16. Effects of Dehydration and Blockade of the Renin-Angiotensin System in the One-humped Camel (Camelus dromedarius)
Abstract : The one-humped or the dromedarian camel is a pseudo-ruminant mammal, well adapted to the hot and dry climates of the desert. Its ability to withstand torrid heat and extreme desiccation is of paramount importance to its survival. READ MORE

17. VLSI Architectures and Arithmetic Operations with Application to the Fermat Number Transform
Abstract : The properties of arithmetic operations in Fermat integer quotient rings 2m+1, where m = 2t, are investigated. The arithmetic operations considered are mainly those involved in the computation of the Fermat number transform. READ MORE

18. Design and synthesis of -turn peptidomimetics : Applications to angiotensin II
Abstract : This study addresses the issue of how to convert peptides into drug-like non-peptides while retaining the biological activity at peptide receptors. Angiotensin II (Asp-Arg-Val-Tyr-Ile-His-Pro-Phe, Ang II) was used as a model peptide. Small bioactive peptides are in most cases conformationally flexible molecules. READ MORE

19. Obstructive sleep apnea and cardiovascular morbidity
Abstract : Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) affects 24 % of middle-aged men and 9 % of women in USA but the treatment criterion, daytime sleepiness is reported by 17 and 22 % of these subjects, respectively. Some previous studies have suggested an association between OSA and cardiovascular disease (CVD), but the conclusions have been conflicting due to co-existing traditionally recognized risk factors.

20. Vascular receptor changes in ischemic stroke
Abstract : The present thesis aimed to examine how ischemic stroke affects the vascular endothelin and angiotensin systems in cerebral arteries. To study vascular receptor changes in ischemic stroke transient focal ischemia was induced in rats. READ MORE
