Merleau-Ponty's Phenomenology of Perception
(2010)In Merleau-Ponty's "Preface" to his Phenomenologie de la Perception (1945), he asks "What is phenomenology?" - and he suggests that it is still in a process of being defined. Not so untimely, this remains true today, and ... -
MERLIN polarimetry of the OH masers in IRAS 20406+2953
(2004)We present the third in a series of results from our programme of the detection and measurement of magnetic fields in protoplanetary nebulae (PPN), using full-polarization MERLIN observations of OH masers. These are the ... -
MERLIN polarimetry of the OH masers in OH17.7-2.0
(2003)We report the first results of our study of magnetic fields in protoplanetary nebula candidates. Such fields may have important implications for the currently accepted Generalized Interacting Stellar Winds path to planetary ... -
Mesenchymal stromal cell derived extracellular vesicles reduce hypoxia-ischaemia induced perinatal injury
(2019-03-19)Background: Neonatal hypoxic-ischemic (HI) insult is a leading cause of disability and death in newborns, with therapeutic hypothermia being the only currently available clinical intervention. Thus there is a great need ... -
Message Driven Programming with S-Net: Methodology and Performance
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2010)Development and implementation of the coordination language S-NET has been reported previously. In this paper we apply the S-NET design methodology to a computer graphics problem. We demonstrate (i) how a complete separation ... -
The Message is the Medium- A Case Study in Cultural Change
(University of Hertfordshire, 2001)In attempts to secure competitive advantage in an ever more competitive, and globalised market place, the trend in management thinking has been to introduce a number of initiatives aimed at developing a corporate culture ... -
Meta-analysis of cognitive behaviour therapy and selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors for the treatment of hypochondriasis: Implications for trial design
(2022-10-30)Background Classification of hypochondriasis as an obsessive-compulsive and related disorder in the International Classification of Diseases 11th Revision (ICD-11) has generated new heuristics for treatment of this common, ... -
Meta-analysis of data on costs from trials of counselling in primary care: using individual patient data to overcome sample size limitations in economic analyses
(2003-06-07)Objective: To assess the feasibility of overcoming sample size limitations in economic analyses of clinical trials through meta-analysis of data on individual patients from multiple trials. Design: Meta-analysis of individual ... -
A meta-analysis of mass-media tests of extrasensory perception
(1999-05)Some scientists have argued that recent meta-analyses of many different types of parapsychological study suggest that extrasensory perception (ESP) might exist, albeit as a small effect. Large-scale ESP experiments conducted ... -
A meta-analysis of perceptions of defeat and entrapment in depression, anxiety problems, posttraumatic stress disorder, and suicidality
(2015-09-15)Background: There is a burgeoning literature examining perceptions of being defeated or trapped in different psychiatric disorders. The disorders most frequently examined to date are depression, anxiety problems, posttraumatic ... -
A meta-analysis of sugarbeet yield responses to nitrogen fertilizer measured in England since 1980
(2009-06)The data from 161 experiments testing the response of sugarbeet yield to nitrogen fertilizer were assembled in a database. Three commonly used N response models (Mitscherlich, linear plus exponential and bilinear) were ... -
A meta-analytic review of category naming in Alzheimer's disease
(2007)Patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) experience word-finding difficulties that become increasingly pronounced as pathological changes accrue in the brain. One question that has received increasing attention over the last ... -
Metabolism of AF1 (KNEFIRF-NH2) in the nematode, Ascaris suum, by aminopeptidases, endopeptidase and deaminase enzymes
(1996-01)We have studied the metabolism and inactivation of AF1 (KNEFIRF-NH2) by membranes prepared from the locomotory muscle of Ascaris suum. FIRF-NH2, NEFIRF-NH2 and KNEFIRF were identified as three primary degradation products, ... -
Metabolism of Butoxyethanol in excised human skin in vitro
(2008)Glycol ethers are widely used in industrial and household applications because their chemical and physical properties make them versatile solvents, miscible with both water and organic media. Due to the ease with which the ... -
Metabolism of captopril carboxyl ester derivatives for percutaneous absorption
(2009)To determine the metabolism of captopril n-carboxyl derivatives and how this may impact on their use as transdermal prodrugs. The pharmacological activity of the ester derivatives was also characterised in order to compare ... -
Metabolism of ticagrelor in patients with acute coronary syndromes.
(2018-09-06)Ticagrelor is a state-of-the-art antiplatelet agent used for the treatment of patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS). Unlike remaining oral P2Y12 receptor inhibitors ticagrelor does not require metabolic activation ... -
Metabolite identification in drug discovery
(2003-01-01)Recent developments in the technologies and approaches to identify metabolites in a drug discovery environment are reviewed. Samples may be generated using either in vitro systems - typically, but not exclusively, liver ... -
Metacognitive beliefs mediate the relationship between Anxiety Sensitivity and traits of Obsessive-Compulsive Symptoms
(2020-04-26)Background: Metacognition has been shown as a key contributor to Obsessive Compulsive Disorder as well as other anxiety-related disorders, yet its role in the development and maintenance of these disorders remains unclear. ...
