The influence of lifestyle changes (diet, exercise and stress reduction) on prostate cancer tumour biology and patient outcomes: A systematic review

BJUI Compass, Volume 4, Issue 4, Page 385-416, July 2023., 2023
Abstract Background The mostly indolent natural history of prostate cancer (PCa) provides an opportunity for men to explore the benefits of lifestyle interventions. Current evidence suggests appropriate changes in lifestyle including diet, physical activity (PA) and stress reduction with or without dietary supplements may improve both disease outcomes ...

Chemical Interactions between Thorium(IV) and O2- in the FLiBe and FLiNaK Molten Salt Systems

International Journal of Energy Research, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
The chemical interactions between thorium(IV) and O2- in the LiF‐BeF2 (2 : 1 mol%) (FLiBe) and LiF‐NaF‐KF (46.5 : 11.5 : 42 mol%) (FLiNaK) molten salt systems were studied at 873 K. The precipitation‐dissolution behavior of Th(IV) oxide/oxyfluoride species, as well as the speciation law of these species and their relationship with oxide concentration ...

Biomechanical Analysis of Volleyball Players' Spike Swing Based on Deep Learning.

Comput Intell Neurosci, 2022
Deep learning is to learn the inherent laws and representation levels of sample data. The information obtained during these learning processes is of great help in the interpretation of data such as text, images, and sounds. Through the deep learning method, the image features are learned independently, and feature extraction is realized, which greatly ...

Comparative Study on the Neutronic Performance of Thermal and Fast Molten Salt Reactors under Once‐Through Fuel Cycle

International Journal of Energy Research, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
Once‐through molten salt reactors have the advantages of easy availability of fuel, nuclear nonproliferation, and low technical difficulty. It is expected to be the earliest commercial molten salt reactor fuel cycle mode. The current research on the neutronic performance of the once‐through fuel cycle mainly focuses on the thermal spectrum range, and ...

Blending mindfulness practices and character strengths increases employee well‐being: A second‐order meta‐analysis and a follow‐up field experiment

Human Resource Management Journal, Volume 31, Issue 4, Page 1025-1062, November 2021., 2021
Abstract This study summarises the existing literature on Mindfulness‐Based Interventions (MBIs) and their effect on employee well‐being criteria and extends it by testing MBIs against a Mindfulness‐Strengths‐Based Intervention (MSBI). Given that extant MBIs focus on restoring well‐being, our first hypothesis was that MBIs would perform better on ...

Inner engineering: Evaluating the utility of mindfulness training to cultivate intrapersonal and interpersonal competencies among first‐year engineering students

Journal of Engineering Education, Volume 110, Issue 3, Page 636-670, July 2021., 2021
Abstract Background There is clear consensus among influential education reports that an expansive range of intrapersonal (e.g., self‐regulation) and interpersonal competencies (e.g., empathy) highly influence educational and career success. Research on teaching and learning these competencies is limited in engineering education.
