Behind the Paper
The real stories behind the latest research papers, from conception to publication, the highs and the lows
How can we reduce the carbon footprint of cataract surgery pathways?
Our recently published paper considers the carbon saving that can be made by looking at key elements of an idealised patient pathway for cataract surgery and comparing it to current practice in England (1).
Does glandular fever increase the risk of inflammatory bowel disease?
Associations between infectious mononucleosis and autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis have previously been identified. This is the first study exploring whether hospitalisation with infectious mononucleosis increases the risk of developing inflammatory bowel disease.
Integration of geospatial technologies with multiple regression model for urban land use land cover change analysis and its impact on land surface temperature in Jimma City, southwestern Ethiopia
The planet earth is very dynamic due to continuous interaction with human beings. Human beings overexploit the natural resources for the sake of well-being. The overexploitation of natural resources leads to environmental problems.
Benchmarking algorithms for single-cell multi-omics prediction and integration
totalVI and scArches excelled in predicting protein abundance, while LS_Lab led in predicting chromatin accessibility. Seurat, MOJITOO, and scAI performed best in vertical integration, whereas totalVI and UINMF were superior in horizontal and mosaic integration.
Fairness preferences in young children vary depending on the gender composition of the group
A child's attitude to what is fair or not in a social interaction depends on their gender as well as the gender of the other child
Readout error mitigated quantum state tomography tested on superconducting qubits
Noise in quantum systems can negate any potential benefits they have over classical computers. Here, we explore how one can overcome the growing issue of readout errors in a superconducting qubit device.
