Sociospatial reframing of walking through inclusive streets and urban heritage by Wang, Yongcheng

“…The analysis revealed broad themes such as a vision of a “car-lite” city and the broadening scope of urban heritage, and specific themes such as heritage trails for learning while walking and the blurred line between locals and tourists. Furthermore, insight into policy implications was derived from a mixed-methods study of the public consultation exercise on urban redevelopment in Macao. …”

Effects of nnav1.5 expression modulation on mhc I antigen processing machinery and invasion potential of breast cancer cells by Din, Ahmad Hafiz Murtadha Noor

“…Loss of immune surveillance enables cancer cells to metastasize hence this study is to explore the possible role of nNav1.5 in regulating the expression of immune components, MHC I antigen processing machinery (APM), which is deregulated in breast cancer. Several reports link VGSC and APM in neurons, but the correlation between nNav1.5 and APM in breast cancer is unknown. …”

Phase measurements based indoor visible light positioning systems by Zhang, Sheng

“…As the GPS signals have severe multi-path effects and strong signal attenuations in indoor buildings, visible light with its line of sight (LOS) property and fewer reflections and diffractions gains advantages in the positioning accuracy over other RF-based techniques.There are several positioning algorithms, the simplest one in structure is the received signal strength (RSS) which has good signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) property, but is not feasible in situations with rotations and intensity disturbance. …”
