Prevalence of West Nile virus in domesticated mammals (cattle, goat, horse and pig) in selected areas of Peninsular Malaysia by Mohammed, Mohammed Nma

“…Among the species, pigs were more likely to be WNV seropositive. In the cattle, location of sample collection was associated with WNV seropositivity, whereas in the goat, age was associated with WNV seropositivity. …”

Detection, characterisation and risk factor of Leptospira spp. among dogs and dog handlers by Goh, Soon Heng

“…The poor knowledge was likely due to the lower education level. Lack of knowledge in terms of clinical sign of the disease will be a challenge for disease management. …”

Low complexity spectrum sensing for cognitive radio enabled aeronautical communication systems by Koodathumkal Mathew Libin

“…The proposed correlator can also serve as the receiver synchronizer for the LDACS air-to-ground links. The architecture is designed in such a way that it can cater to the preamble structure of LDACS air-to-ground transmissions. …”

Synthesis and characterization of Cu-Chalcogenide nanocrystals for potential applications in low-cost solar cells by Ahmadi, Mahshid

“…Hence, it can be deduced that the lattice is distorted and this likely to result in micro-strain in the crystal. The band gap of CuInxGa1-xSe2 NCs was measured optically (UV-Vis spectroscopy) and electrochemically (cyclic voltammetry). …”

#Hooked? Extending the social cognitive model in examining the antecedents of problematic social network sites use among Singaporean adolescents and adults by Lee, Edmund Wei Jian

“…Most notably, a nuanced difference in how paternal and maternal relationships were associated with adolescents’ problematic SNSs was found—adolescents who had poor relationships with their fathers were more likely to depend on SNSs for identity formation—which had the strongest association with deficient self-regulation. …”

Endoscopic third ventriculostomy (ETV) for idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH) by Tudor, Katarina Ivana, Tudor, Mario, McCleery, Jenny, Car, Josip

“…Of the 26 patients in the VP shunting group, 5 developed subdural hematoma postoperatively, while there were no complications among the 16 patients in the ETV group (OR 0.12, 95% CI 0.01 to 2.3, n = 42), but the estimate was too imprecise to determine whether this was likely to reflect a true difference in complication rates. …”

Prioritising conservation areas in Southeast Asia: highlighting zoological biodiversity hotspots and assessing spatiotemporal patterns of the felids guild by Chiaverini, L

“…I highlighted that the most suitable habitats for this group of species showed often pronounced differences with the hotspots for terrestrial vertebrate biodiversity modelled in the first two chapters of this thesis, likely due to the fact that small felids are more specialised than the pool of species used to model biodiversity hotspots, and they require larger and more intact habitats. …”

From the microbial to the mechanical : environmental impacts on coral nitrogen cycling, microbial communities, and skeletal properties by Moynihan, Molly Anne

“…As Porites corals are likely to incur higher forces in the direction parallel to corallite growth, particularly from predation, anisotropy may provide the skeleton with a structural advantage. …”

Pnictogen-halide semiconductors for photovoltaics by Liu, P

“…I obtained pinhole-free morphology through hot-casting at 110 °C and chlorobenzene antisolvent treatment during spin coating, but the power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) obtained for these devices were still poor. It is likely that device performance is fundamentally limited by short charge-charrier transport lengths, such as through carrier localisation and/or exciton formation. …”

Coordinated power management for islanded microgrids by Lin, Pengfeng

“…To meet the requirements of growing subgrid capacities, instead of frequently upgrading a single BIC, a more likely way is to deploy multiple BICs connected in parallel to stack up the power exchange capacity between AC and DC subgrids. …”

Tonsillectomy or adenotonsillectomy versus non‐surgical treatment for chronic/recurrent acute tonsillitis by Burton, MJ, Glasziou, PP, Chong, LY, Venekamp, RP

“…Children who were more severely affected were more likely to benefit as they had a small reduction in moderate/severe sore throat episodes. …”

Global, regional, and national mortality among young people aged 10–24 years, 1950–2019: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019 by Ward, Joseph L., Azzopardi, Peter S., Francis, Kate L., Santelli, John S., Skirbekk, Vegard, Sawyer, Susan M., Kassebaum, Nicholas J., Mokdad, Ali H., Hay, Simon I., Abd-Allah, Foad, Abdoli, Amir, Mohammad Abdollahi, Abedi, Aidin, Abolhassani, Hassan, Abreu, Lucas Guimaraes, Abrigo, Michael R.
