Abstract Hypertension guidelines recommend measuring blood pressure (BP) in both arms at least once. However, this is seldom done due to uncertainties regarding measurement procedure and the implications of finding a clinically important inter‐arm BP difference (IAD).

Beyond the cross-section: Rethinking the intention-behaviour gap through a conceptual and methodological lens. [PDF]
Abstract Objectives The intention–behaviour gap (IBG) remains a persistent challenge in health psychology. While intentions are widely recognized as proximal determinants of behaviour, they frequently fail to translate into action. This conceptual review aims to critically evaluate dominant models of the IBG and propose a dynamic, multidimensional ...

Sedimentary Mercury Enrichments as a Tracer of Large Igneous Province Volcanism
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.

Design and implementation of a small AODF
Cross-connection is the only point in the communications field that has not been automated. With the many fibre networks that have been built, there is strong demand from operators for an automatic optical distribution frame (AODF) to reduce operational ...

Photometry and the Metallicity Distribution of the Outer Halo of M31 [PDF]
We have conducted a wide-field CCD-mosaic study of the resolved red-giant branch (RGB) stars of M31, in a field located 20 kpc from the nucleus along the SE minor axis. In our (I, V-I) color-magnitude diagram, RGB stars in the top three magnitudes of the
