Application of hierarchical oligonucleotide primer extension (HOPE) to assess relative abundances of ammonia- and nitrite-oxidizing bacteria by Scarascia, Giantommaso

“…In contrast, Nitrosospira remained stable in its relative abundance against the total community throughout the operational phases. There was a corresponding significant decrease in the relative abundance of NOB, specifically Nitrospira and those affiliated to comammox, during the shock loading. …”

Communication Network for Ultrasonic Acoustic Water Leakage Detectors by Awwad, Ameen

“…Acoustic detectors were found the most suitable technology for the atmosphere in UAE, where the levels of humidity and, consequently, soil moisture are high, because both of GPRs and IR cameras operational capability to detect leaks tend to decrease sharply as soil moisture increases. On the other side, a conventional acoustic detector has very limited scope of detection. …”

Metformin treatment inhibits motility and invasion of glioblastoma cancer cells by Al Hassan, Marwa

“…This prompted us, to investigate the anticancer potential of metformin against GBMs, specifically its effects on cell motility and invasion. The results show a significant decrease in the survival of SF268 cancer cells in response to treatment with metformin. …”

Postprandial lipaemia 10 and 34 hours after playing football: Does playing frequency affect the response? by Darren J. Paul (6905450)

“…For the 3FOOT, there was a non significant decrease in postprandial TG AUC (-2.7%; p = 0.73; 95%CI = -2.0 to 1.5; ES = 0.05) and iAUC (-17.5%; p = 0.41; 95%ci = -2.5 to 1.1; ES = 0.31) from 10 to 34 hrs, respectively. …”

Drug-free phototherapy of superficial tumors by Mehanna, Stephanie

“…Additionally, cellular ROS accumulation and DNA damage were induced upon irradiation with blue light. When tested on a DMBA/TPA skin carcinogenesis model, a 90-min exposure to white light thrice weekly resulted in a significant decrease in tumor volumes/incidence compared to control and cisplatin groups, and restored normal morphological features, as confirmed by histopathology. …”

Mixed precision iterative refinement with adaptive precision sparse approximate inverse preconditioning by Noaman Khan (19810050)

“…Our numerical experiments show that this approach can potentially lead to a reduction in the cost of storing and applying sparse approximate inverse preconditioners, although a significant reduction in cost may comes at the expense of increasing the number of GMRES iterations required for convergence.…”

Peripherally injected cholecystokinin-induced neuronal activation is modified by dietary composition in mice by Zeeni, N.

“…When comparing diet effects, while the HF diet did not induce any change in activity, reductions in MEMRI-associated signal were found in the paraventricular nucleus (PVN) and lateral hypothalamic area (LHA) when comparing the HP to the HC diet. In addition, a significant interaction was found between CCK administration and the HF diet, shown by an increased activation in the PVN, which suggests a decrease the inhibiting action of CCK. …”

Differential water quality in confined and free-flowing water bodies, Lebanon by Korfali, Samira Ibrahim

“…Statistical analysis of the data revealed significant differences in water quality. The differences could be attributed to the fact that whereas the Qaraaoun reservoir is receiving domestic waste discharges that lead to an increase in the CO2 content and a pH decrease, the Nahr-Ibrahim River is influenced by agricultural runoffs and industrial discharges that increase the pH values. …”

Cytotoxicity of [HuArgI (co)-PEG5000]-induced arginine deprivation to ovarian Cancer cells is autophagy dependent by Nasreddine, Ghenwa

“…[HuArgI (Co)-PEG5000]-induced arginine deprivation led to extensive and prolonged activation of autophagy, which proved to be deleterious to cell survival since its inhibition led to a significant decrease in cytotoxicity. This indicates that the activation of autophagy following arginine-deprivation, rather than being protective, mediates cell cytotoxicity leading to death by autophagy.…”
