Beauty and the beast: confronting contrasting perceptions of nature through design by Moxon, Sian

“…As we become increasingly urbanised, we are distancing ourselves from wildness: 83% of UK children cannot identify a bumblebee and most adults no longer notice plants. When we encounter less of the wild world in our daily lives, we can forget its joys and fixate on its threats, from pests to untidiness. …”

A putrescine–anthracene conjugate : a paradigm for selective drug delivery by Palmer, Andrew, Abdul Ghani, Radiah, Kaur, Navneet, Phanstiel, Otto, Wallace, Heather

“…For the first time, uptake of Ant 4 via the PTS was demonstrated both directly and indirectly in human cell lines. In addition, Ant 4 significantly reduced putrescine uptake, demonstrating that this conjugate not only used the PTS, but also could successfully compete with its native polyamine for uptake. …”

Analyzing trust and security in computing and communications systems by Pathan, Al-Sakib Khan

“…However, a notable difference is that whereas trust and security are quite interrelated in human-life scenarios; in technical fields, these are considered as two clearly different issues with distinct boundary lines. In computing and communications fields, trust is a kind of vague term that sets the outline of a task or communication event, based on which the operation can be performed. …”

Classic lattice corneal dystrophy associated with monoclonal gammopathy following exclusion of a TGFBI mutation by Mohd. Kamal, Khairidzan, Rayner, Sylvia A., Chen, Michael C., Aldave, Anthony J.

“…Conclusions While the presence of bilateral, thin, branching lattice lines in the corneal stroma is characteristic of classic lattice corneal dystrophy, this distinctive phenotype may not be associated with a TGFBI coding region mutation, but instead with a myeloproliferative disorder such as MGUS. …”
