A bivariate extension of the Hosking and Wallis goodness-of-fit measure for regional distributions
This study presents a bivariate extension of the goodness-of-fit measure for regional frequency distributions developed by Hosking and Wallis [1993] for use with the method of L-moments. Utilising the approximate joint normal...

Serous borderline ovarian tumours
Serous borderline ovarian tumours (SBOTs) are an intermediate group of neoplasms, which have features between benign and malignant ovarian tumours and for which, fertility-sparing surgery can be offered. MRI in imaging of SBOTs...

How do we manage overdiagnosis/overtreatment in breast screening?
MG Wallis
Feb 13, 2018
Overdiagnosis is the inevitable flip side of early detection resulting in unnecessary labelling of well women with a diagnosis of cancer and possible unnecessary treatment. Overdiagnosis occurs because breast cancers have...

Carb-conscious; The role of carbohydrate intake in recovery from exercise

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: The present review summarized evidence on the role of carbohydrates in recovery from exercise within the context of acute and chronic effects on metabolism and performance. RECENT FINDINGS: Recent studies...

Ruthenium catalyzed remote C4-selective C–H functionalisation of carbazoles via σ-activation
We report the C4-selective C–H alkylation of carbazole derivatives furnished with a pyrimidine directing group at N9. This was realized using ruthenium catalyzed r-activation methodology, whereby C–H activation at C1 enables the...

The Genetic Basis of Obesity and Related Metabolic Diseases in Humans and Companion Animals
Obesity is one of the most prevalent health conditions in humans and companion animals globally. It is associated with premature mortality, metabolic dysfunction, and multiple health conditions across species. Obesity is...

Dislocation interactions in olivine control postseismic creep of the upper mantle
Abstract: Changes in stress applied to mantle rocks, such as those imposed by earthquakes, commonly induce a period of transient creep, which is often modelled based on stress transfer among slip systems due to grain...

Symposium 3:The mechanisms of nutrient interactions

The objective of this review paper is to evaluate the impact of undertaking aerobic exercise in the overnight-fasted v. fed-state, in the context of optimising the health benefits of regular physical activity. Conducting a...

Leaf margin organisation and the existence of vaterite-producing hydathodes in the alpine plant Saxifraga scardica
R Wightman, S Wallis, P Aston
May 03, 2018
Some sections of species within the genus Saxifraga deposit a chalky crust on the surface of their leaves, originating from the guttation medium produced by the sunken hydathodes found generally at or near the leaf margin. The...

An apparatus for measuring nonlinear viscoelasticity of minerals at high temperature
We describe a high-temperature, uniaxial creep apparatus designed to investigate nonlinear attenuation of materials over a wide range of temperatures (25–1300 ○C) using forced oscillations combined with a bias stress. This...

An analysis of screen-detected invasive cancers by grade in the English breast cancer screening programme
Abstract: Objective: Randomised controlled trials have shown a reduction in breast cancer mortality from mammography screening and it is the detection of high-grade invasive cancers that is responsible for much of this effect....
