Improving year-round protection against influenza infection in the tropics by Young, Barnaby

“…This thesis presents a review of influenza epidemiology in Asia and the association between the pattern of seasonality and latitude and climate; a systematic review and meta-analysis of test-negative design (TND) case-control studies in order to generate summary estimates of changes in vaccine effectiveness with time since vaccination; results of a cohort study that investigates whether there is evidence for waning vaccine protection against severe influenza in Singapore; an observer-blind randomised clinical trial of annual versus biannual influenza vaccination in older adults, and further analysis of predictors of waning antibody titres post-vaccination.…”

Equalization by sub-band mint method for speech dereverberation by Xu, Guangyu.

“…In most real scenarios, the length of RTFs are significantly and RTFs are unknown. The existing blind systerm identification techniques estimate RTFs inevitably up to a limited accuracy with some estimation errors, prior to inversion stage. …”

Defining proteoform-specific interactions for drug targeting in a native cell signalling environment by Lutomski, CA, Bennett, JL, El-Baba, TJ, Wu, D, Hinkle, JD, Burnap, SA, Liko, I, Mullen, C, Syka, JEP, Struwe, WB, Robinson, CV

“…Typically, cell-based assays are used, however, they are often blind to the effects of protein modifications. In this study, using the archetypal G protein-coupled receptor rhodopsin, we found that the receptor and its effectors can be released directly from retina rod disc membranes using infrared irradiation in a mass spectrometer. …”

Glass box and black box machine learning approaches to exploit compositional descriptors of molecules in drug discovery and aid the medicinal chemist by Robson, B, Cooper, R

“…These points are demonstrated by blind test comparison of two main types of BB methods and a probabilistic “Glass Box” (GB) method new outside of medicine, but which appears well suited to the above. …”

Policies in parallel? A comparative study of journalistic AI policies in 52 global news organisations by Simon, FM, Becker, KB, Crum, C

“…We conclude by pointing out blind spots around technological dependency, sustainable AI, and inequalities in current AI guidelines and providing directions for further research.…”

Multi-degradation image super-resolution using texture-transfer by Susanto, Stephanie Audrey

“…This research presents a non-blind reference-based SR (RefSR) using multi-degradation method that aims to be more well-rounded compared to leading SR methods thus far. …”

Inkjet printing of zno-sno2 hybrid nanostructure for high performance UV photodetectors by Ng, Ping Kee

“…Huge amount of application has been done in optoelectric devices such as visible-blind photodetectors and solar cells. This report will demonstrate and experiment with the manufacturing processes of a simple photodetector device using an inkjet printer. …”

In HF, T2D, CKD, or atherosclerotic CVD, SGLT2 inhibitors reduce HF hospitalizations and CV mortality by Zhu, D, Herrington, WG

“…</p> <p><strong>Review methods:</strong> Multiple databases searched to Feb 2024 for double-blind, randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that compared SGLT2 inhibitors with placebo in patients with HF, type 2 diabetes, CKD, or atherosclerotic CV disease, including acute myocardial infarction; randomized &gt;1000 patients; and reported prespecified primary outcomes.…”

Protection of cyclists by Xiao, Shunyu

“…By shifting of pedestrian crossings out of signalised junction, pedestrians and cyclists will have the right of way and blind spots can be effectively minimised. Health screening programming can be proposed to certify the health status of elderly cyclists and restraining those with medical conditions from cycling on the roads. …”

Central and peripheral contributions to the effect of glucose ingestion on maximal force production by Pang, Benedict Wei Jun

“…Methods: In a randomised double-blind crossover design, eight healthy and physically active males ingested 100 mL of either 10% (w/v) glucose, 0.05% (w/v) aspartame, 9% (w/v) maltodextrin, or water. …”

Sensorimotor hand representation following altered input by Wesselink, DB

“…Together, this suggests hand representation is preserved in all amputees, but does require some prior hand experience. Then, congenitally blind individuals are shown to have typical hand representation in the primary somatosensory cortex. …”
