Dielectric characterization of ex vivo ovine and human adrenal glands for microwave thermal ablation applications
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2021-01-15)Historically, adrenal glands diseases causing hypertension, such as Primary Aldosteronism (PA), have been treated through pharmacotherapy or surgical resection. Given the shortcomings of the available treatment options, ... -
Dielectric properties of bones: A potential indicator for osteoporosis
(National University of Ireland Galway, 2018-01-26)Osteoporosis is one of the major bone disease that results into bone fragility and fractures. Approximately 300,000 people over the age of 50 years suffer from osteoporosis in Ireland. Osteoporosis is mainly caused due ... -
Diet behavior change techniques in type 2 diabetes: A systematic review and meta-analysis
(American Diabetes Association, 2017-12)OBJECTIVE Dietary behavior is closely connected to type 2 diabetes. The purpose of this meta-analysis was to identify behavior change techniques (BCTs) and specific components of dietary interventions for patients with ... -
Different depth sand filters for laboratory treatment of synthetic wastewater with concentrations close to measured septic tank effluent
(2011)The objective of this study was to apply hydraulic and chemical oxygen demand (COD) loading rates at the upper limits of the design criteria for buried sand filters to test the sand filter depth design criteria. Over a ... -
Differential β3 and β1 integrin expression in bone marrow and cortical bone of estrogen deficient rats
(Wiley, 2015-08-12)Integrin-based (beta(3)) attachments to the extracellular matrix (ECM) on osteocyte cell processes have recently been proposed to play an important role in facilitating osteocyte mechanosensation. However, it is not yet ... -
Digital camera connectivity solutions using the picture transfer protocol (PTP)
(IEEE, 2002)Interconnectivity of digital camera with other devices is one of the main concerns of consumers and digital camera manufacturers. Interconnectivity features in digital cameras allow more consumer-friendly ... -
Digital elevation modelling of individual monuments from aerial photographs
(John Wiley & Sons, 1999)Digital elevation models (DEM) are crucial data products for a variety of geographic applications, and their generation directly from digitized stereopairs of vertical aerial photographs has recently been accomplished. ... -
Digital imaging services using PTP (picture transfer protocol)
(IEEE, 2002-06-20)Interconnectivity of digital cameras with other devices seems to be one of the main concerns of consumers and digital camera manufacturers. Interconnectivity features in digital cameras provide better usage of digital ... -
The digitalisation and virtual delivery of Lean Six Sigma Teaching in an Irish university during COVID-19
(Springer, Cham, 2022-01-01)This research discusses how lecturers in an Irish university transferred their classroom-based blended learning Lean Six Sigma modules to online delivery. The transfer from a practical classroom environment to an online ... -
