Warfarin time in therapeutic range of primary healthcare patients in the Western Cape Province, South Africa

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Introduction Warfarin therapy is the mainstay of anticoagulation treatment in South Africa and requires frequent INR monitoring due to interindividual patient variability. Time in therapeutic range (TTR) reflects the proportion of total treatment time during which INR values are within therapeutic range.

Measuring what matters: Evaluating the impact of curriculum decolonisation initiatives in UK business schools

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Curriculum decolonisation has become a prominent feature of equity agendas in UK higher education, yet there remains limited empirical and theoretical work on how such initiatives are evaluated, particularly within business schools. This paper presents one of the first multi‐institutional empirical studies examining how UK business schools ...

Predictors of authorised, unauthorised and persistent absence among secondary school pupils in Scotland

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This article examines the factors associated with persistent absenteeism (an absence rate of 10% or higher) and authorised and unauthorised absence among secondary school pupils in Scotland. Using linked administrative data, the analysis focuses on secondary school stages S1–S6 in three academic years.

Addressing racialised awarding gap in higher education: Insights from personal tutors

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Situated within a wider cross‐institutional research project, this article provides an in‐depth case study of one higher education (HE) institution, focusing on how personal tutors make sense of racialised degree awarding disparities for both undergraduate and postgraduate students, how they perceive their responsibilities, the challenges and ...

English teachers' journeys since the 2020 Iteration of Black Lives Matter

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract The 2020 resurgence of Black Lives Matter (BLM) mobilised students in England to demand greater representation of racially minoritised voices in English curriculums—a call highlighted by stark inequity: just 1.5% of GCSE texts studied are by racially minoritised authors, despite racially minoritised students comprising 38.0% of the student ...

Breaking point: Identifying the factors that predict suspension from school

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract School suspensions are associated with adverse educational and psychosocial outcomes, yet little is known about how structural disadvantage, relational factors, health behaviours, well‐being indicators and school‐level factors jointly predict suspension risk in England.

On-Line Fountain Codes With Unequal Error Protection

IEEE Communications Letters, 2017
A new encoding scheme for on-line fountain codes is proposed to provide unequal error protection (UEP) for source symbols. Both the weighted-selection strategy and the expanding-window strategy are used to achieve the UEP property. We analyze the bound of overhead to demonstrate the performance. We also make comparisons with on-line fountain codes that

Polar codes with the unequal error protection property

Computer Communications, 2018
Abstract The Internet of Things (IoT) is expected to support a wide variety of devices with different transmission reliability requirements. Channel codes with the unequal error protection (UEP) property are rather appealing for such applications. As the first provably capacity-achieving codes, polar codes have excellent error-correcting performances

Rateless Codes With Unequal Error Protection Property

IEEE Transactions on Information Theory, 2007
In this correspondence, a generalization of rateless codes is proposed. The proposed codes provide unequal error protection (UEP). The asymptotic properties of these codes under the iterative decoding are investigated. Moreover, upper and lower bounds on maximum-likelihood (ML) decoding error probabilities of finite-length LT and Raptor codes for both ...

On Streaming Codes With Unequal Error Protection

IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Information Theory, 2021
Error control codes for real-time interactive applications such as audio and video streaming must operate under strict delay constraints and be resilient to burst losses. Previous works have characterized optimal streaming codes that guarantee perfect and timely recovery of all source packets when the burst loss is below a certain maximum threshold. In
