophic phenotype expressing CD44 and phosphorylated RSK, effects which were regressed in absence of OPN.…”
