Dysregulation of inhibitory control in young adult binge drinkers: Neuroimaging evidence of gender differences associated with misusing alcohol to cope with negative affect Open
Impaired inhibitory control contributes to compulsive drinking and increased risk of alcohol misuse. While the neural underpinnings of inhibitory control have been well documented, imaging evidence in binge drinkers (BDs) is scarce. Notabl…

<i>De Novo</i> Design of Miniprotein Inhibitors of Bacterial Adhesins Open
The rise of multidrug-resistant bacterial infections necessitates the discovery of novel antimicrobial strategies. Here, we show that protein design provides a generalizable means of generating new antimicrobials by neutralizing the functi…

Comparison of PLTS-2000 and the magnetic field fluctuation thermometer at LNE-Cnam Open
This paper presents a comparison between the provisional low-temperature scale of 2000 (PLTS-2000) and the magnetic field fluctuation thermometer (MFFT) scales, as realized at LNE-Cnam. The comparison was carried out using three different …

Practical realisation of the kelvin by Johnson noise thermometry Open
Johnson noise thermometry (JNT) is a purely electronic method of thermodynamic thermometry. In primary JNT, the temperature is inferred from a comparison of the Johnson noise voltage of a resistor at the unknown temperature with a pseudo-r…

Cortical GABA Levels Are Reduced in Post-Acute COVID-19 Syndrome Open
After recovering from the acute COVID-19 illness, a substantial proportion of people continue experiencing post-acute sequelae of COVID-19 (PASC), also termed “long COVID”. Their quality of life is adversely impacted by persistent cognitiv…

The Purposes of Measurement Uncertainty Open
It is now more than 40 years since the BIPM outlined the current harmonised approach to the expression of uncertainty in measurement, and 30 years since the publication of the Guide to the Expression of Uncertainty in Measurement. Despite …

Neural indices of multimodal sensory and autonomic hyperexcitability in fibromyalgia Open
Fibromyalgia (FM) is characterized by chronic widespread musculoskeletal pain and psychological distress. Research suggests people with FM experience increased somatosensory sensitization which generalizes to other sensory modalities and m…

Automatic detection of sweep-meshable volumes Open
A method of and software for automatically determining whether a mesh can be generated by sweeping for a representation of a geometric solid comprising: classifying surface mesh schemes for surfaces of the representation locally using surf…

Alterations of theta power and synchrony during encoding in young adult binge drinkers: Subsequent memory effects associated with retrieval after 48 h and 6 months Open
Introduction Young emerging adults commonly engage in binge drinking which is associated with a range of neurocognitive deficits, including memory impairments. However, evidence on neural oscillations mediating episodic memory in this popu…

2022 Update for the Differences Between Thermodynamic Temperature and ITS-90 Below 335 K Open
In 2011, a working group of the Consultative Committee for Thermometry published their best estimates of the differences between the thermodynamic temperature T and its approximation (T90), the temperature according to the International Te…

The Boltzmann project Open
The International Committee for Weights and Measures (CIPM), at its meeting in October 2017, followed the recommendation of the Consultative Committee for Units (CCU) on the redefinition of the kilogram, ampere, kelvin and mole. For the re…

An improved electronic determination of the Boltzmann constant by Johnson noise thermometry Open
Recent measurements using acoustic gas thermometry have determined the value of the Boltzmann constant, k, with a relative uncertainty less than 1 × 10-6. These results have been supported by a measurement with a relative uncertainty of 1.…

The kelvin redefinition and its <i>mise en pratique</i> Open
In 2018, it is expected that there will be a major revision of the International System of Units (SI) which will result in all of the seven base units being defined by fixing the values of certain atomic or fundamental constants. As part o…
