Global financial uncertainty shocks and external monetary vulnerability: the role of dominance, exposure, and history
(2023-10-30)The paper investigates the role of country-specific factors in external monetary vulnerability to global uncertainty shocks. We identify three structural determinants that may shape cross-country heterogeneity in the ... -
Do petrol prices rise faster than they fall? Evidence from the UK retail and wholesale petrol sectors
(2023-11-30)This study investigates the presence of price asymmetries in the UK retail and wholesale petrol sectors over the period of January 2020- July 2022. The scope of this research is to explore whether petrol prices rise faster ... -
The Impact of Semicarbazide Sensitive Amine Oxidase Activity on Rat Aortic Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells
(2023-03-03)Semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidase (SSAO) is both a soluble- and membrane-bound transmembrane protein expressed in the vascular endothelial and in smooth muscle cells. In vascular endothelial cells, SSAO contributes to ... -
The Blossom Gang: co-producing research on FGM with second-generation young people in the UK
(2023-08-16)Background Female genital mutilation (FGM) is a practice that involves the removal of external female genitalia and is widely known as a violation of human rights. The custom is illegal in the United Kingdom (UK) and carries ... -
P2Y12 Inhibitor Monotherapy Combined With Colchicine Following PCI in ACS Patients: The MACT Pilot Study
(2023-08-14)This proof-of-concept pilot trial investigated the feasibility of ticagrelor or prasugrel P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy combined with colchicine immediately after PCI in ACS patients. The day after PCI, aspirin was replaced ... -
Wind Turbine Active Fault Tolerant Control Based on Backstepping Active Disturbance Rejection Control and a Neurofuzzy Detector
(2023-07-18)Wind energy conversion systems have become an important part of renewable energy history due to their accessibility and cost-effectiveness. Offshore wind farms are seen as the future of wind energy, but they can be very ... -
The Participation of Trans Women in Competitive Fencing and Implications on Fairness: A Physiological Perspective Narrative Review
(2023-07-17)Debate has surrounded whether the participation of trans women in female sporting categories is fair, specifically the retained male physiological advantage due to increased testosterone compared to cisgender females. ... -
Influence of Conventional Shot Peening Treatment on the Service Life Improvement of Bridge Steel Piles Subjected to Sea Wave Impact
(2023-08-09)The first goal of the current study is to estimate the fatigue life of the middle steel piles of an integrated bridge installed in water and subject to the impact of sea waves. In the following, the authors have tried to ... -
Is There a Risk for Semaglutide Misuse? Focus on the Food and Drug Administration’s FDA Adverse Events Reporting System (FAERS) Pharmacovigilance Dataset
