Measuring socioeconomic status in multicountry studies: results from the eight-country MAL-ED study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-03-21)Background: There is no standardized approach to comparing socioeconomic status (SES) across multiple sites in epidemiological studies. This is particularly problematic when cross-country comparisons are of interest. We ... -
Measuring strategic control in implicit learning: How and why?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-09-24)Several methods have been developed for measuring the extent to which implicitly learned knowledge can be applied in a strategic, flexible manner. Examples include generation exclusion tasks in Serial Reaction Time (SRT) ... -
Measuring the end of hunger: Knowledge politics in the selection of SDG food security indicators
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Ending world hunger remains one of the central global challenges, but the question of how to measure and define the problem is politically charged. This article chronicles and analyses the indicator selection process for ... -
Measuring universal health coverage based on an index of effective coverage of health services in 204 countries and territories, 1990–2019: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Background Achieving universal health coverage (UHC) involves all people receiving the health services they need, of high quality, without experiencing financial hardship. Making progress towards UHC is a policy priority ... -
Measuring User Engagement from Interactive Media
(Master thesis, 2022-06-01)In this study, we delve into the concept of user engagement to see how user engagement is affected by the use of interactive media. Necessary literature will define user engagement to give us a clear idea of what we are ... -
Mechanical assist in cardiac arrest: Optimising circulatory support. Experimental studies.
(Doctoral thesis, 2022-03-30)Introduction: Mechanical circulatory support (MCS) may be useful in cardiac arrest (CA), both in- and out- of hospital. However, efficacy and survival benefit has been difficult to evaluate compared to standard cardiopulmonary ... -
Mechanical behavior and collagen structure of degenerative mitral valve leaflets and a finite element model of primary mitral regurgitation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Degenerative mitral valve disease is the main cause of primary mitral regurgitation with two phenotypes: fibroelastic deficiency (FED) often with localized myxomatous degeneration and diffuse myxomatous degeneration or ... -
Mechanical design and thermal properties of the carbon layers of the proton CT tracking system
(Master thesis, 2021-01-15)Cancer treatment is one of the largest and fastest growing fields in medical physics and technology. Particle therapy is considered a significant improvement for treating certain types of cancer and particle therapy ... -
A mechanical energy budget for the North Sea
(Journal article, 2004-06-29)A three-dimensional baroclinic numerical model is used to quantify the components of the mechanical energy budget for a semi-enclosed sea, the North Sea. As anticipated, tidal energy is the largest supplier of mechanical ... -
Mechanical properties of selected granitoids along the Karora hydropower project, Besham, Northern Pakistan: Insights from petrography and joint analysis
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)The stability of tunnel site depends upon the deformation behaviors of the surrounding rocks, including joint density, mineral composition, micro cracks, and grain boundaries. The aim of this study was to analyze the ... -
Mechanical resistance in unstructured proteins
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2013-06-18)Single-molecule pulling experiments on unstructured proteins linked to neurodegenerative diseases have measured rupture forces comparable to those for stable folded proteins. To investigate the structural mechanisms of ... -
Mechanical stress shapes the cancer cell response to neddylation inhibition
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Background The inhibition of neddylation by the preclinical drug MLN4924 represents a new strategy to combat cancer. However, despite being effective against hematologic malignancies, its success in solid tumors, where ... -
Mechanically reinforced, flexible, hydrophobic and uv impermeable starch-cellulose nanofibers (Cnf)-lignin composites with good barrier and thermal properties
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Bio-based composite films have been widely studied as potential substitutes for conventional plastics in food packaging. The aim of this study was to develop multifunctional composite films by introducing cellulose nanofibers ... -

(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-09-27)The salmon louse is an ectoparasitic copepod of salmonids in the marine environment, and represents a global challenge to salmon aquaculture. A major issue is the reliance of the industry on a limited number of chemicals ... -
The Mechanism for Improved Polymer Gel Blocking During Low-Salinity Waterfloods, Investigated Using Positron Emission Tomography Imaging
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Polymer gels can be placed in fractures within subsurface reservoirs to improve sweep efficiency during subsequent floods, and its success is largely determined by the gel’s ability to completely occupy the fracture volume. ... -
Mechanism of actin N-terminal acetylation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)About 80% of human proteins are amino-terminally acetylated (Nt-acetylated) by one of seven Nt-acetyltransferases (NATs). Actin, the most abundant protein in the cytoplasm, has its own dedicated NAT, NAA80, which acts ... -
