The Cape Viper [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1901
TO-DAY the Cape viper (Causus rhombeatus) laid several eggs. The keeper says this has happened before. As Causus is one of the Viperidae, and as the Viperidae (except Atractaspis) are, as their name implies, viviparous, or, to be accurate, ovo-viviparous, it would be interesting to know whether this is a freak, or whether the Causidae are oviparous in ...

Text Processing Like Humans Do: Visually Attacking and Shielding NLP Systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Visual modifications to text are often used to obfuscate offensive comments in social media (e.g., "!d10t") or as a writing style ("1337" in "leet speak"), among other scenarios.

Surgical plating versus closed reduction for fractures in the distal radius in older patients: a cost‐effectiveness analysis from the hospital perspective

open access: yesANZ Journal of Surgery, Volume 92, Issue 12, Page 3311-3318, December 2022., 2022
Question What is the relative cost‐effectiveness of volar‐locking plate (VLP) fixation compared with closed reduction and cast immobilization (CR) in the treatment of displaced distal radius fractures in patients aged 60 years and older from the perspective of hospital funders?

Quantitative Proteomic Analysis of Venoms from Russian Vipers of Pelias Group: Phospholipases A2 are the Main Venom Components

open access: yesToxins, 2016
Venoms of most Russian viper species are poorly characterized. Here, by quantitative chromato-mass-spectrometry, we analyzed protein and peptide compositions of venoms from four Vipera species (V. kaznakovi, V. renardi, V. orlovi and V.

Primum non nocere; It’s time to consider altitude training as the medical intervention it actually is!

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2022
Sleep is one of the most important aspects of recovery, and is known to be severely affected by hypoxia. The present position paper focuses on sleep as a strong moderator of the altitude training-response.

Measuring the growth of structure by matching dark matter haloes to galaxies with VIPERS and SDSS [PDF]

open access: yesMNRAS Volume 489, Issue 1, October 2019, Pages 653-662, 2019
We test the history of structure formation from redshift 1 to today by matching galaxies from VIPERS and SDSS with dark matter haloes in the MultiDark SMDPL N-body simulation. We first show that the standard subhalo abundance matching (SHAM) recipe implemented with MultiDark characterizes the clustering of galaxies well both at redshift 0 for SDSS and ...
