THE APPLICATION OF THE CONCEPT OF RESILIENCE IN AGING RESEARCH AND OLDER ADULT CARE: A FOCUS GROUP STUDY


The complex tibial organ of the New Zealand ground weta: sensory adaptations for vibrational signal detection

Abstract In orthopteran insects, a complex tibial organ has evolved to detect substrate vibrations and/or airborne sound.Species of New Zealand weta (Anostostomatidae) with tympanal ears on the foreleg tibia use this organ to communicate by sound, while in atympanate species (which communicate by substrate drumming) the organ is unstudied.We invest

Percutaneous Coronary Intervention via Distal Transradial Approach: Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Challenges

As a new approach for percutaneous coronary intervention, distal transradial approach (dTRA) is increasingly applied in clinical practice.Thus dTRA is superior to transradial artery approach in improving patient and surgeon comfort, reducing the incidence of complications and forearm arterial injuries, while it also has many limitations, such Vineg

Multistage Bilevel Planning Model of Energy Storage System in Urban Power Grid Considering Network Reconfiguration

The large-scale integration of renewable energy sources (RESs) and the rapid development of loads cause frequent transmission congestion in the urban power grid (UPG).Transmission system operators usually perform the high-voltage distribution network (HVDN) reconfiguration to mitigate the transmission congestion.However, as the loads and RESs chang
