This study assessed health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and musculoskeletal function in patients with musculoskeletal disorders after participation in group-based aqua-exercising, compared to before participation. Physiotherapists instructed group-based aqua-exercising for 30 min twice a week for 8 weeks in 39 patients (81% women, mean age 55 ± 12 years), with musculoskeletal disorders locat...

Although shoreface nourishments are an increasingly interesting option for coastal managers to counteract coastal erosion, their design is often highly empirical. A better understanding of the way shoreface nourishments interact with the initial beach profile may help to reduce the degree of empiricism in nourishment design. Literature study has shown that numerical modelling is commonly used t...

Although early texts state that 2 “the mechanism of the positive column is fairly well understood”, Chapman warns us 4 that, “We should heed the warning of Cobine (1958) ......., that no sources are infallible, that all proofs should be questioned, and that no discharge phenomena are so well understood that data can be applied precisely.” On the face of it, the Ip-VC curve in our experiments is...

Purple areas represent the estimated density of the hub distributions (bottlenecks) and blue areas represent non-hub (non-bottlenecks) areas. (A) Comparison of the estimated density of distribution of miRNAs numbers between hubs (bottlenecks) and non-hubs (non-bottlenecks). (B) Comparison of the estimated density of the distribution of virus types between hubs (bottlenecks) and non-hubs (non-bo...
