MicroRNAs 9 and 370 Association with Biochemical Markers in T2D and CAD Complication of T2D
No full textMicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non coding RNAs with essential roles, of which any alter- ation leads to several conditions. Their roles in diabetes (DM) and its vascular complications have not been completely assessed.
Aim
to study the association of two miRNAs; 9 and 370, with biochemical parameters of type 2 diabetic (T2D), dyslipidemia and coronary artery disease (CAD).
Subjects and Methods
Blood samples were taken from 200 subjects of both genders, in the Outpatient clinic of Al Qasr El-Einy teaching hospitals, in which levels of both miRNAs (using real time PCR) and routine parameters were measured. Subjects were divided over four groups, 50 in each group as follows; patients with T2D, patients with CAD, patients with T2D and CAD, and healthy control subjects.
Main Outcome
miRNA 9 levels were expected to be over expressed in diabetic patients, while miRNA 370 levels were expected to be over expressed in those suffering from CAD and their associa- tion with CAD complication of T2D
Women Empowerment in the Arab Region: Between the Anvil of Illiteracy and the Hammer of Passive Representative Bureaucracy
No full textThis paper emphasizes on enacting comprehensive mainstreaming institutional mechanisms to promote the role of women in socio-economic development in the Arab region. Sustainable development could never take place unless both the government and civil society are committed towards women empowerment and gender parity to achieve gender mainstreaming. However, cultural legacy, with its socioeconomic and political dimensions, is envisaged as the most challenging impediment. There are three critical areas of concern of substantive nature, which are high rates of women illiteracy, passive representative bureaucracy, as a result of underrepresentation at decision-making levels, as well as gender disparity. To investigate women empowerment challenges in the region, the study first presents the multifaceted hurdle of cultural legacy and identifies the relevant social, economic and political challenges from a multidisciplinary perspective. Thereafter, it looks at two inseparable issues facing women in the Arab region, illiteracy and underrepresentation at decision-making levels. The study, then, indicates the pressing need for policy changes to fill up the massive gender gap existing in the majority of Arab States, where not only a description of gender disparity profile of the Arab region is presented but also a comparative outlook vis-à-vis global trends is highlighted. Finally, the research identifies the indispensible roles of both the government and civil society to address key challenges in synchrony. It does not only call for placing women empowerment among the top priorities on the agenda of policy-makers in setting development plans, but also reiterates the significant role of civil society institutions in the areas of illiteracy eradication, civic education, and women rights advocacy. In this context, a framework of recommended policy actions is presented in an attempt to set effective women empowerment mechanisms to achieve gender mainstreaming and hence contribute to sustainable development

The Effects of Global Value Chain (GVCs) on the Pattern of Trade
No full textThe aim of this study is to analysis the several effects of the Global value chain phenomenon of (GVC) over the world ,specially its important role in the developing countries which participating through global value chains and go through deepening specialization with Trade in tasks which increase rapidly productivity growth particularly in some developing economies and for firms of various sizes and structures.GVCs also changed the nature of international competition entail adjustment costs, as some activities grow and others decline, and as activities are relocated across countries and a wide range of policies cutting across the labour market, social and competition policies right through to investment in education, skills, technology and strategic infrastructure will be needed to facilitate the adjustment process to occur the benefits from participation in GVCs

An Interface System for Microturbine Generators
No full textRecently, the Distributed Generation (DG) give a solution to the problem of continuously increased power demand in electrical networks. Microturbine units (MTU) which are suitable for DG application requirements, have been very popular for the power consumers because of their flexibility, compact design and low maintenance. Different interface systems could be used to link the MTU with the grid. Examples of these are conventional DC- AC converters (inverters), High Frequency Link Converters (HFLC), Matrix Converters (MC) and back-to-back converters. Back-to back converters have advantages of controlling the active and reactive power, ride through faults and elimination of harmonics at the generator side.Supervised by: Mohamed Abd-Alraheim Badr
