A dialogical action research approach to innovation as organisational change.
(Action in Language, Organisations and Information Systems (ALOIS), 2008-05)This paper argues that dialogical action research (AR) recently proposed by Mårtensson & Lee, provides a novel framework for both relevant and rigorous collaboration between academics and practitioners. The work is presented ... -
Dielectric properties of bones for the monitoring of osteoporosis
(Springer, 2018-08-29)Osteoporosis is one of the most common diseases that leads to bone fractures. Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry is currently employed to measure the bone mineral density and to diagnose osteoporosis. Alternatively, the ... -
Dietary vegetable oils do not alter the intestine transcriptome of gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata), but modulate the transcriptomic response to infection with Enteromyxum leei
(BioMed Central, 2012)Background: Studies conducted with gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata L.) have determined the maximum dietary replacement of fish meal and oil without compromising growth or product quality. The present study aimed to analyze ... -
Differential expression of the metalloproteinase MMP3 and the a5 integrin subunit in human myometrium at labour
(Oxford University Press, 2007-09-13)Extensive tissue remodelling occurs in the human myometrium before, during and after parturition. The aim of this study was to investigate the expression of two tissue remodelling molecules, matrix metalloproteinase 3 ... -
Differential release of high mannose structural isoforms by fungal and bacterial endo-β-N-acetylglucosaminidases
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2012-02-28)Endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidases (ENGases) are widely used to remove N-linked oligosaccharides from glycoproteins for glycomic and proteomic studies and biopharmaceutical processes. Although several ENGases are widely ... -
Differentiation of vascular stem cells contributes to ectopic calcification of atherosclerotic plaque
(Wiley, 2016-02-27)The cellular and molecular basis of vascular calcification (VC) in atherosclerosis is not fully understood. Here, we investigate role of resident/circulating progenitor cells in VC and contribution of inflammatory plaque ... -
The diffusion of WOZ: expanding the topology of IS innovations
(Palgrave Macmillan, 2006-12-05)The growth and diffusion of self-service technology (SST) over the last decade has resulted in an increasing number of business and government transactions being completed without human assistance. One innovation in this ... -
DigiMe - Ubiquitous Search and Browsing for Digital Libraries
(IEEE, 2006)Vast sources of information, such as the Internet are difficult to browse and/or search through. Existing tools can be sometimes frustrating for many people. So far a number of techniques have been proposed to deliver ... -
DING! Dataset Ranking using Formal Descriptions
(2009)Considering that thousands if not millions of linked datasets will be published soon, we motivate in this paper the need for an efficient and effective way to rank interlinked datasets based on formal descriptions of their ... -
Discovering Domain-Specific Public SPARQL Endpoints: A Life-Sciences Use-Case
(2014)A significant portion of the LOD cloud consists of Life Sciences data sets. The LOD cloud contains billions of clinical facts linked together forming an interlinked Web of Clinical Data . However, tools for new publishers ... -
Discovering Domain-Specific Public SPARQL Endpoints: A Life-Sciences Use-Case
(2014)[no abstract available] -
Discovering protein drug targets using knowledge graph embeddings
(Oxford University Press, 2019-08-01)Motivation Computational approaches for predicting drug-target interactions (DTIs) can provide valuable insights into the drug mechanism of action. DTI predictions can help to quickly identify new promising (on-target) ... -
Discovery of Optimized Web Service Configurations Using a Hybrid Semantic and Statistical Approach
(IEEE, 2009)We present a Semantic Optimized Service Discovery (Se- mOSD) approach capable of handling Web service search requests on a fine-grained level of detail where we augment semantic service descriptions with statistically built ... -
Dispersal mode and assessments of recovery on the shores of Gruinard, the 'anthrax island'.
(Springer Verlag, 2008)Formaldehyde run-off was an unintended impact of the anthrax decontamination procedure on the island of Gruinard. The death of intertidal organisms was observed where formaldehyde reached the shore during 1986. The extent ... -
Disruption of microRNA Biogenesis Confers Resistance to ER Stress-Induced Cell Death Upstream of the Mitochondrion
(2013)Global downregulation of microRNAs (miRNAs) is a common feature of human tumors and has been shown to enhance cancer progression. Several components of the miRNA biogenesis machinery (XPO5, DICER and TRBP) have been shown ... -
A Distributed Semantic Microblogging Platform
(2008)The application showcases the ideas of a distributed, Semantic-Web enabled micro blogging architecture, providing a way to leverage this new Web 2.0 practice to the Semantic Web. -
Diversity and bioactivity of fungi associated with the marine sea cucumber Holothuria poli: disclosing the strains potential for biomedical applications
(Society for Applied Microbiology (SfAM), 2020-04-10)Aims: Identification of the mycobiota associated to the marine echinoderm Holothuria poli and investigation of cytotoxic and pro-osteogenic potential of isolated strains. Methods and results: Fungal strains were isolated ... -
dlvhex-sparql: A SPARQL-compliant query engine based on dlvhex
(CEUR, 2007)This paper describes the dlvhex SPARQL plugin, a query processor for the upcoming Semantic Web query language standard by W3C. We report on the implementation of this languages using dlvhex, a flexible plugin system ... -
DNA mediated chromatin pull-down for the study of chromatin replication
(2011)Chromatin replication involves duplicating DNA while maintaining epigenetic information. These processes are critical for genome stability and for preserving cell-type identity. Here we describe a simple experimental ... -
Do city dashboards make sense? Conceptualising user experiences and challenges in using city dashboards. A case study
(Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), 2021-06-09)City dashboards present information about a city to a broad audience with some thought given as to how some of these audiences might understand the information. However, little research has looked at how ’citizens’ make ...
