The Role of Diet in the Management of Psoriasis: A Scoping Review
(2023-09-20)Psoriasis is a chronic, systemic, immune-mediated, inflammatory skin disease associated with significant comorbidities. Globally, there are an estimated 60 million people living with psoriasis (PLwP). There is a growing ... -
The role of E+A and post-starburst galaxies – I. Models and model results
(2009)Different compositions of galaxy types in the field in comparison to galaxy clusters as described by the morphology–density relation in the local universe are interpreted as a result of transformation processes from late- ... -
The role of E+A and post-starburst galaxies – II. Spectral energy distributions and comparison with observations
(2009)In a previous paper, we have shown that the classical definition of E+A galaxies excludes a significant number of post-starburst galaxies. We suggested that analysing broad-band spectral energy distributions (SEDs) is a ... -
The Role of Education in Jewish Continuity : A response to Jonathan Sacks
(2005)Contrasting explanations of Jewish survival form the backdrop to this article. For Jonathan Sacks (1994) the crucial factor has been the role played by Jewish education; indeed, he claims that the demographic threat currently ... -
The role of embodiment and intersubjectivity in clinical reasoning
(2015)Embodied approaches to cognition have been recently challenging standard views in philosophy of mind and the cognitive sciences. We propose that these embodied cognition views hold implications for clinical reasoning. This ... -
The role of environment on the formation of early-type galaxies
(2010-06-01)The effect of environment on galaxy formation poses one of the best constraints on the interplay between mass assembly and star formation in galaxies. We present here a detailed study of the stellar populations of a ... -
The role of expectancies in the placebo effect and their use in the delivery of health care : a systematic review
(NCCHTA, 1999)The original aim was to assess the nature and extent of the placebo effect and to consider how it may be harnessed within the NHS to improve the quality of care -
The Role of Experiences of the Body and Embodiment in Type 1 Diabetes and Disordered Eating
(2023-10-27)Type 1 Diabetes and Disordered Eating (T1DE) is a term used to describe the presence of disordered eating patterns that are specific to those with Type 1 Diabetes. Research has highlighted that conventional eating disorder ... -
The Role of Fission in Neutron Star Mergers and Its Impact on the r-Process Peaks
(2015-07-15)Comparing observational abundance features with nucleosynthesis predictions of stellar evolution or explosion simulations, we can scrutinize two aspects: (a) the conditions in the astrophysical production site and (b) the ... -
The role of fission in the r-process
(Elsevier, 2007)We have developed a full set of fission rates that include spontaneous fission, neutron-induced fission, beta-delayed fission and, neutrino-induced fission, that are supplemented with realistic distributions of fission ... -
The role of fission on neutron star mergers and its impact on the r-process peaks
(American Institute of Physics (AIP), 2016-06-21)The comparison between observational abundance features and those obtained from nucleosynthesis predictions of stellar evolution and/or explosion simulations can scrutinize two aspects: (a) the conditions in the astrophysical ... -
The Role of Forwarding-Looking Price Expectations Data published by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) in explaining and forecasting U.K. house prices.
(2011-12)The objective of this paper is to make use of the forward-looking price expectations data published by the RICS to explain and forecast U.K. house prices, three-months ahead. The Nationwide index is used to test the ... -
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 ...
