This paper reports on a program-level teaching support initiative that was implemented in a Health Sciences undergraduate degree with a large and highly casualised teaching team. It has been argued that to improve studen...

Abstract Background Triage at major incidents has traditionally relied on assessing physiology, and in the UK, this role has usually been performed by healthcare responders. However, recent major incidents have shown tha...

Abstract Glucocorticoid-producing cells of the adrenal cortex (i.e. zona fasciculata, zF) constitute the critical effectors of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, mediating the mammalian stress response. With glucoc...

Abstract Background Traumatic skull fractures (TSF) are relatively frequent in dogs and cats, but little information is available regarding their clinical and imaging features. Hypothesis/Objectives To describe the neuro...

Reirradiation is increasingly used for recurrent and new primary cancers, but dedicated planning tools are limited. We integrated deformable image registration and radiobiologically consistent dose accumulation into plan...

Abstract This is the protocol for an evidence and gap map. The objective of this EGM is to identify and map all primary studies (including randomised and cluster randomised trials) and systematic reviews on universal, sc...

Abstract The catalytic decomposition of ammonia under mild conditions is a promising route for green hydrogen production. However, conventional dissociative ammonia decomposition pathways over metal sites are suffering f...

Abstract Background Medical students are exposed to human suffering more frequently and intensely than before they began their training, but they are often not sufficiently educated for these experiences. To our knowledg...

Abstract In power generation and industries where CO2 emissions are unavoidable, carbon capture, utilisation, and storage is an important tool to offset climate change. Many carbon capture agents are blends of aqueous am...

Mi propósito es analizar como "la democracia", una forma de gobierno que ha evolucionado en el seno de la comunidad de seres humanos, puede ser aplicada en un contexto muy diferente, el de la colectividad de Estados. S...

This article discusses: the doctrinal content of the group of ideas known as ‘new public management’(NPM); the intellectual provenance of those ideas; explanations for their apparent persuasiveness in the 1980 s; and...

Abstract: We present the derivation of a new molecular mechanical force field for simulating the structures, conformational energies, and interaction energies of proteins, nucleic acids, and many related organic molecule...

BACKGROUND: Vitamin K antagonists are highly effective in preventing stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation but have several limitations. Apixaban is a novel oral direct factor Xa inhibitor that has been shown to re...

If radiocarbon measurements are to be used at all for chronological purposes, we have to use statistical methods for calibration. The most widely used method of calibration can be seen as a simple application of Bayesian...

An attentional mechanism has lately been used to improve neural machine translation (NMT) by selectively focusing on parts of the source sentence during translation. However, there has been little work exploring useful a...

Organic-inorganic perovskites have shown promise as high-performance absorbers in solar cells, first as a coating on a mesoporous metal oxide scaffold and more recently as a solid layer in planar heterojunction architect...

The IntCal09 and Marine09 radiocarbon calibration curves have been revised utilizing newly available and updated data sets from 14 C measurements on tree rings, plant macrofossils, speleothems, corals, and foraminifera. ...

Class-tested and coherent, this textbook teaches classical and web information retrieval, including web search and the related areas of text classification and text clustering from basic concepts. It gives an up-to-date ...
