Investigating The Efficacy of Ruxolitinib and CHIR-99021 in Targeting Pediatric Neuroblastoma Stem Cells حسب Al Sayyed, Fatima

"…In this study, we investigate the efficacy of two small molecules Ruxolitinib, a JAK/STAT inhibitor, and CHIR-99021, a GSK-3 inhibitor, in targeting pediatric neuroblastoma stem cells by testing them on human MYC-N amplified, IMR-32, and non-MYC-N amplified, SK-N-SH, cell lines. Treating neuroblastoma cells with Ruxolitinib and CHIR-99021 resulted in significant reduction in cellular proliferation, viability, apoptosis and tumorsphere formation capacity in both IMR-32 and SK-N-SH cell lines. …"

A control algorithm to increase the efficient operation of wind energy conversion systems under extreme wind conditions حسب Nyam Jargalsaikhan (17380429)

"…<p dir="ltr">This paper aims to increase the power production of gearless permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) based wind energy conversion systems (WECS) in strong (greater than 25 m/s) wind speed regions. In general, most wind turbines cut off when wind speed is over the cut-out rate; as a result, the power generation of the wind farm decreases. …"

In vitro ischemia suppresses hypoxic induction of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α by inhibition of synthesis and not enhanced degradation حسب Sleiman, Sama F.

"…We validated the use of a reporter containing the oxygen-dependent degradation domain of HIF-1α fused to firefly luciferase (ODD-luc) to monitor quantitatively distinct biochemical events leading to hypoxic HIF-1α expression or stabilization in a human neuroblastoma cell line (SH-SY5Y). When OGD was imposed following a 2-hr hypoxic stabilization of ODD-luc, the levels of the reporter were reduced, consistent with prior models proposing that OGD enhances HIF prolylhydroxylase (PHD) activity. …"

Maternal Body Mass Index and Recommended Gestational Weight Gain in a Middle Eastern Setting حسب Tawa Olukade (11619453)

"…</p><h3>Results</h3><p dir="ltr">The mean maternal age was 29.7 ± 5.5 years, prepregnancy BMI was 27.5 ± 5.8 kg/m2, GWG was 9.58 kg ± 6.87 kg and gestational age at birth was 38.5 ± 1.9 weeks. In line with IOM recommendations, we found that higher BMI was correlated with decreased GWG and BMI was significantly associated with GWG even after adjusting for maternal age, parity, and infants’ gestational age at birth. …"
