    Abstract Background: The role of Sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) in heart failure is established. Early data also suggests their favorable role in patients with acute coronary syndromes, but more evidence is still needed.
    Methods: In this dual center, double-blinded randomized controlled trial, non-diabetic patients (N = 100) who presented with anterior ST- elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) & had undergone successful primary percutaneous coronary intervention, but their left ventricular ejection fraction was below 50%, were randomized to dapagliflozin 10 mg or a placebo once daily. The primary endpoint was a change in cardiac function assessed by N-terminal pro-Brain Natriuretic Peptide - NT-proBNP measured at baseline & 12 weeks post the cardiac event &/or echocardiographic parameters (left ventricular ejection fraction, left ventricular diastolic dimension & left ventricular mass index) assessed at baseline, 4-weeks & 12-weeks post the cardiac event.
    Results: From October 2021 to April 2022, 100 patients were randomized. The mean drop of NT- proBNP in the study group was more significant compared to the control group by 10.17% (95% CI: -3.28-19.67, p-value 0.034). In addition, the decrease in the left ventricular mass index (LV mass index) was also significant in the study group compared to the control group by 11.46% (95% CI: -19.37 to -3.56, p-value 0.029).
    Conclusions: Dapagliflozin seems to have a role in preventing left ventricular dysfunction & maintaining cardiac function following anterior ST-elevation myocardial infarction. More Large-scale trials need to be done to confirm these findings further. This trial is locally registered at the National Heart Institute, Cairo - Egypt, and Faculty of Medicine, Ain Shams University, with reference numbers CTN1012021 & MS-07/2022, respectively. It is also registered retrospectively at the US National Institutes of Health (ClinicalTrial.gov) with identifier number: NCT05424315 - June 16th,2022.

    Abstract Recently, the rise of mycotoxin contamination in food materials was found to be due to several factors, including climatic changes’ impact. Therefore, the aim of this study was to provide a novel food product that allows the reduction of aflatoxin impact in animal tissues. Chicory root-extract (CRE) was evaluated for its active components, antioxidant potency, and antimicrobial activity. The CRE was utilized to produce functional yogurt (FY) that was evaluated in-vivo using experimental rats. The CRE showed high antioxidant activity and recorded valuable content of the active components. Results also showed a high antimicrobial effect against toxigenic fungal strains. The results have reflected the efficiency of the FY to suppress aflatoxin impacts in the animal tissues and biochemical parameters of rats-serum. An enhancement was recorded inliver and kidney functions for rats taking FY with the presence of aflatoxin. It was concluded that consumption of the FY assisted in suppression of the oxidative stress in rats-tissues.

    Abstract In this study, a membrane liquid desiccant air conditioning (M-LDAC) system is modeled using the TRNSYS building energy simulation software. Liquid-to-air membrane energy exchangers (LAMEEs) are used as a dehumidifier and regenerator in the proposed M-LDAC system to eliminate the carryover of desiccant droplets in supply and exhaust air streams, which may occur when direct-contact conditioners are used. A sensitivity study on the sensible, latent and total effectivenesses of the LAMEEs is performed under 36 operating and design conditions. The technical, environmental and economic performances of the proposed M-LDAC system are evaluated, and compared to those of a conventional air conditioning (CAC) system. The influences of installing an energy recovery ventilator (ERV) under balanced and unbalanced airflow rates conditions are investigated. Results show that the annual primary energy consumption and the life cycle cost (LCC) of the proposed M-LDAC system are 19% and 12% lower than that of the CAC system, and they reach 32% and 21% when an ERV, which operates under balanced airflow rates, is installed in the M-LDAC system.
