Trajectory of macrotroponin in a community cohort
BACKGROUND: Cardiac troponin I (cTnI) is a biomarker for myocardial injury. However, macrotroponin, a complex of cTnI and endogenous cardiac troponin autoantibodies, may artefactually elevate cTnI levels with potential to mislead clinicians, leading to inappropriate investigation...

Transitioning from Degraded Peat to Paludiculture: Evidence-Based Roadmap for Research and Practice
Paludiculture, the sustainable productive use of wet and rewetted peat soils, offers a dual solution for preserving soil carbon and reducing greenhouse gas emissions whilst offering a form of income for landowners/farmers. However, establishing best practices for the transition t...

Mapping Upstream Strategies: Monitoring Policy Influence Using Interorganizational Network Analysis
Policy influence is produced through relationships among government agencies, civil society organizations, donors, international organizations, and other actors rather than through formal authority alone. Yet conventional monitoring systems often struggle to observe these upstrea...

Influence of Bond Coat Roughness on the Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of EB-PVD TBCs
The surface condition of the bond coat is an important factor governing the growth and microstructural development of electron-beam physical vapour deposition (EB-PVD) TBCs. In this study, 7 wt.% yttria-stabilised zirconia (7YSZ) coatings were deposited by EB-PVD on vapour-phase...
