This note provides an interim summary of the current recommendations of thePDF4LHC working group for the use of parton distribution functions (PDFs)and of PDF uncertainties at the LHC, for cross section and cross section uncer-tainty calculations. It also contains a succinct user guideto the computation ofPDFs, uncertainties and correlations using available PDF sets.A companion note (the PDF4LHC
This paper presents a symbol time offset estimator for coherent OFDM systems. This estimator exploits both the redundancy in the cyclic prefix and the pilot symbols used for channel estimation. The estimator is robust against frequency offsets and is suitable for use in dispersive channels. We base the estimator on the ML estimator for the AWGN channel. Simulations of an example system indicate a

Thesis Purpose: The objective of this study is to research how vocal green companies can use green claims in online marketing advertisement text with the aim to recommend ways in which they can positively impact the purchase intention of environmentally friendly fashion products. Methodology: In this quantitative study, the data is analysed through correlations, after which significant difference
This article evaluates the current gaps around the impact of post-manufacturing processes on the product qualities of protein-based biologics, with a focus on user centricity. It includes the evaluation of the regulatory guidance available, describes a collection of scientific literature and case studies to showcase the impact of post-manufacturing stresses on product and dosing solution quality.
In seasonally variable environments, phenotypic plasticity in phenology may be critical for adaptation to fluctuating environmental conditions. Using an 18-generation longitudinal dataset from natural damselfly populations, we show that phenology has strongly advanced. Individual fitness data suggest this is likely an adaptive response towards a temperature-dependent optimum. A laboratory experime
With the growing possibilities in genetic testing, the number of genetic disorders associated with dystonia has constantly increased over the last few years. Accurate phenotyping is crucial to guide and interpret genetic analyses in the search for an etiological diagnosis. Although eye movements examination has proven a valuable tool in the assessment of patients with inherited movement disorders
Rates of molecular, phenotypic, and lineage diversification typically scale negatively with time interval of measurement, raising longstanding questions about time-dependency of evolutionary processes. These patterns and their potential meaning have recently re-entered evolutionary discussions. In this Perspective, we revisit the general challenges in interpreting rate–time relationships. Much app
A major interest in the gall-inducing thrips of Australia began with the discovery that some species have eusocial colonies. The origin of social castes remains one of the outstanding questions in evolutionary biology. The inference of the ancestral stage from study of solitary species is important to understanding the evolutionary history of semiochemicals in social species. Here we investigated
A major concern for contemporary organizations is how to gain support of business processes from standardized software package such as enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems. To gain support adoption of such standardized information and communication technologies (ICTs) demands that either the system is adjusted to existing business processes or that business processes are adjusted to the syst
Lynch syndrome (LS) is an autosomal dominant syndrome that predisposes individuals to development of cancers early in life. These cancers are mainly the following: colorectal, endometrial, ovarian, small intestine, stomach and urinary tract cancers. LS is caused by germline mutations in DNA mismatch repair genes (MMR), mostly MLH1 and MSH2, which are responsible for more than 85% of known germline
This paper complements the other papers in the Lancet Series on midwifery by documenting the experience of low-income and middle-income countries that deployed midwives as one of the core constituents of their strategy to improve maternal and newborn health. It examines the constellation of various diverse health-system strengthening interventions deployed by Burkina Faso, Cambodia, Indonesia, and
Wheat (Triticum spp.) histones H1, H2, H3, and H4 were extracted, and H1 was further purified. The effect of these histones on specific fungi that may or may not be pathogenic to wheat was determined. These fungi included Aspergillus flavus, Aspergillus fumigatus, Aspergillus niger, Fusarium oxysporum, Fusarium verticillioides, Fusarium solani, Fusarium graminearum, Penicillium digitatum, Penicill
The concept of chronic critical limb ischaemia (CLI) emerged late in the history of peripheral arterial occlusive disease (PAOD). The historical background and changing definitions of CLI over the last decades are important to know in order to understand why epidemiologic data are so difficult to compare between articles and over time. The prevalence of CLI is probably very high and largely undere
Ulcerated diabetic foot is a complex problem. Ischaemia, neuropathy and infection are the three pathological components that lead to diabetic foot complications, and they frequently occur together as an aetiologic triad. Neuropathy and ischaemia are the initiating factors, most often together as neuroischaemia, whereas infection is mostly a consequence. The role of peripheral arterial disease in d
Objective This study assessed pesticide exposure of children in rural Nicaragua in relation to parental pesticide use, from around conception to current school age, as part of an epidemiological evaluation of neurodevelopment effects. Methods We included 132 children whose parents were subsistence farmers or plantation workers, or had an agricultural history. As proxies for children's long-term ex
The ERP market has been changing since the implementation peaks observed around Y2K, when most of the high-end adopters take their chance of substituting legacy systems while implementing integrated management. This adoption movement from bigger companies created a reaction on the Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) ERP market: on the vendor side, it was necessary to find new market segments
