Authors: Kalariya, Kuldeepsingh A.; Advisor: -; Participants: Shahi, Deep; Meena, Ram Prasnna; Gajbhiye, Narendra; Sarkar, Rohan; Geetha, K. A.; Saran, Parmeshwar Lal (2023) - Weather parameters during the crop period revealed that there was evaporative demand of 22.6 mm and 23.4 mm in the crop year 2019 and 2020, respectively, during the stress period. Bright sunshine hours were 56.6 and 59.1 during the stress period in the crop years 2019 and 2020, respectively. The maximum temperature remained at 29.1 °C and 28.4 °C during the stress period in the crop year 2019 and 2020, respectively. The periodic measurement of soil moisture revealed that by stopping the irrigation, the soil moisture was depleted continuously and reached less than 6.0% in 50 days stress period (Fig. 1).

Authors: Juliano Pacheco Abreu,; Advisor: -; Participants: Tholt, Beatriz; Molena, Kelly Fernanda; Pretel, Hermes; Veiga, Eugenia Velludo (2023) - Juvenile psammomatoid ossifying fibroma (JPOF) is a rare neoplasm belonging to a group of fibro-osseous lesions characterized by the replacement of normal bone tissue by fibrous tissue, containing foci of mineralization of varying shapes and amounts (Chrcanovic and Gomez 2020). Due to its specificity, it is classified as an osteogenic neoplasm with clinical and histological characteristics different from juvenile trabecular ossifying fibroma, predilection for age and specific locations (Ranganath et al. 2014; Chrcanovic and Gomez 2020). They most frequently affect the bones of the maxillofacial complex of children and adolescents, involving the paranasal sinuses, orbit, frontoethmoidal complex and the mandible (Chandini et al. 2022; Sarode et al. 2018). According to the World Health...

Authors: Chakraborty, Prasenjit; Advisor: -; Participants: Kumar, Randhir; Karn, Sanjay; Srivastava, Ankit Kumar; Mondal, Priya (2023) - In early December 2019, an unusual pneumonia outbreak in Wuhan city, China, created an unprecedented and irreversible impact on the entire world 2/24/2023 12:58:00 PM. The symptoms of COVID-19 range from mild to severe, and include mainly fever, cough, and respiratory distress. Severe cases of pneumonia and hypoxemia result in considerable mortality (Rothan and Byrareddy 2020). The etiology has been linked to the new strain of coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2). According to the COVID-19 weekly epidemiological update by the World Health Organization (WHO), as of 9 May 2021, there have been a total of 163,965,336 COVID-19 cases with 3,397,147 fatalities (World Health Organization 2021). However, the new dynamics of the outbreaks seem highly variable among countries

Authors: Artsitas, Sotirios; Advisor: -; Participants: Artsitas, Dimitrios; Segkou, Ioanna; Koronaki, Irene; Toutouzas, Konstantinos G.; Zografos, George C. (2023) - Study retrieval and quality assessment
The literature search included all available comparative studies until April 2022. This process resulted in a total of 180 reports, of which 130 were retrieved from the “Google Scholar,” 45 from the “PubMed,” and 5 from the “CENTRAL” databases, respectively. Of this initial set of reports, 22 were excluded as duplicates, 46 were excluded due to incompatibility of their title with automated means, and 7 were excluded due to incompatibility of their title after a relevant evaluation by the authors. The above procedure resulted in 105 relevant reports toward the evaluation of their content. Of these, 24 were excluded due to unavailable text, resulting in a total of 81 reports with available text for further evaluation. The text from 27 of them wa...

Authors: Seyoum, Wasihun; Advisor: -; Participants: Tora, Ephrem (2023) - About 83 reported articles were retrieved and sorted from various database sources. Twenty of the articles were excluded during the initial screening due to inappropriateness of abstract and title by manual tracing. Further, 63 articles were subjected to inclusion criteria. Among these, 27 articles were removed due to the presence of an unrepresentative sample, redundancy of reports and inadequate methodology. Inadequate methodology includes poor sampling strategy, data management and presentation of results. The remaining 36 articles were again tested for sample size and 9 articles were dropped due to small sample size where the studies were only based on molecular characterization. Thus, only 27 full-length studies which met the eligibility criteria for the systematic review and m...

Authors: Zhou, Guichi; Advisor: -; Participants: Wang, Lulu; Tang, Xue; Liu, Shilin; Li, Tonghui; Liu, Yi; Chen, Fen; Mai, Huirong; Liu, Sixi; Wen, Feiqiu; Wang, Ying (2023) - Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is a critical hematological cancer, making up 75–80% of all pediatric acute leukemia cases (Alvarnas et al. 2012). Although advanced chemotherapy regimens are highly efficient in pediatric ALL, approximately 15–20% of cases eventually relapse, while 8–10% die from disease progression or treatment-related complications (Nguyen et al. 2008). ALL is common in children with hematological cancers in China. Although China has made substantial progress treating pediatric ALL(Chen et al. 2021), more effective and less toxic approaches to treat young patients with relapsed/refractory ALL (R/R ALL) are still urgently needed

Authors: Reyes-Chaparro, A.; Advisor: -; Participants: Lopez, N. S. Flores-; Guerrero, F. Quintanilla-; Nicolás-Álvarez, Dulce Estefanía; Hernandez-Martinez, A. R. (2023) - A total of 10,100 chalcone-derived molecules were obtained (Additional files 1, 2, and 3); then different screening techniques were used for physicochemical properties, molecular docking, molecular dynamics, and DFT calculations to select the best candidates. Drugs used as MAO-A inhibitors were evaluated as a reference comparison.

Table 1 illustrates liver damage which obviously appeared as a significant elevated activities (P < 0.0001) of circulating enzymes in serum (ALT, AST, ALP and LDH) after DXM treatment. Conversely, O. majorana pretreated animals successfully improved liver function markers which restored and/ or reduced these enzyme activities to normal level

Authors: Atalay, Merve; Advisor: -; Participants: Şen, Başak; Erden, Didem Dayangaç (2023) - Cystic fibrosis is an autosomal recessive genetic disease caused by mutations in the Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Regulator (CFTR) gene. The CFTR gene has been mapped to 7q31.2 (Navarro 2016). Today, more than 2000 mutations have been identified in the CFTR gene which varies depending on ethnicity (The Clinical and Functional TRanslation of CFTR (CFTR2)). Mutations detected in Turkish population are genetically heterogeneous and different from European populations. In Europe, incidence rates ranging from 1:2800 to 1:10,000 have been reported, while incidence in Asia has greater variance between countries, ranging from 1:5800 in Bahrain to 1:350,000 in Japan (Scotet et al. 2020). As a result of epidemiological studies conducted in central Turkey, the incidence of CF was estimated to...

Authors: Ellithy, Marwa Mohamed; Advisor: -; Participants: Tarek, Heba Elsayed; Shalash, Heba Nader (2023) - One of the major threats to human health is malignancy. Treatment regimens usually followed by either chemo or radiotherapy have a wide range of collateral unwanted side effects. Scientists seek alternatives with less or no adverse consequences. Nutraceuticals possess disease-modifying implications in medicine related to Alzheimer’s, cardiovascular, Parkinson’s diseases and malignancy. Apricot oil extract is one such nutraceutical. Its active component is amygdalin, known also as vitamin B.17 or laetrile. It is found in a wide range of vegetable species. Amygdalin is found in high concentration in the kernels of rosaceous fruits such as bitter nuts and apricot kernels. Amygdalin is an aromatic cyanogenic component with a glycoside group. It has a diverse effect on different systems ...
