Variant Enrichment Analysis to Explore Pathways Functionality in Complex Autoinflammatory Skin Disorders through Whole Exome Sequencing Analysis.
( MDPI , 2022 , Article)The challenge of unravelling the molecular basis of multifactorial disorders nowadays cannot rely just on association studies searching for potential causative variants shared by groups of patients and not present in healthy ... -
Variation in plant litter decomposition rates across extreme dry environments in Qatar
( University of Akron , 2017 , Article Review)Decomposition of plant litter is a key process for transfer of carbon and nutrients in ecosystems. Carbon contained in decaying biomass is released to the atmosphere as respired CO2, a greenhouse gas that contributes to ... -
Variation in temperature and light but not salinity invokes antioxidant enzyme activities in germinating seeds of Salsola drummondii
( Taylor and Francis Ltd. , 2016 , Article)Seeds with efficient antioxidant defence system show higher germination under stress conditions; however, such information is limited for the halophyte seeds. We therefore studied lipid peroxidation and antioxidant responses ... -
Variation of soil properties with sampling depth in two different light-textured soils after repeated applications of urban sewage sludge
( Elsevier , 2021 , Article)Semi-arid agricultural soils have increasingly been subjected to urban sewage sludge (USS) applications due to accelerated soil depletion and shortages in manure supply. Research studies addressing USS reuse have mostly ... -
Variation Of The Electrical Properties Of Manganese Thin Films With Deposition Conditions
( Qatar University , 1989 , Article)The behaviour of the electrical properties of manganese thin films of different thickness (240 - 1500 A) evaporated under different deposition conditions was studied. The effect of the rate of evaporation (1-7 A/s), the ... -
Variation Orders in Building Projects in Khartoum State-Sudan: The Causes and the Impact on Projects Performance
( Qatar Univesrity Press , 2020 , Conference Paper)"Occurrence of variation orders (VOs) is a common phenomenon in building projects and a challenging feature. Opinions and feedback of the stakeholders of building projects at Khartoum State – Sudan were investigated to ... -
Variations in respiratory syncytial virus activity following the relaxation of COVID-19 restrictions in Qatar.
( Oxford University Press , 2022 , Article)Despite the relaxation of COVID-19 restrictions in Qatar in October-December 2020, the detection of RSV was reduced ∼25-fold compared with 2019. This dramatic decrease during the typical RSV season could be related to ... -
Variations in the temperature sensitivity of spring leaf phenology from 1978 to 2014 in Mudanjiang, China
( Springer New York LLC , 2019 , Article)Continuous long-term temperature sensitivity (ST) of leaf unfolding date (LUD) and main impacting factors in spring in the period 1978–2014 for 40 plant species in Mudanjiang, Heilongjiang Province, Northeast China, were ... -
VARIOGRAM MODELING FOR SPATIAL CORRELATION IN STRUCTURAL MRI IMAGES
(06-2 , Master Thesis)In recent years neuroimaging techniques growth help us to understand the working of the human brain by using structural magnetic resonance imaging (sMRI) and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). Structural MRIs ... -
Various potential techniques to reduce the water footprint of microalgal biomass production for biofuel—A review
( Elsevier B.V. , 2020 , Other)Due to their rapid growth rates, high lipid productivity, and ability to synthesize value-added products, microalgae are considered as the potential biofuel feedstocks. However, among the several bottlenecks that are ... -
Various techniques to enhance distillate output of tubular solar still: A review
( Elsevier B.V. , 2019 , Article Review)The necessity of freshwater is rising due to the expanding residents as well as fast urbanization. Besides, concerning the drinking purpose, clean water represents a very crucial role in several applications like batteries, ... -
Vascular access types in hemodialysis patients in palestine and factors affecting their distribution: A cross-sectional study
( Medknow Publications , 2019 , Article)The incidence of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients is increasing considerably worldwide, and most of the patients start their therapy by hemodialysis (HD). Arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is the best type of vascular ... -
Vascular cells proteome associated with bradykinin and leptin inflammation and oxidative stress signals
( MDPI , 2020 , Article)Among the primary contributors to cardiovascular diseases are inflammation and oxidative imbalance within the vessel walls as well as the fibrosis of rat aortic smooth muscle cell (RASMC). Bradykinin (BK) and leptin are ... -
Vascular Endothelial Dysfunction as the Mechanism for Development of Obesity

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) signaling in tumour vascularization: Potential and challenges
( Bentham , 2017 , Article)Angiogenesis is defined as the physiological process by which new blood vessels develop from pre-existing vessels; either by sprouting or intussusception. Inhibition of angiogenesis is one of the most encouraging strategies ... -
The vascular glycocalyx is not a mechanosensor in conduit arteries in the anesthetized pig.
( PeerJ , 2020 , Article)The role of the glycocalyx as the endothelial sensor of an increase in blood flow was assessed in the iliac artery in vivo. Acetylcholine-induced flow mediated dilation was evaluated before and after vascular glycocalyx ... -
