When a meta-analysis equals a single large-scale trial with meaningful follow-up
(2021-10-01)This commentary refers to ‘Cardiac mortality in patients randomised to elective coronary revascularisation plus medical therapy or medical therapy alone: a systematic review and meta-analysis’, by E.P. Navarese et al. ... -
GOODS-ALMA 2.0: Starbursts in the main sequence reveal compact star formation regulating galaxy evolution prequenching
(2022-03-29)Compact star formation appears to be generally common in dusty star-forming galaxies (SFGs). However, its role in the framework set by the scaling relations in galaxy evolution remains to be understood. In this work we ... -
Global Thrombosis Test: Occlusion Is Attributable to Shear-Induced Platelet Thrombus Formation
(2023-11-23)We read the paper by Clavería and co-workers with interest.1We strongly believe that the conclusions of their paper, suggesting that occlusion (occlusion time (OT)) in the global thrombosis test (GTT) is due to coagulation, ... -
High resolution spectroscopic follow-up of the most metal-poor candidates from SkyMapper DR1.1
(2021-11-01)We present chemical abundances for 21 elements (from Li to Eu) in 150 metal-poor Galactic stars spanning -4.1 < [Fe/H] < -2.1. The targets were selected from the SkyMapper survey and include 90 objects with [Fe/H] ≤ -3 of ... -
Virus Infection of Aspergillus fumigatus Compromises the Fungus in Intermicrobial Competition
(2021-04-16)Aspergillus and Pseudomonas compete in nature, and are the commonest bacterial and fungal pathogens in some clinical settings, such as the cystic fibrosis lung. Virus infections of fungi occur naturally. Effects on fungal ... -
Developing independent learners in maths using threshold concepts: transitioning from A-level to first year university maths
(2021-05-01)One of the key roles of a university is to create independent learners. To achieve this students need guidance on how to learn independently, help to build their academic confidence, and direction on learning the discipline. ... -
The High-redshift Clusters Occupied by Bent Radio AGN (COBRA) Survey: Investigating the Role of Environment on Bent Radio AGNs Using LOFAR
(2023-10-13)Bent radio active galactic nucleus (AGN) morphology depends on the density of the surrounding gas. However, bent sources are found inside and outside clusters, raising the question of how environment impacts bent AGN ... -
Twenty-five Years of Accretion onto the Classical T Tauri Star TW Hya
(2023-10-12)Accretion plays a central role in the physics that governs the evolution and dispersal of protoplanetary disks. The primary goal of this paper is to analyze the stability over time of the mass accretion rate onto TW Hya, ... -
Deaths in critical care and hospice-prevalence, trends, influences: a national decedent cohort study
(2021-08-11)Objectives: End-of-life and bereavement care support services differ in critical care and inpatient hospice settings. There are limited population-level data comparing deaths in these two locations. We aimed to compare the ... -
Critical success factors (CSFs) for motivating end-user stakeholder’s support for ensuring sustainability of PPP projects in Nigerian host communities
(2023-05-02)Purpose This study aims to investigate two public private partnership (PPP) road projects in Nigeria for exploring factors that can motivate end-user stakeholders for contributing towards sustaining a PPP project in the ... -
Exploring the ‘unexplained’ awarding gap through understanding BAME students’ experiences
(2021-12-09)A narrative method of enquiry was used to investigate the university experiences of Black, Asian and minority ethnic (BAME) students studying in a south-eastern UK business school. Participants were self-selecting ... -
Comparison of mechanical properties in interference screw fixation technique and organic anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction method: a biomechanical study
(2021-12-20)Background Bone and Site Hold Tendon Inside (BASHTI) technique is an organic implant-less technique for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction with some clinical advantages, such as speeding up the healing process, ... -
Clozapine-related obsessive-compulsive symptoms and their impact on wellbeing: a naturalistic longitudinal study
(2023-05-13)Background Obsessive–compulsive symptoms (OCS) are commonly associated with clozapine treatment but are frequently overlooked by clinicians despite their potential impact on patients' quality of life. In this study, we ... -
Quantifying the Risk to Health Care Workers of Cough as an Aerosol Generating Event in an Ambulance Setting: A Research Report

Star Formation and AGN Feedback in the Local Universe: Combining LOFAR and MaNGA
(2022-09-21)The effect of active galactic nuclei (AGN) on their host galaxies – in particular their levels of star formation – remains one of the key outstanding questions of galaxy evolution. Successful cosmological models of galaxy ... -
The Arecibo Galaxy Environment Survey (AGES) : XI. The expanded Abell 1367 field: Data catalogue and Hi census over the surveyed volume
(2022-09-23)Context. Many galaxy properties are known to correlate with the environment in which the galaxies are embedded. Their cold, neutral gas content, which is usually assessed through 21 cm H I observations, is related to many ... -
