The facade by Lee, Brian Jun Wei

“…However, as he believes, the horror story stands on its own with art and critique emanating as a side effect; this is one of many beliefs that will be taken into account. …”

Intraday adaptation to extreme temperatures in outdoor activity by Fan, Yichun, Wang, Jianghao, Obradovich, Nick, Zheng, Siqi

“…Such within-day adaptation substantially reduces heat exposure, yet it also delays the active time at night by about half an hour, with potential side effect on sleep quality. Combining empirical estimates with outputs from downscaled climate models, we show that unmitigated climate change will generate sizable activity-depressing and activity-delaying effects in summer when projected on an hourly resolution. …”

Nuptial journeys: A cultural history of wedding travel in selected Habsburg unions ca 1450–1550 by Pastrnak, P

“…Using the case study of Habsburg trans-European wedding alliances between 1450 to 1550, and drawing upon a significant reservoir of sources, this thesis shows that transfers of princely brides(grooms) were not an inconsequential side effect of weddings but were an ideal channel through which to negotiate the social status of dynasties, serve monarchical splendour and memory, prepare elite individuals for their new role and integrate them into their new environment, interact with foreign individuals and form relationships with them. …”

Relative importance of soil properties and functional diversity to the spatial pattern of the forest soil nitrogen by Kang, Jian, Deng, Zebang, Zhang, Zhongrui, Chen, Shuilian, Huang, Jianguo, Ding, Xiaogang

“…However, few studies have investigated the factors influencing SN. The linear mixing effect and generalized additivity model were used to investigate the spatial patterns and influencing factors of SN by collecting and measuring the total nitrogen content of forest soil samples in the middle and lower reaches of the Xijiang River Basin (XRB). …”

The competing use of perfect and aorist tenses in Old Church Slavonic by MacRobert, C

“…It has sometimes been suggested that in the second and third persons singular, which coincide formally in the aorist tense, variation between aorist and perfect forms may to some extent be correlated with explicitly marked distinctions of person in Greek, and may therefore be a side effect of translation; but such correlations are not regular, and the frequency of second person singular perfect forms is higher in some types of text than in others. …”

"Meta-atomless" architecture based on an irregular continuous fabric of coupling-tuned identical nanopillars enables highly efficient and achromatic metasurfaces by Yaǧcl, H. Bilge, Demir, Hilmi Volkan

“…However, to date, a pending and fundamental problem of this approach has been the low device efficiency that such resulting metasurface components suffer, an unwanted side effect of large lattice constants that are used for preventing intercoupling of their meta-atoms. …”

The relationship between viral clearance rates and disease progression in early symptomatic COVID-19: a systematic review and meta-regression analysis by Singh, S, Boyd, S, Schilling, WHK, Watson, JA, Mukaka, M, White, NJ

“…The relationship between the clinical and virological treatment effects was assessed by mixed-effects meta-regression.</p> <p><strong>Results:&nbsp;</strong>From 57 potentially eligible RCTs, VCRRs were derived for 44 (52 384 participants); 32 had &ge;1 clinical endpoint in each arm. …”

Sudden gains in internet cognitive therapy for social anxiety disorder in routine clinical practice by Yim, SH, Clark, DM, Salkovskis, PM, Thew, GR

“…Of 193 treated patients, 146 provided sufficient data to permit analysis. Linear mixed effects models were used to examine the impact of sudden gains on clinical outcomes, and examine changes in negative social cognitions, self-focused attention, and depressed mood.…”

Testing the effect of ecolabels on the environmental impact of food purchases in worksite cafeterias: a randomised controlled trial by Luick, M, Stewart, C, Clark, M, Bateman, P, Biggs, E, Cook, B, Little, M, Wren, GM, Jebb, SA, Pechey, R

“…The mean weekly environmental impact scores of hot meal options over the full 12-week trial period were assessed using hierarchical mixed effects models. Results: There was no significant effect of the intervention on the environmental impact scores of meals sold (mean difference between control and intervention sites: -1.4%, 95%CI: -33.6%, + 30.8%). …”

A Dirichlet-multinomial mixed model for determining differential abundance of mutational signatures by Morrill Gavarró, L, Couturier, D, Markowetz, F

“…Results: We propose a mixed-effects Dirichlet-multinomial model: within-patient correlations are taken into account with random effects, possible correlations between signatures by making such random effects multivariate, and a group-specific dispersion parameter can deal with particularities of the groups. …”

Unexpected anthropogenic emission decreases explain recent atmospheric mercury concentration declines by Feinberg, Aryeh, Selin, Noelle E., Braban, Christine F., Chang, Kai-Lan, Custódio, Danilo, Jaffe, Daniel A., Kyllönen, Katriina, Landis, Matthew S., Leeson, Sarah R., Luke, Winston, Molepo, Koketso M., Murovec, Marijana, Nerentorp Mastromonaco, Michelle G., Aspmo Pfaffhuber, Katrine, Rüdiger, Julian, Sheu, Guey-Rong, St. Louis, Vincent L.

“…Here, we assess the observed trends in gaseous elemental mercury (Hg0) in the NH and apply biogeochemical box modeling and chemical transport modeling to understand the trend drivers. Using linear mixed effects modeling of observational data from 51 stations, we find negative Hg0 trends in most NH regions, with an overall trend for 2005 to 2020 of −0.011 ± 0.006 ng m−3 y−1 (±2 SD). …”

Effects of ifenprodil treatment on pain behaviour, inflammation, and nociceptive responses in the spinal cord of complete freund’s adjuvant-induced chronic polyarthritis rat by Noh, Ain’ Sabreena Mohd

“…This study aimed to investigate the effect of Ifenprodil as a selective NMDAR-2B antagonist on pain behaviour, inflammation, and nociceptive responses in the spinal cord of CFA-induced polyarthritis, as well as its possible side effect on memory function. Arthritic rats received intrathecal treatment of either Ifenprodil (0.5 or 1.0 μg/μL) or Sodium Diclofenac (6 μg) (positive control) whereas arthritic (A) and non-arthritic (C) control groups were administered with 0.9% normal saline for 7 days (day-16 to -22 post-arthritic induction). …”
