A novel metaheuristic optimizer GPSed via artificial intelligence for reliable economic dispatch
Abstract Recently, meta-heuristic optimization algorithms have enhanced resource efficiency, facilitated informed decision-making, and addressed complex problems involving multiple variables...
Morphological, vascular, and functional changes in macular telangiectasia type 2 in Egyptian patients
Abstract Little documented studies regarding analysis of macular telangiectasia type 2 in Egyptian patients. This prospective study included 24 eyes with MacTel-2, and 24 control eyes. Spect...
Eco-friendly spectrofluorimetric determination of remdesivir in the presence of its metabolite in human plasma for therapeutic monitoring in COVID-19 patients
Abstract The global outbreak of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) has highlighted the urgent need for innovative therapeutic solutions. Remdesivir (REM) was the first drug granted approval by...
Growth performance, carcass traits, and histological changes of goats supplemented with different sources of phytochemicals
Abstract Phytogenic feed additives are increasingly used to improve animal health and productivity. This study compared the effect of supplementation with tannin to an herbal mixture consist...
High isolation quad ports MIMO antenna loaded with FSS for 5G communication
Abstract This paper introduces a high isolation quad ports MIMO (Multiple-Input Multiple-Output) antenna with a frequency selective surface (FSS) structure for higher frequency bands in 5G c...
Attention-driven UNet enhancement for accurate segmentation of bacterial spore outgrowth in microscopy images
Abstract Analyzing microscopy images of large growing cell samples using traditional methods is a complex and time-consuming process. In this work, we have developed an attention-driven UNet...
Microfacies analysis and diagenetic history of Lower to Middle Eocene carbonates at Umm Russies area in the northeastern desert of Egypt
Abstract An integrated study, incorporating field observations and petrographic analysis, has been conducted on the Lower-Middle Eocene carbonates of the Umm Russies area, North Eastern Dese...
Algorithm-based intraoperative diagnosis of liver tumors using infrared spectroscopy
Abstract Liver cancer, including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), cholangiocellular carcinoma (CCC), and metastases, presents diagnostic challenges during surgery due to its infiltrative natu...
Modeling of potential field data for detecting structural and tectonic framework of Esh El Mellaha area, Red Sea, Egypt
Birth mode is associated with layer-specific mechanical changes in fetal membranes
Abstract Rupture of fetal membranes and subsequent full-term birth are prerequisites for neonatal health, and a preterm rupture can lead to life-threatening complications. Our study determin...
Age-related changes in the proteome and mitochondrial metabolism of rabbit adipose-derived stromal/stem cells
Abstract Adipose tissue is continuously regenerated by stromal mesenchymal stem cells throughout life. This study hypothesises that early age-related changes in the proteome and metabolic pr...
Effects of K-wire diameter and insertion angle on femoral bone medial closing-wedge osteotomies: a finite element study
Abstract Medial closing-wedge surgery for distal femoral osteotomy is employed to correct genu valgum by correcting coronal plane malalignment. This procedure involves pre-surgery planning,...
Electrical equivalent circuit for analyzing the effect of signal shape on power distribution in cochlear implant electrodes and surrounding tissue
Abstract Cochlear implants are a well-established solution for restoring hearing in severe impairment and profound deafness. However, cochlear implants still have limitations, such as speech...
Exploring the anticancer potential of green silver Nanoparticles–Paclitaxel nanocarrier on MCF-7 breast Cancer cells: an in vitro approach
Abstract Paclitaxel (PTX) is a potent chemotherapeutic agent limited by poor solubility and adverse effects. To address these challenges, we developed a novel nanocomposite combining PTX pur...
Electrophysiological findings for peripheral nerves of lower limb in women with stress urinary incontinence and non-specific low back pain
Abstract Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) and nonspecific low back pain (NSLBP) are prevalent conditions that significantly affect women’s quality of life. Recent studies have identified a...
Analysis and simulation of a novel stochastic RNA silencing model
Abstract The current work aims to investigate how random environmental fluctuations affect the dynamics of the RNA Silencing model. To capture this complexity, a novel stochastic RNA Silenci...
Correction: A rapid and high-yield method for nucleic acid extraction
Enhanced phenol removal from wastewater via sulfuric acid activated eggshell derived carbon
Abstract This research explores the development of an innovative activated carbon adsorbent (ACES) derived from waste eggshells through sulfuric acid activation to effectively remove phenol...
Disease entity impacts muscle wasting in the ICU with COVID-19 patients losing muscle nearly twice as fast
Abstract Muscle loss in critically ill patients, particularly during prolonged ICU stays, poses significant challenges to recovery and long-term outcomes. ICU-acquired weakness (ICUAW) manif...
Morphology and material composition of raptorial foreleg cuticles in praying mantises Gongylus gongylodes and Sphodromantis lineola
Abstract Praying mantises (Mantodea, Insecta) are capable of capturing larger invertebrates and also smaller vertebrates with their raptorial forelegs. Forelegs may exhibit morphological ada...
