Maternal genome-wide DNA methylation profiling in gestational diabetes shows distinctive disease-associated changes relative to matched healthy pregnancies (2018)
Journal Article

Several recent reports have described associations between gestational diabetes (GDM) and changes to the epigenomic landscape where the DNA samples were derived from either cord or placental sources. We employed genome-wide 450Karray analysis to dete...

The hypoxic tumour microenvironment (2018)
Journal Article

Cancer progression often benefits from the selective conditions present in the tumour microenvironment, such as the presence of cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs), deregulated ECM deposition, expanded vascularisation and repression of the immune re...

Writing and reading antiferromagnetic Mn2Au by Néel spin-orbit torques and large anisotropic magnetoresistance (2018)
Journal Article

Using antiferromagnets as active elements in spintronics requires the ability to manipulate and read-out the Néel vector orientation. Here we demonstrate for Mn2Au, a good conductor with a high ordering temperature suitable for applications, reproduc...

NICE guidance on sepsis is of limited value in postoperative colorectal patients: the scores that cry ‘wolf!’ (2018)
Journal Article

Background and aims Late recognition of sepsis and consequent death remains a problem. To address this, the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence has published updated guidance recommending the use of the Quick Sequential Organ Failure A...

Selective Carbon Dioxide Hydrogenation Driven by Ferromagnetic RuFe Nanoparticles in Ionic Liquids (2018)
Journal Article

© 2018 American Chemical Society. CO2 is selectively hydrogenated to HCO2H or hydrocarbons (HCs) by RuFe nanoparticles (NPs) in ionic liquids (ILs) under mild reaction conditions. The generation of HCO2H occurs in ILs containing basic anions, whereas... Read More about Selective Carbon Dioxide Hydrogenation Driven by Ferromagnetic RuFe Nanoparticles in Ionic Liquids.

Novel Entamoeba findings in nonhuman primates (2018)
Journal Article

In addition to well-known human-infecting species, Entamoeba species not found in humans have been identified recently in nonhuman primates (NHPs). Importantly, it has become clear that the organism identified as Entamoeba histolytica in NHPs is usua... Read More about Novel Entamoeba findings in nonhuman primates.

Adaptive spectral tracking for coherence estimation: the z-tracker (2018)
Journal Article

Objective: A major challenge in non-stationary signal analysis is reliable estimation of correlation. Neurophysiological recordings can be many minutes in duration with data that exhibits correlation which changes over different time scales. Local sm...

Teaching the science of learning (2018)
Journal Article

The science of learning has made a considerable contribution to our understanding of effective teaching and learning strategies. However, few instructors outside of the field are privy to this research. In this Tutorial Review, we focus on six specif... Read More about Teaching the science of learning.

Atom chips with free-standing two-dimensional electron gases: advantages and challenges (2018)
Journal Article

In this work, we consider the advantages and challenges of using free-standing two-dimensional electron gases (2DEG) as active components in atom chips for manipulating ultracold ensembles of alkali atoms. We calculate trapping parameters achievable... Read More about Atom chips with free-standing two-dimensional electron gases: advantages and challenges.

Real-time characterization of large earthquakes using the predominant period derived from 1Hz GPS data (2018)
Journal Article

Earthquake early warning (EEW) systems’ performance is driven by the trade-off between the need for a rapid alert and the accuracy of each solution. A challenge for many EEW systems has been the magnitude saturation for large events (Mw>7) and the re...

Finite indentation of highly curved elastic shells (2018)
Journal Article

Experimentally measuring the elastic properties of thin biological surfaces is non-trivial, particularly when they are curved. One technique that may be used is the indentation of a thin sheet of material by a rigid indenter, whilst measuring the app... Read More about Finite indentation of highly curved elastic shells.

An hp-adaptive Newton-discontinuous-Galerkin finite element approach for semilinear elliptic boundary value problems (2018)
Journal Article

In this paper we develop an hp-adaptive procedure for the numerical solution of general second-order semilinear elliptic boundary value problems, with possible singular perturbation. Our approach combines both adaptive Newton schemes and an hp-versio...

Ho?ava gravity after GW170817 (2018)
Journal Article

The recent detection of gravitational wave GW170817 has placed a severe bound on the deviation of the speed of gravitational waves from the speed of light. We explore the consequences of this detection for Ho?ava gravity.

The construction of marketing measures: The case of viewability (2018)
Journal Article

© The Author(s) 2018. This study seeks to develop a critical understanding of marketing measures. Marketing measures inform a variety of marketing practices and have been subject to ethical, discursive and epistemological critique. Informed by a rang...

Study on High Efficiency Permanent Magnet Linear Synchronous Motor for Maglev (2018)
Journal Article

This paper discusses the traction performance of a single-side linear induction motor and a single-side coreless Halbach permanent magnet linear synchronous motor (PM-LSM) for the mid- and low-speed maglev train. Based on a typical mid- and low-speed... Read More about Study on High Efficiency Permanent Magnet Linear Synchronous Motor for Maglev.

‘But I’d rather have raisins!’: Exploring a hybridized approach to multimodal interaction in the case of a minimally verbal child with autism (2018)
Journal Article

This article explores a ‘hybridized approach’ to multimodal research drawing on video data of classroom communication involving children diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder. The focus is a short video of ‘Luke’, aged six, who at snack time declin...

Climatic and evolutionary factors shaping geographical gradients of species richness in Anolis lizards (2018)
Journal Article

Understanding the climatic and historical factors shaping species richness is a major goal of ecology and biogeography. Consensus on how climate affects species richness is still lacking, but four potential and non-exclusive explanations have emerged...

Realising governmentality: pastoral power, governmental discourse and the (re)constitution of subjectivities (2018)
Journal Article

Michel Foucault’s concept of governmentality has been hugely influential in sociology and other disciplinary fields. However, its application has been criticised by those who suggest it neglects agency, and gives overwhelming power to governmental di...
