A combined experimental and computational study of the effect of electron irradiation on the transport properties of aromatic and aliphatic molecular self-assemblies by Y. Tong (18394389)

“…The current rectification also reduces after the electron bombardment. In order to interpret the experimental results and give right diagnostics behind the decrease of the current through the junction after electron irradiation, we supplement the experiment with quantum transport calculations using Green's functional formalism in combination with density functional theory. …”

Cryomyolysis, a new procedure for the conservative treatment of uterine fibroids by Zreik, Tony

“…Total uterine volume ranged from 41.3 to 1134.8 ml preoperatively, and 49.5 to 1320 ml postoperatively (mean increase 22% after discontinuation of GnRH agonist). Normal uterine volume ranged from 35.6 to 548.7 ml preoperatively and 45.1 to 729.6 ml postoperatively (mean increase 40%); however, myoma volume showed a mean decrease of 6% (range-87-28%). …”

Follow up and comparative assessment of IgG, IgA, and neutralizing antibody responses to SARS-CoV-2 between mRNA-vaccinated naïve and unvaccinated naturally infected individuals ov... by Salma, Younes

“…At the 7th month, there was a significant decline in antibody responses among VN individuals, but not NI individuals, with a minimum decrease of 3.7-fold (p < 0.001). Among VN individuals, anti-S1 IgA levels began to decrease significantly (1.4-fold; p = 0.007) after two months, and both NtAb and S-RBD IgG levels began to decline significantly (NtAb: 2.0-fold; p = 0.042, S-RBD IgG: 2.4-fold; p = 0.035) after three months. …”

A cooperative watchdog model based on Dempster–Shafer for detecting misbehaving vehicles by Abdel Wahab, Omar

“…According to this protocol, vehicles might misbehave either during the clusters’ formation by claiming bogus information or after clusters are formed. A vehicle is considered as selfish or misbehaving once it over-speeds the maximum speed limit or under-speeds the minimum speed limit where such a behavior will lead to a disconnected network. …”

Rhus coriaria L. (Sumac) Demonstrates Oncostatic Activity in the Therapeutic and Preventive Model of Breast Carcinoma by Peter Kubatka (11008854)

“…Evaluations of the mechanism of oncostatic action using valid clinical markers demonstrated several positive alterations in rat tumor cells after the treatment with R. coriaria. In this regard, histopathological analysis of treated tumor specimens showed robust dose-dependent decrease in the ratio of high-/low-grade carcinomas by 66% and 73% compared to controls. …”

A comparison of metals in sediments and water in the River Nahr-Ibrahim, Lebanon by Korfali, Samira Ibrahim

“…Data revealed a drop in metal concentrations (Zn, Cu, Pb, Cd) in sediments at quarry site after its closure. The decrease in precipitation rate, lowering the level of water and the dilution of industrial discharges and decrease in water pH led most probably to the desorption of metals from sediments into the water.…”
