(2019-03-01)Stille coupling of 5-chloro-4-oxo-4H-1,2,6-thiadiazin-3-yl trifluoromethanesulfonate (7) with tributyl(3-n-hexylthien-2-yl)stannane and Pd(Ph 3 P) 2 Cl 2 in PhMe at ca. 20 ◦ C, for 24 h gave 3-chloro-5-(3-n-hexylthien-2- ... -
A 5D computational phantom for pharmacokinetic simulation studies in dynamic emission tomography
(2014-01-01)Introduction: Dynamic image acquisition protocols are increasingly used in emission tomography for drug development and clinical research. As such, there is a need for computational phantoms to accurately describe both the ... -
A comparison between experienced and inexperienced video game players’ perceptions
(2013-12-01)In this article we examine the relationship between usability, hedonic attributes and general appeal of two types of video games, first-person shooters, and massively multi-player online role playing games. Through the use ... -
A continuous link between the disk and half-plane cases of Grace's theorem
(2015-01-01)We obtain a continuous link between the disk and half-plane cases of Grace's theorem and new, non-circular zero domains that stay invariant under the Schur–Szegő convolution. -
A controlled clinical pilot trial to study the effectiveness of ice as a supplement to the exercise programme for the management of lateral elbow tendinopathy
(2006-01-01)Background: The use of ice as a supplement to an exercise programme has been recommended for the management of lateral elbow tendinopathy (LET). No studies have examined its effectiveness. Objectives: To investigate whether ... -
A Decentralized Approach for Self-Coexistence among Heterogeneous Networks in TVWS
(2018-02-01)This paper focuses on coexistence and self-coexistence challenges between secondary heterogeneous wireless networks/users sharing TV Whitespace spectrum. The coexistence problems arise from having several primary and ... -
A diet rich in monounsaturated fatty acids improves the lipid profile of mice previously on a diet rich in saturated fatty acids
(2011-11-01)This study investigated whether switching from a diet rich in saturated fatty acids (SAFAs) to a diet rich in monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs) or to one with equal amounts of MUFAs-SAFAs favorably affects the lipid ... -
A dust-enshrouded tidal disruption event with a resolved radio jet in a galaxy merger
(2018-08-03)Tidal disruption events (TDEs) are transient flares produced when a star is ripped apart by the gravitational field of a supermassive black hole (SMBH). We have observed a transient source in the western nucleus of the ... -
