Size and shape dependent few-cycle near-field dynamics of bowtie nanoantennas.

Optics express

Lorek E, Mårsell E, Losquin A, Miranda M, Harth A, Guo C, Svärd R, Arnold CL, L'Huiller A, Mikkelsen A, Mauritsson J.
PMID: 26698771
Opt Express. 2015 Nov 30;23(24):31460-71. doi: 10.1364/OE.23.031460.

Metal nanostructures can transfer electromagnetic energy from femtosecond laser pulses to the near-field down to spatial scales well below the optical diffraction limit. By combining few-femtosecond laser pulses with photoemission electron microscopy, we study the dynamics of the induced...

Qualitative evaluation of a text messaging intervention to support patients with active tuberculosis: implementation considerations.

Iribarren SJ, Sward KA, Beck SL, Pearce PF, Thurston D, Chirico C.
PMID: 25802968
JMIR Mhealth Uhealth. 2015 Feb 27;3(1):e21. doi: 10.2196/mhealth.3971.

BACKGROUND: Tuberculosis (TB) remains a major global public health problem and mobile health (mHealth) interventions have been identified as a modality to improve TB outcomes. TextTB, an interactive text-based intervention to promote adherence with TB medication, was pilot-tested in...

Variation in the Oxytocin Receptor Gene Is Associated with Face Recognition and its Neural Correlates.

Frontiers in behavioral neuroscience

Westberg L, Henningsson S, Zettergren A, Svärd J, Hovey D, Lin T, Ebner NC, Fischer H.
PMID: 27713694
Front Behav Neurosci. 2016 Sep 22;10:178. doi: 10.3389/fnbeh.2016.00178. eCollection 2016.

The ability to recognize faces is crucial for daily social interactions. Recent studies suggest that intranasal oxytocin administration improves social recognition in humans. Oxytocin signaling in the amygdala plays an essential role for social recognition in mice, and oxytocin...

Heat waves and urban heat islands in Europe: A review of relevant drivers.

The Science of the total environment

Ward K, Lauf S, Kleinschmit B, Endlicher W.
PMID: 27366983
Sci Total Environ. 2016 Nov 01;569:527-539. doi: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2016.06.119. Epub 2016 Jun 28.

The climate change and the proceeding urbanization create future health challenges. Consequently, more people around the globe will be impaired by extreme weather events, such as heat waves. This study investigates the causes for the emergence of surface urban...

Modelling the species jump: towards assessing the risk of human infection from novel avian influenzas.

Royal Society open science

Hill AA, Dewé T, Kosmider R, Von Dobschuetz S, Munoz O, Hanna A, Fusaro A, De Nardi M, Howard W, Stevens K, Kelly L, Havelaar A, Stärk K.
PMID: 26473042
R Soc Open Sci. 2015 Sep 09;2(9):150173. doi: 10.1098/rsos.150173. eCollection 2015 Sep.

The scientific understanding of the driving factors behind zoonotic and pandemic influenzas is hampered by complex interactions between viruses, animal hosts and humans. This complexity makes identifying influenza viruses of high zoonotic or pandemic risk, before they emerge from...

A comparison of skinfolds and leg-to-leg bioelectrical impedance for the assessment of body composition in children.

Dynamic medicine : DM

Goss F, Robertson R, Williams A, Sward K, Abt K, Ladewig M, Timmer J, Dixon C.
PMID: 14498990
Dyn Med. 2003 Aug 26;2(1):5. doi: 10.1186/1476-5918-2-5.

BACKGROUND: This field-based investigation examined the congruence between skinfolds and bioelectrical impedance in assessing body composition in children. METHODS: Subjects were 162 female and 160 male children 10-15 years of age. Skinfold measures obtained at the triceps and medial...

Longer postpartum hospitalization options--who stays, who leaves, what changes?.

BMC pregnancy and childbirth

Watt S, Sword W, Krueger P.
PMID: 16225678
BMC Pregnancy Childbirth. 2005 Oct 14;5:13. doi: 10.1186/1471-2393-5-13.

BACKGROUND: This paper examines the practice implications of a policy initiative, namely, offering women in Ontario Canada up to a 60-hour postpartum in-hospital stay following an uncomplicated vaginal delivery. This change was initiated out of concern for the effects...

Multicenter validation of a computer-based clinical decision support tool for glucose control in adult and pediatric intensive care units.

Journal of diabetes science and technology

Thompson BT, Orme JF, Zheng H, Luckett PM, Truwit JD, Willson DF, Duncan Hite R, Brower RG, Bernard GR, Curley MA, Steingrub JS, Sorenson DK, Sward K, Hirshberg E, Morris AH.
PMID: 19885199
J Diabetes Sci Technol. 2008 May;2(3):357-68. doi: 10.1177/193229680800200304.

INTRODUCTION: Hyperglycemia during critical illness is common, and intravenous insulin therapy (IIT) to normalize blood glucose improves outcomes in selected populations. Methods differ widely in complexity, insulin dosing approaches, efficacy, and rates of hypoglycemia. We developed a simple bedside-computerized...

Superior recognition performance for happy masked and unmasked faces in both younger and older adults.

Frontiers in psychology

Svärd J, Wiens S, Fischer H.
PMID: 23226135
Front Psychol. 2012 Nov 30;3:520. doi: 10.3389/fpsyg.2012.00520. eCollection 2012.

In the aging literature it has been shown that even though emotion recognition performance decreases with age, the decrease is less for happiness than other facial expressions. Studies in younger adults have also revealed that happy faces are more...

Mutation accumulation, performance, fitness.

Integrative and comparative biology

Huey RB, Gilchrist GW, Ward K, Maves L, Pepin D, Houle D.
PMID: 21680447
Integr Comp Biol. 2003 Jul;43(3):387-95. doi: 10.1093/icb/43.3.387.

The morphology-performance-fitness paradigm is usually explored by determining whether natural or "phenotypically engineered" variation among individuals in morphology (physiology) or performance covaries with an index of fitness such as survival. Here we study between-line covariation between performance and fitness...

Patterns of animal diseases and their control.
