SARS-CoV-2: characterisation and mitigation of risks associated with aerosol generating procedures in dental practices
(2021-01-07)
Introduction: The objectives were to characterise the particle size distribution of aerosols generated by standard dental aerosol generating procedures (AGPs) and to assess the impact of aerosol-management interventions ...
An International Comparison of EQ-5D-5L and EQ-5D-3L for Use in Cost-Effectiveness Analysis
(2021-01-06)
Objectives: To estimate the impact of using EQ5D-5L (5L) compared with EQ5D-3L (3L) in cost-effectiveness analyses in 6 countries with 3L and 5L values: Germany, Japan, Korea, The Netherlands, China, and Spain. Methods: ...
Surface interactions and viability of coronaviruses
(2021-01-06)
The recently emerged coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) has become a worldwide threat affecting millions of people, causing respiratory system related problems that can end up with extremely serious consequences. As the ...
Prevalence of Thrombotic Complications in ICU-Treated Patients With Coronavirus Disease 2019 Detected With Systematic CT Scanning
(2021-01-06)
Objective: Severe Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is associated with an extensive pneumonitis, and frequent coagulopathy. We sought the true incidence of thrombotic complications in critically ill patients with severe ...
Testing the feasibility of a sustainable preschool obesity prevention approach: A mixed-methods service evaluation of a volunteer-led HENRY programme
(2021-01-06)
Background Over the last 10 years HENRY has been working to reduce and prevent child obesity by training health and early years professionals to deliver its evidence-based programme to parents. The aim and unique contribution ...
The use of interactive technology an effective training method to improve combined strength and balance in community-dwelling older adults: a systematic review.
(figshare, 2021-01-05)
The number of older adults falling is increasing. Strength and balance training is recommended to reduce falls risk in this population. Low cost interventions, such as interactive technology (IT), are needed. This study ...
Recent progress in anodic oxidation of TiO2 nanotubes and enhanced photocatalytic performance: a short review
(2021-01-04)
By adjusting the oxidation voltage, electrolyte, anodizing time and other parameters, TiO2 nanotubes with high aspect ratio can be prepared by oxidation in organic system because anodic oxidation method has the advantage ...
On the Non-Intrusive Extraction of Residents’ Privacy and Security Sensitive Information from Energy Smart Meters
(2021-01-04)
Energy smart meters have become very popular in monitoring and smart energy management applications. However, the acquired measurements except the energy consumption information may also carry information about the residents’ ...
A VLBA Survey of radio stars in the Orion Nebula Cluster: II. Astrometry
(2021-01-04)
From Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) observations we previously identified a population of 123 young stellar systems with nonthermal radio emission toward the core of the Orion Nebula Cluster (ONC). We find optical sources ...
Reproducing sub-millimetre galaxy number counts with cosmological hydrodynamic simulations
(2021-01-04)
Matching the number counts of high-$z$ sub-millimetre-selected galaxies (SMGs) has been a long standing problem for galaxy formation models. In this paper, we use 3D dust radiative transfer to model the sub-mm emission ...
