Patient Preferences for Longer or More Frequent In-Center Hemodialysis Regimens: A Multicenter Discrete Choice Study
(2022-10-23)
Rationale & Objective Longer and more frequent hemodialysis sessions are associated with both benefits and harms. However, their relative importance to patients and how they influence acceptability for patients have not ...
Staggered oriented airfoil shaped pin-fin heat sink: Investigating the efficacy of novel water based ferric oxide-silica hybrid nanofluid
(2022-09-15)
Nowadays, electronic components are one of the essential parts of almost every smart device. To efficiently transfer the desired amount of heat, recent studies have focused on investigating the potential of advanced thermal ...
Objects with motor valence affect the visual processing of human body parts: Evidence from behavioural and ERP studies
(2022-08-01)
Recent findings indicate that the mental representation of an object contains crucial information about the motor interactions relevant for its intended functional use, suggesting a possible action-specific link with body ...
Impact of rGO-coated PEEK and lattice on bone implant
(2022-08-01)
The composite coating can effectively inhibit bacterial proliferation and promote the expression of bone-building genes in-vitro. Therefore, a novel production was used to produce poly-ether-ether-ketone, and reduced ...
A memristive non-smooth dynamical system with coexistence of bimodule periodic oscillation
(2022-08-01)
In order to explore the bursting oscillations and the formation mechanism of memristive non-smooth systems, a third-order memristor model and an external periodic excitation are introduced into a non-smooth dynamical system, ...
A Further Reply to Jean-Philippe Robé on the Firm
(2022-07-02)
Despite agreement on many points, including our shared insistence that 'corporation' and 'firm' are different concepts, Jean-Philippe Robé still maintains that they are mutually exclusive: no corporation is a firm, and no ...
Proceedings of Abstracts 13th International Conference on Air Quality: Science and Application
(University of Hertfordshire, 2022-07-01)
The presentations at the Conference address the diversity of scales, processes and interactions affecting air pollution and its impact on health and the environment. As usual, the conference is stimulating cross-fertilisation ...
Comparative experimental evaluation and thermodynamic analysis of the possibility of using degraded C15-C50 crankcase oil waste as thermal storage materials in solar drying systems
(2022-07-01)
The study presents a comparative thermodynamic analysis of degraded C15-C50 grade crankcase oil (DCO) and paraffin thermal storage (PTS) as heat storage materials in solar drying. The goal is to convert DCO from waste to ...
Childhood trauma and schizotypy in non-clinical samples: A systematic review and meta-analysis
(2022-06-29)
The association of early life adversities and psychosis symptoms is well documented in clinical populations; however, whether this relationship also extends into subclinical psychosis remains unclear. In particular, are ...
The use of social robots with children and young people on the autism spectrum: A systematic review and meta-analysis
(2022-06-22)
Background: Robot-mediated interventions show promise in supporting the development of children on the autism spectrum. Objectives: In this systematic review and meta-analysis, we summarize key features of available evidence ...
