Categorising interventions to enhance vaccine uptake or reduce vaccine hesitancy in the United Kingdom (UK): A systematic review and meta-analysis (2024)
Journal Article

Background Vaccination is one of the most important public health interventions to combat infectious disease. However, vaccine hesitancy prevents us reaching the global target of vaccine uptake (e.g., 75 % of influenza vaccination in at-risk groups)...

High endemic freshwater mussel (Bivalvia: Unionida) diversity in western Borneo, with description of three new species (2024)
Journal Article

The freshwater mussels (Bivalvia: Unionida) of the biodiversity hotspot Sundaland are experiencing severe anthropogenic threats, whilst their diversity and distribution remain poorly understood. Here, we present the first modern-day data on Unionida... Read More about High endemic freshwater mussel (Bivalvia: Unionida) diversity in western Borneo, with description of three new species.

Efficient High-Order Space-Angle-Energy Polytopic Discontinuous Galerkin Finite Element Methods for Linear Boltzmann Transport (2024)
Journal Article

We introduce an hp–version discontinuous Galerkin finite element method (DGFEM) for the linear Boltzmann transport problem. A key feature of this new method is that, while offering arbitrary order convergence rates, it may be implemented in an almost...

Prevalence, Incidence, and Mortality of Raynaud’s Phenomenon, Sjögren’s Syndrome, and Scleroderma: an umbrella review of systematic reviews (2024)
Journal Article

Objectives: To comprehensively review systematic reviews of prevalence, incidence, and mortality of Raynaud’s, Sjögren’s, and Scleroderma, and to identify any research gaps. Methods: An umbrella review of English language systematic reviews was unde... Read More about Prevalence, Incidence, and Mortality of Raynaud’s Phenomenon, Sjögren’s Syndrome, and Scleroderma: an umbrella review of systematic reviews.

How does mentoring occupational therapists improve intervention fidelity in a randomised controlled trial? A realist evaluation (2024)
Journal Article

Background: Integrating complex interventions within healthcare settings can be challenging. Mentoring can be embedded within a randomised controlled trial (RCT) to upskill and support those delivering the intervention. This study aimed to understand...

Stem-borne Roots as a Framework to Study Trans-organogenesis and Uncover Fundamental Insights in Developmental Biology (2024)
Journal Article

Plants have a remarkable ability to generate organs with a different identity to the parent organ, called “trans-organogenesis”. An example of trans-organogenesis is the formation of roots from stems (a type of adventitious root), which is the first... Read More about Stem-borne Roots as a Framework to Study Trans-organogenesis and Uncover Fundamental Insights in Developmental Biology.

Locative grounding harmony (2024)
Journal Article

In this paper, we explore locative grounding harmony, according to which the location of the grounds mirrors the location of the grounded. We proceed in three stages. First, we clarify the notion of locative harmony and describe different locative ha... Read More about Locative grounding harmony.

Monitoring the risk of a tailings dam collapse through spectral analysis of satellite InSAR time-series data (2024)
Journal Article

Slope failures possess destructive power that can cause significant damage to both life and infrastructure. Monitoring slopes prone to instabilities is therefore critical in mitigating the risk posed by their failure. The purpose of slope monitoring...

A Meta-Analysis and Systematic Review of the Use of Transition Tools for Patients Transitioning from Paediatric to Adult Rheumatology Services (2024)
Journal Article

Introduction: Transition from paediatric to adult care can be challenging, but transition tools are designed to increase successful rates of transfer. Objectives: Conduct a meta-analysis and systematic review into the use of transition tools on tran...

Immunomodulation and fibroblast dynamics driving nociceptive joint pain within inflammatory synovium: Unravelling mechanisms for therapeutic advancements in osteoarthritis (2024)
Journal Article

Objective Synovitis is a widely accepted sign of osteoarthritis (OA), characterised by tissue hyperplasia, where increased infiltration of immune cells and proliferation of resident fibroblasts adopt a pro-inflammatory phenotype, and increased the p...

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...
