Advancing Science and Controlling the Misuse of Genetic Information in Employment and Insurance - Towards an Effective European Union Regulatory Framework
(2013-08-28)The science of genetic testing and related technology is rapidly advancing. Among other things, genetic testing technology may offer the prospect of being able to detect the onset of future disabilities. It also offers ... -
Advancing the dialogue between inner and outer empiricism.
(2008)In a recent contribution to New Ideas in Psychology, Seán Ó Nualláin draws out a distinction between inner and outer empiricism, and suggests that consciousness research can benefit from analysis in both directions, that ... -
Advantages and challenges of face-to-face and online methodologies: Researching adolescents experiences of nonterminal cancer in the family
(SAGE Publications, 2020)This case study provides an overview of a research study with adolescents experiencing maternal cancer. It explores the methodological successes and limitations to promote a critical understanding of carrying out sensitive ... -

(MDPI AG, 2017-12-13)A European placebo-controlled trial of antibiotic treatment for lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI) conducted in 16 primary care practices networks recruited participants between November 2007 and April 2010, and found ... -
Adverse events in healthcare: learning from mistakes
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2014-07-29)Large national reviews of patient charts estimate that approximately 10% of hospital admissions are associated with an adverse event (defined as an injury resulting in prolonged hospitalization, disability or death, caused ... -
Adverse events of fluoroquinolones vs. other antimicrobials prescribed in primary care: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials
(Elsevier, 2018-04-25)Background Fluoroquinolones (FQs) are second line antimicrobial agents. Once the decision to prescribe an antimicrobial is made, its choice should be based on both the benefits and harms. This systematic review quantifies ... -

(2013-03-20)Asylum seekers arriving in Ireland are accommodated under a system known as Direct Provision and Dispersal. Concerns have been raised since its inception in 2000 by NGOs, academics, health professionals and the international ... -
Aerosol analysis and forecast in the european centre for medium-range weather forecasts integrated forecast system: 3. evaluation by means of case studies
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2011-02-08)A near real-time system for assimilation and forecasts of aerosols, greenhouse and trace gases, extending the ECMWF Integrated Forecasting System (IFS), has been developed in the framework of the Global and regional ... -
Aerosol decadal trends – part 1: in-situ optical measurements at gaw and improve stations
(Copernicus GmbH, 2013-01-22)Currently many ground-based atmospheric stations include in-situ measurements of aerosol physical and optical properties, resulting in more than 20 long-term (> 10 yr) aerosol measurement sites in the Northern ... -
Aerosol decadal trends – part 2: in-situ aerosol particle number concentrations at gaw and actris stations
(Copernicus GmbH, 2013-01-22)We have analysed the trends of total aerosol particle number concentrations (N) measured at long-term measurement stations involved either in the Global Atmosphere Watch (GAW) and/or EU infrastructure project ACTRIS. The ... -
Aerosol direct radiative effects over the northwest atlantic, northwest pacific, and north indian oceans: estimates based on in-situ chemical and optical measurements and chemical transport modeling
(Copernicus GmbH, 2006-05-22)The largest uncertainty in the radiative forcing of climate change over the industrial era is that due to aerosols, a substantial fraction of which is the uncertainty associated with scattering and absorption of shortwave ... -
Aerosol distribution over europe: a model evaluation study with detailed aerosol microphysics
(Copernicus GmbH, 2008-03-17)This paper summarizes an evaluation of model simulations with a regional scale atmospheric climate-chemistry/aerosol model called REMOTE, which has been extended by a microphysical aerosol module. Model results over Europe ... -
