Cannabidiol Is a Novel Modulator of Bacterial Membrane Vesicles
(2019-09-10)
Membrane vesicles (MVs) released from bacteria participate in cell communication and host-pathogen interactions. Roles for MVs in antibiotic resistance are gaining increased attention and in this study we investigated if ...
Impaired Spontaneous/Endogenous Fibrinolytic Status as New Cardiovascular Risk Factor? : JACC Review Topic of the Week
(2019-09-10)
Endogenous fibrinolysis is a powerful natural defense mechanism against lasting arterial thrombotic occlusion. Recent prospective studies have shown that impaired endogenous fibrinolysis (or hypofibrinolysis) can be detected ...
Highly replicable, low-cost, portable, general-purpose, high-resolution spectrometer with applications in stellar studies and exoplanet science
(SPIE, 2019-09-09)
High-resolution spectrometers have proven to be an important tool for astronomical observations and continue to have an ever expanding set of applications, such as high resolution IFS (Integral Field Spectroscopy). With ...
Retrieval of ice-nucleating particle concentrations from lidar observations and comparison with UAV in situ measurements
(2019-09-09)
Aerosols that are efficient ice-nucleating particles (INPs) are crucial for the formation of cloud ice via heterogeneous nucleation in the atmosphere. The distribution of INPs on a large spatial scale and as a function of ...
EXOhSPEC collimator mechanical design
(SPIE, 2019-09-09)
The Exoplanet High-Resolution Spectrograph (EXOhSPEC) is a high-resolution spectrograph for the characterisation of exoplanets with the Thai National Telescope. The folded version of this instrument comprises one triplet ...
EXOhSPEC folded design optimization and performance estimation
(SPIE, 2019-09-09)
The EXOplanet high resolution SPECtrograph (EXOhSPEC) instrument is an echelle spectrograph dedicated to the detection of exoplanets by using the radial velocity method using 2m class telescopes. This spectrograph is ...
The Importance of Self-excitation in Spiking Neural Networks Evolved to Recognize Temporal Patterns
(Springer Nature, 2019-09-09)
Biological and artificial spiking neural networks process information by changing their states in response to the temporal patterns of input and of the activity of the network itself. Here we analyse very small networks, ...
Can physical activity support young people after the death of a parent? The BABYSTEPS Project
(2019-09-07)
Background: Annually, 41,000 UK children and young people are parentally bereaved. Grief is an individual process and must be supported properly. Many mental health aspects that cross over with grief outcomes (i.e. anxiety ...
Deciding Reachability for Piecewise Constant Derivative Systems on Orientable Manifolds
(Springer, 2019-09-06)
A hybrid automaton is a finite state machine combined with some k real-valued continuous variables, where k determines the number of the automaton dimensions. This formalism is widely used for modelling safety-critical ...
