The risk of sleep-related death in an inclined sleep environment
Background Unsafe sleep environments are the primary modifiable risk factor for sudden unexpected infant death (SUID). Despite this knowledge, products that deviate from the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) safe sleep recommendations continue to be ...

Positronium for Antihydrogen Production in the AEGIS Experiment
The primary goal of the Antihydrogen Experiment: Gravity, Interferometry, Spectroscopy (AEGIS) collaboration is to measure for the first time precisely the gravitational acceleration of antihydrogen, H¯ , a fundamental issue of contemporary physics, using a beam of antiatoms.

Probing antimatter gravity – The AEGIS experiment at CERN [PDF]
The weak equivalence principle states that the motion of a body in a gravitational field is independent of its structure or composition. This postulate of general relativity has been tested to very high precision with ordinary matter, but no relevant experimental verification with antimatter has ever been carried out.

Abstract Background Galectin‐3 (Gal‐3) is a circulating biomarker of fibrosis, with higher levels being associated with an increased risk of progression of heart failure and kidney disease. Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are at increased risk of both.

Abstract Background Parkinson's disease (PD) phenotype may vary with genetic, ethno‐geographic, cultural, and environmental factors. Objectives The aim was to develop a clinical database of PD in India and assess the influence of age‐at‐onset (AAO), gender, and motor subtype on the clinical profile of PD.

We investigate the field localization properties in a 2-D photonic crystal cavity with defect resonances. Although based on a simple geometry, these resonances achieve extremely high quality (Q)-factors ∼108. We provide an example of a chalcogenide glass

Could botanic gardens use the Plant Treaty to regulate plant exchanges?
Current international laws surrounding accessing and sharing biological materials in botanic gardens is limiting their capacity to conserve, research, educate and raise public awareness about biodiversity. We set out an argument for using the access and benefit sharing arrangements of the International Treaty for Plant Genetic Resources for Food and ...

Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.
