AbstractThis paper seeks to shed fresh light on the aesthetic and stylistic affiliations of Lycophron's Alexandra, approaching the poem from two distinct but...
BACKGROUND: Randomised trials of vitamin D supplementation for cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality have generally reported null findings. However, generalisability of results to individuals with low vitamin D status...
Abstract: A measurement of four branching-fraction ratios for three-body decays of B mesons involving two open-charm hadrons in the final state is presented. Run 1 and Run 2 pp collision data are used, recorded by the LHCb...

Abstract: The first full angular analysis of the B0→D∗−Ds∗+ decay is performed using 6 fb−1 of pp collision data collected with the LHCb experiment at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. The Ds∗+→Ds+γ and D*− → D¯0π− vector meson...

A measurement of four branching-fraction ratios for three-body decays of $B$
mesons involving two open-charm hadrons in the final state is presented. Run 1
and Run 2 $pp$ collision data are used, recorded by the LHCb experiment...

Abstract: Measurements of CP observables in B± → D(*)K± and B± → D(*)π± decays are presented, where D(∗) indicates a neutral D or D∗ meson that is an admixture of meson and anti-meson states. Decays of the D(∗) meson to the Dπ0...

Measurements of $CP$ observables in $B^\pm \to D K^\pm$ and $B^\pm \to D
\pi^\pm$ decays are presented, where $D$ represents a superposition of $D^0$
and $\bar{D}^0$ states. The $D$ meson is reconstructed in the three-body...
Observational studies suggest that vitamin D deficiency is associated with higher risk of pain. However, evidence on the effect of vitamin D supplementation on pain is limited and contradictory. The aim of this study was to...
A search for the $B^0_s \!\rightarrow D^{*\pm} D^\mp$ decay is performed
using proton-proton collision data at centre-of-mass energies of $7$, $8$ and
$13\,\text{TeV}$ collected by the LHCb experiment, corresponding to...
Vitamin D is an essential nutrient for bone health and may influence the risks of respiratory illness, adverse pregnancy outcomes, and chronic diseases of adulthood. Because many countries have a relatively low supply of foods...
Surfactant protein D (SP-D) is produced primarily in the lung and is involved in regulating pulmonary surfactants, lipid homeostasis and innate immunity. Circulating SP-D levels in blood are associated with chronic obstructive...
The decay-time-dependent $CP$ asymmetry in $B^0 \to D^{*\pm}D^{\mp}$ decays
is measured using a data set corresponding to an integrated luminosity of
$9$fb$^{-1}$ recorded by the LHCb detector in proton-proton collisions...
In the Maternal Vitamin D Osteoporosis Study (MAVIDOS) randomized trial, vitamin D supplementation in pregnancy did not lead to greater neonatal bone mass across the trial as a whole, but, in a prespecified secondary analysis by...
In his October 20, 2003 interview with Alan Garmendia, William D. Wolfe recollects about his time in the Navy during WWII, the Korean War, and Vietnam. Wolfe shares the details of his work in the Navy on an experimental...
A measurement of $CP$-violating observables is performed using the decays
$B^\pm\to D K^\pm$ and $B^\pm\to D \pi^\pm$, where the $D$ meson is
reconstructed in one of the self-conjugate three-body final states...
To clarify the physiological role of Na(+)-D-glucose cotransporter SGLT1 in small intestine and kidney, Sglt1(-/-) mice were generated and characterized phenotypically. After gavage of d-glucose, small intestinal glucose...
Searches for $CP$ violation in the two-body decays $D_{(s)}^{+}\rightarrow
