The role of fractalkine in the recruitment of monocytes to the endothelium
(2000-03-31)Recombinant fractalkine possesses both chemoattractive and adhesive properties in vitro. Previous studies have demonstrated an upregulation of this molecule on the membranes of activated human endothelial cells and ... -
The role of global thrombosis in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)
(2017-04-25)Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a leading cause of mortality worldwide, despite great efforts in designing several risk stratification models for more effective prevention of related complications and creating more advanced ... -
The role of graphical representations in early design and requirements specification
(University of Hertfordshire, 1994)This report describes some initial investigations into the role of diagrams in early system design and specification. This early design and specification work is of critical importance to the success of the final product ... -
The role of health professionals in promoting the uptake of fall prevention interventions : A qualitative study of older people's views
(2011-11)Objective: to explore older people's perceptions of the facilitators and barriers to participation in fall prevention interventions in the UK. Methods: we undertook a qualitative study with older people who had taken part ... -
The Role of HI in the Star-Formation Processes in Spiral Disks
(Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 1994)We discuss recent work on massive star-formation efficiency parameters on 1 kpc scales in grand-design spiral galaxies. The fact that in two galaxies studies in detail, M51 and NGC 4321, the massive star-formation efficiency ... -
Role of H‑Optimization in the Computed Intermolecular Interactions and Charge-Transfer Integrals in Diketopyrrolopyrroles
(2019-04-11)Small organic conjugated systems displaying one-dimensional stacking motifs in the solid state that facilitate charge propagation are highly desirable. Noncovalent interactions, although weak, can synergistically provide ... -
The role of imagery-based techniques in cognitive-behavioural therapy for adults with eating disorders
(2011)Disorder-specific and transdiagnostic cognitive-behavioural models and treatments primarily target surface-level maintaining factors in order to effect symptom change. Despite this approach resulting in the most effective ... -
Role of inducible nitric oxide synthase in N-methyl-D-aspartic acid-induced strio-nigral degeneration
(2004-12-10)N-Methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA)-induced striatal excitotoxicity is mediated by nitric oxide (NO) but the role of inflammatory mechanisms and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) induction is not clear. Unilateral intrastriatal ... -

The Role of Knowledge Integration Capability and Collaboration Quality in Multi-Partner Projects
(2010)In many project-based industries there has recently been an increased tendency for collaboration and co-creation of value with the customers. However, many existing studies report inherent challenges and complexities related ... -
The role of land surface schemes in the regional climate model (RegCM) for seasonal scale simulations over Western Himalayas
(2015-04-10)Climate prediction over the Western Himalaya is a challenging task due to the highly variable altitude and orientation of orographic barriers. Surface characteristics also play a vital role in climate simulations and need ... -
The role of lateral inhibition in the sensory processing in a simulated spiking neural controller for a robot
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2009)Visual adaptation is the process that allows animals to be able to see over a wide range of light levels. This is achieved partially by lateral inhibition in the retina which compensates for low/high light levels. Neural ... -
