This study was undertaken to create an Asiatic black bear (Ursus thibetanus; ABB) ethogram during hibernation and to PYJAMAS describe the time budget of hibernating behaviours in ABB.Seven captive adult ABB were included in the study and began hibernation between October and December.Data were collected for three consecutive years (2013-2015) durin
A one-year pilot study comparing direct-infusion high resolution mass spectrometry based untargeted metabolomics to targeted diagnostic screening for inherited metabolic diseases
Background: Early diagnosis of inherited metabolic diseases (IMDs) is important because treatment may lead to reduced mortality and improved prognosis.Due to their diversity, it is a challenge to diagnose IMDs in Brush Bar time, effecting an emerging need for a comprehensive test to acquire an overview of metabolite status.Untargeted metabolomics h
Compliance of a rigid joint of a steel column of I-section on a rigid foundation
The article considers the compliance of a Car Audio Power Wiring rigid assembly of a steel column of a typical I-section under the loads of an eccentric-compressive load with a random eccentricity.A simplified scheme of pinching a rigid hinge is considered as well as its detailed version in which the rigid part of the rod is elaborated as a basemen
Looking on the bright side in social anxiety: the potential benefit of promoting positive mental imagery.
Current cognitive models of social phobia converge on the view that negative imagery is a key factor in the development and maintenance of the disorder.Research to date has predominantly Antenna focussed on the detrimental impact of negative imagery on cognitive bias and anxiety symptoms, while the potential benefit of promoting positive imagery ha
Efficient Positivity-Preserving NSFD Scheme: Application to Advection-Diffusion-Reaction Equation
Solving problems across a wide range of scientific and engineering domains, encompassing physical, mechanical and biological systems as well as financial markets, necessitates addressing parabolic equations of the advection-diffusion-reaction (ADR) variety.In these multifaceted problems, our primary Brush Bar objectives invariably involve determini
