The protective effects of conditioned media from human mesenchymal stem cells against Methylglyoxal-mediated injury of cultured endothelial cells by Maram Hasan (6672440)

“…Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) possess specific properties including the inhibition of apoptosis, oxidative stress, and secretion of trophic factors. These unique properties prompted us to investigate the effect of MSCs conditioned medium (MSCs-CM) on preventing the noxious effects of methylglyoxal (MGO), a precursor of advanced glycated end-products (AGEs) that play a key role in the pathophysiology of diabetes, on endothelial cells with respect to oxidative stress and cell survival. …”

The Immunophenotyping Changes of Peripheral CD4+ T Lymphocytes and Inflammatory Markers of Class III Obesity Subjects After Laparoscopic Gastric Sleeve Surgery – A Follow-Up Study... by Nasser M Rizk (18810328)

“…</p><h3>Results </h3><p dir="ltr">The means (SD) of age and BMI of class III obesity subjects was 32.32 (8.36) years and 49.02 (6.28) kg/m², respectively. LGS caused a significant reduction in BMI by 32%, p< 0.0001. LGS intervention significantly decreased CD4+ T-lymphocytes and effector memory (TEM) cells but increased T-regulatory (Treg), naïve, and central memory (TCM) cells, with all p values < 0.05. …”

Ultra high gain step up DC/DC converter based on switched inductor and improved voltage lift technique for high‐voltage applications by Shahrukh Khan (13791895)

“…A combination of switched inductor and the conventional voltage lift technique can be used to achieve high gain, but the semiconductor's stress is still high. An improved voltage lift technique by employing an extra diode and capacitor and a switched inductor is proposed, which significantly increases the voltage boosting factor and reduces the voltage stress of semiconductor devices. …”
