Prevention Is Better Than Cure
One of the common uses of artificial intelligence in higher education is learning dashboards, which aim at collecting and analyzing student information and providing feedback to students. Despite limited studies on dashboards in...
The 1929 Tsunami - A Look Inside
Megan Jarvis
Apr 09, 2013
Lawn is a small fishing community located on the tip of the Burin Peninsula along the south coast of Newfoundland. In 1929, a Tsunami brought considerable damage to property and loss of life to the Burin Peninsula. As a...
Rare Genetic Variation in 135 Families With Family History Suggestive of X-Linked Intellectual Disability.
Families with multiple male children with intellectual disability (ID) are usually suspected of having disease due to a X-linked mode of inheritance and genetic studies focus on analysis of segregating variants in X-linked...

Simulations of GRETINA: Photopeak Efficiencies
Leah Jarvis
Jan 01, 0001
We tested and improved upon computer simulations of the GRETINA gamma ray tracking array that is used to study the structure and properties of atomic nuclei at several national laboratories. As part of this work, it was...

Early embryo mortality in natural human reproduction
GE Jarvis
Jan 20, 2017
It is generally accepted that natural human embryo mortality during pregnancy is high – losses of 70% and higher from fertilisation to birth are frequently claimed. The first external sign of pregnancy occurs two weeks after...

Estimating limits for natural human embryo mortality
GE Jarvis
Dec 15, 2016
Natural human embryonic mortality is generally considered to be high. Values of 70% and higher are widely cited. However, it is difficult to determine accurately owing to an absence of direct data quantifying embryo loss between...

Evidence for an effect of receptor density on ligand occupancy and agonist EC50.
Drug-receptor interaction theory predicts that proportional receptor occupancy is a function of ligand concentration as defined by a ligand-receptor affinity constant, and is independent of receptor density. However, we...

How cellulose stretches
Cellulose is the most familiar and most abundant strong biopolymer, but the reasons for its outstanding mechanical performance are not well understood. Each glucose unit in a cellulose chain is joined to the next by a covalent...

Coarsening Dynamics of 2D Subaqueous Dunes

Fluid flow over an initially flat granular bed leads to the formation of a surface-wave instability. The sediment bed profile coarsens and increases in amplitude and wavelength as disturbances develop from ripples into dunes....

Inhaled corticosteroids and FEV 1 decline in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
Abstract: Rate of FEV1 decline in COPD is heterogeneous and the extent to which inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) influence the rate of decline is unclear. The majority of previous reviews have investigated specific ICS and non-ICS...

Consent for the diagnosis of preclinical dementia states

It is now possible to detect the pathology of Alzheimer's disease (AD) many years before symptoms and signs otherwise become manifest. Biomarkers of disease include evidence of amyloid and tau in the cerebrospinal fluid and...

Dielectric Response of Quantum Critical Ferroelectric as a Function of Pressure.
In this work we report for the first time measurements of the dielectric loss of single-crystal SrTiO3 under the application of hydrostatic pressure up to 20 kbar and temperatures down to 200 mK which allow us to comment on the...
