Understanding the Evolving Nature of Novel Psychoactive Substances: Mapping 10 Years of Research
(2023-09-28)Novel psychoactive substances (NPS) is an umbrella term used to describe a heterogeneous group of compounds that mimic the effects of existing drugs and whose demand and use rapidly emerge, change, or even vanish in the ... -
Facilitating reflection: a review and synthesis of the factors enabling effective facilitation of reflective practice
(2022-08-30)Reflective practice is an inherently personal and relational process, occurring privately within people, and publicly, between people. Consequently, given it positively impacts on professional practice, it has become a ... -
Development of a New Dislodgeable Foliar Residue Analytical Laboratory Method for Pesticides
(2022-10-11)The dislodgeable foliar residue (DFR) is the amount of pesticide that exists on foliage after the pesticide has dried and which could dislodge to the skin or clothes of workers and is a key parameter for non-dietary risk ... -
Decoupling of internal and external workload during a marathon: An analysis of durability in 82,303 recreational runner
(2022-09-30)Aim: This study characterised the decoupling of internal-to-external workload in marathon running and investigated whether decoupling magnitude and onset could improve predictions of marathon performance. Methods: The ... -
Effectiveness of Web-Based Personalized Nutrition Advice for Adults Using the eNutri Web App: Evidence From the EatWellUK Randomized Controlled Trial
(2022-04-25)Background: Evidence suggests eating behaviours and adherence to dietary guidelines can be improved using nutrition-related apps. Apps delivering personalised nutrition (PN) advice to users can provide individual support ... -
Determinants of Endogenous Fibrinolysis in Whole Blood Under High Shear in Patients With Myocardial Infarction
(2022-11-14)Hypofibrinolysis is a recently-recognized risk factor for recurrent cardiovascular events in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), but the mechanistic determinants of this are not well understood. ... -
On the α /Fe Bimodality of the M31 Disks
(2023-10-10)An outstanding question is whether the α/Fe bimodality exists in disk galaxies other than in the Milky Way. Here we present a bimodality using our state-of-the-art galactic chemical evolution models that can explain various ... -
Fitting an Equation to Data Impartially
(2023-09-18)We consider the problem of fitting a relationship (e.g., a potential scientific law) to data involving multiple variables. Ordinary (least squares) regression is not suitable for this because the estimated relationship ... -
Exploring Computer Science Students’ Perception of ChatGPT in Higher Education: A Descriptive and Correlation Study
(2023-09-11)ChatGPT is an emerging tool that can be employed in many activities including in learning/teaching in universities. Like many other tools, it has its benefits and its drawbacks. If used properly, it can improve learning, ... -
Can 100% Pasture-Based Livestock Farming Produce Enough Ruminant Meat to Meet the Current Consumption Demand in the UK?
(2023-09-01)Grassland is grouped into temporary, permanent, and rough grazing types in the United Kingdom (UK), making up more than 60% of the national agricultural land area. It provides avenues for grazed fodder or ensiled forage ... -
Exact and Soft Successive Refinement of the Information Bottleneck
(2023-09-19)The information bottleneck (IB) framework formalises the essential requirement for efficient information processing systems to achieve an optimal balance between the complexity of their representation and the amount of ... -
JEMS: A Deep Medium-band Imaging Survey in the Hubble Ultra Deep Field with JWST NIRCam and NIRISS
(2023-10-09)We present JWST Extragalactic Medium-band Survey, the first public medium-band imaging survey carried out using JWST/NIRCam and NIRISS. These observations use ∼2 and ∼4 μm medium-band filters (NIRCam F182M, F210M, F430M, ... -
Heat transfer correlations and pressure drop dynamics of palm fibre wetting media for evaporative cooling at different air flow rates
(2023-10-03)The thermal and flow resistance properties of wetting pads play a key role in how effective direct evaporative cooling (DEC) systems Perform. To make an informed decision, it's crucial to study the heat transfer properties ... -
Recommendation on the nomenclature for anticoagulants: updated communication from the International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis Scientific and Standardization Commitee on the Control of Anticoagulation
(2023-05-30)Oral anticoagulation therapy has evolved beyond vitamin K antagonists to include oral direct thrombin inhibitors and factor Xa inhibitors. Collectively known as “direct oral anticoagulants,” this class of medications ... -
VICTORIA project: The LOFAR HBA Virgo Cluster Survey
(2023-06-02)Context. The Virgo cluster is the nearest (d = 16.5 Mpc) massive (M ≥ 1014 M) galaxy cluster and is therefore a prime target for studying astrophysical processes in dense large-scale environments. In the radio band, we can ... -
Contextual Factors That Impact the Implementation of Patient Portals With a Focus on Older People in Acute Care Hospitals : Scoping Review
(2023-02-03)Background: Older people are the highest users of health services but are less likely to use a patient portal than younger people. Objective: This scoping review aimed to identify and synthesize the literature on contextual ... -
Higher current algebras, homotopy Manin triples, and a rectilinear adelic complex
(2023-09-30)The notion of a Manin triple of Lie algebras admits a generalization, to dg Lie algebras, in which various properties are required to hold only up to homotopy. This paper introduces two classes of examples of such homotopy ... -
Exposure to ambient air pollution and elevated blood levels of gamma-glutamyl transferase in a large Austrian cohort
(2023-07-20)Gamma glutamyl transferase (GGT) is related to oxidative stress and an indicator for liver damage. We investigated the association between air pollution and GGT in a large Austrian cohort (N = 116,109) to better understand ... -
