Objective: The aim was to document empirical observations about antecedents to and practices of unsuitable behaviours amongst surgical trainees and develop an interview guide that could be used for the selection process. Design: A mixed methods design was adopted combining a survey distributed to senior surgeons and heads of departments, followed by semi-structured interviews with experienced surg
Chronic pesticide exposure has been linked to several human diseases including cancer, Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, multiple sclerosis, cardiovascular disease, and kidney disease. Due to the potential risks to human health, the usage of pesticides has been a controversial topic. Paraquat (PQ), a commonly used pesticide worldwide, has toxic effects due to its generation of reactive oxy
Stability constants, βn, n = 1, 2, 3, 4, for the chloro and bromo complexes of palladium(II) have been calculated, using a least squares programme, from spectrophotometric measurements at 222, 234.5 and 279 nm (chloride) and at 247, 265, and 332 nm (bromide). The following values of lg(βn/M−n) were obtained: 4.47±0.01, 7.76±0.04, 10.17±0.07, and 11.54±0.09 (chloride) and 5.17±0.02, 9.42±0.04, 12.7
BackgroundIdentifying hate speech (HS) is a central concern within online contexts. Current methods are insufficient for efficient preemptive HS identification. In this study, we present the results of an analysis of automatic HS identification applied to popular alt-right YouTube videos.MethodsThis essay describes methodological challenges of automatic HS detection. The case study concerns data o
Two different techniques exist for glass fiber production, direct melt bushing and marble bushing. The purpose of the project was to study the glass fiber production process and investigate the possibilty of constructing mathematical models from experimental data. This part also included implementation of a DAQ system to obtain the expeimental data. A second objective was to construct an efficent
Protein molecules are responsible for many biological functions in cells. In order to fulfill their various biological roles, these chain-like molecules must fold into precise three-dimensional shapes. The knowledge of accurate molecular structures is a prerequisite for rational drug design and for structure based functional studies. Getting structural information of proteins can be a very difficu
