Synthesis and evaluation of novel Cu-based adsorbent-containing catalysts for CO₂ hydrogenation to methanol and value-added products by Rim Ismail (18192922)

“…Increased Cu content from 10 wt% to 30 wt% with fixed CaO content of 10 wt% resulted in a small increase in CO₂ conversion where the highest CO₂ conversion of 16.44% and the highest methanol selectivity (17.75%) were obtained for catalyst containing 20 wt% of copper. …”

Adaptation of a Mice Doppler Echocardiography Platform to Measure Cardiac Flow Velocities for Embryonic Chicken and Adult Zebrafish by Fatiha M. Benslimane (6695087)

“…While clinical echocardiography platforms can be used for relatively large animals such as pigs and rats, specialized systems are needed for smaller species. Theoretically, as the size of the imaged sample decreases, the frequency of the ultrasound transducer needed to image the sample increases. …”

Deletion of <i>RFX6</i> impairs iPSC-derived islet organoid development and survival, with no impact on PDX1⁺/NKX6.1⁺ progenitors by Noura Aldous (15429873)

“…Furthermore, RFX6 deficiency resulted in the formation of smaller islet organoids due to increased cellular apoptosis, linked to reduced catalase expression, implying a protective role for RFX6. …”

Three-dimensional evaluation of pulp chamber volume and dimensions across skeletal and dental malocclusions using CBCT: a retrospective cross-sectional study by Raidan Ba-Hattab (17773230)

“…</p><h3 dir="ltr">Results</h3><p dir="ltr">For molars, PCV was significantly smaller in short-faced individuals than in average and long-face groups( P ≤ 0.001 across jaws), while average vs. long face was nonsignificant. …”

Trends in Necrotizing Fasciitis‐Associated Mortality in the United States 2003–2020: A CDC WONDER Database Population‐Based Study by Saad Khan (296295)

“…Additionally, urban–rural analysis indicated that large central metropolitan areas had consistently elevated mortality rates, whereas smaller metropolitan and noncore areas experienced sharper increases.…”

Tumor size predicts vascular invasion and histologic grade by Abdalla, Eddie

“…Among all patients with tumors 5.1 to 6.5 cm, microscopic vascular invasion was present in 55% compared with 31% for all patients with tumors 5 cm or smaller (P < 0.001). Among patients with solitary tumors only, microscopic vascular invasion was significantly more common in tumors measuring 5.1 to 6.5 cm (41%) compared with 27% of tumors 5 cm or smaller (P < 0.003). …”

“…<p>Trees in urban areas have a significant impact on air quality and other environmental issues. …”

RFX3 is essential for the generation of functional human pancreatic islets from stem cells by Bushra Memon (4792767)

“…In addition, RFX3 loss led to smaller islet organoids, elevated thioredoxin-interacting protein levels and increased apoptosis in EPs and islets. …”

The effect of Hydrogen Peroxide treatments on dental enamel porosity and protein structure and its long-term implications on tooth hardness and optical properties by Ovidiu, Ciobanu

“…ResultsShade analysis revealed that, in the short term, HP treatment significantly increased lightness and Hue and decreased chroma compared to DW (p < 0.05); however, 1 week after treatment some of the initial gains in tooth lightness were partially lost. …”

Promising approaches for controlled pulmonary drug delivery by Nature Research (16552612)

“…Solid–lipid nanoparticles are smaller than liposomes, but also consist of fatty acid molecules and work in the same way. …”

A New Restriction Endonuclease-Based Method for Highly-Specific Detection of DNA Targets from Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus by Maria W. Smith (18807382)

“…Sequences of target oligonucleotides were altered to demonstrate that (i) any mutation of the restriction site reduced the signal to zero; (ii) double and triple point mutations of sequences flanking the restriction site reduced restriction to 50–80% of the positive control; and (iii) a minimum of a 16-bp target-probe dsDNA hybrid was required for significant cleavage. …”

Aneurysm ostium angle by Yasuda, R.

“…Although the DNR and AR of aneurysms requiring stent-assisted coiling were smaller than those not requiring it, the difference was not significant (P = .22 and 0.12, respectively). …”
