Effects of varenicline and cognitive bias modification on neural response to smoking-related cues

BACKGROUND: Smoking-related cues can trigger drug-seeking behaviors, and computer-based interventions that reduce cognitive biases towards such cues may be efficacious and cost-effective cessation aids. In order to optimize...

Synthesis, as Opposed to Separation, of Variables
A.S. Fokas, E.A. Spence
Jan 01, 0001
Every applied mathematician has used separation of variables. For a given boundary value problem (BVP) in two dimensions, the starting point of this powerful method is the separation of the given PDE into two ODEs. If the...

Unstable Mixed Convection Flow in a Horizontal Porous Channel with Uniform Wall Heat Flux
A. Barletta, D. A.S. Rees
Aug 15, 2019

Buoyancy-induced instability of the horizontal flow in a plane-parallel porous channel is analysed. A model of momentum transfer is adopted where a quadratic form-drag contribution is taken into account. The basic fluid flow...

Institutional Investors and the QE Portfolio Balance Channel
The operation of the portfolio balance channel has been emphasized by monetary policy makers as a key channel through which quantitative easing (QE) policies work. We assess whether the investment behavior of insurance companies...

Liouville quantum gravity and the Brownian map III
Abstract: Previous works in this series have shown that an instance of a 8/3-Liouville quantum gravity (LQG) sphere has a well-defined distance function, and that the resulting metric measure space (mm-space) agrees in law with...

Acute anxiety and social inference

BACKGROUND: Positive self-bias is thought to be protective for mental health. We previously found that the degree of positive bias when learning self-referential social evaluation decreases with increasing social anxiety. It...

Association of the Functional Movement Screen™ with match-injury burden in men’s community rugby union
Evidence supporting use of the Functional Movement Screen (FMSTM) to identify athletes’ risk of injury is equivocal. Furthermore, few studies account for exposure to risk during analysis. This study investigated the association...
