Optimising investigative pathways in military medicine: operational impact of a military cardiopulmonary exercise testing clinic by Holland, JL, Cowie, P, Gardner, L, Mulae, J, Richards, S, Holdsworth, D

“…Individuals were referred for dyspnoea (22.1%), syncope (11.4%), chest pain (8.1%) (referred to as ‘higher risk’ symptom group), and pre-syncope (8.1%), palpitations (8.1%), and fatigue and/or exercise intolerance (6.0%) (referred to as ‘lower risk’ symptom group). 34% were asymptomatic with incidental findings on cardiac screening investigations. Reduced exercise capacity was rare, affecting only 11% of individuals, which was borderline/mild at worst. …”

Innovation and firm survival: the role of timing, funding, and networks by Gao, Ming

“…This not only sheds new light on how SMEs innovation-survival relationship is shaped by the timing of initiating innovation but also how this relationship is moderated by external financial support and collaborative networks from different sources, including the public and private sectors. Our findings will not only enlighten the policymakers in drafting different supportive schemes to provide aid to the SMEs but also the entrepreneurs in establishing routines for managing their innovation activities and taking full advantage of external financial support and collaborative networks to improve their innovation and business performance.…”

Regulation of coronavirus gene expression by the 5'-untranslated region. by Guo, Huiling.

“…As a result of deleting 362 nts from the 5’-UTR, a 2-fold increment in gene expression was observed, which confirmed the finding made by Liu et al. (1998). Furthermore, it was found that a disruption of SL1 could result in a slight decrease in gene expression. …”

Social gating of statistical learning in infants through interpersonal neural synchrony by Teo, Kai Xin

“…Infants of 8 to 10 months old (n = 18) were recruited and results showed that there were significant effects of eye- contact on neural synchrony (within-infant, within-adult, and infant-adult), but it was only found for within-infant synchrony in the full eye-contact condition. No significant findings were found between neural synchrony and statistical language learning. …”
