Waist circumference provides an indication of numerous cardiometabolic risk factors in adults with cerebral palsy.
(2014)OBJECTIVE: To report the prevalence of cardiometabolic risk factors in a cohort of adults with cerebral palsy (CP) and to investigate the ability of anthropometric measures to predict these factors. DESIGN: Cross-sectional ... -
Waiting for health care: a concept analysis
(2008)AIM: This paper is a report of an analysis of the concept of waiting for health care from the client's perspective. BACKGROUND: Waiting is commonplace in many areas of health care and has become a topical and ... -
Walking, thinking, and talking An exploration of the lived experiences and hidden geographies of poverty using walking as a participatory arts methodology.
(School of Social Work & Social Policy, TCD, 2023) -
Wall slip of bubbles in foams
(American Institute of Physics, 2006)We present a computational analysis of the flow of liquid foam along a smooth wall, as encountered in the transport of foams in vessels and pipes. We concentrate on the slip of the bubbles at the wall and present some ... -
Wannier-function-based constrained DFT with nonorthogonality-correcting Pulay forces in application to the reorganization effects in graphene-adsorbed pentacene
(2018)Pulay terms arise in the Hellmann-Feynman forces in electronic-structure calculations when one employs a basis set made of localized orbitals that move with their host atoms. If the total energy of the system depends on a ... -
Wanted Dead or Alive: Skeletal Structure Alteration of Cold-Water Coral Desmophyllum pertusum (Lophelia pertusa) from Anthropogenic Stressors
(2023)Ocean acidification (OA) has provoked changes in the carbonate saturation state that may alter the formation and structural biomineralisation of calcium carbonate exoskeletons for marine organisms. Biomineral production ... -
The Warburg effect then and now: From cancer to inflammatory diseases
(2013)Inflammatory immune cells, when activated, display much the same metabolic profile as a glycolytic tumor cell. This involves a shift in metabolism away from oxidative phosphorylation towards aerobic glycolysis, a phenomenon ... -
Was the carver happy while he was about it? Trinity's Museum Building and the Ruskinian principle of happiness
(Liverpool University Press, 2021-02)The Museum Building of Trinity College Dublin (1853-7), by Deane, Son & Woodward, is a seminal work of Ruskinian Gothic architecture, influencing a generation of British and Irish architects, and revolutionising Victorian ... -
Was the latest Devonian glaciation a multiple event? New palynological evidence from Bolivia
(2011)Assemblages of acritarchs, prasinophytes, and miospores were recovered from the uppermost Iquiri and lower portion of the Itacua formations in southeast Bolivia. Analysis of the diverse and somewhat abundant well-preserved ... -
Water content determinations for peat and other organic soils using the oven-drying method
(2014)There has been much debate in literature over the past 60 years regarding an appropriate oven-drying temperature for water content determinations on peat and other organic soils. For inorganic soils, the water content is ... -
Water fluoridation, dentition status and bone health of older people in Ireland
(2015)Objective To examine some of the potential benefits and risks of water fluoridation for older adults. Methods This study used ‘The Irish Longitudinal Study on Ageing’, to access a nationally representative sample ... -
Water quality in Irish karst aquifers

Water vapor on Betelgeuse as revealed by TEXES high-resolution 12 micron spectra
(American Astronomical Society, 2006)The outer atmosphere of the M supergiant Betelgeuse is puzzling. Published observations of different kinds have shed light on different aspects of the atmosphere, but no unified picture has emerged. They have shown, for ... -
Water vapor on supergiants. The 12 micron TEXES spectra of ? Cephei
(American Astronomical Society, 2006)Several recent papers have argued for warm, semidetached, molecular layers surrounding red giant and supergiant stars, a concept known as a MOLsphere. Spectroscopic and interferometric analyses have often corroborated this ... -
Water waves and Integrability
(Royal Society, 2007)The Euler?s equations describe the motion of inviscid fluid. In the case of shallow water, when a perturbative asymtotic expansion of the Euler?s equations is taken (to a certain order of smallness of the scale parameters), ... -
Water-soluble, neutral 3,5-diformyl-BODIPY with extended fluorescence lifetime in a self-healable chitosan hydrogel
(2017)3,5-Diformyl-4,4-difluoro-4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-s-indacene (3,5-diformyl-BODIPY) can be used as an efficient biofunctional cross-linker to generate a new class of chitosan-based hydrogels with fluorescence resonance energy ... -
WaterCom: Connecting research configurations with practical deployments: A multilevel, multipurpose underwater communications test platform
(ACM, 2016)This paper describes the ongoing evolution of the Water-Com framework developed as part of the NSF funded Ocean-TUNE CRI project. A particular challenge for connecting global researchers and the public with remote, autonomous ... -
Watermarking digital images for copyright protection
(IEE, 1996)A watermark is an invisible mark placed on an image that is designed to identify both the source of an image as well as its intended recipient. The authors present an overview of watermarking techniques and demonstrate a ...
