Modeling the Effects of Star Formation Histories on Halpha and Ultra-Violet Fluxes in Nearby Dwarf Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We consider the effects of non-constant star formation histories (SFHs) on Halpha and GALEX far ultra-violet (FUV) star formation rate (SFR) indicators. Under the assumption of a fully populated Chabrier IMF, we compare the distribution of Halpha-to-FUV ...

“Everything the hujur tells is very educative but if I cannot apply those in my own life then there is no meaning”: a mixed-methods process evaluation of a smoke-free homes intervention in Bangladesh

open access: yesBMC Public Health, 2022
Background Second-hand smoke exposure from tobacco significantly contributes to morbidity and mortality worldwide. A cluster RCT in Bangladesh compared a community-based smoke-free home (SFH) intervention delivered in mosques, with or without indoor air ...

Star formation history in the solar neighborhood: the link between stars and cosmology

open access: yes, 2001
Using a cosmological galactic evolutionary approach to model the Milky Way, we calculate the star formation history (SFH) of the solar neighborhood. The good agreement we obtain with the observational inferences suggests that our physical model describes

Extragalactic Constraints on the Initial Mass Function [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The local stellar mass density is observed to be significantly lower than the value obtained from integrating the cosmic star formation history (SFH), assuming that all the stars formed with a Salpeter initial mass function (IMF).

Measurement of arterial occlusion pressure using straight and curved blood flow restriction cuffs

open access: yesPhysiological Reports
Arterial occlusion pressure (AOP) is influenced by the characteristics of the cuff used to measure AOP. Doppler ultrasound was used to measure AOP of the brachial and superficial femoral arteries using straight and curved blood flow restriction cuffs in ...

Effects of Sunflower Hulls on Productive Performance, Digestibility Indices and Rumen Morphology of Growing Awassi Lambs Fed with Total Mixed Rations

open access: yesVeterinary Sciences, 2021
Forty-eight growing Awassi lambs were used in a 70-day trial to investigate the effects of different levels of dietary sunflower hulls (SFH) on growth, rumen morphology, fiber digestibility and meat characteristics of lambs.

On the Estimation of Systematic Uncertainties of Star Formation Histories

open access: yes, 2012
In most star formation history (SFH) measurements, the reported uncertainties are those due to effects whose sizes can be readily measured: Poisson noise, adopted distance and extinction, and binning choices in the solution itself.

Applying the model for improvement to enhance recruitment and retention in a discharge intervention randomized controlled trial

open access: yesJournal of Hospital Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background High recruitment, intervention fidelity, and retention rates in clinical trials are necessary to ensure generalizable conclusions; quality improvement (QI) methods can be used to track and improve these rates. The Garnering Effective Telehealth to Help Optimize Multidisciplinary Team Engagement (GET2HOME) study is a randomized ...

Retinal periphlebitis associated with branch retinal vein occlusion and complicated by subfoveal hemorrhage: a case report

open access: yesJournal of International Medical Research, 2022
Retinal periphlebitis is a subtype of retinal vasculitis affecting the retinal veins. We report a case of bilateral branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO) associated with idiopathic retinal periphlebitis and complicated by subfoveal hemorrhage (SFH). An 18-

Social protection for climate-disasters: A case study of the program Keluarga Harapan cash transfer program for smallholder farm household in Indonesia

open access: yesProgress in Disaster Science, 2023
Households living in poverty have a double burden when the adverse impact of natural disasters disrupts their livelihoods. Additionally, households relying on climate-sensitive sectors, such as agriculture and natural resources, have fewer resources to ...
