Acute phase gene expression in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) after exposure to a confinement stressor: A comparison of pooled and individual data
(Elsevier, 2009-06-09)This study set out to investigate whether differential expression of genes for acute phase proteins in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) could be induced by confinement stress, a non-invasive method of activating the ... -
Acute skeletal myopathy in farmed atlantic salmon salmo salar
(Inter-Research Science Center, 1992-01-01)This paper describes the clinical findings, histopathology and biochemistry of a significant disease affecting marine stage Atlantic salmon in Ireland, known as 'sudden death syndrome'. Pathological findings were located ... -
Acute toxicity profile of maprotiline in the rat
(Wiley-Blackwell, 1999-10-01)The aim of the present study was to examine the toxic effects of single oral administrations of the antidepressant maprotiline at 150 mg/kg or 300 mg/kg using female Sprague-Dawley rats. Body-weight gain was significantly ... -
Adaptation of parents raising a child with ASD: The role of positive perceptions, coping, self-efficacy, and social support
(Springer, 2022-05-04)This study explored the adaptation of parents raising a child with an Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) specifically the contributory role of positive perceptions, coping, self-efficacy, and social support. One hundred and ... -
Adaptive artifact removal for selective multistatic microwave breast imaging signals
(Elsevier, 2017-02-01)Microwave imaging is one of the most promising alternative breast imaging modalities. Early-stage artifact removal is an important signal processing component of a microwave breast imaging system. In this paper, a monostatic ... -
An adaptive bitrate switching algorithm for speech applications in the context of WebRTC

Adaptive clinical trials of sodium lowering in chronic kidney disease and dialysis: Analytic and methodologic challenges
(NUI Galway, 2022-04-24)The incidence and prevalence of kidney failure requiring dialysis is rising. Patients receiving dialysis are at increased cardiovascular risk, compared to the general population. Hypertension due to sodium and volume excess ... -
The adaptive functions of music listening: structure, correlates, and consequences
(2017-01-31)The current thesis involves three studies employing qualitative, quantitative and experimental methods to examine the relationship between music listening and wellbeing. Study 1 used the collective intelligence methodology, ... -
Adaptive knowledge extraction and loose semantic coupling in multimedia publish/subscribe overlay networks
(NUI Galway, 2022-06-14)The primary use of communication networks today has shifted towards content dis-tribution despite being originally designed for conversations between communicatingendpoints. The massive amounts of data ... -
Adaptive living skills, sleep problems, and mental health problems in adults with 22q11.21 deletion syndrome
(Elsevier, 2023-03-23)Background 22q11.21 deletion syndrome (22q11DS) is a neurodevelopmental syndrome caused by a microdeletion of genes at the 22q11.21 locus. It has a prevalence of 1:2000. This study investigated the prevalence of adaptive ... -
Adaptive Mesh Multi-Scale Modelling of Tidal Hydraulics and Material Transport
(2011)Multi-scale modelling for structured meshes is achieved by nesting high resolution grids within lower resolution grids. By specifying high resolutions in areas of interest only, computational cost can be reduced. Adaptive ... -
An adaptive mesh solute transport model
(2009)An adaptive mesh solute transport model is presented. The adaptive mesh scheme is implemented in a one-way multiply nested version of the hydrobiological model DIVAST (Depth Integrated Velocity and Solute Transport). The ... -
