A systematic analysis of the contribution of genetics to multimorbidity and comparisons with primary care data by Murrin, O, Mounier, N, Voller, B, Tata, L, Gallego-Moll, C, Roso-Llorach, A, Carrasco-Ribelles, LA, Fox, C, Allan, LM, Woodward, RM, Liang, X, Valderas, JM, Khalid, S, Dudbridge, F, Lamb, SE, Mancini, M, Farmer, L, Boddy, K, Bowden, J, Melzer, D, Frayling, TM, Masoli, JAH, Pilling, LC, Violán, C, Delgado, J

“…</p> <p><strong>Interpretation: </strong>Most pairs of chronic conditions show evidence of shared genetics, and co-occurrence in primary care, suggesting shared mechanisms. The identified patterns of shared genetics, negative correlations and discordance between genetic and observational data provide a foundation for future multimorbidity research.…”

Molecular pathways leading to sleep and wakefulness in Drosophila by Christodoulou, K

“…<p>Sleep is a universal and highly conserved phenomenon across species; yet its operational mechanisms remain one of the greatest biological mysteries. …”

Sustainable management of elasmobranchs in complex coastal fisheries by Gupta, T

“…My research uncovered diverse motivations and values underpinning people’s use of elasmobranchs, including instrumental (economic) benefits, food, culture and tradition, which were enabled by mechanisms such as access to capital, social identity and knowledge. …”

Association between feel-like temperatures and injury risk during international outdoor athletic championships: a prospective cohort study on 29 579 athlete starts during 10 champi... by Edouard, P, Dandrieux, P-E, Klöwer, MK, Junge, A, Racinais, S, Branco, P, Hollander, K, Navarro, L

“…Although the precise mechanism for lower injury rates with higher feel-like temperatures requires further investigation, adapting preparations such as warm-up or clothing to forecasted weather conditions may be of benefit.…”

Rethinking village malaria workers in Cambodia: Perspectives from the communities, programme managers, and international stakeholders by Orng, LH, Jongdeepaisal, M, Khonputsa, P, Dysoley, L, Sovannaroth, S, Peto, TJ, Callery, JJ, Pell, C, Maude, RJ, Liverani, M

“…There was emphasis on the needs for more sustainable financing mechanisms and integration with the existing community health infrastructure. …”

In-silico trials with human modelling and simulation for guiding optimal stratification of atrial fibrillation patients to catheter ablation and pharmacological therapy by Dasí i Martinez, A

“…</p> <br> <p>Throughout the thesis, AF inducibility and maintenance have been evaluated in large populations of virtual patients with variability in relevant clinical features. Different mechanisms of the arrhythmia (i.e., stable micro-re-entries, wavefront meandering, transient rotors and wave breakups) have been linked to specific ionic current dysregulations and their relationship with the structurally-remodelled substrate (i.e., presence of low voltage areas and atrial enlargement).…”

Characterization of oil palm fruitlets using artificial neural network by Olukayode, Ojo Adedayo

“…The LSB_ANN has a unique weight update mechanism which employs network layer input-output sensitivity analysis. …”

Pnictogen-halide semiconductors for photovoltaics by Liu, P

“…This problem could potentially be resolved by tuning the weighing mechanics of the algorithm.</p> <p>My thesis work offers insights into the efficiency-limiting mechanisms in vacancy-ordered triple perovskites, which may also be applicable in other bismuth- and antimony-based perovskite-inspired materials. …”
