HbA1c over 8.5% is not predictive of increased infection rate following penile prosthesis implant surgery in diabetic patients with erectile dysfunction by Raidh Talib (14779198)

“…Penile prosthesis implantation infection rate in a large series of diabetic patients was low with no significant association between haemoglobinA1c level and penile prosthesis implantation infection observed.…”

Percutaneous coronary intervention can be safely performed with left ventricular thrombus without increasing stroke risk: A 5-year retrospective review using real-world data by Mohanad Shehadeh (17860691)

“…Similarly, in-hospital mortality, all-cause mortality, and stroke at 12 months did not differ between the study groups.</p><h3>Conclusion</h3><p dir="ltr">Performing CAG +/− PCI among patients with LVT was not associated with an increased risk of stroke during admission or within 12 months in comparison to patients who did not undergo CAG +/− PCI, which may reassure cardiologists to perform CAG +/− PCI among patients with LVT safely.…”

Exendin-4 promotes GSIS without increasing β-cell number through upregulation of glucose-sensing apparatus and mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation machinery genes in hPSC-deriv... by Abdoulaye Diane (14152749)

“…Interestingly, addition of Exendin-4 (50 nM) during the last 3 days of the differentiation significantly enhanced GSIS associated with increased expression of glucose-sensing apparatus genes (Glut2, G6P2C, GCK) and genes encoding mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation machinery.…”

Significance of microscopically incomplete resection margin after esophagectomy for esophageal cancer by Markar, Sheraz R.

Decreased Analgesic Requirements in Super Morbidly Versus Morbidly Obese Patients Undergoing Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy by Hamed Elgendy (14148846)

A slow but steady nanoLuc: R162A mutation results in a decreased, but stable, nanoLuc activity by Wesam S. Ahmed (10170053)

“…However, questions related to its mechanism of interaction with the substrate, furimazine, as well as bioluminescence activity remain elusive. Here, we combined molecular dynamics (MD) simulation and mutational analysis to show that the R162A mutation results in a decreased but stable <u>bioluminescence </u>activity of NLuc in living cells and in vitro. …”

Decreased Interfacial Dynamics Caused by the N501Y Mutation in the SARS-CoV-2 S1 Spike:ACE2 Complex by Wesam S. Ahmed (10170053)

“…Additionally, we find that the N501Y mutant S1-RBD displays altered dynamics that likely aids in its enhanced interaction with ACE2. …”

Notch Signaling Inhibition by LY411575 Attenuates Osteoblast Differentiation and Decreased Ectopic Bone Formation Capacity of Human Skeletal (Mesenchymal) Stem Cells by Nihal AlMuraikhi (6002234)

“…Among the tested molecules, LY411575, a potent γ-secretase and Notch signaling inhibitor, exhibited significant inhibitory effects on osteoblastic differentiation of hBMSCs manifested by reduced ALP activity, mineralized matrix formation, and decreased osteoblast-specific gene expression as well as in vivo ectopic bone formation. …”

Performance evaluation of 3D-printed PLA composites doped with WE43 magnesium alloy for bone tissue engineering applications by Sumama Nuthana Kalva (17302906)

“…While a low Mg content (5 %) only slightly impacted the print quality and dimensions, higher Mg concentrations (10 % and 15 %) led to increased weight, rougher surfaces, dimensional shrinkage in height, and overall poorer formation quality. Adding WE43 alloy to PLA decreased the average pore sizes of the composites. …”

Prevalence and clinical significance of antiphospholipid antibodies in patients with coronavirus disease 2019 admitted to intensive care units: a prospective observational study by Mostafa Najim (14150400)

“…<p>Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) increases the risk of coagulopathy. Although the presence of antiphospholipid antibodies (aPLs) has been proposed as a possible mechanism of COVID-19-induced coagulopathy, its clinical significance remains uncertain. …”

The association between tobacco use and COVID-19 in Qatar by Ahmad AlMulla (10654461)
