Jubeily, Lara (9/23/2020)

With the recent success of shows such as Westworld (2016), the figure of the female cyborg is slowly seeping back into our film screens and our unconscious. This image of a human/machine hybrid is not something new for ...
Cycle stealing and truncation for reducing delay in heavy-tailed queues.

El-Amine, Hadi Mohamad Hassan (2012)

Significant research effort has recently targeted reducing delay in “heavy-tailed” (highly variable) systems via truncating service times. However, these schemes induce idle times for some servers. This thesis proposes ...
Cyclic axial behavior of concrete columns confined with FRP sheets or with a combination FRP sheets and anchors -

Hany, Najwa Farhan (2017)

Confining concrete columns with external fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) jackets is a well-known technique widely used in strengthening and repairing existing columns. This method relies on the fact that concrete is a ...
Cyclic azacyanines: Experimental and computational studies on spectroscopic properties and unique reactivity

Patra, Digambara; Palazzo, Teresa Ann; Malaeb, Nagham N.; Haddadin, Makhluf J.; Tantillo, Dean Joseph; Kurth, Mark J. (Springer New York LLC, 2014)

The absorption and fluorescence properties of cyclic azacyanine (CAC) derivatives were examined in several solvents. The presence of electron donating or withdrawing groups on the CAC impacts spectroscopic properties. The ...
Cyclicity in Awassi ewes selected for aseasonality - by Hussein Mohamad Sabra

Sabra, Hussein Mohamad (2001)

Awassi sheep is a fat-tailed breed that is native to the near east. Its meat has a strong consumer preference for other breeds, yet the intensification of its production is hindered by its low fertility. An initial screening ...
Cyclooxygenase-2 glycosylation is affected by peroxynitrite in endothelial cells: Impact on enzyme activity and degradation

Eligini, Sonia; Colli, Susanna; Habib, Aida A.; Aldini, G.; Altomare, Alessandra Anna; Banfi, Cristina (MDPI, 2021)

The exposure of human endothelial cells to 3-morpholinosydnonimine (SIN-1) induced the expression of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) in a dose-and time-dependent manner. Interestingly, after a prolonged incubation (>8 h) several ...
Cynicism and other attitudes towards patients in an emergency department in a middle eastern tertiary care center

Batley, Nicholas John; Nasreddine, Zeina; Chami, Ali F.; Zebian, Dina; Bachir, Rana H.; Abbas, Hussein A. (BioMed Central Ltd., 2016)

Background: A caring, compassionate practitioner of the medical arts is the idealized version of what makes a good doctor. If asked to think of a painting of a doctor we most likely conjure an image of a physician sitting ...
CYP2R1 polymorphisms are important modulators of circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels in elderly females with vitamin insufficiency, but not of the response to vitamin D supplementation

Arabi, Asma; Khoueiry-Zgheib, Nathalie; Awada, Zainab; Mahfouz, Rami A.R.; Al-Shaar, Laila; Hoteit, M.; Rahme, Maya; Baddoura, Rafic M.; Halabi, Gazi K.; Singh, Ravinder Jit; El-Hajj Fuleihan, Ghada A. (Springer London, 2017)

Summary: We studied the association between CYP2R1 genetic polymorphisms and circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] before and after supplementation with vitamin D3 in 218 elderly. We found differences between 3 and ...
CYP450 Mediates Reactive Oxygen Species Production in a Mouse Model of β-Thalassemia through an Increase in 20-HETE Activity

Bou-Fakhredin, Rayan; Dia, Batoul; Ghadieh, Hilda; Rivella, Stefano; Cappelini, M.D; Eid, A.A; Taher, A.T (International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021)

Oxidative damage by reactive oxygen species (ROS) is one of the main contributors to cell injury and tissue damage in thalassemia patients. Recent studies suggest that ROS generation in non-transfusion-dependent (NTDT) ...
CYP450 mediates reactive oxygen species production in a mouse model of β-thalassemia through an increase in 20-hete activity

Bou-Fakhredin, Rayan; Dia, Batoul A.; Ghadieh, Hilda E.; Rivella, S. B.; Cappellini, Maria Teresa; Eid, Assaad A.; Taher, Ali T. (MDPI AG, 2021)

Oxidative damage by reactive oxygen species (ROS) is one of the main contributors to cell injury and tissue damage in thalassemia patients. Recent studies suggest that ROS generation in non-transfusion-dependent (NTDT) ...
CYP4A/CYP2C modulation of the interaction of calcium channel blockers with cyclosporine on EDHF-mediated renal vasodilations in rats

Hammoud, Safaa; Omar, Amal Galal; Eid, Assaad A.; El-Mas, Mahmoud M. (Academic Press Inc., 2017)

The endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factor (EDHF) serves as a back-up mechanism that compensates for reduced nitric oxide (NO)/prostanoids bioavailability. Here we investigated whether (i) under conditions of vascular ...
