Evaluating the ecotoxicity of agropesticides and environmental water contaminants using cell-line and zebrafish embryonic assays by Tan, Roy Zi Hao

“…The results showed that the pesticides tested exhibited acute lethality and sublethal effects on the model organisms tested, albeit some to a lesser extent than previously reported findings on single active compounds. Our findings also revealed challenges in using a single broad-spectrum solid-phase extraction method to retain pesticide analytes due to their chemical complexity. …”

Line inductance stability operation domain assessment for weak grids with multiple constant power loads by Wang, Rui, Sun, Qiuye, Ma, Dazhong, Qin, Dehao, Gui, Yonghao, Wang, Peng

“…Based on this, the conventional impedance-based stability operation point assessment approaches should be expanded into stability domain assessment approach considering the line inductance variation. Therefore, the stability-oriented line inductance stability domain assessment approach for weak grids with CPLs is proposed in this paper. …”

Heterogeneity in definitions of surgical site infection after cranial surgery limits the validity of research findings in neurosurgery: a systematic review by Majidi, N, Sivakumar, A, Vogt, A, Ranganathan, S, Ashkan, K, Price, SJ, Lee, KS

“…This heterogeneity has hindered the ability to draw conclusions about the effects of interventions, with only 4.0% of authors accounting for this in their findings. It is important to be cautious when reviewing studies that report SSI-CRAN outcomes without acknowledging this heterogeneity, as the validity of their reported evidence may be limited. …”

Effects of "Thursdays at the Museum" at the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts on the mental and physical health of older community dwellers : the art-health randomized clinical trial protocol by Beauchet, Olivier, Cooper-Brown, Liam, Hayashi, Yoko, Galery, Kevin, Vilcocq, Christine, Bastien, Thomas

“…Background: Recently, we demonstrated that the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts’ (MMFA) participatory art-based activity, known as “Thursdays at the Museum,” improved the well-being, quality of life, and physical health (i.e., frailty) of older community dwellers by using a pre-post intervention, single arm, prospective and longitudinal experimental design. …”

Persistent elevation of intrathecal pro-inflammatory cytokines leads to multiple sclerosis-like cortical demyelination and neurodegeneration by James, Rachel E., Schalks, Renee, Browne, Eleanor, Eleftheriadou, Ioanna, Munoz, Carmen Picon, Mazarakis, Nicholas D., Reynolds, Richard

“…Here we tested the hypothesis that persistent production of these cytokines in the meningeal compartment and diffusion into underlying GM can drive chronic MS-like GM pathology. Lentiviral transfer vectors were injected into the sagittal sulcus of DA rats to deliver continuous expression of TNF + IFNγ transgenes in the meninges and the resulting neuropathology analysed after 1 and 2 months. …”

Wireless channel modeling and spectrum monitoring for interference mitigation and link reliability insurance for existing and future CBTC systems by Kalyankar Shravan Kumar

“…The statistics of the clustered data are analyzed to understand the characteristics of radio signals from different access points, and the findings of this technique are presented. The study shows that the proposed approach can be used in real-time monitoring of access points (APs) and help the MRT operators identify the faulty APs without any in-field tests. …”
