Heat transfer of 3D-printed porous structure used in cold plate by Tew, Hong Boon

“…Subsequently, experiments were conducted on three porous-filled cold plates with unit cell dimensions of 7 mm, 10 mm and 13 mm, which correspond to porosity values of 64.8%, 75.8% and 95.5%, respectively. The experiments were conducted in a closed circulation loop with ReD ranging from 794 to 4796, with11 data points taken for each cold plate specimen. …”

The iDEA architecture-focused FPGA soft processor by Cheah, Hui Yan

“…Finally, we show how a restricted forwarding scheme that uses an internal DSP block accumulation path can eliminate some of the dependency overheads in executing programs, achieving a 25% improvement in execution time, compared to an alternative forwarding path implemented in the logic fabric, which offers only a 5% improvement. We benchmark our processor with a range of representative benchmarks and analyse it at the compiler, instruction, and cycle levels.…”

The ethics of silence : reading the lover's discourse in contemporary trauma narratives by Goh, Pei Hua

“…This is even more significant for third generation Holocaust writers like Krauss, for whom the Holocaust itself has already become “an increasingly mediated cultural memory” (Krignen 5). Therefore, literature is a particularly suitable medium for engaging with an unspeakable and inaccessible subject matter that cannot be directly approached. …”

Evaluation of CareStart™ malaria HRP2/pLDH (Pf/PAN) combo rapid diagnostic test for diagnosis of Plasmodium falciparum infection in malaria co-endemic areas in association with par... by Christian, M, Ekawati, LL, Pratama, AR, Cahyaningati, S, Bere, HK, Rustam, M, Kalbuadi, I, Andini, J, Yuliana, J, Fadilah, I, Ley, B, Thriemer, K, Price, RN, Sutanto, I, Baird, JK

“…For each ten-fold increase in parasite density, the RDT had 12 times the odds of returning Pf/Pan-positive results (n = 126) compared to Pf-positive (n = 19) (OR: 12.1; 95% CI 5.18 to 34.8; p < 0.001). Conclusions: CareStart™ Pf/Pan RDT is reliable in diagnosing falciparum malaria and Pf/Pan-positive results indicate higher parasite density. …”

Preterm birth and cardiometabolic health trajectories from birth to adulthood: the Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children by Clayton, GL, Howe, LD, O’Keeffe, LM, Lewandowski, A, Lawlor, DA, Fraser, A

“…By age 25, this difference in SBP began to attenuate towards the null (0.9mmHg;95%CI(-0.5,2.3)) Participants born preterm (versus term) had lower BMI between ages 7 and 18, but by age 25, there was no difference. …”

Characterising the metabolic functionality of the preterm neonatal gut microbiome prior to the onset of necrotising enterocolitis: a pilot study by Chapman, JA, Wroot, E, Brown, T, Beck, LC, Embleton, ND, Berrington, JE, Stewart, CJ

“…Results: Eight NEC infants were selected of median gestation 26.5 weeks and median day of life (DOL) of NEC onset 20, with one sample used per infant, collected within one to eight days (median four) before NEC onset. …”

Direct measurement of magnetic monopole charge and transport dynamics by Hsu, C

“…By combining Monte Carlo simulation and monopole current measurements, signatures from dynamical fractal motion are identified. Chapter 5 further investigates the monopole noise towards lower temperatures, leading to the discovery of dynamical heterogeneity of the magnetic monopole fluid in its supercooled state. …”

Development and validation of multiplex real-time PCR for simultaneous detection of six bacterial pathogens causing lower respiratory tract infections and antimicrobial resistance... by Dung, TTN, Phat, VV, Vinh, C, Lan, NPH, Phuong, NLN, Ngan, LTQ, Thwaites, G, Thwaites, L, Rabaa, M, Nguyen, ATK, Duy, PT

“…</p> <p><strong>Results: </strong>The sensitivity of RT-PCR assays was 100% for <em>K. pneumoniae</em>, <em>A. baumannii</em>, <em>P. aeruginosa</em>, <em>E. coli</em> and 63.6% for <em>S. aureus</em> and the specificity ranged from 87.5% to 97.6%. The kappa correlation values of all pathogens between the two methods varied from 0.63 to 0.95. …”

Understanding the molecular mechanism of ion and amino acid transport in neurons by Baroniņa, A

“…I used X-ray crystallography to determine the structures of TREK-2 with bound activatory and inactivatory nanobodies at 2.4 Å and 3.5 Å resolution, respectively. Both nanobodies bind to the channel from the extracellular side but interact with different domains to elicit the opposite effects on the channel conductivity. …”
