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. …”

#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. …”

Cognitive dynamic airspace management by Wong, Cheryl Sze Yin

“…Multi-objective EAs are fundamentally stochastic in nature, hence solutions are likely to be irreproducible. For reproducible and reliable solutions, deterministic algorithms are preferable. …”

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. …”

2DEG enhancement via epilayer stress engineering in AlN/GaN/AlN heterostructure by Patwal, Shashank

“…The higher thermal conductivities of AlN and 4H-SiC are likely to improve heat dissipation, thus providing greater thermal stability and lesser device deterioration due to self-heating. …”
