Percutaneous Mitral Valve Repair for Secondary Mitral Regurgitation: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis by Rasha Kaddoura (12506936)

“…However, there was no difference between the groups in terms of all-cause or cardiovascular mortality. Whereas, in comparison with medical therapy, PMVr significantly reduced all-cause mortality at 12 and ≥24 months of follow-up (OR 0.41, 95% CI 0.24, 0.69, p = 0.0009, I² = 32%, p = 0.23 and OR 0.55, 95% CI 0.40, 0.75, p = 0.0002, I² = 0.0%, p = 0.45, respectively). …”

In-situ grown ternary metal hydroxides@3D oriented crumpled V₂C MXene sheets for improved electrocatalytic oxygen evolution reaction by Iqbal, Anum

“…As a result, the NiFeCr@3D V₂C-MX composite has shown an excellent electrocatalytic activity with an overpotential of 410 mV at a current density of 200 mA cm⁻², Tafel slope of 100 mV dec in 1M KOH. Besides, the significant interaction between metallic centers and MXene support prevent detachment or agglomeration of active centers providing maximum interaction with the electrolytic ions, quick ionic OH⁻ transportation, speedy and stable electron transfer channels thus ensure the long-term stability of NV-5MX during 53 h continuous operation of OER. …”

“…</p><h3>Conclusion:</h3><p dir="ltr">Below-elbow cast treatment was favored, with statistical significance, in terms of loss of fracture reduction and re-manipulation, and was not associated with a higher risk of cast-related complications. …”

Evaluation of the Effect of <i>Hypericum triquetrifolium</i> Turra on Memory Impairment Induced by Chronic Psychosocial Stress in Rats: Role of BDNF by Karem H Alzoubi (13026873)

“…Furthermore, hippocampal BDNF levels were markedly lower in stressed animals than in unstressed animals, and chronic administration of H triquetrifolium chronic administration protected against this reduction. No significant difference was observed in the effects of chronic stress and/or H. triquetrifolium treatment on BDNF levels in the cerebel lum and cortex. …”

COVID-19 and renal involvement: a prospective cohort study assessing the impact of mild SARS-CoV-2 infection on the kidney function of young healthy males by Khalid Al Rumaihi (14148804)

“…Changes in the renal function appear to be related to reduced creatinine clearance and possible albumin leakage in the acute phase of the disease. The reduction in creatinine clearance is not predicted by viral load, and it appears to be a long-term effect of the disease that can last for at least 6 months.…”
