(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Background Gender bias may represent a threat to resident assessment during surgical training, and there have been concerns that women might be disadvantaged. There is a lack of studies investigating gender differences ... -
Comparison of physical activity and body composition in a cohort of children born extremely preterm or with extremely low birth weight to matched term-born controls: a follow-up study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Objectives: To compare physical activity and body composition in a cohort of children born extremely preterm/extremely low birth weight (EP/ELBW) with term-born (TB) controls. Methods: A regional cohort of children ... -
Comparison of planar and 3D silicon pixel sensors used for detection of low energy antiprotons
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-12)The principle aim of the AEḡIS experiment at CERN is to measure the acceleration of antihydrogen due to Earth’s gravitational field. This would be a test of the Weak Equivalence Principle, which states that all bodies fall ... -
Comparison of pre-analytical conditions for quantification of serotonin in platelet-poor plasma
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Background: Reported concentrations of serotonin in platelet-poor plasma (PPP) in healthy subjects vary widely due to different pre-analytical procedures. Aim: To examine how different pre-analytical conditions affect the ... -
Comparison of Quality Measures for Walén Relation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)The standard method for identifying magnetohydrodynamic rotational discontinuities in spacecraft data has been to examine how well the Walén relation is satisfied. In this paper, we apply two different versions of the Walén ... -
Comparison of rapid molecular testing methods for detecting respiratory viruses in emergency care: a prospective study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Background Respiratory tract infections (RTIs) caused by contagious viruses are common among patients presenting to the emergency department (ED). Early detection of these viruses can help prevent nosocomial transmissio ... -
Comparison of residual oil cluster size distribution, morphology and saturation in oil-wet and water-wet sandstone
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012-06-01)We imaged an oil-wet sandstone at residual oil saturation (Sor) conditions using X-ray micro-tomography with a nominal voxel size of (9 μm)3 and monochromatic light from a synchrotron source. The sandstone was rendered ... -
A comparison of risk factors for cryptosporidiosis and non-cryptosporidiosis diarrhoea: A case-case-control study in Ethiopian children
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Background: Cryptosporidiosis is a major cause of diarrhoea in young children in low-and-middle-income countries. New interventions should be informed by evidence pertaining to risk factors and their relative importance. ... -
Comparison of RNA-folding structures, in-vivo, in-vitro and in-silico
(Master thesis, 2019-10-31)The main objective of the work has been to develop the understanding of the difference between RNA structure probing approaches; in vivo, in vitro and in silico. Similarities and differences between three libraries of data ... -
Comparison of seven modelling algorithms for γ-aminobutyric acid–edited proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Edited MRS sequences are widely used for studying γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in the human brain. Several algorithms are available for modelling these data, deriving metabolite concentration estimates through peak fitting ... -

A comparison of sexual risk behaviours and HIV seroprevalence among circumcised and uncircumcised men before and after implementation of the safe male circumcision programme in Uganda
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-01-05)Background: Although male circumcision reduces the heterosexual HIV transmission risk, its effect may be attenuated if circumcised men increase sexual risk behaviours (SRB) due to perceived low risk. In Uganda information ... -
Comparison of Solving Techniques for Non-linear Sparse Equations over Finite Fields with Application in Cryptanalysis
(Master thesis, 2008)The work on this thesis gives a summary of the Gluing/Agreeing techniques, as well as a reference implementation of this methods. Furthermore widely used SAT-solving techniques are explained and a short insight to the ... -
Comparison of the efficiency (flash point, freezing point, and viscosity test) of biodiesels from Sargassum sp.
