Effect of inflammation on apolipoprotein A-1(apoA-1) secretion by intestinal cells. by Yu, Kenneth.

“…On the other hand, a bacterial infection in the intestine that leads to inflammation caused by bacterial lipopolysaccharides and endotoxin may have an adverse effect on intestinal secretion of apoA-l, thus there may be lowered blood concentration of HDL.…”

Software implementation of side-channel analysis on AES encryption with different key length by Heng, Denley Jing Jie

“…However, correlated information such as power consumption and electromagnetic emissions is leaked when the algorithms are implemented on a physical device. This leads to side-channel attacks (SCA) which can be used for exploiting the leakage to recover the cryptographic key. …”

Object-oriented indoor navigation for delivery robot by Li, Yuanwei

“…Although the BERT model has good performance in VLN, the mismatch between instructions and visual information at the input leads to navigation errors for robots in similar scenes. …”

Longitudinal effects of physical discipline on specific dimensions of childhood anxiety by Leow, Jerron

“… • Researchers have reasoned that physical discipline leads to anxiety through causing hypervigilance, maladaptive views of control and the use of less problem-focused coping (Dusek & Danko, 1994; Rapee, 1997; Salkovskis, 1985)…”

Multigrid computation of high-speed turbulent flows in ducts by Ding, Zhongman

“…The existence of shock/turbulent-boundary-layer interaction leads to very complicated flow phenomena and poses a challenge for numerical simulation. …”

Power quality enhancement of isolated power systems through series compensation by Wang, Tongxun

“…This is achieved through phase adjustment of load terminal voltage. It leads to an increase in the ride-through capability of loads to the voltage sags/swells. …”

Fear and attraction : two sides of the same coin? by Muhammad Hidayat Isnin.

“…Fear and attraction are functional behaviours selected by evolution due to their contributions in the survival of an animal species. Fear leads to avoidance from aversions such as predators whereas attraction results in close proximity to food and mates. …”

Multiple functions of shutdown in Drosophila germline development by Chong, Jeronica Wen Hui

“…Loss of function of several piRNA pathway components often leads to sterility. The Drosophila gene, shutdown, was recently reported to be a component of the piRNA pathway in the ovaries. …”

Investigation and solution of bus bunching problem by Tan, Chun Howe

“…However, this headway is not maintained throughout the service route due to uncontrollable factors such as traffic and hazards. This eventually leads to bus bunching at the bus stops where more than one bus of the same service route arrives at the same bus stop although the buses left the interchange at the scheduled timings. …”

The use of copulas in spread trading by Liew, Rong Qi

“…The copula methodology captures non-linear dependencies, making the model robust and this leads to an outcome that is more superior, and therefore better decision. …”

Investigation of the effects of commensurability on friction between concentric carbon nanotubes by Zhu, Chunzhang, Shenai, Prathamesh Mahesh, Zhao, Yang

“…That a commensurate contact usually leads to greater friction than an incommensurate one is a commonly held view in nanotribology. …”

The unintended consequences of improving police recording of rape in England and Wales by Lovett, Jo, Kelly, Liz, Vera-Gray, Fiona

“…Closing such cases at outcomes which make victim-survivors responsible is both inaccurate and leads to misperceptions of where the problems lie in rape investigations.…”

Weighted discounting, time inconsistent stopping and their applications by Wei, W

“…Within a real options framework, for example, greater group diversity leads to delayed investment. Then, we show that well-known behavioral discount functions can be written as a weighted discount function. …”

A scalable variational inference approach for increased mixed-model association power by Loya, H, Kalantzis, G, Cooper, F, Palamara, PF

“…However, performing GWASs on millions of samples often leads to trade-offs between computational efficiency and statistical power, reducing the benefits of large-scale data collection efforts. …”

Multibody structure and motion: 3-D reconstruction of independently moving objects by Fitzgibbon, AW, Zisserman, A

“…</p> <p>We show how this constraint leads to several new results in structure and motion recovery, where Euclidean reconstruction becomes possible in the multibody case, when it was underconstrained for a static scene. …”

Recognising rotationally symmetric surfaces from their outlines by Forsyth, DA, Mundy, JL, Zisserman, A, Rothwell, CA

“…We show, using images of real scenes, that these representations identify surfaces from their outline alone. This leads to fast and effective recognition of curved surfaces. …”

The London money market and non-British bank lending during the first globalisation: evidence from Brazil by Kisling, W, Molteni, M

“…Our results suggest that increased demand for foreign bills and/or decreased borrowing costs in the LMM leads to an increase in credit supply. We use the impact of annual tax payments on the spread between the market and floating rate as an instrumental variable (IV) to show that this relationship is causal. …”

Surface-tension-driven buckling of a thin viscous sheet by Ryan, NPJ, Breward, CJW, Griffiths, IM, Howell, PD

“…We derive leading-order governing equations and boundary conditions for a sheet of viscous fluid retracting freely under surface tension. …”
