Autonomy, Leadership and Leadership Development in England’s School System
(2021-03-15)The policy context for schools in England places great emphasis on leadership and autonomy as drivers of educational improvement. The purpose of this article is to explore how we can better understand, in this context, the ... -
Autophagy and Spinal Muscular Atrophy: Towards a Pathway-Centric Therapy for a Fatal Childhood Disorder
(2019-06-04)Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a devastating neuromuscular and the primary cause of infant death. SMA is characterised by the loss of motor neurons in the spinal resulting in progressive muscle atrophy, paralysis and ... -
Autophagy in spinal muscular atrophy: from pathogenic mechanisms to therapeutic approaches
(2024-01-08)Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a devastating neuromuscular disorder caused by the depletion of the ubiquitously expressed survival motor neuron (SMN) protein. While the genetic cause of SMA has been well documented, the ... -
Autumn sowing increases severity of pasmo (Mycosphaerella linicola) on linseed in the UK
(2009)Surveys and field experiments showed pasmo to be the most serious disease affecting UK winter linseed in the 1997-98, 1998-99 and 1999-2000 growing seasons. Survey data indicated that pasmo was widespread in England and ... -
Auxiliary Computations: A Framework for a Step-Wise, Non-Disruptive Introduction of Static Guarantees to Untyped Programs Using Partial Evaluation Techniques
(2010-08-05)Type inference can be considered a form of partial evaluation that only evaluates a program with respect to its type annotations. Building on this key observation, this dissertation presents a uniform framework for expressing ... -
The availability and cost of a milk-free diet for cow's milk protein allergy
(2011)Background: Cow's milk protein allergy (CMPA) is the most common food allergy, and adherence to a milk-free diet is essential, particularly in immunoglobulin E-mediated CMPA sufferers (Benhamou et al., 2009). No studies ... -

Average BER analysis of SCM-based free-space optical systems by considering the effect of IM3 with OSSB signals under turbulence channels
(2009-11)In this paper, we derive the average bit error rate (BER) of subcarrier multiplexing (SCM)-based free space optics (FSO) systems using a dual-drive Mach-Zehnder modulator (DD-MZM) for optical single-sideband (OSSB) signals ... -
Average Scores Integration in Official Star Rating Scheme
(2019-09-17)Purpose: Evidence suggests that electronic word-of-mouth (eWOM) plays a highly influential role in decision-making when booking hotel rooms. The number of online sources where consumers can obtain information on hotel ... -
The average submillimetre properties of Lyman-alpha Blobs at z=3
(2016-08-21)Ly-alpha blobs (LABs) offer insight into the complex interface between galaxies and their circumgalactic medium. Whilst some LABs have been found to contain luminous star-forming galaxies and active galactic nuclei that ... -
Average transmit power of adaptive ZF very large multi-user and multi-antenna systems
(2015-04-01)In this paper, we investigate adaptive zero-forcing uplink transmission for very large multi-user multi-antenna systems in Rayleigh fading environments. We assume that the number of antennas at the base station (denoted ... -

Avoid jumping to conclusions under uncertainty in Obsessive Compulsive Disorder
(2020-01-15)High levels of intolerance of uncertainty (IU) could contribute to abnormal decision making in uncertain situations. Patients with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) often report high IU, indecisiveness and the need to ... -
Avoiding acyclovir neurotoxicity in patients with chronic renal failure undergoing haemodialysis
(1995)Acute neurotoxicity following the administration of the recommended oral dose of acyclovir (800 mg twice daily) to dialysis-dependent patients is increasingly recognised. This suggests that the recommended dose is too high. ...
