Perceived confidence of dental students and new graduates in performing tooth extractions—An exploratory study by Kamis Gaballah (17991469)

“…</p><h3>Conclusion</h3><p dir="ltr">The findings of this study show that a majority of the participants were able to recognize tooth extraction cases which were beyond the scope of their training stage with females reporting a lower confidence. Increased clinical exposure to a wider range of tooth extraction cases with varying levels of difficulty may contribute to improving the self‐confidence of undergraduate dental students and interns.…”

Evaluation of cell disruption methods for protein and coenzyme Q10 quantification in purple non-sulfur bacteria by Ojima Z. Wada (14155734)

Modeling of photovoltaic soiling loss as a function of environmental variables by Wasim Javed (6105866)

“…Higher WS typically favored more positive daily ΔCI when RH was low, but at higher RH levels (>50%) daily ΔCI was more likely to be negative with increasing WS. In fact, high RH levels were related to negative daily ΔCI only at higher WS levels (>2ms−1); at lower WS levels RH had no significant effect on daily ΔCI. …”
