Understanding the dynamics of sustainable change: A 20-year case study of integrated health and social care

open access: yesBMC Health Services Research, 2018
Background Change initiatives face many challenges, and only a few lead to long-term sustainability. One area in which the challenge of achieving long-term sustainability is particularly noticeable is integrated health and social care.

Influence of Fracture Zone on Final Slope Displace-ment : Insights from Long-Term Monitoring in the Une Mine

open access: yesJournal of MMIJ
The final slope of Une mine experienced sudden increases in displacement in specific sections during the typhoons of 2007 and 2011, as observed through long-term monitoring since the excavation from the top.

Language Preservation Problems in Parametric Timed Automata [PDF]

open access: yesLogical Methods in Computer Science, 2020
Parametric timed automata (PTA) are a powerful formalism to model and reason about concurrent systems with some unknown timing delays. In this paper, we address the (untimed) language- and trace-preservation problems: given a reference parameter ...

Lime-earth mortars: characteristics and applications

open access: yes, 2018
Earth-lime mortars probably result from professional practices from the time when economical conditions enabled the addition of air lime to vernacular earth mortars, which are not durable when in contact with water.

Laser assisted modification of poled silver-doped nanocomposite soda-lime glass

open access: yes, 2013
Thermal poling assisted homogenization of polydisperse Ag nanoparticles embedded in the soda-lime glass is demonstrated. The homogenization leads to the narrowing of the localized surface plasmon resonance.

Effectiveness, costs and cost-effectiveness of chiropractic care and physiotherapy compared with information and advice in the treatment of non-specific chronic low back pain: study protocol for a randomised controlled trial

open access: yesTrials, 2017
Background Low back pain is a global public health problem and a leading cause of disability all over the world. The lifetime prevalence of low back pain is 70–80% and a significant proportion of people affected develop chronic low back pain (CLBP ...

An Engineered Infected Epidermis Model for In Vitro Study of the Skin’s Pro-Inflammatory Response

open access: yesMicromachines, 2020
Wound infection is a major clinical challenge that can significantly delay the healing process, can create pain, and requires prolonged hospital stays. Pre-clinical research to evaluate new drugs normally involves animals. However, ethical concerns, cost,

Cities with dense networks of shared scooter parking have higher parking compliance

open access: yesJournal of Transport and Land Use
Many cities seek solutions to address public concerns about non-compliant shared electric scooter (e-scooter) parking. One strategy is to provide designated parking areas, called “corrals.” However, it remains unclear how much parking infrastructure is ...

Genetic dissection of human ABCE1 in yeast reveals separable requirements for ribosome recycling and suppression of aberrant reinitiation

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Human ABCE1 cannot functionally replace its yeast ortholog. Yeast–human chimera analysis identified NBD1 as a major interspecies barrier. Genetic screening yielded hABCE1 revertants that rescue yeast viability but fail to suppress aberrant translation reinitiation in the 3′ UTR.

Feasibility and Limitations of the Advanced Replica Process for Bioactive Glasses

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Periodic 3D‐printed Kelvin‐cell templates enable a controlled advanced replica process for fabricating highly porous glass lattices. Across P45K9, 45S5, and 13–93, material‐dependent differences in coating, burnout, and shrinkage lead to distinct strut morphologies, while comparable final porosities of 83%–88% are retained.
