Family support and the media in Ireland: Newspaper content analysis 2014–2017
(Routledge, 2021-01-15)
The objective of this paper is to inform a critical analysis of how the media portray family support in Ireland. Findings of a content analysis carried out on national and regional Irish newspapers between 2014 and 2017 ...
Human monocyte subset distinctions and function: Insights from gene expression analysis
(Frontiers Media, 2020-06-04)
Monocytes are a highly plastic innate immune cell population that displays significant heterogeneity within the circulation. Distinct patterns of surface marker expression have become accepted as a basis for distinguishing ...
Characterization of the ‘White’ appearing clots that cause acute ischemic stroke
(Elsevier, 2021-09-28)
Objectives
Most clots retrieved from patients with acute ischemic stroke are ‘red’ in color. ‘White’ clots represent a less common entity and their histological composition is less known. Our aim was to investigate the ...
Histological evaluation of acute ischemic stroke thrombi may indicate the occurrence of vessel wall injury during mechanical thrombectomy
(BMJ Publishing Group, 2021-05-11)
Background Several animal studies have demonstrated that mechanical thrombectomy (MT) for acute ischemic stroke (AIS) may cause vessel wall injury (VWI). However, the histological changes in human cerebral arteries following ...
Bioactive potential of natural biomaterials: identification, retention and assessment of biological properties
(Springer Nature, 2021-03-19)
Biomaterials have had an increasingly important role in recent decades, in biomedical device design and the development of tissue engineering solutions for cell delivery, drug delivery, device integration, tissue replacement, ...
TinyML benchmark: Executing fully connected neural networks on commodity microcontrollers
(National University of Ireland Galway, 2021-06-20)
Recent advancements in the field of ultra-low-power
machine learning (TinyML) promises to unlock an entirely new
class of edge applications. However, continued progress is restrained by the lack of benchmarking Machine ...
SRAM optimized porting and execution of machine learning classifiers on MCU-based IoT devices: Demo abstract
(Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), 2021-05-19)
With the introduction of edge analytics, IoT devices are becoming smarter and ready for AI applications. However, any increase in the training data results in a linear increase in the space complexity of the trained Machine ...
Complementary transcriptomic and proteomic analyses reveal the cellular and molecular processes that drive growth and development of Fasciola hepatica in the host liver
(BMC, 2021-01-11)
Background
The major pathogenesis associated with Fasciola hepatica infection results from the extensive tissue damage caused by the tunnelling and feeding activity of immature flukes during their migration, growth and ...
Biochemical and cellular characterisation of the Plasmodium falciparum M1 alanyl aminopeptidase (Pf M1AAP) and M17 leucyl aminopeptidase (Pf M17LAP)
(Nature Research, 2021-02-03)
The Plasmodium falciparum M1 alanyl aminopeptidase and M17 leucyl aminopeptidase, PfM1AAP and PfM17LAP, are potential targets for novel anti-malarial drug development. Inhibitors of these aminopeptidases have been shown ...
Electric field stimulation for tissue engineering applications
(BMC (part of Springer Nature), 2021-01-05)
Electric fields are involved in numerous physiological processes, including directional embryonic development and wound healing following injury. To study these processes in vitro and/or to harness electric field stimulation ...
