Weak Sequential Completeness of Uniform Algebras (2024)
Journal Article
We give a simple, elementary proof that a uniform algebra is weakly sequentially complete if and only if it is finite-dimensional.
The role of religion in shaping the values of nature (2024)
Journal Article
Environmental discourse frequently understands the values of nature as being instrumental, intrinsic, or relational and measured in biophysical, sociocultural, or monetary terms. Yet these specific values and value indicators are underpinned by world... Read More about The role of religion in shaping the values of nature.
The effect of element interactivity and mental rehearsal on working memory resource depletion and the spacing effect (2024)
Journal Article
The spacing effect occurs when learning with rest periods is superior to learning without rest periods. Cognitive load theory has explained this superiority by working memory resource depletion, under which resources are depleted during cognitive act...

Life after crime and punishment? Lifestyles changes and quaternary desistance (2024)
Journal Article
Studies of why people stop offending have been one of the considerable growth areas of criminology and life-course studies since the early-1990s. Initially the research focused on assessing the extent to which people who had offending did cease offen... Read More about Life after crime and punishment? Lifestyles changes and quaternary desistance.
Asynchronous learning-based output feedback sliding mode control for semi-Markov jump systems: a descriptor approach (2024)
Journal Article
This paper presents an asynchronous output-feedback control strategy of semi-Markovian systems via sliding mode-based learning technique. Compare with most literature results that require exact prior knowledge of system state and mode information, an...

A polygenic risk score for alcohol-related cirrhosis among heavy drinkers with European ancestry (2024)
Journal Article
Background & Aims: Polygenic Risk Scores (PRS) based on results from genome-wide association studies offer the prospect of risk stratification for many common and complex diseases. We developed a PRS for alcohol-related cirrhosis by comparing SNPs am... Read More about A polygenic risk score for alcohol-related cirrhosis among heavy drinkers with European ancestry.
Shared Adversaries in the Anglo-American Special Relationship: From the Cold War to Contemporary Threats (2024)
Journal Article
The Anglo-American Special Relationship has been at its most vibrant when the two countries have shared a common adversary. The Cold War confrontation with the Soviet Union and its Warsaw Pact allies, and then Islamist terrorism during the ‘War on Te...

The effectiveness of digital interventions for self-management of chronic pain in employment settings: a systematic review. (2024)
Journal Article
Introduction Chronic pain affects over a quarter of the workforce with high economic burden for individuals, employers, and healthcare services. Access to work-related advice for people with chronic pain is variable. This systematic review aims to...

A single-cell atlas of pig gastrulation as a resource for comparative embryology (2024)
Journal Article
Cell-fate decisions during mammalian gastrulation are poorly understood outside of rodent embryos. The embryonic disc of pig embryos mirrors humans, making them a useful proxy for studying gastrulation. Here we present a single-cell transcriptomic at...

Friction and heat partition coefficients in incremental sheet forming process (2024)
Journal Article
To understand the thermo-mechanical behaviour in incremental sheet forming (ISF), it is important to precisely determine the interfacial and thermal-relevant parameters including coefficient of friction (COF) and heat partition coefficient (HPC), and... Read More about Friction and heat partition coefficients in incremental sheet forming process.
MicroRNA biogenesis is broadly disrupted by inhibition of the splicing factor SF3B1 (2024)
Journal Article
In animals, microRNA (miRNA) biogenesis begins with cotranscriptional clea v age of the primary (pri-)miRNA b y the Microprocessor comple x. Cotranscriptional splicing has been shown to influence Microprocessor clea v age when miRNAs are hosted in in...

Valence Shell electronically excited states of 1-Phenylimidazole and 1-Benzylimidazole (2024)
Journal Article
The valence shell electronically excited states of 1-phenylimidazole and 1-benzylimidazole have been studied by employing synchrotron radiation to measure the absolute photoabsorption cross-section of each molecule, from threshold up to an energy of...

Work-related smartphone use during off-job hours and work-life conflict: a scoping review (2024)
Journal Article
Over recent decades the use of smartphones for work purposes has burgeoned both within and beyond working hours. The aim of the study was to conduct a scoping review to explore the association between the use of smartphone technology for work purpose...

Breathing space amidst the permanence of racism in the academy (2024)
Journal Article
This paper presents evidence that sheds light on both the limitations and the possibilities of race-focused staff forums that have formed across UK higher education as part of a response to equality legislation. Based on interviews conducted with thi... Read More about Breathing space amidst the permanence of racism in the academy.
Modeling reveals synergies among root traits for phosphorus acquisition in pearl millet (2024)
Journal Article
Pearl millet is a key food security grain crop in the world's drylands due to its tolerance to abiotic stresses. However, its yield remains low and is negatively impacted by climate change. Root phenes are potential targets to improve crop productivi... Read More about Modeling reveals synergies among root traits for phosphorus acquisition in pearl millet.
Enhancing the thermal cyclic reliability of salt-based shape-stabilized phase change materials by in-situ SiO2–C interconnectivity in rice husk carbon (2024)
Journal Article
Utilizing salt-based shape-stabilized phase change materials (ss-PCMs) for high-temperature thermal energy storage stands as a pivotal avenue in realizing carbon neutrality. However, the performance of ss-PCMs significantly deteriorates after thermal...

Sub-optimal paternal diet at the time of mating disrupts maternal adaptations to pregnancy in the late gestation mouse (2024)
Journal Article
Pregnancy represents a stage during which maternal physiology and homeostatic regulation undergo dramatic change and adaptation. The fundamental purpose of these adaptations are to ensure the survival of her offspring through adequate nutrient provis...
