Consistency Conditions for Fivebrane in M Theory on R^5/Z_2 Orbifold

, 1998
We derive some consistency conditions for fivebrane in M theory on R^5/Z_2 orbifold from the quantization law for the antisymmetric tensor field. We construct consistent fivebrane configurations in R^5/Z_2 type orbifold that exhibit the correct low ...

Estimating causes of maternal death in data‐sparse contexts

Statistics in Medicine, Volume 43, Issue 24, Page 4702-4735, 30 October 2024.
Understanding the underlying causes of maternal death across all regions of the world is essential to inform policies and resource allocation to reduce the mortality burden. However, in many countries there exists very little data on the causes of maternal death, and data that do exist do not capture the entire population at risk.

The gravity duals of SO/USp superconformal quivers

, 2012
We study the gravity duals of SO/USp superconformal quiver gauge theories realized by M5-branes wrapping on a Riemann surface ("G-curve") together with a Z_2-quotient. When the G-curve has no punctures, the gravity solutions are classified by the genus g

Comparison of selected cytomorphological features of canine pemphigus foliaceus and superficial pyoderma

Veterinary Dermatology, Volume 35, Issue 5, Page 524-535, October 2024.
Background – Cytological detection of acantholytic keratinocytes (acantholytic cells [AC]) helps to identify canine pemphigus foliaceus (cPF) yet AC also occurs in superficial pyoderma (SP), the main differential diagnosis. Hypothesis/Objectives – To compare selected cytomorphological features of cPF and SP and to establish cytological diagnostic ...

Elevating Platinum to Volumetric Capacitance: High Surface Area Electrodes through Reactive Pt Sputtering

Advanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 13, Issue 24, September 25, 2024.
Platinum is used in many medical implants, but lags behind next‐generation electrode materials in performance. How sputtered platinum oxide is a microfabricatable thin film material that provides bioelectronics electrodes with volumetric capacitance and low impedance that tweaks platinum to compete at the level of conducting polymers and IrOx is shown.

The Dynamic Relationship between Crime and Economic Growth in Nigeria

International Journal of Management and Economics, 2017
Crime is a major impediment to economic growth and development in Nigeria despite measures taken to reduce it. There is, however, currently no major statistical analysis of how crime affects economic growth in that country.

Preliminary evaluation of a commercial shampoo and fine bubble bathing in the treatment of canine atopic dermatitis: A single‐blinded, randomised, controlled study

Veterinary Dermatology, Volume 35, Issue 4, Page 400-407, August 2024.
Background – Fine bubble (FB) bathing has shown benefits on a mouse model of atopic dermatitis (AD). However, its efficacy in dogs with AD remains to be evaluated. Objective – This study aimed to assess the clinical effectiveness of FB bathing in dogs with AD.
