Reduced Anxiety and Depression and Improved Mood in Older Adults Living in Care Homes After Participating in Chair Yoga
(2024-03-24)Providing opportunities for older adults to engage in physical and mental activity is important to support healthy aging. The present preliminary study investigated the feasibility of accessible chair yoga for older adults ... -
Reduced endothelial dependent vasodilation in vessels from TLR4 mice is associated with increased superoxide generation
(2011-05-20)Toll like receptor (TLR)4 is a pattern recognition receptor expressed in endothelial and other cells, responsible for the sensing of endotoxin and host derived ligands. Our group has shown previously that the absence of ... -
Reduced mind-wandering in Mild Cognitive Impairment: Testing the spontaneous retrieval deficit hypothesis
(2018-09-01)Objective: Research on early cognitive markers of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is primarily focused on declarative episodic memory tests that involve deliberate and effortful/strategic processes at retrieval. The present study ... -
Reduced overlap frontier-based exploration with two cooperating mobile robots
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2010)In this paper, a frontier-based exploration is used with a couple of cooperating mobile robots to explore unknown environments. The aim is to decrease the overlap between the robots to minimize the exploration time. The ... -
Reduced skin permeation and penetration of clobetasol propionate when Dermovate cream is applied at short time intervals with emollients
(2023-07-02)Background: Dermovate cream containing 0.05% clobetasol propionate is a very potent topical corticosteroid (TCS) used in the treatment of severe inflammatory dermatoses. Regular emollient therapy should continue alongside ... -
Reduced tillage improves energy efficiency in winter sown combinable crops
(NIAB - TAG, 2016-04-15)NIAB TAG’s New Farming Systems (NFS) research programme, currently in year nine and based at Morley in Norfolk, consists of several long-term field trials aiming to develop bio-sustainable cropping systems for conventional ... -
Reducing and managing faecal incontinence in people with advanced dementia who are resident in care homes : protocol for a realist synthesis
(2015-07-10)Faecal incontinence (FI) is the involuntary loss of liquid or solid stool that is a social or hygienic problem. The prevalence of FI in residents of care homes is high, but it is not an inevitable consequence of old age ... -
Reducing dose for digital cranial radiography : The increased source to the image-receptor distance approach
(2013-12-01)This investigation proposes that an increased source to the image-receptor distance (SID) technique can be used to optimize occipital frontal and lateral cranial radiographs acquired with direct digital radiography. Although ... -
Reducing emergency bed-days for older people? : Network governance lessons from the 'Improving the Future for Older People' programme
(2014-04)In 2007, the UK government set performance targets and public service agreements to control the escalation of emergency bed-days. Some years earlier, nine English local authorities had each created local networks with their ... -
Reducing Errors in Optical Data Transmission Using Trainable Machine Learning Methods
(2019-03-15)Reducing Bit Error Ratio (BER) and improving performance of modern coherent optical communication system is a significant issue. As the distance travelled by the information signal increases, the bit error ratio will ... -
Reducing Grid Distortions Utilizing Energy Demand Prediction and Local Storages
(2021-01-27)Energy storage systems will play a key role in the establishment of future smart grids. Specifically, the integration of storages into the grid architecture serves several purposes, including the handling of the statistical ... -
Reducing New Chlamydia Infection Among Young Men by Promoting Correct and Consistent Condom Use: Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial.
(2022-08-10)BACKGROUND: The health, social, and economic costs of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) represent a major public health concern. Young people are considered one of the groups most at risk for acquiring and transmitting ... -
Reducing Procrastination while Improving Performance: A Wiki-powered Experiment with Students
(ACM Press, 2019-08-22)Students in higher education are traditionally requested to produce various pieces of written work during the courses they undertake. When students' work is submitted online as a whole, both the ethically questionable act ... -
Reducing Simulation Performance Gap from Hempcrete Buildings Using Multi Objective Optimization
(International Building Performance Association (IBPSA), 2020-04-01)Hempcrete is increasingly used as a construction material, as it provides stable temperature and relative humidity conditions in buildings. In addition to low energy operations, buildings built from hempcrete possess ... -
Reducing Simulation Performance Gap from Hempcrete using Multi Objective Optimisation
(2022-04-21)The impacts of climate change in the built environment is undeniably overwhelming, which highlights the need for a sustainable reduction of carbon from buildings and the built environment. While carbon reduction from the ... -
Reducing simulation performance gap in hemp-lime buildings using fourier filtering
(2016-08-29)Abstract: Mainstream dynamic simulation tools used by designers do not have a built-in capability to accurately simulate the effect of hemp-lime on building temperature and relative humidity. Due to the specific structure ... -
Reducing the Branch Power Cost In Embedded Processors Through Static Scheduling, Profiling and SuperBlock Formation
(2006)Dynamic branch predictor logic alone accounts for approximately 10% of total processor power dissipation. Recent research indicates that the power cost of a large dynamic branch predictor is offset by the power savings ...
