Dali: vitamin d and lifestyle intervention for gestational diabetes mellitus (gdm) prevention: an european multicentre, randomised trial – study protocol
(Springer Nature, 2013-07-05)Background: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is an increasing problem world-wide. Lifestyle interventions and/or vitamin D supplementation might help prevent GDM in some women. Methods/design: Pregnant women at risk of ... -
Dark matter constraints from a joint analysis of dwarf spheroidal galaxy observations with veritas
(American Physical Society (APS), 2017-04-05)We present constraints on the annihilation cross section of weakly interacting massive particles dark matter based on the joint statistical analysis of four dwarf galaxies with VERITAS. These results are derived from an ... -
Dark spot, spiral waves and the sw sextantis behaviour: it is all about ux ursae majoris
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2010-10-12)We present an analysis of time-resolved, medium-resolution optical spectroscopic observations of UX Ursae Majoris (UX UMa) in the blue (3920-5250 A) and red (6100-7200 A) wavelength ranges that were obtained in 1999 April ... -

Data independent radar beamforming algorithms for breast cancer detection
(EMW Publishing, 2010-01-01)Ultra wideband (UWB) Microwave imaging is one of the most promising emerging imaging technologies for breast cancer detection, and is based on the dielectric contrast between normal and cancerous tissues at microwave ... -

Ddk dependent regulation of top2a at centromeres revealed by a chemical genetics approach
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2016-07-12)In eukaryotic cells the CDC7/DBF4 kinase, also known as DBF4-dependent kinase (DDK), is required for the firing of DNA replication origins. CDC7 is also involved in replication stress responses and its depletion sensitises ... -
Dead cores of singular dirichlet boundary value problems with ϕ-laplacian
(Institute of Mathematics, Czech Academy of Sciences, 2008-07-30)The paper discusses the existence of positive solutions, dead core solutions and pseudodead core solutions of the singular Dirichlet problem (phi(u'))' = lambda f(t, u, u'), u(0) = u(T) = A. Here lambda is the positive ... -

Deciphering the bipolar planetary nebula abell 14 with 3d ionization and morphological studies
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2016-02-23)Abell 14 is a poorly studied object despite being considered a born-again planetary nebula. We performed a detailed study of its 3D morphology and ionization structure using the SHAPE and MOCASSIN codes. We found that Abell ... -
Decision landscapes: visualizing mouse-tracking data
(The Royal Society, 2017-11-01)Computerized paradigms have enabled gathering rich data on human behaviour, including information on motor execution of a decision, e.g. by tracking mouse cursor trajectories. These trajectories can reveal novel information ... -
Decisions in motion: decision dynamics during intertemporal choice reflect subjective evaluation of delayed rewards
(Springer Nature, 2016-02-12)People tend to discount rewards or losses that occur in the future. Such delay discounting has been linked to many behavioral and health problems, since people choose smaller short-term gains over greater long-term gains. ... -
Decreased myometrial p160 rock-1 expression in obese women at term pregnancy
(Springer Nature, 2013-01-01)Background: Obesity is becoming an increasing problem in obstetric practice; it has led to an increase in the risk of caesarean delivery, prolonged pregnancy and dysfunctional labour. It has been postulated that many of ... -
Decreased pulse pressure during hemodialysis is associated with improved 6-month outcomes
(Elsevier BV, 2009-11-01)Pulse pressure is a well established marker of vascular stiffness and is associated with increased mortality in hemodialysis patients. Here we sought to determine if a decrease in pulse pressure during hemodialysis was ... -

Deep carbon export from a southern ocean iron-fertilized diatom bloom
(Springer Nature, 2012-07-18)Fertilization of the ocean by adding iron compounds has induced diatom-dominated phytoplankton blooms accompanied by considerable carbon dioxide drawdown in the ocean surface layer. However, because the fate of bloom biomass ...
