Prevalence, awareness, treatment, and control of hypertension in Bissau, Western Africa. [PDF]

J Clin Hypertens (Greenwich), 2022
Abstract Hypertension is the leading preventable risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. In Guinea–Bissau there are no previous population‐based hypertension surveys. Therefore, the authors aimed to estimate the prevalence, awareness, treatment, and control of high blood pressure among adults living in Bissau. A sample (n = 973) of dwellers in Bissau,

Seeds of Change: exploring the transformative effects of seed priming in sustainable agriculture. [PDF]

Physiol Plant
Abstract The threats posed by climate change on agriculture at a global scale have fostered researchers to explore new and efficient strategies to ensure stable and safe food production. These new strategies must not only be efficient in reducing yield loss but also comply with environmental and consumer safety regulations, which particularly refer to ...

The application of a system‐based risk management framework and social network analysis to the Maritime Autonomous Surface Ship system: Who are the decision‐makers in the wider system?

Human Factors and Ergonomics in Manufacturing &Service Industries, Volume 33, Issue 5, Page 395-429, September 2023., 2023
Abstract Maritime Autonomous Surface Ships (MASS) currently have no formal regulations developed specifically for their operation, as their regulatory framework is still under development. Rasmussen's Risk Management Framework has been used to develop an actor map of the current MASS system in the UK, to show who the actors, decision‐makers, and ...

A Fracture Risk Assessment Tool for High Resolution Peripheral Quantitative Computed Tomography

Journal of Bone and Mineral Research, Volume 38, Issue 9, Page 1234-1244, September 2023., 2023
ABSTRACT Most fracture risk assessment tools use clinical risk factors combined with bone mineral density (BMD) to improve assessment of osteoporosis; however, stratifying fracture risk remains challenging. This study developed a fracture risk assessment tool that uses information about volumetric bone density and three‐dimensional structure, obtained ...

Finite element simulation of growth modulation during brace treatment of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis

Journal of Orthopaedic Research, Volume 41, Issue 9, Page 2065-2074, September 2023., 2023
Abstract Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is a spine deformity whose progression during growth is affected by asymmetrical loads acting on the spine. The conservative brace treatment aims to limit the deformity's progression until the end of skeletal growth.

VDES R‐Mode performance analysis and experimental results

International Journal of Satellite Communications and Networking, Volume 41, Issue 2, Page 158-177, March/April 2023., 2023
As maritime shipping relies almost exclusively on GNSS, there has been a demand for a backup system in case of a GNSS failure. We introduce and theoretically analyze the positioning performance of VDES R‐Mode as a candidate for an alternative maritime navigation system.

VDES R‐Mode: Vulnerability analysis and mitigation concepts

International Journal of Satellite Communications and Networking, Volume 41, Issue 2, Page 178-194, March/April 2023., 2023
VDES R‐Mode is meant to provide a contingency maritime positioning and navigation system when the operation of Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) is disrupted. This paper evaluates the vulnerabilities of VDES R‐Mode, and discusses the effectiveness and cost of different types of countermeasures. The main outcome of this cost‐benefit analysis is

Functional activity of peptide ion channels in tethered bilayer lipid membranes: Review

Electrochemical Science Advances, Volume 2, Issue 6, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Ion transport across biomembranes plays a major role in living cells. This fundamental function is normally carried out by molecules with both a hydrophobic and a hydrophilic side (amphiphilic molecules), which aggregate within the membrane forming a hydrophilic pore (the ion channel) permitting the selective translocation of permeant ions ...
