Materials and methods: Semen parameters (total sperm count, concentration, motility, and morphology) and sperm DNA fragmentation
The impact of lecture recordings on HE student approaches to learning Note-taking as a study-skill amongst students in Higher Education (HE) is acknowledged as a fundamental component of academic success. Intrinsic factors such as cognitive capacity, motivation and epistemological beliefs effect note-taking quantity and quality (e.g. Kiewra, 1985). However, this study looks at the extrinsic influe
Aim: This study investigates how often bowel continuity was restored after anastomotic leakage in anterior resection for rectal cancer and assesses the clinical factors associated with permanent stoma.

In the recent project BENCHOP–the BENCHmarking project in Option Pricing we found that Stochastic and Local Volatility problems were particularly challenging. Here we continue the effort by introducing a set of benchmark problems for this type of problems. Eight different methods targeted for the Stochastic Differential Equation (SDE) formulation and the Partial Differential Equation (PDE) formula
