Evaluation of subconjunctival liposomal steroids for the treatment of experimental uveitis by Wong, Chee Wai, Czarny, Bertrand, Metselaar, Josbert M., Ho, Candice, Ng, Si Rui, Barathi, Amutha Veluchamy, Storm, Gert, Wong, Tina T.

“…The current gold standard for treatment is topical steroids, but low ocular bioavailability and compliance issues with the intensive dosing regimen limit the efficacy of this treatment. Liposomes as a drug delivery system may help to overcome these problems. …”

Repurposing nitroxoline to address antibiotic resistance in the production of poultry for consumption by Zhou, Y

“…<em>In-vivo</em> evaluation (Chapter 5) established an optimal dosage regimen (100 mg/kg of NTX in feed) for treating <em>Salmonella</em> infections in poultry without promoting the development of resistance. …”

Investigating the impact of growth arrest mechanisms on tumour growth and responses to radiotherapy and hyperthermia by Colson, C

“…In each regime, we determine the biological processes that may underpin positive and negative treatment outcomes and assess which treatment (RT, HT or RT + HT) and dosing regimen maximise the reduction in tumour burden. This work enables us to generate a set of hypotheses that may explain some of the widely varying tumour behaviours observed experimentally and clinically.…”

Cytisine versus varenicline for smoking cessation in a primary care setting: a randomized non-inferiority trial by Oreskovic, T, Percac-Lima, S, Ashburner, JM, Tiljak, H, Rifel, J, Klemenc Ketiš, Z, Oreskovic, S

“…Given the much lower cost of cytisine treatment, its lower rate of adverse events, and higher feasibility (but its likely lower effectiveness with the standard dosage regimen), future analyses should assess the cost-effectiveness of the two treatments for health policy considerations.…”

Semantic mapping for articulated objects by Luar, Shui Song

“…Semantic mapping has advanced greatly since its inception as a research field, to now being able to identify poses and segment objects. As an extension of semantic segmentation problem, there is still an unexplored field of identifying joints of an articulated object within an image. …”

Urban site characterization using DAS dark fibers on the MIT campus in Cambridge, Massachusetts by Chang, Hilary, Nakata, Nori

“…The 1D site-response modeling for shear waves suggests that the fundamental resonance frequency is at 0.6 and 1 Hz, with a sediment-to-bedrock amplitude ratio of 6–7. This should be considered in building design to mitigate seismic hazards. …”

Data analysis of local scour around abutment in compound channel by Zhang, Ruixin

“…This model was built using the relative abutment length (L/yf), abutment aspect ratio (Lc/L), flow intensity (uf/uc), abutment shape factor (Ks), flow depth ratio (yf/ym), and relative sediment size (d50/ yf). Overall, comparisons of calculated and observed maximum equilibrium scour depths indicate that the formula is straightforward in composition and shows good credibility in the computation result.…”

Metasomatism of the continental crust and its impact on surface uplift: insights from reactive‐transport modelling by Worthington, JR, Chin, EJ, Palin, RM

“…High-elevation, low-relief continental plateaus are major topographic features and profoundly influence atmospheric circulation, sediment transport and storage, and biodiversity. Although orogenic surface-uplift mechanisms for modern continental plateaus near known plate margins like Tibet are well-characterized, they cannot account for examples in intracontinental settings like the Colorado Plateau. …”

Geochemical and Sr–Nd–Hf isotopic evidence for Cenozoic partial melting of mantle beneath Natanz, Central Iran by Babazadeh, S, D'Antonio, M, Raeisi, D, Furman, T, Santosh, M, Di Renzo, V, Klötzli, U, Choi, SH, Ghalamghash, J, Cottle, JM, Palin, R

“…Combined modelling of trace element and isotopic data suggests that the most mafic Natanz magmas could have formed through ∼5% melting of a source comprising 99% depleted mantle +1% sediment, with the melts modified subsequently by ∼3% contamination by Cadomian upper crustal components. …”
