The relationship between back pain and mortality in older adults varies with disability and gender
BACKGROUND: This study aims to determine whether older adults reporting back pain (BP) are at increased risk of premature mortality, specifically, to examine the association with disabling/non-disabling pain separately. METHODS...
Multi-instrumental observations of a positive gigantic jet produced by a winter thunderstorm in Europe
At 2336:56 UTC on 12 December 2009, a bright gigantic jet (GJ) was recorded by an observer in Italy. Forty-nine additional sprites, elves, halos and two cases of upward lightning were observed that night. The location of the GJ...

Extracting Semantics from the Enron Corpus

Indirect measures must be used when analysing attitudes, as individuals are unlikely to voluntarily express beliefs that are opposed by social norms. The IAT indirectly assesses attitudes through the automatic association of...
Evaluation of industrial urea energy consumption (EC) based on life cycle assessment (LCA)
L Shi, L Liu, B Yang, G Sheng, T Xu
May 08, 2020
With the increasingly prominent environmental problems and the decline of fossil fuel reserves, the reduction of energy consumption (EC) has become a common goal in the world. Urea industry is a typical energy-intensive...

The ‘obnoxious mobilised minority’
GJ Severs
May 02, 2017
This article examines the British National Party (BNP)’s opposition to gay men during the 1980s and 1990s. Drawing on the sociological concept of ‘homohysteria’, it examines written material from BNP publications during those...
Detectable Abundance of Cyanoacetylene (HC 3 N) Predicted on Reduced Nitrogen-rich Super-Earth Atmospheres
Abstract: We predict that cyanoacetylene (HC3N) is produced photochemically in the atmosphere of GJ 1132 b in abundances detectable by the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), assuming that the atmosphere is hydrogen dominated and...
Villous Tree Model with Active Contractions for Estimating Blood Flow Conditions in the Human Placenta
Y Kato, ML Oyen, GJ Burton
May 22, 2017
$\textit{Background:}$ In the human placenta, maternal and fetal bloods exchange substances through the surface of the villous trees: the fetal blood circulates in the villous trees, around which the maternal blood circulates....
Robust Object Detection in Colour Images Using a Multivariate Percentage Occupancy Hit-or-Miss Transform
The extension of Mathematical Morphology to colour and multivariate images is challenging due to the need to define a total ordering in the colour space. No one general way of ordering multivariate data exists and, therefore...
Increased Affinity of Small Gold Particles for Glycerol Oxidation over Au/TiO<inf>2</inf> Probed by NMR Relaxation Methods
The aerobic oxidation of glycerol in aqueous solution over Au/TiO₂ catalysts has been studied, and the effect of Au loading by wet impregnation, in the range 0.5-5% Au, has been assessed. Low metal loading favors the deposition...
