Stress in dipteran insects mass‐reared for sterile insect technique applications
Insect Science, EarlyView.The connections between biotic and abiotic stress affecting mass‐reared dipteran insects and the associated stress and immunological responses. Numbers indicate the order in which the topics are discussed in this review. Abstract Stress may be viewed as the disturbance of homeostasis of an organism.

Xenon in Mercury-Manganese Stars [PDF]
, 2008 Previous studies of elemental abundances in Mercury-Manganese (HgMn) stars have occasionally reported the presence of lines of the ionized rare noble gas Xe II, especially in a few of the hottest stars with Teff ~ 13000--15000 K. A new study of this element has been undertaken using observations from Lick Observatory's Hamilton Echelle Spectrograph. In

Accounting Perspectives, Volume 24, Issue 1, Page 189-249, March 2025.ABSTRACT CPA enabling competencies underpin the human skills and professional values that all future accountants should possess. Nevertheless, to date, the discourse is limited within the scholarship of teaching and learning on how to best inculcate these competencies in future accountants.

Percolation modeling of hydraulic hysteresis in a porous media [PDF]
Computer Research and Modeling , 2014, vol. 6, no. 4, pp. 543-558
(Russian), 2013 In this paper we consider various models of hydraulic hysteresis in invasive mercury porosimetry. For simulating the hydraulic hysteresis is used isotropic site percolation on three-dimensional square lattices with $(1, d)$-neighborhood.

Academic Emergency Medicine, EarlyView.Abstract Background Asthma is the most common chronic illness of childhood and a leading cause of hospitalization and health care costs for children. Intravenous magnesium sulfate (IVMg) may help severely ill children avoid hospitalization when added to standard treatment in an emergency department (ED), but this has not been adequately evaluated in a ...

Source-to-source optimizing transformations of Prolog programs based on abstract interpretation [PDF]
arXiv, 2007 Making a Prolog program more efficient by transforming its source code, without changing its operational semantics, is not an obvious task. It requires the user to have a clear understanding of how the Prolog compiler works, and in particular, of the effects of impure features like the cut. The way a Prolog code is written - e.g., the order of clauses,

Validation of the Sudbury Vertigo Risk Score to risk stratify for a serious cause of vertigo
Academic Emergency Medicine, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction In 2022, nearly 0.5 million Canadians visited an emergency department (ED) for dizziness, accounting for over 3.5% of all ED visits. Of these patients, only 2%–5% received a serious diagnosis. The cost of ED and inpatient care for dizziness in Canada exceeds $200 million per year, of which neuroimaging accounts for a large ...

Estimating the overlap between dependent computations for automatic parallelization [PDF]
Theory and Practice of Logic Programming, 27th Int'l. Conference
on Logic Programming (ICLP'11) Special Issue, volume 11, issue 4-5, pages
575-587. July 2011, 2011 Researchers working on the automatic parallelization of programs have long known that too much parallelism can be even worse for performance than too little, because spawning a task to be run on another CPU incurs overheads. Autoparallelizing compilers have therefore long tried to use granularity analysis to ensure that they only spawn off computations

Persistence of Ancestral KhoeSan Mitochondrial Patterns in Contemporary South African Populations
Annals of Human Genetics, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Southern Africa has been inhabited by hunter‐gatherers for at least 20,000 years and has received diverse immigration flows in the last 2000 years. The original inhabitants have interacted with the pastoralist migrants from Eastern Africa (∼2000 ybp), followed by the southern Bantu migration arriving some 1000 ybp, and more ...

Test for consistence of a flyby anomaly simulation with the observed Doppler residuals for the Messenger flybys of Mercury [PDF]
arXiv, 2010 In 2007, the observed Earth flyby anomalies have been successfully simulated using an empirical formula (H. J. Busack, 2007). This simulation has led to the prediction of anomaly values, to be expected for the Rosetta flybys of Mars in 2007, and following twice of Earth in 2007 and 2009.
