Fraudulent mediums and miracle-mongers: illusion, concealment and revelation in the works of Crivelli, Greenberg and Houdini by David, Karen

“…This article aims to raise questions and comparisons between illusions found in pictorial language, magical apparatus and parafictions, illustrating the fine line between illusion and material, and concealment and revelation.…”

Planning with object creation by Corrêa, AB, De Giacomo, G, Helmert, M, Rubin, S

“…One key aspect of PDDL is that the set of objects cannot be modified during plan execution. While this is fine in many domains, sometimes it makes modeling more complicated. …”

Large deviation estimates of Selberg’s central limit theorem and applications by Arguin, L-P, Bailey, E

“…The proof is an adaptation of the recursive scheme introduced by Bourgade, Radziwi l l and one of the authors to prove fine asymptotics for the maximum on intervals of length 1.…”

Timing performance of a MCP photon detector read out with multi-channel electronics for the TORCH system by Castillo García, L, Fopma, JM, Forty, R, Frei, C, Gao, R, Gys, T, Harnew, N, Piedigrossi, T

“…Timing properties are obtained at modest MCP gain, without time walk correction and no fine calibration of the time-to-digital converter circuit. …”

Quantifying behavior-based gender discrimination on collaborative platforms by Vásárhelyi, O, Vedres, B

“…We analyzed the extent of behavior-based gender discrimination on two digital platforms, GitHub and Behance, focused on software development and fine arts and design. We found that the main cause of women’s disadvantage in attention, success, and survival is largely due to the gender typicality of their behavior that varies between 60 and 90% of the total disadvantage of women. …”

V4C3TxMXene : a promising active substrate for reactive surface modification and the enhanced electrocatalytic oxygen evolution activity by Du, Cheng‐Feng, Sun, Xiaoli, Yu, Hong, Fang, Wei, Jing, Yao, Wang, Yonghui, Li, Shuiqing, Liu, Xianhu, Yan, Qingyu

“…Presented are the synthesis, characterizations, and reactive surface modification (RSM) of a novel nine atomic layered V4C3T x MXene. With the advantages of the multilayered V4C3T x MXene that can simultaneously support the RSM reaction and keep the inner skeleton stable, a series of amorphous Ni/Fe/V‐ternary oxide hydroxides thin layer can be successfully modified on the surface of the V4C3T x MXene (denoted as MOOH @V4C3T x, M = Ni, Fe, and V) without disrupting its original structure. …”

Cognitive and physical age gaps in relation to mild cognitive impairment and behavioral phenotypes by Yu Junhong, Ng, Ted Kheng Siang, Mahendran, Rathi

“…Cognitive and physical age-prediction models were fitted using nine cognitive and eight physical fitness test scores, respectively, within the training samples, and subsequently used to estimate cognitive and physical age gaps for each subject in the testing sample. …”

The behaviour of steel and composite structures under a middle-column-removal scenario by Yang, Bo

“…In order to achieve a better understanding on the performance of bolted-angle connections under a middle-column-removal scenario, nine experimental tests were carried out on different types of bolted-angle beam-column joints. …”

Nuclei sorting-based genome-wide CRISPR screens to identify novel regulators of hepatic insulin signalling by Martin Perez, E

“…To systematically study the insulin signalling network, we developed and validated a novel experimental pipeline that uses nuclei isolation followed by fluorescent activated nuclei sorting (FANS) as an approach for pooled CRISPR screening. We carried out nine genome-wide pooled CRISPR screens using nuclei isolated from hepatocytes under either starved, basal insulin or insulin resistance conditions. …”

Enhancement of lentiviral vector production through alteration of virus-cell interactions by Gelinas, J

“…Application of the screen to 89 candidate inhibitory factors identified nine genes which, when knocked-down, resulted in increased lentiviral vector production by more than 40%. …”

Use of hormone replacement therapy and risk of breast cancer: nested case-control studies using the QResearch and CPRD databases by Vinogradova, Y, Coupland, C, Hippisley-Cox, J

“…In recent oestrogen only users, between three (in younger women) and eight (in older women) extra cases per 10 000 women years would be expected, and in oestrogen-progestogen users between nine and 36 extra cases per 10 000 women years. For past oestrogen-progestogen users, the results would suggest between two and eight extra cases per 10 000 women years. …”

In-silico trials with human modelling and simulation for guiding optimal stratification of atrial fibrillation patients to catheter ablation and pharmacological therapy by Dasí i Martinez, A

“…</p> <br> <p>Moreover, the ionic current substrate also influences the outcomes of catheter ablation therapy, although the latter is mainly determined by the presence of heterogeneities in tissue structure (i.e., presence of low voltage areas) and the bi-atrial size (i.e., left and right atrial volume). In fact, analysis of nine state-of-the-art catheter ablation strategies suggests that the assessment of the latter patient characteristics could guide stratification of AF patients to optimal ablation therapies.…”

Knowledge, beliefs, perceptions and barriers related to implementing smoke-free home practices in two rural settlement areas in Malaysia by Kamni, Siti Nurhasyimah Ayuni, Saiful Bahron, Nur Ain Nadhirah, Zulkifli, Aziemah, Uny, Isabelle, O’Donnell, Rachel, Prabandari, Yayi Suryo, Bintoro, Bagas Suryo, Zainal Abidin, Emilia, Semple, Sean

“…No association was found between sociodemographic factors and knowledge level. Seven of the nine interviewees knew specific SHS-related health risks. …”
