Vascular Endothelial Dysfunction as the Mechanism for Development of Obesity
(2018 , Master Thesis)Obesity is one of the major public health issues in the world with a rapid increase in its prevalence. According to the last public health report from supreme public health in Qatar in 2012, 71.8 % of the women were ... -
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 ... -
Vascular inflammation: Players and modulators

Vasoactive pharmacologic therapy in cardiogenic shock: a critical review.
( Taylor & Francis , 2021 , Article)Cardiogenic shock (CS) is an acute complex condition leading to morbidity and mortality. Vasoactive medications, such as vasopressors and inotropes are considered the cornerstone of pharmacological treatment of CS to improve ... -
Vector anisotropic filter for multispectral image denoising
( SPIE , 2015 , Conference Paper)In this paper, we propose an approach to extend the application of anisotropic Gaussian filtering for multi- spectral image denoising. We study the case of images corrupted with additive Gaussian noise and use sparse matrix ... -
Vector control of multiphase induction machine under open-circuit phase faults
( IEEE Computer SocietyIEEE , 2013 , Conference Paper)Multiphase induction machine is normally controlled using rotor field oriented vector control. Under phase(s) loss, the machine currents can be optimally controlled to satisfy certain optimization criteria. In this paper, ... -
Vegetation Changes in the Long Abandoned Farms in Qatar
( Qatar University , 1984 , Article)An attempt was made in this study to investigate the changes that occur in vegetation cover in the totally abandoned farms in Qatar. An effort was also made to compare the vegetation communities found in the abandoned farms ... -
Vegetation composition of a maritime salt marsh in Qatar in relation to edaphic features
( Blackwell Publishing Ltd , 1990 , Article)Coverpercentage values for plant species were estimated using the line-intercept method along two belt transects starting at the lower mangrove frontier and ending at the upper height of the salt marsh. Twelve perennial ... -
The vegetation of the state of Qatar as related to landform and soil.
( Qatar University , 1990 , Article)The effect of landform and soil on the vegetation of the State of Qatar is described. Five major landform/soil subdivisions are recognized; depressions, wadis, rocky and conglomerate hammada surfaces, sand dunes and sabkhas. ... -
Vegetation responses to 26 years of warming at Latnjajaure Field Station, northern Sweden
( NRC Research Press , 2021 , Article)Climate change is rapidly warming high latitude and high elevation regions influencing plant community composition. Changes in vegetation composition have motivated the coordination of ecological monitoring networks across ... -
Vegetative insecticidal protein of Bacillus thuringiensis BLB459 and its efficiency against Lepidoptera
( Elsevier Ltd , 2017 , Article)Bacillus thuringiensis strain BLB459 supernatant showed a promising activity against Lepidopteran pests with extremely damages in the larvae midgut. Investigations of the genes that encode secreted toxin demonstrated that ... -
VEGF-121 plasma level as biomarker for response to anti-angiogenetic therapy in recurrent glioblastoma.
( BioMed Central , 2018 , Article)Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) isoforms, particularly the diffusible VEGF-121, could play a major role in the response of recurrent glioblastoma (GB) to anti-angiogenetic treatment with bevacizumab. We hypothesized ...
