#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. …”

Computational analysis for infectious diseases surveillance and host-pathogen interactions (in the context of Influenza A viruses) by Beyene, Biruhalem Taye

“…We used host gene expression signatures of cell lines from three species (A549 (human), CEF (chicken), and MDCK (canine) in response to six IAVs (H1N1/WSN, H5N2/F59, H5N2/F118, H5N2/F189, H5N3 and H9N2 viruses). …”

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. …”

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. …”

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. …”

Global fertility in 204 countries and territories, 1950–2021, with forecasts to 2100: a comprehensive demographic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2021 by Bhattacharjee, NV, Schumacher, AE, Aali, A, Almidani, O, Bandyopadhyay, S, Graham, SM, Lacey, BWH, Maude, RJ, Runghien, T, Rodriguez, JAB

“…The reference forecast is our estimate of the most likely fertility future given the model, past fertility, forecasts of covariates, and historical relationships between covariates and fertility. …”
