Using ‘Getting on with Epilepsy’ to support people with learning disabilities and epilepsy
(2023)A one-page summary of our guidance about how to use 'Getting on with Epilepsy' to support people with learning disabilities and epilepsy -
The usual suspects : Critical consideration of the fast tracking of ex-elite athletes into high profile coaching roles
(2008)Firstly, why might such fast-tracking be contemplated? It is a commonly held view that it is a natural and logical progression from being a high achieving athlete, to becoming a successful coach, or manager in a coaching ... -
Utilising humanoid robots to assist children with autism learn about Visual Perspective Taking
(2017-12-12)In this paper we provide an overview of the study we have recently conducted investigating the possibility of using humanoid robots to teach children with Autism Spectrum Condition (ASC) about Visual Perspective Taking ... -
Utility of N-terminal pro brain natriuretic peptide (NT - pro BNP) in elderly patients
(2006)To evaluate the utility of N terminal pro brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) as a diagnostic marker for diastolic dysfunction or failure, systolic dysfunction, and significant valve disorders in patients over 75 years. -
Utility of Phase Angle to Identify Cachexia and Assess Mortality in End-Stage Renal Disease
(2023-02-10)Objectives This cross-sectional analysis sought to identify cachexia and assess survival using phase angle (PA) in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) receiving haemodialysis. Methods Patients receiving haemodialysis ... -
Utilization of potassium sorbate by tobacco spoilage fungi
(1990-10)Aspergillus, Eurotium and Penicillium species (total of 11 isolates) were examined for their ability to utilize potassium sorbate as a sole carbon source in liquid culture, under different pH and temperature conditions. ... -
Utilization of the depolarization ratio derived by AERONET Sun/sky radiometer data for type confirmation of a mixed aerosol plume over East Asia
(2016-04-24)This article confirms the utilization of depolarization ratio derived by ground-based Aerosol Robotic Network (AERONET) Sun/sky radiometer data obtained during a high-PM10 episode at Gwangju, Korea (35.10° N, 126.53° E) ... -
Utilizing Bluetooth Low Energy to recognize proximity, touch and humans
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2016-11-17)Interacting with humans is one of the main challenges for mobile robots in a human inhabited environment. To enable adaptive behavior, a robot needs to recognize touch gestures and/or the proximity to interacting individuals. ... -
Utjecaj karakteristika imigranata-počinitelja kaznenih djela na stavove prema kriminalitetu imigranata
(2021-03-22)Minority threat theory and existing research show that public attitudes towards certain types of offenders (e.g. ethnic and racial minorities) are often more punitive. Research also reveals that a significant proportion ... -

Utopian Archaeologies : Utopian Archaeologies
(2015-07-01)The end of the city may be understood in numerous ways yet the image of it endures. Indeed the concept of utopia, for many people, may have extinguished but the power of imagining cities remains vital. David Pinder’s (2002) ... -
UV bright globular clusters in M87 : More evidence for super-He-rich stellar populations?
(2007-05-01)We study the ultraviolet (UV) and optical properties of 38 massive globular clusters (GCs) in the Virgo elliptical, M87, imaged using the STIS and WFPC2 instruments onboard the Hubble Space Telescope. The majority of these ... -
UV Circular Polarisation in Star Formation Regions : The Origin of Homochirality?
(2005-02)Ultraviolet circularly polarised light has been suggested as the initial cause of the homochirality of organic molecules in terrestrial organisms, via enantiomeric selection of prebiotic molecules by asymmetric photolysis. ... -
The UV colours of high-redshift early-type galaxies : Evidence for recent star formation and stellar mass assembly over the last 8 billion years
(2008-07)We combine deep optical and NIR (UBVRIzJK) photometry from the Multiwavelength Survey by Yale-Chile (MUSYC) with redshifts from the COMBO-17 survey to perform a large-scale study of the rest-frame ultraviolet (UV) properties ... -
The UV continuum slopes of early star-forming galaxies in JADES
(2024-03-22)The power-law slope of the rest-ultraviolet (UV) continuum (fλ ∝ λβ) is a key metric of early star-forming galaxies, providing one of our only windows into the stellar populations and physical conditions of z ≳ 10 galaxies. ... -
The UV properties of E+A galaxies : Constraints on feedback-driven quenching of star formation
(2007-12-01)We present the first large-scale study of E+A galaxies that incorporates photometry in the ultraviolet (UV) wavelengths. E+A galaxies are 'post-starburst' systems, with strong Balmer absorption lines indicating significant ... -
The UV-excess survey of the northern galactic plane
(2009)The UV-Excess survey of the northern Galactic plane images a 10°× 185° wide band, centred on the Galactic equator using the 2.5-m Isaac Newton Telescope in four bands ( U, g, r, He i 5875) down to ∼21–22 mag ( ~20 in He i ...
