Cultural conceptualisations and the cultural model of fertility and infertility in Nigerian English
Abstract The article scrutinises the concepts of fertility and infertility as reflected in Nigerian English. For this, a mixed‐methods approach is suggested that uses the Corpus of Global Web‐based English as a resource to shed light on lexical frequency and collocations, as well as a newspaper corpus of online articles from The Guardian and Vanguard ...

Abstract Doppler ultrasound may be used to assess leg blood flow (Q̇leg${{\dot{Q}}_{{\mathrm{leg}}}}$), but the reliability of this method remains unexplored in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), where between‐subject variability may be larger than healthy due to peripheral vascular changes.

Abstract A mixed‐method heat acclimation (HA) protocol may optimise performance by supporting the training taper while promoting thermal adaptation; however, the impact on cardiovascular and fluid‐regulatory adjustments to protect health is unknown. Therefore, we examined the effects of a mixed‐method heat protocol on physiological responses, including

Acoustic pulse reflectometry for the measurement of musical wind instruments
The bore profile and input impedance of a musical wind instrument provide valuable information about its acoustical properties. The time domain technique of acoustic pulse reflectometry can be used to measure the input impulse response of a tubular object, such as a wind instrument, from which both its bore profile and input impedance\ud can be ...

The cardiac pacemakers: A paradigm of robustness in evolutionary biology
Abstract figure legend Functional networks in living systems are formed by many thousands of gene products. In association with those networks, several genes (four in this diagram) may be sufficient, each on its own, to ensure that the function occurs. Any one of these may be removed or blocked while leaving the others to continue functioning.
