Optimising statistical methodologies for estimating antimalarial efficacy for uncomplicated Plasmodium falciparum malaria by Dahal, P

“…For dihydroartemisinin-piperaquine (DP) regimen, a study with 42 day follow-up was estimated to miss 47% [95% CI: 19 – 90%] of the treatment failures in those who were adequately dosed. …”

Analyses of human vaccine-specific circulating and bone marrow-resident B cell populations reveal benefit of delayed vaccine booster dosing with blood-stage malaria antigens by Barrett, JR, Silk, SE, Mkindi, CG, Kwiatkowska, KM, Hou, MM, Lias, AM, Kalinga, WF, Mtaka, IM, McHugh, K, Bardelli, M, Davies, H, King, LDW, Edwards, NJ, Chauhan, VS, Mukherjee, P, Rwezaula, S, Chitnis, CE, Olotu, AI, Minassian, AM, Draper, SJ, Nielsen, CM

“…In contrast, the CD4+ and CD8+ T cell responses were impacted by vaccine platform but not dosing regimen and did not correlate with in vivo growth inhibition in a challenge model. …”

Natural resources and income inequality in Africa. by Charasz, Pawel.

“…However, the overall effect is dependent upon the political regime and level of population heterogeneity. Whereas natural resources themselves were on average contributing positively to income inequality, greater degree of democracy reduces this effect and greater level of population heterogeneity increases this effect.…”

Effects of resonant tunneling on intrinsic linewidth of quantum cascade lasers by Liu, T., Wang, Q. J.

“…The quantum Langevin analysis for QCLs show that coupling strength and dephasing rate strongly affect the linewidth of THz QCLs in incoherent resonant-tunneling transport regime, but induce insignificant influence for mid-infrared QCLs due to strong coupling.…”

Acceleration by Stepsize Hedging: Multi-Step Descent and the Silver Stepsize Schedule by Altschuler, Jason, Parrilo, Pablo

“…This leads to a phase transition in the convergence rate: initially super-exponential (acceleration regime), then exponential (saturation regime). The core algorithmic intuition is hedging between individually suboptimal strategiesÐshort steps and long stepsÐsince bad cases for the former are good cases for the latter, and vice versa. …”

Forces on oscillating uniform and tapered cylinders in a crossflow by Hover, F. S., Techet, A. H., Triantafyllou, M.S.

“…Calculation of the cross-correlation coefficient between forces at the two ends of the uniform cylinder reveals five distinct regimes as a function of the nominal reduced velocity Vrn: two regimes, for low and high values of Vrn, and far away from the value of VrS corresponding to the Strouhal frequency, show small correlation; two regimes immediately adjacent to, but excluding, VrS show strong correlation, close to 1; surprisingly, there is a regime containing the Strouhal frequency, within which correlation is low. …”

Study of inertial hydrodynamic focusing in sheath-driven flows for lab-on-a-chip flow cytometry by Panwar, Nishtha, Song, Peiyi, Yong, Ken-Tye, Tjin, Swee Chuan

“…Most models predict the width of the focused sample stream based on hydrodynamic focusing in the low Reynolds number regime (Re << 1), where the viscous forces dominate the inertial forces. …”

BCC metals in extreme environments: modelling the structure and evolution of defects by Gilbert, M

“…We present results from large-scale finite temperature molecular dynamics simulations of screw dislocations under stress and observe the thermally-activated kink-pair formation regime at low stress, which appears to be superseded by a frictional regime at higher stresses. …”
