  1. Public perceptions of diabetes, healthy living and conversational agents in Singapore: A needs assessment 

    Tudor Car, Lorainne; Dhinagaran, Dhakshenya A.; Thirunavukkarasu, Sathish; et al. (2021)
    Journal of Medical Internet Research (JMIR) Preprints
    Background: The incidence of chronic diseases such as type 2 diabetes is on the rise in countries worldwide, including Singapore. Health professional-delivered healthy lifestyle interventions have been shown to prevent type 2 diabetes. Yet ongoing personalised guidance from health professionals is not feasible or affordable at the population level. Novel digital interventions delivered using mobile technology such as conversational agents ...

  2. Policy Instruments to Reduce Carbon Emissions From Road Transport 

    Cerruti, Davide; Huse, Cristian (2021)
    International Encyclopedia of Transportation ~ International Encyclopedia of Transportation
    This paper surveys policy instruments aiming at reducing carbon emissions from road transport. We present the basic economic framework used to evaluate environmental policy instruments and discuss the challenges and limitations it faces, which are important enough to justify departures from the first-best instrument (Pigouvian tax). We then discuss a number of policy instruments, including fuel and mileage taxes, standards, different forms ...

    Chemistry of Materials
    Mixed-valent metal-halides containing ns2 lone pairs may exhibit intense visible absorption, while zero-dimensional (0D) ns2-based metal-chlorides are generally colorless but have demonstrated promising optoelectronic properties suitable for thermometry and radiation detection. Here, we report solvothermally synthesized mixed-valent 0D metal-halides Rb23BiIIIxSbIII7-xSbV2Cl54 (0 ≤ x ≤ 7). Rb23SbIII7SbV2Cl54 crystallizes in an orthorhombic ...

  4. Spatio-temporal characterization of fracture healing patterns and assessment of biomaterials by time-lapsed in vivo micro-computed tomography 

    Wehrle E.; Tourolle Né Betts D.C.; Kuhn G.A.; et al. (2021)
    Scientific Reports
    Thorough preclinical evaluation of functionalized biomaterials for treatment of large bone defects is essential prior to clinical application. Using in vivo micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) and mouse femoral defect models with different defect sizes, we were able to detect spatio-temporal healing patterns indicative of physiological and impaired healing in three defect sub-volumes and the adjacent cortex. The time-lapsed in vivo ...

  5. Paramagnetic Solid-State NMR to Localize the Metal-Ion Cofactor in an Oligomeric DnaB Helicase 

    Zehnder J.; Cadalbert R.; Terradot L.; et al. (2021)
    Chemistry - A European Journal
    Paramagnetic metal ions can be inserted into ATP-fueled motor proteins by exchanging the diamagnetic Mg cofactor with Mn or Co . Then, paramagnetic relaxation enhancement (PRE) or pseudo-contact shifts (PCSs) can be measured to report on the localization of the metal ion within the protein. We determine the metal position in the oligomeric bacterial DnaB helicase from Helicobacter pylori complexed with the transition-state ATP-analogue ...
