Reimagining the Singaporean dream : the rise of entrepreneurial pursuits amongst young adults by Chiang, Alicia Chor Hong, Ong, Chu Wen

“…If so, does it denote a culture shift from a traditionally rigid and risk-averse society to one that embraces entrepreneurial spirit? This paper positions ‘Ideology’ as a key mechanism in influencing the pursuit of entrepreneurship in Singapore given its power to influence its desirability, and the findings suggest that social environment for one to start a business venture in Singapore is not as conducive as it seems at face value given the dynamics of ‘ideological state apparatuses’ at play.…”

Detection of Mycoplasma pneumoniae in hospitalized children with pneumonia in Laos by Vilivong, K, Mayxay, M, Dance, DAB, De Lamballerie, X, Newton, PN, Dubot-Pérès, A

“…The boy had abnormal pulmonary auscultation, and one of the girls had significant anaemia. These results suggest that enhancement of diagnostic systems for <i>M. pneumoniae</i> detection and analysis of its antibiotic resistance profile is needed to raise awareness and improve understanding of the epidemiology of <i>M. pneumoniae</i> infection in Laos, enable targeted therapy, and inform treatment guidelines.…”

Key structural features of microvascular networks leading to the formation of multiple equilibria by Atkinson, G, Ben-Ami, Y, Maini, P, Pitt-Francis, J, Byrne, H

“…Equilibria typically emerge in sets of three, each having a different flow characteristic in one of the network’s redundant vessels. For one of the three equilibria, the flow within the relevant redundant vessel will be smaller in magnitude than the other two and the redundant vessel will contain few Red Blood Cells (RBCs), if any. …”
