Normal limits for oscillometric bronchodilator responses and relationships with clinical factors
ERJ Open Research, 2021 Introduction We aimed to determine normal thresholds for positive bronchodilator responses for oscillometry in an Australian general population sample aged ≥40 years, to guide clinical interpretation. We also examined relationships between bronchodilator

Bound electron nonlinearity beyond the ionization threshold
, 2018 Although high field laser-induced ionization is a fundamental process underlying many applications, there have been no absolute measurements of the nonlinear polarizability of atoms and molecules in the presence of ionization. Such information is crucial,

Absolute thresholds in vibrotactile signal detection [PDF]
Perception & Psychophysics, 1971 Vibrotactile signals were presented to S’s index fingertip during a specified observation interval at a signal probability of either .30 or .70. The S’s task was to report the presence or absence of the signal as quickly as possible and to estimate the magnitude of the sensory event experienced during the observation interval.

Analyzing soccer match sprint distances: A comparison of GPS-based absolute and relative thresholds
Biology of SportThis study compared the most common absolute sprint threshold (> 25.2 km/h) with relative and individualized thresholds (> 70%, > 75%, > 80%, > 85% and > 90% of peak match speed).

The effects of industrial noise of higher spectrum on the workers’ auditory perception abilities [PDF]
Vojnosanitetski Pregled, 2016 Background/Aim. Results of previous studies gave support to the idea that machines in power plants produce noise of different levels of loudness and frequency, and that it could cause deterioration of the hearing ability of workers.

Crosstalk between the ribosome quality control‐associated E3 ubiquitin ligases LTN1 and RNF10
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Loss of the E3 ligase LTN1, the ubiquitin‐like modifier UFM1, or the deubiquitinating enzyme UFSP2 disrupts endoplasmic reticulum–ribosome quality control (ER‐RQC), a pathway that removes stalled ribosomes and faulty proteins. This disruption may trigger a compensatory response to ER‐RQC defects, including increased expression of the E3 ligase RNF10 ...

Erasure coding for distributed matrix multiplication for matrices with bounded entries [PDF]
, 2018 Distributed matrix multiplication is widely used in several scientific domains. It is well recognized that computation times on distributed clusters are often dominated by the slowest workers (called stragglers).

Solitons and kinks in a general car-following model
, 2012 We study a car-following model of traffic flow which assumes only that a car's acceleration depends on its own speed, the headway ahead of it, and the rate of change of headway, with only minimal assumptions about the functional form of that dependence ...
