The co-development of a linguistic and culturally tailored tele-retinopathy screening intervention for immigrants living with diabetes from China and African-Caribbean countries in Ottawa, Canada

BMC Health Services Research, 2023
Background Diabetic retinopathy is a sight-threatening ocular complication of diabetes. Screening is an effective way to reduce severe complications, but screening attendance rates are often low, particularly for newcomers and immigrants to Canada and ...

Measurement of sexual health outcomes among people who inject drugs: pilot study in Catalonia, Spain and Barnaul, Russia

BMC Public Health, 2018
Background The main objective of this study was to test some of the draft sexual health indicators developed by the World Health Organization as part of a comprehensive indicator framework to monitor progress in universal access to reproductive health ...

Constraining the mass of the Local Group [PDF]

, 2016
The mass of the Local Group (LG) is a crucial parameter for galaxy formation theories. However, its observational determination is challenging - its mass budget is dominated by dark matter which cannot be directly observed. To meet this end the posterior

Defining a mood stabiliser: novel framework for research and clinical practice

BJPsych Open, 2018
The term ‘mood stabiliser’ is ill-defined and lacks clinical utility. We propose a framework to evaluate medications and effectively communicate their mood stabilising properties – their acute and prophylactic efficacy across the domains of mania and ...

Assessing the feasibility, acceptability, and fidelity of a tele-retinopathy-based intervention to encourage greater attendance to diabetic retinopathy screening in immigrants living with diabetes from China and African-Caribbean countries in Ottawa, Canada: a protocol

Pilot and Feasibility Studies, 2023
Background Diabetic retinopathy is a leading cause of preventable blindness in Canada. Clinical guidelines recommend annual diabetic retinopathy screening for people living with diabetes to reduce the risk and progression of vision loss.

Tidal stripping and the structure of dwarf galaxies in the Local Group [PDF]

, 2017
The shallow faint-end slope of the galaxy mass function is usually reproduced in Λ cold dark matter (ΛCDM) galaxy formation models by assuming that the fraction of baryons that turn into stars drops steeply with decreasing halo mass and essentially ...

The Nature of the Local Group [PDF]

International Astronomical Union Colloquium, 2004
AbstractThe Local Group provides an interesting and representative sample of galaxies in the rest of the Universe. The high accuracy with which many problems can be addressed in Local Group galaxies is of paramount importance for understanding galaxy formation and evolution.

ON THE LOCAL HYPERCENTER OF A GROUP [PDF]

Proyecciones (Antofagasta), 2007
We introduce a local hypercenter of an arbitrary group and study its basic properties. With this concept, it turns out that classical theorems of Baer, Mal’cev and McLain on locally nilpotent groups can be obtained as special cases of statements which are valid in any group.

Testing MOND with Local Group spiral galaxies [PDF]

, 2006
The rotation curves and the relative mass distributions of the two nearby Local Group spiral galaxies, M31 and M33, show discrepancies with Modified Newtonian dynamic (MOND) predictions.

The APOSTLE project: Local Group kinematic mass constraints and simulation candidate selection [PDF]

, 2015
We use a large sample of isolated dark matter halo pairs drawn from cosmological N-body simulations to identify candidate systems whose kinematics match that of the Local Group (LG) of galaxies.
